Santa's Sweetheart

Yet more prezzies for meeee.  I must have been a really good girl this year or Santa has a crush on me, don't know which but the gifts just keep on coming.

Skins galore (if galore means 2)  There are skins available in both the Curio group (left side of pic) and the Glam Affair (right side of pic) group (30L$ join fee) both equally as beautiful.

I am toying with buying a pack of the latest Glam Affair skin 'Jadis' and the Christmas gift is going a long way to persuade me.

I always liked Curio skins but thought they were better suited to the cute tiny girls not the leggy giant girls of SL, seems I was wrong as the Ice Queen skin is just fabulous, if only I could get red gloss that great in RL.

I also grabbed one of the newest releases from Glamorize, the Glam Mascara costing me a grand total of 5L$ for 4 eyelash tats! I can edit a pair of prim lashes but really why bother when you can just pop a pair of tattoo lashes and you are out the door.

Glam Mascara 01 & 02

Glam Mascara 03 & Mega Mascara

The differences don't show up particularly well in the pics but there is a difference I am loving the Mega Mascara.

I tp'd over to Pixel fashion to check out the new shoe release 'Oshun'. The store is very wintery/christmas themed which took a very long time to rez for me, there are different ways  you can actually tp to the store I got bored waiting and took the quick tp (which rezzed first).

The shoes are available in eight colours. They are colour change (4 variations of the main colour) costing 450$ OR for two days the fat pack is half price at 1200L$.

I don't know when the two days started or ends so rush over right now if you want the fatpack at a great price.

I'm just a doll

Still skipping/lagging through this seasons hunts.

Found a super cute trouser, braces and t-shirt at {paper.doll}. These trousers are bang up to date with the extended waist and super tight fitting around the hips.  What's even better is that the clothes come on different layers to enable you to play around with jackets and different shirts. In short this is a great find.

I am going to have a further look around {paper.doll}I am in the mood for shopping today.

Oh I'm English so I will add an English English to American English translation here just in case :)

Trousers=Pants
Braces=Suspenders

Talented Gentlemen

Two very talented gentleman who are among the biggest movers and shakers in the SL beautification game played early Santa over the last couple of days.

Kavar Cleanslate's Exile spoiled us with a preview of the new male skin line 'Mechanic' and for the Ladies the hair 'do'-'Rina' in chocolate swirl. I really like this hair it's sex kitten meets glamour girl meets my inventory pretty soon :). Head over to Exile and click the subscribo for both gifts.

Belleza 'Erika' Group Gift & Exile 'Rina' (subscribo gift)

Tricky Boucher seems to have been missing in action for a while, but he is back to tempt us with a sneak peek at his upcoming skin release 'Erika'. The Belleza group has a joining fee of L$250 which is so worth it as there are regular group gifts for both male and females. The gift is available in the group notices and comes in six skin tones.

I like Belleza skins they are more mature looking and very classically beautiful and Tricky makes some of the hottest male skins on the grid.
