Calypson Batik by salt.

My tulips have poked their heads above the earth. Spring has sprung. And I need pretty new stuffs. \o/

I found this beautiful soft silk dress at salt. The pastel print with a touch of gold is elegant and perfect for any occasion. The sculpted skirt with its charming hemline flows smoothly from the top and hugs my curves beautifully. Did I mention I love the print?

salt. is fast becoming one of my favorite stores. I need everything Tammany Goodliffe creates. One visit, and you'll be hooked too.

Charity Events

Like many of us, I have lost a dear friend to cancer. And I have a close friend who is frantically trying to get in touch with family in Japan. It warms my heart to see our community come together around both these causes.

If you would like to support either of these charities, please visit:

Linden Relief Teddy Bears

Fashion for Life

Pacific Crisis Fundraiser

American Cancer Society

Americares

American Red Cross

Pacific Crisis Fundraiser

Within hours of the earthquake and tsunami striking Japan, SLers came together to raise money to help the victims. One such effort is the Pacific Crisis Fundraiser.

PCF is a fundraising event with 400+ designers selling their products, donating either 50% or 100% of each sale to Americares. It has already raised USD 4,000 (and counting). If you are a designer and would like to participate, registrations are still open.

For information or help setting up your vendors at the event, join the group "Pacific Crisis Fundraiser" and IM any of the Officers. Or go to the venue and IM anyone with a "PCF Team" group tag.

PCF runs March 16 - April 10, 2011. Come shop!

Suha by Indyra Originals

If you know me, you know I am a major fan of Indyra Seigo's designs. She recently released Suha, an adorable Spring outfit. Race over and get your copy today.

The top is beautifully sculpted and the shading on the textures is perfect. It is cinched at the waist by a gorgeous gold belt, which gives this casual outfit an elegant look. It has a resize HUD to help you fit the prim to any shape.

The sculpted shorts have a pretty diagonal texture that lined up perfectly for me.

This outfit is available in several snazzy colors: Blue Curacao, Honeysuckle, Live Coral, Noir, Peony, Russet and Silver Cloud.

These shoes, also by Indyra, are cute and versatile. They are available in black and in white.

The Suha Stones jewelry is a natural fit with this look. This set is available in several colors that match the outfits.

I love the Marina tote and you will too. Each bag can be worn 3 different ways and includes adorable animations that worked fine with my AO. It is available in black and in white.

I'm usually fashionista fail, but Indyra makes pulling a look together so darn easy! And every piece is amazingly detailed.

I recently met Indyra herself. I have long loved her designs, and now I'm a fan of the designer too.

Do visit her store. I never leave empty handed and I've never been disappointed with any of her products. Go shop!

Fashion for Life

Fashion for Life runs March 12-22, 2011. Our goal is to raise funds for the American Cancer Society.

This year’s theme is “Beyond Black and White,” embodying the spirit of cancer survivors everywhere as they find hope rising out of the dark diagnosis of cancer. The sims are beautiful and well worth a trip just to see the fantastic builds.

There are 9 sims and over 190 stores, chock full of goodies. I've been around the sims and peeked in all the stores. The items for sale are fabulous. *drools*

Come shop and support a worthy cause!
