Love your curves and all your edges, all your perfect imperfections…

TSF 008

Morning everyone… well it’s morning for me here back at home in Florida.  It’s good to be back to familiar surroundings, except I’m sick. On the last day before returning home over the weekend there was a torrential down-pouring and from the hotel to the car I got wet.  It’s rare that I get sick by a little wetness, but by the next day being yesterday I had body aches, fever and a terrible sore throat.  Today isn’t any better, but I’m going to try and forget that I’m sick.

Instead I am going to do my best to think clearly to get this post done.  I’m featuring almost everything in this picture from ongoing events.  The Tropical Summer Fair is coming to its last few days ending on June 17th.  If you haven’t been… you really should as it’s got some amazing things for you to wear for the summer.  The folding stool with sitting poses is by [CIRCA]. I know you can’t see the top of the stool, but it’s got a  feathery design that fits any tropical setting. The handbag leaning against the stool is by Boutique #187, and is one of several designs and while I have it rezzed out, it’s also wearable.

This delightful braided hair is by enVOGUE called Estelle and is available in several color options. I’ve been growing out my hair in real life and over my holiday I flat ironed out my wavy tresses, but it was so hot that I ended up braiding my hair pretty much like this. It makes for a great summer hairstyle. This sexy bathing suit by PerveTTe is by applier and comes with the life saver tube. You can find it in other colors as well.

I’m also featuring a few items from On9.  If you’re not familiar with this event, it’s a monthly shopping event that has a little of everything from apparel, hair, accessories, poses to home decor.  It begins the 9th of each month through the 28th and besides an exclusive design by each of the designers participating there is a discounted one color item by each.  There is a photo contest during this round, so visit the website here to get all the details.

To complete my outfit for the day the sunglasses are by Haysuriza and what I liked is the options available to wear them on your head or on your nose.  The henna tattoo is by Nanika and went well with the red color I’m wearing.  It’s also an applier and this is where it gets a bit tricky as my bathing suit is also by applier.  I had to play with it until I was able to get both on, but it meant not being able to get fully the sides of the henna tattoo that are covered by the bathing suit.

The pose I used is by Amite and is one that is a part of the Ella set available.  Other items from this event are the wicker chairs by New Church.  There is an assortment of colors to choose from.  I went with these two colors to complete my picture, and on touch you could change the color of the pillow.  I choose to keep to the same color of the rest of the fabric, but the option is there if you want a little more color variety.

Besides items from the two events featured I am also showing some new things by DaD Designs. The double roman swimming pool currently available at Cosmopolitan.  It’s a fantastic pool that has poses for single, couples and family. The Mediterranean palm trees also by Dad Designs are at the LTD The Event. The trees have wind effect and by touch you can turn on and off the wind, adjust the sound, and give access and also resize.

I didn’t intend for my post to be so lengthy… and now I’m tired all over again.

Enjoy the rest of your day!

The day calls for a bit of relaxation

Sayo 024

Today I’m featuring items from the Bungalow Retreat Gacha by SAYO.  There are three rares and eight commons to the complete set.  It was released at Whimsical in May and can now be found at the main store.  It’s an inviting set of furniture that you can relax in.

By the way I’m traveling since a few days now and I had forgotten how much I dislike using a laptop and much less for Second Life.  I have another post lined up for this week, but other than that I am not sure how much I will be blogging until I return home next week.
Wishing you all a great one!

Dog sitting

Jian 008

I actually did this over the past weekend with my sisters dog as she traveled out of town for the day. Her dog is pretty tame and  is very content these days just to claim her space in the room and sit quietly.

In-world it’s a different story.  I can handle more than one.  These cuties I’m showing are the corgis from JIAN that will be available tomorrow at the Arcade.  There are 15 total with 12 commons and 3 rares with a 11% rare chance and $50L per play.

There is a new thing with the Arcade this round and that is the rewarding of loyal players who at 50 plays to the same machine will receive a reward.  JIAN’s reward is the kite flyer corgi, which has 5 different whimsical animal kite textures.

There is so much more to the corgis than what you see.  Get all the details on the corgis below the credits.

Tropical summer heatwave

SF 0023

Memorial Day here in America has been known to sort of unofficially mark the beginning of summer, which is around the corner on the 20th of June.

If you have noticed the change of the seasons is also happening here in Second Life as well with the summer fashions coming out, especially swimwear.  To help you plan your summer wardrobe the Tropical Summer Fair will start on June 3rd and run through June 17th to get you started.

SF005

I’m wearing the Kreso bikini by {JAS} that is available in 15 different colors and made to fit the Maitreya, SLink and SLink Hourglas version.  The necklace is by CODEX and comes with a color texture hud to change it to the color you want. The tropical jewerly by Izzie’s compliments it well and also comes with a color texture hud to accessorize it to your liking.

Both poses utilized will also be available at the upcoming tropical summer fair. The pose in the first picture is by Reel Poses and is complete with the Weimaraner dog standing next to you.  There will be some couple poses available as well so make sure you check them all out.  The second picture the pose used to show the jewelry much better is by EverGlow called sunshine and it’s a set of 10 poses for you to enjoy posing with.

More previews to follow in the upcoming weeks.
