29/09/2016 - The girl in black

Hello everyone! I'm going back to RL work in a few days, and there's a chance that blog will once again disappear into oblivion... For that, I am sorry. But please keep following it, I'll try and post when I can.

My outfit today doesn't actually reflect my mood at the thought of going back to work, as I am in fact quite happy to get back on tracks with my first life.

21/09/2016 - Channeling my inner Nadj

Nadj is a RL friend of mine. She has green hair, loves all things octopusses, and is generally quite awesome. When I was sorting through the ever dreaded "objects" folder the other day, I found the Octo-tights Alaskametro released last year for Supa-8, and I just had to set up an outfit around them.

13/09/2016 - Autumn is coming...

I'm not a summer girl. My favourite seasons are spring and autumn, and even though it's still a bit early in the season, I yearn for quiet evenings and pumpkin spice lattes (that I'll have to make myself, as there's not Starbuck anywhere near)

12/09/2016 - Paper Rabbit

Hello!

When I was telling you I make 2 exceptions to my exclusiveness with skins, Paper Rabbit was one of the designers I was talking about. I don't know if you know that, but Helyanwe Vindaloo, the awesome hair creator behind Doe (previously known as Ploom, previously known as Deviant Kitties - yes, I've been in SL that long) also makes skins. Back when I was wearing a system head, I bought Willow, a lovely drawn skin, and then I was sad because I couldn't wear it anymore on my head. But now there are appliers so yay!

I'm showing you below a few examples of Willow on Yael's Logo head, then on Rose's Lelutka head.




When you buy the skin, you choose your skin tone among a dozen of them, and get a hud that allows you to pick a brow colour (and there's even a no brow option, I've been told it's a very useful feature) and a whole lot of eye make up, lipstick and lipgloss tones.




Head to Paper Rabbit to grab Willow!

10/09/2016 - Once upon a time I was a Fae

... and once in a while I let my inner fae out, just for the sake of it (and a pretty picture).
Like today, a greyish saturday morning, when I woke up way too early and even the cats are still sleeping, I feel a little nostalgia. I'd like to dedicate today's post to a few people who probably won't read it (and some who will), my crew from the sim-that-must-not-be-named. I miss you all.

Anyway, enough dwelling on the past, I dug up in my inventory for this one, and apart from the shoes and skin, nothing is even remotely recent, and some things may not even be available anymore. Still, credits as usual to be found after the picture.

09/09/2016 - Don't leave without me.

Hello!

I made a pretty picture and thought I'd show you. I finally got back to C88 to grab the gorgeous lingerie set by The Secret Store, because I woke up thinking about it. Also, today's Friday (yay!) and time for FLF. There are a lot of pretty things, but I chose the Elikatira hair.

08/09/2016 - C88!

Oh hello there! I went into C88 with a low budget today, so I grabbed all the demos, got home, tried everything, and managed to put together a nice outf with only 4 new items. I wish I could have spent more l$, because this round is particularly nice, but oh well, I'm happy with what I have, so there's that.

As far as skins are concerned, I'm very faithful. I've pretty much always worn the same designer, but once in a while, I make an exception, with 2 others that I like very much. Glam Affair is one of them, and her Lelutka applier skin at Collabor 88 is simply stunning.


That sexy suit is from Addams, and I confess, it wasn't the first piece of clothing I had my eyes on, but when I tried the demo I just had to have it. The mesh for the Maitreya body is simply flawless, no matter how I move, and the hardest part was to choose just one colour. It comes with the sexy bra that you can change the texture of, or choose not to show.

Talking about colour, I did fiddle a bit with the gorgeous shoes from Mutresse, to have them match the suit, but here again, the mesh is perfect, the design gorgeous, and for such a deal! Only 188l$ for the shoes, they come with a HUD with billions of different possibilities (trust me, I counted, twice).

04/09/2016 Who's Bad?

Hello!

I usually avoid gachas. They take all my money and I end up with a bunch of things I don't need and not the one thing I wanted. But I also usually make an exception with Clawtooth hair, because I don't need the rare, just the brunettes pack, and I tend to get lucky.

I went by the Dilly Dolls store today, because the Twisted Hunt has started and she had that gorgeous mesh corset out. I'm not one to show my boobies so I'm wearing a tank top layer from Izzie's underneath.

02/09/2016 - September blues

Hello!

I got a dog.

This morning I was hopping from store to store for Fifty Linden Fridays, and if you know me at all, you know I'm not into home decor. I mean I love what some people make in SL, but my home is basically two boxes in the sky with a pose stand in one, and what could probably qualify as a living room in the other.

So when I get some thing that doesn't get attached to my doll, it had better be very nice and very low li. I was the first surprised to get that ceramic dog :


That thing looked so sad on the front porch of the store, I just had to give it a home.
It has the lyrics to a song I love printed on it.

"If you're going to San Francisco
Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair
If you're going to San Francisco
You're gonna meet some gentle people there"


Anyway. I got a dog.
