Upgrade, Decisions and Processes wrapped up in Sunset Candy

Hello Lovelies,

today I would love to give you some behind the scenes insight on how I operate.
As I´ve told you I have decided on a Mesh head so I need a new skin.

 

I´ve grabbed ...idk HOW many demos and... you know me.. I´ll always be a pale-nose :P
Now I could just go around and buy all those skins (given I have the money which I don´t XD) I don´t see why I would need more than one skin and head. I´m not much of a changer, I´ve worn GlamAffair´s Cassiopeia for YEARS (not counting the breaks^^). I can alter it enough with make-ups (which I rarely do, too). Of course, if I want to shapeshift there´s a need for more skins (for my Twi`lek Char ^^), but for my everyday use? I mean I don´t have the funds to collect stuff like that anymore, plus... I don´t really change tattoos, skins and heads (even the system ones - one I wore and will be wearing on a daily basis, others I keep just for melancholic reasons as I wore them before the standard one was released - including my RL tattoos - ok I would wear those on an Alex Version of Kasha XD) .
I kinda see my chars as persons, they´re all parts of me but sometimes I dream of us sitting around a table and talk or I see Kasha or Rhian (my SW Chat RP Char - who is 1:1 Kasha just a bit ...much more of a temper than I and Kasha have - maybe as much as Kasha had back in ~2012^^) cursing me or yelling at me XD. Now... I do have ONE head, ONE skin and only so much of space for tattoos.
Hair is changeable - be it via the hairdresser or my own skilled hands (well... theoretically xD) or via wigs. The Skin and Body stays. Kasha varies her looks via fashion and all that enough for my liking ^^. If you add my VERY tiny budget (SL is pure luxury as it is for me, kind of a therapeutic creative outlet) you´ll understand why I make such a fuss out of decisions.
 I made a list in my SL Journal:

As you can see I  put 5 boxes behind the names. I´ll wear the demos 5 times now..just randomly do another round, do other stuff, slap them on again... and weed out more.
The winner will be bought :)  Current Status Quo:

 

Oh  and a dear friend of mine (hey Fiona^^) suggested Magic Fishing (amongst other fishing games) to me, cos well... I need money and as I´ve said before RL retraining, the lack of a laptop, the other hobbies and my depression keep me from looking  for a paid SL Job.
That´s what I´ve been doing for about 3 hours yesterday and am doing it right now while I type this. The Catwa Omega Relay is close I tell ya!!! YEEEY!
But after a while the sea breeze made me sleepy so I headed over to Backdrop City and threw myself into the "Day Hammock"

it was SO comfy that I stayed well into the night and way past my bedtime *oooops*^^ (more on my flickr^^)

I´m wearing :

Catwa´s Kathy Head, Maitreya´s Lara Body, AviGlam´s Vivid Eyes in Night, Lamb´s Cupid GroupGift (they have so many out...unbelievable! The group is free to join btw^^),  Chop Zuey´s She Sells She Shells Necklace, Etchaflesh´s Sookie Halter, Carol G´s Romantic Roses, Stelloane´s Boho girl dreamcatcher armwrap, FashionNatic´s Miya Skirt and KC´s Shelby Heels.

The Hut in the first pic is by DustBunny and the Day Hammock at BackDropCity is by {moss&mink} ;)

Oh and by the way. I made a blogger list where you can put your name and few details about yourself then to see who´s out there, follow others and maybe collaborate.
I can´t wait to see where this is going.

Love,
Kasha

"Alles neu macht der Mai" aka May changes everything

Hello Lovelies,

yes I know a German title is rare for me ...but it´s a saying^^
Ok so where to start... maybe here:
After SEVEN (yes, you´ve read that right... SEVEN!!!) fuckin´months of demoing, crying, ranting, cursing I managed to decide on a mesh head: Catwa´s Kathy.
Not only being the only head I liked and recognized myself with but the support group being nothing but charming, helpful and a ton of fun *grins*. Just like my Lara body this head was a surprising gift by a wonderful friend, I wish I could hug her till she´d gasp for air.
Now with that sorted I grabbed my journal to see what´s next:

• Omega Relay
• Test Bake on Mesh
• new Skin
• new Make-Up
• new AO
• continue to catalogize that damn inventory, bitch!!!

easy, right? Play LindenRealm (a friend of mine just referred me to some fishing stuff and "Lindo" to make more L$ cos I can´t commit to a regular job with a schedule atm... I just can´t, cos it would be quite the dick move to be unreliable. I´ve been unreliable enough with my beloved blog which still haunts me ;-;  *coughs... BTT!!!) make some L$ and then buy that stuff and continue to take pics, hang out, dance in clubs, cause chaos in groupchats and blog^^
But there I stood, looked at my home and couldn´t stand the sight of it so I put it away. I browsed all the other houses I had but none were acceptable atm.
I´m looking into a small, preferably one story home with a room for a bathroom, kitchen  and bedroom. Though I could do without a kitchen,.... I don´t know I guess it just has to click.  Right now Trompe L´oeil´s Haider Elevated is under consideration and... I think it was DAD´s Victorian Sunrise Cottage. Well you´ll see once I´ve decided and invested .
Now.. I know you lot are curious so let´s get to today´s pics :

I´m wearing my Bento Kasha´s Custom Perfection Shape, Catwa´s Kathy 3.2 head, AviGlam´s Melancholia Eyes in Forest, Maitreya´s Lara 4.1 body, CarolG´s R, Lamb´s Dissolved Girl Hair in Pink Ombre,  Well Made´s Shery Dress, Bowtique´s Rose Fishnet Stockings and Amacci´s June Sorbet Heels.
All of that is draped upon my Trompe Loeil - Nevaline Garden Bar and snapped with Paulina´s Fairy warm pink Windlight.
(btw - I´ll give you the names but I won´t put any links in here, just tags :P You guys are not stupid, maybe a bit lazy but this way it´s up to you if you want to shop inworld or on the marketplace ;) Either way - LOVE THOSE DEMOS!!!!!)

Now there´s a story why I picked this outfit:

I was running around Linden Realm to grab some gems and turn them into a few  L$ when I ran past a very stereotypical hiphop-hipster boy. Internally I rolled my eyes and PLOPP there was the IM - in Spanish. Now SL is an international environment. I don´t run around talking German unless I know the person I´m talking to will understand me. It´s rude to expect people to speak your language, folks.  Don´t do that! Dick move!

He threw adjectives at me (wow....) and then whinced, when I called him out on being rude. I blocked him and while answering on a forum post regarding bad pick up lines the next guy IMed me, in Spanish, too.  I know the odd word in Spanish, still. INTERNATIONAL^^ Let´s start with English, shall we? While I kindly told him to fuckoff I changed my title in my private group to "No, nope, nein;)" and donned this outfit. I meant to grab the Shery dress anyway and I will wear it on quite some occasions - as a shirt though. I´ll leave that length for a dressto others ;)

Ok folks I´ll leave you with that, I´m dead tired.
Read you soon, feel free to say hi inworld ;)

Love,

Kasha

Gizza

Hello Lovelies,

today I want to tell you about one of my favourite designers: Gizza! I think every single one of you has come across their great stuff...either on the marketplace, inworld at their store or on people walking by, maybe you own 1,2,10,... outfits of theirs already ;)

Anyways... I felt like showing of a selection of my Gizza - stuff (I might do a part 2 on this one...it´s too much for one post... trust me ;) )

This is the Spicy Leo outfit - vest, top, pants and boots included ;) ( I paired it up with .::AKA::.´s black and pink demon skin and Calico´s Hannah in HotPink for a shooting with Julia Grant *more on my flickr^^*)

 

Now I know you´ve seen this one before... it´s the Diamonds Catsuit in IceBlue that I´ve worn for my LaMode Exam outfit^^

This one´s called "Lines Attract" - and I gotta admit - it attracts me...what about you?

~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~

Now let´s continue with some summer dresses:

This, my lovelies, is the Breeze dress (rosy) - a very springy-summerish dress if you ask me. Soft and flowing yet somehow cool and urban...

I combined it with Gizza´s colorful bangles - and the upgraded version of Exxess´Arnora in blonde 3 ;) )

Same jewellery, different dress: may I introduce ...Fluffy dress in green! Is this an  awesome colour or what...

~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~

NOW! This is a little Mix-and-Match...! I´ve worn it as a casual outfit for my LaMode classes:
*Chiffon Shirts Floral Pink
*Slim Jeans Dirty Black
*Madlyn Ankle Boots

combined with ...again A&A´s Melrose and.. Finesmith´s Grace Earrings as well as Chop Zuey´s JuJu Bean Cupcake Necklace

~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~

This is the GroupGift for May - a VERY colourful, bright, sunny dress...

...that made me want to dance through the streets.

This was the June GroupGift ;) Pretty maritime and ...I can almost feel the sunrays warming my skin

 Now let´s continue with a dress I´ve shown before - the Fluffy Dress is back - in Floral pink this time. It reminded me of a warm late summer/autumn day.

To go on with my little journey through a Gizza FashionYear I´d love to introduce the Jane Series Vol. 1 - an autumnish ensemble if you ask me... a nice outfit to enjoy the last warm days.

Which leads me to the September Group Gift ... perfect for a night out with the Loved One... ;)

Lovelies, here you see the October GroupGift: the peacock dress in green - ain´t it lovely?

Now you´d never guess the month this was given as a GroupGift... it´s NOVEMBER! I´m not kidding you...I swear! I think it´s a very nice idea to give out such a joyful outfit in such a dark month...

Let me introduce you to "Magical Winter" - what can I say.... It´s as comfy as it looks, trust me ;)

~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~

This is the Alaris Red dress - the gloves are included ;) (portraied with my beloved A&A Melrose Hair in Blackberry - in a "oceanic fashion show" setting - a special setting for a special dress ;)

This very elegant gown was the GroupGift for Gizza´s first birthday... what a nice gift, isn´t it?

Let´s commence with the gowns - this one is the Mai Dress in Floral Lilac....

Black and White WindGown - a dress - perfect for warm summernights

Tell me that the stunning "GoldGown" does not enchant you... ;)

To save the best for last: this is the super-duper-overstunning Christmas GroupGift - wow it´s not easy to handle this dress I tell ya  - but it´s worth it.... THOUGH!!! If you wear it people might break their neck staring after you.... Just saying...I won´t take responsibility ;)


I hope you got some impressions of how awesome Gizza is and how their creations rock every aspect of SL Fashion ;)

eXxEsS: Aeterna

Morning Lovelies,


today I logged in to my lovely Layja sending me a new gown to tell you about:

Aeterna! I picked her Storm hair in black2 to go with it, her shape (to show it off *grins*) and AlVulo´s Barby Pale emo 2 Cleavage as a skin.

As usual the jewellery is included, the details are stunning and...have you seen this boa? Trust me it is as soft as it looks like.

I just cannot stop nuzzling my face into it *purrs, then coughs* ok...focus Akasha!

Because Layja is awesome like that she gave me the blue version as well *blows a kiss*

Let me show you the closeup...

AND! Those awesome boots are included, too.

OPOPOP Design

Hello lovelies,

today I´ll introduce OPOPOP Design, a young label with urban wear for girls that looks fresh and...it might be me...but I think it looks a bit playfull, too - in a non-girlie but cool way of course ;)

This time I decided to create an outfit out of the items I was given by the owner, Oursinette Bruun :

This is the "Red Sweet in Cyan" top, with the "Little one" Short (and armidi gisaci shoes, al vulo skin, my shape :P and eXxEsS hair)

"Yeah, baby! Show me that booty!" By the way I picked the background because... like I said... OPOPOP has a certain playfulness to me and I liked the background, it looks cool and playful at the same time...

ok...that was a tad cold for January... so I got out of the "Little One" and grabbed the "GinSmash" Jeans in Cyan, along with the "Shrub" Scarf and the "Warm-Up" ArmWarmers - both in grey this time.

Have a closer look

And this is the pretty backside ;)

NOW!!! We´re not done here...oh no no ;)

She even gave me a dress: this is "Manzarom" in green (yes it is really that dark ;) )

And the backside  - sorry...no pantyshot for you this time ;)

Where to grab all that?

take care,
