A Snow Angel

One of my adventures the past couple of days was at the Zombie Popcorn Dark Magic Winter Sim.  I've fallen in love with the whole atmosphere of the build.  The whole setting makes you want to explore seeing what's around the corner.  The greatest thing about the build is each little cottage features a vendor who have an exclusive item for the event.  You betcha I had fun shopping till I dropped.

Styles of Anne ~ So Not June Cleaver

I was taking some friends on a tour of my house here in SL and as I went into the kitchen we got to chatting, when I looked at myself standing behind the stove all I could think of was Leave It To Beaver Mother, June Cleaver.  I certainly don't think if June Cleaver was introduced to today's social norms that she'd even be "June Cleaver."

Styles of Anne ~ A Caged Song Bird

As I was putting this look together all I could think of was that I looked like a jazz club singer.  So I went to another lovely location in Second Life, World's End Garden.

Styles of Anne ~ A Touch of Whimsy

One of the things I love about Second Life is the infinite possibilities of being anyone or anything you want to be.  One of my SL sisters introduced me to a beautiful sim, The Looking Glass.  I really felt like I had walked through Alice's looking glass into a world of whimsy and fantasy.  Come and explore the beautiful sim and see what treasure can be found.

Styles of Anne ~ A Pretty Picnic

What's black, blue and red......A Pretty Picnic!  The gingham print of this dress reminded me of my childhood picnics with my Grandmother.  Meiling Couture's newest dress was inspired by the RL dress worn by Anya Ayoung-Chee, Season 9 Project Runway winner.  This is an easy, breezy everyday look that will make you feel elegant.

Styles of Anne ~ A Touch of Green

This really smart friend of mine says to me "You need to blog more!"  See she's really smart!  Then she says "You have such a good sense of style.  You need to share it with people."  Yup, smart friend!  Then I had an idea!  I'm in the progress of getting a new laptop as the one I'm on is about to die any day now.  You know how it goes when you get a new laptop you have to move everything over and that takes time.  I decided that instead of a new release this week I'm going to do a special sale; Styles of Anne.  Each day I will post a style featuring one of my skins available at either Dulce Secrets Mainstore or at Dulce Secrets Outlet.  The skin will be on sale for 50% off until I post a new style typically 24 hours later.  If there are multiple tones of that skin those will be available at 50% off as well.  I'll include links so if you can duplicate the style youself.

A Touch of Green

The first style is called A Touch of Green.  Although I love fall and the colors of the changing leaves I do miss the lush green of spring and summer. Green is the color of nature and life.  Green symbolizes self-respect and well being. Green is the color of balance. It also means learning, growth and harmony.
