I started out in pink. After all pink is my signature color. Shelby and I have that in common. But then I realized I had cute purple skates. Continue reading

Tree Trimming
My Christmas tree from LAQ Decor was a great find, Sasy recommended it when I was casting about for something new. I haven’t been feeling well so comfy clothes from Somnia were perfect for my rainy night in.
Feeling crummy and wanting to do all the things is frustrating. Add to that gloomy weather, and a general malaise and decorating my tree was the most cheery thing I could think of to do. Continue reading
I Need A Ding Dang Chair
I have made the Arcade Yard Sale rounds and I have to say, I’ve very nearly got everything I want. I’m not THAT needy, I don’t have to have them ALL of anything, and there are some rares that elude me. I won’t pay much more than pull price though – so you see, it’s tough for me to complete a set because so many people jack up the prices so high.
For instance, the chair for the amazing Apple Fall set. Continue reading
Some Snaps from the Home Tour – WEEKEND ONE
I was cleaning out my SL purse and realized I had some snaps in there that I wanted to share from weekend one of the SL HOLIDAY HOME TOUR. If you are interested in taking the tour on one of the upcoming weekends (I think there are two more) contact Tymmerie Thorne in SL or on plurk and she’ll get you the NC of Slurls!
The snaps I managed to take were at my friend Darkley Aeon’s house. You might know Darkley from Guerilla Avatar. Where she blogs flawlessly with a great sense of style and consistently great quality images. If you haven’t checked out her blog before you SHOULD.
So, let’s look at her stuff.
Darkley is living back in my old neighborhood in the Government Housing. She’s prim limited but has made some great choices. She created a frosty winter living room look with hints of ice blue – looks like a lot of it is from Bazar which makes GREAT low land impact furniture.
It’s an elegant room but with a great wintry look. Continue reading
The Holiday Home Tour – I’ll Start With Me!
I spent the better part of a week hunting the new and the awesome to decorate my house for this Christmas season. I have to admit I’m a little sad that the Arcade didn’t open in time for me to add some of the lovely things I’ve seen that are coming but eh, I’ll get them in what- 3 weeks when you can get in? 🙂 Oh who am I kidding? I’ll totally get them at yardsales – tomorrow.
I am so excited about the holiday home tour. My mother and I used to always go to holiday home tours when I lived near her, it was a glimpse at a house I’d never have – kind of like day dreaming a little fantasy – and sharing it with your mom. But in SL we can all have whatever kind of house we want. I love to see how people express their holiday joy when they decorate. I hope you enjoy mine.
The living room is always the room I work on first as I consider it the room for entertaining and socializing. Plus it’s what you see first when you walk in the room.
Trompe Loeil has a really comfy holiday sofa and I combined it with some chairs from What Next, a pillow basket and coffee table from earlier releases of Trompe Loeil as well. Continue reading
So,Your Dinner Is Ready!
I had to do some last minute shopping at MY ATTIC before it closes, as well as Shoetopia, for the perfect hostess look for my Thanksgiving meal. I also cooked a turkey and made a huge meal, so I hope you come over and eat.
I’ll never finish this giant bird alone! Continue reading
Thanksgiving Prep Is IN EFFECT!
Oh my GOSH you guys the Thanksgiving holiday is almost here! I’ve got so much to cook and get ready because I hope to have some guests at my new bigger house this year! It’s a lot for one girl to do, but I know I can be ready before tomorrow.
Lacuna released two tone turtlenecks that are perfect for a cute look but casual comfort. I had made an early run to Casa de Shai for her new polka dotted jeans release and just happened to pick them up in a chocolate color to coordinate – PERFECT!
My cat leaves hair everywhere, I should hire a maid because vacuuming is so tiring. And now I have such a bigger space to vacuum. Continue reading
Shoetopia Is Still Going – And Look What You Can Get!
There is such a range at Shoetopia that if your avatar wears shoes of any sort, it’s likely you can pick up something that fits your style and look. First of all, I’m going to show you how Jackal of Lassitude and Ennui can rock a range of awesome from stiletto sandals for your SLink feet (above) to gorgeous boots for role play or less mainstream fashion – for your REGULAR feet! I kinda love these boots a lot.
Finlandia
I was reminded today why I love to add different kinds of SL photographers to my FLICKR contacts when I saw this amazing sim and couldn’t resist heading over to get some pictures.
Called Finlandia, the Northern Lights play with your senses and you don’t know where to look there is so much gorgeous scenery all around you. Continue reading
Baby, It’s Cold Outside – for MY ATTIC
It might have been an obligatory blog post title as temps drop, but no, it’s the theme this month for MY ATTIC where a host of your favorite and maybe new to you designers have created a great round of new releases – themed, you guessed it – Baby, It’s Cold Outside.
My release for the event is a set of poses I made that I needed for blogging coats – coats can be cumbersome, but of course they work with other things too. I thought the recent release of a coat with optional dress under it from ColdLogic made a perfect choice. And look I didn’t even wear pink. Continue reading
