Just a sweet look for a month's end composed of a lot of great items I have snagged at various events around the grid. Most are still going strong, some end in the next few days, so don't wait to get out there and visit while the crowds are thinning and the shopping is lag free and stress free at the same time. Among my favorite events are My Attic at The Deck, where everything is less than $100L, and the Cosmetics Fair Beach Party, where you can change up your whole look with some brilliant little additions to your favorite skins. I love discovering new to me content creators, and both events are full of wonderful examples of new content and new to me brands. Happy end of the month shopping day everyone!

.ploom. has a bouquet of lovely new wigs available at the Hair Fair, which opens tomorrow. With 4 brand new styles, and all sorts of lovely little optional accessories, .ploom. will always be a favorite of mine. This brand new Honey style from .ploom. is just sweet and feminine, and comes with a lovely floral hairband accessory, which is optional, but can be changed via HUD into more than half a dozen color options, and either a gold or silver setting. I went full on sweet floral with this look, and it just feels so fresh, and just a little bit retro at the same time. Get ready to get your hair did, Hair Fair opens in a number of hours!

Lately there have been a number of friends who have been talking about the things they treasure most, and the heartbreak that comes when those things are lost or broken. I know what they mean, and it doesn't necessarily correlate to a monetarily valuable item. It could be your Grandmother's Pyrex Pie Plate, or your Mother's Wedding China. It might be that lock of hair that came from your child's first haircut, or even that first lost baby tooth. The point is, these things cannot be bought, they don't mean much to others, but they mean the world to us because of the person who they came from. Second Life is an odd place to find precious possessions, but a lot of us are holding on to inventory that we may have purchased when n00bs, or even an items that was from a loved content creator that cannot be replaced. Think about the things you treasure most in life, I doubt they are about the money.
This look is an instant favorite, partially because it is a dress from my own sister's shop [Girl Thursday], but because it is instantly elegant and so easy to wear. Better yet, 100% of the cost of this Exclusive Color dress goes directly to the Fashion For Life charity event. The shoes, from a long time favorite Bliensen + MaiTai, are equally brilliant, They come in scripted HUD multipacks with 6 different tones in a color range, plus gem and sole color options. Another FFL donation item, as is this lovely wig from *~*Damselfly*~*.
Below you will find all the shopping details, including the teleport to mainstore locations. To get a TAXI directly to the store at the Fashion For Life event, click on the Fashion For Life link after the item name/description so those lindens can really add up as donations to Relay For Life of Second Life. Happy Shopping!

Well, I went, I looked, I found... heaps of fun at the 'Magic of OZ' Easter Egg Hunt. I spent a lot of time collecting eggs so I could show you all of the awesome stuff that can be won from the prize options from each vendor, and I plan to go back and get more eggs just as soon as I can. Yesterday(-ish) I told you all about how the hunt works [HERE]. Today it is all about the goodies! You can also check out the Ozimals Blog for more information.
Lets start off with this amazingly sweet Cheeky Bunny Dress from *katat0nik*. Each time you redeem a stack of eggs at *katat0nik*, you will receive one of three color versions of this dress. It comes in a Black version, a Brown version, and a Sky Blue look too. All are amazing and well worth the effort of finding just 6 little eggs. On my wrists you can see some adorable bangles from +Half-Deer+, I believe there are two versions, one is called Bunny, the other is Pysanka, and they come with both wrist versions in the box.
All the cracked eggs you see are prizes from Schadenfreude, each a version of Burd's Breakfast. So far I have found three versions, but I believe there are possibly more. You can re-size them and decorate your little nest for Easter too. The little Burds are gifts from ~Silent Sparrow~, they come in sets of two, and there are three sets to collect. Again, you can treasure them or display them, re-size them as you like. The two cushions, pink and blue, and the blanket and pillow set are from Pixel Mode. All have poses in them and are great for a picnic in the park or around the house.
Around my feet you may have noticed a number of bouncy little Bunnies. These are the famous Ozimals Bunnies, and I have found two types so far, Magic and Faith, and they can hatch into lop, half-lop, or regular eared versions of these special Russian Egg printed versions. They sure can jump, it was like herding marbles in my studio box to get them into the pictures. What is wonderful is that you can get not just the bunnies as prizes, but things they need too. This is the same for the Ozimal Pufflings, a sort of bird like animal, also in the hunt. You can get love potions, food, treats, totems, potions and other necessities for breeding these little sweeties. So what are you waiting for -- get hunting!
Taxi To Starting Point & Munchkin Land!
[Also available, but not shown here, are three special Bunny Nosed Skins, for Men and Women, from Fallen Gods Inc. All lovely and worth the hunt time.]

There is a wonderful Egg Hunt going on right now in the Magic of Oz SIM in Second Life. This is the first hunt I have participated in since my return to SL over 8 weeks ago, after a 4 year abscence, and boy have things changed - for the better. No more grid hopping madness, this is a one SIM wonderful experience. Hosted by the amazing Content Creators on the SIM, including GRID favorites like Ozimals, Silent Sparrow, Schadenfreude, and Katot0nik, among many more, the prizes are all beutiful items worth coveting, and you can spend as much or as little time collecting as you like. It all starts at the main TP point HERE.
Once you teleport in, grab up a free basket (in regular or small sizes for the wee SL folks), by touching the sign at the start of the Yellow Brick Road. You can't miss it. Attach the basket to your avatar by wearing it, and get your hunt on. All you have to do is spot one of the many colored eggs about the SIM, touch it (or right click and then touch if it's being tricky) and it will appear in your little basket. Once you have collected just 6 eggs, a pop-up menu will appear, and allow you to pick the shop you want your prize from. There are nine choices to be had, one for each participating shop in Munchkin Land.
You will then be offered an 'Egg Stack' from the shop you have chosen. At this point, you can either stop hunting and go visit the shop, or keep on hunting, and collect more and more stacks of eggs. To collect your prizes, you visit the shop in Munchkin Land, and stand close to the big Easter Basket in the shop. Add the egg stack to your Avatar, it will end up on your head. Then click on the stack of eggs sitting on your head while within 2m of the basket and you will be given a prize. Some shops have several different prizes, delivered at random, so you may have to visit a few times if you want them all. But I assure you, all the prizes are lovely and each one is worth the trip.
The 'Egg Stack' once used, may detach itself from your avatar, or you may detach it yourself, and then it will no longer work. You can then delete it or put it into a folder as a decorative item. Every six collected eggs brings up the menu, and a new stack can be collected. There are no limits. The eggs are also a Temp-Rez type item, so even if someone gets there before you do, it is only a matter of time before another pops up in the same place. They can be found on the ground, in the shops, in little hiding spots like up in trees or near windows, or even underneath objects. Look high and low, and have FUN!
Big thanks to all the vendors participating in the hunt, I know how difficult it is to arrange an event that is SIM wide, and to make it fun and rewarding. Explore the SIM, do some shopping, and if it is your first visit to OZ, I assure you, it won't be your last! Thanks go out to ~Silent Sparrow~, Schadenfreude, Cubic Cherry, Fallen Gods Inc., Ozimals Pufflings, Ozimals Bunnies, *katat0nik*, Pixel-Mode, & +Half-Deer+.
