So for all those Gacha hunters, there's an event upcoming in just a few days: the Gimme Gimme Gacha event! It will start on August 1st. Jazzitude will be part of it and I give you a preview of one of the items.

Also, Pure Poison offers a free Gacha play to all group members for the Lilly Ann sandals. I got the ones I wanted, the blue ones, yay! And they matched great with the whole outfit.

21. Introduction to: .Shi

Today, the presented items are not free-free but I just couldn't resist to introduce you to .Shi. A brand which I follow with high interest for quite a while already. But just read on, why!

About the group gift: It's a necklace with 3 textures, and a jacket. Not only that this jacket offers various colors in lighter and darker shades, it also comes with matching Mesh hands. Of course, you can adjust the skin color of these Mesh hands through the HUD, and also choose between some nail polish colors. 

About Joy Laperriere: She is the designer behind the brand .Shi, and she is one of those very inspiring designers who was able to successfully realize her fashion visions in second life and in real life! Didn't we all dream about being able to wear a virtual gem also in our daily real life? Joy makes it happen! I highly recommend to visit her fashion site .Shi Boutique and check out her awesome collections and products!
