Back to the Beach!

Hello again, Fabulouses!  Ripley and I had so much fun on Monday, we decided to return to the shore for some more R&R.  I packed a bag with sunscreen, a towel, a magazine and, of course, Ripley snacks, then we headed off to one of our favorite sims – NorderNey.

Flirty and Free

I slipped on the latest free Fabulously Free in SL group gift from BlackRose before leaving home.  Bold and bright, with a white, black and dark teal color scheme, this strappy mini dress was perfect for a day of fun in the sun.  Its figure-hugging form will flatter any avatar, for sure.  I liked how the vertical stripes of dark teal at the bodice provided a touch of contrast to the otherwise horizontal bands of color, and directed the eye upward.  With plenty of versions for mesh bodies, plus mesh sizes for classic avatars, you’re sure to find just the right fit for you.

What’s Included:

•  Mesh in XXS, XS, S, M, L and alpha layer for classic avatars
• Freya
• Hourglass
• Isis
• Maitreya
• Physique
• TMP
• Venus

The Beach is Calling Me and I Must Go

Here’s hoping you can carve out a little time for some rest and relaxation for yourself this week.  Until my next post, happy shopping!

Cool Beach Guy

No Worries…

As I approach the holiday weekend, I am realizing how much I need a break from the stressors of everyday life. I’m ready to kick back and not have any cares… for a few days, at least.  To just hang out on the beach and be that cool guy that nothing ever seems to bother… I could be that guy. I will be that guy!

Too Cool for School….

The Cool Beach Guy Set is a free gift by ILLI found at Free Dove. The pants and shirt each come in classic sizes XS-XL and this FREE gift also includes sandals and resizable sunglasses. This is a cool and comfy way to spend the weekend… now if I just had one of those drinks with the fancy umbrellas…

Don’t Forget The Sunblock

Hey Fabulouses!  He and I decided to turn it all off for a little beach R&R.  Turn off the IMs, turn off the group chats, turn off the constant blog project in process, and thoughts of future blog projects.  Ahhh….  silence…  just the two of us and a big sandy beach.

Beach Bliss

The sweet scent of coconut sunblock filled the air and the warm sun shone down on us as a misty breeze blew through the palms refreshingly.  For just a minute there wasn’t a distraction in the world that could take me away from the bliss.  I turned to smile at him, and out of the corner of my eye… I spotted an awesome His & Hers Towel Rack behind us.  Wait what? Is that a group gift?!  Turns out, I can’t turn it off for very long after all.  It’s a good thing he was happy to sit there with  me long enough to get a photo!

His & Hers

In the New Releases area at Shutter Field you’ll find the His & Hers Beach Towel Rack as shown in my photo.  The rack includes the folded blanket, sunblock and hanging his and hers towels all with a land impact of just 4.  This piece is copy/mod so you can rez multiple copies and modify it a little if you need to.  I should also mention that there is a His & His Beach Towel Rack out as a free group  gift too.  This group is just 20L to join.

Getting Sandy

This beautiful couple’s pose by Just Posing is called “Sandy” and is available for just 1L on marketplace.

Furnishing – Shutter Field Beach Towel Rack His & Hers (free group gift / 0L / 20L to join)

Pose – Just Posing July Group Gift {Sandy} (1L – marketplace)

It’s a Line Up.

It’s a line up!

These chairs are guilty… guilty I say! Guilty of being stylish, comfortable, and affordable! They must be held accountable! To my wallet! And then promptly delivered to my home!

Of course… first I had to find them. But that’s okay. They were all in one spot! The Artist Shed is participating in multiple Hunts this April and you can stock up on stylish chairs to meet your decorating needs.

First up, I found the Bad Egg Chair. It is a mere 2 prim when set down. There was also a Good Egg Chair somewhere in the store, but it eluded me. So it is not in the picture. I’m sure it was just as stylish as this sleek black Bad Egg Chair version. And it was only 1L for my hunting time at The Artist Shed.

For a rainy day…

I love this Raindrop Chair in blue. It too is a 1L hunt gift at The Artist Shed for April. This one is part of the April Showers Hunt. All that beautiful style is only 3 prim, 1L, and a little hunting time at the main-store.

Something more rustic.

If you need something for your cabin, or maybe for roleplay, consider hunting down the Reclaimed Barrel Bench for 1L as part of the Barrel Easter Hunt. It is only 3 prim, has a great rustic appeal, and would fit perfectly into many types of fantasy (or country) settings.

Something retro.

There seems to be something for everyone at The Artist Shed this month, proven by chair #4. This one is free, just spend a little time hunting it down and find the Spring has Sprung Chair. It has a bit of a retro feel with it’s old fashioned colors, attached blanket, and flowered styling. It is a mere 3 prim, just waiting for you to pick it up.

Happy seating!
