I Guess That’s Why They Call It The Blues

November 4, 2011 Alicia Chenaux

I’m supposed to be packing, but I’m procrastinating. No, I’m not going anywhere fun. My dad’s having another surgery and I’ll be staying over with my parents for a few days while he recovers just to help out. But I guess I can pretend it’s a vacation? I’m a little blue about it, so putting together a blue outfit just seemed totally right.

For Fifty Linden Friday this week, Ingenue has these great new Collette skirts. They are mesh skirts, but you don’t have to worry about the fit because the skirt part is like a normal prim crotch flap, but being that it’s mesh, it moves with your body and blends in with the rest of the skirt. Love love love! There are 2 colors for FLF this week, and I’m so very happy she put it out early so I could get it!!

Collabor88 for November starts on the 8th and The Sea Hole is putting out some really cute items, like this pretty little Corsage ring, bracelet, and nail polish set. I can’t wait for the whole collection!

The dryer just went off so I guess it’s back to packing. I’ll see you guys next week!

Going Back

August 22, 2011 Alicia Chenaux

School starts back here in my area tomorrow. I’m a huge fan of back to school stuff! New clothes, new school supplies, the works! Of course, I’m not in school anymore, but I can still look the part!

I totally fell in love with this little Lace Heart Cropped Top from Emery, out right now at The Dressing Room Blue. And the Lavender hair I picked up from fri.day for Fifty Linden Friday is sooo cute! A “tiny bird” said there’s a new hair designer at fri.day, so I guess we can expect more goodies soon! Oh, and I could not resist these mouth pencils from Naminoke that I picked up at the Gacha Festival! I don’t usually like things hanging off my mouth, but these are cute and who doesn’t put a pencil in their mouth sometimes?

For Moody Monday, my favorite pose store, aDORKable Poses, has the Learning Curve desk set. The desk & chair are color change, and there are 5 poses for the prop. Love love love. For those of you who are doing the Harry Potter roleplay thing, you should totally get this!!

Have a great Monday!

Tonight I’m Gonna Be A Little Selfish

August 13, 2011 Alicia Chenaux

There are few times in my life when I feel selfish. Being selfish, on occasion, isn’t a bad thing. Tonight I feel selfish. I want to just dress myself up in something simple and pretty, and have it be all about me. ❦

Stop! Collabor88 and Listen!

August 7, 2011 Alicia Chenaux

Did you hear the news? Collabor88 starts TOMORROW!!! What is it? Well, it’s a new monthly shopping event with some of the grid’s most beloved designers bringing you new items at low prices, and every month on the 8th, the merchandise changes! You guys are going to adore it, I just know it. Let me show you just a sampling of what you can get there!

The Luna bustier and skirt from Ingenue are so ladylike and precious! And the sculpt work on the skirt is just oh-so-wonderful! Just look at the detailed pleats! I love it combined with the Changes hair from Elikatira. The band on the hair is color change and ties into a sweet little bow in the back. I’m using a pose by Marukin, which is a new to me store, and I am really loving the poses!

I’ll have more to show you all later, but if this is what Collabor88 is going to be like…I have no doubts that you all are going to be some shopping maniacs!

If I Could Escape

July 23, 2011 Alicia Chenaux

I got totally excited last weekend because I thought it was time for Spruce Up Your Space. I was wrong, though, because it’s THIS WEEKEND!! The theme for SUYS this month is Coastal Cozy and that’s totally a theme I can get down with! Plus, my favorite prefab store, Funky Junk, is in it! Check out the gorgeous house, aptly named My Seaside Escape.

Isn’t it wonderful?? My pictures honestly don’t do it justice! The house has a spacious entry way, large living room area, an extra room that I turned into a kitchen, but could be used as a bedroom or study, and a bedroom upstairs. To get to that one, you have to go outside on the little patio and take the steps up! It also comes with beach grass in the window boxes and some nautical accessories. The pictures I took of the rooms are probably better viewed over on my Flickr where you can see them bigger. I also didn’t get a picture of the entry way because I suck.

My Seaside Escape will be on sale at Funky Junk this weekend for the low low price of $150L. At that price, how could you not buy it??? The house and accessories together come in at 177 prims, and without the accessories, it’s 137 prims.

Spruce Up Your Space begins Saturday July 23rd at 9am SLT.

Most Furniture & Accessories From:

LISP Bazaar
Art Dummy
Artilleri Home
Fucifino
Awesome Blossom
Mudhoney
Second Spaces
Belle Belle

At Last

July 12, 2011 Alicia Chenaux

I will admit, now that most of what I had to do this month is over, I’m getting wedding fever! And you know who else is getting wedding fever? Kouse Singh of Kouse’s Sanctum! She has a good reason, though. She’s getting married on July 16th!! YAY!! To celebrate this, she has a big big sale in the bridal department of her shop!

Kouse really does amazing work, and even if you’re not getting married NOW, you should still go pick up some wedding gowns since they’re only $75L! Yes, that’s right! I’m wearing the Lynet gown in this photo, and it’s just so so pretty!! White is one of my favorite clothing colors to wear but it’s not always easy to find good crisp white in SL. Kouse is amazing with it, though!

So please join me in saying a huge CONGRATULATIONS to Kouse on her upcoming marriage! And then YOU go to Kouse’s Sanctum and shop!

Hit The Resort

June 12, 2011 Alicia Chenaux

My friend Rylan has been vacationing at a resort this past week [so jealous!] and when I tried on this new dress by Acid & Mala, I could just see myself on a lovely tropical resort in it!

The Wild & Chic dress is pretty awesome, especially if you enjoy animal print. I just love the ruffled collar and the gold belt! Plus it made me feel totally tall and lean. I know, that’s easy to fix in SL by changing your shape, but go with me here. :-p This dress is just $75L this weekend for the Taste Of SL, so you will want to hurry on over and grab it quick!

I’m going on the hunt for a cabana boy and a drink with an umbrella in it!

Banana Beauty

June 8, 2011 Alicia Chenaux

Do you ever see a color and it just sparks a visual for you that no matter what you do, you can’t get it out of your head? The new Gloria wedges from Nardcotix in yellow made me think of bananas! I’m craving bananas [or a banana daiquiri] really badly!

[Please don’t look at the line on the wall. I took the photo too big and that always gives me a big line on the picture. It’s NOT the texture of the wall at all!!]

Look at how cute these shoes are! From the side they do look chunky, but if you see them from the back, the wedge is fairly slim. And hey, any shoe that is cute and I don’t have to try to tint to my skin is A-OK in my book! The Gloria wedges come in a bunch of colors, so go pick them up!

I knew immediately that the Blowey dress from The Sea Hole was going to be the one that I wore with these shoes, and as a happy coincidence, this color – Zebra Goldenrod – happens to be on sale for $50L! Score one for ME! This dress is completely sculpted, and comes with an alpha to hide your butt [God, I wish I had a butt alpha in RL!], but if you’re worried about showing the goodies while you rez somewhere, it’s high enough that you can put your favorite strapless bikini or bra top on underneath. It comes with a matching hair flower.

Mmmm…banana daiquiris….

Belle Belle makes me steamy!

January 30, 2011 Alicia Chenaux

Do you love living in luxury? Who doesn’t, am I right? Well, then you must be loving this month’s Spruce Up Your Space as much as I am! This weekend only, you can get this simply wonderful Sauna Zen-sation from Belle Belle for ONLY $150L! Check out the pics!

You know, every time I show something off from Belle Belle, I want to just take a million pictures because Leyla Firefly seriously puts some detail in her work! This thing is really just wonderful and SO serene, with the light tinkling sounds of the wind chimes that are hanging outside. You will need at least 326 prims available to rez it out, but wow, is it worth it! There are several sits in the benches, the steam can be turned on and off, and I seriously want the shower in my real bathroom, because the water pouring down looks like soft rain. This version is PG, but there IS a naughty version of the sauna with Belle Belle‘s “Passion Inside” menu driven poses. You know, if you roll that way. *wink* The adult version is NOT on sale for Spruce Up Your Space.

Remember, you only have until Sunday night to get the Sauna Zen-sation at Belle Belle for $150L. Afterwards it pops up to its regular price of $990L. Go now! Go!

Oh, by the way. I have my Sauna-zensation set up in my Calypso’s Cave which is also from Belle Belle. The sounds of the cave really mesh well with the sauna. Honestly, I’m totally relaxed!
