Beachin’

You know what every Wednesday needs? Beach time! I had just hit the Cart Sale ( if you haven’t gone, why NOT??) and I saw that Dark Water Designs had these great swim suits for both the guys and us girls and I thought, “Yep… the beach is calling!”  So I grabbed the bargain suits, just 10L each and rang Gabe up!

Tropical Cocktail Time!

This is the ‘Cocktail’ one piece in Merlot. As with everything from Dark Water Design, every detail is perfect and the fit is spot on. You get two versions of the suit: one with this tone on tone design and one solid colored. Not only do you get the suit… You get a recipe for a summery cocktail. I’m going to try the one included with “Merlot” asap! Of course, please enjoy the cocktails responsibly and only if you’re over 21! 😉

Gabe’s “Beach Shorts’ are also just 10L on the Dark Water Designs Cart. There are four suits for the guys. Two tropical flower prints and two camo prints. Again, the design and build are perfect. I like that they’re sorta sexy but still modest.

My Galentine

I was musing the other day that people can get pretty icky about Valentine’s Day.  I guess when you get down to the nitty gritty, and if you want to be cynical, it is a fairly commercial holiday.  BUT, why be cynical?  It’s winter, it’s cold, and we need something to cheer us up.  So I say, bring on the red and pink, slap on the hearts, and if you ain’t got a man, then celebrate your gals.  Bring on Galentine’s Day!

Carting Away my Heart

I found another AMAZING dress at The Wash Cart Sale!  The almost holographic colouring of this lovely little dress by The Little Bat is tugging at my heart strings, and not at my purse strings!  It’s 10L of gorgeousness in 4 fabulous colours.  I went with Sherbet, because I’m just so sweet ;).  This fatpack comes in sizes XXS – L with an Alpha Layer included.  The perfect dress for a date, with your sweetheart or your BFF.

Heart eyes all round, my Galentines!

Tanti Baci

Hey there Fab Free!

I’ve been feeling a bit sultry today, like I need to class up the joint!  I made my way over to The Wash Cart Sale, and found this super gorgeous dress by Baci!

Sultry Indeed!

The silky texturing is just absolutely gorgeous on this dress, as well as the colour grading!  Can you believe it only costs 10L?  That’s what’s so great about The Wash Cart Sale – you come across some superb finds for such a reasonable price!  I am feeling fantastically sexy in this little slip dress, and I’m sure you will too!

Oh, and if you’re wondering just what “Tanti Baci” means – it means many kisses in Italian!  The silkiness of this dress definitely makes me feel like I’m being kissed by this fancy little frock!

The Cubicle

 Workin’ for a livin’…

As we hit the downside of the week, my thoughts turn not to the tasks at hand, but to the weekend. To relax and be with friends and family and to do what I want, when I want, WHERE I want and NOT be stuck in this cubicle. My RL cubicle is larger than this one, but it is still windowless and dreary. This boy needs a little bit of sunshine about now…

I don’t want to work…

My office attire is this month’s group gift from Resun. The Ramon Outfit is a black shirt and tie with tan slacks. The Resun group has a joining fee of $100L, but I was lucky enough to join when there was a limited time open, no fee to join. (New Resident Tip: Join groups that usually charge a fee to join when they have free enrollment  for totally awesome gifts.)  I found the $10L Scott Randolph Boots (that Astrid originally showed [HERE]) on the Roped Passion’s cart at The Wash Cart Sale still going on.

… I want to bang on these drums all day

And I have two more hunt gifts from the Men’s Only Hunt 9. I found the Hipsta Watch at PBM Enterprises and my pose came out of the pose gift pack I found at Grafica.

This weekend, I’m thinking some surf and sand is just what the doctor ordered…

You Fill Me Up

Running on empty…

I’ve been riding up and down the streets of The Wash looking for deals that I nearly ran out of gas. Lucky for me there is a fueling station on the sim. I’m topping off my tank before I get back out there and find more great deals at The Wash Cart Sale. I am impressed at the selection for guys this round. It makes my heart sing and my linden wallet a little lighter, but only just a little…

Loaded for Leather…

I picked up the Ernie Leather Jacket Outfit for just $10L at the Brandy’s Boutique cart. This mesh outfit is just one piece, right down to the boots. I accented the look with the TopGun Glasses, a FREE group gift from A&D Clothing. Now, it’s time to get back out there and fight the lag crowds for more great deals.

Beachcomber

Floating  away…

Walking along the beach gives me time to reflect and for just a little while, to clear my mind from the “noise” of the events happening around me. It can be very calming to be alone with just my thoughts and to listen to the ocean waves, the breeze, and the occasional bird song. The smell of the salt water and water droplets on my skin make me feel relaxed, just like a sailboat floating along the currents…

When I’m feeling blue…

I’ve been told that blue is my best color because it matches my eyes, so today I found another Cart Sale find at Wash. I picked up both the Free Bird Casual Tee and the Striped Tailored Shorts for just $10L each at the Dark Water Designs cart. The tee also includes a texture HUD for different colors and each color goes will with the pants. I’m also wearing the Worn Denim All Star Sneakers, a gift from Black Label Menswear to the Menstuff Group. The MenStuff group does have a joining fee of $50L.

The Springtacious Cart Sale at The Wash continues through April 12th.

Taking the Plunge

Yeah, don’t dare me…

She wanted to go to the beach. Great, I thought, UNTIL… she wanted to sit on her beach chair, talk on the phone, then decide she was going to read her latest “romance” novel. I came out to have fun. I said, “Hey, let’s go for a swim”. She just shook her head at me as she turned another page. “If you don’t come swimming with me , I’m going to throw you in the water” I threatened. She peeked up over her book and said those three words she knows not to say to me… “I.DARE.YOU.” Sorry, babe… you’re getting wet!

John Dee Green…

We found a cute his and her matching look at the John Dee’s Emporium cart at The Wash Cart Sale. She found the  ABRAXAS Crop Top and ABRAXAS Shorts for just $10L each and I decided to match her look with the ABRAXAS Espadrilles and ABRAXAS Shorts also, just $10L each. The Wash Cart Sale continues through April 12th.

This Group Gift has her upside down…

Wish You Were Here…

…. at The Wash Cart Sale

It’s that time again to head down to The Wash and find some great inexpensive deals.  I’ll be showing many items over the next several days and I’ll start off by wearing one look I found at the Rispetto Designs cart.  I combined the Gregory Mesh Shirt and the Klint Mesh Washed Bleached Blue Jeans for a super casual look. Each piece is just $10L… not a bad find for the money.

Just a drop in the bucket

Before the Cart Sale opened I was out on a World Tour… the World Tour Hunt, that is… and found a Wishing Well at Khargo. The well also includes all the landscaping behind me (wall not included) and only has a Land Impact of 10. This hunt gift cost just $2L to pick up. Every good well needs a bucket and I found just the right one.  The Holdable Water Bucket was found on the Marketplace by Arsia’s Gorean Delights for only $25L.

All the great deals at the Wash Cart Sale is just a drop in the bucket to look fabulous! The Cart Sale runs from March 29th – April 12th.

The Wash Bi-annual Cart Sale : Rispetto Designs

Happy Wednesday everyone! The Wash Bi-annual Cart Sale is about to end, so I wanted to make sure that you know this is your last chance to scarf up some great 10L bargains. The item I chose to highlight today is the Tempore Mesh Outfit from the Rispetto Designs cart. It consists of a toasty, nicely-textured sweater in a wine color, and a pair of blue jeans. Both items are provided in five sizes for a good fit and make for a cozy casual winter outfit. Truly a bargain at 10L! The deals don’t end there though. The Rispetto Designs cart is packed with 10L items for guys to check out including more sweaters, jeans and a pea coat! I am sure there is something on the cart for everyone. If you can, check out the final day of The Wash Bi-annual Cart Sale today, where 10L can get you some seriously nice garments. That’s all for the moment. Take care and see you on the grid!—–WHC Riler

The Wash Bi-annual Cart Sale : JZ For Men

Greetings everyone! This week I am covering some great bargains to be found over at The Wash Bi-annual Cart Sale where 10L will buy you an amazing variety of items! Now, this cart sale is on until the 6th of January, so there is plenty of time left to check out some amazing deals on display. The first cart I’ll show you is the JZ For Men cart, offering an extremely attractive sweater in five different color combinations. Each one is well textured and they caught my eye because they are quite realistic in every color variation offered. Each sweater comes in a full range of sizes, plus fitmesh versions, so the fit is excellent. For 10L, you can’t go wrong! Also in the pic, I am wearing the tan Mesh jeans they have on the sale cart. I am glad they included them on the cart since they go so nicely with the sweaters, and for another 10L were well worth the price. That’s it for now, let’s put an end to the myth that we all hear often on SL that men don’t shop. Come on down to The Wash. Until next time, I will see you on the grid!—–WHC Riler
