Spring Cleaning


I’ve been gone for FAR TOO LONG, you guys.  My last entry was on the 8th of this month and the month (*gasps*) is coming to an end.  Admittedly, I’ve never really been a constant or prolific blogger; I’m a graduate student and I have tons of work to do (have a job, a b/f and a whole lot of other things to juggle).  Sometimes I wonder in awe how other bloggers manage to pull out an entry every single day (nosy me, huh?).  Blah.

Anywhoo, today is the first time I’ve logged into SecondLife long enough to produce an entry.  I’ve been logging on every now and then to bug owners of ViViG to release their products already, but other than that, not so much.  The brand has apparently seen a lot of delays and I still don’t know when they’ll release their dang skins. LOL.

While waiting for that to happen, I’m in the process of cleaning out my inventory; I haven’t cleaned it in a long time. I’ve done some sorting in the past, but I’ve never gone through everything to see if things were worthy of being kept.  I don’t have ALOT of items…  Just a little over the 20k mark (…is that alot?)  But my inventory is still very difficult to sort through.  I need to be careful while cleaning though; I remember one incident in which I tried cleaning and ended up deleting a folder of all my good lingerie (ARGH).

Since I haven’t done some shopping in a while, I thought I’d whip up a beach look with items I’ve found while cleaning; I definitely WON’T be getting rid of those items any time soon.

Like me, you’re probably guilty of buying things that you’ve only worn once or twice and then never bothered to look at/wear again.   Well, I’m here to tell you that YOU CAN wear these items again.  Dig deep in your inventory and revive the items with new styling!

If you’ve been on SecondLife as long as I have, some of these items may look familiar to you and you might even have them. Some of the items featured here have been discontinued or are just unavailable, but I’m sure if you get a hold of some of the designers, they’d help you out.

Me Like It…. Right There

I kept it really cute and simple with a Mashooka dress. It’s really spring-oriented.  You’d also be glad to know that it was free subscribo gift.  :)

I also can’t stop listening to this new release from former Pussycat Doll lead singer Nicole Scherzinger; it’s definitely a spring/summer hit.  The song has already gotten me in the mood for the beach.  Can’t wait!!
