"Dear diary, what do i want to write about today?" Not about personal things this time but this. "I'm sure you have all seen it and are as shocked as i am. The devastating fires in Australia that have caused loss of woods, humans and animals. There was a fundraiser event in SL, but it was just from January 24th till January 27th.Why such a a short time? It's a pity that i am too late to inform you about it. But you can of course donate in rl.

Nic is sitting on the train in Australia. Going to family or back packing or going to help the animals?  I don't know. Her companion is a doggy from TLC Animals. Named: "Proud to be Aussie". The donation item for Australian Bush fire Wildlife Benefit. I hope True Redrose or Lautlos, the TLC shop partners, will put the dog with  the surfboard in their shop.
The train is a backdrop fromBamBoo// , available at the Look Event.

Nic is wearing a group gift top and skirt from Luas, the January gift. Comes with a good color hud.  The leg tattoo is from [enigma Ink], called "Fire within me". How fitting!
You can find the tattoo at the Look event. Also from that event Nic is showing you the ballpoint fiddle pen. Three colors in the package. The fun is, that the ballpoint is moving between your fingers. Like people can do when they are thinking before writing or while listening.
The booties i showed before here. Available at Sense, event closing February 8th.
The face chain is a release from amias, available in the main store. Comes with a color hud for the chains.
Yesterday i landed at the location from the Food Court. The event is over, but you can get the coffee cups ( transferable) that Nic is showing, in the Killer's Coffee Kiosk at the landings point.
Nic's skin is still the skin from 7 Deadly s[K]ins that you can buy at eBento ( event ends tomorrow)

Every great dream begins with a dreamer. You have within you the strength, the patience and the passion to reach for the stars.

Yes Nic has patience and she wants to reach for the stars. While waiting and being patient, she is busy for her blog. A good way to help her to be patience. And even for blog making patience is needed. I needs not to be too tired and have patience to get good ideas.
So not every day a blog post is available for you. Keep patient ;)!

Today i am happy to show you again some free items. Part of the core purpose of this blog. But with having more sponsors it's sometimes a bit at the back ground.
Today the hair is free and the outfit of the new  summer hunt, at Ricielli are just 15ld for each item.. The quality is, as known, very good. With the tips from my advisor Laura i show you two sets, that combine very good. The Livy top (#17) and short (#19) is a set. And the lingerie bra  and pantie Shelly (#08) goes very well with the robe Shayla (#10) both from the Dhoma brand of Ricielli. I am a fan of that brand.
Laura told me also that skirt ( #01) and the body suit ( #09) combine very well. You need find donuts. In the shop is the board with all the hunt items. So you can choose what you want.
Nic's skin is skin Aquilla available at the eBENTO event. She is wearing skin tone caramel.
The nails used are from the Sale Rack of Cazimi at marketplace. Many very good affordable items there. Type in search at MP Cazimi Sale Rack or hit a board in the shop about it.
The lipstick is available at the new round of SENSE. Blog posts of that event will come soon.

In the decor you can see items from the Boardwalk event and the super cute Chihuahua's of [Rez Room], available in the gacha at Epiphany.
From the Boardwalk event are the bedroom set of  [ Generation X ], containing the bed, rug, chair, side table, elephant ear plant, vase with books, vases, bull heads and the hanging lamps. All items can be bought separately or in a full set. Adult or pg.
To the right you can see a pouf of Raindale. Comes with a color menu.
On the balcony i placed the lemon espaliers of Illusions of Grandeur.
The pictures are made in the skybox of hive//. Once i bought this one at a Fifty Linden Friday. It's a simple skybox but with sphere. Available now at the normal ( affordable) price.

Back home from a vacation in a city with so much art. A city where many famous composers and  writers were born. A city with an overwhelming history and much violence in the past. It's still all in my mind. So may be that is why i made Nic a bit like an artistic woman. She looks as if she's beaten. And she is looking a bit sad. Play that violin and she will be okay again.

Nic is wearing a Fifty Linden Friday latex dress from Cynful. The bralette part makes the dress special. The bralette has a hud with several colors. A pack has 4 colors for the dresses.
The booties are from the sale at BREATHE. 50% off. Worthwhile to look around there. Group join is free at the moment . There are two group gifts available. One is new.
Nic's skin is a release from 7 Deadly s[K]ins at Designer Showcase. It is the skin Crimson and she is wearing skin tone pineapple.
Many gifts you can get at eBento, because of the second birthday. From that event Nic is showing the bracelet, the nail polish, the cigarette pose and the tattoo on the back of her leg.
The sophisticated hair i found at Sintiklia. Comes with several bangs and with a styling hud.
The music tattoo is from the sale at White Widow.
The leaning pose from Amitie is available at Uber
The lipstick and the face tattoo are presents at The Best Point.

The black necklace is a present at eBento. The black hair (you get a fatpack) is one of the many gifts at Fabia. A whole wall with many group gifts there. The group join is 100ld, but that's very affordable because you get so many hairs!

The beautiful bento rings from CODEX , available at eBento (ending May 31st ) or also on the 4Mesh Event ( ending April 1st). Comes with a color hud.

You can see on the pictures that Nic is in a nostalgic mood. Relaxing and listening to music.

She is wearing clothes from the Princess hunt at the YM shop. You need find a group of Disney princesses. It's very easy. At the entrance is a board with all the hunt gifts. Each item is 15ld.
You see on the first picture the items from the set that i wanted. It contains the skirt, top, bra, necklace and earrings ( not visible). Also other hair is included. All comes with color huds for many colors. The skirt you can see better on the other pictures. I used the skirt again and combined it with a top from Arcane Spellcaster. Again ( like in the post before this one) a "move in the wind" item. The sleeve on the back moves. This top comes also with a color hud. It is a gift at the eBento Event.
Under the top Nic is wearing her Maitreya bra. The boots are from ::ROC:: at marketplace for a very affordable price. Comes with a color hud. Because of the laces it combines nice with the skirt.

Tres Chic has the third anniversary. With many lovely gifts. The necklace with pearl ( comes also with earrings), the hairpin ( see below)  and the bracelets are from that event. I sure will show you more.
New are also the lucky heart plants, a new group gift at hive//.
