She Wore An Itsy Bitsy Cute Bikini

It was an itsy bitsy teen weeny...

You know the rest of the song! If you don't then just look it up, it's kinda cute. I had this song in my head recently and it got me into a "fun in the sun" kind of mood so I went into my "closet" and dug out some of my favourite swimwear. It's from Whippet & Buck and I got the whole fatpack because you can't have just one color choice obviously ha-ha! I visited the beach and struck a pose to show off these cute bikinis. Lastly, there's a picture of this cute artilleri retro like bikini that my friend Chill gave me from the gacha festival. Now I'm off to soak in the sun some more. Have a fabulous time shopping for cute swimwear!

Girlie Sailor

Ahoy Matey!

Today I was inspired by summer and nautical themed stuff. I rummaged through my inventory and found this cute dress I got in a hunt, that fit perfectly within my vision. From there I decided on a "Girly Sailor" type nautical look. I paired the dress with cute navy flats, a really sweet hair-do with a cute bow and added a bold red lipstick to add a splash of color. This look turned out better than I had imagined. Alright now this pretty lady is off to sail the virtual seas!

Just Chatting

Who doesn't like a good conversation?

Well if someone doesn't that's their issue ha-ha! I know one of my favorite things to do is relax outside while talking to a friend on the porch. Now for those of you saying you don't have a porch for conversing & relaxing, well never fear because Second Spaces is here! It's owned by the very sweet Elle Kirshner and has so many amazing items for your home. She created this wonderful little set up called the Conversation Porch. I was lucky enough to grab it during the skipping stones hunt, but luckily the item wasn't exclusive to the hunt therefore you can go ahead and pick up one today! Enjoy :)

Finale - BBBC 2010 #6

I cannot believe this is over!

Oh and that I actually was able to complete the whole thing! Some people want to continue going either because they started late or because they want more than just 6 days *cough* Marnix. lol

The last topic for this year's challenge that applies to me is:
If you're a veteran.... Did you find this year to be harder or easier than previous years? Did you have fun? What did you get out of it this time around? Do you think you'd do it again?

For me it was not harder because to me the challenge itself doesn't seem very difficult. Maybe because I like challenges lol. What I got from the experience this time around was the will to blog more often, and it finally sunk in that I don't need to always have elaborate creative posts just write. Of course I will do it again for as long as I can. It's a wonderful challenge and so worth doing. It's even given me inspiration to start up some blog challenges myself so stay tuned for that.

Thank you Alicia for creating this challenge and keeping it interesting. Thanks to all the bloggers for participating and giving people something awesome to read. xoxox

I Was Just Thinking - BBBC 2010 #5

That this blogger challenge rocks!

Today's topic is pretty easy. Just write whatever is on your mind. I have too many things on my mind lol but I decided to write about one that will appeal to all or at least most people.

SL decorating! I have always loved decorating and watching design shows etc... I grew up in a home where my mom was continually moving furniture around and sprucing things up with new coats of paint.

Now in SL if you have some land or even rent a home you can have so much fun decorating. There are tons of great stores in world that have furniture, decor/accessories, and of course prefabs aka houses or skyboxes.

My all time fave places right now are Molto Bene, The Loft, Lalicious Designs, What Next and so many more but my brain can't think of them all right now. What's great is the low prims, great quality and great prices of each item. From small homes to large ones, from family oriented to couples stuff you name it they have it!

One of my fave feeds to look at it is http://hgslfeed.com/ because a lot of my fave creators post there and also you get to see a range of different items and events going on in the decorating part of the virtual universe. Anyways enjoy the feed, they have a flickr group too where you can find out about great stuff through pics posted. Now go decorate :)

Age is Just A Number - BBBC 2010 #4

BBBC Sign Up Post - It's never too late to join! Just blog for 1 week!

I am so excited to be a part of this challenge & to actually be able to keep up! The topics are always awesome & interesting too! I love reading what others post as well.

Now for today's topic - Is your avatar more or less your current biological age? Do you portray a younger avatar, or older? Why is this?

Avatar's don't really age I mean unless you are role playing them to do so. I basically consider my avatar to be my age because she is me, just a virtual version. I grew up very fast mentally & even at age 4 felt like an adult. My life experiences have taken me into the role of a grown up for my entire life. I seem older then 22, I look younger (due to my illness) and I feel 100! lol

I don't role play being older or younger. No really specific reason just being myself. I never really knew about role playing ages when I joined SL but once I learned of it, it just didn't seem to be my thing. I know people that do, & they do it really well!

I always say "You are as old as you feel". Age is just a number. You can have two people of the same age but they can act completely different.

So basically my avatar is in her twenties but sometimes feels 100!

It's A Mess - BBBC 2010 #3

Today's BBBC topic didn't really pertain to me, but that's ok I have another topic!

Something that comes up every once in awhile is the size of your inventory. Usually people have pretty high numbers (24K, 30K, 70K etc) then there are those that are smaller like less than 10,000. Some people have never cleaned their inventories ever, which is most likely the cause of the high count in items lol

I on the other hand am sort of an organizer freak. I don't like clutter at all. My inventory is organized into categories, sub-categories that are all tucked into great folders. I will even rename folders & items if the name is something that won't be easy to search later on.

It get's even worse if you belong to groups for bloggers or just groups in general. Notecards, Landmarks, Objects - those three are what I call the problem folders lol they are hard to keep organized! It makes me laugh cleaning my invie and seeing things that are outdated & thinking "when did I ever think this was cute ?".

I should go organize now! You should too lol
