More About Me...

I've been around Second Life for a few years now - did the obligatory club scene, owned my own club. That didn't last too long. SL to me is now about content creation and fashion. I love to create (and learn) & to search for the most awesome creations in Second Life. I'll be opening my store, fucifino, soon and I will be showcasing my new creations here as well as all those awesome finds that I come across in my SL travels.

Another Side of me: Land Owner

I'm co-owner of Belle Island Estates. We offer land for rent or sale, residential or commercial. Currently offer 4096 lots for sale or rent. If you want something smaller, bigger, etc, we'll work with you to customize how you want your property.

52 Weeks of Color Challenge - Week 8 (Green)

52 weeks of color challenge week 8.1 Green

I love everything about Green: my RL bedroom is a soft shade of green; I went to a school wear our colors were Green and White; I love being 'Green' in everything I do. My inventory had lots of green in there for me to choose from, but this week, I wanted to be different from my other posts - I wanted to wear a dress. I rarely wear dresses in RL...and SL. I would love to wear them more often but the occasion to do has been limited since becoming a mother. So a new years resolution for myself in RL/SL: to wear more dresses and feel oh so pretty!

This dress by Zaara is absolutely beautiful! The only fitting I had to do was to adjust it for my poses, but besides that, it was meant for me LOL! The shawl is from Zaara too. The detail is stunning (check the pic below).

52 weeks of color challenge week 8.2 Green

It's amazing what a skin and hair color change will do for your look. I hardly recognize myself. I really enjoy this skin tone on me. So why do I always purchase lighter tones?? A thought I will ponder in the new year.

Speaking of the new year - I would like to wish all of you a very Happy New Year!!!

52 Weeks of Color Challenge - Week 7 (Cerise)

52 weeks of color challenge week 7.2 Cerise

I love pink! My closet is full of pink! I wish I could have a pink bedroom in RL but my hubby says no.  But I was really surprised to see that my SL was devoid of pink and the pink I had was a soft baby pink and not the bold hotness of Cerise. So I had a nice shopping spree, all in the spirit of blogging inspiration.

I saw these pants at Coco awhile back while shopping for another 52 Weeks of Color Challenge post and instantly remembered them. I love the wrinkles in them and that they come with multiple layers (not needed for this post, but I love to wear pants with an untucked shirt).

And my new fascination are ties. I think it's because I saw Pretty Woman recently and the whole naked yet for a tie scene is one of my favorites in the movie.

The Upcoming New Year Resolutions

I've already been thinking of ways to make my life simpler for the coming New Year, especially in regards to more regular blog posts and my real estate business in SL. I wish I could figure out a way to devote more time to both.

I figured one of the ways I could give more time to my real estate business was for me to create a blog just for Belle Island Estates, where I will put our recent property openings, deals and specials, as well as activities and news for residents. 

On the blog, I would like to highlight some of our residents and the beautiful ways they have made their land parcel into a home. This is one of the reasons why I love that many of our residents have been with us for months. 

So for now, here is the url to the new blog: http://belleislandestates.blogspot.com/

52 Weeks of Color Challenge - Week 6 (Yellow)

52 weeks of color challenge week 6.4

I'm not going to say this challenge was hard for me, because it wasn't.  It just required me to go shopping, so I guess it was hard on my L's.  :-)

My inspiration came from the open front COCO jeans. I mean, I was tempted by dresses but as I huddled in my blankets, I just couldn't find the power to click pay on them. *Side note* The shirt from artilleri comes longer but then you couldn't see the undies. 

Now on to the rest of the pics!

The Snowflake Experience Hunt Roundup Part 1

The Snowflake Experience is up and running and making LOTS of money to benefit Toys for Tots.  There will be quite a few happy boys and girls this holiday seasons thanks to this event.  Your purchases are helping give boys and girls across the country a smile this season instead of tears. Thank you so much!

Along with the exclusive items available only at the Snowflake Experience, there is a hunt going on as well.  You need to be on the lookout for candy canes. Here is a sampling of some that I was able to find.

Oh, a quick shout out to all my Gacha addicts: tomorrow the Gacha Festival starts on the TSE sim.  Can't wait to see what lovely stuff is in those addictive machines!.

52 Weeks of Color Challenge - Week 5 (Sepia)

52 weeks of color challenge week 5.1
shhh!

Here's to another installment of Luna Jubilee's 52 Weeks of Color Challenge.  Week #5!  This week my inspiration was the Baffle Caribou that I blogged about a couple days ago. How does one draw a fashion post from an animal? Well, I remember a time when I was younger having to use my great-grandpa's outhouse (he lived on a farm way up in the northern, desolate part of Wisconsin) and I saw a deer in the snow on the way there. I thought it was the coolest thing ever!

The only thing that I had to purchase for this photoshoot was, of all things, the outhouse. :-)

The Snowflake Experience Post #2

This will be a short post for me today. I spent most of my day tending to my sick little boy. Thankfully, he's finally resting his little head.  Speaking of kids, the Snowflake Experience opens tomorrow! The event will be raising money for the organization, Toys for Tots.  Please read my post from yesterday to get more info. And tomorrow I get to share the SLURL so you can go to check out this wonderful event!

The Snowflake Experience Post #1

The Snowflake Experience (TSE) is an event with over 60 vendors collaborating to help raise money for Toys For Tots. Each vendor will donate a portion or the full amount of their profits to Toys For Tots. I took a tour of the sim tonight while watching Santa Claus is Coming To Town. It's full of candy canes, snow, cabins and, my fave, gingerbread houses!

There are many exclusive items for this event, which starts December 4th, some of which I will show here today. There were so many goodies at TSE, I won't be able to fit it in this post today. Along with the vendor shops, there is a grid-wide TSE Hunt (search for those red and white candy canes) and for all those gacha lovers out there, there will be a Gacha Festival on December 10th.

Hit up the Snowflake Experience Subscriber, available at the aRAWRa mainstore, for more info about the event.

And now onto the goodies!
