Learning to relax and let go is a must these days

On May 11, 2017 By AlexaIn Events, Fashion, Furniture, Home, LandscapingLeave a comment

This is where I wish to be right now, because who doesn’t need some relaxation from some of the stresses in their life right now. My day hasn’t started out as planned and I’m running into some road blocks, but I’m at the point that I’m just going to let it be what it will be.

It’s a gorgeous day out with the sun shining bright and great weather definitely for being out near the ocean. You can have it all day long here in SL so take a look at credits to find out where you can find all these goodies to create your own space and relax your stress and worries away.

Have a great one!

Late Sunday mornings

On March 26, 2017 By AlexaIn Events, Gacha, Home2 Comments

Hope it’s been a great weekend for everyone. Today I am showing this fantastic new kitchen by [Tia] out now at Shiny Shabby. You can get pieces individually or as a pack. My favorite thing about it is the color options just by clicking on the individual pieces. I was thinking to go with pink and then I thought let me make it appealing to both sexes as I can’t imagine many guys liking a pink kitchen. Though I left all these cute pink pigs out and the back-splash in pink.

I’m also wearing a new hair style by Iconic called Ella out now at Tres Chic and the cute floral romper is by The Annex out at the same event. You can find both in different color options.

Enjoy the rest of your Sunday!

Forever in your shadow

I checked the map yesterday for the Skin Fair thinking I might slip in there and take a look. Seeing all the green dots discouraged me as I didn’t want to fight any lag. Even though I really like the feature in Firestorm’s viewer of only seeing the people on your friends list. It makes for moving around much faster. Sometimes I forget that I have it on and go somewhere and think wow no one is here and then it hits me. I know. I laugh at myself too.

Hopefully, some of you have made it there. For today’s picture I am wearing the new Catwa mesh head Lona and using skin by YS&YS called Cherry. The hair is a new release by Iconic called Esme at Hairology.

The items that I am wearing are all from this round of On9, starting with the necklace by Baubles! by Phe, that also come with earrings. The French manicure nail color is by Nailed It and the black sequin dress is GizzA.

Have a fabulous Monday!

Just a day away before the Skin Fair 2017 opens the doors to what you will find is an amazing array of skins, mesh heads, shapes, makeup and tattoos for both females and male.

Today I am showcasing LeLutka’s newest mesh bento head Cate, which I am using with my own shape and some modification. The skin that I picked to wear with it is from the League and called Amaia. It was made for the Simone mesh head, but also fits other heads as well. I’m wearing the suntan version, but it’s also available in 6 other tones that range from pale to dark. I am also wearing one of the satin lipsticks also by the League, the midtones. You can find these plus some gloss lipsticks at the event.

The up-do hair style I am wearing is by Iconic, a new main store release that you will find in a range of colors. I especially like the wisps of hair that just give it a sense of realism and adds that bit of depth to make the hair come alive for me.

The gorgeous Moon Shine Nails are by Astralia, and are currently at Shiny Shabby. These are made to fit the bento hands by Vista. The last item is the dress by Sahara, which is available at the Darkness Monthly Event.

More previews on the skin fair in the coming days!

When they go low, we go high…

On February 11, 2017 By AlexaIn Events, Life2 Comments

I think the title quote from one of Michelle Obama’s speech will be my motto for this year. She did a marvelous job in describing that when someone is cruel or acts like a bully you don’t stoop to their level… no, instead when they go low, we go high. Let it pertain to anyone who chooses the low road… even including those you care for. Forgive them not because they apologized or will even acknowledge they hurt you. No, instead choose to do it for yourself.. to free yourself from that negativity and always continue to love.

Have a great Saturday!

After several attempts to get a scene and picture completed I finally made it here. It’s just one of those days, so today I will leave you to peruse the credits for what I am showcasing.

I do want to apologize if anyone tried to use my landmark to The Crossroads with my previous post. For some unbeknownst reason it didn’t take the event landmark and instead you landed on my empty work platform. I’ll have to make sure I pay more attention when I add the link.

Have a great one!

Those little side trips

On January 21, 2017 By AlexaIn Events, Furniture, Home1 Comment

Happy weekend everyone. It’s been a busy day for me and I’m really too tired for words — so I’m going to keep this short. If you haven’t made it over to Tres Chic you’re missing out on some great stuff. I’m wearing a casual sweater and jeans by Entice that are so comfy for the weekend or those last minute grocery runs when you have no food in the house.

I’m also wearing a new hairstyle by Iconic called Nicolette. I was real fortunate to be selected as a blogger and look forward to showing you more great hairstyles in the near future. The hair is rigged mesh and materials enabled and comes in a variety of color tones. You can find it now at Hairology, which runs until January 30th. I’m also wearing some lipstick by Zibska, which is called Nerissa and available at this round of The Secret Affair.
