Conrad Corner Couch Living Room Set

A corner couch is always a nice thing. It fits in tight spaces. This corner set by is by Dreamland Designs. I love the neutral pallet with the light green. Once again I placed it at the coast. I really would love to curl up with a book and read here all day. I would lock the kids out so I wou…

Sycamore Barbecue & Dining Set

Don't let the last few weeks of summer slip away with out a BBQ. The Sycamore Barbecue and Dinning Set by Old Barn Door is perfect for those last minute get togethers. I love the level on detail on the patio furniture. Old Barn Door - Sycamore Collection* Chair (LI:5ea.), Grill (LI:14), Hambur…

Serena Mediterranean Collection

By now you should all know my love for the coast. The Serena Mediterranean Collection by Park Place is just that. A nice basic pallet with blue and white accenting colors. It makes me long for a beach vacation. I would live at the coast if my husband would move there. He prefers the forest, b…

Magic's In The Air

Magic's is in the air. This all started with the bed and the rug. Then I found some furniture that I thought would go great together at the Wizarding Faire that ends on the 21st. Then I had my friend come look at what I had set out and she added a few things to it as well. It is the perfect…

Sheer You Later

The SAS Quinn Outfit has a sheer or non sheer shirt option. I really like the texturing on the shirt. I choose the sheer shirt option because it made me think of what happened in real life the other day. I was at the zoo with my children and here comes this mom in a white tank with no bra. I br…

Beatrice Collection

My daughter is spunky, funky and fun just like this living room set. She loves colors and to dance. The Beatrice Collection by Thanio Designs reminds me of her. Today she starts first grade so I felt a blog post inspired by her was due. This whole collection is bright and colorful. I love you…

Bar & Bears

I went out to the bar all of once this summer with my girlfriends and man did we have a great time. We ended up walking home quite tipsy in the woods with no flashlight. Thank goodness it was a full moon and we didn't encounter any bears. The only bears you will get when you visit this bar …

Sam's Cottage

I headed out to visit my parents one last time before the school started. Summer will become more structured as we head back to more of a normal routine. I really am looking forward to school starting and just having one child at home. We are very lucky to have a small community with mix grade c…

Swim Suit Life

Do we really need to get dressed during summer or is it an unwritten rule we can live in our swim suits? This suit is so adorable and I love the matching little vest with it. You could even add your favorite summer ripped shorts and be on your way. QE Designs - Ella Curves Cheetah Truth - Curious L…

Vacay Mode Ahead

We are enjoying the last few weeks of summer. School will be starting soon and we are going to visit family one last time before that happens. I will be in Vacay Mode as my coffee cup states. Well as much vacation as I can be running after my two kids in someone else's home. Sounds great ri…

Early Start To Fall

I said fall was around the corner but this room is your perfect start. I love the rose gold colored metal by Dictaorshop. It just feels so homey to me. Usually I lean more towards gold accent colors in Second Life. Maybe rose gold will become my new go to. Dictatorshop - Circles Collection* Curv…

To Town I Go

I feel like I need to do some serious shopping. It seems it is all I have been doing, but that is in Second Life. I live remotely and need to make a trip to town. It's a big shopping day, so round trip is six hours or so to get to Costco. The best part is that I get to pick my car with hope…

The Retreat

I purchased The Retreat by Ex Machina after I styled one of their houses for the home decorating contest. I came home and actually redid that house on my home lot. Then I added the retreat to the mix like a mother-in-law quarters. It looks lovely. I styled this home in dark colors which are opp…

What Tan Lines?

What tan lines? I picked up this suit off of a weekend sale and I just adore it. It's a string mono kini. I am dancing the day away at the house sorting through about four weeks of weekend sales that I have yet to open. I have been doing some serious shopping and now it's time to sort i…

Blue For The Win

Blue for the win!! It is a very nice bright summer color to complete that beach themed house I know you all have. Soak up all the summer colors before we start pulling the autumn color pallet into our decorating. Chez Moi - Bellshire Kitchen Collection* Lamp, Top Cabinets, Cutting Board, Kitchen…

Last Month Of Summer

I feel like August is the last true month of summer. Then fall will start rolling in with all the jeans and sweaters we can imagine. Pumpkin everything will dominate not only SL but RL as well. So here I am soaking in the last month of summer. I.M. Collection - Chloe Lace Dress* @Designer Showca…

Happy Birthday Celibrations

Happy Birthday real life to me or in real life as my six year old daughter says (thanks youtube)!! The family and I are headed out to celebrate at the lake. A while back I bought this bar from Kraftwork. At the time I thought it came with all the bottles shown (it doesn't) and I didn't re…
