Sail Away With Me

♬  Sailing, takes me away 

To where I've always heard it

Just a dream and the wind to carry me

Soon I will be free

Fantasy, it gets the best of me when I'm sailing

All caught up in the reverie ....  ♪

That, I am sure... I am lost in reverie!  

Those are part of the lyrics of the popular song titled Sailing sung by Christopher Cross in the 80s.     

In this photo, you can see me wearing a super cute and lovely jumpsuit by La Estrella.  Perfect in all ways and all angles.... the textures, the design and the fit.  I absolutely love it, and frankly, I would wear it and style up the same in real life.  This jumpsuit is available in 4 colour choices, i.e. grey, turquoise, brown, black.  Each colour includes 5 different colour bows of yellow, pink, green, blue and sand.  Free demo is available at the main store and Marketplace.  

The two-tone yellow tote bag is created by my friend as seen in my last post.  I have requested him to make a new version which excludes the funny features in the first version.  It matches wonderfully with my jumpsuit and perfect for sailing out on a bright sunny day.

Wandered Out

There is no end to things we can explore in Second Life and this is what makes Second Life so interesting.  Having said that, on the other hand, one may also feels bored especially when one is aimless.

I love it most when I could dress up in my new outfits, step out to explore a new place and snap some nice photos.  And today is just that wonderful day!  No posing in front of a textured board for photo shoots. There is less privacy though.  Sometimes I get people blocking my camera view and sometimes I get people IM me or sending friendship request.  All these could take up a lot of my time, unless I have plenty of time to spare at that moment, I don't really mind.  It can be quite interesting and amusing to have a few small chats with polite passers-by.    

Today I am all dressed, suitably, for this sim named Dryland.  I am wearing a mix and match, a top from La Estrella and a long pants I bought from Designer Circle recently.  The cropped knit top and shirt is an attached piece with fine quality textures.  This cute top is available in three other knits colour besides this brown-beige one on me.  The other colours are Indian red, pink and slate blue.  And ... oh my!  There are so many options in each one sold .... two sweater textures and three shirt textures in beige, grey and black.  If this sound too complicated for you, no worries!  Just head to the main store to try a free demo or get it at Marketplace.  But really, don't miss it ... it's only L$150 for all those options.

Dryland

Dryland is a new sim created by the talented Anita Witt.  As the name itself already tells that it is an arid land, so it is impossible to find green lush growth around but it is interesting enough to find other landmarks built on this sim.  

Just when I was wandering about and mesmerized by the surrounding, it began to rain!  Whaaat ....??!!  Did I bring the rain here?  I had to cover my head and run for shelter! 
    

ummmmh.... yes.. it was me who brought the rain!

Well, my friend made this mesh handbag that comes with the rain, pose and a menu with options that controls the facial expression.  The non-rigged mesh belt I am wearing is also made by my friend and it is resizeable.  They are both available for sale on Marketplace.

Visit Dryland at ....

Dryland

A giant dry lake bed, a parched and barren place where hulks of rusted ships rest on dried, cracked mud. A once desert island with decayed warehouses now holds art galleries, while the surrounding landscape hosts gypsies, carnies and tradespeople. This is Dryland, the new sim design by Anita Witt.

Visit in Second Life

Why do parents dress up twins the same?

Twins already look alike, why do many people dress them the same?    Shouldn't they have their own identities?  At least, it would be easier to tell them apart. If twins own different outfits, they could share each other's wardrobe and this could save much more money than buying everything in double. ..... I am really curious....

I haven't blog for quite a bit now.  The hot and humid weather at 37 degree celcius has made it quite impossible to sit for longer hours in front of the pc working or enjoy SL without sweating.  It just killed the fun.  Just today, my bff (she's not my twins) called me and told me about this store.  When two lass go shopping together, it's very likely that they would end up buying the same thing.  But then, the good thing is, this delicate top comes in a choice of 10 colours!  It looks pretty! .... and 'feels' great ....  in a hot weather wearing light!  It's quite hard to separate rl and sl feelings, you know.

Meshy Affair

I consider myself not an impulse shopper.  May be I am at times, but this rarely happens.  When Collabor88 announced its May editions, I just had to go over and get those few things that caught my eyes.  My teleport failed the first time.  It said the region is full!  And when I finally did get there, I was stucked in heavy lag.  Many have gone super frenzy over shopping at Collabor88, obviously!  This experience seems familiar, like going to a grand fair except we were not warned to remove scripts and wear low lag outfits.  

In a small area like Collabor88, it's easy to see the cluster of shoppers.  Many have "missing" body parts, some of them got their nipples exposed.  That was a meshy affair!  Good news is, many have grown to love mesh outfits like I do.  The bad news is, my viewer (3.2.1), even though it supports mesh view, but it has a bug where mesh queue always appears whenever there are too many mesh objects loading.  Sure, the bug is fixed after upgrading to a newer version but my problems is, my PC hardware is at its maximum now.  Unless I upgrade my PC, otherwise these "ugly sights" will always crop up.

For the love of mesh, I got four new items in mesh again.  Take a look at the list of things I have on me.

I am wearing....

Hair:  Clawtooth ~ Glamazon [mesh]  (at Collabo88 now!)

Skin:  Belleza ~ Chloe

Clothes:  Hucci ~ Poetic Romper [mesh] (at Collabo88 now!)

Necklace and Earrings:  PurpleMoon Creations ~ Cubics II [previous hunt gift]

Bracelet:  Maxi Gossamer ~ Anthena bangle [mesh]

Clutch bag:  Haut Monde ~  Mesh Flap Clutch [mesh]

Shoes:  Pixelfashion ~ Eve Temptation
