the decision

💜

A golden sparkle blow kiss for you all. And a picture to say sorry, but yes it's good to be free for me.

During my vacation i made for myself the decision to take a much longer time without blogging. In my free time hanging around in sl i realized how good it is to do just that. Enjoying also what is in my inventory. I got so much from sponsors and i got a lot of free things. Showing you good quality free items was one of my purposes. Now the time has come to enjoy what i have. The decision was not easy to make after so many years of blogging. I did it with so much pleasure. I want say thanks to all those who followed me many years. Also a huge thanks to my sponsors. And a thanks to my helpers through the years: Laura, Dancer for many tips. Dancer, Laura, Soraya, Mihaly, Anda, José and Chi. They sometimes joined me at the pictures. 

It might be possible that after a time i will make some blog posts again with free items. May be i am going to miss blogging too much. But i will not blog on a regular basis. Just for the pure enjoyment to make a blog post and pictures. 

For those who want know what i am wearing: a skin from 7 Deadly s[K]ins of course, a top from Lunar ( part of a set with bra and jacket), maxi skirt from Blueberry, hair - Mina (Farah), feather necklace - Silvery K (gacha); loved necklace - Earthstones, golden dust- ChicChica

Bye bye, may you all be well, be happy, be peaceful and stay as healthy as possible, Nic

road trip

😊

Click small picture to enlarge

A pause during the road trip. They found an old shed. And had a lunch there, sitting on the broken old car. There was an owl in the shed. So tame. José was laughing when he came suddenly sitting on his leg.
Again we show you free male items. Are we going to be a good free male blog? I hope so. José is always eager to show free male stuff. Nic is the subtle criticaster when he is combining a outfit.Saying:  "that pokes through", "colors not combine". "Hair need be made larger". "Color of the hair must fit the colors". "Not suddenly purple hair!". "Glasses need be perfectly fitting". Longtime he is standing in the sandbox in a free underpants,  unpacking and showing what he found. Most items are from the anniversary of the Man Cave. We found the short in the Happy Weekend Sale. This one however is in the fatpack. In the sale are the plain color shorts.
Nic is showing items from the Sense Event. The eye make-up from StunnerOriginals, hair from [Letituier] glasses from JUMO originals and the picknick items from DUST, in a gacha.
Nic's skin is skin Pippi from 7 Deadly s[K]ins, a release at Salon 52. The backpack from Tetra you can find at this round of Collabor88. The Road trip dress is a gift from :::UNA::: at Shop&Hop. The drink is from the lucky boards at Candy Crunchers. The boots are from the Fifty Linden Friday Even  at #Empire. They have also another sort in that sale. The WillowTwig chair from Kazza  you can find at the 60 linden Happy Weekend sale. Come with a color hud.
The scene is made in the shed backdrop from LOVE Home and Furniture. Comes with the stump with vintage radio. In the car are many poses.

I bet José had his laptop and phone in his back pack. He is such a workaholic! A walk with Nic he likes, but you will never know what all colleagues will say. Am i right José? Thanks for your help again.
A blog post with José today. Nic and José are showing you many gifts from the second anniversary of the Access event. José was flabbergasted. Never visited an event with so many male gifts. Big compliments to the organizers of Access and the generous designers.

In the credits you can find all back. Worth an extra mention is the super gift from Kazza. The wooden path with the trees, lanterns, grasses and plants. It's a rezzer. I used the path two times and could make a nice trail around the water. The package contains also a rezzer for all sorts of wooden path pieces. For the water i used a goldfish pond  from TLC animals.
The backpack  comes in plain and textured versions. The sticker on the plain version you can choose with a hud. The boots are unsisex. They come with a super color/texture hud. For a closer look at Nic's ring and the watch. See below.
I love the jeans from Vagrant. With the color hud you can change the color of the tapes and belt. The jeans also has gems and sparkles. And that all for 60ld /happy weekend sale in the main shop. Gorgeous!
With this blog post and the blog post before this one, i am happy i could show you again many gifts. That was/ and still will be the core of this blog. Many gifts will follow in other blog posts because the 19th of June started the Shop&Hop Event, because of SL17B. The birthday of SL. Yes already 17 years. At Shop&Hop you can grab always many gifts and the shops have sales items. A list of all the shops and slurls here

"I want your strawberry and although i had already an ice cream, i also want a bit of your cream".
"Ok you will get it" he says "or do you want me to buy another one for you?  Chi came at a good moment online to help me with this blog post.
We use poses from the bar stool & table set from{ LaLou}, available at FaMESHed X., but we adjusted the couple pose so that we could show the clothes.
{LaLou} is specialized in erotic furniture. The table and chairs have many animations ( solo/couple/ adult/BDSM ). The designer was making just a bar stool and table for two avatars, but during the work she wanted to make it for up to 4 persons with an easy swap between the couples. It is a linked set, the chairs are not separate from the table, as it would mess up all animation positions. A very good set!

This morning i went early to Access. It's their second anniversary and you can grab lots of presents. Also for males in the middle of the event a lot of presents. Nic walked more then an hour there. Sometimes also unpacking if possible. First Nic was wearing a dress in blue from the event with heels, but then i opened a presents with these boots, ambush sneakers. A gift in many colors. Then i remembered the nice top i already unpacked and the idea for a more sportive blog post was born. The jacket is from a set from Lunar. Comes with a tank top and bralette. The jacket comes in two width versions. I am using the wide Freya version.
Other gifts are: the two backdrops, the leaf plant, octopus ice cream, the rings, the shades, the headband and the necklace. The rings come in silver and gold. The headband has a color hud. The shades come with a color hud for the little rhinestones. The boots come in many different colors. The backdrop comes with and without lights.

Chi is wearing a shirt and pants from Hoorenbeek. You can buy the shirt in a pack with more models in several colors. For several mesh bodies but also for the classic body.

Grasp bird is the name of a qigong animation. The qigong animation is included in the round rug with all sorts of qi gong animations and meditation poses. It's in a gift from Naughtybits for the Stay at Home club. I unlinked the gift and linked the rug and the invisible prim with the animations to use it separate. The gift is a nice Zen garden. You can see the Zen Garden a bit to the left at the third picture. You still can grab all sort of presents at the page of the Stay at Home club ( here ). We still need stay at home most of the time. Although more and more rules are getting looser. Trips and vacations are more possible in my country.
In the decor you can see lounge chairs from DJ/SF A new release at The Cosmopolitans Sales Room. Available in several texture/colors. Adult or PG. The bamboo screens and bamboo are in a release from Simply Shelby at The Liaison Collaborative this month.
The coffee and croissants on the table are gifts for the Stay at Home club from BHD
Nic went to a lodge to relax. She took her new parrots with her. A release from TLC Animals. Several sorts you can buy. Every package has a companion parrot, a flying one, a one on a stand and more. They can make noise if you want and the they are animated. Super all.
