Fat Tony's Olive Oil Company Presents:

snippetsandstories — Fri, 08 Jun 2012 20:28:33 -0400

It’s Friday and for me that means I’ll be performing at Fat Tony’s tonight! I’ll be bending the time period rules a bit this evening to do a 50’s beach babe set. The show starts at 6pm SLT and there will be three other fabulous performers for your entertainment. Some scoot down to the speakeasy and sip on some hooch with us!

Went and got another chunk of the Mesh Around Hunt completed today. I loved re-discovering the Uma skin (found here for free) so much that I decided to keep using it for the pictures today too. In the first photo the pants are part of an outfit in the prize at Echo. The beaded necklace is from Aura and it comes with a regular version and a version for bigger breasts so you don’t have to do all the messy moving and rotating yourself! This mint colored bustier is from Ingenue and the hunt prize also comes with a pink version. The bangles are from 22769 and are the female prize for the Silk Road Hunt.

L.A. here I come! This shirt, baseball cap, and faded jeans are all from the enormous hunt prize at Pirate Arts. Definitely makes me think of some dope threads from the 90’s. Other than these items there is also another shirt and some very cute red high-waist capris with white Day of the Dead skulls on them.

You can get the SLURLS and all the details at the hunt blogs here:

I was able to work in a quick bit of hunting today! The Mesh Around Hunt is on and kickin’. Saw a lot of people out on the trail as I was hunting and for good reason! There are definitely some good finds. I absolutely love this tank that is from Geometry. It does have a little alpha gap near the cleavage, but it looks best if you are wearing the small size. The hair is from Discord Designs and you can get the “light” and “dark” color packs on the hunt. My adorable skirt is from Evolve and you will pick it up at the first hunt location. You can pick up these orange and gold bangles on the Silk Road Hunt at 22769.

OH! and the skin is called “Uma” and it by ROCKBERRY. You can pick up (in 3 different skin tones) at the FabFree HQ for 0L!

/me comes up for Tumblr air.

Hi everyone! I have been watching all the awesome blogs out there and getting great ideas from Tumblrs but I haven’t had the time to post! I’m almost done with the 2nd week in my first summer class and it is INTENSE! But I have been able to find time to pick up a few awesome things for the burlesque show Friday at Fat Tony’s. The sexy military jumper (which is a dress too if you prefer it that way!) is from Sassy and it’s part of the Drafted! Hunt (which also has a mesh camo corset I adore!). This hair is from Artilleri on the marketplace and is definitely worth the low price! The texture of the hair is nice and the bandanna comes with so many color options.

Come out and join us for some witty and fun burlesque!

Shape: Jasmine- Filthy - 0L May group gift (the Filthy group is free to join right now so get in before it goes back up, not sure when that’s happening) Also, modifiable to suit your tastes.

Skin : ALBA 3.0 in MILK 10 - MOJO -399L + optional 190L for cleavage layers

Freckles : Swanky - 1L (don’t just look like blackheads! hurrah!)

Hair : Trixie - Artilleri - 200L

Lingerie : Decadence - Lingerie by Hollee - 10L

Shoes : Super Girl -Maai - 0L group gift (not sure that these are still available)

Hi everyone! You’ll have to forgive me for being a bit behind on my posts. Got a lot going on all at once! Coming up on May 18, I’m going to give Burlesque a go! For this reason, I’ve been lurking on the marketplace all weekend looking at awesomely cheap lingerie…

First Look- This corset and stockings are part of a much larger outfit that is absolutely FREE on the marketplace here. I got the flower pasties in a 6 pack for 50L here but you can also buy them individually for 10L each.

Second Look- A very pretty black and white lingerie set available here for 0L!

Last Look- I just love the color of this set! And, I also love this lingerie designer, Hollee! You can find this particular look, known as Deliquency, here for 10L. In the Lingerie by Hollee marketplace store 10L-30L are the standard prices for ALL of her lingerie sets, so be sure to check out some of the other awesome sets available while you are there.

Hair-Magika-Safe (not free)

Skin-MOJO-BCE Milk (not free but it is on clearance near the front wall of the store)

P.S. - If you have done any SL Burlesque or know anyone who has drop me a line and let me know about any tips/tricks you might give a newcomer! Daki Lapin

Hey guys! It’s that time of the month… group gift time, of course! What were you thinking? ANYWAY, I wanted to show you something a little different. These nails are available at the Group Member Lucky Chairs in Candy Nails. They also have a really neat group gift out, especially if you do any sort of fairy/fantasy/flower related looks. :) I especially love their nails that come with rings. These items have all been out during the month of April and are likely to be changing soon. So get over there if you haven’t already!

I’ve also been playing with GIMP for the first time lately so let me know if you have any tips/tricks! <3

Well guys and gals, the Mexico A Go Go hunt is ending on Saturday May 5. So, if you don’t have time to see it all, at least go to the hunt site, take a look at their preview pictures, and pick up the items you love the best. They really do have some awesome+quality items. Take all this great furniture for instance, each set only costs you 1L on the hunt.

Also, a note for the ladies out there. Be sure to unpack and try on the men’s gifts. Both pairs of pants, as well as the orange t-shirt, in these photos are from some of the guy’s freebies!

What are you waiting for!? Grab your margarita, hit the Covert Hunts Blog and tp to your favorite new freebies!

An important part of a Cheap Second Life is trying to make money in world. This past weekend I had my first gig hostessing and now I’m going to give dancing a try tonight, from 6-8 SLT, at Gutter Bunny NightClub. More importantly we’ll be having fun with my sl sis Crafty hostessing, DJ Tina spinning music, and myself swinging around the pole! Come on over and hang out with us and check out the new club!

Today is the last day of the Pose Fair so make sure you check it out. There ARE free poses you just have to be thorough, since not all of the stores have gifts. Also, check signs near the doors to make sure they aren’t low priced poses (i.e. 5L etc.)

Pose Fair North

Pose Fair South

ALSO! There is a Pose Fair Photo Contest via Flickr. The first prize is 15,000L, second prize is 10,000L, and third prize 5,000L!!!! Of course, there are already 1000+ entries but it’s still a fun way to pass SL time and build up your photography skills. Plus, who know? Your picture might just have enough charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent to win! ;)

Hey ya’ll! It’s that time of year when everyone is busy, busy, busy so I’m sure you understand why I haven’t been posting as much. However, I’m glad I found the time to head over to the Fantasy/Medieval/Role Playing sim Fantavatar to check out what Holiday Gifts I could find! Turns out, they have a festive tree surrounded by presents of all sorts. There are holiday decorations, outfits, shoulder pet, etc.! I took a few quick pictures of the amazing mistle-toe, elven-ish, rustic bed that was a free gift from {Mole End} and the tartan-esque red and green outfit was a gift from Muse and Moragh. Pick up your goodies before the holiday is over. Happy Holidays All!!

While you’re on the sim, come on down to Hanaris, the medieval RP area where I’ve been learning about and taking part in some amazing role play. It’s a new sim with welcoming people and plenty of room so come by the tavern and have a pint, eh?

Hey ya’ll! I’m trying something new today. I’ve been spending a lot of my free time at the always fabulous Club Pride and I’ve been inspired by all the sexy guys there to have a guy-friendly post.

Here’s a sort of rock-a-billy outfit inspired by the awesome shirt that was a group gift from Hell Bop. At the entrance to the main store there is also a box full of FREE shapes, including Robbie that I’m wearing here. You can’t see the awesome Chuck Taylors very well but they are definitely worth the 19L!
