So this morning I sat down to do my tour of sales in SecondLife and recalled a conversation I had with a friend. I love to go on hunts. The main reason I go is because it allows me a chance to see stores I haven't been to for a while or haven't ever seen. I thin hunts are a great way to find new places. In a conversation with my friend....he stated hunts were bad for designers because people came, grabbed the free hunt prize, and left never having purchased anything or had intent to come back. I can totally see how it would be bad for designers. I really do.....but I thought, wow....do all those hunters "I came, I got free, I ran!" do they all just cam for the prize and tp out without even taking a look around?
It concerned me a little, because I always want to be a bonus to a designer I like. I want them to know I enjoy their designs enough to actually buy them and I do! I buy so much stuff! But, I am not going to lie, I love little things like...FaMESHed, The Dressing Room, Fifty Linden Fridays, etc....because they are one stop shops for me. I get to see new things and grab an updated LM to mainstores....and get a good deal.
So...what do you think? Are hunts and bargain weekends a bad or good thing? I'd love to hear what some designers think!!! ALL COMMENTS WELCOME!!!!
In the meantime, enjoy the oldie bug goodie outfit for the day!!!

Something Simple
It has been a while and well...while the time has been passing I have been redecorating...everything. As a female it is my perogative to change my mind and on my land I do so often. Currently it's set up to welcome supernatural role players. Glee!
My hide away from it all is a beautiful little skybox tucked away and designed by Kari.
I...think...you...MUST....see this skybox. The textures are simply perfection and while I'd love to change the angle and color of the shadows and close the doors between rooms...its perfection otherwise! And a steal at only 500L. Why ARE YOU STILL HERE?! GO LOOK AT IT!
It was the perfect little place to snap shots of this little number. A bit of a funky twist on a classic business look...and all creamy dreamy. The hair I snagged at the Ch1c Birthday Event...the blouse a Sea Hole brilliant on sale...and the rest was well...tucked away in my inventory and needed, begged, and pleased to be worn.
The photos, I did not edit at all but to resize, so forgive!

Summerisle
Summerisle is a loving creation of Lyssa Sapeur and Straight Razor...both awesome creators of awesome things within SL!
So, we've come to it...I have decided again (I am full of decisions!) that all my first posts will be the places I love the most, leading up to the Number One Spot for me in this big old SL world. And guess what else...I love fashion too much not to include it now and then! Deal...so...onwards!
Is anyone a big fan of LOST? Do you wail and bemoan it's departure from midweek television and the lack of Jackate and Sawyette??? OR even Sawykate and Jackertte! Or...let me stop...I am not so good with the couple names! Well, I bemoan my friends and I wail. But whenever things look bleak Summerisle is right there to pick me back up again.
The game is...the Wikka Man will eat you and that fire? Yeah, the one that I am so worried will burn him up....it doesn't. It warms me up as I dance around inside his stomach! It's creepy...its crazy....and I cannot help but go back and look at it over and over...and yes...I've danced in the shadow of the Wikka Man like some cultish lost soul and I WILL DO IT AGAIN!
Up the beach and over the hill the land pans out to a more manageable fear level...into almost calm meandering of a well organized park...where I can of course shop! This is the headquarters and factory area for some pretty amazing prim babies..-grins- Bundleworks Baby Adoption Boutique has some of the cutest little ones and while I am not apt to buy children...if you want...she will make...it will be good!
Inside the building is a few other cute little stores and I've gained an adorable work out outfit here and there in my travels to Summerisle. It's a sure check it out and see...
Outside, off towards the meandering path once more, there are yet more...interesting places to dance with the devil in the pale moonlight. Have you ever? Sorry! Have to pull myself out of the movie mind though and even away from the TV. I can't help it, Summerisle entertains me!
Memorial to friends, gone from SL and proof that we aren't forgotten here. Our footprints and our words, our charismatic gestures and insane impromptu dance parties in the middle of a foreign shopping center...do not go unnoticed or forgotten. We imprint upon people here and are remembered when we go. So be kind...rewind.
Sorry, I couldn't help it!
