Make Mine a Bliensen With a Side of MaiTai

According to ABOUT.COM MaiTai translates into OUT OF THIS WORLD in Tahitian.  It’s a rum drink and one of the most delicious treats to make you feel like you’re having a real grown up cocktail. It contains two kinds of rum for god’s sake.

Cocktails like that were made back when men were men and women were ladies or dames. Bliensen + MaiTai for Hair Fair 2013 has served up fantastic vintage looks that are elegant and true to the period they’re representing.

And take note ladies, she’s got an AWESOME BLONDE! Platinum is the tone I’m wearing and it’s appropriate for ladies and dames alike. Continue reading

!OHMai It’s Bedtime

I took a walk around the LOVE DONNA FLORA sim last night and stumbled into Anya Ohmai’s booth where she is selling these adorable bunnies to snuggle.

It’s so cute, you can change the buttons, the flag or the color of the whole bunny. And it’s perfect for night time snugglies. Continue reading

Prepping for Love Donna Flora and Sunday Dinner

I started out my Sunday perfectly, in a beautiful vineyard with a winding country road. Every few meters a cart or tent awaits a creator to come fill it with it’s goodies for the upcoming LOVE DONNA FLORA event.

I drug my heavy boxes and pose stand down the path until I got to my tent and got set up before the morning sun made me too hot.

I did end up stopping in the courtyard at the center of the build at the event, just to enjoy the scenery and have a cool drink.  It was about that time that I realized, I hadn’t SHOPPED ALL DAY!

I decided to rectify this immediately. Continue reading

Beach Blanket Bingo Is For Ugly People

To celebrate the opening of THE GARDEN this round, there was a beach party over at THE NEST. It just so happened that I had a new bikini and nowhere to be for at least an hour, so I failed to touch up my roots yet ran over anyway to frolic in the sand with everyone. Continue reading

Vacation Clothes

Growing up we had a family tradition of vacationing at the Gulf of Mexico. All people from Indiana do so, from what I can tell. Once we had settled into our hotel, my mother and I traditionally went to a ladies “beach store” and we each got one nice sundress, matching flip flops and sometimes a necklace.

Shell necklace obviously. Continue reading

My Linden Place In The Sun

I found this flamingo in my inventory and could not resist not even a little bit. It’s a perfect way to spend my beautiful day in the government housing I actually call home.  Further proof that a life of luxury and leisure is not impossible in the linden ghetto, I suppose. Continue reading

It Was A Dark And Stormy Night – In Paris

A Dark And Stormy Night - In Paris

If you aren’t a 20 something and you hearken back to your youth, you’ll remember that back in the day in the Peanuts cartoons, Snoopy was often working on his book. His book always begins “It was a dark and stormy night…”. What you might not know is that there is an entire, long running fiction contest centered around this premise – beginning terrible fiction with the phrase IT WAS A DARK AND STORMY NIGHT.

I actually once purchased a compendium of the Bulwer -Lytton contest entries and laughed for days reading it. It’s one of the seminal phrases in American faux literature, and when I rezzed Barnesworth Anubis new skybox for Collabor88 – my first thought was OMG IT WAS A DARK AND STORMY NIGHT. Continue reading
