Dinner party!


This week of the year is overloaded with food, dinner parties and festivities – not only in RL but for me this year particularly in Second Life. When hopping around in between my sailing adventures…I ran into the dinner party set at La Galleria (where I also bought my cabin) and I just needed to…

YumYum and KAO


Every now and again I like to check  places I have blogged about in the past, just to see if it still exists and in case of shops to see if there is something new I really need to have. Today I went to check up on Yum Yum. They are located in a lovely…

What The …..Christmas Elf!


Every Christmas in Secondlife I like to dress myself up as Christmas Elf! Not Santa or Mrs Santa, I just prefer the Elf in a green outfit. My favourite designer for holiday outfits is Laura Boram, for What The… (her easterbunny outfit is an all-time favourite!). This year her Christmas Elf outfit is just lovely!…

Wellies!


After almost 2 days of landscaping in the snow, I decided I deserved something pretty! Heh. Actually I just needed some sort of excuse to buy the amazing (mesh) Wellington’s from GOS! Being Dutch and therefore familiar with wetlands and rain – I grew up wearing Wellies almost year round. Yes, I also had wooden…

Surprise!


That was a nice surprise, coming home after a night of sparring….to find out my neighbour has removed her palmtree and placed some snowy trees that make it snow really nice! I do not mind the snow also ‘falls’ a bit on my land, it gives me a reason to do some more gardening and…

The Art of Unpacking


When I was ‘born’ in 2007, shopping was quite an adventure and unpacking the goodies even more! Most purchases came in a box or a poster (some really huge) and you had to go to a sandbox – if one did not have land – when the shop did not allow rezzing, to unpack your…

Squirrels!


Pets in SL, I don’t have them. Nor do we have animals in the wild on our sim or on my land. But I do like the occasional animal, when I encounter them on my virtual travels, unless they are noisy or talking nonsense. Anyway! I was shopping around a couple of days ago and…

Classy mesh by Celoe


Last night, after some crazy fights with Pilar, I felt the need to shop for some nice things. Like a new outfit or something. I was inspired by two fashionbloggers who’s pics and tips are always just my taste (Gogolita & Grazia), and on their blogs I found the LM to a new designer in…

Vintage Fair 2011 – I made it!!


A coupe of days ago I finally made it to the Vintage Fair 2011, which has been impossible since the opening due to overcrowded sims and lag! Now the first week has passed, things are slightly better – so I could walk around and shop! Four sims with vintage clothing, furniture and accessories – shoppingheaven!…

Butterfly Barbie


If there ever was an outfit that made me look like a true Barbie…it must be the groupgift of this month, from Gizza Creations! Very pink and very fluffy, it is a complete set: a top, jeans and it comes with a fur-cardigan, belt and bag. It is free for groupmembers and if you like…

The 1920s Berlin Project


A place that sits on my list to visit for ages now is The 1920s Berlin Project. As the name says: it is Berlin in the 1920’s, ergo: historic roleplay. From what I understood it  is not roleplay with difficult storylines and such, but people live there as citizens of Berlin, situated in the 1920’s….

Dream on….


When logging  in on Sunday morning, I got a notice from Azul about new releases and the free gift. Yay! I hopped over to their (recently redecorated) main store to check it out, being a fan of Azul’s gowns for ages. One of the new releases caught my eye immediately, the Isabella…what a gorgeous gown!…

Zigana


A couple of weeks ago I wandered around in a beautiful place called: Zigana. It is a pleasant, almost mediterranean sim with a pittoresque market square surrounded by old buildings and a small shop behind the bakery. A perfect place to sit on the small terrace and get a holiday feeling. Besides the market square…

Meet Yum


When reading my daily doses of SL-blogs I stumbled upon Gogolita’s Newbie Style Challenge II. It is all for fun and sounds easier than it turned out to be. The challenge is: go from newbie to a nicely dressed up avatar with a maximum of LS 550. Ouch! That is not a lot – I…

Humble in Gizza Creations


A couple of nights ago I was picking up free groupgifts at Gizza Creations, which I recently found out they have…I am a bit slow on the freebie-front, usually I am not really interested in them. Gizza however has some wonderful outfits, monthly for members and they are all available close to the landing point!…

Light and Gravity


Thursday evening and I felt kind of restless. For no reason, just one of those days. After having shopped at Leezu (I blame Venus, she mentioned the L-word in one of her comments…) I was all dressed up and had nowhere to go. Le Sigh.. I started looking for a nice place to make some…
