LOTD: Skinny Budget 4 Lisa Frank style

Afternoon lovelies!

Does anyone remember the awesomeness of Lisa Frank?! When I was a kiddo Lisa Frank was all the rage. Bright colors, awesome patterns.. stickers, stationary, you name it. It was all a pretty big deal if you had all the sets and such.

Anywho I was doing my normal blog snoop when i stumbled on the latest posting from Freebies for Cece. I won't lie I immediately reverted to a small girl and fell back in love with Lisa Frank all over again. The dress Cece was showing was literally something out of  the Lisa Frank handbook for adults. Loves.LOVES

I absolutely had to scoop this dress up and I was even more amazed to learn it was a FREE group gift from *CK* Crazy Kitty!!! I hopped on down and immediately my eyes were overloaded with bright funky color combos. If you are into that sort of deal... this place is for you. There are numerous group gifts, lucky chairs and prize things all around.
Because of the bright funky nature of the dress I kept everything else a bit simple this time around. I decided to pair it with the freebie item I have out at [Blossom]! 


Oh yeah...Remember I last mentioned I'd decided to make shoes? Guess what?!

LOTD: Passionatly Pink

Hello my lovelies!

I've been holed up in my work station for a few days working like a mad woman! I finally dragged myself out to show you this adorable pink Mesh sweater Ricielli has out in the new TDR collection! Check it out!

Isn't it awesome! I am so so in love with the bright colors lately. I paired it with a past 50L Friday item from Whippet and Buck. And those shoes? Guess what... I have a surprise for you all!!!

*Deep Breath* I MADE these. Yep. Khloe is a shoe cobbler by night. These aren't available just yet but things should be up and running by Wednesday of next week!I'll be setting up on marketplace until I find someplace cute to sell! I have a few personal orders to get done before I go buck wild. Keep an eye out for [Blossom] on MP real soon! I have a few different variations and tons of awesome colors for everyone!

Getting Deep with Khloe

Hey lovelies,

Today's post is a bit different from my normal. It doesn't include pictures, or ranting or fashion but it IS important. At least to me. I'm going to get a bit personal so if that isn't your cup of team you can pretty much stop reading now.

I wanted to start of with a little background on myself. I am a first degree reletive of someone with Multiple Sclerosis. My mother had MS, my mother's youngest sister has MS, though a completely different form. My father's cousin has MS. My best friends mother had MS... Are you sensing a pattern in my life? You should. For a good portion of my life I was surrounded by people that have a horrible, noncontagious disease. Each person I have ever encountered with MS has had a slightly different form. Because MS effect so many people in so many different ways. For my mother her MS attacked her brain. She went from the Vice President of a major bank, to sometimes forgetting who I was. For the last 5 years of her life I was her primary care giver. I saw first hand how someone so alive and vital could wither into a shell of their former self. My Aunt's MS is completely physical. In her early 20's she went from a quirky, hyper woman to someone who has no control over any part of her body. At an age well below senior status she is now confined to a bed in a nursing home. On the flip side there are people who show almost no symptoms. Sometimes they can live an almost normal live and have very little episodes. I've seen a young woman hassled and accused of being a drunk because her legs suddely stop working correctly. I've heard people laugh when someone with MS tries to say a simple phrase and the word in their head isn't the word that comes out of their mouth. At the same time I've also been whitness to ignorant doctors telling people that MS is all in their head. It's a cruel disease.

Understanding this you can see why when I have trouble coming up with a word. Or when I do something odd I always hear that whisper in the back of my mind. "What if..." There no real way to say why some people get this disease. It's been linked enviormentally, genetically and just about anyway you can think. So when I happened upon a post in SL for an ongoing study you can imagine my surprise..

LOTD: Skinny Budget 3

Hello my lovelies!

It took me a while to decide what to call this particular look. In light of some recent jokes the "Angry "Real" Housewife" I have quite possibly the best husband ever. But he rarely logs his butt in anymore. Sometimes I log in, get dressed up and glare at the back of his head willing him to log into SL with me. We live in a small town where "night life" is a foreign concept so sometimes I like to go out in SL. I felt this would be a great look. all dressed up and Hubby is off doing something else. POOH.

LOTD- SKinnt Budget 2

Hellow my lovelies!

As promised I have yet another skinny budget look for you all! Today's look was meant to be a "Shopping with the girls" look! I felt inspired while checking out my facebook and running into some old pictures of my gal pals. We used to grab a bus into the city on occasion and spend the afternoon shopping and eating at (admitedly) overpriced trendy restaurants.

For us these trips had a lot to do with how cute we could look, as much as it did with shopping. Check out my ideas? WOuld you wear this with the gals?..

LOTD- SKinny Budget

Hello my lovelies!

I'm hoping to start a little something that I like to think of as my Skinny Budget Chronicles. Pretty much I'm hoping to show all you thrift fashionistas out there that cheap doesn't have to look cheap. You can pull off some amazing looks in SL with little to no money and a whole lot of patience!

Tonight is my "Date Night/ Girls Night Out". When I think of that topic I think slinky, sexy, and fun. The goal is to look hot but not TOO hot. We don't want to make our hunnies think we are too full of ourselves! As I live in a tiny town with zero night life I have to get my kicks in world. Check it out!...
