Do You Have a Lisp for Spring?

No? Well hop on down to Lisp and touch their subscriber to get the lovely Granny's Knitting Circle gift they just sent out! It's adorable and very calming!  It comes with orange soda, a book and knitting projects as props and a trunk with a book, glasses, tea, flowers and a yarn ball on the ground.  Don't forget the floral lawn chairs that my grandma would have loved to sit in and tell some yarns. See what I did there? Boom tish!

Soupy's Showcase of Shoes!

Since I'm a shoe hoarder or "collector" by nature, I'm not sure why I don't have more shoes in my Second Life.  This is something I have decided to work on. Hey, a gal has to have a goal, right?  I traded it for my goal of learning to drive in a non-destructive way in SL.   Here's a few pairs of shoes I have picked up in the last couple of days.  I found some more but I have to do some burlesque later at Blue Moon's Cabaret (psst...show's at 2:30 every Saturday) and haven't more time to stand around taking photos of my av's feet...as much as I adore doing so.


 The Maja Clog from Loordes of London is this week's offering for le ladies in the second cycle of Goose and Gander Fridays.  Even though it's Saturday now, I'm pretty sure you can still get them.  Coleen Macarthur makes lovely and creative shoes that reflect her sharp wit and kindness.  She also enjoys eating lunch which is one of my favorite meals along with dinner and, on Saturdays, breakfast. I would pretty much eat these shoes if I could.


 Oh hey! What's this? More Loordes of London?!  Tss...we don't leave the men out at Goose and Gander Fridays!  In fact, it's a requirement not to! Loordes of London offers los hombres and those who enjoy being unisexy (such as myself) the Fulham Riding Boots in dark mauve.  I couldn't quite capture how the lace holes, for lack of a better term, glint when you walk. Believe me they do.  Not to be mistaken for the ghastly bling! No! They just glint like Cary Grant's smile.


Now and again, I cannot resist going to Grim Bros. for some fancy and dandy shoes that don't break the bank.  I'm usually there for about an hour but not for a spree.  I wish!  That would take a whole day!  There's so much detail to these, the Dahlia Heels Satin in bleu, but they are one of the simpler pairs available.  Sure, I want the Steampunk prosthetic with a matching spare shoe but maybe another day.  I could go on and on about Grim Bros. but I'll let you do some exploring.  I would eat these shoes, too but it might be the equivalent of when I was a kid and shoved some tiny clocks up my nose.  Just kidding! *cough*

 Well look at that...the boardwalk ate my favorite sandal ever!  Good job, photographer!  Um, yeah. Anyhoodle, these are not my favorite sandals because they were FREE on marketplace and come with prim toes, optional bangles and toe rings. No, sir! They are my favorite because they are so adorable and, as kismet would have it, match the rainbow swimsuit outfit from my previous post! Here it is on Marketplace!  The shoe listing...that is.  No, don't you eat my feet!  So gross but I can understand because they make your toes look like candy!

Alrighty...myself and my N key are out.  It's lunchtime dontcha' know?

Goose and Gander Friday & Egoisme Gift

It's the second week of Goose and Gander Fridays and there's some great stuff out!  I couldn't show off everything at once because I'm really hungry and I get to have delish chicken and biscuits (with sour cream in the biscuits!)  Make sure to make the rounds this Friday (some will still be available Saturday as well.)  I'm saving the riding boots from Loordes of London, the male gift for GGF, for my shoe fetish post later on!

However!  Here's what we've got!

Skybox: h.o.e. inc. [houseofenvy] The Victorian Skybox (GGF)
Hair:  [e] Again - Black 04 (not part of GGF)
Skin: Egoisme VIP gift--see details below!
Jacket: Graffitiwear: Ladies Coffee Leather Jacket (GGF) (A male version is also available)
Necklace: ...:::SCRUB:::.... Shiva Necklace (GGF)
Pants: Armidi: Low Rise Chinos (from the Warehouse Sale)
Top: Pig: The Potato Shirt (for Collabor88)

Join Goose and Gander Fridays to keep updated on the latest lists!  Applications are still open for designers as well!  

 Egoisme put out this gorgeous skin gift for their VIP's.  It's not the group that costs 300L to join (although I recommend joining since they have such amazing items) but the regular group! Included with the Evian - Ivy Special Edition Egoisme Fashion Friends skin gift is a set of lingerie in both black and white...does Ramses Meredith love Oreos?  I prefer Cakesters.  Anyhoo, the lingerie is beautifully detailed including lace gloves, corset with a sheer back and itty bitty panties that barely cover but add a little bit of DANG! to the set. Skin and lingerie details below...and above. 











































Whew! Check back tomorrow for my showcase of shoes! :D

Have a fabulous Friday everyone!

Beyond the Sea...Hole!





















This scene looks serene and peaceful but this lovely skirt and top was on mega sale at The Sea Hole due to Drinkenstein Sorbet being attacked by lightning in her mini van in RL!  Thus, she has put tons of items on sale for 50L each.  The items are marked by a white mini van being attacked by lightning. Too awesome!  The sale...I mean.  Below, you can see the mini van you are looking for in the store and also Drink's clever humor.


Style Card:
Hat and Sunglasses: Rainbow Wave Swimsuit Outfit: I think this was very, very cheap or free on marketplace but is made by HANDverk (the hat and glasses came with a cute swimsuit and waist wrap)
Hair: booN hairpiece YUME96 gold from booN (Thank goodness for booN and their hat hairpieces!)
Top: The Sea Hole: I'm Knot in Love With You in indigo (See LM to store above)
Skirt: The Sea Hole: Heron Skirt in slate (See LM to store above)
Skin: It's my mostly regular one from Fashionably Dead: Morning Sun-Winter 5

Coming up next: Goose and Gander Friday offerings and footwear!! I just bought some new shoes which I seem oddly short on; I'm going to show you pictures of my stinky avatar feet!

Woo!
