Today definitely calls for a Lazy Sunday

On April 17, 2016 By AlexaIn Events, Fashion, Furniture, HomeLeave a comment

It’s going to be a lazy one for sure, but without sun as I had enough of that yesterday. It was scorching hot at 84°F and with humidity it always makes it feel even worse and I wasn’t exactly dressed for the weather.

Today I am featuring what lil me is wearing and posing with. The cute lemon tankinis by Buglets is currently at this months round of The Play Room. It’s a gacha item, there are six common colors for the tankinis and six common colors for the sandals. There is one rare, which is a texture change parasol that will match the color of your outfit. It’s not the one that I’m showing as this one belongs to the pose also by Buglets. It’s the Dance in The Rain gacha pose set available now at the main store.

I’m wearing a new tattoo by Endless Pain, available at 50 Shades of Lust event that opened today and will run until May 6th.

Featuring also this summer dock by unKindness that comes with single and couple animations and two versions of the dock, with and without rotation animations. It can be found at the LTD The Event.

I made another group cover yesterday with my “This Day Brings to Life a New Beginning” post on Friday and now added to Features. Thanks everyone and have a great Sunday!

Greetings everyone.

Today I am featuring this beautiful cottage by DaD Designs, available now at the LTD The Event that opened a couple of days ago. There are some great features that makes this home even sweeter like having 74 pre-loaded colors to customize the interior and exterior of the home.

The creator always gives such a detailed description of her creations and of the homes she designs with all the features. I have included them at the bottom so you can read all the details.

I’ve been enjoying the beach front atmosphere lately and there is a sense of peace that I find just sitting or standing and letting my mind wander and lose itself in the beautiful surroundings and the reflections of the water and the sounds of the waves.

I saw a carrot. THIS big, no lie…bunny tale

On April 12, 2016 By AlexaIn Events, Fashion, Home, Landscaping, Life3 Comments

“Every bunny needs somebunny sometimes.”

I had planned to blog these adorable bunnies with little me, except I had to reprimand her for going off to an adult sim on her own. She gets my independent spirit and her degenerate behaviors from… well that’s another tale for another day.

The bunny family are the latest creation by Jian, and they are available at the just opened The Season’s Story. There are different versions as seen in the picture and just with a click you can grab the menu to change the texture of the bunnies.

As I might have mentioned before taking pictures and blogging is just a relaxing hobby for me. It’s another form of artistic creativity for me and art has been a part of my life since I was a child. The earliest memory of winning an art competition is when I was 7-8 years old and in third grade and I won my first prize for drawing the inside of a mouth. I just made the Jian group cover yesterday for my post with little me.

It’s a nice recognition, so I created a new page tabbed Features to sort of help me keep track of these things. I don’t really participate in many photo contests or do any private work, but it may be something that I might enjoy doing in the future.

Thanks everyone for your continued support.

Chasing pups

On April 10, 2016 By AlexaIn Events, Fashion, Home, ToddleeDoo4 Comments

When I got these adorable pups collection from Jian, it was inevitable that I would bring out little me. It sort of worked out as I was looking to blog this cute dress from Buglets, which is out now at Lucky 7, a children’s event.

You might remember that two weeks ago I mentioned that I was going to cut out doing posts with little me. I did in fact drop every commitment I had for blogging items made for the toddleedoo. It was a good decision for me even if I truly did and do enjoy doing posts with little me. One of the first creators that ever entrusted me with their creations when I started out on this journey to blog for the toddleedoo was Buglets. Even with understanding that I will not be posting as regularly, she has been generous enough to let me continue as one of her bloggers as my time permits.

So today I am also featuring the pup collection by Jian, which will be available starting April 12th at the Epiphany. This event is a bit different, just like Gacha Guardians, so please visit the Epiphany web-site where you can learn all about the event and how to play. The collection consists of 15 prizes to take your chance on. There are various kinds of pups to win – the wandering, companion and the held version.

Also featuring the pastel pathway by Dysfuntionality, which is a group gift. I’m showing only the short piece, but the collection comes with various pieces for you to design your own pathway as needed. There is another version with natural wood colors that can also be found at the main store, out today for Lazy Sunday.

I’ll be showing some bunnies next and I’m thinking little me may come out and play again soon.

Enjoy the rest of your Sunday!

Check out all these cute bears! They are the rest of the bear collection by BoOgErS currently at the Arcade.

Little me is wearing some items from the All The Little Things event. However , there seems to be an issue going on with the sim where the event is hosted, so I am listing only the creator/designer landmark as they item may have been moved to their own stores.

The cute dress and all the accessories is by Q’s Quties with the ladybug boots by Little Llama, both stores cater to kids in Second Life. The pose is by p.o.s.e., a great store for toddleedoo poses.

Enjoy the rest of your Wednesday!

Doing a final post for the Home & Garden Expo, unless I get a chance to do some more or feature items in other posts. I hope that by now you’ve had a chance to stop in and check out the expo and help support Relay for Life of Second Life. It ends on March 6th so you still have time.

I am showing some of the art pieces by Organica, which I absolutely love being an artist in real life. While I sketch from time to time in pencil I am more comfortable with a paint brush using oils. The easel horses come with a few poses as does the posing stools. The light illuminating from the can light was inserted by me in the photo processing just so you know it’s not that lit. I just wanted to give our model a slow burn… coughs, as he was being a bit obstinate in not wanting to use the poses in the stool. The canvases leaning against the stool are by Meshopotamia and also at the expo. I used other art pieces from various creators and are listed below.

I enlisted the help of some friends for this picture as it’s always nice to create scenes with other people and not just always by yourself.

Thanks Yama & Tall!

Country clubhouse living

Today I am showing another item at the Home & Garden Expo that is ongoing until March 6th. The fishing shack is by Sahi Designs and includes the boat, rock and fishing rods with pail, lantern and the birch trees around it. The platform is not part of the shack as I just created it to place the shack in the water. There are six texture changing options for the bedding and four options for the house and trees.

If you haven’t heard the expo is the largest event that features some of the best home and garden designers on the grid who come together to raise money for Relay for Life of Second Life. The Relay for Life is the main fundraising event for American Cancer Society, and Relay for Life of SL is the virtual counterpart that supports this worthy cause.

Please take a visit and support Relay for Life!

“Live quietly in the moment and see the beauty of all before you. The future will take care of itself.” ~ Paramahansa Yogananda

Hello everyone! Hope it’s a great Wednesday so far. Today I am showing this antique iron greenhouse by DaD Designs being released at the newest event called Whimsical that opens tomorrow at 12 am Second Life time. It’s 100% original mesh and comes in two versions with your purchase. With or without a ladder to climb on the roof, which is as easy as touching the ladder and sitting on the pose-ball that takes you up.

Always great to have so many options when it comes to landscaping and this time we have the New England trees by Little Branch, which are seasonal by the touch of a menu. They are currently available at the LTD Event, that runs until February 26th.

I am also showing some more items at the Home & Garden Expo. The planter of flowers are from Lunar Seasonal Designs and come with a menu giving you the option to change the colors of the planter, flowers, leafs and soil. There are so many textures for you to choose from making it a great deal. I’m showing another patio table and chairs set by beYou. This time its in a square version and I really like the feature of being able to open and close the umbrella. The deck set on the side is by M.Law, which comes ready to just place on a spot on your land… that is what I call convenience!
