At The End of The Day

Hi there, Fabulous Readers!  It’s been a long day of riding the waves, and the pupster and I are having one last look across the water before we head home for the night.  Today’s little get away to the shores of Kanaloa Surf Beach was inspired by a budget-friendly wet suit that I picked up over at La Perla.

Fits Me Like a Glove

Featuring a deep shade of indigo accented with bright blue piping and a dark gray inlay, this outfit will have you suited up in style.  The Surf Set Gift from La Perla covers the entire length of your legs to protect them from the chilly water and any scrapes and scratches you might encounter.  It includes half length sleeves and a high collar to keep you completely shielded from the elements.  The package contained classic mesh sizes from extra small through extra large, but no alpha layer.  Although there weren’t fits designed exclusively for mesh avatars, the small worked just fine on my Belleza Jake mesh body.  I’m including a forward facing snapshot below so you can get a good look at the logo splashed across the chest area.  Ladies, don’t despair, there is a female version included for you as well.  I couldn’t drag Kat out with me today….maybe next time!  If you’re up for a surfing adventure, head on over to the group gift wall at La Perla.  For just one Linden dollar, you’ll be well equipped for a day of play at the beach.

Sizes Included:

•  XS
• S
• M
• L
• XL

Until next time, happy shopping!

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!

Dabbing Sunscreen

Hey Fab Free!  I may or may not have gotten a bit of a sunburn yesterday (aka I did).  I wasn’t even doing anything too crazy, just walking around… There’s another SL perk – no sunburns!

Suit Up

Zomg, how cute is this bathing suit?  Yes, that’s a dabbing unicorn.  Is dabbing still happening?  I’m not entirely certain if that craze has passed, but this little unicorn is making it happen.  This bathing suit is a 1L find from Moshi on Marketplace.  You can wear the top and bottoms separately, so you could totally wear this top with a jean skirt and make it yours.  The bottoms come in 3 different colours:  Pink, Orange and White and are a Maitreya Lara exclusive.   I like it!

Don’t forget that sunscreen, y’all!

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!

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!

See you soon, my little wildflowers!

Peace, Love & Camping

Good morning Fabulous Readers!  I just have to say that Second Life camping is so much more comfortable than Real Life camping. When I arrived to my site today, it was all set up.  My bed was made, the campfire was lit – even my camera was set out and ready to shoot some wildlife photos.  I swear sometimes camping in Real Life is simply setting up half the weekend and then dismantling it all for the rest of the weekend.  Next time, I think I’ll try my RL luck at The Holiday Inn, so I can log in here and get a comfortable camping fix.

Need a free spirited adventure of your own?

Getting dressed for one, is the first step!  You’ll need to take a trip to HashTag to pick up these Ripped Capri Dungarees (fitted for Maitreya Mesh Bodies) as a free group gift (free group join too!), and then head over to Loordes of London and hunt down a black rose hunt icon for the Glam or Grunge Hunt.  Once you find it – pay 1L and you’ll have the Right To Be Free top and vest combo.  It’s not super easy to see in my photo as my pose is a little hunched over, but the vest is decorated with all kinds of cool wild child things like buttons,etc.  This hunt runs until the end of the month.

Sizes Included:

• 5 Standard Sizes + Alpha Layer
• Slink Physique & Hourglass
• Belleza Isis, Freya & Venus

Some Sunday Fun

“SPOT, COME BACK…  I WAS KIDDING!”

Spot will find ANY way to see who’s pulled up in the driveway!  On the back of the sofa, on top of the kitchen table, and even in the kitchen sink…  Should I take advantage of the moment and give him a bath?  Shucks, I shouldn’t have said that out loud.. at the word “bath” he hid… somewhere.  I will find him!  Spot by the way, is made by JIAN and is available as one of the gacha commons at this round of The Epiphany for 75L a play!  He won’t notice one more dog… right? 🙂

Sunday Violet

It was Sunday and I was just lounging around in my new sweatsuit by Siss Boom!  I picked up the Sunday Violet outfit for just 60L as a special limited time offer at the entrance of the shop. The jacket and pants come in several mesh body sizes and the white t-shirt underneath is an omega applier.   I think the events change out mid week, but I can’t remember for sure – so if you love this set as much as I do, make sure you head over there today to pick it up before it goes back up to full price!

Sizes Included:

• Pants & Jacket:  Maitreya Lara
• Pants & Jacket:  Slink Physique & Hourglass
• Pants & Jacket:  Belleza Isis, Freya & Venus
• Pants & Jacket:  TMP
• Pants & Jacket:  Tonic Fine & Curvy
• T-Shirt – Omega Applier

Eesh..  Monday already – have a good day!
