Loving this round of The Arcade!! I know every time I'm excited but this one is just so very special! I can't wait for everyone to enjoy the fun and festive finds at the December edition.The event opens up at midnight December 1, 2014.

[summer]

Warm days are here and it's all about getting outside.  Traveling to the Farmer's Market is one of my favorite things to do in Summer.  You can hop on your bike and pick up some locally grown veggies and homemade jams.The ARCADE is filled with fabulous sets that are perfect for putting together your own little market.

The ARCADE is one of my favorite events in Second Life, along with probably everyone else. I really think people will flip out for this round. It seems everyone keeps just getting BETTER!!

There is a little over a week left on the May '14 Collabor88.  The vintage Milkshakes and Turntables theme was fabulous and I hope you've nabbed all the great bargains!

As always I'm sharing some music, a little taste of SUMMER from Calvin Harris.

This round is filled with some super cute finds, and I couldn't help but fall in love with some of the more springy pieces. If only Spring would peek into real life! Seems Winter is never ending here.

The Arcade [Roar]

Happy Labor Day Weekend! Here in the US, we get to enjoy a long and fabulous end of summer weekend.  It turned out perfectly for this year's Arcade. Since I will have off Monday,  I traveled down to the boardwalk to showcase some more finds!

Blogging for The Arcade for the past year has been a tremendous joy! It's an honor to be a part of such a fabulous event. Each round tops the last and that's not an easy task. Thank  you to all of the designers and the Arcade team who work so tirelessly to bring us all something special. Happy Birthday!
  

Gotta love the awesome boom box from The Secret Store! Flashback 80s style and fabulous.  It's blaring one of my new favorite tunes, ROAR, in honor of my rockin' Le Tigre top from Emery!

The Arcade [Photobooth]

As the summer's ending and we pack away our sundresses, it's time for one last adventure on the boardwalk.  The Arcade opens Sunday, September 1st and soon practically all of Second Life® will be knocking each over to join in the gacha fun!

Just when you think there is no topping the last edition, the fabulous team at The Arcade tops themselves!  This month's event will bring some fabulous finds that will delight and amaze. I fell in love with the Worry Dolls from VCO. As a child, I had a collection of dolls that I stored in a little pouch. Every night when I went to bed I would tell the little dolls my worry and tuck under my pillow. By morning the worries I had would always be gone.

I had to make a post in honor of my little worry dolls! So happy this time they are out from under the pillow and having fun with me today at The Arcade.

The Arcade [Bunny]

Happy Birthday to The Arcade!  September 1st marks one full year of gacha fever in Second Life®. This round is phenomenal and I'm really excited to be able to share the scoop with you all. My intro post for this round is all about celebrating the fabulous history with a mix of finds from all of the events last year and exclusive previews of the upcoming edition.

Well I must say I fell head over heels in love with the bunny ears from Half Deer! The one I am wearing is the rare Origami from the September edition. The full collection is adorable but the rare ones are truly special. I really think they will be an inspiration in each of my posts for this round.

[Asian] ARCADE

Back again with MORE from The ARCADE!  Asian influences were all over the runways this season and it seems inspiration crept into our Arcade designers. I'm absolutely in love with LeeZu's curtains, they are the perfect backdrop for photos and a perfect edition to any home.  She made them modifiable so you can just about fit anywhere!

 Every time I think Glam Affair has outdone themselves, they release something WOW!  I am loving the new headpiece and I don't think I'll be taking this off anytime soon.  I totally played with mixing patterns with the japanese print on the curtains, the leopard fan and polka dots on the suitcase. Randomly delicious!

One of the cutest finds this round are the Puss Pillows from NX-Nardcotix! They are huggable and adorable to boot! The sugar skull inspired kitteh is my FAV! You'll definitely want to collect them all!

[Insectia]

I feel like shouting from the rooftops... "The Arcade is coming, The Arcade is coming!!"  It's one of my most favorite events in SL. It's unique and special as it only comes around four times a year!  Just in time for spring, The Arcade opens March 1, 2013.

The designers this round are beyond phenomenal, there is really something for everyone! One of my favs and most creative designers, Faint Paulse of Ladies Who Lunch created the most inventive collection of mechanical fantastical insects. A photo doesn't really do them justice as most have moving and illuminated parts.  You must check out Thalia Heckroth's wonderful machinima that captures their unique beauty - HERE!

The Arcade opens FRIDAY!! Until then stay tuned! I'll be one of the very honored bloggers sharing exclusive scoops on what is to come.

Happy Arcade Week!

[Suited]

Think a suit is boring and dull? Then you need to check out the chic womenswear suits at Mutresse.  There is a wide color selection and it's a great way to add a little more posh to your wardrobe!

Pairing shirts with mesh jackets is not always an easy task, but I found the most amazing dress from Kunglers that fit perfectly under the jacket. The animalistic print with hints of metallics really amps up the style.

I went shopping at Peqe the other day and found the most amazing clutch in a little gacha machine. For 25L a play you can't beat this chic peacock influenced clutch!

Happy Shopping!

[Sound]system

I'm still in love with the Tee*fy Radios at The ARCADE. Retro fabulousness! Today mine is pumping out vintage punk/ska... "Sound system going to bring me back up, it's the one thing I can depend on!!" - 'Sound System' by Operation Ivy

 Monso released the most amazing new combat boots for Collabor88, and I happily danced around with all the newness. The red leather is perfect to make any outfit pop. With versions for men and women, they're sure to make the masses very happy!

Don't forget to stop by Limited Bazaar at Euphoria this weekend before the limited edition pieces disappear. I really loved this tie tank from CIA. Simply awesome!  Oh and don't forget the With Love Hunt!! It's one of my favorite yearly traditions in SL, and at 10L this Kazakh hat from [sYs] is a mesh marvel!

Another great find at Collabor88 is the new Loire hair from Tableau Vivant. I'm really loving this long flowy style.  I'm not usually a long hair fan but these are very well made, with layered pieces over top of each other but still a straight style with body.

Happy Weekend Shopping!

Love, Vi

First up is the new Fall collection from Molichino! You will adore the chic mesh styles of Aurelia Chauveau. I love her designs - they all fit my style to a TEE! Super chic and stylish!



Well I've fallen in love recently...her name is FAITH.  The newest release from Hart Larsson of [PXL] Creations. Highly detailed, soft, and stunning! The skin tone options range from pale (above) to a very lovely deep chocolate. There is a freebie currently available for all group members! Speaking of freebie's and group gifts... Truth Hawks of Truth has sent the most delicious group gift out! A super short mesh style that I'm totally in love with!



If you've been hiding under a rock, you may not have heard of The Arcade Gacha event happening now at The Grove. The event is in this whimsical boardwalk build filled with the most amazing group of designers! Tons of great items ranging from 25L - 100L a play. I went a bit nuts on the Milk Motion studded clutch.  I think I have every color!!
