Talking to the birds (at The Trace)

Wish you a very good new week, guys.
My blog post today is first of all to let you know that the Fashion Show where I modeled last friday night was a success, thanks to the commitment of many different people. I think also the amount of money raised is totally satisfying, and I think people had fun watching elegant models walking the catwalk, dance, and …strip, showing their breasts as a reminder to the fight against cancer. So thanks from my hearth to all those who organized and to the generous donors, of course.

Second, related to that event, I’d like to show you the second outfit I used that night, and despite it’s long, it was not so impossible to dance on stage with it! Its an Asteria dress combined by me with two different color options, since the dress is available in many different shades. I love this dress, the bandana accessory, and the textures quality.
The pictures were taken by my friend Phuoc Hanh (thanks! Full photoshoot on his Flickr) on a wonderful sim I really love, The Trace, in its summer version. The Second Life claim of this lovely place on the SL Destination Guide says “come see serenity at it’s best”, and if you visit you really won’t be disappointed about that.
I spent also a lot of time talking to a nice bird, which is something I really recommend to anyone who wants to reconnect with his/her true nature. He told me interesting things about living into the wildlife.. but I’ll tell you more when I’ll meet you inworld 🙂 See you at the beach..

My (event) outfit:

HAIR | VANITY HAIR Amina HP-Black
DRESS | ASTERIA Stela outfit (mixed: purple pattern tank + lavender skirt) with Bandana
SHOES | MAITREYA Gold Shiki * Black
NECKLACE | MAXI GOSSAMER Shell – Teardrop (V1)
EARRINGS | MAXI GOSSAMER Octavia
BANGLES | *MM* Resin Bangles (bit old, can’t find any link, sorry)

My endless summer …

I know that most of the SL blogposts at the moment have an autumn taste, based on orange, red and black hues.. and I know that in most part of the world is getting colder and summer is gone already, while Halloween is knocking at the door.
But we are in SL, and when I feel my first summer nostalgie I head to places like Las Arenas, and just lie down on the sand, playing with shells, sniffing the sea breeze and listening to the roaring sound of the waves, which are never tired to fondle the shore.
I can forget any problem, any R(eal) L(ife) tension there. I can stay there for hours.
My bikini still gives me a sense of freedom and lightness, bangles are clinking.
And when I spot the autumn rain gently tapping my RL window, I just return with my gaze to the monitor, inhaling the ocean scent, listening to the seagulls.
My endless summer is going on sweetly, in Second Life…

HAIR | .SHI Raven Hair [Set 1 . Unisex]

1st of october, on the bridge at night

Hello… calm saturday here, good for some inventory cleaning (!) and a little walk around.. Some bloggers I follow gave the news about the Calas Galadhon’s NEVERLAND sim, opening.. today, first day of October! And specially designed for Halloween. I’m not a Halloween girl, actually, but the dreamy atmosphere, hiding something creepy probably and mysterious enough, together with some incredible light’s effects I loved, really caught my attention while seeing some early images taken by the bloggers (give a look at Kara’s blog, who I thank you, to get an idea, and to the new blogpost by Inara Pey).

I went, but I won’t tell you here what I saw, I prefer that you discover it yourself.. I just can say that the place is amazing, and I give you here a couple of images, as I passed by up a really scary suspended bridge, holding the torch I picked up at the landing point.
I’m also wearing my new M*Motion Off Shoulder Sweater, and the super brand new Kathreena jewelry blue set from Captivating!, bought just before at Rock your Rack 2016, (50% of this purchase is due to the cancer’s fight organisations).
Outfit details down here as usual.
Happy Second Life’s October, guys, and good explorations..

Outfit:

DRESS | M*MOTION  C16-09 Off Shoulder Sweater+Skirt

SHOES | VeNus  Ballet for SLINK/MAITREYA/BELLEZA/TMP

JEWELS | CAPTIVATING!  Katreena Collection in Blue (necklace, earrings, bracelets)

HAIR | .sWEET FACEs . . sWEET HAIRs.  Kimberly DT 04 Black

Walking at Duet

Just a walk around the interesting sim of Duet, today. A calm island, full of cozy corners, and especially devoted to photoshooting, offering also nice poses and breathtaking landscapes. I love to take some relax time in places like this. And an opportunity to learn something more about photography with the wise help of someone who know more than me about it..  Last but not least: I had fun playing the model role. Actually it’s a job I did in SL a little, and maybe I’ll do again. But today it was more a laughing thing, while jumping on the different poses.  🙂  Hope you will enjoy the gallery:

The simple outfit is the DAEVA Revolve Yoga Set Lime, used with the Omega applier on my Maitreya body. I’m barefooted (with KIBITZ Kandria toe rings), hair are Bob Knot by .SHI , and I wear a special hand jewel I adore, Victoria bracelet by MANNA.
Have a wonderful SL, guys! And let me know your thoughts please..

Watching the light.. at The Beach

Second Life is full of marvelous locations. Beaches, where to walk, swim, relax, meet people, are for sure on the top of the favourites spots for SL users.
There are a lot of interesting blogs which are also great destinations guides, telling you exactly what you will find on the different sims.
Here I prefer to just give you some little suggestion, mostly visual, showing some places I really love, and which are often a shelter to me, when I want to meet someone, or maybe just take a break from my RL.. or simply sit and watch the amazing landscape that the SL builders are offering me.
The Beach is a sim where I go since my beginnings here.
Every time I’m amazed by the wonderful sky, the sea, some little details, and the permanent “end of the day” light, like a never ending sunset going on…
Hope you will like.
