#26 Midnight Stroll at Margarita Beach

Hello Lovelies 😊  So this was a rather lovely find tonight.  Feeling I needed a tropical location to match the vibe of my shirt, Margarita Beach caught my eye and did not disappoint.  So much love has gone into the creation of this place.  I am writing this while sat in the outdoors bar, watching the mist over the trees and listening to the tropical sounds all around me.  You instantly feel relaxed here.  I love that each level brings you something new to explore and encourages you to pause and relax.  There are lots of little romantic areas tucked away that are perfect for couples.  Tropical Gardens, spectacular beach, harbor and so much more, I urge you to come visit!  Do not miss the caves!  Loved them.

What I Am Wearing:

Today I am wearing this wonderful, bold, tropical slim fitting shirt from Harambee Gwassi - Kenya Charity Shop  which is part of a pair (with the other shirt being a solid blue) made to fit Signature, Slink, Adin, Gamit, Onupup, Fitmesh Classic and worn here on Belleza Jake.  These are EXCLUSIVE to the Cheeky Monkey Hunt 'All Male - Spring 4' Hunt until the end of March.  I am also wearing this rather fancy Steam Punk Watch from ::REA:: which comes in four colors, I am wearing the gold version.  They are copy, resizable, unisex and actual keep the correct time!  Definitely a statement piece worth adding to your collection and only 1L in the All Male Spring Hunt!

 

#24 Midnight in Paris

Hello Lovelies 😊.  My goodness it's been like an eternity since I had a chance to relax and blog and I have missed it.  Christmas was the usual chaos of creating for Events and January was very cold here in the UK, so I have been hibernating.

So my first proper venture out to explore in 2025 was a magical place called 'Midnight in Paris' (seriously needs to be the name of a film!).  Arriving at the Metro you walk out into a city like no other.  Rain falling hard with the lights of the city bouncing in the puddles beneath your feet.  A thunderstorm grumbling in the distance.  You soak up the atmosphere as you take the bridge over the River Seine.  The Eiffel Tower comes into view.  One thing I was so happy to see here was the Eiffel Tower twinkling with lights, just as it does in the real world at the top of every hour (although you can capture this 24/7 in the SL world).  I have never found another place in SL that added this very special detail.  It brings back very special memories for me.  So I gazed for a while remembering before seeing what else there is to explore here.  Take time to wander the bistros and bars, the book stalls by the river.  It is a little peace of heaven.

What I Am Wearing:

Peeps Dinkies have bought out a gorgeous 'Sweetheart' range for this Valentine's Day.  I am wearing the 'Sweetheart Couples Pajamas Pink' (cos who says you can't wander Paris at night in your PJ's!) which has BOM pants and top.  I love the cozy fabric detail with simple polka dots on the pants and so many cuteee hearts on the top.  These are just 1L in the current Cheeky Monkey Hunt 'Love is All You Need 5'.  If you want to buy more of the range, there is also a similar Boy Outfit for 25L or a super cute Dress for 50L, both being EXCLUSIVE to the Hunt!

 

#16 BlossomVale in Venice

 

Today I was in the mood for a new adventure and went to the trusty Destinations Guide to see what was new in the world of Second Life.  BlossomVale of Venice immediately jumped off the page to me as the place to go!  I loveeee Italy and could not resist exploring Venice in SL.

BloomsVale has been beautifully thought out in its planning and whimsical feel as you wander through the streets and along the canals filled with gondola's.  There is so much detail here that I feel multiple visits you could always find something new to see.  There is a stunning wedding venue for elopements and a fabulous stage for live performances.  I joined the group inworld in hopes of catching a performance here in the future.  I finished my trip this time with a relaxing balloon ride over the city. 

What I Am Wearing:  GHOSTRAVEN PROFESSIONAL ATTIRE DINKIES have created this gorgeous Blue Floral Outfit which just screams perfect for Spring!  I love the sharp clarity of the blue floral pattern on the shirt and the bottoms come as both shorts and trousers, with or without a belt.  I feel very smart but casual and this was just such a perfect look for Venice.  I am also wearing [Peeps] Dinkie Deck Shoes which I likely will live in most the spring and summer!  You can find the GPA Blue Floral Outfit EXCLUSIVE to the Cheeky Monkey Hunt this month, 'A Few Of Our Favorite Things 3' Hunt along with Human versions too.  Don't miss it!

 

#15 Elvion

 

Today I am debuting my Dinkie, Tootsie to my Blog.  Last year I decided I wanted to make a Dinkie that looked similar my RL cat Tootsie and being a Dinkie bought a whole new joy to my Second Life.  

Today's venture took me to the beautiful town of Elvion - Blackbird Edition which is a lush, green land filled with beautiful scenery and landscapes to explore.  There are forest trails, a cozy Harbor and so much more to see.  Perfect for a peaceful nature walk or somewhere to venture as a couple.  My personal highlight was sat listening to the waves crashing near the Windmill which felt very soothing.

What I Am Wearing:  I just had to break out my crown to complete this look today!  This beautiful waistcoat outfit by GHOSTRAVEN PROFESSIONAL ATTIRE DINKIES looks very high fashion, and there is a human version too!  There is several ways you can dress this outfit with alternative trousers, black shirt, bow tie and more to personalize it to your needs.  You can find all the versions (including a Dinkie matching gown) EXCLUSIVE to the Cheeky Monkey 'Hollywood Glamour 2' Hunt until the end of April.  Do not miss it!
