Bellisseria Road Trip – Day Four

Clyde & I started day 4 of our road trip by driving from Campwich Lodge to a houseboat community where I had heard there was a café on the water.  We parked the jeep and I just had to take a picture in this adorable park where the butterfly’s fliting amongst the flowers. I choose another casual outfit suitable for driving and exploring, the jumpsuit is a free gift from Coco and I am obsessed with these slides from Reign (need to find them in RL).

 

We waked down to the houseboats and found YingYang Free Cafe, got a bite to eat before heading to the beach.  YingYang provides a 30 minute rezz in the slip so I put down my MadPea inflatable boat rezzer and off we went.

The views are amazing as your cruising along the coast line.

We made it to the beach in Puffin Head which is next to a community of Traditional Homes, such a lovely neighborhood.  We stopped for a coffee at Java Sprockets, I highly recommend you visit as the pastries are amazing.

Next to the café is a bike rental, well it’s free and you click to get a bike to wear so you can ride anywhere in Bellisseria.  Clyde and I biked around the community looking at all the lovely homes that are all perfectly landscaped.  Please explore the beach and community as there is lots to see and do.

After biking around I was hot and the water looked cool, so I changed into my bikini which was a free gift from Pure Poison and took a dip.  The poses that I used in this picture and next are also a free gift from Loel.

The day was almost over, so I had a drink at The Boat Bar and enjoyed watching the sunset.  Time to plan my next adventure in Bellisseria!

Stay tuned for day 5….

Dragon and blossom

Hello FabFam! This is ging to be a fast oe since we don’t have much time at all to take advantage of it! SO hold on… here we go…

If you don’t already know, the wonderful group, Historical Hunts (the website has hunt prize pics) is running their ‘Silk Road’ again this June and we are running out of time quickly to do the hunt. The Silk Road is your hunt for all things exotic and this year’s theme is Japan. There’s silk and kimonos and cherry blossoms galore! And of course a dragon or two!

We are showing off Amazing Creations free gifts for the Silk Road today. Gabe is wearing the ‘Black & Red Dragon’ shirt for the men and I have the lovely ‘Rock and Droll’ shirt dress on. The dress comes with two patterns and a HUD to change the color of the skirt if you’d like. The watercolor prints are just so pretty and the silk texture is beautiful. The only bad thing is all the gifts travel on down the road on June 26th. And that’s coming up! So hurry hurry, my dears!

Getting Swept Away

Have you been to the discount area at Siss Boom? It’s enormous, I don’t even know what to call it. Discount room? Floor? Empire? Nomenclature aside, it’s really fabulous and brimming with clothes for between 25L and 50L per item. And it’s Siss Boom so you know they’re gonna be good. I spent a relaxing afternoon flitting around the sales arena, ohhing and ahhing, and one of the things that I came away with was this “dance dress.” It’s priced at just 25L per color and includes an assortment of fitmesh sizes as well as Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink.

And then, well, I’m me so I’m also showing off a new skin. Junho is the new June group gift from Seven Deadly Skins. The gift includes all the skin tones in two versions, with and without eyebrows. One of the great things about 7DS is that the skins come as a single full BOM which includes both the head and the body. So no making sure you’ve got the correct body shade to match, no neck seams, just wear the BOM and you’re done. Easy peasy, lemon squeezey.

Twist and shout

Hey there, FabFam! As some of y’all might remember, I’ve talked about the Twisted Hunt many time before. It has to be one of, if not my very favorite hunt. The free prizes are usually top notch and the challenge of finding those pesky little cubes makes for a fun and sometimes frustrating hunt. My first stop on the Twisted Hunt this season is to one of my other favorite places: Shanti!

Just look at the gorgeous dress! This is the “Twisted Nonsense Tulle Dress” and doesn’t it make you feel like dancing? I put it on and immediately thought of night clubs and hot spots to show it off at. Now, the music is calling my name so I’m gonna go do some serious dancin’! And oh, if this dress doesn’t tickle your fancy, there are four other free prizes hiding at Shanti too!

Sizes Included

• Belleza – Freya, Isis
• Legacy

Drink More Irish Beer

It’s a fine day for a pint of Guinness. Surprisingly, Guinness beer is actually good for you. For example, it may work as well as a low dose of aspirin to prevent heart attacks according to researchers. So it’s good for the heart,  as it contains antioxidants that can reduce levels of cholesterol and help reduce blood clots and heart attacks as a result.

According to a study by The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, beer drinkers typically had greater bone density than fellow drinkers. Nutritionally beer contains calcium, iron, fiber & is lower in calories (the jury is still out on that one!). Might as well add a cardio workout in by dancing a jig.

Looking Smashing Wearing Green

More FabFree St Patty’s Day Hunt items come to us from Meander.

Eat Me, Drink Me and Get a Bit Too Merry

Hey Gang!

Tomorrow is Festivus, so a happy Festivus to the rest of us!  Get that pole out of the attic storage space and start airing those grievances!

Now to your normally scheduled post…

I had a crazy dream last night!  I was all dressed up for a Christmas party and I had this amazing Peppermintini to drink.  I took a sip and suddenly I was in Wonderland!  I was on a giant chessboard and the glitter on my gown was animated and sparkling!!!  It was a really cool dream!  Perhaps I had a bit too much to sip on while baking those cookies!

Oh wait, you can do all these things too (drink peppermintini on a giant chessboard while wearing an animated dress!  It’s second life!!!!)

Here’s how!

For a giant chessboard simply go in search under places and type in wonderland, there is a plethora of them!

Second, head to The Arcade and hit up the ChicChica machine for 75L and grab yourself a festive martini!  (Aline is sipping another flavor here)  They are all adorbs!

Third, head to Shanti tomorrow (the 23rd) and click the advent box for that day, you will have yourself my free sparkling, animated gown which fits:

• Slink
• Belleza
• Fitmesh M
• Maitreya
• Hourglass
• TMP

Sine the photo can’t do it justice, I made a short video clip which you can click below to see the animation:

All advent gifts at Shanti are free on the day and past days are 5L.  No group required.  (and if you pop over on Christmas Eve, you can get a free 500L gift card!  No group needed!) (no questions asked!  lol)

Lastly, you want your head to stay warm so head (no pun intended!) on over to Argrace.  If you remember my last post I mentioned they had several free new holiday gifts for both the ladies and the men and I am showing one this time.  You just need to join the update group (free) and click the vendors!  Caroline blogged another of the Argrace Group gifts here.  And Cre is wearing the same one as me here.

I can’t believe it’s almost Christmas!!

Cookies & Cocoa

Hey Gang!

Holiday festivities continue!  I’ve been working hard in my little kitchen trying to make some cute Christmas cookies that don’t look like a lunatic decorated them.  I think they are coming out all right.  Whew!  It’s work!  But it’s fun.  Now it’s time for a hot chocolate break.

All The Fixin’s!

My hot chocolate mug is from The Arcade, made by Movement.  I was lucky and scored the rare on this one, and it is overflowing with yummy Christmas-ness.  I think it must be straight from Santa because it says “Ho ho ho” on the cup.  Either that or someone thinks I have a much more fun social life than I actually have!  *snort!*

The machine is only 50L a play and there are so many cute holiday mugs.  You get one to hold and one for decoration.

Sweater Weather

In real life the heat in my apartment stinks.  You click it up to high but the baseboards stay ice cold, and just sort of come on randomly much much later on.  I think the complex controls them and they just put a switch to make us think we do.  So I am always cold.  That leads me to loving a nice snuggly sweater both in real life and second life, like this super cute one from VISion, which is a free gift at the Winter Shop & Hop.  They have three designs, all very cute.

There is no group needed to grab the Shop & Hop gifts, you just need a free afternoon to run around and grab them all.  It’s much quieter there now that the rush is over, so it’s a nice relaxing stroll now.

These sweaters fit:

• EBody Reborn
• Freya
• Hourglass
• Isis
• Kupra
• Legacy & Perky
• Maitreya & Petite

Festive Hats, Old & New

My cute hat is an old group gift from Argrace.  When I went to see if they still have it available, but instead I found a bunch more for both men and women, and you only need to be a part of the update group (there is a podium you can click on).  I don’t *think* there is a cost, as it is not an sl group, but as I was already a part of it, I couldn’t tell.  So let us know and we can update this post, if there is a cost.  I don’t think there is though!

Happy Happy Merry Merry!
