Since this post was 2 weeks in the making, I figured that I will make it twice as nice by telling you about some fantastic freebies and perhaps the most beautiful place I have seen in all my time in SL.
First the freebies, when I happened upon the Heart Cupcakes tent in the remains of the goings on at the Gossip Girl sim not too long ago, I had no idea what I had found. I got the great freebies there and upon looking around noticed that all the cute dresses there were only 100L each so I decided to splurge and get one. then I grabbed a landmark and headed to the main store on the Popfuzz sim.
There were even more freebie dresses there and a gorgeous shop. They had many affordable options for the fashionista on a budget. Lingerie (45-100L), Separates (15-25L) on back wall, and loads of beautiful dresses (50-150L) most for 50L. Also if you are a fan of the baby doll dress you will LOVE this place. Also had noticed there that all the dresses I saw in the tent at that time are now 50L. They also had some skins (50-800L) and Shapes (350L). When I was there I went to have a look around to see if there were any places for cool pics and I found a tunnel that led underground I was not sure what I would find, but to my surprise there were even more great freebies there and many other things that seemed to be 25L and under. I thought that I had died and gone to freebie fashionista heaven. There were more freebies!!! Dresses, tops, pants, skins and even a little tastefully done lingerie. You simply must check out this place. For those lucky chair aficionados there is a chair locator board. Along with the things from Mimi Coral there were many things from Popfuzz Bamboo as well, who has a place with many cute things next door .
Now onto my other find, a cool place to explore and hang out. All the pics in this post were snapped at Romantic Joy. This place has to be the most beautiful place I have seen in all my time in sl. You can tell from the name that it would be a great place to take someone special but I was surprised to see that there were things to do for anyone. It would be as great a place to go if you were getting to know someone better or just wanted some quiet reflective time alone.
Romantic Joy is 44,000 sqm of land brimming with natural beauty and offers visitors many things to do and see. In the enchanted woods there is a couples hammock and a nice gazebo that has a intimate dinner, dancing and even a cuddle rug. The tree house had many beautiful views, a candle lit dinner with an great view of the castle, dancing and kisses. There are also many places just to sit and talk if you are getting to know someone better. In addition to that there is a very friendly parrot there you should talk to. If you are in more of a social mood then go to the bar for a drink or a round of pool with a friend. Outside there are places to sit and enjoy the scenery. There is even a spot where you can pet a kitten and relax. As if that were not enough there is a lovers lane, church and several places to dance. One of the places is high on a cloud with snow and a rainbow. Needless to say there are nice spots for couples and people on their own nestled all over the park, most with spectacular views of the sunset and moon. I have been there several times and collectively spent several hours there and I still believe that there is even more to see. This is also a great place to meet someone new. I actually met Chicco , my now good friend and helpful model in 1st pic.
If you love it here like I do and never want to leave then, if you have the linden you never have to. Romantic Joy now offers rentals or if you have your own land some very nice prefabs. At 3000/week for 1200 prim it is not within reach for everyone but well worth every linden. I was afforded a tour of one of the rentals by the gracious owner for Romantic Joy, Aniine Sustano. The house was gorgeous with beautiful and detailed textures . So spacious and inviting. Also there is a secret room for those times when you want to steal a little time with your lover or get away. This lovely gem is situated on almost a half of sim, outside of the house there is a large yard, small dance floor and lovely gardens . A lot for the linden. The same attention to detail and natural beauty was lavished on the house and grounds as the rest of the park.
I hope that this post was worth the wait and I truly hope that you will check these places out. I would like to thank Mimi Coral of Heart Cupcakes, Popfuzz Bamboo of Popfuzz and Aniine Sustano of Romantic Joy. I would also like to thank my dashing male models Chiccocecco Boa (1st pic) and Richie Stringfellow(last pic)

Yumminess at *Icing*
No matter what kind of girl you are there are times when you will need something to wear that will make you feel pretty and feminine. For those times you will find what you need at Icing. I absolutely love this place!! Miko Omegamu's designs are wonderful and have a classic beauty about them. They are soft and feminine with out being too fussy. It is the sweet simplicity of the designs that makes the things that I have from here among my favorites.
Her beautiful creations range from the finest evening gown to fun casual wear. The prices range from $195L-$250L. The one dress that was $350L was Miss Hathaway, that was inspired by the beautiful red gown that Anne Hathaway wore to the Oscars. It is truly breathtaking with a beautiful spray of roses across the chest and other lovely details.
There are currently 4 fantastic dresses you can get. La Vie Boheme is a skirt set that has a tank top and a flowing skirt, perfect for casual affairs. Petite Baiser and Night Mist are beautiful and classic designs . The same could be said for the latest group freebie-Poppy Love. In addition to those there are also some cute shoes and some other items available for free there. I always advise others to join her group as she is generous and has some great group gifts.
This lovely shop is located at Mischief Cove, it is like an old-fashioned board walk. Directly out front you can get a hot dog from a street vendor or get a coffee treat from Mischief Mocha. If that is not to your liking there is an area inside the store with cupcakes and tea. It is very charming. Get by there and get some of the finest freebies available in all of sl in my humble opinion.
When you tp in you will be at the front door, if you look straight ahead you will see the cabinet with all the goodies on display.
Thanks Miko Omegamu

Orange Watersilk Kimono by Orchid Dream
Today I picked up the Orchid Dreams Gift Box 2/18/08. It contained this lovely Orange Watersilk Kimono and also included the Simplicity Maiko hair!! While I was there to pick up this gift I had a look around. On the sim there was a small house with a place to sit and play tic-tac-toe with a friend. There is a lovely bridge where you can feed the ducks. If you are looking to get away from it all there is also a quiet place on the top of the hill to meditate and reflect on things when you need to.
Orange Watersilk Kimono and Simplicity Maiko hair both by Orchid Dreams
Here are a few others shots of this great sim and lovely gift from
.Also soon to open Kimono Museum of SL!!! I am looking forward to seeing it!! Orchid Dreams gives gifts often so be sure to check back regularly.
Thanks to Emeriselle Theas.
