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!

It's Bright, Baby!

Tomorrow is awesome! One, I'm going away for a girls' night AWAY with my bestie! It's the first time we've had to drive away from home in a long time! Two, August starts and it's my birthday month! And three, FaMESHed opens for its August round!!




I'm so very in love with the new outfit from Mutresse for FaMESHed! The Lili sheer blouse and skirt is just so... ahhh! You can wear the skirt and blouse separately, and there are even sleeves that can be attached. And the BEST part of all is that there is a HUD with all kinds of colors and patterns for the individual pieces! Love love LOVE!

Wasabi Pills will be at FaMESHed this month with the new Sarah hair. I love braids and I love long hair, so you know I am ALL over this hairstyle!

Also at FaMESHed is this fabulous Falling Palm Suite from Eleventh Hour. Okay, can we just pause for a minute and pay our respects to how fabulous mesh items are? Yes, they look good, as is very obvious by this awesome set, but the land impact, y'all! The land impact! For the entire set - bed, tables, bench, fans, and the coconuts and straws you can't really see behind me ... 21 land impact. Can you believe it?? You can have your bedroom decked out with this great set for 21 land impact and still have room left over for more stuff!

Well, I'm off to pack. You guys should take a nap so you can get to FaMESHed when it opens at midnight!

Those Lazy-Hazy-Crazy Days Of Summer

So Mr. Zanzibar and I are fully enjoying our vacation time right now at our new vacation home. The best part about it is that I can wake up and immediately run down to the beach! So it's a good thing that the Boats & Bikinis Expo is starting because I'm going to need lots of swimwear!




The Thulu Cookini bikini from :{MV}: looks simple, but it's really a fun piece because of all the tentacles on it! If I wear to turn around, you could see that the tentacles go down over my butt, too! I hope I don't scare any sea life away! It's a mesh bikini, but I didn't even need an alpha layer to wear it, although it is included.

The Boats & Bikinis Expo is brought to you by Oceania Events and opens today, July 25th, at 3pm SLT. Have fun shopping!

Nothing But Fate

I have always loved fantasy clothes in Second Life. I don't have the opportunity to wear them a whole lot, but I always love to look! I think that'll all be changing, though, because Damien Fate's new store, FATEplay, is opening on Wednesday!







I'm wearing the new Wende dress from FATEplay and I think it's awesome! As soon as I put it on, I wanted to go skipping through the forest, singing with birds, and staying out of the way of evil witches. Since the shirt, bodice, and skirt are all separate, if you fatpack, you can mix and match colors!

The outfits for FATEplay make use of the new materials, so if you want to see all the details of the outfits, you'll need to be in a materials-enabled viewer and have advanced lighting on. I use Firestorm so I wasn't able to see all the details, but as you can plainly see, the outfit does not lose too much without seeing the materials and still looks pretty darn awesome.

FATEplay also has male fantasy wear, so grab your man and have some fun! FATEplay opens on Wednesday, July 24th.
