It has been awhile but I am sorta back for the artistic side of SL.  I miss blogging, I miss being able to self reflect so here goes nothing!  I had fun putting this little room together using a lot of different items around the grid.

Attention

So I finally caved in and got the Catwa Jessica head.  I must say I was a skeptic but after I played around with it a bit I must say I LOVE IT!  It is so easy to photograph and my favorite skin lady Sawsan (owner of Wow Skins) has been busting out the appliers so that was basically what sold me.  Make sure you try a demo because I must admit the head is a bit pricey at $3599L (more than the price of a mesh body).  But it does offer quite a bit and it seems as though there are updates coming soon.  I am happy with my purchase!

What Do You Mean?

So I love Blueberry.... They make nothing less than perfection and they support all of the most popular mesh bodies in SL.  What more can you really ask for?  Can I just say these jeans are a must have and at just $199L they are a super steal.  Head on down to the mainstore and try to decide what color or colors you want to add to your inventory!

This hair, oh this HAIR!!! I have bought enough hair in my SL but I only have a few favorites and this is definitely a new favorite!  Not a lot of people can do long hair and do it right but this one is AMAZING!  Stop by We ♥ Roleplay and get it over at the RunAway booth!

And let's not forget about these gorgeous shoes by Illi!  My friend Alphonse de Ophidion always goes over and above with his creations.  These shoes come with a HUD where you could virtually change them any color of the rainbow and more!  Customizing these shoes couldn't be easier and I just love the look of them.  Get them at Cosmopolitan before its too late!

If I were to have a summer party in RL I would want it to include all of these fabulous items but add the wine please!  Summer brings out the fun side of people, the happy side.  Good weather, great food and amazing company.  Late night bonfires with smores, camping in the woods, a day at the beach... all perfect settings in a perfect little summer world.

Let it go

Sometimes we are faced with challenges in our lives, but often times the negative turns into something positive.  Embrace that positivity and create something beautiful out of it.  I am firm believer that everything happens for a reason and a hello could turn into something magical.  I miss butterflies and smiling til my face hurts and staying up late only to be exhausted the next day. Let's just say I am smiling today :)

I am so ready for sun, adult beverages and endless eye candy!  What about you?  This winter is like 9 months long and I am so over it.  Thank goodness in SL you can get to the beach and pretend like nothing else in the world is going on at this time.  I decided I was going to mix and match this bikini up because in all honesty fashion is so versatile now so we can be daring and make bold moves. Try it out, you will be glad you did!

Sunday's were made for shopping

I have been off and on SL all weekend and in my travels I have picked up a few great things along the way.  First I got this amazing house from Trompe Loeil, one of my favorite stores in SL for just 88L.  I just had to run home and decorate it right away.  I am really starting to enjoy the Interior Decorating side of SL.  It lets me get creative and share so many stores at once.  I hope you enjoy it just as much.  Thank you for having a look and I hope you have a happy week.
