Kaboom!

Oh, yeah, you need a little Kaboom! in your life. These neon signs from [ keke ] for The Forest are flashy and fun. They are just the thing you need for your game room, club or…bedroom 😉

Also worthy of a superhero-type mention is my top from *Just BECAUSE*, available at the September round of Mesh Body Addicts. A simple bustier is made extra special by the studs, which are HUD-driven to change colours. It’s a perfect staple for your wardrobe, easily going from casual to dressy.

My footwear and stockings are both from fri.day, with the shoes found at ShoeBox and the stockings at Shiny Shabby. Do hurry to grab the stockings; Shiny Shabby closes on September 15.

A final word about my pose. I bought the shorts I am wearing (along with a sweet fuzzy top, not shown in this photo) and “wore” the box (actually a HUD) to open it. As I was sorting through the folder I received, I noticed I was floating. I love clever presentation boxes and //Ascend// lives up to their name with this adorable animation. It loops through several poses and I was so enchanted I decided to use the animation in my photo.

Lots of goodies here, folks. Lots of POW! BANG! KABOOM!

Miss Isabelle Waits For A Dance

1 Isabelle sm

Calmly she taps her toe to the soft jazz, waiting to be asked to dance. The tinkle of ice cubes in glasses, the quiet murmur of hushed voices of the dancers fill her head. She is not uncomfortable; just a bit self-conscious. “Soon,” she thinks, “soon.”

Isabelle is the latest creation from *Just BECAUSE*, available now at Uber. Get it before her dance card is full.

New Kid In Town

1 New Kid In Town sm

I have been a fan of Annie Melson’s for a long time. I dug deep into the depths of my inventory a few weeks ago and found an outfit from *Just BECAUSE* dating back to 2011. That’s about 294 years in Second Life time! So I was especially excited and honoured to have been selected to blog for this well-established and talented designer.

The top I am wearing is the first release I am blogging as an official *JB* blogger. Like a lot of her casual wear, on first glance it is just a simple tank. However, if you look at the details, such as the way it rides up around the hips and the sweet little drawstring on the side you can begin to understand why this brand has enjoyed such enduring success.

I may be the new kid in town, but I’ve been around the block a time or two and I know great quality when I slip it over my head.
