Mix and match

Mix’n’match

There’s so much happening across SL at the moment and, of course, I have so little time. I’m starting a new job tomorrow and have been furiously trying to get organised while perfecting the art of making lemon butter (I’m not organised at all but my lemon butter is 10 out of 10 on the tangy scale).

One of the most clever time saving ideas inworld of late was the ‘shadow’ walls at the Hair Fair 2012 — I could stand in the middle of a shop and walk entire lengths through the walls without exiting and entering (if you do this, remember to keep your radar open so you don’t sideswipe anyone in your path). As usual, though, the avs with a load count more than 100,000 in bling slowed the sim — I know not everyone reads the notecards or the official web site guidelines for events but who needs to wear jewellery, glasses and headpieces?

I bought some frocks and mesh eyes from the One Voice event to raise funds for Gala Phoenix, owner of Curio Skins. I’ve read around the traps that more than $US20,000 has been raised for Gala’s legal campaign and — in even more good news — designers have put more new items out for sale.

The set I’m using from Tableau Vivant is from Fairy Tales 2012 and my make-up and headpiece are from the current Couturier’s Docks collection at SaliMar.

Oh, and the Hope for Emilia event starts today to raise funds following the earthquakes in Italy in May and June. I’ve already set up a photo backdrop for AD Creations’ 50s goth swimsuit so do not get in my way of Aliza’s display when I’m waving my lindens :-).

I know there’s plenty more on but I need to get to the gym, get my tax return ready, find the information needed to start my job tomorrow and then quell my panic with another batch of lemon butter :-).
