Maharaja Chai and a Berry Scone

Happy Sunday everyone! I hope this past week has been wonderful for all of you. I know it was rough for me. Turns out I had the stomach flu and a sinus infection. Despite my sickness, I still was able to enjoy my shopping, and lets just say... I have really enjoyed this past week.

Dress: GizzA Cathy Blazer @ShinyShabby, Shoes: Fri.day Bailey Loafers, Hair: NEW Truth Celeste, Necklace: Aphorism Bijou Moonstone @ShinyShabby, Rings: ieQED Persephone (not shown in picture) @ShinyShabby, Skin: Glam Affair Katra, Slink Hands and Feet, Whatever Fang Teeth, Eyes: Redgrave Catgreen and Natural6 Lashes

Shiny Shabby opened last week and let me just say....flowers! Lots of floral prints and garden items. Everyone is trying to jump into spring and prepare for the fun summer. I bought some jewelry sets by Aphorism, some rings by ieQED, and a dress by GizzA. I didn't end up buying the dress from Zenith. I tried the demo and the skirt didn't look flattering on my shape.  Fun round, and there are some cute shoes as well, so go check it out. There is something there for everyone.

Now onto my favorite thing since Collabor88 opened a few weeks ago...UBER! The theme this round is Spice, and let me tell you it reminds me of Bollywood and India and is just my dream. This month is looking to be my month for rounds. Collabor88 is Into the Light, and is all with my favorite color schemes. Uber is Spice and has my style and pieces of my soul. I just.... Love it. All the Hairs are awesome. Truth's is fun--it is a long side braid. Moon has a pretty LONG (like really long) hair. Olive has a LONG (again, like really long) hair. And Little Bones has a hair that is long and one comes with a head-scarf option and it is just fun.  I bought a lot of hairs this round.

I bought a ton of jewelry and outfits, but I am only going to mention of few of them for this post. If I listed all the outfits and jewelry pieces I bought this would turn into a monstrously long post.  I really like the Couture Saree by Nylon Outfitters. It is partial mesh with system layers/applier layers.  She also has silk shirts and leggings, all in fun prints and colors. Seul has a fun cropped shirt/skirt combo which is very fun. The skirt is high-low and very long in the back; I love it. Maxi Gossamer has a fun jewelry set. The set has a slight discount for the event, so when it goes up in her mainstore the price will increase. The best thing about the Maxi Gossamer set is you can change the colors of the jewels and the metals! So this is a great set to go with practically any outfit. Also...Zaara is at this round! And she has released something for the men this time. A very handsome suit and turban. I ended up buying a turban for myself. I think I will pair it with a dress or something. One of Glam Affair's vendor pictures inspired me. Anyway Zaara's male suit is very dashing and every gentleman needs one, and every lady needs to make sure her man buys one. Love this suit.

Hal (my partner) is wearing: Zaara Nehru Suit and Aahil Turban @Uber, Hair: Damselfly Legolas, Shoes: Utopia Dallas, Skin: Story Leaf Patrick, Eyes: Candy Lenze Pale Blue, Slink Hands and Lemon Tea Elven Ears
I am wearing: Nylon Outfitters Couture Saree @Uber, Hair: Little Bones Shaaswat @Uber, Necklace: Yummy Circle Charm Om @Uber, Shoes: Reign Isobel Foot Chains (not shown) @Uber, Jewelry: Zaara Ayanna Nosering and Earrings, Skin: Glam Affair Katra, Eyes: Redgrave Catgreen and Natural6 Lashes, Eyeliner: Adored Cherry Bomb Winged Liner, Slink Hands and Feet

So this round of Uber is amazing--you need to go. Shiny Shabby is also very fun and relaxing. You also need to go. I hope you all have a wonderful week this week. Let's all just bask in the awesomeness of the creators/designers at these events. Thank you!

Noon Chai to Add Color to Your Cup

Yay for Sundays! This weekend has been crazy busy for me. Well...this week in general has been crazy busy. Earth and I held a Derby Party yesterday and getting our home prepped and getting the party set up, well...it's exhausting. But oh so worth it for the fun memories. Congrats to American Pharaoh for the win! It was a wonderful race.

Dress: Tres Blah Cutout Skater Dress @Uber, Necklace: Yummy Shining Crystal Necklace, Earrings: Yummy Diamond Chandelier Earrings, Shoes: YS&YS Rapallo Chic Pure, Hair Truth Shae, Ring: Aisling, Skin: Glam Affair Ellie, Lipstain: Mudskin YumYum Dark, Slink Hands and Feet, Whatever Teeth Fang, Eyes: Redgrave Catgreen and Natural6 Lashes

Last Saturday Uber opened with it's new round called Neon. It reminds me of Miami, clubbing, and fun times.  I was very surprised with how Linden$ happy I was at this event. I went through about 3000L$ without even thinking about it. I just kept hitting pay.  I normally like soft pastel colors, and I don't typically go for bright in your face colors. With Uber, ALL the creators did a phenomenal job with the items and the colors. To me all the items were done so tastefully (hints as to why I bought a lot more than I normally do at an event). First, Uber normally has some cool decor to go with the theme every month, and this month they are so cool-let me just say the neon stars and on the ground are AWESOME. I felt like I was in a club the whole time. And getting into the event was easier than normal. I got in without even using my "LetMeIn" teleport Hud.

One of my favorite buys is a party dress (I would not call it cocktail. It screams PARTY) by Nylon Outfitters. Simple dress, only has a mesh skirt piece, the rest goes on the default body (appliers are included for Maitreya's Lara Mesh Body). The dress is black, and partially sheer; there are different neon sign designs on the front of the dress which I just love. I bought the one with the picture of a martini glass with two lips and says "Cocktails and Dreams". Love this dress. I was dancing at The Woods all weekend in it. I had it paired with a leather jacket by Foxes, and then I had at one point my red/blue parrot familiar/pet from Manticore as well.  Love this dress. It was a great price, at around 200L$!!! I think it is a steal. I also bought the necklace and earrings at the booth. Just amazing items at such great prices, you really can't go wrong.

Romper: Zenith Thoracotomy Rompers @Uber, Shoes: Essenz Mumbai (not shown), Hair: Tableau Vivant Diana @Shiny Shaby, Ring: Aisling The Good Wife, Necklace Earrings Bracelet: Izzie's Coin jewelry in Gold former Uber, Skin: Glam Affair Katra, Lipstick: Glam Affair Romy Goddess, Eyes: Redgrave Catgreen and Natural6 Lash, Slink Hands and Feet, Whatever Teeth Fang

Tres Blah is at the event as well, and the cute cut-out skater dress. I wanted to be a bit different so I bought the yellow dress. The dress, as like all of Tres Blah's stuff, is simple and very well cut. I like the dress a lot and I can see using it for a lot of things and pairing it with items and and such to create so many different looks. Another great buy.  There is also a dress by Seul I liked. It looks like a simple cocktail dress, but the sides are open and have ties running across. The dress has a hud which is really easy to use to help match the skin tone of the dress with your skins. I had a little bit of difficulty at first because two tones work with my skin (I normally use Glam Affair Jamaica tone). I bought the black dress because I thought black would be very versatile. I have it paired with bright heels to give it that POP.  Also Baiastice has a dress that is cute, short, and has zippers down the front (easy access for those of you risque folks). And I really did like the new hair by Wasabi Pills at the event (convenient since those booths are close to each other). The hair is curly, not too big, and very fun looking.  Reminds me of Magika's Lemon hair I bought a while back.

The Truth hair for the round I don't know what to make of, but the new release Malea I love. I ended up buying the color pack to go with the outfit by Valentia I bought at Uber. I wanted to wear the teal or dark blue color to match the dress. I really like how the colors just pop.  I also bought the Zenith Romper for the event. I bought the floral print (of course). The cut is very short, but I like how flirty it looks.

Well, I hope all of you have a wonderful Sunday. I will be posting again this week on Thursday with a surprise announcement! So be looking for that. I am really excited about it. Hugs and Smooches~

How About a Celestial Blend?

Happy Sunday everyone! I hope everyone has been safe and warm this past week, what with blizzards, chills, and just overall crazy weather...At least here in the United States. I know some of you are overseas, and I want you all to stay safe and warm, too! Go now; steep some breakfast blend and stay awhile.

Uber opened last Sunday, and as most of you know, the theme this month Celestial.  Not really so much with the Sunday Tea theme, BUT I am a huge Star Trek fan, and an overall nerd, so this theme was very fun for me. I ended up spending more than I originally thought, and bought some outfits I don't normally wear for myself.  When I think of Celestial, I think of space and time, of heaven, of stars, and, funny enough, Metaphysics. Don't ask why, it just does for some reason. My mind is a jumbled mess of crazy.

I bought two jumpsuits by Foxes, one in off-white and the other is a galaxy/star print. I don't normally wear jumpsuits, but when I was looking at the suits I just had to buy one, and then after a mishap with delivery (my fault, I have a click happy hand) I bought another.  Now, I bought the suit that has the sleeves, and has a deep V-cut...so quite a bit of cleavage, but as always with 99% of what I wear, it still tasteful.  I paired it with jewelry by Yummy which is also at the event.  The necklaces you can layer, and I also put on the short sun pendant by Schadenfreude which was available at Collabor88 last November for the Modern Alchemist round. The hair by Truth for this round is also a must have--a curly side pony with a braid and optional star berets.

Jumpsuit: Foxes V-Neck Nebula @Uber, Hair: Truth Esther with Silver Clip @Uber, Necklaces: Yummy Celestial Necklaces Burst and Moon & Schandenfreude Short Sun , Bracelets: Earthstones Krishna, Earrings: Earthstones Tennis Amethyst and Diamond, Ring: Yummy Twinkling Star @Uber, Shoes: LaRoo Alison Pumps in Grey, Skin: Glam Affiar Amberyl II Jamaica with Romy Lipstick for Jamaica, Eyes: Redgrave Catgreen and Natural Lashes6, Slink Nails and Whatever Teeth

Zenith has a sweater out which reminded me a bit of Star Trek: Into Darkness(there is a unisex jacket there by David Heather which reminded me exactly of Khan's coat from the beginning. I didn't buy it, but I do know someone who I am going to make buy it because he would look so dapper and just awesome in it). The sweater is kind-of-almost off the shoulder, and the end of the sleeves have a hud you can color change. There are some necklaces there to pair with it (and Maxi Gossamer has a cleaner cut necklace of a very similar style) but I did not purchase those. I have it paired with some leather leggings by Plastik called Shine. I bought them a long time ago, and the combo of the leather leggings and this sweater..well, I think it is perfect, but you can tell me if I am wrong.

Sweater: Zenith Yuanyang Sleeve Sweater @Uber, Leggings: Plastik Galatea Legging in Shine, Jewelry: Yummy Celestial Necklace and Twinkling Star Earrings and Ring @Uber, Hair: Truth Esther with Silver Clip @Uber, Skin: Glam Affair December II Jamaica, Eyes: Redgrave Catgreen, Eyelashes: Redgrave Naturals, Slink Fingernails and Whatever Teeth

The Jewelry by Yummy I preferred to the other jewelry there (it is also priced very well, very cheap in my opinion for a quality so high). There is also a dress by Seul which I purchased  I think it fits well (the alpha layer, on the back of the neck does not match up well with the dress--so if you wear a short hair, or any hair that reveals the back of your neck, at the top of the dress, you can see through your body...not awesome, but the dress is so pretty, longer hair won't hurt it at all).  There is a jacket you can buy separately, but I liked the dress by itself, and trust me, It is simple and gorgeous by itself.

Dress: Seul Metallic Knit Dress @Uber, Hair: Truth Esther with Silver Clip @Uber, Jewelry: Earthstones Krishna Harmony Necklaces and bracelets, Earrings: Earthstones Tennis Earrings Amethyst and diamonds, shoes: LaRoo Khloe, Ring: Tea.s Starfleet Ring, Skin: Glam Affair Amberly II Jamaica, Eyes: Redgrave Catgreen, Eyelases: Redgrave Natural6

Everything at Uber this round is running on the cheaper side, and my wallet thanks the designers for it.  Since Uber has opened, I have been at least 4 times. Again, the theme Celestial isn't quite Sunday Tea, but my inner nerd is so in love... so in love. Set some time, and some L$, aside this month and go check out Uber.
