The Holiday Shopping Guide
Many of you probably remember the shopping guide I published last year for Christmas. Well, this year – 95 items spread across 20 pages in the December issue of Vain Inc magazine… written by yours truly!
The shopping guide covers categories from clothing to shoes, and people to shop for from Him/Her to Alternative Lifestylers. With 95 items to choose from, you’re sure to find something to grab! Click here to check out the shopping guide!
Happy Holidays!
A Trip to Starlust Motel
I’ve been reading up on the feed that Starlust Motel (SLURL) is having it’s 24 hour Pantie Party starting at 6PM tonight. Having never been to the motel itself, I figured I’d take a trip and see what all the hubub was about. Oh. My. God. It was such a fun trip, and I’ll tell you why. (Click the photo below for a larger image!)
I’ve never walked away with so much fun stuff before. LOL! I was honest to god giggling the entire time I was roaming the sims with my little Kylei.
Aside from the StarLust Motel ‘Eat Me’ freebie which greets you at the door (the cheeseburger avatar… omg), there are also TONS of freebies around the hotel shops themselves including a dress from Amplify, DOZENS of poses from LAP, several freebies inside the hotel lobby, a treat bag from SD Wears, a pair of freebie shades from Vintage Wear, a box full of yumminess from Schadenfreude!, a cute handbag from MimiEden, a several dollarbies at Twosome, and probably a ton of other things I’ve yet to find. Now, I have absolutely no idea just how many of these freebies are exclusive to Starlust, so I’d suggest just heading there and trolling the two sims for all the freebies you can find. Oh, and grab some of the awesome shit for sale too!
Basically, I always have so much fun raiding these places. You never know what shops you’ll run across that you’ve never heard of before, or what shops you’ve heard of that have all this wacky stuff in these themed malls. And to make this trip even MORE fun, there’s actually a hunt going on in honor of the pantie raid, as it’s been dubbed… the golden clam hunt! The hunt covers both sims, Lloyd and Floyd, and you’re essentially searching for tiny golden clams… that are just waiting for you to scoop up the free underpants inside! Be aware… these clams are tiny. But well worth the effort to find, I’m sure of it.
More information from the Starlust Motel blog:
Please join us Tomorrow (Aug. 11th) at the Motel for a wee party celebrating all that is underpant. Starting around 6pm SL DJ Jhuzen Ketsugo will be um… spinning the phat beats? Yeah? I’m pretty sure that’s what they’re called. Even if they’re not phat, they’ll be good sized and really confident with themselves so do come.
Also there’s a 5 day hunt with almost an uncountable amount of clams holding underpants from almost an uncountable amount of vendors going on. The hunt covers both sims of Floyd and there are underpants for men as well as women. Sexy and casual, fun and then some very serious ones. I do think you’ll have a good time!
I plan to be on the hunt for panties, as well as more kooky stuff!!! How about you? Be there or be square!
PS: Oh! I should probably mention that the golden clam hunt has items for both MEN AND WOMEN!!! So drag your man with you. Come on, boys. You know you like to hunt just as much as we do. :P

Your Holiday Shopping Guide
So, rather than go through the 150+ blogs I subscribe to piece by piece (which I’m STILL not caught up with after my week-long trip… omg), I figure a link to someone that’s already DONE that would be a good idea. Don’t you think? Get the word out faster, I always say. Plus, everyone loves free publicity. Not that Massively needs it! Those guys rock it out.
Moo Money has done a fantastic (and painstaking) job of scouring blogs and announcements for holiday shopping goodness, and has selflessly taken the liberty to compile a list so fantastic, you’ll be clicking SLURLs for hours. Given that Moo has made one such list already, I think it’s a safe assumption to think that there will be a third, possibly even a fourth or fifth, list made before Christmas/New Years reaches us. That’s a lot of shopping, guys!
Without further ado, here is a little teaser from the Massively website:
I structured this week’s guide differently because of the sheer size of it. The categories are: Freebies, Cheapies, Free to group members, Sales, Regular-priced, For men, and Home and Garden. Once again, they are listed with the shop name linking to a store SLURL and what they’re selling, with a link to their blog or forum post about the item. If you release something in the coming week, let me know, or leave a comment here, and I’ll include it in next week’s guide. Happy shopping!
To view the full shopping-goodness list… click here! Thank you, Moo, for a job well done! I look forward to your next installment! *runs off shopping*

Another Christmas Giveaway
Reaction Surfwear (SLURL) is also offering a new gift every day until Christmas Eve! I just love it that people get all give-y during the holidays. Makes me feel all warm and cozy inside… and my wallet doesn’t die. It’s a beautiful thing.
Culled from the Reaction Surfwear blog:
Started yesterday, and will be going until Christmas eve, is a daily, free gift! Though there’s a little catch.. you need to find it. In each store, Reaction and Reaction Girl, is a tree each, with pressies underneath (obviously a freebie for guy and girl). All you need to do is go in, and feel the pressies under the tree and find which pressie has the gift! The box will change daily, along with the gift.. so be sure to keep on feelin’!
WRONG’s Daily Free Gift Until X-Mas Eve!
I think this has to be one of the best PR ideas, like, EVER. Click here or the advertisement below to teleport on over to WRONG and start digging for pressies! NOTE: There are TWO trees in the store, and I believe only ONE will have an active present underneath it on any given day. Keep that in mind while diggin’!
By the way, this sale announcing thing, doesn’t bother anyone, does it? I just want to make sure I’m not scaring anyone off by trying to keep everyone up to date on the sales I hear about, ya know? :P
