Leaf on the Wind

Leaf on the Wind

One of the things I enjoy about SecondLife is the sense of community. Aside from all of the benefits for things like cancer research, there are often benefits thrown to help individuals who've been thrown a curveball by life.

Amy, also known as Scarlet Chandrayaan (owner of Alouette), is extremely ill with an unfortunate prognosis, so several SL designers have come together to create a sort of Make a Wish benefit for Amy so she can fulfill her dream of visiting London. The event - called Leaf on the Wind - has a London theme with a lot of clothing, accessories, and housewares. Even if you aren't as crazy about London as this little anglophile, there are many items that aren't London themed, and several kiosks around the sim where one can make donations to the cause without making a purchase.

Because my inventory is bursting at the seams, I exercised restraint and only bought this mesh dress with a gorgeous sparkly London skyline around the bottom, and these cute peeptoe plaid heels. Because I wanted to help a bit more, I also made a donation at one of the kiosks.

Leaf on the Wind runs through February 1, 2015. You can read more about Amy on the official event site.
