The Muse Conservatory


Every now and again I run into something so great, so beautiful…that I simply have to go back to enjoy it some more. Easy in SL, just tp and immerse! Earlier this week I discovered a building that took my breath away. Not even a house, or a castly, or a mansion….nope. A greenhouse. Or…

Dark Swan


I am totally in love with this new release by Gizza Creations, called: Dark Swan! It is a complete outfit, so hat and boots and all….just gorgeous! (there is also a version for men that love feathers…..)  

The Bridges Of ImperiuM Island


This weekend I picked up all the trees, grass, rocks and other decorations on ImperiuM Island, getting it empty for the big move to our new home. I did it properly, so not to mess up my inventory!, and all in all it took me over 3 hours. Well, yes…I also took the time to…

Dranopia – The Lost World


Last week I visited Dranopia, but was so busy looking around – being amazed – that I did not really took the time to take pics and write a blog about it, but made an LM and decided to go back for more! This morning I did and really enjoyed it, again! Dranopia – The…

Kukulkan (Greenies!!!!)


Kukalkan is a wonderful place, from the landingpoint (which reminded me of Stargate) to the stage with stonehenge-like objects, forests with lovely flower and floating islands! A true fantasyworld to wander around and enjoy, and…to discover things that may have been considered gone from SL: I ran, to my immense delight, into three Greenies! For…

Arctica Dreams


Arctica Dreams is an amazing art installation on Metales, by Rebeca Bashly. A true masterpiece, created in ice! I found it refreshing that Rebeca did not use the so often seen (white-blueish) ice and snow textures, but choose for an almost glasslike way to create this quiet and cold fantasy world. My pics don’t do…

Heavy Heart


The last days of the year were…odd. We, ImperiuM, had to make a very tough decision, one that left me with a heavy heart for some days. And still. After having ‘lived’ on our own sim since November 2009, we had to decide to let it go. The monthly costs of tier, the decrease in…

‘Tulips from Amsterdam’


When it’s Spring again I’ll bring again Tulips from Amsterdam With a heart thats true I’ll give to you Tulips from Amsterdam I can’t wait until the day you fill These eager arms of mine Like the windmill keeps on turning That’s how my heart keeps on yearning For the day I know we can…

A Good Hair Day


Today, when  looking for nothing in particular, I went to D!va hair – just to see what was new in store. To my delight I discovered (I am really bad in reading groupnotices and stuff, it is probably announced…) they have a great gift for their groupmembers, to celebrate their 25K (!!) members: a fatpack…

Kuru Kuru World – by Mikati Slade


Boxing Day and I woke up this morning , exploring an amazing art installation on MiC – Kuru Kuru World by Mikati Slade. As the short decription says: a future Pop Art Exhibition. It is bright, it is pink, it moves and it is absolutely worth a visit! I have used the advised windlightsetting [TOR]…

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…

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 5th of December!


Much to my annoyance I have seen lots of Christmas decorations already, in SL that is. Overhere in my RL, Holland, not so much. It would have been very not done and if one dares to decorate for Christmas before the 5th of December, one will be named and shamed in the neighbourhood! I have…

Cocoon: Turtles & Elephants!


This morning I visited Cocoon. Although I think I have been there before, apparently the place is redecorated, as everything was new to me! As you may know, or if you didn’t then you know now!, I have a preference for bright, colourful and shiny places. Yeah, I enjoy the occasional gothic or dark themed…
