There are so many talented designers coming out with so many amazing items, Sometimes its hard to keep up.
However if you are anything like me, You cant get enough..Although i am pretty sure my inventory is about to explode.
Blueberry recently came out with a shirt, Jacket and Dress combo for cute main store release. These are just the perfect collection to start the cooler weather off. Within the hud you can turn on and off the shirt for the jacket and have a quite a few colours with the hud fatpack. The dress itself is just so snuggly fitted and really has that perfect curve to the mesh body.

Reign and Besom had some fun recently collabing on a kitty cat inspired outfit, Complete with hair/mask/Tail and body suit. They even made some adorable nails, These i loved so much.
The hair by Besom is just the right kinda wave and with the option of having the mask with the hair was a perfect choice. Its important to note although i loved this whole set, However the blogger in me likes to mix and match.

Reign also released a cute pair of kitty stockings for FLF, They have a hud for white and black stocking options and even have a few paw colour options for the bottom of the feet.

Again i have fallin in love with Veechi makeup and really encourage anyone who havent seen this brand to search them out. I am so impressed with them.

Black Bantam has a way of producing these adroable animals that u want to cuddle forever, The kitties released at 11:11 event are no exception. These pets are so funny and also interactive, You have so many options to use when you click them. I personally could spend hours exploring them. (if only i had the time.) If you are in the market for another attachable pet you wont wanna take off, Check these out.

Dear SL...

Are you sick of that Autumn feel yet or are you loving it like me?
Autumn if you haven't already guessed/Read is my fave time of the year, Everything about it; From the falling colour changed leaves that represent a renewal or the cozy/comfy clothes. It just feels like its the season that has magic in the very air.

The Seasons change is always a beautiful thing, But none more so than Autumn.
As i said with magic in the air, I decided to take a stroll to the popular event The Seasons Story at the start of the month.
There were so many cute things to start this season off and I have yet to show you even half of the goodies that could be yours.

Astralia is always so imaginative and really brings an impressive amount of inspiration from each item. The releases at season story are no different.
Lets start with the scarf, It has this cute win swept look to it with leaves floating off. This promotes the whimsical feel of the soft wind as you walk through the falling leaves of this new season.
Than add in the umbrella and you are ready for a season change with a bang.
The technical details of this set are that both items have colour change options on multiple parts and the umbrella itself has a rain function. (However you can turn this off in the hud but please bare in mind the rain comes with sound effects and these are rather loud)

Another thing i love about Autumn is the warm feeling of freshly cooked food and of course hot chocolate.
Tentico has us covered for the food part at least with their release of Autumn inspired food gacha.
Within this gacha you will find items such as pies and the like but my favourite was the chestnuts.
All the foods are so highly detailed and perfect for feeling as though you might actually be there to smell those fresh roasting nuts at a market as you walk home with them in your hand as the slightly cooler winds nip at your nose.

There is just so much i could go on and on but i know i am beginning to ramble and all you want to do is get your shop on. So please enjoy.

Music of the moment: This band and song lyrics really make me feel so much.

Dear SL...

Sometimes as blogger, you search through your inventory and current events but yet nothing inspires or works.
However other times inspiration hits you like a lighting bolt, This is one of those times for me.

Besom has been producing some pretty cool styles of late and i couldn't go pass the one released earlier this month at Salem.
I just love the hat style and the looping tie all the way down the hair, I am a sucker for a cute hat hair.
As always besom has their own unique texture style and this has to be one of my favourites produced by her to date.
Salem is almost over however if you are quick there is still time to go snatch this wig and a few other things along the way before the event closes completely.
Salem has been one of the best events for this time of the year and i really hope it comes back next year.

As always Half Deer releases the cutest themed items on the grid, Her decore/animals make it such a delight and breeze to blog.
I just love how universal all her stuff is and it defiantly is one of my first go to stores when being inspired.
This release for Kawaii Project is no different, The little baby black birds are just adorable.

I also want to mention these kick ass heels i got from Reign, They were released for the Epiphany event.
This is a rare in a gacha, However you wont be disappointed. The heels are so detailed yet soft looking and honestly i have been looking for a pair like this for a while now.
They are designed to work with the garter socks, Which also come in shorter style (Pictured above) or long stocking style.

The rest i will leave you to check out on your own...

Dear SL...

I love taking time out and drawing or painting in real life, Seems my av enjoys it too.
Personally i have that dream of having a lake side house with sun and painting in my art room.
This is really all that inspired this blog look.

Taketomi just keeps hitting it out the ball park with the recent releases, I feel like i never want to take them off, But sadly i have to other wise you guys would get sick of me blogging same hair over and over.
This jenna hair is just so perfect, I love the fly away hair details with this meshing and as always the textures on this brands hairs are second to none.

Reign has always been a shoe store that stays up with the styles and changing technology of secondlife itself.
Having said this their huds for their shoes are just adorable, So many colours to choose from.
The shoe release featured is a main store release and is perfect for an evening dress or a more slightly sexy outfit.
You can change the sole, and main shoe colour which makes it easy to mix/match with outfits.

I recently discovered the makeup brand Veechi, I have to tell you guys i am blow away. I love this brand so much already and i know it will now be my go to for makeup layers.
Veechi has all sorts of styles already, Although because i am a sucker for glitter...The ones that contain the glitter effect are my favourite.
This brand offers all kinds of options such as system layers, Catwa and a few more, Check them out and be rest assured you will be seeing more of this brand from me.

Last but not least i wanted to take a moment and tell you about Glamrus pose store, Its likely you already know this brand however if you don't, you really should.
The poses they offer are so natural looking and inspirational, A bloggers/Photographers dream to work with.

Music of the moment: This band makes me happy.

Burley released this sleek half up bun and i honestly love it, It has a plait very subtly down one side.
As always the mesh work is flawless and the textures have so many options for colours, Everyone is bound to find one they love. This hair also has a small hairband hud to match it to your outfit.

I am a big fan of bindi's and with the release of many hairs by Besom at Epiphany, The designer also released a few other objects in the gachas.
One of those items was this cute gem bindi, It comes with a few colour change options in a hud.

Speaking of new cute jewellery Amala also released this tiny heart nose stud, Its a perfect simple addition for those like me that like to have a nose piercing but not one that detracts from everything else.

Its not often i find new stores as a blogger that i am not aware of, But going to swag event i found these fun tip toe sneakers by Phedora. This brand releases a full pack of all options in each shoe for one price, This eliminates the need for deciding which one you really want.

I went for a simple artsy style look to this picture because sometime i feel it demands more attention from us than a cluttered scene.

Music of the moment: I still really love this band.
