We’re Beautiful Like Diamonds In The Sky

So a long long time ago in a Second Life far far away, I used to LOVE latex. I know, right? But I totally did. The shinier, the better! It’s been years and years since my latex days, but all it took was one pretty dress and bam! I’m shiny again! And my dear friend Kirsten is shining right by my side!

My Slink Obsession is back and better than ever! And if you want to be super shiny like Kirsten and me, you NEED to get the Emilia latex dress by Stellar! It is only rigged for the Slink Physique body, so keep that in mind when you buy it. You’ll also want to pick up the matching Emilia Plats if you like super tall platforms! And for your fingers and toes, the Diamonds R 4 Ever nail polish is a definite must have. Stellar has us shining bright like a diamond!

My Slink Obsession opens on July 5th and all of the Stellar items I’ve shown here are 50% off during the event!

Shine on, bunnies!

C’mon, Baby, Let’s Go

Hello, bunnies! I took this photo a couple of days ago but a weird and sudden illness knocked me down! No fun! Luckily I’m feeling much better, so now I get to show you pretty stuff!

The Arcade ends on Tuesday, so hurry on over if you want to get awesome things, like the trailer from Consignment‘s The Open Road collection, or the Tree Stump Garden from Half-Deer‘s Spring Eternal set.

Uber started a few days ago and it’s a Freestyle round, so the designers were able to do what they wanted. I am in LOVE with Truth‘s Armelle hair and the Kiania heels by Eudora! Also, the new Grazia skin by Glam Affair at Uber is my new fave!

And if you haven’t heard, coldLogic released some super cute new spring dresses this week! I fell hard for the Lukonen dress because it’s just so fresh and cool.

Happy shopping!

And I’m still getting to the good part!

Some days, you just need to be boho pretty out in nature!

Fission just released the new Set Free dress, and it’s so cute! There is a serious lack of boho chic/hippie chic mesh clothing in SL, so I was super happy to get this dress. It’s all kinds of my style!

Elephante Poses and YumYums have paired up for the Sweet Nothing pose pack at the Pose Fair. There are 8 lovely poses in the pack, and a dandelion prop! I turned the dandelion around in my hand so the fluff blew away from me.

I wore the Elyse hair by Truth in my post yesterday, but I had to wear it again today because it is so so me! I wear side braids quite a bit, and with the color change headband, I’m in heaven! I picked a daisy to attach to my headband for this picture, it doesn’t come on the band.

Hopefully your weekend has been as nice as mine!

Some Beach, Somewhere

Our beach vacation is over and we’re heading home today. I’m so going to miss this place! But at least I got in one more morning walk along the beach.

Mutresse is at FaMESHed this month and I’m loving the Nadya tank top and Guzia shorts! The top comes in 2 options so that if you wear the shorts, the belt of the shorts won’t clip the top, which is awesome. And like other Mutresse products, both items come with handy color change HUDs so you can customize your look.

Maxi Gossamer is also at FaMESHed and how beach perfect are the Bali Gypsy bare foot sandals and necklace, I ask you? I haven’t put on shoes in at least 2 days because I just want my feet to be all jeweled up and pretty. You DO need the SLink flat bare feet for these, so if you’re still in janky system feet, then your feet can’t be as jeweled up and pretty as mine today.

I guess it’s time to pack up and start heading home. If you’re interested in your own awesome beach vacation on this beautiful little island, contact Vernice Burks or Mariah Urriah to set something up!

Keep Shining Through

I wasn’t planning on blogging this outfit because it was just a random “I’m wearing clothes” outfit. But Ulaa stopped by to sit on my swingset last night with me and as soon as she came over, she commented on how cute my outfit was. Well, heck. I can’t let an outfit go to waste if I’ve somehow managed to look cute!

Fishy Strawberry is at FaMESHed with this cool Knit Bomber jacket. It’s layered with the buttoned shirt and then the smaller t-shirt. I love layers! The awesome part is that there is a HUD included so you can change the colors of both the t-shirt and the buttoned shirt. Yay for options!

I don’t think I’ve ever blogged Elephante Poses before but I’m loving the Odette poses they have out at The Surreal Complex! They’re static poses, but still manage to look very active.

Have a great Monday!

Breathing My Name With A Sigh

I still can’t figure out if this photo makes me look sad, confused, or like I have a headache. You decide!

I’ve been wearing nail polishes from Hello Dave quite a bit in the past few months. The polishes are always gorgeous and come in almost every color you can think of. The latest High Gloss release is fantastic! You know you need new colors for your SLink fingers and toes! Hello Dave is only on the Marketplace, so it’s truly easy to shop for your goodies.

I wore some of the Ascend jewelry by Cae for FaMESHed in a previous post, but I didn’t get to show off the ring, which is actually my favorite piece from the set. I just love rings, but so many don’t resize right for the SLink hands, and Cae‘s rings always do. The jewelry comes with a HUD so you can change the metal and the jewel colors, and also resize.

Stay warm, y’all! ♥

Go On And Do What Your Heart Tells You To

Happy New Year, readers! And what better way to start off a new year than with a new round of FaMESHed??

IKON is in this round of FaMESHed with the new Promise eyes. I love these because they almost remind me of some eyes I had back in late 2007, but just fresh and updated. And if you don’t like to always wear the mesh eyeballs, there is a regular texture version included that is just as pretty.

Also at FaMESHed, the classy new Emily hair from Wasabi Pills, the very pretty Royal Khadijah Estate necklace from Maxi Gossamer, and the super cute Peplum Sweater Combo from Coquet. As you can see, it is a FANTASTIC month at FaMESHed!!

Happy shopping!

Thanks To 2013!

Happy New Year’s Eve, my friends! This is my last post of 2013 in this blog, and I have stuff to say!

I wanted to say an enormous THANK YOU to all the SL creators who allowed me to blog for them this past year. Clothes, hair, shoes, poses, and home decor – plus everything in between – you all are the the reason why Second Life remains amazing year after year. You guys keep us looking good, posing pretty, and keep our houses looking more gorgeous than anything we could have ever hoped for. It’s been a true honor this past year to use your creations and I am so looking forward to what you guys come up with in 2014!

And to my readers – thank you. Every time I post something and someone favorites a pic on flickr or IMs me to say “I saw what you showed and had to go buy it!” I seriously feel proud. What I do is not as big as what the creators of SL do, but I’m happy when you guys take the time to let me know that you like what I do. If bloggers didn’t have readers, we’d have nothing. ♥

Please be careful if you’re going out tonight and I’ll see you next year!

I’m Bound To Thank You For It

A man sees a young guy standing near a dog on the street. “Does your dog bite?” he asks the guy. “No, my dog doesn’t bite,” the young man replies. So the man reaches down to pet the dog and the dog bites his hand. “I thought you said your dog didn’t bite!” the man exclaims. The young guy says, “My dog doesn’t bite, sir, but that’s not my dog.”

Oh. Blog!

Bubblegum Alley is a new event for kids and families and it’s very cute! I picked up some great home decor there from Pixel Fusion and new-to-me store Noble. I’m always thrilled to find new-to-me stores, and this event was full of them! This round of Bubblegum Alley runs until the 26th, so hop on over and check it out!

Fri.day released some fantastic boots for Shoetopia. The River.Boots are lace-ups with a great wedge. They come in several colors, and if you buy the Dotty color at the event, 100% of the money goes to Soles4Souls.

Have fun!

Just Take Your Time

I do a lot of inventory cleaning on an almost daily basis. Not a lot, obviously, since my inventory is still pretty massive. But I throw away things pretty much daily as I come across them. A lot of the time, this does mean I’m throwing out something that was made before August 2011 when mesh came out. However, sometimes I find just the right old [vintage?] item deep in my inventory and I feel like it pulls my look totally together.

I really like the new Band Jackets from Cracked Mirror for FaMESHed this month. Being a former band nerd myself, of course the first thing I think of when I think of band jackets is the letter jacket that I wore almost daily, but these are more like uniform jackets. Quite structured, very classic. These come with a short “shirt” inside, and I kind of wish they had a no shirt option to pair up with a longer belly covering shirt, but I do like this a lot.

The vintage item I found that I felt really went with my whole look was the Ginger boots from Shiny Things. They are from 2010 [very old in SL years!] and just sculpts, but I don’t think they look dated at ALL. *sighs* I miss Shiny Things. The store is still up if you want to shop there, though.

By the way, have you been to The Garden yet? If you haven’t, you need to go. I’m standing in the Bozeman Barn by Barnesworth Anubis and is it ever awesome! Big rooms and sliding doors and this fantastic two sided fireplace. It would be great for a winter sim!

Time to hop back into my inventory…or go do some more shopping!
