i’ll shop if i want to…

06Feb08

Wow I’m not sure if I’m spending more lindens now that I’m looking for specific or when I just happened to see something that I liked. Shooping for this blog is lots of fun, I’m finding all these really neat shops I had never heard of and I’m actually really satisfied with every purchase. Except Veschi….I bought this really amazing piece only to find out at another location there was a 50% off sale! But I got everything else I wanted from there that I didn’t want to get before. BARGAIN SHOPPER!

But I’ve been thinking, does it really matter if I go bankrupt writing this blog? I don’t think so…because the best part is– I get to keep all the clothes, lucky me!  And the clothes are amazing. Honestly though just writing this blog andf being able to enjoy my SL is probably more than enough for me. I’m getting out there and despite the lag; one day I will conquer it all!!! Trust that I can do it. What am I going to do after that though? Buy a throne? Nooo too cheesy. I’ll come up with something else.

anticipation…makes the heart grow fonder

05Feb08

I am really excited to blog and I have never been particularly too fond of keeping a blog for myself; I definitely enjoy reading others blogs but could never keep up with mine….FEAR NOT- this blog is going nowhere. I’ll keep it forever and ever and ever, even if no one reads it. Ha!

 

 So I’ve got all these ideas floating through my head of how I want to progress and involve this blog into my daily SL life; so many I can hardly keep up I have yet to write any down though, but I’m not worried I’ll remember. So with my first post out of the way I was ready to explore SL stores I had never been to, at first I ventured into the happy, colorful, trippy, outrageous boutiques with sheeny hair and solid clothes…needless to say I wanted MORE! I knew there had to be a place I would gasp about adn then I landed in Retrology(is that Retro-ology or retrol-ogy). I ended up visting this sim because of a result for a hot shop. I like hats but I’m really picky and those werent’ my style, so I stepped out thinking I’m sure there is more….there has to be. Here I found some amazing shops that I had to try and restrain myself from losing my lindens. There was Savvy, they had great seperates and some really nice basic pieces to mix and match with. There was a small ZHAO branch there and sometimes I feel a little overwhelmed at the main ZHAO shoe store; I feel as though there is too much white and waiting for rezzing I slowly lose interest. With the passed recent Stiletto Moody sale, I really don’t think I need any shoes even though I bought two pairs of boots earlier today from J’s. There was a divine pair of brown boots with excellent detail–chains and the entire boot was made out of straps, I believe they were astros and at $L650 they were gorgeous but I had to wait…but I don’t have any brown boots so maybe I should indulge? Finally my last major impression was made by the vintage-esque Thimbles, where I just happened to meet the owner, Apatia Hammer-she was having a great night in RL and she wasn’t shy to let me in on the party… We talked for maybe half an hour and she gave me a few shopping tips, but you’ll just have to wait to see what I came up with…..

this is it…

04Feb08

A hello to all my boho babes, this is your ideal resource to finding the best fashion and fun in. SecondLife. After all what else are you looking for? Oh and who am I? Channen Gossipgirl- I started my life here in SL as a confused newbie in the Upper East Side; best know as Gossipgirl Land. I creeped out of the orientation room with my slow ‘robotic’ walk amazed by what I saw, not realizing there was so much more.

Now just off my 100th day anniversary (a true veteran right? No!) I’m not so sure that I’m really expressing myself. Sometimes I still feel like a newbie, there is just so much to see in the metaverse and its all so pret- wait no….not all of it, but there are a lot of pretty things I feel I need to own. So maybe its my new years resolution or maybe I’ve started this blog because my inventory is becoming a little more than unmanageable-something I knew would probably come, but wasn’t so sure it would happen so soon!

Some may argue that “BOHO IS DEAD,” but really its an ever evolving trend and its not like I’m saying, “ya you’re hot in your grandmothers dress!” UGH. No way….not to mention the new ever present frangrance that comes with gramdma’s dress… MOTH BALLS! Mmmmm…. Whether you are a boho babe yourself or simply another fashion fanatic of SL, here’s hoping you’ll enjoy this blog to the very last boho bit!

xx
Chan
