Exploring SL

    Little Tasta, Alirium

    Little Tasta

    Alirium is a gorgeous place, it was worth the dozens of crashes I suffered to snap this photograph. I really wanted to have shadows enabled for this picture but SL was just not cooperating with me.

    I saw this gorgeous Jungle Blossoms outfit from Little Tasta on Elle’s blog and I really wanted it for myself. This may be geared towards Gorean fashion but I think that anyone can wear this, for all types of outdoorsy looks… Um.. Cute jungle girl? Island style? Natural and environmentally friendly bikini? There’s so much potential here. I tried on a few other outfits from Litte Tasta and I really dig this shop.

    What I’m Wearing:

    Exile – Kylie (Champagne)
    Little Tasta – Jungle Blossoms Green

    Welcome to Innsmouth!

    I wanted a rural setting for my photos today and landed at the Innsmouth sim, which is a creepy New England town. I skimmed the note card, there was some info about a plague wiping out most of the towns people and that it’s based on a novel and you’re suppose to feel creepy (and lonely) here.

    Aoharu, ANEXX

    The first thing I noticed about this sim is that everything was just a little bit crooked.

    Aoharu, ANEXX

    I found a gas station, of course nobody was inside but I did notice a tip jar. There’s actually quite a few tip jars around this sim, I guess this is how they plan on paying for tier (since I didn’t notice any shops).

    Aoharu, ANEXX

    Aoharu, ANEXX

    Look how creepy this playground is!!!!!

    Aoharu, ANEXX

    Machang Pichot is back! A new Aoharu and ANEXX release is always exciting because Machang does such good work and there’s always tons of colors (especially Pink) to choose from. I adore the sculpted work, textures on these delicious new Fringe Western Boots that includes 2.0 versions.

    What I’m Wearing:

    Truth – Marnie (Mirage)
    AOHARU – DungareeLongShirt(White)
    MIEL – CUE Necklace
    ANEXX – FringeWesternBoots (White)

    Let them eat steampunk Cake!

    FRANCE3D Futuna

    I visited the Steampunk Village at the City of Nemo on FRANCE3D Futuna sim. This place is gorgeous!! I originally wore a different dress before I tp’d here, but anything with the word France in it automatically reminds me of Marie Antoinette, and so I changed into my Nicky Ree Le Fleur Baroque gown.

    Caroline's Jewelry

    To complement my gown, I am the Carlotta Jewelry Set from Caroline’s Jewelry.

    I adore Caroline’s for scripting all her jewerly sets with a Bright on/Bright off script since I absolutely *hate* full bright items. I was so happy that I could turn it off for my in-world snapshots.

    The Carlotta Jewelry Set is available in Onyx, Diamond, and Variety gemstones.

    This set will be available at the Etheria Fashion Show & Event on June 13th at 3PM SLT.

    Caroline's Jewelry

    What I’m Wearing:

    Truth – Sienna 2 (Swedish)
    LeLutka – Lola (Light) Makeup5 (L Brows)
    LeLutka – Lola (Lipstick) Pale
    Nicky Ree – Le FleurBaroque Gown (Silver Rose)

    Surf Couture on the farm

    Surf Couture

    Surf Couture – Coastal Tank | Surf Couture – Summer of Stripes Skirt

    Surf Couture released a line of new Summer clothes and it comes in so many different colors ranging from brights to muted tones. I love sculpted pieces when used cleverly to enhance the look and style. The Coastal Tank and Hermana Tank can be mixed-and-matched with either the Summer of Stripes Skirt or the Cafe Shorts. So cute!

    Surf Couture

    Surf Couture – Hermana Tank Ruffles | Surf Couture – Cafe Shorts

    I am inspired by the colors of these items to go visit a country themed sim. I saw Torley Linden post a picture of the Tuneiras West Farm at Embay and it was simply stunning! I found all the animals and posed with them!

    Surf Couture

    This last picture doesn’t show the clothes too clearly (unless you want to stare at my butt), but I wanted to post it because it amuses me that I was posing amongst sheeps 😛

    All three hairstyles worn in this post is from Truth Hair, of course! They are Nicola, Peyton, and BoHo in Cocoa color.

    What I’m Wearing:

    Truth – Nicola (Cocoa)
    Laqroki – Pearl – 02 [Fair] Glow Skin
    blowpop – Cassie (White Triangle Bra)
    Surf Couture – Coastal Tank
    Surf Couture – Summer of Stripes Skirt

    Nardcotix MANA Blogger Challenge

    Laridian

    Hi everyone! I am so excited to be a part of the Nardcotix MANA Blogger Challenge. I’ve always loved Nardcotix pumps so when I received an invitation to join the challenge, of course I accepted!

    Nardcotix

    Nardcotix – Breezie Stilettos

    I’m so happy that these new MANA shoes have realistic sculpted feet. Nardya began making toe-shoes because she loves a challenge. And we all benefit from her hard work, cos these are truly stunning.

    Nardcotix

    A MANA Shoe HUD is included to easily customize skin tone, nail polish and resize. This HUD also includes extra features I have not seen with any other shoes in SL: Glow and Shiny. I don’t find Glow or Shiny useful if you are going for a ‘realistic’ look but for Sci-Fi or Fantasy avatars? This makes perfect sense.

    For more information and a link to the challenge questions go to:  http://nardcotixsl.wordpress.com

    You know you want to do this because it’s SO EASY! The first 3 entries with all the trivia questions correct gets to pick a MANA shoe pack of their choice!!

    Laridian

    To show off these gorgeous new Breezie Stilettos, I went to the Ode sim to take pictures in the gorgeous flower field. This sim allows rezzing, so I took my gorgeous Laridian Rose Swing with me. The swing has built-in poses and is scripted to have a swinging motion that you can turn on and off with one easy click.

    For ONE WEEK only, the new Laridian Rose Swing is on sale for $50L, you can purchase it from XStreetSL. The regular price is $125L (which is still a deal for this great pose prop).

    Laridian

    Aw, this is adorable!!

    What I’m Wearing:

    Exile – Clara (Arctic)
    LeLutka – Lola (Light) makeup8 (L Brows)
    LeLutka – Lola (Lipstick) Pure Gloss
    Donna Flora – JOIO jewlery set
    PACADI – Alis Body (suit)
    Nardcotix – MANA Breezie Stilettos
    &
    Pose Prop: Laridian – Rose Swing (Princess)

    Nardcotix

    Visit the ODE sim, it’s so beautiful.

    Dernier Cri hair

    Dernier Cri

    I went to Dernier Cri for the new hairstyles, and normally I grab the hair and leave but today I caught a glimpse of some gorgeous palm trees outside so I had to go look. You guys know how much I love palm trees!!! The entire Dernier Cri sim had transformed into some spectacular jungle and she has a hippo and a giraffe!! It’s gorgeous. I normally wouldn’t go exploring on a hair sim, but this sim was worth exploring. Tons of great photo opportunities here!

    Dernier Cri

    Dernier Cri

    Dernier Cri

    There were four new hairstyles but I settled on this cute one called Ann. It comes with 3 bangs versions and all 10 colors funky colors (I bought the Rainbow Shades pack).

    Dernier Cri

    This is the most covered up I’ve been in awhile! I’m wearing new long pants from LeLutka and a cute sculpted top from couverture. I figured this was a nice “jungle” look and it pairs well with this adorable  blue hair color.

    The skin is a beta skin from Pink Fuel, but knowing Mochi Milena, she will change it 10000x more times before it’s released so just enjoy the cuteness 🙂 I don’t have any more info on it.

    What I’m Wearing:

    Dernier Cri – Ann (Rainbow Shades) 10 shades
    Pink Fuel – Elly (unreleased)
    couverture – The Stop Tee (White)
    LeLutka – Chaldea Pants (Spring)
    Pixel Mode – Baby T’s Plain (Black)

    Cotton Hollow Farm

    Cotton Hollow

    Hi guys! We’re taking a field trip today, out of my skybox and heading to Cotton Hollow Farm! BabyHoney Bailey’s latest project is cute as can be, and houses her new collection of farm accessories.

    I’ve pretty much escaped the chickens, turtles, bunnies craze without ever getting one cos I really don’t like a product that’s designed to give you enjoyment by costing you more money!! This farm thing though? I could dig this. Right now they don’t seem to be scripted to do anything, which is perfect. I just want to buy plants, rez them everywhere, and take cute photos.

    Cotton Hollow

    Psst.. don’t tell Bho I’m stealing one of her tomato plants!

    Cotton Hollow

    But if you’re into bunnies, there’s a huge bunny farm here. I’ve never seen so many in my slife. I’ve only really seen one bunny actually, so this was kind of cool and terrifying cos there was hover text everywhere.

    Cotton Hollow

    Visit Cotton Hollow Farm Flagship!

    What I’m Wearing:

    LeLutka – Lola (Sunkissed) Base (L Brows)
    LeLutka – Lola (Lipstick) Nature Matte
    Kookie – Chingy (Blonde) Sunshine Blonde
    Djinn & Tonic – Boyscout Cutoffs
    Djinn & Tonic – Spring Tank
    Surf Couture – Shoelace Sandals (White)

  • Juicy De Costa

    Juicy De Costa

    Juicy De Costa is now open!!!! This sim replaced the Juicy Del Mar sim (which has now been sold & renamed). I’m so glad Khea Karas is an amazing (and fast) builder, and I’m completely grateful for all her hard work and fantastic ideas for the sim.

    Juicy De Costa = Juicy of the Coast in Spanish

    There are still a couple of shop spaces available, so if you’re interested, come and visit us!
