A Bit Snobby

I am feeling a bit like a snobby shopper today.  It’s the complete antithesis of who I really am, but sometimes playing a role can be lots of fun.  I detest when people are mean or entitled, but this outfit is letting me explore the look without any of the drama!

Parisienne

My snobby yet chic look today is courtesy of Masoom.  You can get this very cute dress over at Cosmopolitan by joining the free group.  I particularly enjoy the little tied cravat bow around the neck.  It gives me all sorts of Paris in the 60’s vibes, and there’s nothing wrong with that!

Sizes

• Freya
• Hourglass
• Maitreya

Don’t wait too long, this round of Cosmopolitan ends on the 11th!

I can’t keep the snobby charade up for long, but I do love a good lewk!

Sweet and Juicy

Ah, watermelon.  The fruit that (to me) embodies summer like no other.  The bright colours, the sweet taste and the refreshing effect do have a certain pull on my spirit!  Now before I wax too poetic about a member of the cucumber family (which watermelons are…yowzas), I’ll just get into the fashion!

Fruit Salad!

The Fruit Salad Hunt has begun and there are lots of fun, flirty prizes to hunt for!  I made my way over to C!L and picked up this insanely adorable set that comes with the t-shirt and shorts.  To grab your own fruit salad-inspired outfit, just hunt for the big juicy strawberry at C!L and then pay 1L for the outfit! Your hunt clue is “Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue”

Somewhere Beyond the Sea

Beach season has perched itself firmly in my spirit.  I live not far from a beach in RL, but it’s not the kind of beach that we all dream of – soft sand, crashing waves, and warm waters.  It’s more of a thin ribbon of sand leading you to icy cold depths.  I’m not complaining one bit – it’s a beautiful lake – but I always wished for something traditionally beachy.  I get my traditional beach-bound moments in SL, I guess!

Choices

Seniha have been spoiling group members recently!  Pru showed you a recent group gift HERE which is still available, and now they’re getting us ready for the beach with their newest group gift!  The Ariana bikini comes with lots and lots of texture options in the HUD, which allows you to switch the top and bottom separately for your own look.  There are nautical stripes, tropical flowers, and even solids.  Your mixing and matching will never get tiring!  To get this lovely gift, just join the Seniha group for free, and click on the vendor near the entrance.

Sizes

• Freya
• Hourglass
• Isis

See you at the beach!

A Slice of Heaven

It’s one of those days where all I want to do is go out, buy ridiculous amounts of objects that I don’t really need, and then finish with a massive bowl of ice cream.  Doesn’t that sound wonderful?  I think everyone has their own idea of heaven, but that might just be one of my favourite iterations!

Gacha Good

Kustom9 is in full gear right now, and Amitomo are back at it with their newest gacha.  I can never resist playing the Amitomo gachas, because they really are a great deal.  You usually walk away from 1 or 2 plays with a full outfit, and with a bit of luck you often land the rares.  This has been my experience at the very least!  I promise that I only played this gacha three times (at 69L per pull) and I landed this full outfit (the dress, jacket, bags and ice cream, all with HUDs to customize the bags and ice cream, as well as the hand colour) as well as the rare hair.  In my books, that’s an awesome deal!  Plus…just look at it, how much more late 80’s early 90’s appealing can you get?  This fun outfit comes sized for Maitreya bodies and there are loads of different versions of the outfit you could end up with!  Check out the vendor pic below!

Good luck!

Feigning to Surf

Hello hello hello my lovelies!  Time to hit the beach for a bit of sun and surf.  By surf, I obviously mean looking fabulous while standing next to surfboards because hand eye coordination isn’t really my strong suit.  Wait, do you need hand-eye coordination for surfing? Or is that balance?  Whatever it is, I don’t have it!  That’s ok though, I still look fab!

Surfing USA

To the beach I went, in my newest rainbow swimwear from Sass!  The monthly group gift has made it’s appearance and I love the bright hues.  To get this bathing suit, just join the Sass group for 10L, then pay the vendor 1L which will then be returned to you.  There are monthly group gifts to be had, and they’re all super cute!

• Freya
• Legacy
• Maitreya

Reign O’er Me

Reign also have a new group gift, which is this little flowered choker.  I like all the details on this gift, from the see-through plastic all the way down to the colour changeable roses.  To join the Reign group, it will cost you 250L but there is  room full of gifts, and many of them are really high quality shoes.  Take a peek!

Surf’s up!

Here in the Garden

Can you believe it’s already the end of the first week in June? I’m pretty sure May was the longest single month I’ve ever experienced. I’m happy to be here in the month of June. Speaking of it being a new month, that means there’s a new group gift available at American Bazaar. This pretty peachy-pink colored dress with the stylized floral print is the free American Bazaar group gift for this month. It comes in sizes fit for Belleza (Freya, Isis, Venus), Slink Hourglass, and Maitreya Lara. The American Bazaar group is free to join.

Feeling cute in my new dress I decided to take a stroll through the trails at Otter Lake. There are so many lovely spots to explore there. My pose and the butterfly prop are a free group gift by Hazeel at the Pose Fair Market. The set comes with the pose, 2 versions of the butterfly prop (one transferrable, one not), and a pose-ball version of the pose. To get yours you’ll need to join the free-to-join Pose Fair Market group and stop by the Hazeel booth. There you’ll find the gift pose waiting.

A Night In

I’ve been feeling indulgent today, feeling the need to drag myself up out of the doldrums quarantine can sometimes bring me to. What better way to self-indulge than to wander through Tres Chic while it’s full of free gifts (thanks to this being an anniversary round)?! Aline gorgeously showed off a few of the generous Tres Chic group gifts in her post “Back in the Day“, and I wanted to share just a few more while they are still available. The Tres Chic group is free to join, just wear the tag and click the gift boxes to get your freebies.

Elven Elder

My lavender trimmed hoodie is the Tres Chic gift by Elven Elder. Purple, and just about every shade thereof, is a favorite color of mine, so this freebie is a need. It comes in the color shown with a few size options. It also comes with a hud that lets you adjust the materials and glossiness of the hoodie.

Sizes Included: Legacy, Belleza (Isis, Freya), Maitreya Lara

BH9

These cool blocky glasses are the free Tres Chic event gift by BH9, they come with clear lenses like shown, and with dark lenses. They are unisex, and can be sized via touch menu.

Peace Love Music and Air Hockey

Waiting is always hard, especially when I’m waiting for Blue to get home so I can attempt to beat him at air hockey. The last time we played, I am pretty sure he took it easy on me. lol This shiny new air hockey table, the cool wall hanging, and the matching rug are all gifts on the Retro Hunt from Tentacle Experiment. Each of the furniture and decor pieces in this set are copy so you can rez multiples.  My tank-top is also a Retro Hunt prize you can find at The Bold Llama. I have to say, I am genuinely digging these bright colors.  The Retro Hunt is a dollarbie hunt and it runs from now until the end of May.

Adventure Time

It’s time, to get up, go someplace new, I need an adventure. I’ve got a comfy but cute travel-ready outfit, and food we can eat on the road. Now all that’s left is to pick a place and go. Before I hit the road, I’ll tell you about this cute t-shirt from Aegyo, and how you can get it plus this fast food grub from Junk Food for free.

Aegyo

I’m a sucker for a good tshirt. Truth be told I’m a jeans and tees kind of girl at heart. This tied tee is a free group gift at Aegyo. The group is free to join. This top at Aegyo comes in 2 versions, one with the lazy “Not Today” kitty that I have on, and another “I love” graphic tee. Each of the two designs come in multiple colors and two sizes.

Sizes Included: Maitreya Lara, Legacy

Junk Food

Did you know that Junk Food has a Midnight Madness board with no group required? That’s right, it’s free for everyone. It also has a low target. The current prize on this MM board is a set of fast food favorites undoubtedly inspired by Wendy’s. The “Gingy’s” fast food set at Junk Food includes burgers, fries, fountain drink, a shake in chocolate or vanilla, spicy chicken nuggets, and held paper fast food bag. Each of the food items come in bento hold versions, and décor versions.
