It seemed like a perfect day to head out into the garden and enjoy the spring sunshine.  It was made easier by having this lovely gazebo to hang out in.  This is another one of the new pose props from L’aize Dayz.  Loads of great poses and so pretty to boot.

It perfectly showcased these gorgeous outfits that I have to show you today.  The first one is from Senzafine and is the stunning Sohma Tank Tunic Outfit in the Curry colour.  This style can be dressed up with an updo and boots or kept casual as I have chosen to do today.  The colours available are all as wonderful as this and I had trouble choosing which one to show you.

The second outfit is from Pure and is the Grace outfit.  How classy is this?  A great look for wearing on a yacht or wandering the beachfront stores.  The pants are so feminine and especially with the cinched waist.  Wear it with sneakers, as I am, or pair it with some boat shoes or espadrilles.

I have a bit of a reputation amongst my SL friends of being a bit crazy when it comes to piloting boats.  Just ask my friend, Kav, about the infamous Gondola incident…

So, it would come as no surprise to many of them, and especially Kav, that I am doing these pictures on an upturned boat.  I would like to point out, however, that in this case the boat is supposed to be this way as it is a new pose prop from from L’aize Dayz.  It works in the water or on the beach and is fun for bloggers and picture takers alike.

The swimsuit is from {PopTart} and is the Frilly Swimsuit and Glasses.  It is currently the gift in the Hide and Seek Hunt, so get ya hunting gears on and check it out.

Bus stop, wet day, she’s there, I say, Please share my umbrella,  Bus stop, bus goes, she stays, love grows, Under my umbrella, 

Every mornin’ I would see her waiting at the stop,  Sometimes she’d shopped and she would show me what she bought,  All the people stared as if we were both quite insane,  Someday my name and hers are going to be the same, 
Heavenly at L’aize Dayz has turned her hand to pose props and, like everything she does, they are great.  Loads of poses that show off clothes and shoes, or are just great for taking some snaps of yourself.
I thought I would show you a few of the poses whilst modelling some of the new round from Acid Lily.  This will give you an idea of how this prop can be used for bloggers or self-pics.

I have this very cool windmill from Scarlet Creative to blog.  I am so excited.  I love seeing a home that is fun and different. I couldn’t wait to rez this and fill it with some furniture.  I will confess I got a bit carried away and filled it up with as much of the awesome stuff I had to blog as I could.

This house is a stunner and perfect if you don’t have a lot of space on your land, or if you don’t need a huge house.  It has three spaces:  2 downstairs and one upstairs.  I also love the split level design.  You need to go take a look for yourself!

Enjoy!

It is time for The Challenge again, and this month the theme is California Bungalow.

The lovely Blue Bungalow is from L&K Prefabs and I love the exterior and interior colours.  It has great detail too with the piping and lovely deck area.  This home would be perfect for a smaller section or someone not wanting a huge house.  I have used different windlight effects in these pics so the exterior paint may look different in each.  It is a great dark purple colour in actuality.

The dining set is from End of Daze.  The chairs have great animations that interact well with the table and environment.  It is a classy set and I love the scrolling on the chairs.  I have added some accessories from L’aize Dayz (not in The Challenge) to give you idea of how it would look in your home.

This fabulous Night Stand is from [bauwerk].  I love the art deco look to it and the addition of the books, lamp, vase and fabric.  Perfect by your bed or as a stand-alone item in a living area.

And lastly is this Bungalow Veranda from Cleo Design» View author and full post…. It actually comes with its own veranda, but I have taken the pics on the Blue Bungalow deck so give you an idea of how versatile this set is.

I have always wanted a treehouse in SL, so when I saw this Treehouse Cottage from Trompe Loeil I have to confess I got pretty excited.  Maybe it is because one of my fav books growing up was The Swiss Family Robinson.  If I had the chance to build a house in a tree in RL I would and move in immediately.  How cool would that be?

Well, the good news is you can at least have that joy in SL.  This treehouse is now at Collabor88 and I love it all from the awesome deck area down below to the attic rooms up high.  SO cool!

While you are grabbing your treehouse make sure you also grab this fabulous Hanging Bed (Trompe Loeil).  Loads of great animations for you and your significant other.  The pillows are also colour change.

Heavenly from L’aize Dayz» View author and full post… threw these lovely items at me the other day and I complained I was squished.  Still, when I saw them I didn’t mind a bit of concussion because they are relax-a-licious.  The Shabby Day Bed comes with the laptop and is a group discounted item.

Rub-a-dub-dub I am in the tub and it is a lovely one!  Yes, this is the new offering from Trompe Loeil that is available at faMESHed.  This gorgeous bathtub, sink and vanity are part of the Vintage Collection and will have you looking retro glam in no time!

The bathtub comes in a variety of colours including the ceramic blue one that I am enjoying.  The taps work and the poses are for singles or bathtime with that special someone!  I don’t like to share because then there is more room for me!

After my bath I can get ready for bedtime by washing off my makeup in this Vintage Sink.  Room for two here and poses to wash your face or hands.  You can also buy the lovely Rope Mirror in a variety of colours too.

This fabulous Vintage Vanity comes with an installer which makes rezzing it so simple.  One touch of a button and you have it all set up and ready to use.  The animations and props are fun to use from applying mascara to doing your nails or just staring into the mirror!

My towel comes from Glitterati Poses» View author and full post… and is in the set called Towel, aptly.

I am currently pretending that the weekend hasn’t ended and that a new week begins.  This is why I am showing you some great house items, so we can all pretend together and just redecorate with weekend abandon!

Today’s items are fabu!

I know Valentine’s Day was SO last week, but that doesn’t mean you can’t still grab this great group gift called C-Day Dining Set from PrimTique (formerly known at Lustre Designs).  Love is a year round thing and what nicer way to celebrate with your loved one than with a romantic dinner or glass or wine for two!

The next item is a hunt one from [CIRCA].  I know some of you are in cold parts and so are probably dealing with flus and colds.  This ‘Days of Ill” Day Bed will have others rushing around to fix you cups of soup and hot tea.  It is currently in The Cold Hunt.

Heavenly threw these at me the other day, which really hurt, cos they are heavy!  They are new releases and are the Dresser and Highboy in Beachy Blue, and the Clock Mesh Footstool.  Always great prices at L’aize Dayz» View author and full post…, so make sure you go check them out and ogle the new store at the same time.
