I Love

This Skin

So Much.

This skin. I can't even tell you how much I love it. It's by JM:Mai. I'm wearing the [n] shade (I am assuming that stands for nude). To me, this skin screams cuteness, but not just cuteness. There's something fantastical and sweet about it too. I'd like to think if Princess Peach were an av (and not those badly textured ones you find on XStreet), she'd wear this skin. Just because it is her. And I don't care that this skin reminds me of Princess Peach. I love it anyway. Especially since it really fits me, it does!

My final words: Check out JM:Mai for your skin needs. Demo them all (there were alot there I didn't like and heaven knows no one wants to end up with something that looks strange or doesn't fit who you are). Definitely check out this skin too. I really can't imagine it looking bad on any av. Oh I forgot to tell you what the skin is called? Vivian.

"Rosie, do yo chores!"

Hi-Ho! Hi-Ho! It's off to work I go!


Working hard? Or hardly working?


All work & no play makes Rosie a dull girl!

My final words: Whoa Rosie! You don't normally do a 'my final words' for photo posts! Well, I'm gonna now. Why? Because I love this skin. It reminds me of kittens, and cotton candy, and everything good in the world. Definitely go down to Romi and check out all the skins there, because I can tell you that the others are just as cute and fluffy!! They even have teeth skins too!!

Lemme Eat Yo BRAIIIINNNNZZZZ


I really hadn’t planned on writing anything today. After a weekend of beach camping with the family and fighting off the worst head cold in the history of everything ever (I may be being dramatic – don’t quote me), I figured I could take a few pics, post what I was wearing, and be done. Oh – no, can’t do that now. Not since Keiko Morigi announced her store opening. Once that notice hit my viewer, I was there lickity split to pick up my copy of the new &bean Hounds of Love skin. I even got to talk to Keiko herself a little bit (Nice lady, might I add) because I was there so freaking fast.



There is a part of me that dies a little everytime I see this skin. Not because I hate it. No, I love everything &bean does. I’m a &bean fangirl! It’s just different from the group gift Keiko gave us earlier. The nose, while adorably designed, isn’t the same nose I fell in love with on the gift. That’s not a big problem though. It still looks adorable enough to eat (like Natalie Portman!) but a bigger issue for me is the eye makeup on some of the skin makeups.



This is more of a personal issue, so it should really be taken lightly in your own decision-making, but I don’t like to wear prim lashes. It’s just one more thing I need to edit before leaving my house. Yeah, extra time spent away from shopping and friends? No thanks. Editting hair takes long enough in my opinion. But a lot of these skin makeups are pretty drastic, over the top, couture-ish (to me), perfect for costumes/roleplay, and look kinda silly without prim lashes. Again that’s my own opinion, so take it lightly. I probably wont wear a lot of these skin makeups for that reason, but there are others that are awesome. My favorite for one is the Lamm makeup, but I also adore the look and feel of Korp, Rav, and Hjort. Either way, Keiko did a great job putting all her effort into this line and &bean still remains one of my top skin stores.

My final words: Sorry that ended oddly. As I said at the beginning, I really hadn’t planned on writing anything today. But for my final words on &bean’s new Hounds of Love line? Definitely demo it. Buy it if it fits you, but demo it. Demo them all! And don’t forget to stop off and pick up Keiko’s little 50L gift at the store! Did I mention the gift! Oh yes! There’s a gift! Only 50L too!

When the crypt goes creak,
And the tombstones quake.
Spooks come out for a swinging wake.
Happy haunts materialize,
And begin to vocalize.
Grim grinning ghosts come out to socialize.

Now don't close your eyes,
And don't try to hide.
Or a silly spook may sit by your side.
Shrouded in a daft disguise,
They pretend to terrorize.
Grim grinning ghosts come out to socialize.

As the moon climbs high o'er the dead oak tree,
Spooks arrive for the midnight spree.
Creepy creeps with eerie eyes,
Start to shriek and harmonize.
Grim grinning ghosts come out to socialize.

When you hear the knell of a requiem bell,
Weird glows gleam where spirits dwell.
Restless bones etherialize,
Rise as spooks of every size.

If you would like to join our jamboree,
There's a simple rule that's compulsory.
Mortals pay a token fee.
Rest in peace, the haunting's free.
So hurry back, we would like your company.
