Surrounded by Cuteness

OHai! So, I don't usually buy cute things for my avatar, cuz well, I just can't pull off "cute" as a general rule, (I pride myself on having a permanent scowl on my face - it's more intimidating *snarls*) BUT I came across so many adorable things this week, I just had to cave.

It all started when I found the most ADORBS starry blush at The Skin Fair 2014, from Adore&Abhor. There's 11 blushes in the pack, with & without stars, and its FREE! Then I came across the Harrah dress from coldLogic. It's available in 8 colors, and the style makes it perfect for spring! Next was the March group gift from Moon. A totally cute hair, in a bubblegum pink tone called "Pritty in Pink". There's a L$200 join fee, but you can also buy this color in the "Ombre Dolly" pack, if you'd prefer. (Although I recommend you join the group, as they have some fabulous hairs!) The final straw was when I visited The Dressing Room Fusion today. A new round just started, and they have a LOT of great stuff! I'm a HUGE Essences fan, and she has 3 new skins available for only L$70 each. One, of which, I knew would go great with my new dress. And when I found the rainbow headband by pr!tty during my trip, I knew that was the perfect final accessory for my "cute" theme.

For my photo scene, I decided to make use of the awesomely adorable sheep from d-lab, which was in the Fifty Linden Friday round for this week. They come in 2 tones, and have 4 variations in each pack - one of which is animated! They also have built in poses, so you can sit on them. SO CUTE! And then I added 3 items from my lovely friend Andel Rhiadra, owner of A.D.D. Andel! - Hanging Wire Hearts, String Lights, and Party Balloons which you can find at the Adore&Abhor Anniversary event.
I don't know, but for somebody that can't pull off cute, I think it turned out pretty well! :D See you next time! <3

Last Hurrah: Chic2

Chic2 will be ending on the 24th.   Now is a great time to hit it one last time and make sure you didn't miss anything!  RL has been jam-packed and SL is about as hectic as it's ever been.  I'm sure many of you can empathize -- sometimes it's rather impossible to get a few free minutes to accomplish the tasks you intended to do when you logged in.   My friends, Lynndia and Zazzy, visited me to show off their new avatars, so here we are in a family portrait.  I was completely amazed by the new mesh deer avatar by Water Horse and the beagle by Happy Mood is about as cute as it can be.

Most of the items in the photos can be found at Chic2.  I adore BENT's Country Chic Barn prop.  There are 10 built in animations, all adjustable.  I could have goofed around with this prop all day.  I loved JustB when the store had an inworld presence and I've been thrilled to see her work again at recent CHIC Management events.  The new velvet pants are available in standard sizes and hopefully, she will add them to her Marketplace collection after the end of the event. [A]renesmee is a new store to me and her adorable mesh vests added a nice touch of casual chic.  In the photo just above, is Zenith's mesh maxi dress in an interesting brocade.  The prim belt attaches separately so you can adjust the placement to your shape. Chloe has some adorable HoneyComb jewelry at Chic2 and will be releasing a full line at Vintage Fair. I look forward to it.  Wasabi Pills released Anais 2 for Chic 2 and is unponied version of one of my all-time favorite releases from her!

Izzie Button is one of those designers that can do about anything.  Her beautiful Anne dresses for Chic2 are available in 6 soft pastels that are so perfect for warm summer days. Pomme d' Amour's Birds & Bees hair for Chic2 has a jauntily tipped fedora in happy tropical colors so I had to add the Parrot Necklace from [trs] that is exclusively available at the Black Market.  The skin in all the photos is from Essences and also available at Chic2.  The new Rowena skin is available in 5 tones and includes tattoo'd cleavage, freckles, moles and eyelashes.  Happy Birthday CHIC, one last time!

Almost everything I am wearing is available exclusively at the CHIC2 event which ends on the 24th.  Most items will likely be released at the creator's main store after the event ends, though the pricing could vary.  I am not going to note each item individually as I just noted it above in the text.
