Update

So, I'm still planning on doing the Pimp my Space hunt, so if you're interested, leave a comment. I don't think I'll be in-world for a while.

I've been looking for some awesome plain wall textures. I found a great place called InSight Designs, and I love their textures. I really love their Designer walls, but then I looked closer. It's actually patterned! And that's not what I envisioned for my home!

So if you know of really cool, realistic plain wall textures, comment on my blog to let me know! Thanks.

Now Presenting...

Altruism! Ta-da!

I made the table, which is called Round Side Table, and is for sale for L$10. It only comes in this texture, but I'm gonna work on getting more textures into it. Contact me if you want it.

I Have A Proposition....

...which I'll talk about in a moment.

A few weeks ago, Mudhoney's Photoble was all over the blogs. It looks amazing, but instead of buying it(not enough L$), I made my own Photo Hall. It's just three walls and a floor. I bought some textures that I can change at will.

But the most important thing to making a scene as realistic as it can be is furniture. But good furniture, like from the Loft, is really expensive. And I'm on a budget.

So my idea is a furniture hunt. Everything would be included, like beds, couches, loveseats, chairs, tables, nightstands, lamps, bookstands, cabneits, dressers, wardrobes, plants, and anything else you can think of that you can decorate a house or yard with. I'm starting at 20 businesses within 3 weeks to a month, so if I don't get 20 places, I'm dropping the hunt. If I do get 20 or more places, this blog will be the hunt blog. I'll provide hints here, and I'll make a group to help with hints.

If you are interested, notecard me in-world, or comment on this post.

Just Chillin'

I found this great place for taking pictures. It's called Fotoscape, and that's where this picture was taken.
For a relaxed kind of day, I needed a relaxed outfit. I started with my trusty .h&co. jeans. Then I added my Meriken cardigan to be comfy; after all, it is less than 50 degrees F where I am. I needed something to brighten my outfit up, and I found the perfect thing. The top from So Many Styles' Country Dress in Pink is bright and springy. Just the thing I need. The hair is from TRUTH, and is a really cute relaxed style.

Don't mind my blank expression.

P.S. If you want to participate in my Pimp my Space furniture and garden hunt, please send me a notecard with your name on it, and the name of your business. Also, please add what kind of business you have, ie furniture, garden center. I would also like to know how many items you'd like in the hunt, and what they are. If you're not sure what you'd like your items to be, make sure to tell me when you do. Thanks!

My Day in RL

I decided to do a Day in the Life...RL.

My first order of business is working out. So I put a *COCO* gift on. The Athletic Shorts are great. They're comfy, and that's what I need when I'm exercising.

This shirt is so sweet, I just had to wear it. It's from Doppelganger Inc., and I know I'll be going back. This shirt was a gift; I just don't know where it's from. Oops. The sneakers were free from a random person who asked me if I wanted free stuff. It's a good look to work out in, and the hair is kept out of my eyes.

After I workedup a sweat in the gym, I went to class. I like to wear comfortable, stylish clothing to class. That's just who I am. So, I decided I'd throw on a pair of mens pants. These are from the Make Him Over Hunt, and they're really comfy. The shirt is a great, cute little thing. I think I got it on the Cupid's Heart Hunt. I also got the chairs on the hunt. Now, the sweater is cute, fun, and a little wierd. I got it on the Trapped in the 80's Hunt, and it's from Pig. It comes with a shirt, but I love the sweater.

Just Lounging Around..

Today, I decided to put together a simple, casual look. It's just one of those days.

I really need to get better at this photography thing, huh?

The top is from Pididdle, courtesy of the Trapped in the 80's Hunt. It is a gorgous green, with a cute sketch of a little girl. The pack comes with a plain sweater if you don't want the graphic. Keeping with my comfy vibe, I searched through my closet, and found these. They are .h&co., and they came to me via DSN. The jeans come with a cool, 80's-ish layered top.

I wish I could get closer so I can show you these eyes!

The hair is a pretty, un-done-up side pony from Truth. I got it during the L$25 Retirement sale that happened a while ago. Thank goodness I had this hair. One thing I didn't have were eyes. On the feeds, I saw some really realistic, although creepy, eyes. I just knew I had to have them. So I got the brown pair. I love them.

The skin is one of my beautiful Sambuca skins from *CUPCAKES. I can't wait to get more. The ears are my loved *UB* ears in plain.

The wall textures are from Made by Moo.

Happy happy,

Koty

Forget VDay!

It's my birthday!!!

And to celebrate, I got dressed up to go clubbing. But my day outfit is more of a sexy thing for VDay. The skin is a great buy; I got it for L$250 at Cupcakes. The skins are usually L$800 a pop, but one skin in each line was marked down. This one was, and, as you can see here, I bought it. The make up is cute, and I love the boobs! The cleavage on this skin is super sexy. To stick with the VDay theme, I put a Cupcakes bra on. This was from a hunt that the Cupcakes sim had a while back. Topping that off is a Pink Outfitters teal eyelet cardigan. I love it. It's sexy and fun. The skirt is a great find at /artilleri/. I love pencil skirts, and Simplicity makes me happy. I got the hair at Truth, when I was there for their retirement sale. I think this hair was either free or really really cheap. It's a cute little cut, which is pinned back.


After a day of pleasuring my man, I'm going out!

!WigWamBam was having a sale, and I grabbed this, loving it, but not knowing where or when I'd wear it. Their Sequin Minidress is fun, sparkley, and just right for a night out. The hair is !lamb, and so sweet. The shot I found while searching for beer. It was free.

Happy Birthday, me!

Men, Bail Out!

Go to /artilleri/!

Which is what I did. In real life, I love cardigans. They're great for layering, especially in winter, when you don't want to dress too bulky but still want to be warm. So I brought that love into Second Life. And I found some great cardis at /artilleri/. This Elspeth cardi in black with dots is great. Theres another cardi you get which is plain. So thats two cardigans for L$90! They come in all colors, and the fatpack is L$900. I wanted all of them! But, really, the cardigan is a great buy. It's cute, sexy, and fun all at the same time.



I also love hair. There are two types of hair I love: casual and fashiony and arty. !lamb quenches my arty-hair thirst really well. This style is called Say, and is in the Snickers tone. I love it! I want hair like this in real life! The style is great, and so much fun.

As for skins, I'm going to be exclusively *CUPCAKES Sambuca from now on. I only have two skins, but I'm working on the rest. I just love the look for this chocolatley tone.

I actually made a photo hall. I went to the Gnubie Store, bought some cheapie textures for the floor, and got some [LAP] poses. I love it. and excuse the quality of the following photo. It should be a little clearer.


P.S. I just heard about a secret *CUPCAKES sale! One makeup in each skin line is L$250! I'm on it!

Update on Jack's Pot

I finally got a SURL for Jack's Pot!

Here you go:

http://slurl.com/secondlife/Oceanic%20Reverie/136/22/29/?title=Jack%27s%20Pot&msg=Want%20free%20lindens%3F%20%20You%27ve%20come%20to%20the%20right%20place%21%20%20Fun%20surveys%20for%20L%24.

Have fun with all the surveys!

Shake Your Money Maker!

There are many ways to make a L$ in Second Life. Real money is paid to stock up on L$, and can cost you big time in real life. Another way to make an Lbuck is to make stuff. Clothes, hair, skins, jewelry, cars, homes, furniture are only some of the wares you can build. You can also be a scripter. But all of these jobs require RL skills. Unskilled jobs are also a way to make money in Second Life. You can be an exotic dancer, a security guard, or a model. Yes, being a model in Second Life is an unskilled job. Moving on.

But everyone needs money. I mean, it's not like in RL where you have to buy food, pay the rent, pay the bills, and more. But it is good to have money.

Camping is a very slow way of getting money without doing anything. All you do is sit. And for an hour of sitting, you get not more than L$4. Wouldn't you rather be hanging out, shopping, exploring new worlds?

So, if you don't have any skills, don't want to be a stripper, and don't want to be sitting in one place for hours on end for the smallest amount of L$ ever, keep reading.

You can take surveys and get paid, in L$, for taking them. All you need is a computer, which I know you have, and a text enabled cell. You take the survey, and to complete it, you get a code on your cell, which you enter to get the money. The surveys are all different amounts. The payload depends on how big the survey is. So, if the survey is L$20, it's really simple. On the other hand, if the survey is L$120, the survey might take a while. The best part is that you can choose what surveys you want to take.

So if you love the Facebook surveys, don't have any skills, don't want to be a stripper, and don't want to spend your whole Second Life camping, go to Jack's Pot! (I'll have a landmark very, very soon!) You'll have fun, and you'll make some money.

Thanks!
