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.

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
