summer beach party – Gloria Silverstone

Join us at 3pm SLT today, July 25, 2013 as we christen the launch of the Boats & Bikini Expo sponsored by Oceania Breedables. I’m very excited about this week-long event because the setting is the posh French Rivera. There are tons of top SL creators including the best boat/yacht builders, fashion designers and home decor stores: Chez Moi, beach street, Luas Store, Dead Dollz, Aphrodite Shop and Southern Seas Ships. From July 25-31st there will be a “Treasure Hunt” with prizes at each store. I’m an official blogger for this event and I will give you sneak peek this week of free hunt items and other “finds.” So grab your flips flops, shades, sunscreen and bikinis as we sail off to the Boats & Bikini Expo!

Hi, I’m Gloria, your guide to Boats & Bikinis!

As a California girl from the USA, I was so happy to find Inspired Designs. They had all my beach party needs, including a fab red Weber BBQ complete with burning coals and food, to a colorful beach set with beach umbrella, towels, cooler, picnic basket, french bread and champagne. The beach towel set includes animations for couples and singles, and a color change option from red to blue. When visiting Inspired Design shop at Boat & Bikini Expo check out the many and varied beach items on the wall.

We’re having a heatwave…..a tropical heatwave on the West Coast. I live in the San Francisco Bay Area and highs are expected to hit in the upper 90-105 degree this week. SF sizzles in the 80’s, so you can imagine how steamy it get’s in the upper 90’s. Funny thing is, Gloria is embracing the baking weather while preparing for this weekends first official summer party at our new Hampton’s Beach House. I caught Glory red-handed “testing” a snow cone from Standby Inc (a summer special offered at The Garden), while soaking up the sun in her LacunaInc Summertime in Tangerine jean & tank combo (offered at The Attic.) The Garden is part of The Liaison Collaborative project and it’s a monthly theme home decor event that runs for 3 weeks (June 15-July 10). I love home decor and I’m always on the look out for fun additions to be inspired by. I fell for the Standby Inc Snow Cone machine and the {what’s next} Sandbridge Ice Cream cart. The Poser Pavillion is also organized by The Liaison Collaborative project and has the same theme, Sandbridge (Beach & Natural) as The Garden, filled with fun summer beach poses by top pose makers, available until July 5, 2013. Glory is sporting items from My Attic @ The Deck, a weekly theme event available from June 21- June 30, 2013 (Escapes) with all items from designers 95L.
