Word of the Day: BUTTCAPE!!!!




Everyone say it with me now... BUTTTTTCAPEEEEEE!!! I was shopping one day at Kawaii Jelly and I saw these cape things, i thought they were adorable, but as soon as i saw they were named "Butt Cape" I just squealed in delight and HAD to buy it. I remember my friend who was with me, started to shake his head and say "only you would get excited over clothes cus of a name" . Rofl, and it's so true, i ADORE cute things and this Butt Cape is one of the most adorable things i own. Leopard print on the inside, black on the outside, it comes with a prim belt attached and teeeny tiny booty shorts (because you just CAN'T wear only the cape now can you??)



I've had this item for quite sometime and keep meaning to blog i, but never got around to it (i say this for the other 25K items i have sitting in my inventory), one day I'll get to them all!! I did a very simple pairing for the ButtCape, i was initially going to only do the topless pic, but i figure i might as well do a look in case someone needed a "jump off" point of how to wear it. I adore these amerie's Naughty's arm warmers, the hair has been all over the blogs and i wont be the last to gush all over it, the skin is a gift from Tuli.. who spoils us rotten and i ADORE her for it.

Speaking of freebies ... I'm a fan of Shopping Cart Disco's SLsecret and read it pretty much every week. This last week, secret #5 honestly pissed me off. I love freebies as much as the next person, and as an example Tuli always gives away the best gifts, but i hate the thought of people just picking up her gifts without ever spending anything at her stores. I've been buying skins from Tuli since the days of her S3 line and have no plans to stop, plus i buy and give away gift cards from her for friends. I appreciate Tuli's talent and I'm an avid fan. This goes for a ton of other creators on the grid that I'm a huge fan of and WILL shop regardless of what gifts are given.
Also, sometimes.. I find myself tossing most of the freebies I get from hunts (not the great ones mind you!!)

So what's the point of this rambling you ask?? Nada, I just wanted to send out a huge THANK YOU to the designers who give away quality freebies in appreciation of their customers. We adore you and we DO shop at your stores <3

Alrighty then! With that said, on to the details.

Like A Boy




Ladies... I think it's time to switch roles. With Valentine's Day fast approaching, I'm sitting here, remember some of the boys in my life. What if i wasn't the good girl i most certainly am, what if i acted more like a boy, what if i played, cheated and never gave a fuck. Would the boys then sat around and waited on me? Suffice to say i NEVER waited for a boy.. well maybe 1... fine..maybe 2 but only because i was "in love", but at the same time, boys seem to have a knack for being dickheads and never giving a flying fuck! Not to say there aren't bad girls out there ( simmer down boys), but this isn't about that right now. I've been listening to Ciara's "Like a Boy" over and over most of this morning and put together an outfit inspired by the song.



Not to say i wanna be a player today, but wonder if i did, would things have been different. Bleh, i could never compromise myself or stoop to the level some of my EX's have.
So I bet you guys are going "wtf Bubs.. this i suppose to be a FASHION post, why are you babbling???" and my answer is.. well cus this is my blog and i can babble like that!! *smiles wide* But i will be talking about the outfit.. here's another look at it *big cheesy smile again*



I'm diggin the baggy pants, which i NEVER wear anymore in RL.. but used back in Jr High (rofl @ those days) and the shirt is body hugging sexy. They're both from
[ JP ] DESIGN, who i found one day just TPing around. JP lists themselves as grunge/neko wear with an assortment of shirts, tanks, shoes and cute Neko things. I bought these pants for one reason only... THE IPOD!!! It's wayyy cute attached to the high textured belt, and the pants and ipods come in about 5 color, all changeable with a drop down script menu (which i appreciate), detailed pockets all over the paints and a well made chain to the side complete with wallet and dollar bills sticking out (damn thats cute!!), the shirt comes 3 colors to a pack and prim rolled up sleeve and a carton of cigs. I gotta say, the clothing is detail orientated AND simple at the same time, and it just works



See those super BAD ASS rings I'm sporting!??? The pink one is my very own BUBBLES' Ring made by my girl Kieran Debevec, who JUST opened her first store CHLOE in the new Phoenix Rising sim (claps rapidly.. YEAAA KIER!!!!) When Kier first started making jewelry, she asked me for a project, and i said i wanted a HUGE ring, a "IN YOUR FACE - gaudy as hell - look at me look at me - I ROCK" kinda ring with a canary yellow Diamond. And she made it for me!!! You can now find it at her store CHLOE (along with some yum yum freebies she's set out) in different metal settings AND its scripted to change diamond colors. Did I mention she made the ring for my RIGHT hand without me asking (cus you know, dont want the boys to see me sporting it on my left, might think im attached ) GOD SHE ROCKS!!!!

The other is by Dango Jewel (FabulouS).. who i btw.. own everything of! Dango has a way of making retro 80s style jewelry with a modern twist. I find myself rocking her stuff hardcore, and this wide and pinky ring are certainly no different.

I said i wanted to dress like a boy.. but lets face it, i cant leave the PINK behind!! I gave it all a feminine touch with my pink scarf and head band on my hair. I was searching PINK TIMBERLANDS but couldn't find any (if you know where i can find some or wanna make me some.. drop me a HI inworld!!) so instead I'm sporting my Ubu Pink Rain Boots... yea I'm rocking it!!

*Throws up the deuces and hummms "like a boy" on the way out* Til next time girlies and boys!

Barbie Girl



I just realized its been AGES since I've blogged. RL has totally consumed my life the last few weeks. I moved in with my parents to save money..since the economy is like shit these days. Bye-bye to walking around my living room naked, or cooking at 2 am just because I'm hungry. My parents are asleep by 11pm and I have to be quiet after that.. it's SOOO WEIRD!!! My sister's and father's birthday were last week as well, along with a bday party for my baby sister.. with some of our closest friend, getting drunk and playing Cranium til 3am. Lol, RL is good!!!!

Anyhoo, to the post!! It's a quick one, but i haven't been in game lately..so I've had the same thing on for.. days, very different for me i know. Since I've been known to change every single day! The top... i adore, it's very simple and actually is a part of a dress, but i adored the top portion so much i've been wearing it with pants. It was a gift to bloggers from Aranel Ah (wooot ty Aranel!!) of *BOOM in honor of her new Main Store and will be officially available as a dollarbie opening day (feb 20th). I adddddddore BOOM clothing, so i was all about ripping open my package as soon as it was dropped! I paired the top with the gorgeous leather pants from Fishy Strawberry and heels from AW Design. I don't know why, but I've been in love with white hair... or very platinum blond, it just works with my dark skin, i feel very Barbie Girl.. or Barbarella (worlds GREATEST MOVIE!!) in it. Its simple but its what I've been running around in when i am in game. I'm almost settled now, though my closet and room here looks like a tornado hit it, but i like living in chaos. Its when things are organized i have NO IDEA where things are.

On to the details.. and looks like I'm back to being online on a semi regular basis.. WOOT!!
