Distraction

A couple of nights ago, my dear husband had a "man's night" with my brother and brother-in-law to discuss shopping drink beer, play pool, and talk about boobs or something. He said I'm not allowed to come up when they're shooting pool because I'm distracting and throw him off his game. I have no idea what he means.




OneBadPixel just released these simple and sexy Jersey Tank dresses yesterday, and they are awesome! They're slim fitting and hug you in all the right spot. The dresses come in a variety of colors and you really could dress them up or down, depending on your mood.

It's a long weekend for a lot of us, so go pick up a dress and hit the SL town this weekend!

But Then Fall Comes

Do you ever go around for days not getting dressed because you know what you'd really like to wear but yet you can't find just the RIGHT thing, and then suddenly something new is released and it's perfect and exactly what you wanted? That's the new Coldlogic release for me!




Dresses and little jackets! Oh, I'm so thrilled!! I'm wearing the Plume dress with the Stiles jacket. The coolest part about this release is that you can totally mix and match the dresses and little jackets, or wear the dresses and jackets alone. I cannot wait to see what I can pair up these little jackets with because they're awesome! And as you can see, totally perfect for the upcoming autumn season!

If you love this as much as I do, head over to Coldlogic and shop!

I'll Save Myself

The Poser Pavilion [SLurl to come later] starts tomorrow, August 25th! The theme is Area 51, matching with this month's The Garden theme. It's looking to be a good one!!




Pretense has this awesome Area 51 pose box for the Pavilion this round, and it's really cool! Gidge and Cajsa collaborated on this item so what you get are awesome poses in an awesome projector box. The box comes in a few colors, and when you turn on your shadows and local lights, the box really pops to life!

Btw, did you know that Zaara is having a sale?? Yes ma'am, a 50% off sale! As soon as I heard, I ran on down there and picked up the Ashima blouse because I've had my eye on it for a while! The Atiriya jewelry I already had, because duh, it's gorgeous.

Have a fantastic shopping weekend!

House Crossed Lovers

She was a half breed, inheriting her blonde beauty from her mother and her magical abilities from her father. He was a pure blood, meant from birth to marry another pure blood. She was from the house of the Lion. He was from the house of the Snake. They snuck out when they could to meet in the gardens, in the forest, wherever they could find some time alone. But their 7th year was almost at an end. What would happen next for these house crossed lovers?





I've been a HUGE Harry Potter fan for years, and so when I saw that FATEplay was doing school uniforms? Well, like most of the grid, I almost wet my pants. I'm wearing the Jenny uniform in Gryffindor colors, and my friend Matthew is wearing the Henry uniform in Slytherin green. The uniforms come with several options for different looks, and also in grey or black. There is even a cloak! Oh, and a wand! The wand will even perform the Incendio spell. How cool is that??

Head on over to FATEplay to get your own uniform today!

Good Shoes Take You Good Places

As you all know, I'm all about simplicity in my wardrobe. Don't get me wrong, I love to see the glam, high fashion stuff, but for the most part, I keep my look simple because that's how I feel most comfortable. Ingenue is one of my favorite places for classic pieces and the new Pickford heels from Ingenue for this month's Collabor88 absolutely did not disappoint me!




This lovely shoe, which is an add-on for the SLink medium bare feet, is simple, classy, and feminine all in one delightful little package. The best part about items like this is that you can wear them with a fancy dress, or keep it summery with a pair of capris like I have done here. If you STILL haven't gotten the SLink feet, you really need to so you can go pick up these shoes today!

The White Swan Steps Out

Last night, my lovely family threw me a birthday party! I wore a "vintage" G Field dress that some said reminded them of the White Swan. Luckily for me, Gos Boutique released the new Paris Peeptoes just in time for me to go to the party!




These shoes are just perfect for almost any look - simple or fancy or casual or sexy! My favorite thing is that the peeptoe cut-out is a heart! So sweet! I'm wearing them in satin, and they also come in shiny patent. They come in several colors, and of course with the Gos Boutique OneTime HUD, you have hundreds of your favorite skins to choose from so tinting to your skin is a super breeze!

I hope everyone has had a great weekend!

This New Obsession Is Turning Us Alien

It's time for another round of The Garden, and this one is out of this world! *gigglesnorts*




Area 51 is the theme for this month's Garden, and the designers have gone all out with some space and alien inspired goodies! I never thought I'd decorate with this kind of theme since mostly I'm girly and floral and all that, but oh my gosh, look how cool everything is! Jet on over, because you need everything!

Oh, and PS: If you have me on Flickr, you might have noticed some of my photos not showing up. WELL. Seems like Flickr decided my photos of family, cows, and pretty clothes that cover up all the important bits necessitate a RESTRICTED label. I know, right? I'm fighting it, but until then, if you could please add my NEW FLICKR, I'd really appreciate it! Also, add me to your groups! I feel lost and alone without my groups! Thank you. :)

A Girl Can Do What She Wants To Do

Did you know that a long time ago, I used to be a model? Yep! And one of my very very first modeling jobs was for SySy's. I was a live model for her in her store, and even got to model for her on a Second Life tv show! Of course, that was many years ago and no one is paying me to stand around looking pretty any more, but I still love when SySy comes out with something new!




The new Geste halters and skirts are awesome! They come in both florals and solids, but I wore one of each for this photo.

I think it's time to just go stand around looking pretty!

You're Gonna Miss Me By My Walk

Have you ever noticed that we spend a lot of time looking at our own backsides in SL? When we walk around, our eyes are just THERE. Right on our booties! But luckily there are some fantastic stores out there that make items that make our behinds totally look-worthy. Such as...




The new Damask jeans from OneBadPixel are great for your butt! Actually, they're great all over, because they hug your curves in ALL the right places. But yep, I'll admit, my eyes went IMMEDIATELY to my behind! With these jeans, people might be sad to see you leave, but they sure won't be sad to see you walking away!

Oh god, I'm so lame. LOL!

While you're walking away, people can see the cute bow in your hair on the new Misty hair by Truth! I always love how there is some little detail to Truth's hair that just makes it fab. For me this time, it's the little twist in the back of the hair that leads into the ponytail. You can't really see it in this picture, but when I got the hair, I was just delighted to see it!

Time to walk!

All Aboard!!

We've only got a few weeks of summer left, but that's plenty of time to do some sailing! And wearing the new items from Stellar will make you feel ship shape!




I just adore the new Abigail halter and the Anchors Aweigh skirt from Stellar! They make me want to get on a boat and twirl around while I sail through the waters. So cute!

See you on the starboard side!

It's A Cruel Summer

Once in a while [well, okay, most days], I dress myself very simply and I dress myself for whatever the weather in my RL is. Silly, right? :) But oh goodness, has it been HOT here. The kind of heat that slaps you in the face and calls you bad names when you walk out the front door. So this is how I dressed myself. Luckily for me, my husband thinks I'm adorable and he commented last night on how cute I looked. Sometimes he's the deciding factor on if I actually blog, especially if I didn't put together the outfit specifically for blogging. So REALLY, this is more of a "Hey! Look what I found in my closet!" post.




Rebel Hope made these awesome Molly Tie Tanks for FaMESHed this month and I just love them! I've been on a big hunt lately for short belly baring tanks, and these fit the bill to a tee.

I hope everyone stays cool - literally!
