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.

The Importance of Sun Protection

1 JFL bucket hat at Cosmo

Living in Australia, I understand the importance of protecting my skin from the sun. And even if I’ve slathered on SPF 30 sunscreen, a hat just makes sense. Not to mention, it’s cute on me 😉

Yes, it’s a men’s hat, but with a resizer and non-rigged mesh, I can ensure my skin stays soft and burn-free – without it falling down over my ears.

Grab your JfL bucket hat exclusively at the Cosmopolitan Sales Room through the 15th.

Black & Red

1 Cosmo LG K Collection Come & Get it Dress2_004J

While I wear a lot of black in real life, I rarely wear it in Second Life. Oh, maybe a pair of black pants or leggings, but I usually add a colourful top or dress of some sort. I just really love being able to show my plumage in SL!

But there is just something so very sophisticated and classy about teaming black and red. It’s daring and sexy. And it can be worn in every season.

Whether you’re going more sublime, as in the top picture or more bold, as in the second, you can never go wrong with the combination of black and red.
