Don’t let the sun go down on me

I’m so dramatic. Actually, I’m in a great mood! I don’t have many real life tattoos, okay I have four small tatts. The largest is one line of Latin between my shoulder blades. It’s been so long since I’ve seen it, so I can’t remember exactly how it is written, but it’s roughly translated into in darkness, there is light. 

Don't let the sun go down on me

That saying always cheers me up! Shopping cheers me up too. Designer Showcase‘s January round will be gone on the 26th, so if you haven’t been there yet, head on down!

Ladies who lunch and wear white after Labor Day

While the LBD is timeless, it can get a little boring, so I love to wear white after Labor Day. Again, I’ve always lived in dry and hot climates so I don’t have to worry about really cold weather. Although I think a snowy white coat would be gorgeous! Ah well, I’ll have to stick to my winter going out staple: the LWD.

It’s really over

Summer is my favorite season! True, it’s brutally hot in Nevada, but I still love the idea of summer barbeques, swimming, and pool parties. I’m gonna miss you summer! I suppose fall is technically here, but mind you, I’m still dealing with 90 degree + weather, so forgive my fashion snafu.

Goodbye Summer Sad Panda Face

Designer Showcase’s September round, has a little bit of this and a little bit of that, if you are still prone to summer wear, but understand the fall fashion season has hit. My post is my last ode to true summertime fun and fashion. Sniff.

“Maybe I’m the one who is the schizophrenic psycho”

I spend a lot of my real life time wondering what is wrong with people, but maybe it really is me.

Designer Showcase August Round

I woke up on the bad hair side of the bed today. I was craving French fries smothered in cheese. As I was starving, my first plan was to buy a few groceries or at the very least hit up McDonald’s.

I'm seeing you talk, but I can only think about French fries

Instead, I drove across town and bought…mosturizer.

Sharing is caring: Let’s see your selfies!

Are you up for a challenge?

No? Hey. I can’t believe you gave up that easy! :/ Come on…everyone loves a selfie right? As many of you know, it’s Second Life’s 11th birthday! While the celebration started on the 22nd, the party is still kicking until June 29th. Doc Gascoigne wants to see your faces amongst the birthday celebration! Now, taking the perfect selfie is not rocket science, but I always say go high! Camera angle high that is.

How to take a selfie

When you have your camera above your head, it slims the face. Or, perhaps my real life face is too round. :/ At any rate,  the angle works for me.

How to take the perfect selfie

Take up Doc’s challenge okay? This year, SL’s birthday theme is the future. How do you envision SL’s future? If you can’t picture it yourself, come to the celebration. So many beautiful builds and you can take the perfect selfie while you’re there! Share your SL11b selfies with SL11B’s official Flickr.

I snapped my selfie at one of the starting points, so click invite and celebrate SL’s b-day!  Have fun!

Running in heels

I have one rule when breaking in new shoes. I never break them in alone.  I call it female bonding. I made the mistake of breaking in new heels with my boyfriend. He was totally unsympathetic.  Since then, I grab my fellow shoe lover friend and we stamp, then hobble, together.  Actually, I may have another rule that I just thought of. I do not wear heels on the Las Vegas strip anymore. I almost died that night. Second Life heels are much kinder. I climb SL mountains in heels.

Breaking in New Shoes

I am a huge fan of sky-high wedges in real life and in Second Life.  LMD’s Kassie Wedges are available at this month’s Designer Showcase, and they come in other vibrant colors. They are super cute!

How to break in new shoes

Designer Showcase has quite a few slink compatible shoes this round. Also, ZOZ is there with gorgeous nail colors for  your Slink hands and feet. If you love your Slinks as much as I love mine, you’ll love Designer Showcase’s June round! Click here for your ride.

Happy Memorial Day!

Happy Memorial Day weekend! Well, the weekend is just about up, so happy Memorial Day! If you have tomorrow off, I envy you! However, you probably deserve it more than I do. 😉

Designer Showcase May 2014

By way, Designer Showcase‘s round ends early this month, so tomorrow is your last chance to find any deals. Artizana’s Aibrean in Coastful is such a cheerful outfit. The ruffle crop top is my favorite. I can only wear such tops in SL because my RL involves covering my belly. I can only suck in so long.

I accessorized with Lindy’s Chelsea wedges and Elemental’s Carinna’s Necklace and Earrings, which are also available at Designer Showcase. All deals 100L or less! Click here for a lift.

It’s not me, it’s you.

Have you ever dodged someone you don’t want to talk to? It’s relatively easy to mute someone in SL, but sometimes there is more than a WiFi (fleeting) connection and one develops a friendship type of relationship, so real life numbers and emails are exchanged…you know the drill. I haven’t spent much time inworld, and sometimes I do have the time, but I don’t have the desire to chat. My real friends know this and leave me alone with my nerdy blogging ways, but some, in particular, try and make me feel bad.

Don’t. Please? Lol. Okay, drama over! However, I really do mean it. That time has passed.

February Stars

While I can appreciate the day after Valentine’s day (discounted chocolate), I’ve never been a fan of February. It’s just so short! 

Image

By the way, Designer’s Showcase’s February collection is about to make its exit, so if you haven’t had a chance to stop by….why not drop in? All designers feature items for 100L or less so you may find a treat or two or three or ten.
