When I first saw this table from Senzafine, I just fell in love with it! It's part of a monthly challenge -- this month's theme being Underwater. Take a close look at the octopus on the tabletop and the tentacle legs! Living near the coast, I am very partial to ocean themed items, and this one is just too awesome! I'm sitting in another Senzafine creation, a heritage seat that was part of the Twisted Hunt. Unfortunately this is no longer available, but may end up part of a Gotcha ... be sure to join the VIP group to keep up with the newest releases & events at Senzafine.
I'm wearing some sweet chino's from The Sea Hole, available in a host of colors. If you have not heard, she has decided to close her business (sigh) and everything in the store is on sale for just $50L! Her texturing work is beautiful and creative ... don't miss picking up some unique clothing before it's gone for good! My shoes are a new release from ArisAris, perfect for the season and great with pants or a skirt. The lovely gem & metal change mesh jewelry set (barely seen in this photo unfortunately) are from Cae, and available at the current Collabor88. A nice little bonus, the rings & bracelets come with left & right versions. I haven't taken them off since I bought them!

I'm wearing a beautiful and unique rigged mesh collar from Lark. This wonderful accessory comes in either Noir or Blanc, and features custom color changes via HUD for the ribbon & blossoms. I couldn't decide if this was an old-fashioned look that has been updated, or a totally modern look with a Victorian flair. A non-rigged version comes in the package, but I love how the rigged mesh moves naturally with your body! You can pick this up at a good savings during this round at The Retreat.
My flawless head from Logo is all mesh. The customization options available can be a bit staggering at first - the complete package includes the skin (all tones), eyes, lashes, ears, head, and tons of makeup and color/style options. I elected not to wear the skin, but paired it up with my favorite Curio skin. This has the effect of a small 'seam' high on my neck, which I cover with a choker, scarf, or collar. The ability to make subtle facial expressions is one of the most awesome aspects of this hybrid avatar!

The Spring Wedding Expo opens tomorrow, heralding the season of love. This is the place to look for anything related to weddings, whether your celebration is small & intimate, or a gala affair. This jewelry set by Designs by Sebastion is a beauty with the use of lustrous pearls and too many seed pearls to count. You have to look closely to appreciate the exquisite fine, detailed work that goes into each piece.
The second set available by Designs by Sebastion is another wonder of intricacy in pearls, this time in a more floral pattern, and one of my personal favorites! I love the delicacy of both of these designs. No matter what style of gown you are wearing, these are sure to compliment. Both photos show a lovely classic wedding ring set that is the perfect symbol of enduring love. Sebastion Dionysus also accepts custom orders!

The Spring Wedding Expo is all about weddings & celebrating love in Second Life. It opens this Saturday, May 11 and runs through the 26th. If you are planning or taking part in a wedding, this is a must attend event!
I'm showcasing a gorgeous set of bridal jewelry from Stars! The necklace features a double strand of pearls, with an interior of delicate gold filigree & diamonds. The set includes matching earrings, bracelets, ring, hair combs & delicate face jewelry. I very much enjoyed wearing & photographing this amazing set -- it's beautifully crafted with loving attention to detail, and sure to draw all eyes to the bride. Stargem Winkler of Stars! accepts custom orders -- if you have something in mind be sure to contact her! She is a pleasure to work with, and a skilled artisan.

I think of my mother each & every day, but the absence of her in my life is brought sharply into focus each Mother's Day. For how she enriched my life, I am forever grateful. If you consider all the things our mother's have done for us throughout our lives, a single day each year to let her know how much we appreciate her seems so very small in comparison. If you are lucky enough to still have your Mom in your life, be it your real or your second life, be sure to do everything you can to let her know how much you love her!
I'm wearing a beautiful set of special edition Stars! jewelry newly created to celebrate moms. The gorgeous locket opens & closes, with space inside to add two special photos of your own. There are two styles available, one with a heart (shown) and one with flowers. Each set is available in either silver or gold, and includes a necklace and earrings. They can be gifted, and are currently on sale for just $60L. What a wonderful gift for your virtual Mom!

A kitchen in SL doesn't serve exactly the same purpose as it does in RL, but it still creates a sense of warmth and comfort. It's one of my favorite places to just sit & visit with a friend, too. My kitchen set is from LISP Bazaar, and includes animations for singles & friends. The table and chairs are beautiful creations from DIGS. I slightly modified the Engman desk and added a cloth covering. The pretty mesh daisies in a jug are one of the many low prim flowers & plants available at XED. My whimsical pear tea set is from Culprit, as well as the fancy puddings sold in a set with a variety of flavors. These are so wonderful, they were 'must haves' the moment I first saw them!
My good friend Alle & I are using one of the many lovely friends poses from Purple Poses. She is wearing some awesome mesh jeans from JANE, and a new release blouse from ColdLogic. I'm wearing a fantastic fitting pair of skinny jeans from Maitreya, and a lovely loose tank from Color.Me.H.O.F, available in many colors at the current FaMESHed. FaMESHed is celebrating their 1 year birthday, and the event this month is extra special -- you don't want to miss it! Both our mesh hairstyles are from Truth -- the entire store is having an unbelievable sale until May 10th! To get into the sim expect to wait in line - everyone is taking advantage of this incredible sale.

After yesterday's new release to Firestorm, I was in for a few surprises when I went to take photographs this morning. Lo and behold, my high resolution shots are now limited to 4000 pixels. Ouch! I'm not thrilled with the quality, and hope this is just a temporary limitation.
I'm sitting on a picnic bench from Immerse that seats six, with a good assortment of animations, and lots of delicious looking food! The food items are separate so you have the option of serving a meal or just using the seating to enjoy the great outdoors with friends. Immerse has changed her group gift policy & is now giving a monthly gift that alternates between furniture and clothing. It's a great time to join while you can still get this exclusive group gift, and all the future ones too!
My casual look includes a beautifully textured tube top that includes Tango appliers. Elymode has these tops and an adorable mesh short skirt available at great savings at the current My Attic. The theme is 'change' and there are some great bargains to be had! My jeans are a classic mesh skinny jean with great fit & detailing from Maitreya. My everyday pony tail is a mesh style from Wasabi Pills.
