Surround me in your splendor

I spend more time exploring SL than I do RL, so I decided to take a weekend trip to Jemez in Albuquerque, New Mexico. It’s only about 90 minutes away. Why not? I’ve been told there’s beautiful spots with gorgeous waterfalls if one takes certain trails. We didn’t find one! However, I did find one in my SL jaunts. Lol, go figure!

This is why we can’t have nice things…

And there are no rules when you show up here
Bass beat rattling the chandelier
Feeling so Gatsby for that whole year
So why’d you have to rain on my parade?

This is why we can't have nice things

I’m shaking my head
I’m locking the gates
This is why we can’t have nice things, darling
Because you break them
I had to take them away
This is why we can’t have nice things, honey
Did you think I wouldn’t hear all the things you said about me?
This is why we can’t have nice things…

Glitter in the Sun

Ready to glitter? Always, you should say.  To help you out, Glitter has two new items out! I’m wearing Margot, which is available at Swank, while Sunshine is wearing Fleur that is the latest creation to hit the main store. Both are sexy summer hits.

If a barely-there top and short skirt is your go-to summer piece, head on down to Swank and check out Margot. Like gorgeous flower prints? Click here for Glitter’s main store and pick up Fleur. Each is available in a variety of colors so choose wisely by choosing them all.

“The Boulevard of Broken Dreams: I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies…”

So I’m reading clips from the first presidential debate, and it’s scary. Typically, I vote Democrat, but I am not opposed to voting outside of my selected party. Considering I’m not well versed in politics, I’m not trying to start a fight, but oh my gosh…if one was going strictly by that debate, America only has one reasonable choice, and that’s the scary part.

boulevard-of-broken-dreams

When I first heard of Donald Trump’s plans to run for president, I told my hubby we had to get ready to vote for either Hilary Clinton or Trump in the end. Seriously, lol, I thought there was a secret campaign in that there was no campaign. Instead, Trump would be a hot mess, and there was no other choice but to vote Clinton, but the government was in on it. I know social media is a mainstay, so I can appreciate candidates using it as a platform, but damn, can you imagine if Trump was president and one of his Twitter wars led to World War III? Okay, that probably wouldn’t happen lol, but who knows anymore. =:-O

One (1) More Day to go Around the World

Sascha’s Designs has an exclusive piece at Swank’s “Around the World” August round, and it is a symphony of brilliant colors and patterns.

Around the World

It actually has a shoulder decoration as well, but I opted to go strapless because I love the dainty ruffles around the bust.

One More Day

Now, since you only have one more day to go around the world, you better get hopping. Click here for your private jet.

“Please leave me stranded, it’s so romantic…”

Sorry hubby. I’m in love with San Guerlian, but don’t worry. It’s a platonic love. Chop Zuey Couture Jewelry is a beautiful addition to Designer Showcase’s August round, and Belle Roussel has a very special edition of the San Guerlian Cameo Set available just for you.

Hey.png

Do you feel the love now? The set includes earrings, bracelets, a brooch, and 5 mixed cameo, pearl, and gemstone choker and necklaces you can layer on for a multi-strand look or just wear each piece individually.

Hey 2.png

That’s a lot of jewelry for a special 50% off price  and the pearls, gems, metals, and Cameo are texture and color change. Ooh, it’s so romantic!
