 Sn@tch has this great freebie currently, though not sure how long for, up at their store. It may be the middle of winter here in Ohio yet in SL we can enjoy a good pair of booty shorts all year long. Even better when they are they are snow melting hot. You can pick up an additional variety of colors for each, the shorts or the halter, in the store. A huge purchase for me this past week are these shoes by Juicy. I actually took the demos for her classic pump and the slingback and debated for a good hour or so while playing with them. I was unable to get both, but I knew I had to have one of the Everything packs for one of these shoes. I went with the classic pump for the oddest reason, but it was simply what I would have chosen in real life! Now most of the time in SL I am wearing things I would never be able to wear in real life, nor would I try. Yet thats how I decide on shoes? Er, as Kerra would say "Ok George!" I think she has some secret crush on someone named George and is displacing that on me. Back on track... Another huge purchase, this was the week for it, was a skin bundle pack from Redgrave. I actually went to the store and purchased every demo set for every pale tone they had. Took them home and spent, well, too long, trying each set of skins on to see just which bundle I had to have. I finally settled it down to two, Jennifer and Moon. Since Jennifer was more practicle I decided on adding Moon to my 'save up for' list. Its a short list, I try to keep up.  Anyone that has ever skin shopped with me knows that I am a royal pain in the neck about them. After almost 5 years in Second Life I have on all accounts been faithful to my choice in a skin for long periods of time. The first being 2 years. Yes, 2 years in the same skin. I currently now only use 4 different designers for skin purchases. Thats slowly changing as I have stopped being quite so stubborn about changing my shape here and there to work with a skin. There in lay the problem of the past, I wanted to find a skin that simply fit with my shape and needed no tweeking or managing. Now I have different shapes for different skins and am fast learning how people can end up with hundreds of skins in their inventory! A few minor adjustments (seriously, very minor changes thank goodness) and above is the results. Well smack me and call me Jennifer, I think I love it.
