The shoe expo was today and I had an okay time. It’s always great when they have big sim sales or shopping events like these because when you really need to splurge these are the places. They have new upcoming designers, old favourite designers, lost but not forgot designers and designers we didn’t even know about! The one thing I do have to say is. When you’re being featured at any expo (this is for designers) do you change your texture size? I found some stores took a lot long for me to rez than others. I lowered my draw distance and all. The thing is that I’m even publicly speaking about this is that, the rez time was longer than the skin expos that I’ve been too! That’s bad! Lol... in my opinion. That’s my only dis I have to say! My look goes around these boots that I have been trying to find for a while now. They’re from J’s and I swear I read on someone’s post that they were from N-Core. Here I was cursing the Second Life’s Gods Name in vain because I couldn't’t find the boots at her sim for the life of me! Well perhaps they weren’t from there??? That might have been why!
I went with Madsys fur vest for some spunk because we all know I’m loving the fur! Then I wore Ohmais leggings. I can’t help it! I tried to find some new leggings but I always go back to hers, sorry guys! I just can’t be fresh! Then I’m wearing BOONs hair! I love this style and cut. It’s a dangerous look, you can’t trust a person who wont reveal their eyes. It’s so mysterious! I’m wearing Nylon Outfitters OLD OLD turtleneck! Frilly turtleneck is it’s actual name! I adore this sweater, it’s very cute and sweet, tres chic! I’m wearing emerys skirt called Fast Car. This is the tricky thing about buying her skirts, I bought this one and it also came with the light green high waisted skirt. So... just make sure you buy the right one lol. This item is perfect for my blog! DO YOU REMEMBER THIS BAG! *points to detail* Naughty?! Lost!? Cutest purse ever! I love the whole tiny tiny vintage purses right now. My moms from Trinidad and Tobago, she has a few from when she was a girl and I wear them all the time! Great for the bar when you only want to carry you’re cell phone, lipstick, money and id’s. It’s somewhat like a clutch this bag and it has a bunch of cute stuff tucked away inside. It was an old classic and now I hope everyone will go out and buy it! I love this bag!! I forgot how much I adored it and it brings back old old memories!! EEEE! Fun stuff
Let’s talk more about the shoes okay?
1. KOOKIE – Athena – These shoes remind me of a prettier more casual version of Alexander McQueens’ 12-inch shoes/boots. Her reviled them in Paris this year for his 2010 collection I believe. The thing is people are ranting that they’re ugly! I love them! In every way! Kookie I give you a tip of the hat for one, thinking outside the box. Two, being creative and original. Three, for being the leader of shoe designs. I mean every shoe she has came out with I haven’t disliked. I’m sure they’re are others like Annex (another top of the line shoe designer) that are constantly staying with the trends and not creating the same ole heel, base or stiletto. Kookie! These shoes are truly to die for, sl wise. I love the big bulky toe in the front with the platform front. The high boot that creates a smooth sock looking style. The chain with her trademark K is a cute add-on. The seam texture in the front of the boot is really pretty and the band/belt is great with all the shading.
2. *GF* Long Fur Cuff Boots, I love! I find them really cute for fall and winter. I love the suede texture she used and the little texture fur cuff above the boot. The height is what i was really attracted too. The platform boot is a little stripperish but it’s cute. Not everyone likes to look cutie kawaii chic like me. I’m really liking the whole scrunched look. The shading again on this boot is wonderful. She has a Christmas theme boot in this style, red and white though. Great if you want to recreate the scene from Mean Girls when they’re singing Santa baby. That’s what that reminded me of, lol. Great boots.
3. *GF* Another great shoe by GF. The Anna boot, I have them in gray and black. I’m really liking the sculpted bow she used for this boot. Ankle boots are my favourite right now. On both of the shoes they have an outline colour around the belt and bow. For the black it has red, for the gray boot it has purple. Those four are my favourite colours that’s why I selected these boots. It has a cute sculpted bow that’s huge rather than a little tiny guy. It’s really different because of the bow and the base style. It’s not like a regular boot, it has a some what of a sock/heel style shape to it. Which I’m really liking. It’s different. Great textures and shading.
4. YS&YS – Stiletto Open Shadow –I really loved the shape of these shoes and the texture. I don’t have this kind of style of shoes in my inventory. I had to get these
5. YS&YS Another heel from them, Cala Saona2 Ocelot. I love the animal print of these shoes. I have their zebra one that I bought from their store. The little tie bow on the front with the leather toe is really cute. The seam that breaks the textures from animal print too leather is a little split but that’s nothing we cant overlook from this adorable shoe!
6. [PM] Lace and Studded – These shoes really stood out to me. The front textures that create that scrunched leather look. The studs on that go around base of the bootie. I like the string prims they used. I can’t tell if they’re sculpted or not, they look it. The shading between the leather and the studs is a great plus too! The little details on these heels really matter and that’s why I love them so much. They stand out and scream buy me! They’re adorable! Check out the Opal colour! Just in the laced version. You get either or when you buy a shoe. Lace vs. Lace and studded, you decide!
7. Annex – I know you’ve all seen them so let’s keep this short. BEST BOOTS ALIVE! The grungy feeling you get from them, but still a high fashion look. The rough leather textures, the clasps buckles and laces! Great pair of boots, I bought both the packs!
8. J’s – Ankle Boot! Loving the smooth sleek look of these boots. You’ve seen this one many times on the blogs!
9. Maitreya! Shanti!! Now I’ve seen their heels, stilettos, etc. The fact is that these style of shoes are the best from them. They’re not too technical and not too overly done! They’re just right. I’m loving the sculpted ties at the back of the shoe! The HUD that comes with these heels is really easy to use (Best part about it) Tons of different nail colours! I love the cris-cross front of the strap the cute little tie above the toes! Everything about this hoe I love! It’s perfect and something I would buy irl.
10. Maiu Haus Snow Boots – Loving the comfort look of this. I know people hate the UGG looking boots but these are so cute! Note the shading around the belt! The fur above the boot! I can see my avatar wearing these boots a lot because of these two things. It’s really cute and comfy, very casual! Can wear it with anything!!!
That’s it and I’m exhausted! I have nothing else dreamy to say about shoes.
Stay classy second life.

I log on this morning to an interesting IM, saying “Hello I can’t get to your location it says ‘failed to grant capabilities’ was I banned?” You’re only banned from my land if you are a copybotter or rip skins. So I try to tp home to figure out what’s the issue... It gives me the same message! WTF O M G ! 2ND LYFE!! I R BUSINESS LADEH! But second life just doesn’t care. It seems the sim went down and now no one can get in? Hmmm... Another addition to my rage for the day.
