It’s A Cruel Summer

Once in a while [well, okay, most days], I dress myself very simply and I dress myself for whatever the weather in my RL is. Silly, right? 🙂 But oh goodness, has it been HOT here. The kind of heat that slaps you in the face and calls you bad names when you walk out the front door. So this is how I dressed myself. Luckily for me, my husband thinks I’m adorable and he commented last night on how cute I looked. Sometimes he’s the deciding factor on if I actually blog, especially if I didn’t put together the outfit specifically for blogging. So REALLY, this is more of a “Hey! Look what I found in my closet!” post.

Rebel Hope made these awesome Molly Tie Tanks for FaMESHed this month and I just love them! I’ve been on a big hunt lately for short belly baring tanks, and these fit the bill to a tee.

I hope everyone stays cool – literally!

A Sidewalk Sundae

I used to be a huge cake fan. Layer cakes, bundt cakes, cupcakes… all cakes, all the time! LOL! Okay, not that bad. But lately, I’ve been more into ice cream. I am all about the ice cream!

What Next came out with this cute cute Sandbridge Ice Cream Cart for The Garden this month, and I love it! I’m starting to think I might need to hit a growth spurt, though, because I can’t see into the cart to pick my ice cream!

And like I mentioned yesterday, I’m still on a huge Coldlogic kick after their new release. The Matthews dress is soooo summer perfect! It’s LOW in the back, but not so low that I’ve got any butt cleavage going on, so yay for that! But this is just so pretty and airy that I want to wear it forever.

I don’t know about you, but I have more summer shopping to do!

One Summer Dream

I have been in TOTAL summertime mode lately. Summer is just that special time of the year where you can spend all day frolicking on the beach, and then spend sunset in the arms of the person you love.

Coldlogic did a huge new release yesterday! I’m wearing the Ramsey shorts, which were my favorite shorts out of the new collection. But there’s lots of tops, shorts, and dresses for you to get and you’ll definitely be seeing me in more items in the coming week.

Poser Pavilion is awesome, and I’m using the Can’t Swim pose from WetCat for the event in the first picture. It’s really awesome because if you use the posestand, the life preserver just pops up. Love!

If you haven’t been to the Cancer round of Zodiac yet, you need to go! That’s where I picked up the lovely Guanshiyin tattoo from CoLLisions, and the very hot Cling couples pose from !Bang.

Enough of that, time to shop and enjoy this lovely summer day!

Love Is A Verb In My Room

Summer is definitely here! I don’t know about you guys, but some days during the summer, I’m awfully lazy with the heat. All I want to do is lay down in a beautiful bed, in a nice cool room, and just rest.

There are three really awesome events going on right now – Zodiac, The Garden, and Summerfest! And there are lots of gorgeous home and garden items at the events! I’ll admit that I’m being super super lazy at the moment and I don’t know exactly which event certain things in my room will be found at, but it really just means that you need to hit all three events and check them out. I’m sure you don’t mind, right? 🙂

Events You Need To Go To:

Zodiac – Cancer Round
Summerfest ’13
The Garden

Stores Where All This Stuff Came From:

Cheeky Pea
Floorplan
The Loft
Pilot
Pixel Mode
Second Spaces
Mudhoney
Funky Junk

I’m no beauty queen, I’m just beautiful me.

Two great events are going on right now – Zodiac and The Arcade! I swear, if you think there’s nothing to shop for this month, you’re living under a rock because there are so many great items out there on the grid right now, I wonder if the designers have slept in months!

From Zodiac, DCNY has this great Twin Rose tank and skirt set! I’m wearing it in pink, of course! And Adorkable has a nice little pack of Smart poses for you, too!

Now I’ll admit to not being much of a Glam Affair fan in the past, but oh my GOSH, the Lulu skins from The Arcade just stole my heart!! I couldn’t rest until I got them all! [Well, until my husband got them all for me. I’m really crashy right now and he’s way way better at this gacha stuff than I am. Thanks, honey!] The pretty Lory hair from Wasabi Pills was also on the “must have” list, along with the fabulous Fairy Tale charm bracelet and Enchanted Rose necklace from Noodles! I’m a huge Beauty & The Beast fan and that rose in a jar is my favorite thing about the movie.

Now shoo shoo… it’s time for more shopping!

Is It Raining With You

Collabor88 started today! Woot woot! The theme this month is “Rain or Shine” and the designers have totally had fun with the theme as usual! I know there has been some debate lately, so I’ll just say this: C88 was NEVER intended to be an event where people would sell everything for 88L. I have been blogging C88 from the beginning and never never never was it said that all the items would be 88L. If things seemed less expensive in the beginning, it was because it was in the pre-mesh days when a lot of things were less expensive! If you have a problem with the price of these items, you’re certainly not required to shop there. But I hope you still will go to Collabor88 and support the designers, because these items are pretty darn awesome. 🙂

Strong Like Bull

Hey hey, it’s almost May! Jane dropped some great new releases recently and Zodiac is going strong. Strong like bull!

The Day Trip dress from Jane is one of those beauties that you can totally dress up or down, whatever your style is in that moment. I really love versatile pieces and this is definitely that kind of dress!

I totally fell in love with the Andorra necklace that appears to be a collaboration piece between LouLou & Co and Virtual Insanity for Zodiac. It’s girly enough for someone like me, but still has an edge to it.

I took these photos out at Cica Ghost’s Rust exhibit. It’s really a cool build, so I suggest checking it out.

Have a great end of April!

Every Drop In The Ocean Counts

We have our own little private beach on Bluebonnet just a few steps from our home. I love spending time on it and it makes it just that much nicer when I have pretty new clothes to wear while playing on the beach!

Stellar is part of My Attic this month, and has brought us a great outfit called Spring Into Summer. The outfit includes the long skirt that I’m wearing, plus a bathing suit, sunglasses [also shown], earrings, a popsicle, and eye makeup. If you’re into huge boobs, it also includes the Tango applier. I just adore the long skirt! I wanted to show a little more skin, so I paired it with the top of the Stillwater bikini from OneBadPixel.

Zodiac has started in the Taurus round, and there are a lot of great things to buy! My pose today comes from the Intuition pack by !Bang for Zodiac.

Go do some shopping, and then let’s hit the beach!

It’s Time To Begin

The first day of Spring is rapidly approaching, and I am thrilled! I love the start of new seasons, but spring is a special favorite because it is such a rebirth of life. In my opinion, of course. 🙂 And I’m also just so happy with all the lovely spring clothes that are hitting the grid!

Gos Boutique‘s new Lolita espadrilles are ridiculously cute and so very very perfect for spring! If you remember, Gos had espadrilles years ago, but these ones look even MORE amazing because they are mesh and have the foot & sheath so that it fits a LOT better than the old ones did. The espadrilles also use the Colour+ system, meaning that if you buy one pair in blue and later buy one pair in red, you can mix and match the colors of the ribbon, seam, toecap, and laces using the included HUD. I’m only wearing mine in Dusk Blue, but I had a ball mixing up all the colors to get a bright and cheerful look! These shoes are exclusive to The Boutique currently.

OneBadPixel released some new items recently, including these fab Cuffed Denim shorts, which I’m wearing in a floral print. I had a pair almost exactly like this in RL when I was younger! These shorts fit SO well, too! Sometimes mesh shorts tend to give me a really super huge bubble butt or cut off weirdly, but these are perfect!

Drift is one of those stores where every time they come out with something new, I just get super happy! I’m wearing the new Hangover tank, which is just a cute strappy tank that has removable ruffles at the bottom. I’m not wearing the ruffles today because I was just thrilled to death to find a short mesh tank, but the awesome part is that you can change the colors of both the ruffles and the tank separately. How much do you love options like that??

Well, I’m off to play with my new spring clothes!

You don’t drown by falling in the water; you drown by staying there.

Zodiac is still going strong and honestly, I think this might be the best round yet. Now, I know I’ve said that before, but wow, this round is something! If you haven’t been yet, hit it up this weekend!
