Barbie Does Donuts

Posted on by cejalaval

http://Barbie Does Donuts

Well, if my last post was a little bit retro, now I’ve fallen all the way down the retro rabbit hole!  And in “those” days, being a girl meant going pink, and since I rarely do anything halfway, I went for it full force!!!  Pink EVERYWHERE!!!!  But sadly, this girl’s no Betty Homemaker… I may be in the kitchen, but my donuts aren’t homemade, they’re store-bought, and just delish. Of course, if I keep doing the donuts, I won’t fit into my barbie clothes quite so well, but in the meantime, I’m having a pink lady (gotta stay in theme lol!)… what can I offer you? 😉

If you’re not a Game of Thrones fan, then you may not get the title of this post, but if you are, then you understand… completely!  I don’t know about you, but while I’m so excited that the next season of Game of Thrones will start soon — April 14th — I’m also kind of sad, because it’s the final season.  That’s the problem with a wonderful miniseries, or a wonderful book… at some point, they come to an end, and you are left to imagine what comes next.  The good news? I have a WONDERFUL imagination… hopefully you do too! 😉

A Breath of Fresh Air

Posted on by cejalaval

http://A Breath of Fresh Air

I love Second Life, which is a good thing, because I certainly spend enough time both inworld and in RL working on things related to it.  But sometimes it seems that certain things are just repeated, done over and over.  And yet, when something different comes along, it’s not always immediately welcome.  These pants are a perfect example… Because it seems like almost every pair of pants I own here in Second Life is lo-cut — sometimes to the extreme! — my initial reaction when I saw these high-waisted pants was admittedly one of hesitation.  But thankfully, I decided to try them on, and all I have to say is boy, was I ever wrong!  WOW!!! If I may so myself, these pants make my curves — especially my butt (which is already enhanced with Tonic’s booty control) — look absolutely AMAZING!!!  And although I’m sure they look equally good with a full-length top, I simply love the combination of the high waist with a short cropped sweater like this wonderful little off-shoulder find… What a refreshing difference!!!!  And yes, there’s been lots of exclamation points in this post lol… but I think it deserves every single one!  And to celebrate, even though it’s getting colder outside again after a 2-day reprieve, it’s definitely time to tiptoe through the SL tulips and welcome those initial signs of spring!!! 😉

  • Head: Tonic – Coco is the new bento head from Tonic that I’ve been blogging about for weeks.  I adore Coco because I finally have my slightly slanted eyes that I’ve wanted since day one, & being fully mod & Omega-ready I’ve been able to customize her to make her truly individual.  Available EXCLUSIVELY at the Skin Fair through March 24th where Coco is on sale for a special introductory price of 50% off.  If you haven’t picked up your demo yet to see what kind of unique look you can create for yourself, you really are missing out.
  • Pants:  MOZ Designs – High Waist Flair Hem Pants, with a fit & style that is absolutely unbelievable. Whatever shape you’ve got, it looks incredible in these pants! Recently updated to include more mesh bodies, these pants are now Original Fitmesh for Maitreya, Slink, Belleza, Tonic, eBody & EVE, in this wonderful linen texture (this particular color has a subtle stripe in its weave, just gorgeous!). Available in a variety of single colors or a Superpack.
  • Top:  lovelysweet Boutique – Mia Sweater; this comfy-looking, subtly sexy off-shoulder crop sweater comes with a halter top that you can wear separately or in combination. Includes a 6-color HUD for the sweater, 5-colors for the halter. A WLTB Designer.
  • Skin:  7 Deadly s[K]ins – Cassidy, worn in Cashew Browless.  Based on LAQ, Cassidy is a brand-new stunner of an Omega skin.  She’s so stunning, all I’ve added are my freckles! Fatpacks of dark & light tones are available EXCLUSIVELY at eBento March 10th – 31st.  Demos & shape are also available.

http://A Dream Is A Wish Your Heart Makes

I love my curves. I’ll admit it took a long time to get them exactly where I want them, which I’ve achieved with my Tonic Curvy body and added Booty Control (still tweaking all the time when I wear my Slink body to try to achieve the same effect). So I’m really thrilled when I put on an outfit that doesn’t just look good on the skinny model types, it looks good on me too… and when it flaunts those curves and shows them off to their fullest without just applying directly to your skin? Well, then you have an outfit like this, an outfit that makes everything seem possible because you look so good, you feel amazing & are ready for your dreams to come true! 😉

  • Outfit: Allure Couture – Simi Bolero Jumpsuit in Green is a very deep shade of green with gold edging at the neckline & the ankles.  The jumpsuit itself has very simple, classic lines that somehow enhance your shape to its fullest, but to me, it’s the optional bolero that pushes this outfit over the edge. Subtly striped, its slightly padded shoulders & amazing neck shape are pure elegance… & frame both the included emerald choker & your face to perfection (see the closeup below).  Also includes the high heeled sandals shown, so no struggling over details! Sized for Tonic, Belleza F/V, Slink H/P, Maitreya, & Classic (S/M/L). Available for 50% OFF at TheEvent for March! 
  • Pergola: Tm Creation – “The Arbor” Pergola with flowers & decor seems to be blowing gently in the breeze, & is one of those beautifully simple & simply beautiful pieces that brings a touch of romance to any spot.  Includes couple & single animations (I adjusted one to be over by the pillar rather than in the middle), & is available in both PG & Adult versions. 100% original mesh, you can use as is or unlink all the pieces & use as you wish.  Available at The Trunk Show presented by Pale Girl Productions until March 18th.  (Ad below has additional details.)
  • Body: Tonic – Curvy Beauty + Booty Control
  • Hair:  Argrace – Kagura
  • Brows:  DS’Elles – EyeBrow Series 8
  • Eyes:  Avi-Glam (Marketplace Only) – Luminous Eyes, in Ivy
  • Makeup:  Izzie’s – Fall Eyeshadows
  • Nails: Encore – Shades of Green Nail Appliers
  • Jewelry:  Beloved Jewelry – Yellow Gold Links Set with Natural Emeralds, Earrings; Chop Zuey – Bel Aire Gold Women’s Wedding Band

Quiet Confidence

http://Quiet Confidence

The minute I saw this outfit, I knew I wanted to blog it. And the look came together so easily, it was like a dream… but the shoot!!! OMG, talk about a nightmare. I know it’s my own fault… I get an idea in my head, and sometimes I just can’t let it go. This outfit immediately spoke to me of competent young professional… that air of quiet confidence when you feel totally secure that you not only know your stuff cold but you look damn good doing it.  And yet I couldn’t find a pose I liked or a venue/backdrop that worked, and I searched EVERYWHERE. I got sidetracked and spent time doing a shoot as a schoolteacher in a classroom; I ended up with a really good shot, but it just wasn’t quite sitting right and I wasn’t happy. Then suddenly the PERFECT pose dropped in my inbox, and there I was, reinvigorated to go back on the hunt, widening the search to include a conference room.  Suddenly, Marketplace to the rescue! Personally, I’m thrilled with the result… it may not be exactly what I envisioned, but it captures the essence to perfection.  And to me, that’s what it’s all about.  The pose (as you’ll see below) is called “Cappucino?”, but really, no one should expect this girl to be getting anyone their coffee…  😉

  • Head: Tonic – SNEAK PREVIEW #2!  Coco the new bento head from Tonic is in pre-release until the March Skin Fair. She’s just a gorgeous head; I’m so in love with these slightly slanted eyes!!!!!  The demo will soon be available at the store for you to start tweaking & seeing for yourself what your new look could be.
  • Outfit:  !!smesh – Anne, a little bit proper, a little bit naughty with that high leg slit, & a whole lot stylish, all rolled into one. Includes the very stylish high heels as well (no plain old pumps for THIS look!)… Sized for Tonic, Slink P/H, Belleza V/F, Maitreya, Ocacin & Voluptuous.  At the Designer Circle 04/19 Feb 17th – March 2nd for just 130L. Demo available.
  • Skin:  7 Deadly s[K]ins – Nikita, with her lovely smattering of freckles, worn in my favorite tone of Butter Browless.  Fatpacks of 7 dark or light tones, on sale for just 250L at the Designer Circle 04/19 Feb 17th – March 2nd. Shape & demos also available.
  • Pose:  Captured Waters, New Poses by ALEXA – Cappucino? A We Love to Blog designer.

Easy like Sunday Morning

http://Easy like Sunday Morning

I don’t work full-time anymore, so you’d think that weekends would be just another day. But old habits are persistent, and weekend mornings still feel special, and lazing around is not just allowed, it’s almost mandatory lol.  And I worked hard to show off a blend of products here, some of which is so brand new it’s not even available yet! But it all feels so natural and so comfy… just perfect for Saturday and Sunday mornings and for every day, don’t you think? 😉

  • Head: Tonic – SNEAK PREVIEW!  Coco, another brand-new bento head from Tonic is in pre-release. Coco has stolen my heart… she has a new nose & mouth structure, but for me, the absolute killer are the slightly tilted eyes… I’m always trying to tilt my eyes by moving the outer corners up & the inner corners down; with Coco, she already has that slightly exotic angle built in which made my tweaking so much easier to achieve the look I’ve been striving for since I bought my very first mesh head… I’M SO THRILLED!!!!!  Coco comes Omega-ready & is fully mod, so you can play & tweak to your heart’s content. She’ll be launched at the upcoming Skin Fair in March; demo will be available prior to that at the store. Watch this blog for details.
  • Top:  Graffitiwear – Whimsy Tanks Fatpack with a HUD of 18 100% original Graffitiwear textures (see below) is a perfect casual top with a ton of choices. The back (which obviously you can’t see here but you can in the ad below) is what I’ll call “open rips”… looks amazing!  Sized for Tonic, Belleza F/V, Maitreya, Slink P/H, Ocacin, & Classic. EXCLUSIVE 50% off – only 95L – at TheEvent for February! 
  • Pants:  MOZ Designs –   NEW! Leather Panel Leggings join the list of amazing MOZ leggings in terms of fit with totally unique styling! These leggings are available in knit & denim with decorative leather panels in a variety of colors; these are definite show-stoppers! Original Fitmesh for Maitreya, Slink, Belleza, Tonic, eBody & EVE.
  • Skin:  7 Deadly s[K]ins – Amina, an absolutely beautiful skin with gorgeous shading around the eyes that looks FABULOUS on Coco… I haven’t added a touch of makeup except for a bit of lip gloss (see below). I’m wearing Amina in Cashew Browless (one of the dark tones), but there are 14 tones to choose from, all with the no-brow option if, like me, you prefer to add your own brows for a different shape &/or color! 
  • Chair: Bloom! – Beanbag Vintage, comfy, looks great, loaded with couples & single animations, & only 7 prim… what else can you ask for? A We Love to Blog designer.
  • Body: Tonic – Curvy Beauty + Booty Control

Hearts and Flowers

Posted on by cejalaval

http://Hearts and Flowers

Valentine’s Day is one of those days I always have mixed feelings about. It’s wonderful when you’re in the throes of early romantic love (but then what isn’t, lol?); excruciating when your heart is broken or your soul is aching. The rest of the time — which is most of life — it can be alternately charming or annoying. As with most things here in Second Life, Valentine’s gets done to extremes… and that means there are some awesome finds out there… especially if you’re cool with hearts and flowers! I’ve included just a few in today’s post… may they make your heart smile just a bit… 😉

  • Dress:  FlowerDreams – Be My Valentine in Red; if you want to wow your Valentine, this lingerie is definitely one way to go!

Available in 6 colors which changes the straps, this little temptation is available EXCLUSIVELY at the February Fifty Shades of Red Swank Event.  A We Love to Blog designer.
  • Skin:  7 Deadly s[K]ins – Didi has a delightful innocent look that I loved for this; I chose to wear her in Dew browless without a drop of makeup, but there are 14 tones available for just 175L each, fatpacks of 7 light tones or dark tones 800L each, EXCLUSIVELY at Designer Showcase Feb 5th – 28th.  Didi shape & demos also available.

DJ Got Us Fallin in Love

http://DJ Got US Fallin in Love

Blogging is a strange thing. Some pictures can take hours and hours or even days, between putting together the look, the scene, the editing, the writing.  Nothing feels right, it’s all somehow out of sync. Others just seem to naturally fall into place with an image blossoming in your head almost like a piece of music. Thankfully these days most of my pix fall into the latter category, with this being a prime example. I’m wearing items from 4 different sponsors — one, Syndicate Sunday, for the very first time!! — and rarely have all the right notes sounded so clearly when coming from such disparate sources.  It’s kind of like falling in love… the magic starts happening and you need to just let it carry you where it will.  So let’s turn that volume up, and dance to the music!!!! 😉

  • Head: Tonic – SNEAK PREVIEW #3!!  Abbi, the brand-new bento head from Tonic, which will be launched at the February eBento, which opens on Feb 8th.  Demos are available in the store; I heartily recommend picking her up & playing since she’s fully mod & Omega-ready!

You Make Me Feel So Young

http://You Make Me Feel So Young

OK, I’ll admit it right here… I’m no spring chicken. After all, I’ve been here in Second Life for almost 12 years (geez, that makes me certifiably ancient, doesn’t it!), but still, there are times that I just feel incredibly young and playful. Unlike in real life, where my body may not be able to run and frolic as easily (or look as good doing it lol), here I can do whatever I want, for as long as I want, never ever get hurt, and look simply wonderful the entire time! And if I ever saw an outfit that made me feel young, this is it. Just something about it, made me feel totally young at heart… My suggestion? Go grab a demo and see for yourself!

  • Dress:  Jezzixa Cazalet for Prism Designs – Winona Dress is just one of those very short, flirty, fun, young things to wear.  Comes in a whole bevy of colors (6 options: this is Pink/Green); sized for Slink, Belleza & Maitreya. EXCLUSIVE at the Designer Circle 02/19 Jan 20th – Feb 2nd. Demo available.
  • Body:  Slink – Physique Mesh Body Original, Full Version including Hands (Dynamic) & Feet

  • Hair:  {Limerence} – Elena
  • Brows:  LAQ – Brows 1
  • Eyes:  IKON – Triumph
  • Skin:  7 Deadly s[K]ins – Nephlyn, worn in Butter Browless

My newest nook!

Posted on by cejalaval

http://My newest nook

Sometimes I just don’t know when to stop, and to say “no, I think I’m doing enough right now.” First off, I’m looking for a part-time job in Real Life.  That’s a lot of stress, a lot of anxiety, a lot of self-doubt.  Second, I’m now the Blogger Manager for Allure Couture, something I’m ultra thrilled about! Not only is it a fabulous line of formal and casual wear which I blog and wear all the time (the latter being the TRUE test), but the designer is my absolute best friend and I love her dearly!  (Our first blogger search for male and female bloggers is still open, so if you’re interested, the link to the app is in my FlickR stream!)  Third, for some strange reason, I applied to blog for a few new lines (why, why, why???) that for various reasons piqued my interest and that I felt I could handle with my schedule; so far, I’ve been accepted by one, rejected by another, and haven’t heard from the third. And fourth, and this is the one that is currently killing me, I decided to move. Those who’ve followed my blog for a while may remember that I moved to my recent lot less than a year ago, and while I loved it then, all the built-in levels kind of pissed me off when I winterized. Now that it’s time to de-winterize, I found myself a bit dismayed by the prospect. With tier due in 3 days, I decided to see what else was available in the estate group (I LOVE GlenXi Estates, which is where I currently live) and found the PERFECT lot… a teeny bit larger, about 100 more prims, for a smidgin more tier with more useable land and less levels… DONE!  So now I need to LANDSCAPE (which yes, is a passion of mine in SL). But did I stop? Of course not!!! I went one step further, and decided I needed a new house too, which means REDECORATING! And although I’m just starting, here is my first pic from my new property, with some pretty new things, like this awesome hanging chair and stool!  😉

  • Top:  MOZ Designs –  NEW! “Lilly” Tank & Tee is a combination tee & tank top. The tank is pretty standard but the tee! It’s just the cutest, the way it’s worn off-shoulder, wrapping around & tieing at the side.  Single packages & fatpacks for solid or graphic tees (the graphics are ADORABLE!!!), or a superpack of all. You can also choose to wear each piece separately for even more flexibility.  Original fitmesh for Tonic, Belleza, Maitreya, eBody, & Slink.
  • Skirt:  MOZ Designs –  “Flare” Skirt, is a short lo-hung little skirt that goes with everything & flaunts those curves! Solids, denims, & patterns also available,  Original fitmesh for Tonic, Belleza, Maitreya, eBody, Slink, & EVE.
  • Skin:  7 Deadly s[K]ins – Nuova is a very fresh-faced skin IMHO. Beautiful & dewy, she’s based on GENUS, but I’m wearing her on LAQ & I think she looks gorgeous!  Nuova is EXCLUSIVELY available at the Sense Event through Feb 8th, where you can choose from fatpacks of 7 dark or light tones (I’m wearing her in Cashew browless, which is one of the Dark tones); shape & demos are also available. 
  • Hanging Chair & Stool:  Bloom! – Boho Set Love, both pieces are filled with animations (the chair has both couple & single anims, while the stool has single anims only); the perfect addition for any home, inside or out, whether you choose to use separately or together! Also available with brighter, flowery pillows.
