I know, I know, I'm really bad at keeping this thing up. But you know what? RL is super busy, and finding a moment to write a blog post is near impossible these days. Take this picture for example :

It took me weeks to take it. I acquired the gorgeous gown on the 15th. There was an issue with delivery so I only got it a few hours later. Then I wanted a new skin to match it, and I tried pretty much every skin maker on the grid to find the one. I tried I think 50 demos, took pictures of the good ones, sorted them, and ended up with 20, that I showed my friends... took me 3 days to decide. Then there was the hair. Since I buy tons of hair already, I have a rule to never buy new hair for a post. Which meant I had to try my whole hair folder to find the perfect match. Three more days. Good thing I am not showing any shoes or I'm not sure I would ever have finished. Jewelry was easier, I knew I wanted something from Cae, that I have been dying to try. I wasn't disappointed.

For the first time in what seems like ages, I have time to blog and something to blog, at the same time. I've been playing around with windlight settings (well, actually I was trying to install Nami Naeko's windlight settings but I'm a dork and never could make them work, so I had to make one myself)

12/11/2016 - Meh, long time no blog

It's not always easy to find the time to set up a blog post. But Oriana Kuhr from Dilly Dolls released a very pretty corset dress at The Liaison Collaborative and I thought you'd want to see it. The mesh is nicely rigged and apart from a poking nipple issue (easily fixed on the Maitreya body), it falls very nicely. I chose the dark tones fatpack, 6 colours for 400l$, which, if you ask me, is a super deal.

29/09/2016 - The girl in black

Hello everyone! I'm going back to RL work in a few days, and there's a chance that blog will once again disappear into oblivion... For that, I am sorry. But please keep following it, I'll try and post when I can.

My outfit today doesn't actually reflect my mood at the thought of going back to work, as I am in fact quite happy to get back on tracks with my first life.

04/09/2016 Who's Bad?

Hello!

I usually avoid gachas. They take all my money and I end up with a bunch of things I don't need and not the one thing I wanted. But I also usually make an exception with Clawtooth hair, because I don't need the rare, just the brunettes pack, and I tend to get lucky.

I went by the Dilly Dolls store today, because the Twisted Hunt has started and she had that gorgeous mesh corset out. I'm not one to show my boobies so I'm wearing a tank top layer from Izzie's underneath.

February 12, 2016

I realise it's been almost a month since my last post and I am sorry. I get so lazy these days with SL, and I tried at some point to recruit more bloggers but that didn't work as expected. So, if you're reading this, if you've always wanted to be a blogger but have a hard time committing to more than a post every few weeks, if you think you could bring something to Look What the Cat Brought, please let me know via a notecard inworld (@ rosemarie indigo) and we'll see if we can work something out.

Now, about today's look. I've slowly got used to my mesh head and I've started fiddling with skin tones, I also realised I'm going to have to update the Banana Banshee eyes to fit mesh heads, which is going to be a lot of work (bleh, tired already). Anyway, I really love my new face and I'm sticking to it.

First post of the year.

Hello,

Just a quick post because really want to show you a few things. First, after resisting for months, I finally joined the army of clones... well not so much since there are now dozens of mesh heads available. It really took me a while to find one that I didn't hate with a passion. I won't name names but some made me want to slap their resting bitch faces, some I found flat, the rest I found plain ugly.

Plus there's the issue of not being able to wear my favourite skins with a head I could like.

But 2 days ago, a miracle happened. Someone on Plurk posted a picture of a new Genesis Lab head that I found nice enough to want to demo it. So I went to the store but never found it (because obviously, it was at an event, duh), and since I was there and looking at heads, I demo'd a few and found Emily. Emily comes in a gacha, which usually bothers me, but I got lucky and got the rare ones fairly quickly.  At the bottom of this post you'll find the vendor add, each try is 99l$. 

Also, all the appliers for different bodies (in my case Maitreya), hands and feet (Slink) are free, which I find very nice.

The hair is Sabina Gully's latest wonder, it's called Love Song and you'll find it in her mainstore, Magika.

The outfit is a lovely number from Zenith, found at Collabor88, the shirt/dress under the loose sweater can be changed using the HUD, there are enough options to choose from to match it with pretty much anything, in this case the cute chevron tights from Izzie's.

The boots are the latest group gift from Fri.Day

Somnia Sale!

I know, I know, I'm a bad blogger. But fortunately Bel has been keeping the place alive, so I hope you'll forgive me. I have to say I've been very busy with RL, and didn't get much time to SL, let alone blog. 

But when Sanura Snowpaw announced she was having a sale, I just had to tell you about it. If you don't know Sanura, let me tell you a few things about her. Not only is she a talented designer, she's also an amazing person, who will always be there to help when needed. She's also very fond of her pets (I'm not sure but I think she has like 15 cats and dogs or something like that ^^) and animals in general. A few years ago after the tsunami in Japan, she organised the event "Fur Japan" destined to raise funds to help abandoned pets, which I was very proud to take part in. So anyway, that's Sanu for you. Well now she needs your help. 

One of her dogs, Kassie, is in need of surgery, and as you know, vets don't work for free. There's a GoFundMe if you want to help, but I suggest you show her love by buying her stuff, especially since everything in the store is 50% off. Sanu makes lovely and cheap mesh clothes, and, well, they're even cheaper at the moment. I went on a spree! But since I'm a lazy blogger, I only put together one outfit to show you. (If I happen to have time in the next few days I'll try and show more)

The Moopsie dress is a lovely and comfy autumn dress that comes in 8 different colours in one pack. It's mesh and comes in standard sizing (but I was able to fit it easily on my Maitreya Lara body, jus so you know)

The hair is the latest release from Magika, and if you haven't already, I suggest you go get the group gift that is pretty much the same hair with a witch hat (it comes in a green tone BUT if you buy the one I'm wearing you can use the HUD on the gift - so that's 2 hats for the price of one!)

Purple party

I was searching for a cute dress to wear my new free shoes with the other day, and found this cute mesh sequined thing for only 1l$ on Market Place. It comes in 5 sizes and honestly, it's really nice for only 1l$. I matched is with my Secret Store shoes (group gift), put a little make-up on, and I was ready to party. Unfortunately, all the good dance places I knew seem to have gone... One was even in ruins.
