Modavia & The Secret Store

Modavia's inworld group has reached 5,000 members and The Secret Store was kind enough to give the FrouFrou dress in an exclusive color to the group to mark the occasion.  There are several links to great gifts in the group that is free to join!  Search Modavia Fashion Marketing.

I am loving Cupcake's Cecile skin which is still out in the Copper tone for 50 L in their Sunday Bake Sale area.  I paired it with the Lovely makeup set which is also only 50 L.  The darling hair is free at Rush, a cute blond bob.  I met the designer, Destiny Leimes, while I was there and she is a darling! It's a cute store and this is like the second freebie I've picked up from there recently, so she is generous, too! Thanks again!

Lazy Tuesday

I hope you all had a great weekend. If you are in the United States, I hope you enjoyed your Memorial Day Weekend.

I picked a couple things yesterday that I wanted to pass along to you. I got the new shape from Identity Studios, this is my third shape from them. The new shape is Yuri, very nice shape, not overly muscular. It's very well proportioned. It is a group gift from May 31st until June 3rd. Then it goes on sale at regular price. It is a group gift, and it's $25l to join the group.

The hair is a group gift from Klevta, and the sunglasses, mouth tape and headphones are all located at K_gs Kumuki. The glasses, mouth tape are located on the table. The headphones are in a basket on the bicycle next to the table. I think its a hunt item for the Surf'n Skate Hunt.

Happy Hunting!!

FIR & MNA, Hermony

FIR & MNA group gift and Hermony sale!













I recently discovered FIR & MNA's paid group, 100L to join which actually gives store credit of 20% with every purchase. FIR items are already pretty affordable, so I thought this was a good deal, because the group even gives rebates on sale items e.g. even for 50L Friday items, you get 10L store credit (20% back) with every purchase. There's also a current group gift of a special color of these shoes available at Shoe Fair 2011, I thought 100L was very reasonable for just this gift, not to mention store credit and upcoming group gifts. Note that the shoes look different on my screen, so view the group gift ad here!

There's a sale at Hermony and everything is marked down. The sale is to raise money for the owner's dog who has tumors in her leg. You can get a free tank whether or not you make a donation, but it would be really nice if you made a donation while getting the tank, every linden helps! There are also a lot of girls' items at Hermony and in the room on the right there are items from 15-35L, not to mention 5L for beautiful eyes! Basically I love Hermony anyway so I got myself quite a few items.

#1
Alphavillain Gatcha glasses, 40L per play, gatcha here
Hermony eyes, 5L omg so good.
Hermony unisex beanie, comes with tattoo layer hair in front. just 65L, on sale!
