.:bramble:. Weekly Group only deal!

Hi again, folks! I've been working on ways to give back to the wonderful folks who bother to join (and stay in haha) the .:bramble:. group in world. <3

So, I've got a vendor set up just inside the door of the mainstore (turn right in the landing place) over by the New Releases. No matter what the offering is, it'll be priced at 65L. :)

I'm going to change it every Monday (I'm on Eastern Daylight Time), and this week it's a brand new release that's only available to .:bramble:. group members.  Then next week, it'll be on the wall for the normal 95L!

So you'll get it first and at a discount if you join the group! It's currently free and I've got a couple other tricks up my sleeve coming up! Plus I've got lucky chairs and MM board for the group in back of the store!


Thanks folks! Have a great week!

~Gracie

Finally, new stuff, AND a new location!

 I have a new mainstore! It's still in the Refuge Shopping district (because it's a really great place. <3 ), it's just bigger and will let me keep growing, which is just amazing and cool to me. :) You folks are awesome.

I'm all moved in now- although I keep fiddling a little with decor (I assume that will be an ongoing thing. :D )- and I'm excited to doing some really cool things!

In the back of the store, I've got some lucky chairs and MM boards for group members (The .:bramble:. group is free to join, btw!), I've got a wall of gifts for different groups I'm part of (And I'll have a new .:bramble:. group gift out soon!), and at the front, you can easily see what events and hunts I'm in. :)

I have some new things coming later this week, but for right now, this week's offering for The Weekly Limited is this brand new set of lipsticks! I plan to put out several Everyday sets of different colors because I adore how this looks. And I love that with Catwa's master HUD you can vary the opacity to get exactly the look you want. 

I think that's it for news for the moment, but you'll be hearing from me soon with more new things, and I've got a couple photoshoots in the workings too!

Have a great week, folks!

New Releases April 5, 2018

So, to make up for no real new releases last week, I've got a ton of things to talk about today. :D

First-the new releases are something you can buy singly or as a full set.

So, I love this set of butterfly shadows, but then I got to thinking about whether or not folks would want to wear just the butterflies- I know I would sometimes, to go with other eyeshadow or liner-so, then I just did that, and did the shadows separately. 

Tomorrow, they'll be available in the mainstore for 90L each. :)

Then I was like, ok, but what if someone wants to buy them all? They should get a deal, right? So, you'll also be able to get the WHOLE SHEBANG for 225L! What a deal, yeah?

I hope ya'll love them as much as I do. <3

.:bramble:. for The Weekly Limited!

Hi there folks! I'm participating in this week's The Weekly Limited!  This set of adorable nails is what I've got for y'all.  You can get them at my mainstore for 50L all week, or until 100 copies have been sold! After that, I may put them up at full price in the store (But I may not. I honestly haven't decided yet. :) )

I'm really excited to be a part of this! And while you're in the mainstore, I'm part of a couple of hunts, too! I'll talk more about that tomorrow. :)

In the meantime, I hope everyone had a lovely Sunday. <3

70L Weekend and .:bramble:.

So, as the title suggests, I'm part of this week's 70L Weekend! Just in the landing area of the mainstore is a kiosk where you can join the group. And the item is just inside the shopping area, proper. :D

Ordinarily, the item would come down early Monday morning, but I'll be away from the pc Sunday and most of Monday, so you'll also have an extra day to go get this cute shape. :)

New Releases for March 22, 2018

 This week's releases are pretty simple-New nails for Maitreya and Omega. I love these colors lately, all spring and pretty. <3

This week's shape is another for Catwa's Catya and Maitreya's Lara. I know I've been giving Keme a lot of love, but I still love Catya, too. :) (and for the curious-the sweatshirt in the advert is from Sn@tch. :D )


As always, they'll be on sale for the week, and last week's new releases will go to their normal prices. :)

.:bramble:. at Inspiration!

I have 2 exclusives at the Inspiration event which officially starts tomorrow! This is Sandi- a shape for Catwa's Catya head and Maitreya's Lara body. She's slender and lovely and can be yours by checking out the event!

These nails are available with SLink and Omega appliers and add a cute mix of boho and whimsy to your wardrobe!


Both these releases are ONLY available at Inspiration, and have a nice little discount, too!

Oh! And there's a giftie too (Well, technically, it's a dollarbie! <3 )

I love the way eyeliner looks on one's waterline, and these come in 6 different colors! This is for Catwa mesh heads, and I hope ya'll love them as much as I do.

New Releases for March 15, 2018

This week, I've got another shape for Catwa's newest mesh head for the ladies, Keme.  This head is *super* versatile and gorgeous. 

Hey, look, it's lipstick! Folks, this may have opened a flood gate. :) I love lipstick and lip art, so you'll probably see lots more from me. :) 

Both items will be in world tomorrow at the new item prices and last week's will go up to their normal prices. :)

.:bramble:. at The Wedding Rose Hunt!

The Wedding March Event is a fantastic place for all your wedding themed needs, and I'm glad to be a part of the hunt that goes along with it! You can get these cute nail appliers (For SLink and Omega) by finding a rose with .:bramble:. on it and paying 10L! 

It's a cute event, with some very cool stuff, so go check it out! (You can also see more about the designers in the event blog!)

Taelas Ontari

Images of broken light 

which dance before me 

like a million eyes

They call me on and on 

across the universe

So, in my first life, I'm a bit of a nerd. And I play a tabletop game called Starfinder with a wonderful group (It's like DnD only SPAAAACE!). This is my first go at creating my character. :) Her name is Taelas, she's a Lashunta and the hardest part of putting together this look was finding the right antennae. <3 Plus, this outfit from the current We Love Role-Play event makes me super happy. :D


Head: Catwa Keme
Body: Maitreya Lara
Skin: Glam Affair (I can't remember which one! Skin tone is Asia, and I think it was from last month's Collabor88 )
Shape: My own, for this character
Tattoo: Ghost'Ink - Lima
Eyes: Catwa's mesh eyes
Antennae: :Soul: Moth (these are actually *really* cool, very customizable. I love them)
Hair: Magika- Which Witch
Clothes: Plastix- Nightrider Suit (At the Current We love RP event!)
Place: In Silico

New Releases for 3/8/18!

 I picked up Catwa's new Keme head and it's adorable. I'll be working with it for awhile, I think. :) Also, at this point, unless I say otherwise, it's safe to assume that my shapes are all made while wearing Maitreya's Lara body. I love it A LOT. As usual, she'll be on sale for a week at L$50! Then she'll go to the normal L$150 :)

This is my first official cosmetics release! (I'll have an eyeliner giftie at Inspiration starting next week!)  I have a soft spot for messy makeup and smudged eyeliner so I made some. :) These are for Catwa heads only and they'll be on sale for the week at L$25! Then they'll go up to the normal L$75!


One more little thing-on my back wall in the shop are a few old system shapes. I've priced them way down, so pick them up if you want them because next week, I'll be taking them down to make room for newer stuff. :)

Pensive

Head: Catwa Keme
Hair: Magika- Marble Machine
Shape: .:bramble:.- Torianne for Catwa Keme (It'll be in world Thursday)
Skin and Lipstick- Glam Affair (The skin was Georgie,I think, lips from a gacha in their shop)
Eyeliner: .:bramble:.  Morning After Eyeliner (It'll be out Thursday, too!)
Nails: Also .:bramble:. -Glossy Matte, available in world now!

A couple things: This Magika hair is brand new, and they're trying something different with the new textures- Instead of different color packs, there's just one HUD with all the colors offered at a slightly higher price than the previous packs.  Personally, I love this idea, because I will gladly pay a bit more for ALL THE COLORS. I have a hair problem. :D

Also, yes, I've begun designing some cosmetics for Catwa heads. (I am unlikely, at this point, to work with other heads. I mean, it could change later, but I'm not real interested in other heads right now.)  I have some fun stuff coming up. :)

Anyway, I hope everyone's having a good week, and I'll talk to y'all soon. :)

These will be in world tomorrow, at the normal new release price for each! (50 for the shape, 10 for the nails!

Upcoming Hunt!

Hi folks! I'm going to be in the Wedding Rose hunt for the month of March! Usually hunts are in one's own shop-this one's taking place completely within the Wedding March shopping event! Just hop in there and look for roses that'll have mystery prizes in each one from L$1 to L$10!

You'll see I said "mystery" prize-Which means I can't tell you what it is yet. :D

I have a couple more cool things going on in March, but I'll blog about those separately, soon!

Hope y'all have a good week! <3

~Gracie

It's Thursday- that means new releases!

It's that time again! This week's releases are partially inspired by all the rain in my area this week. :) Well, that explains the bright nails, anyway. :D (They're only L$10 this week!)

This week's shape is another one for Catya. I'm really pretty fond of that head. So much one can do with it. <3 (And she's only L$25 this week!)

I've also updated the lucky boards so stop in the store this weekend and have a look around!

(Also, how cute is this hair from Wasabi?! I love it a lot.)

This sweater!

I love this sweater so much. I want to wear it all the time. It's amazing.  It's from Tetra, at the current Collabor88. It's one of my favorite monthly events because they never fail to be choc-full of great designers with great items. <3

This sweater is pretty much all I wanted to talk about this time. :D (Oh, and I'll mention that the shot was taken at my house. :) )
