My little pumpkin

It’s definitely starting to look like Fall in Second Life with all the orange, yellows and red colors you see around.  I’m featuring a few new items by unKindness to help you decorate for the season.

The County Pumpkin set, which can be found at the Tres Chic event includes the pumpkin seat, pumpkin accessories on the floor and the candle tray on the table. The seat comes with male and female sit animations.

Another item by unKindness is the spooky brigade decor that is leaning up against the wall made for the Autumn Effect Hunt.  You can hunt for it at the main store.

The other item that I am featuring today is the big baggy hoody outfit for the toddleedoo made by BoOgErS for the Kawaii Project.  The big baggy hoody outfit is available in two options.

The rest of the decor is listed below.

DaD 017

I became familiar with DaD Designs through their landscape creations and now being reintroduced again through their newest creation of the Tuscany Loft.   The loft at a footage of 24 x 30 is 100% original mesh and only a 40 land impact.  It’s beautifully textured and quite spacious and can be purchased at 20% off while at the Cosmopolitan Room.  It’s quite a bargain for only $390 lindens.

I’ve decorated using items already in my inventory and provided all the details below.

Memories take us back, dreams take us forward

I never tire of thinking of you 031

It’s a lazy Sunday for sure in both worlds.  Kuro has made a batch of breakfast pancakes for us to enjoy and is available today for Lazy Sunday.  The delicious looking pancakes come on a stand with a land impact of one.  You can find them at the main store.

Today,  I am also featuring this rustic bench by unKindness, which is their participation to The Lexi Project.  If you’re not familiar already with unKindness, it is a relatively new home and furniture store on the grid.  I look forward to showing you more of their stuff in the near future.  The bench will be available in both PG and Adult version, with single and couple animations and adult animations in the adult version.

In the meantime let me share with you The Lexi Project.  The owner of AngelRed Couture was diagnosed with Stage 3 Hodgkin’s Lymphoma and Second Life residents have banned together to support her by collaborating on a fundraiser to raise funds to help her with some of her medical expenses.  There are about 350 brands supporting this project, from apparel, decor, poses, skin, hair and so much more with 100% of the proceeds going directly to this cause.

The event is scheduled to open its doors Sunday, July 26th at midnight SL time.  If you would like to know more or interested in how to donate, please visit the The Lexi Projec blog.  I’ve included some more links at the bottom of the credits.

As I read her post on her blog, it was heart wrenching and my thoughts and prayers were sent up immediately for her and her family.  If you’re able to, please help support this event.

Bear 016

Doing a quick post to show the cute swimsuits for the little ones that Buglets has out now at the Fiction & Fables monthly event that began on July 7th and will run a whole month, so plenty of time to get your own swimsuit to enjoy your Second Life summer.  It’s a two piece mesh swimsuit that is actually just one item wear, so it’s easy peasy to put on.  I’m wearing the rose colored version, but you can find it in lilac, sky, mint and peach at the event.

With the sweltering heat lately, this is a perfect swimwear in any life.

You all stay cool.

This will be a quick post as I didn’t anticipate doing a blog post here today.  I posted earlier under my fantasy blog where I play dress up in fantasy role-play costumes, because it’s just a fun thing to do.  You can find the link on the side top corner of the home page of this blog.  Except Jian sent me this item for 25L Tuesday and I couldn’t pass up showing it as it’s a fantastic bargain for 25 lindens.   It’s a great home decor item that has 7 wood texture options, animated water and gosh only 2 land impact.

It’s available at the main store and still enough time for you to grab it.

Scraped Knees 001

I still bear some scars from growing up as a tomboy and even some as a clumsy adult like the slanted backwards letter “t” on my ankle for falling over bed rails during the process of moving.  It seems I can’t escape them in Second Life either.  Saying that my scraped knees with band aid is a new release by ‘Things’ for the newest round of The Fantasy Collective that begins today.  It comes with appliers for Slink, Belleza, Omega and TMP and a version without the band aid is also included.

I was pleasantly pleased when I saw the newest decor items that Little Branch recently released for the new round of Shiny Shabby.  The wall butterflies that come in various colors and the wall clock also in several colors fit perfectly with my newly decorated home.  I love having a decorated home in Second Life, though it does limit my space for creating scenes for blog posts.  I tend to always find just one more thing that feels right at home and my available prim count goes even lower creating more of a challenge.  Oh well, that’s another reason why derendering works so well.

Close up 004

I am also wearing a scarf that the designer of MeshedUp has released for the Fantasy Collective as well.  I did a zoom in picture above to show you how pretty it is.  You can find the scarf in several colors to fit just about any color combination that you’re wearing.

These scrumptious delights are one of Jian’s latest creations for The Challenge, with a special pricing of 195L that can only be had if you get there by the end of tomorrow.   There are six pieces to the sushi and sashimi set and only 1 land impact each, plus you also get seven color options for the dining wear.

I love Japanese food.  Though there really isn’t much foods outside of fresh tomato and asparagus that I can think off the top of my head that I don’t like to eat.

In the next day or so I will be showing some more delicious foods that can be found at ongoing events.  The best thing of all you is that you can eat until you’re stuffed and won’t gain an ounce.
