The Porch After Prom

A good movie trope is the “sitting on the porch after prom” scene.  You know, they’ve gone to the prom, shenanigans have been had, and now they’re on the porch having a moment.  I can dig it.  My nouveau-prom look (it’s nouveau because I’m wearing crazy boots) today is courtesy of Syndicate Sunday – a once a month 69 Linden sale wherein you can get some pretty awesome stuff!

Kiss Me

I got my fancy dress today courtesy of Oubliette (one of my fave stores) – it cost me 69 Lindens and came in a fatpack of hues.  I fee like I can dress it up or down depending on my mood – after all, the shoes make the outfit!  And speaking of shoes, these insanely awesome boots are from Sn@tch and also cost me 69 Lindens.  There are several different flowery and animal print styles to choose from on the included HUD, so you can go completely wild with your choices. The boots are sized for Maitreya, Freya, Venus, Isis, Hourglass, Physique and both Tonic bodies.   Syndicate Sunday runs until May 5th, so rush to the stores to take advantage of these deals!

Dress Sizes

• Freya
• Isis
• Venus
• Hourglass
• Pysique
• Maitreya

Bento Hair!

I found another great deal on Marketplace – this time courtesy of Vallani.  They’ve got this really pretty hair on offer for just 1L!  Best of all, it’s bento hair, which means it gently sways in the wind of your movement.  Awesome.  There are loads of natural shades in the pack to choose from, so you’ll be covered no matter what your preferred look is!  Go get it!

Now you too can go and recreate your “After Prom on the Porch” scene!

The Cusp of June

There is something to be said about the end of the month of May.  Sure, the beginning is great, absolutely – but the end… ah, the end.  It’s warm, the promise of summer lingers in the air, and you have a flood of memories from when you were at school.  Well, at least I do!  In my neck of the woods, Summer vacation starts at the end of June – so June to me was a magical month filled with play days, and popsicles and evening bike rides, all culminating with the last day of school. That’s when we could jaunt off to the public pool – can’t you just smell the sunscreen?  Ugh.  I love it.

Oops!

I meandered over to The Garage Fair, and found a whole lot of awesomeness.  There are a load of gifts hanging around, all priced at 1L, and some even being free!  I got my somewhat revealing dress from the Cheeky stall, and paid only 1L for it!  I’d say that’s a fair deal! Perfect for my walk to the pool.   My nail polish applier, that I picked up at the January & February booth,  was completely free and I think it looks just spiffing.  (I always wanted to say ‘just spiffing’).  It comes with appliers for Maitreya, and can be changed to several really lovely metallic hues.  I went with the shiny purple, because yay purple!

Dress Sizes

• Maitreya
• Hourglass

Now go out and enjoy the dawn of the month of June!

Everyday Magic

A little bit of everyday magic is sometimes required to get through a day, I think.  Today is not necessarily one of those days – the sun is shining, all the trees are in bloom, and it’s a long weekend for me… BUT sometimes you need a pick me up!  I found a little bit of every day magic in Second Life today, a simple little pleasure, that makes me smile…

Over it All

I am actually super obsessed with these overalls by Mel’s Store.  I’ve been searching for a pair of overalls for literally forever in SL, but they always looked a bit wonky on me.  I’m happy to report that these ones are a fantastic fit, and they only cost me 1L on Marketplace. Yes…. 1 measly little Linden!  Mel’s Store on Marketplace has a bunch of cute stuff all priced at 1L, so it’s seriously worth checking out!

Back at the Fishing Hole

I went fishing again at Sn@tch!  There’s generally a new fishing prize every 2 weeks at Sn@tch, and this one is called “By Popular Demand” because the creator, Ivey Deschanel, got so many requests for it.  Today, I’m showing off the sleek hair you can fish for, as well as one of the several tops that are available.  It’s really cute, so if you have a Seven Seas fishing rod (you can buy one for 100L outside Sn@tch, then use it every time you want to fish in the future), just park your avi and collect all the parts to get all sorts of lovely things for your inventory!

Top Sizes

• Freya
• Isis
• Venus

Love it

Oh…hey again!  How pretty is this outfit?  I feel like I should be dancing my heart out in a ballet, or perhaps twirling in a field of wildflowers.  I dunno, either option works for me!  I got this dress by rOrO with a bit of searching in the store.  It’s the prize there for the May Flowers Hunt – once you find the little potted flowers, just pay 1L and it’s all yours!  I really love the detailing on the skirt – it actually looks like sequins that have been sewn on.  And also, hooray for the harness strap on the top which just adds a little bit of toughness to the very girly outfit.  Keep those peepers peeled for it!

TGIF at the Beach!

I’ve been craving a day at the beach for a while… being landlocked in the middle of the USA… but I’m not exactly a swimsuit kind of gal. This pretty boho skirt with its strappy top was just the perfect answer to my mood. I also picked up a beautiful wavy hairstyle to compliment the look but you’ll have to act fast and pick it up today, as it is a Friday only steal, deal!

Hair first! ~ time sensitive!

Pick up my pretty wavy hairstyle at Exile for only 50L today for 50L Friday. You’ll get a regular mesh style as well as a bento style that waves in the wind. You can pick up a pack of natural colors or a pack of pastels, each for just 50L. I fell in love with this pretty style and couldn’t pass it up. It fit my relaxed mood today just perfectly. The weekend is almost here after all!

Continuing the World Tour…

I wasn’t done with the World Tour Hunt. I’ve already showed you several great prizes and when I ran across the 2L gift at Prism, I knew I had to share it with you Fabulous readers. This gorgeous boho feel skirt and top are meant to be worn on breezy days at the beach or… anywhere really.

Dress sizes available:

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

Going on Tour

It seemed fitting that since I was on the trail of the world tour hunt that I should visit the Eiffel Tower. I took a picture in front of it with a few of my choice gifts from the hunt. I outfitted myself from hair to shoes for just 6L in World style and you can too… then take a tour of the Tower yourself!

The Hair.

My hair is a free style from Firelight! as part of the World Tour Hunt. Like all the gifts it is just 2L to pick up. It only comes in the brown shade shown, but you do get both a regular version plus a busty version of these luscious locks!

Styling.

My stylish Dress is part of the World Tour Hunt as well and is from Meander. You also get the hat, which I edited to fit in my hand, but you can wear on your head. Again, it is just 2L and a little hunting time for the globe.

Available dress sizes:

Classic XS – L
TMP
Ocacin
eBody
Maitreya
Tonic Fine & Curvy
Belleza Freya, Isis, and Venus

Shoes to match.

Pick up my shoes at Lindy Modern & Retro for 2L as part of the World Tour Hunt as well. They just happen to match this dress almost perfectly I think! The gift box includes shoes for Maitreya, Slink and Classic feet!

Candy Buttons

There will be days when you want to give up. There will be days where you want to stay in bed and hide.  And then, there will be days when the world tastes sweet, sweet as those little sugar dots you used to buy back in the day. I think they were called Candy Buttons.  You know – the little dots on white paper that you could peel off and eat?  I used to love those things, mostly because they were hard to find.  I found a dress, however, that reminds me of all the sweet treats and happy days of our youths!

Mini Hunt Alert!

How much do you love this sweet polka dot dress from Tatiko?  I absolutely adore the mesh panels on the sides, and of course the multicoloured polka dots that remind me of Candy Buttons.  I got the dress for 1L instore at Tatiko, as they’re having a mini hunt for spring!  Walk around the store looking for the potted plants (there are 5 of them) and buy the ones that you love for 1L.  There’s a poster up above the front desk showing what each one contains so you can shop around a bit!

• Freya

You Can Never Have too Much Hair

Beusy currently have the hairstyle I’m showing off as a free group gift!  The “Lilac” hairstyle features two short braids that I think will come in super handy during the warm summer weather I’m sure will make an appearance soon!  This hairstyle features loads of natural colour options, as well as the possibility of removing the bangs and adding some wisps of hair.  You can grab your own by joining the group for free!  Yay!

I think I deserve a treat after all this writing!

Club Wear in Two Stops and 3 Linden

Love was mentioning how she moved from the big city to a small town when she was young and brave. I grew up on a farm… it didn’t even qualify as a small town… and when I went off to college, I moved away to the city. I remember going to clubs and bars for the first time just to play pool because back home, the closest town nearest me didn’t allow women into the pool hall (yes it was that old fashioned!). So when I got to the city I was so excited to go and just play pool at all the hang out joints! I’d dress up for a night on the town and head out, buy a diet pepsi and play pool. It was great fun!

The perfect outfit.

This outfit I’ve put together is perfect for club wear and will only cost you 3 Linden total and a little bit of hunting time. You’ll also only have to make 2 stops to get the dress, shoes, and hair!

First, make a pit stop at Barbed Wire Kisses. They are participating in two great hunts right now. For 1L as part of the Cute and Curvy Hunt, you can hunt down a lolly pop and pick up my cute little two piece outfit. The dress comes in the following sizes:

• Maitreya
• Tonic Fine & Curvy
• Hourglass & Physique
• Freya & Isis

While you’re at Barbed Wire Kisses, be sure to hunt down the globe for the World Tour Hunt and buy it for 2L. You’ll get the shoes in the picture above that are almost a perfect match for the Cute and Curvy outfit! These heels come in sizes to fit Slink, Maitreya, and Belleza feet.

New Hair too!

Take a last stop to Desmonia and you’ll be all set. The hair I’m wearing in the picture comes in a full fatpack of colors and currently the group is free to join. But HURRY! This is a limited time offer and the group is set to go back to a join fee any time now. You don’t want to miss out!

Laundry Day

I swear Love never runs out of clothes. Just look at everything she found here, and here, and here! I – on the other hand – am a guy. And I wear my stuff until I’m down to nothing but socks and underwear for laundry day. So that’s how I ended up at the laundry mat in my socks and my skivvy’s. At least I get to do it Faaaaaabulously.

Doing Laundry…

If you want to pick up my skivvy’s you won’t even have to leave the house for the underwear. My briefs are a 1L Marketplace gift from Brah. Now these pink undies aren’t for every guy, but if you want to show a little LGBT pride, you might want to add these to your wardrobe! I can’t tell you what they say on the behind, you’ll just have to make sure your adult settings on marketplace are set and check them out for yourself and decide if you want to be… risky in your underwear choices. They only come in an applier for the Belleza Jake Body.

The Socks!

Head over to the TMD event and pick up these awesome FREE socks by Cold Ash! They are perfect for hanging out at the laundry mat or at home… or anywhere really. Along with a color change hud and 10 color choices…

You’ll get socks to fit:

• Jake
• Gianni
• Slink
• TMP

No Pain, No Gain

And oh yeah… hurry up and stop by the Bodyfy Event. Pru showed you some of the awesome gifts in her post here and Astrid showed you a gift here. I stopped by to check things out myself and picked up this great tattoo from Identity. It was painless really! Just click the buy button for 0L and the tattoo was mine!

You get fresh and faded applier layers for the following bodies:

• TMP
• Omega
• Belleza
• Maitreya
