Last Chance to Outshop Cancer!

Posted on October 28, 2021 by cejalaval

That’s right, this chance to help fight bright cancer and support research and programs & services for breast cancer survivors just by shopping here in SL is almost over. The Out Shop Cancer Shopping event main store and Marketplace shopping event – an official Strides Campaign the American Cancer Society in Second Life ends on October 31st. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to do something really worthwhile with those lindens you’re spending. Every linden adds up!!! Happy shopping!!!

Wythburn Fine Furniture – Garden Bench. This seemingly ordinary garden bench is so much more than it looks. First off, you can easily texture just the seat, the legs, or both to any of 4 different materials (Goldleaf, Granite, Limestone, or Marble), each with 9 color choices. Once you have it customized to the look you want, you can play with all of the animations (Gentleman, Lady, or Two of Us), both with two more levels of submenus. Easily resized, all of which makes it perfect for any garden or patio, be it fantasy or human. Even better, proceeds of all purchases through the end of October are pledged to the American Cancer Society in SL, through the Outshop Cancer event. What a fabulous way to spruce up your SL home while shopping with a purpose!!! Don’t just sit around and wait… even on such a fabulous bench as this!

It may be exhausting, but it’s so very very worthwhile to do whatever you can! Out Shop Cancer is a main store and Marketplace shopping event – an official Strides Campaign the American Cancer Society in Second Life with proceeds going to support breast cancer research and programs & services for breast cancer survivors. The Out Shop Cancer Shopping event will run the entire month of October. My meager services as a blogger can only go so far… it’s up to everyone to get out there and shop this event through the month of October and help fight breast cancer, a dread disease that affects us all, one way or another, one time or another. So whether your brush with cancer is personal or through an acquaintance, is in the past, currently happening, or still waiting out there in the future, it’s important that you do what you can. That’s what “shopping with a purpose” is all about… buy the things you want, and your lindens go to this all-important charity to help fight this scourge. So have a cup of the beverage of your choice, and let’s get out there and shop, shop, shop!!!! Let’s all do our best to Outshop Cancer!

This may very well be my last blog for a few weeks. I leave NY for FL a week from today, and am obviously rather crazed. The backup desk I’m using for my computer leaves tomorrow (sold!), so I won’t have anywhere to work and it’s really getting down to crunch time. If I can get it together, I might do a post, but the odds are that my next post will be once I have internet service set up in my new home. It’s exciting, it’s scary, and it’s sad, all at the same time. Part of me wishes all I was doing was traveling to some special gathering, as I envision happening in this pic, but it is instead a complete disruption of my life, the closing of one very long chapter and the opening of another. Wish me luck, and see you in Florida!

Head, Skin, Makeup: LOGO – Chelsea. New! FREE GIFT! That’s right, this gorgeous new bento head is absolutely free to group members (there’s a free male head too)! She’s gorgeous, she’s got lots of new LOGO enhancements, & she’s fully mod so you can tweak her shape to look the way YOU want to look. There is also a special Chelsea fatpack of skins available separately for just $299L (I’m wearing the Chelsea skin in the bloom tone, with my own added freckles of course). Lipstick & some of the eyeshadow (see next bullet) are straight from the Customization HUD once the skins are added. I’m using one of the fabulous LOGO animations too! Lots of designers have already created special shapes, make-up, skins etc. for Chelsea (some of which I’m wearing! keep reading!) & it’s all ONLY available at the LOGO Anniversary Event, October 23rd – November 6th. Demo available. Close-up below!
Makeup: Izzie’s – Chelsea Eyeshadows. Made specifically for the Chelsea mesh head. Includes an Omega Applier HUD for LOGO mesh heads with 9 colors, both with & without eyeliner (NOTE: you first need to buy/install Omega, which is maybe a 30-second process). Also includes BOM (= BakesOnMesh) system tattoo layers for LOGO mesh heads: 9 colors in 2 opacity levels (65% & 100%), plus separate eyeliner to use by itself or for layering. I actually COMBINED the built-in LOGO eyeshadow, tinted through the Customization HUD, with one of the Izzie’s BOM layers for a beautiful two toned shadow. The possibilities are endless! Only at the LOGO Anniversary Event, October 23rd – November 6th. Demo available. Close-up below!
Lashes: Izzie’s – Chelsea Lashes Installer. The installer Hud will only work for LOGO mesh heads, since it adds the lashes directly into the LOGO Customization HUD. The lashes were made for the female Chelsea mesh head, but might also work on other mesh heads from LOGO. Includes 6 tintable styles of lashes. Only at the LOGO Anniversary Event, October 23rd – November 6th. Demo available. Close-up below!
Outfit: YoU by GeMyles – Carole Lace Dress & Boots. Another dress that totally lives up to the designer’s mantra of “Style & Elegance with Attitude.” Tight, short (be aware that it’s VERY short in the back), with a gorgeous lace texture in 10 tones. Includes stunning black lacy knee boots. Carole Lace is sized for Slink HG/P, Belleza F/I/V, & Maitreya. EXCLUSIVELY available at round 10/20 of the Girls Heaven Event in its new location, open from October 18th – November 11th, with a theme of “Spirits & Witches” (how perfect for this blogpost!). Demo available.
Eyes: Unique Obsession – Schools of Magick Eyes Collection (Omega, Lelutka, & system). A collection of 6 awesome eyes filled with creative magic, & it’s a 100% donation item for OutShop Cancer, dedicated to raising funds to help fight breast cancer. This chance to shop with a purpose ends on the 31st, so don’t wait! See the closeup below for detail.
