Today is my birthday. :D Or perhaps, more accurately by the time of posting, yesterday was my birthday. x: I spent most of the day asleep. It’s O.K., I waste my birthdays every year. Last year I played Aika. x:
I’ve recently picked up a few freebies from Japanese creators across the grid. I thought I would squash them all into one post. :3 As usual, there’s not a lot of time to pick them up. There would have been an extra couple of days but Second Life is fussy and Tricketts are sleepy. x:
This is a group gift from the store Rui. Rui is new to me and I’m going to be sticking in the group for a while and watching this one, I think. The store is rather eclectic offering a small range of items from household goods and furntiure to shoes and clothing.
This is the gift in the Ambrosia lucky board. The board is group only. Ambrosia is largely a dolly/lolita dress store. It’s nice to see them branching out because I think the prims on this shirt are very well done. :3
The boots are from the Rui lucky baord. I am pretty sure this board will be switched soonish.
This is the gift at the ongoing hunt at MiuMin. It’s a group only hunt and the group fee is 10L but you can also pick up all of MiuMin’s past group gifts, which mostly consists of tradtional kimono dresses. MiuMin is a largely a traditional Japanese store with some modern girly clothing. I think the store is still relatively new and the creator is still learning but improving. :3
I often have trouble getting these sorts of dresses to fit right and not to look too bulky but for my avatar, thsi dress worked really well. :3 The collar and the waistband fit great and the skirt is very flowy. There’s also a cherry blossom posing prop, not pictured.
NekoKan, usually another dolly-Lolita dress store, is also holding a hunt in a similar style. Group only, group is 10L to join but all the past group gifts are available for you to pick up.
I also managed to win the outfit from the lucky board. It comes compelte with the top, shorts, belt and armband.
All the gifts this week were really well done but I think, this is my favourite. :3 If you miss this hunt or don’t feel like joining the group, everything is up for sale. :3
And lastly all the photos this week were taken in a little photo box from the furniture store, Cafe*Amie. The box includes 11 background textures and 4 poses, the position of which is adjustable. You can also pick up several other past gifts. :3
I originally saw this on the blog Spiderweb Second Life and then I spent abotu a week trying to remember where I had originally seen it. x:
Next week, I think I will go back to my black backgrounds in an effort to be consistent (sorry, I changed the layout theme again ): ) but I do like these types of boxes a lot. x:
