Clearing Out My Attic

 My Attic & JfL Soft Silk Hat

Well, not exactly my attic, but I did have to clear out my closet to make room for all the gorgeous stuff I found at this round of My Attic @ The Loft. Well, I didn’t really clear out my closet, either. I just jammed more stuff in (act suprised here, ok???)

I was originally lured there by an item I didn’t blog (yet) – the lingerie by Baistice, after seeing it on Flickr. But then when I got there, I saw this luscious top from Emery. I could just feel the silk of this blouse against my skin as I tried it on. The textures are simply irresistible! And I finally had something to wear with my soft silk hat from JfL, which also has gorgeous textures.

Here is a close-up of this delicious blouse and hat. Who says a girl can’t wear a boy’s hat and not look incredibly feminine? Not me, that’s for sure.

Antipodean Spring

1 LG K Collection So What

After a few cooler days, spring is back. Sunny, breezy, blue skies, pollen. I headed back over to Two Moon Gardens to take a stroll. It’s mainly set up for autumn, but there are pockets of springtime and summer tucked here and there. I admit I felt a bit chilly in my shorts and tank top as I ventured through the gardens to find a sunny spot (hey, work with me here!) but once I started strolling down this colourful garden path, I immediately felt the warmth that we are experiencing in my real world.

And that’s the fun of Second Life – we can experience something similar to our real world, or find something that is totally foreign and even otherworldly.

And even more fun, I can go from a casual outdoor setting to dressing up for a night on the town within moments. I’m just waiting for my date to arrive – I look too hot to be let out on my own 😉

I’d Rather Face A Shark…

1 Damned Dolls JFL

While the northern hemisphere is heading toward fall, here in the antipodes we’re into spring and speeding rapidly towards summer. Yes, it’s that time of year we all dread most – not because of the heat, mosquitoes and risk of shark attack, but because we have to, yes…find the perfect bikini. Sighs. Too much hot chocolate and beef stew all winter makes this a dreadful chore! And yes, it even means a trip for waxing away the down we kept to stay warm all winter 😉

I do love mesh, but one item I’ve had trouble getting to fit properly is a bikini – and not because of those extra eclairs! Most mesh bikinis just don’t fit closely enough. Instead, all too often, I end up looking like I’m wearing a nappy instead of a cute bathing suit bottom. And if that isn’t the problem, then the alpha exposes more than my sweet cheeks, leaving me feeling hollow. But this little number from .:Damned Dolls:. fits like a seamless glove! Top it off with a 6-colour change hud, and this gal is set for the beach! It’s an added plus that my JfL bucket hat works to distract from any residual winter paleness.

1 Damned Dolls Back

I mean, seriously…check out that bum! Um…the bikini from the back, I mean 😉 Yes, I’d rather stare down a Great White than find a swimsuit that fits in RL, but in SL, I will proudly display this one while wrangling a friggin’ laser shark 😀

Hurry over to the Cosmopolitan Sales Room to snag this bikini by September 15th.
