Look No. 526: Like A Cat

Hello again my lovelies!

Usually October is my favorite month because Halloween is my favorite holiday. I will normally put together a few creepy looks but for some reason, this year, I'm just not into it. I keep waiting for the Halloween spirit to bite me in the ass but it hasn't yet. Happens...I guess. Hopefully this hasn't happened to you.

In this post, I will be showing you the very first store release from Kaithleen's which will make a very sexy costume for whatever Halloween shindig you've got coming up. I also have a preview of White Widow's exclusive at the upcoming round of Kinky Event that opens on October 28th, a new store release from SlackGirl (my newest sponsor), a Hangar Event (closes on November 10th) exclusive from Lilo's FIT, Belleza's exclusive at Uber (closes on November 23rd) and an anyBODY (closes on October 30th) exclusive from Imitation.

I hope you like what I have to show you. Until next time...happy shopping!

Look No. 525: I Don't Smoke But Sometimes I Need A Long Drag

Hello again my lovelies!

One topic in SL that comes up every now and then in just about everyone's mind is our inventories. After 8 and a half years, 4 of those years as a blogger, in SL, I have amassed a ridiculously HUGE inventory. So this is a topic that would be on my mind a lot lately. Every time I open up my inventory, I always tell myself that I really need to just start deleting shit out of it because most of it, I just don't wear or use anymore. My problem is, I just don't want to. There is a time capsule stuff that bring back fond memories of people and certain events in my Second Life and I'm just not ready to let go of it all. Other items are clothes and shoes and jewelry that I just love and can't bring myself to part with. I'm sure there are many of you out there who totally relate to me on this. Anyway, with well over 200,000 items, I've been trying to figure out what to do with it all.

The other night on Facebook, I posted, "Wouldn’t it be cool to have something like Blogotex but it would be for our own individual inventories and we could send stuff to and pull out from as needed and then send it back for safe keeping?" It was an idea that just popped into my head that day and felt compelled to share it. Well, last night, I was contacted about this idea of mine. I'm not going to say who contacted me but let's just say, my post could actually be a reality. So I 'm pretty excited about what was discussed. We can only see what may become of my idea. You can bet that when that day comes, you'll be the first to know.

In this post, I'll be showing you anyBODY (closes on October 30th) exclusives from {ViSion} -S&F, Messange and Bossie. I'll also be showing you Kaithleen's exclusive at Tres Chic (closes on November 5th), The Chapter Four (closes on November 1st) exclusives from G&D and [west end] and finally, :: SAGA :: is at Limit8 that ends on November 13th.

I hope you like what I have to show you. Until next time...happy shopping!

Look No. 524: Silent All These Years But Now It's Time To Say #METOO

Hello again my lovelies!

Before I get to what I'm featuring in this post, I'd like to bring up a somewhat difficult subject. Today, on Facebook, I read a very disturbing post. Since it was revealed that Harvey Weinstein had sexually harassing women. Scores of famous actresses have started to come out and speak about their sexual harassment by Mr. Weinstein. Then within the last week, I started seeing several of my female friends posting this:

#MeToo
If all the women who have been sexually harassed or assaulted wrote "Me too." as a status, we might give people a sense of the magnitude of the problem.

Well, in my early 20s (I'm 41 now), when I was in college, I was sexually harassed myself by a man who I considered one of my best friends. I was devastated and no one believed me except for my family. It took an emotional breakdown and years and years of therapy to heal from it. So naturally I joined in and posted the "#MeToo" post.

Well, I don't know what transpired but apparently, one of my friends made the same post and was blasted for it and called an attention whore for using the hashtag. To sum up her response to that criticism is that now that the sexual harassment of women is being taken seriously, it's time for the everyday women who have experienced sexual harassment to step out of the shadows and stand up behind all these famous women and bring this subject to the forefront and not let it sit back in the shadows like it has been for all these years. Most importantly, the hashtag is a way to let each other, and those who are still hiding in the shadows, know that we are not alone and we shouldn't feel ashamed for having experienced a demeaning and devastating event. We need to stand up and fight and in the words of my friend, "ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! #METOO".

For those of you reading this and have been sexually harassed in any way, I hope that you will not be afraid to step out of the shadows and make the above post as your post on social media to let others know that they are not alone. For those of you who have been lucky enough to never have been sexually harassed, I hope that you will encourage anyone you know who has not been so lucky to not be afraid to face it and admit it. There are millions of women out there who know what you have been through.

In this post I'm bringing you anyBODY (closes on the October 30th) exclusives from Indented and SlackGirl, eBento-The Event (closes on October 31st) exclusives from Sintiklia and Denver's Shapes. I hope you like what I have to show you.

Until next time...happy shopping!
