The weather is so lovely, but I am going to rant anyway. Lol. This is more like a public service announcement to all of my fellow broke-ass bloggers.
If you are using a free webhost (in my case it was 000webhost.com) to host your blog you may want to do some research on their company. My site was down for DAYS and I have been dealing with probably the most ridiculous tech support staff in the world. Basically they hijacked my site for a TOS violation that never happened. Then they wanted me to pay (upgrade) in order to get my site back (doesn’t make sense, does it??). Since I didn’t have a backup of the database and I knew I would have to recreate the last 10 or so posts… and I just DONOT have time for that right now… I bit the bullet and paid for a month of service so I can just download everything I need and start moving forward! I’ve decided to go with HostGator this time because I have heard great things. It is not free, but I am over getting dicked around by shady webhosting companies.
Gah, ok, on to the actual blog post that I’ve been waiting to put up all week (sorry for the hiatus and hope you like the looks!!):

I wear a lot of black in real life so I try to avoid it in second life. But sometimes I find myself really liking some of the creations in the darker/monotone colors. Here are a few recent looks I put together wearing black:

Here is post number three from the Skin Fair. This time I am blogging skins from Tokyo Girl, Mons and Blush.
First up we have Amelia from Tokyo Girl which can be found on Skin Fair sim two.

The second skin from Tokyo Girl is called Miru.

This is Cat from Mons. You can find her on Skin Fair sim two.

And last but far from least we have Mabel from Blush. There are several other makeups to choose from! All just as fun and also found on Skin Fair sim two.

Other items worn:
hair: aoharu
bodysuit: pig
Here is Skin Fair post number 2! I may have underestimated myself.. I believe there will be a third and maybe even a fourth.
These skins from English Muffin made me squee! They are all so cute and original.. love them (ty Queenie)! They come in an array of different tones and makeups and also come with several addons. In this post I’m going to show off a few makeups from each skin line. This is another new designer for me.. so be sure to pick up the demos at the Skin Fair!!
First up we have Jakuri. My favorite of the lot.. there are so many different lips! ♥ OMG! HEART LIPS! ♥ Jakuri comes with lots of eyeliner tattoo layers, eyes, and lashes. Sometimes my avatar gets crazy eyes like in the pics below. It always makes me giggle.
And now for Dorayaki! This skin comes with lots of addons! Freckles, blushes, eye liners, different chest options and more. The makeup in the middle is my favorite. 😀
Here is Emma! She is very adorbs, don’t you think?
Meet Mochi!
And finally we have ChiChi shown in all skin tones.
All of these can be found in the English Muffin store on Skin Fair sim two! Also fellow Lola’s lovers (even though I rarely wear mine, I do ♥ them) will be happy to know that Tango appliers are available for all skintones!

The 2013 Second Life Skin Fair starts tomorrow, March 15th. There are tons of incredible and unique skins from a huge list of talented designers. The stores are housed across two sims and they are super easy to navigate. This is just my first of several (ok, at least *two*) posts covering the event. I’m featuring two skins in this post, both from some kick ass designers that are new to me! Both of these designers are featured on Skin Fair sim one.
The first skin is from SHINE (ty Love!) and her name is Anela. I instantly fell in love with the lips on this skin! I own a lot of skins, so for me, when I go skin shopping, I need to see something that is a little different or else there is a good chance I already have something similar in my inventory. These lips stood out for me and you can see why below:
What comes with the skin? You will get two different freckle & teeth layers along with several different options for cleavage and pubic hair. You can see a few of the add ons below:
The second skin featured in this post, Lana, is from Inside Labs (ty Carlsberg). I love the lips on this skin as well.. and the makeups are also very lovely with plenty to choose from!
What comes with the skin? You will get two freckle layers and a blushing (shy) layer pictured below.
Other items worn:
hair: wasabi pills *new*
top: paper doll *new* at the arcade

Most of the items you see are at Collabor88 this month! If you haven’t braved the lag* yet, you should do so soon!
hair: magika *new*
skin: glam affair *new* at collabor88
makeup (liner): cheap makeup
necklace: lagyo *new* at collabor88
top: the sea hole *new* at collabor88
skirt: the secret store *new* at fameshed
tattoo: ufo
shoes: gos
*pro tip: To reduce lag during events like this go into Advanced > Rendering Types and turn off Avatars. You won’t be able to move (so it might not work well for events that take up a whole sim) but you can cam around with ease and there will be a LOT less lag. Thinks load sooo much faster for me since I’ve started doing that. I’ve been playing SL for a long time and I only just recently figured that one out. Dang.
