A Sunset Swing

Hey there Fabulouses! Have you been to NyDesign lately? I stopped in the other day and have been trying to collect the new lucky chair prizes.  I haven’t had a whole lot of success yet with the chairs, but while I was in there I noticed they have a really nice free group gift that we haven’t shown you yet!

Soleil

The Soleil Outfit is perfect for a sunny summer day, including the belted shorts and micro cropped top.  A texture change HUD is included with six textures for the shorts, belt and top to mix and match at your pleasure.  I have included the vendor ad below so that you can see all of the options in the case that this cute pink and navy anchor print isn’t your jam.

Sizes Included:

• Maitreya Lara
• Slink Physique & Hourglass
• Belleza Isis, Freya & Venus
• Tonic Fine & Curvy

 

The NyDesign group is free to join and there are other group gifts to enjoy as well such as this one, I showed you [HERE]!

Escaping That Heat Wave

Hello there, Fabulous Readers, and happy Middle of the Week to you!  I hope your week is going well.  It’s so very hot where I am in RL – we are looking at the highest temperature yet so far this year, with a cautionary heat advisory.  So, Ripley and I decided to escape to the shore in SL and cool down with the help of a salty sea breeze.  Of course, I just had to wear the brand new dress that I picked up for free.

Stripes Go With Everything

I just love the combination of navy with white stripes!  It is just such a classic look that never goes out of style.  My strapless Melanie Blue Stripes mini from Faida is sure to become a summertime favorite.  It’s designed exclusively for the Maitreya mesh body (no other sizes/styles included), and hugged my curves like a glove.  I decided to pull on a short denim jacket to ward off the dampness in the air, but I could just have easily worn the dress solo.  That way, my shoulders would have been free to soak up some sunshine.  The best part of all – the dress was a free gift just for members of the Teleport Hub group, which has a teensy 10L join fee.  It’s one of those groups that I joined long ago, and I’ve picked up so many gifts that the membership fee was well worth the investment.

I’m off for a stroll around the lovely La Vie sim with my best buddy, and will try to forget all about the RL heat wave.  Until my next post, happy shopping!

I Wish Every Day Was A Beach Day

Good morning Fabulous!  It’s true…  I really do wish every day was a beach day, and maybe in Second Life – it’s a possibility since all it takes is a quick teleport!

Stocking Up On Swimwear

At Aleutia there are a couple of really nice bikinis with full texture change HUDs as gifts and I was lucky enough to win the MoonSoul Bikini in the group midnight mania board (20L to join the group) the other day!  I was just in the shop to grab the slurl, and noticed that today it is available in the other open FREE board without a fee. You might find it in the lucky chairs at times as well, as the wide variety of gifts seem to rotate through chairs and boards.

As I mentioned earlier, the Moonsoul Bikini comes with a fully loaded texture change HUD, and it allows you to change the colour of three areas.  Whatever your favourite colours are, it’ll be in there!  Fitted for Maitreya, this bikini is a keeper in my summer wardrobe!

Other free prizes available at Aleutia:

• Cookies For Breakfast
• Not So Risky Business
• Cut Out For Formal Wear

Good Vibrations

Hello from the tropics, Fabulous Readers!  Won’t you come over to Baja Sands and join me?  After reading Aline’s post the other day, I could almost hear the palm trees rustling in the sea breeze, and got a yearning to dip my toes in some salt water.   After I logged in to SL, a group notice popped up on my screen announcing the latest gift for the Mesh Avatar Appearance Maniacs group, and it happened to be for a sexy two piece bathing suit.  It was meant to be!  I scurried off to the Maci shop, scooped up the giftie, cruised back home to pick up the pupster, then packed our bags for an ocean getaway.

Tropical Vibes

One thing I love about the Playa suit is the pieces can be worn independently, so you can mix and match with other items in your inventory.  Wouldn’t this top look cute with a pair of black capris?  Since I had nothing but sand and sunshine on my mind, I wore the thong and top together, then hit the surf.  With its dangling ties and criss cross openings in the back, the bikini top offers plenty of sensual touches which complement the bright colors and lush print.  I’m sure plenty of admiring glances will be cast your way when you stroll along the shore in this sizzling suit.  To pick up a copy for yourself, teleport over to the Maci store, switch to the MAAM group tag, and tap the vendor.  Although the MAAM Group has a 50L join fee, there are numerous gifts scattered around the grid, so you get a lot in return for becoming a member.

Mesh Body Compatibility:

• Freya
• Isis
• Venus
• Maitreya
• Hourglass
• Physique

It’s time to soak up some sunshine and let the gulls and good vibrations carry my stress away.  Until next time, happy shopping!

She Dreams in Shades of Blue

Hello there, Fabulous Readers, and happy Middle of the Work Week to you!  I’m popping in with a quick post to share a lace trimmed crop top that you can pick up as a free group gift.  Featuring a sleeveless design, a soft dusky blue, and white piping on the loosely cut hemline, the Elisi top is perfect for warm summer days.  I thought the hue coordinated well with a worn pair of denim shorts, but if you’d prefer a different shade, the designer thoughtfully tucked a texture change HUD in the gift box.  Although you can’t see it in my snapshot, there is a delicate criss-cross lacing detail in the back that is just so pretty!  With versions for multiple body types, as long as you have a mesh avatar (no classic styles are included), I think you will be able to find the ideal fit for you.  To add this sweet shirt to your summer wardrobe, teleport over to Nessmarket, activate the group tag (there’s just a teensy 5L join fee) and click the vendor.

Mesh Body Compatibility:

• Altamura
• Freya
• Isis
• Maitreya
• Hourglass
• Physique
• TMP
• Venus

It’s time for me to once again rescue seagulls from the pupster’s undivided attention.  He thinks they are having great fun with him, but I’m not so sure they share his point of view.  I hope the rest of your week provides you with calm waters and smooth sailing.  Until my next post, happy shopping!

Longing For A Beach Day

Boat Gasoline and Coconut Sunscreen

What I would give for one of those carefree summer beach days right about now!  The warm breeze through the palm trees that continually blows whisps of hair into your bubblegum lipgloss without fail.  Of course it’s annoying in the moment to have to pick your hair out of your lipgloss, but right about now I’d take it, and like it.   I long for the kind of day that smells like boat gasoline, and coconut sunscreen.

Well-Made

This longing is all courtesy of my current weather… and Well-Made’s free group gift called the Holly Outfit that inspired my imaginary beach day.  The Holly Outfit includes the floral ribbon pants and the matching peachy pink cropped T-Shirt that you see me wearing today.  It’s available in all kinds of mesh body fits and the group is free to join with several other group gifts to enjoy!

Sizes Included:

• Maitreya Lara
• Slink Physique & Hourglass
• Belleza Freya, Venus & Isis
• TMP
