I Tumble Out Of Bed and I Stumble To The Kitchen

Lisp Bazaar Mermaids and Sea Dogs Kitchen

One of the best things about moving into my houseboat has been redecorating and making the empty shell my own. I’ve been kitchen shopping but living on a boat, I find that space is a huge consideration and I just can’t throw in much of the furniture pieces I like because I don’t have space. BUT PRAISE SWEET LITTLE BABY JESUS Lisp Bazaar has the best kitchen on the planet AND it has a nautical theme, for sale at Collabor88. Continue reading

Night Swimming

Night Swimming2

It occurred to me recently that since I am no longer land locked on mainland, I should not only spend time looking at the water, but actually in the water since that was a huge part of my attraction for moving.

So last night I opened my deck doors and jumped into the lagoon for no other reason than I could. Continue reading

Gardening But Not At Night

I am still settling in to my new place, living in smaller quarters with the ocean as my yard is taking a little getting used but I admit, I kind of like it.

Trompe Loeil released a gorgeous couple of sets of patio furniture recently and now that I’m getting settled in to sorting out my living arrangements, I thought that this set fit exactly for my new deck. Continue reading

Nothing Shocking

Fashionista In A Lighthouse

Culture Shock opens today and I thought I would bring you something amazing and beautiful that is exactly the sort of extravagance every pixel girl needs. A dress that swooshes and twirls around you like the wind.

Gizza brings us Dance With The Wind for Culture Shock and my first thought was WHAT THE HELL and my second thought was oooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. Exactly like that. Continue reading

Culture Shock Without Borders

Unless you live under a rock, you know that Culture Shock is bearing down on you with the force of 1000 Fashionistas all clamoring to get in, to get the new, the exclusive and while they are at it, do a little good by donating to Medecins Sans Frontieres. That’s Doctors Without Borders to you non Francophiles.

As a Second Life community of shoppers, clubbers, gesturetards and so called fashionistas, we are a global community of privilege. Even the most broke ass of us seems to have a reliable high speed internet connection with which to connect to our pixel life and live out whatever our fantasy du jour is. (Mine is to be blonde and skinny. Please catch up.) Continue reading

1 + One Bad Pixel

If you missed the rumbling of the Earth over the weekend, a new mesh collaboration opened up and it’s sexy awesome, with lots of gorgeous pieces for girls who might like to show off their sexier sides from time to time. ONE BAD PIXEL is an unapologetic store run by alts (yay for being up front about it) of designers you know and love, and they’re even having a little contest to see if you can guess who they are. I loved the pieces I saw at the grand opening and I can’t wait to see more from these creators. Continue reading
