A Kook-y 'Kini Adventure

Summer's in full swing, which means that 'kinis are everywhere on the grid. I fell in love with this shiny sky blue one by Mimikri at the ongoing Dressing Room sale + the pareo wrap that came with it. A tousled, summery hair + some free color change flip-flops by In Her Shoes + I was ready for some waterpark fun.
Here's me rockin' a li'l pose at the Kook waterpark. -- The Kook build is really striking, with lots of evocative spaces for shooting against a water background (think lonely pieces of asphalt floating in the ocean, abandoned for no reason). -- Shopping tip: this SIM is also home to the stunning Crownling furniture store, a must-visit for any Y's House fans (i.e., cuter anis + better builds than usual; see the pic in the Styling Credits below for just 1 couples ani example).

This 'kini put me in a SL explorer mood, so I grabbed Gavin to poke around the rest of the Kook SIM. Here we were popping into the beautiful Regenboog sky home, which was filled with sunlight streaming thruout this pretty work studio. -- This was me having a nice li'l sulk at the worktable. Heh.
Back on the ground, we found a modern glass home floating in the ocean. This thing was way minimalist: only a couple of chairs, some falling rain + a single painting were inside. (That's us teeny weenies inside, gazing at the art).
We also found a giant turntable, just hangin' out in the sea for no reason. A lone wooden stool was handily situated for some quiet reflection. (You could also buy that random box next to me for free).
Finally, some chillaxin' with our good friend + fellow SLexy crew member Rene Caerndow back at her place. We were actually lucky to catch her between gigs (Rene has been a busy bee, what with all the art gallery owning + clothes making + all). -- As you can see, we ladies put Gavin straight to work with the shopping bags. He was a good sport about it tho'.
A huge *mwuahs* to my girl Nina Fessbeinder for blogging the eye-popping Kook build (you rock gf!) SL explorer love + fashionista kisses to all!
