It's the middle of summer, and being the total beach girl that I am, I figured the best way to celebrate summer in Second Life® was to visit some of the most famous beaches on the grid. So, I asked my friends on Plurk what their favorites are, and I got a long list of names. I decided to feature the following four because I felt each of them had its own charm.

Chic Management celebrated their one year anniversary in style with designers across the grid creating exclusives for the event. Each designer created an item in the “chic” theme. This month’s column features looks from the event.

These pieces were inspired by recent real life Resort collections, with lots of minimalism, and menswear inspired pieces. I made a “mini collection” of my own using some of my favorite pieces, and really aimed to make the looks cohesive.

After a bit of a Second Life® break, I found myself needing to get back into the swing of things again. As a big fan of hunts, what better way to catch up on all the new stores and the latest releases than by participating in all the fabulous hunts like MENStuff, Zombiepopcorn and the many others SL™ has to offer.
