So yesterday was another day of frustration with my site. I was very unhappy with the subscriber email that went out, and spent quite some time trying to change it. It’s all code, and I have no idea what I’m doing, so I apologize to anyone who gets it if it’s a mess… I will continue to update it until it’s right. But what really made me crazy (and has made my blood pressure go WAY up lol) was trying to add the little blue WordPress rectangle for readers to follow me on WordPress (thank you Victoria for alerting me that it was missing!). When I was unable to add it, I went to BlueHost via chat (they host my site). After saying, oh that will take just a few minutes, I was sitting there for over an hour being told just a few more minutes, so sorry, I have to go consult with a higher level, only to end up with a blue FOLLOW button at the bottom of my sidebar that upon clicking took you back up to the top of the page to my email subscriber option. Unbelievable. I took to Twitter to vent my frustration where my sanity was rescued by WordPress Medic. I now have my button and am keeping them in my go-to list for help since everything seems to be working as it should. Then again, I haven’t seen the email that will go out for this post, but I’ll keep my fingers crossed and do my happy dance until then! 😉
- Outfit: 1 Hundred (new mainstore coming soon)– Sweet Miami Heat. It’s sweet & it definitely sizzles! The cut is awesome — open lacing on the not-too-short crop top; open snaps on the sides of the cutest cut-offs. But the texture even outdoes the cut… the top “wrinkles” perfectly for the lacing, pulling exactly where it should; the shorts do the same & even have a bit of tearing from so much wear. These are the touches that make an outfit stand out & look realistically fitted. And the pattern! I just love the soft fade, especially on those tones where other colors work themselves in (it’s available in 6 tones or one fatpack; I’m wearing the Melon). Sized for Slink H/P, Belleza F/I/V & Maitreya. At the Designer Circle 17/19 August 25th – Sept 7th. Demo available.
- Body: Slink – Hourglass Mesh Body Original, Full Version including Hands (Dynamic) & Feet… 1st time wearing this body! For some reason, it seems that some of the mesh creators are limiting sizes & not always offering Physique. For a blogger, not being able to wear styles because of a sizing issue is unacceptable. Since I had the body in inventory but had originally preferred Physique, feeling that Hourglass was just a bit too much for me, I worked on the shape & I have to admit I absolutely LOVE the result. So you’ll be seeing a lot more of Hourglass in the future…
