Hannukah Hunt!

Lilah tov! (That means good evening in Hebrew.) I'm seeing a lot of Christmas hunts and such, so I thought I'd get together a Hannukah hunt.

So, what is Hannukah?

Hannukah is also called the Festival of Lights. The story of Hannukah goes as follows: the Greeks took over Palistine, and tried to convert the Jews to Christianity. Some did, some didn't. And in the Greeks attempt to convert the Jews, they ravaged the Temple. The Jews found out, and they cleaned up. They wanted to light the menorah, but didn't have enough oil. They put the oil in the menorah, and, miraculously, it lasted for eight days.

So we light a menorah for eight days, and get a present for each night. At my house, we get small presents for the first seven nights and a big present for the eighth night. Latkes are made by shreading potatoes and frying them into a pancake shape. Donuts are also eaten because, like latkes, they are fried in oil.

Now for the hunt details.

The items have to be related to Hannukah or Jews. Items are menorahs, Jewish stars, latkes, donuts, flames. Skins, props, poses, shoes, and clothes are included. Contact me, LenaLove Avro for an application. I hope this goes over well!

Don't be afraid; I don't bite!

Working Hard

Yup, that's me. I have been wrestling with prims and painting skins for a few long days.


RLF is my RL initials, and, in world, it is my store. RLF has skins and clothes. It's inexpensive, and cute.

Here is what I came up with:




Cropped Skinny Jeans! It features visible stitches, and wrinkles. It can be worn with or without the cuffs. It's a preppy look (which I'm apparently getting pretty good at: see my Scotty shorts at http://slurl.com/secondlife/Harlow/75/188/34). I am wearing a COCO floral tank, which comes with the scarf, and TESLA shoes.

The jeans are $L10.


This look consists of two RLF pieces. The Black Lace Scarf and The Black Lace Mini Skirt. The Scarf can be worn with or without the extention piece. The Skirt is flirty, fun, sexy and a little dark.

The Scarf is $L1, and the Skirt is $L10. Neither of them are out yet.


And here are the Karida faces in Bare. I'd like to thank Eloh Eliot for the base skins and Obsidian Dawn for the brushes I used.
In order from top to bottom: Dark, Natural, and Pale. The makeups are very couture. Come have a look! http://slurl.com/secondlife/Harlow/75/188/34

Enjoy yourself.

Grey

I love this simple look. I put my ATOMIC kitty ears back on, just for fun. The hair I'm wearing is called Paris, and it's from the TRUTH $L25 retirement sale. I doubt it's on anymore, but I really love this hair and hat. The hat is color-change. The skin was from the *CUPCAKES hunt. It's called Raspberry, and it's in my favorite tone, Sambuca. I actually love raspberries, so I was so excited when I found this gift in the hunt. The tunic is from Pididdle, and it's $L50 from the discount floor. The shoes are the always fabulous TESLA.

Karida is Out!

Karida in the Dark tone is out.


I noticed that skins with facial moles are so pretty, so I ventured out to make my own. I was doing some research, and I found out that it is suggested that the placement of your facial moles reflects your personality. So I put some moles on skin, and went to my favorite site for names: BabyNames.com. Because one of the moles suggests loyality, I searched the meaning loyal on BabyNames.com. I came up with Karida.
This is the Swirl makeup in the Dark tone. It features a really cool swirly design coming from the eye and a red lip.
This is Stitched Together. The face and body are covered in stitches.

This is the Marie makeup in Purple. It's a purple color on the lid, with a gold color on top of that and under the eye. The lip is pink.


This is the Marie makeup in Pink. It's pink on the lid, with gold over that and under the eye. The lips are pink.



This is the Marie makeup in Mint. It is a light green color on the eyelids, and a goldish color ontop of the green and under the eye. The lips are pink.




This is the High Velocity makeup. It features some really cool eyelashes, and a pink lip.











This is the Classic makeup. It features a red lip, and an exagerated cat eye.






This is the Bling makeup. It features purple eyeshadow on both eyelids, and black jewels around the left eye. The lip is a great neutral.























Karida is supposed to be a little smoother than Rae, her predicesor. Karida has eight makeups, and a natural look.
