Summer Candy

The latest creation by b[ELLE] made me think of summer candy — the candy necklaces, dots stuck on paper and strips of sugary gel.

The Sweethearts Dress comes with a HUD and all of the patterns are unique and fun. I had a hard time choosing my favorite, but the 3D look on the hearts print really stands out.

Born to be Mild

I’m a total klutz in both worlds. Every time I try to fly or drive in SL, I run into things. But this scooter was too cute–and cheap– to pass up. And I can stand still and pose on it!

Shark!

I found this Great White shark at JIAN’s Saturday sale. He is so cute I just had to take him for a swim!

I’m staring into space thinking about napping. Napping while rocking in a boat is the best. When I saw this Nap Boat by Brocante on the Fifty Linden Friday sale, I knew it was meant for me. There are single and cuddle poses. There is also a pool boat version for those who want to just float.

Ballet Magic

Today Mellwynn showed me one of her favorite places, a ballet studio. After we did some dancing, I went back home to do more unpacking. I came across this gown by Siss Boom and got sidetracked–of course! The skirt swirls beautifully while dancing.

BTW–the colors in the background were all done with in-world lighting with just hint of pink overlay in Photoshop. I don’t think I could repeat the accidental magic.
