Less is more
It’s been a long time since I made any New Year’s resolutions, and 2011 is no exception. I didn’t specifically resolve to clean up my near-90K inventory, but lately I’ve just felt like it needed some tidying – well, that, and the size of it means I can’t load everything, I lock up for a second or two every time I try to open my inventory window, and for some reason it makes snapshots damn near impossible. So I’ve started a bit of weeding out, actually purged about 15K items so far. This would be a lot easier if A) SL let me open two inventory windows at once without crashing or lagging to the point of not being able to do anything with them; and B) I could just weed and sort without finding stuff I forgot I had and going, “OMG I MUST TRY THIS ON RIGHT NOW!” Oh, and if C) I could stop buying more stuff…
Alas, neither A nor B nor C is likely to happen - maybe A if I ever do get it down to a manageable level. Meanwhile I’m having a lot of fun dragging old stuff out and putting it together with new stuff. Glam Affair‘s “Jadis Dark” skin is a special right now at The Dressing Room, and though it’s a darker tone than I usually wear, I really, really, REALLY like it. Also new to me are the very low-cut “Gumdrop” sweater from I Like Pie and the EarthStones “For Keeps” locket (which opens so you can put your own pic inside).
The hair isn’t new – I’ve had it for months and it’s actually a demo (you just can’t see the demo box in the pic) from Raspberry Aristocrat. And then, because I haven’t blogged anything from Zaara in a while and I LOOOOOVE Zaara, I added the “Churidar” pants, “Raga” ring and “Ilaida Mojri” shoes. Poses are from Olive Juice‘s “True Blood” set – I can’t remember, but I THINK they’re free or VERY inexpensive. And they make me think that one of these days, I really do need to watch “True Blood.”
