Beachin' It



You know the story. You may have lived it. You plan a relaxing day with your best friend, but on the way to the beach, you have a huge fight over something really stupid, like him taking a "shortcut" and getting stuck in a traffic jam. You end up not speaking to each other for half the day.


You both feel miserable, but neither wants to be the first to apologize.

Then he does something insanely silly and you just have to laugh. Before you know it, you're both saying "I'm sorry". The earlier argument is forgotten and you're having a wonderful time.

As you prepare to pack up, he realizes he doesn't remember where he parked. "Climb up the palm tree and see if you can see the car."

Here we go again! Next time, I drive!

As temperatures soar, it's important to remember that we're all human and that it's more important to be kind than to win the argument. Take a breath, smile and say "I'm sorry I lost my temper", even if you are right.

Goodies from several of my favorite designers today: Gyouko Espresso skin from Soul, 3 of the colors for the La Perla bikini, 3 variations of the sandals from Lindy, Beach chairs (with poses) and accessories from ZoAwesome, other poses from SamPoses and Salacity

Summer Sun Fun




Featuring gacha items from irrISIStible. I didn't win the matching shoes, even though they were COMMON.
I got 2 RARE hats instead. The sleeves belonged to another of the sets in the machine.
That's half the fun of dressing with gachas: mix, match, try things you think would never work together and see what happens!

I'm wearing shoes from KC. I love her shoes!
A 45 color hud lets you customize to coordinate with any outfit.

Nails from DP Koffin Nails come in 12 metallic over enamel colors and 2 styles for fingers and toes.

The poses are from WetCat. Sized for standard, tall and curvy avatars. The pose set includes a straw hat for those of you who don't win one of the RARES in the gacha machine.

Route 66 Story


If I can only make it to the big city, I'll become rich and famous... well, that's the goal anyway. Anything has to be better than living in a trailer park where the biggest tourist attraction is a two-headed snake. I'm gonna run away!

After standing at the side of the highway for 2 days, getting really sunburned and having absolutely nobody even slow down, I decided to run away back home and take that job they offered me at the cafe. Maybe taking care of Lloyd and Floyd, the two headed snake, won't be so bad after all.

Weekend of July 7

It's too hot to spend much time outdoors, but fortunately, you can shop to your heart's content in SL without breaking a sweat. There are lots of shopping events this weekend, so whether you tastes run to beachwear, casuals, fantasy, formals or something else, you'll find items to delight.
Listed alphabetically, here are some of my favorites:

Designer Showcase July 5-31
This is a monthly event. This round offers lots of beachwear, casuals, jewelry and shoes from some of your favorite designers. Always a good place to find the latest looks at reasonable prices.

Gacha Guardians Free gifts for group members and specialty items for frequent players. Instead of one big circle of machines this time, there are a number of small ones, so if you think you've reached the end, you probably missed something.

Hair Fair July 1-16
Find the latest hair styles, colors and accessories. Free gifts in many of the shops. Men's hair is easy to find, just look for the huge signs that point to stores with men's products. Part of the purchase price of hairs sold during the fair is donated to Wigs for Kids, an organization that provides real hair for kids who have lost their own through illness or accident.

Midsummer Enchantment Ends July 9
A lovely special event for those who enjoy having a little magick in their lives. Besides some wonderful clothing, there is a L$5 hunt and Exclusive items at each of the shops. This event also features displays by several wedding planners, so if your big day is coming up, you might want to check out the offerings

Square1 July 7-31
This is a monthly event. This round offers lots of poses as well as clothing and gachas. Casuals and cutting edge outfits are available at low prices.
