cherries

I couldn’t resist Zenith’s ruffled cherry print top when I saw it at The Fashion Garret a few days ago…and my red Mstyle Rivea Pumps were screaming to be worn with it. I’ve said it before I’ll say it again; these could possibly be the sexiest shoes on the grid. imho that is.

taking a good look at myself

These shoes, the Kookie Chic Heels, were one of my first “biggie” shoe purchases…I had to have them…even as I was putting them on for this shoot I was oohin’ and ahin’ all over like it was the first time I’d ever seen them. Kookie Lemon is retiring them, plus some other older styles forever..but not without first giving us the opportunity to get them for half off…click here to TP to Kookie!

How quickly our sl favorites become “vintage” items it seems…hell…how quickly we become “vintage”, lol….
So this lotd is some “vintage” sl mixed with some new sl, like The Secret Store’s hot new summer beach shorts.

Olivia!

I’m so excited about Laqroki‘s new Olivia! I mentioned to a friend in my previous post’s comments, “…i was worried at first because i was having puter issues when i was demo’ing it…i think i was seeing olivia mixed with ruth lol…not pretty!“

But when all the kinks were ironed out, and I saw her, it was pretty much love at first sight

 Olivia is 990L$ per skintone, and includes 5 lipstick choices. (above)

They’ve also released eye makeups on tattoo layers that you can buy separately for 120L$ a set. The pic above are the shadows in set 1…set 2 offers blue, green and purple liners..

I hadn’t been to Donna Flora in quite some time…that store awes me every time I go…so many beautiful things. I absolutely fell in love…(i know, i’m falling in love all the time :p) with the Daria set, (below). They also have a free jewelry set in the store..I hadn’t heard anything about it..I was so excited to find it! I’m going to try to get a pic of it up today but it would be probably be faster to just tp to Donna Flora and get it..I mean, c’mon..a free Donna Flora jewelry set..you know you’re going to want it lol.

this post is for the birds

I’ve recently discovered a “new to me” sim called Cadeling Garden..a beautiful whimsical place, like something out of a dream. There were blackbirds flying around in various spots, so I had to pull Lady out and take a few pics

*Cadeling Garden is a magical world where two French artists, Cadel Abubakar and Ling Serenity, present their artwork inside a fantasy and poetic atmosphere suspended above the water. The garden is a place to meditate, to take some gorgeous photos or just explore and relax!

The photo below was taken by the amazing Miss Dailyn Holfe, and you can see more on her flickrstream, here.

Click here to experience Cadeling Garden, and while you’re there, check out some of the different sky settings your viewer has to offer..you’ll get some amazing results!

tinkerbell meets gladiator

Gladi-Bell?….Tinkerator? I think I’ll keep working on the name :p

The outfit, on the other hand, looks pretty good to me! I dont’ know how long this hair has been free at lamb but I grabbed it in every color, and today I’ve decided to be a firey red head. The gift Exodi skin comes with red brow tats and I have to say..I’m really digging this coloring on Poppy. She reminds me of a young and sexy Marilu Henner…

Purrfect 10′s Florence Heels are so gorgeous, and have beautiful prim feet, yay! These are limited edition and can be found at the Purrfect 10 booth at the Shoe Fair..for 25% off! Also, each part of these heels are scripted to colorchange to black if you like…so you can wear them in many different combinations.

a day on the yacht

Just having a little fun in photoshop today…if time had permitted there would have been a boatful of Poppy’s…I even thought of putting tiny Poppy’s way in the back playing in the waterfall and making a “count the Poppys game”, lol..but alas…I only had time for one. I wish my photoshop abilities were advanced enough to create the picture/ideas that I see in my mind..
