Skins, clothes, shoes and accessories for your Avatar will always be good investments.
After earning free lindens, it’s just common sense that you have to spend money or put it somewhere where you can earn more. For now, let’s just say you’ll be spending your free linden dollars.
Weeks ago, Cynara and I received an invitation for a Grand Ball Opening of Kidd Island. To our surprise, it will be a masquerade ball. So we have lots of problem! 1 is to get formal clothes that will fit for the medieval period and celtic. 2nd, we should have our own masks from Illusions (a mask store). 3rd we lack funds to look so good.
We filled up offers that gives free lindens so we can raise the money. Thanks to earn2life, we got ourselves a mask for the two of us. However, the mask is not enough, we still need good clothes. We wander and searched for the high quality and clothes with better textures rather than just settling for something that just looks good. Cynara advised me, “better and high quality textures first.” Not bad actually, thinking I got myself a Dhampir Rider outfit from B@REROSE and Cynara got a good dress namely “Josephine” by Ginny Talamasca, Last Call.
After getting a mask and a costume, we searched for good hair, luckily the hair that will fit the theme and will look good on me can also be found at Illusions. There’s less hassle for us after that since we only need Cynara’s hair.
We got them all in the end. Cynara and I were ready to go to the ball. The skins, clothes, shoes, accessories and hair really compliments one another. If I didn’t have the opportunity to earn free lindens, we would not be able to get ourselves a decent costume in the first place.
Anyway, all in all this is how we look in the end:
Looking good will always be a good investment in Second Life.

I agree, since your represented by your AV, you want to look good, and that takes some effort and there are some realy good vendors out there for just the shape and skin. And if you pick a good shape, it will often come with a notecard to lead you to the skin, hair, etc for the model that is on the pic. So you can copy that or be a little more original.
Glad I just found your wordpress blog through Google.
Found just what I was looking for, thanks =)
Btw, wat plugins are you using??
