Pick of the week
LITTLE BRANCH
Anyone who knows me will tell you that I am a landscaping fanatic, I just love to decorate our sim in tune with the latest season. Yet again I set about flattening it and set off in search to see what is on offer from our great SL designers. My first port of call (and last as it turned out) was the brand new LITTLE BRANCH mainstore. I was more hyped up than a child on Christmas morning when I discovered that the new store is now open inworld. I have always been a huge fan of this super talented designer, the trees are so realistic looking and ever so subtly animated. I almost feel as though I could actually reach out and touch them, smell the bark and the leaves!
So I was super excited to arrive at the new store, which is beautifully designed and landscaped.
Walking inside feels just like being in tree heaven. It is designed like a garden centre/forestry warehouse, with breath taking trees at all growth stages on display, including gorgeous little saplings being cultivated in raised beds. The selection on offer is second to none, so many shapes, sizes and colours to captivate.
The place is phenomenal and has everything from fruit trees, pines, willows, firs etc to the more exotic varieties including KingKo, Dracaena, Cacti and Magic Sourwood. Walking around is mesmerising and I wanted to take them all home :) Hubby, ever the sensible one eek, persuaded me that it may be practical to choose the ones we needed now and return in future for more! I am sure his only concern was regarding the logistics lol!
So we finally decided on several different varieties of trees, all of which are animated and season change with a simple click of a button. I also picked up the winter grass which can be seen in the main photo and the winter bridge made of recycled wood, seen behind the Christmas tree, centre right of the photo. As you can see, I have made a start on my winter landscape and it already looks amazing, especially now I have added an frozen pond for skating and decorated my lovely trees with fairy lights. The trees are copy and modify, so you can put as many or few as you like and adapt the size to fit.
I can honestly say that a visit to LITTLE BRANCH is a must! whether you intend totally re landscaping, just adding a Christmas tree or calling in simply to take a look around at this wonderful place. The immense talent that has gone into creating such stunning, realistic trees is truly a sight to behold and NOT something to be missed.

Dazi: Stunning new gown by Shoenique, exclusive to The Autumn Frost fair 2017
During my visit to This Autumn's Frost Fair, I was delighted to find this beautiful gown by Ellie Monk of Shoenique designs. The fit and stunning lace are, as always from this designer, simply perfect. In the photo I am wearing it on my Maitreya Lara body and it fits like a glove.
It comes in fitmesh and standard sizes and is an exclusive to this fair, an absolute bargain at only 99L! It comes with the option to add a fish tail style flexi skirt, making it perfect for both cocktail and formal nights. The gorgeous colour and figure hugging design make this gown elegant and it oozes classy sex appeal and femininity.
A must have for the upcoming holiday season and definitely a wardobe staple. I added a fur stole around my shoulders for an event last night and received so many compliments on this simply beautiful dress. Thank you Shoenique, I just love this!
