https://Sure you're ready for this?

Well, SL life and blogging goes on… My blog is up and working, with a few bugs to figure out (if I can, WP and web designing/managing is definitely outside of my wheelhouse); my beach lot — which I had set up and maintained basically for blogging beachy stuff, but rarely used) — is emptied and up for sale.  Found some abandoned land I like for Thea’s new home (I’m giving her my tier allowance so she can have a bigger place for HER fantasy blogging/SL life)… and of course there’s always SL date night and dancing, dancing, dancing!!! Ready to trip the light fantastic????  Whatever you choose to do, enjoy!!! Smiles, and poofs…

  • Dress:  ALTER – Tokio Mini Dress.  WOW, did I fall big time for this dress!  The look, the styling of it, is a combination of modern, classical grecian, elegance & sexiness.  I, of course, went with one of the animal prints, which are subtly sophisticated.  (So many adjectives, lol, can you tell how much I love this look lol?)  Sized for Reborn+Waifu, Legacy+Perky, & Lara+LaraX, Tokio is available in 8 single colors or as a fatpack with a 20-color HUD. She is featured at the current round of Designer Showcase, open Oct 5th – 20th.  Demo available.

There you are! NOW my day is better!

https://There you are! My day just got better!

Sometimes all it takes is a few minutes with that special someone to make the day, if not the whole world, seem better!  And I like to think that it works the other way as well, especially when I see his eyes light up as he looks me over, knowing that I dressed just for him!  If only we had more time together, but I’m happy for what I can get!!! Enjoy!

As the seasons slowly change…

https://That inbetween time, summer to fall

Well, i might be jumping the gun a bit, but then again, maybe not so much!  The calendar may be saying it’s still summer, but it’s definitely starting to feel more fall-like.   During summer in FL, you feel like you’re melting out in the sun doing any kind of activity.  Yesterday, I actually had to wear a light jacket both in the early morning and at dog-walking time in the early evening… and THAT’s the biggest indicator that fall is starting to arrive.  SL stores and sales are brimming with pumpkins and sunflowers (probably featured in my next shot lol!) and even Halloween items (though that’s pushing it a bit far IMHO).  All those lovely photogenic sims are starting to shift as well… me, I’m hoping to jump to a new island before I change mine over lol!  But now it’s time for all that weekend shopping… have fun!

  • Outfit:  I.M. Collection –Summertime Dress Pack w/ Heeled Slides.  Lovely dress with a sweetheart neckline, an asymmetric hem, & a solid color but horizontal-ribbed bodice with a print skirt.  Stylishly easy wearing, she is sized for Reborn, Legacy, & LaraX, & is available in 8 single textures or as a fatpack.  The slides — which are sold separately — include a HUD with 24 color options for both the slides themselves + 24 for the bow accent.  (See the ad below.) She is EXCLUSIVELY AVAILABLE at the current round of Designer Showcase, open through Sept 5th – 20th.  Demo available.

Goodbye to Summer!

https://Goodbye to Summer!

The calendar may not agree that summer is officially over (that day is Sept 22nd), but for most people, Labor Day is the unofficial end.  Even here in central FL, temps are down and a light sweatshirt is needed after dark (though I’m sure it won’t last lol).  IRL stores are already flaunting Halloween and even Thanksgiving paraphernalia (which I think is pushing it a bit), and here on the grid, fall fashions and that gorgeous autumn scenery is rapidly taking over.  I’m already pondering how I’ll redo my land for autumn and when I’ll swap out my tanned summer skin… but for this moment, I’m still enjoying the brilliant sun, deep blue skies, and sexy summer wear! Happy shopping!

  • Outfit:  SUN Fashion – Ivana Top & Skirt.  This little set (with the top & skirt sold separately) is just so cute & flirtatious… IMHO the perfect way to bid farewell to summer.  The keyhole sleeveless crop top is a beautiful summer knit available in 6 single colors or as a Megapack; the short ruffled skirt is available in 3 versions of black or white (no belt, gold belt, silver belt) or as a megapack of each.  (See the ads below.)

How long do you think I’ll wait?

https://How long do you think I'll wait?

Well, as you can see, my last post wasn’t my LAST pre-vacation post.  In fact, neither is this one… It’s a lot harder than you’d think (than I thought!!!) to not post while getting ready for an almost month-long multi-stop vacation.  Besides, how can I resist showing off a look like this!!!! I don’t think I’ll be waiting by myself for long… grins… Happy shopping!

La Dolce Vita

https://La Dolce Vita

Sometimes it’s the little things that make life sweet, that little highlight that makes you just feel how good everything can be.  For me, it often revolves around food (which is both the good news AND the bad news)…  I always felt that ice cream should be its own food group, at the very top of the pyramid.  I’m a total addict for that creamy concoction in all its varieties.  If things are going well, it’s that extraspecial little spark… when things are going the other way, it makes me feel better (at least temporarily)… and when the sun is shining but it’s not TOO hot, my hair blowing in the wind, well, that’s definitely la dolce vita!

  • Outfit:  Mahogany Store – Kimber Set.  A perfect outfit for Summer ’25, Kimber is an adorable little sleeveless top knotted above the waist, over a pair of short shorts.  She includes a HUD with 7 options for the top, & 7 different options for the shorts (see the Ad below which shows all the HUD choices).  Sized for Reborn+Waifus, Legacy, GenX Classic & Curvy, LaraX+PetiteX, Kupra & Natural, & Star bodies, Kimber is at the current round of Designer Showcase, open July 5th – 20th.  Demo available.

When You’re Gone…

https://When You're Gone...

Not much to say today… it’s Monday, it’s hot, REALLY hot, my legs hurt, and I’m feeling more than a bit lonely… yes, this too shall pass (to quote my mother), but for right now, the days are feeling like years, and there are moments when I need to remind myself to breathe…

Back from the Blake Sea

https://Back from the Blake Sea

Summertime!  Sun and sand and boating and so much more!  I no longer get to boat regularly IRL, but I can make up for that somewhat here on the grid.  Sure, it’s not the same thing, but sometimes those memories trigger so strongly that I can really feel that cool wind in my hair and the swell of the waves as we just drop anchor somewhere and relax… If you haven’t boated on the Blake Sea, I strongly urge you to give it a try!  See you on the water!

Mornings are rough for night owls

https://Mornings are rough for night owls

I’ve never been a morning person, I’m a night owl through and through.  Most people I know go to bed around 10 or 11P… me, since I no longer have to catch that early commuter train, I’m usually up to 1A or 2A.  Many days I get to wake up when I wake up, no alarms, no pressing necessities.  (Early golf dates are one of the few exceptions lol!)  But however long I sleep, I’m still a bit cranky upon waking.  I need that morning coffee tp humanize myself so that I can actually face life head-on and deal with whatever (and whomever!) comes my way… sighs, mmmm coffee…

  • Outfit:   {Le’La} – Rasine Outfit.  I do love an oh-so-casual but oh-so-sexy outfit, just like this one! Off-the shoulders, partially unbuttoned, open-lace blouse in the dreamiest satin with wide cuffs, collar & trim, an equally stunning satin-look bra, with the cutest little denim shorts.  (Matching over-the-knee boots are also included for going out in style, but not worn. See the ad below.) Includes a 20-texture HUD to color the blouse, buttons, denim shorts, & boots separately, plus 20 separate BOM bras, so you can mix ‘n’ match as you want.  Sized for Reborn+Waifus, Legacy+Perky, Maitreya+Maitreya Petite+LaraX+LaraXPetite, GenX Classic+Curvy, Erika & Kupra, Rasine is featured at the current round of Designer Showcase, open June 5th – 20th.  Demo available.

Summer breeze

https://Summer Breeze

Is there anything better than that refreshing breeze by the water in summer?  No matter how hot it is outside (and down here in FL, it’s already hot much of the time), that ocean breeze can have just enough of chill to make you scramble for a sweatshirt or — as here in my pic — a shrug, just to keep your arms warm.  Sighs, oh to be by the ocean, rather than ensconced in an air-conditioned house, looking at all that beauty and heat outside lol… oh well, that’s what internet shopping is for!!!  Enjoy!

  • Outfit:  I.M. Collection –AnnaLee Set.  This is that super-comfy and oh-so-stylish summer outfit that is perfect by the water since it includes a bra-like tank, a shrug to help with those cool breezes, an adorable little skirt with a wide elastic band at the waist & hanging drawstrings at the sides, plus matching heels.  Sized for Reborn, Legacy+Perky, & LaraX, AnnaLee comes in your choice of 12 color/patterns or as a fatpack (I’m wearing Set 10; see the ad below to see just two of the other options). She is EXCLUSIVELY AVAILABLE at the current round of Designer Showcase, open through June 20th.  Demo available (just click on the pic, menu, get demo).
