Hey everyone, so the grid has some really really really great shopping. It’s so incredibly good, that I’m broke until Thursday. Say whaatttt? You will have to stick with me for the next few days, as I go into my blogging frenzy. But first let’s begin with this picture…
Collabor88 has a spacey theme.. from UFO’s to all things out of this world. It’s a really fun concept, and this is the time to pick up some really fun and funky items. My flying spaceship is from Reign. It’s really meant to be attached to you, so that you’re flying around in a UFO rather than walking. It’s pretty great. I adore it. If you do rez this ship, I do have to warn you.. it is a lot of prims. I would so suggest flying around in it. Then, there’s this panda.. this cute adorable panda. It’s by mishmish. There’s a decor option or a companion. The lamps and tiny flying UFO are from Schendenfreude. It has a hud to change the textures. It’s a wonderful item, if you like a mod style to your decor. I like it because the lamps are extremely unique. I really haven’t seen anything quite like it in my second life shopping travels. The bar sign and table are from second spaces. I used this sign as an inspiration for this photo. I also included this funky chair that pairs great with the lamps. Soy made this ultra funky hip chair. And then my backdrop is from Foxcity. The backdrop has some really bright and beautiful lighting. I always have this special place in my heart for Foxcity. I tend to use their windlighs quite a bit, so I’m a little partial to this brand.
Finally, we absolutely must talk about my out of this world outfit. My bodysuit and cuffs are by the none other Eliavah. She created this futuristic bodysuit. Again, this item is really unique with the glow of the cuffs, to the glowing parts of the bodysuit. The piping can be changed, that lines this outfit. The belt has color and medal options too. There’s so many options for textures, and the fatpack has so many options for piping, bodysuit, and glow–along with the belt and metal. The texture of the bodysuit has a beautiful sheen to it. It’s a really fun piece to have in your inventory for those out of this world parties. And then this hair.. this really cute hair is by monso. My hair has a truly romantic feel. It can be paired with so many different types of outfits from romantic to fashion forward. This wig is definitely a great hairstyle for those hot summer months. Then, finally, there’s this really dainty cute necklace, which is by La Baguette. Before I forget, my pose is by Fashiowl. I pulled this whole picture together with this completely fabulous pose, which is available on the marketplace.
I’ve so enjoyed making this picture. I know there are some incredibly things at collabor88 this round..special and different than your every day items. I hope you too find something special at this months round. Bring family or a friend with you and have a blast.
Before I leave you to the credits, I want to talk about my quote. I’ve been on a kick this past few posts about peace. As some may know, June is pride. I think peace, love, and acceptance are just so important. I think Malcom X said it best with this quote. You really can’t be at peace without freedom. Pride is all about freedom… the freedom to be who you are, because you can’t truly be at peace without being able to be who you are. That’s what this month is all about the freedom of being who you are. I hope everyone is having a happy pride. My Pride picture is yet to come, so stay tuned my loyal followers. I will be back.
Be Kind To One Another.
Cheers,
Violet XOXO

It feels like forever since I wrote my last blog. But here I am, and I am about to talk about one of my favorite events.. Collabor88. Yup, it’s about to come to a close, so you’ll have to hurry to get these items.

This round was one of my favorite rounds. I have a special place in my heart for the desert. Everything this round reminded me of a trip to Nevada that I took.. very long ago. It was the first time.. I went camping. It was the first time that I paddled out to the middle of a lake in a boat. And I got to see the Grand Canyon. And.. it was my first time going to a Native American Reservation. I had a lot of good memories from that trip. Everyone cherishes a memory. That’s just one of mine.

So I have a special place in my heart for events reminding me of this time. Collabor88 closes soon, so you’ll have to get your desert gear before the new round begins. The new round begins on the 8th. You will definitely have to hurry, if you like any of these items. This picture includes so many great second life companies: Phedora, Zenith, Monso, Minimal, Disorderly, Yokai, Half Deer, Random Matter, Kalopsia, and Jian. Whew, there’s a lot of companies in this picture. They all did a fantastic job though. And just look at those adorable puppies. I have ALWAYS wanted a lab, so this purchase was so easy to make. I will probably rez them all the time at my house. They are too cute for words. Also The Arcade just opened. This cute cat playing with a cherry from an ice cream cone is from DISORDERLY. from a gacha machine at The Arcade. I absolutely love it. All these cute little animals makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.

I was talking to a friend inworld. She helped me to remember going to a reservation and feeling an intense calm wash over me. It’s just not something you forget. Then you add this round of collabor88 (which is about to close), it put a smile on my face.. that is for sure. The bright colors, bohemian treasures, wonderful furniture, and cute adorable animals, truly they are worth checking out before the new round begins. If you haven’t gone, please go before it closes. Don’t miss out.. think of this as last call .. like in a bar, but for an event. There were just so many great products this round. Hurry and pick up those last few items.

Normally, I have a serious, thoughtful and insightful quote. I opted for a silly quote from one of my favorite comedians instead… may he rest in peace. Sometimes you just need a little humor in your life. And I definitely need a good laugh. Who doesn’t? Funny moments and happy memories are truly the great parts of life.

You will have to look down below for credits. I hope you all see something that reminds you of a happy memory or find something that makes you laugh.

Be Kind To One Another

cheers,

Violet XOXO
