My shell isn't as hard as it seems

When it'll stop, when it'll cede, when it'll bleed

See that amazing brooch? One of my favorite bloggers, Liliana Barrs, made it and it comes in a bunch of other colors and it's pretty freaking awesome. Owls! Go to her store on the marketplace and snag it.

How cute are those shoes from Tokidoki? That bow is soo freaking precious.



I'm also rocking blood red lips on a Pink Fuel skin thanks to the gorgeous lipstick layer from Cheap Makeup. The lips have a super cute shape and the color is really rich. I love the eye makeups and lashes from there as well.

Is there anything she can't do?

I was going through my inventory digging for something to wear, and I noticed I had a TON of stuff from Atomic. That didn't surprise me, cause I pretty much love everything Ivy Graves does. She makes EVERYTHING, and does a phenomenal job at it. I can go into her store and walk out with everything I need. Everything she touches is amazing. I'd like to Hi5 her, but her profile scares me. Anyway, thanks Miss I. Graves for making stellar stuff! -Ap

Seasoning

Yes, this is anouther post for The Season Hunt. Typically I don't do hunts. The reasoning behind that is I suck at hunts in a heinous way, and generally hunt prizes aren't things I have to have. When I heard about this particular hunt. I didn't even investigate ... until I heard who the organizer was.





I don't know Ms. Hallie Galli personally, but I do know she appreciates things of quality. So, I followed the link to the blog ... when I took a look at the store list for the hunt I was sold. I didn't even need photo proof.





I was worried I wouldn't be able to find anything since I suck at finding hidden objects, I'm impatient, and there wasn't a hint list for the hunt. However, I found all of the items I wanted, and was only entirely stumped by two stores.





I cannot stress enough how much great shit is in this hunt! If you like free quality stuff ... this hunt is your friend! It's definitely worth the time! -Ap

Abode - the Rico

Aya Liotta is releasing a new home at -abode- and these occasions are always really exciting for me. This one has an urban feel to it outside, but still retains a really cozy-ish family feel inside.



The house has 252 prims, 2 bedrooms and a bonus room. I made the bonus room into a game room. With a beer pong table. Don't judge me!



RUN! Buy this house now or soonish. The regular sale price is L$1000 but will have a special new release price of L$500 until Tuesday.



My favorite room is one of the bedrooms, which are both upstairs. This one bedroom has a sitting room or bathroom. Anyway, it has a seperate section. Check out the demo at the back of the store to see what I mean because the picture probably doesn't capture it very well.

Magic Hours

I'm terrible at accessorizing. But what better accessory than a cute boy? In this case, I've pimped out my male alt for some blog post awesomeness.

Ari is wearing the 50 Linden Friday jacket from *FIR & MNA*. This jacket reminded me that I needed to dust off my malt. SO here he is in all his malty glory. He's wearing jeans from Adjunct because for some reason, men's clothes don't always come in all appropriate layers like ladies' clothing does in SL.



I've decked Aurelia out in one of the new skirts from Whippet & Buck. It comes in 5 other colors (6 total) at L$100 each or the assorted flavors pack for L$300. Buy the multipack. Duh! That's an awesome deal.

She's also wearing the new shoes from Kookie. I prefer flats, but these are just so cute and the quality that we all expect from Kookie.



So there's this boy (not pictured) who picks on me and makes me mad and keeps me up past my bedtime and makes me smile. That's all.

YES, it's another fall-ish post. With more leaves. And 100% more pumpkins. And yes, I'm still jealous. Damn this latitude and its proximity to the Tropic of Cancer!

I'm kind of in love with the new release from Whippet & Buck. I LOVE THIS SKIRT. We've seen it before as a 50 Linden Friday special and there's a purple one as the Seasons Hunt prize. Now they've released it in various colors. So you can collect 'em all. Like Pokemon.

The boots. Most of us are familiar with the Armada boots from a million 50 Linden Fridayses ago. Well, now they're available in a LONG version and they're pretty fantastic.
