Maitreya Magic

The only thing worse than taking a vacation from SL and needing to shop everywhere to catch up on all the releases you missed is more new releases. But, I have to say that the Maitreya new releases are definately not a bad thing, they are amazing and pure magic. I rarely buy the colors that are on display but I fell in love and had to buy it. The colors complimented each other so nicely. I paired it with an old favorite pair of jeans from League which have remained some of my most worn jeans for quite some time.

And this outfit brings an end to my Valentine's Day outfits. I survived the entire day without wearing red or pink. I urge everyone to go and spend some $ on something they love.

Soft in Brown

This sweater looked so soft and comfy that I decided to soften all the pictures as well. I've been completely addicted to Ce Cubic Effect lately. Now more than ever. They have perfected the knit texture in my opinion, and I'm such a huge fan of sculpted clothing. I am also in love with the new skins from Adam N Eve. Sachi sent me some demos just to tempt me, probably because she knows how weak I am. And, of course... I ran over and bought some. They are absolutely beautiful.

Food Drives are Hot!

This post is less about fashion and more about charity. My complete outfit was inspired when I volunteered at a food frive to help replenish the shelters that are currently caring for those affected by the devastation of Hurricane Ike. Yes, for those lucky enough to have homes left standing there are still homes without power, and I must tell you that while there was a "cold front" that came through it is still quite hot. I visited the New Orleans and Galveston SIMs in SL when taking the pictures of this outfit. Two places I hold dear in my heart which have suffered great tragedies in the past few years.

I urge all of you to help others during this time. Volunteer time or donate to an organization that helps those in need. Please remember the "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you" motto. Remember that we are all one country, and we are also one world. We are each other's neighbors and friends.

We are all made of stars...

I have been forcing myself to workout lately so I decided that Sugar needed to as well. The first image that came to mind was Flashdance, one of my favorite movies of all time. I guess I'll call this outfit 80s chic. I started with the super cute mini dress in black from CE Cubic Effect, it's super short so I always see myself wearing leggings underneath. but I love sculpty clothing. I decided to cover up a little with the Mini Hood Jacket from Fishy Strawberry. I love this store, lots of super cute items and I even won an item from the lucky chair the moment I stepped foot in the store. My leggings from bijou have really cute stars on the thighs that match my star earrings from 69 perfectly. I finished off the outfit with the biggest bag in my inventory from Armidi Gisaci. (Ok I lie, I also have the pink flamingo bag from Royal Blue that is huge but I'm saving that for something else) The bomber tail hair from Shop Seu is some of the best 80s style hair I have seen in SL. And you can edit the textures on the hair tie balls so I can match any outfit you're wearing. Good Stuff. I'm definately Pretty in Pink, and green, and black. :-)
Ok Ladies.. After all this working out... "I Want Candy!"
