Sunny Sunday.

Hello everyone, happy Sunday! Since I have a few days off work, I have a little time to blog, and I'm happy to show you a few pretty things that I got these past few days. First off, Evie released a while ago a lovely mesh outfit for Zodiac, called Kasia, that I had shown here. Since it was absolutely gorgeous, she decided to release more colors, and Petite versions. If you want my opinion, that's a brilliant idea.  As you can see below on the top right (normal) and bottom left (Petite), Evie puts as much care into the details for the Petite avis as she does for the taller ones. I've matched the outfits with the Sabina jewelry set from Krystal, another wonder of prim work, with tiny details and color change gems.

Of course I had to go buy another Petite avi, and I found out Al Vulo recently released a new one, called Polly II. I love the soft skin and overall adorable look of these new Petites! The hair my Petite avi is wearing is a group gift from Alice Project, it's her very first mesh hair specially resized for these tiny avatars. You may notice the glitch with the alpha and the mesh, I hope she fixes it for the official release, but I figured it's cute enough, and a gift, so I decided I'd show you anyway. It comes with the infinity color HUD (aka a bazilion different possibilities, color-wise)

I was even able, with a little twitching, to fit my beloved eyes from Poetic Colors (make sure to make a copy before any drastic change to an item). 

The hair worn on my normal avi are all group gifts too, from Exile. They come in all colors but I chose to wear my favorite tone from Exile, Marone. I particularly like the very elegant updo shown on the top pictures, Violetta. The ones below, Rayanne (left) and Betty Lou (right) have lovely color-change accessories.

Back to Black sneak peek 1

Back to Black theme is on its way and doors will open on Feb 11th. Meanwhile, I'll just ask you to open your eyes and heart to this little sneak peek and words.
Back to Black event is a mental health awareness event, trying to get our attention on those troubles affecting so many persons.
It also tries to make us understand them, and even though I'm pretty sure we cannot completely understand their pain, we have all been through darker moments.
We know how bad it feels and what a relief it is when someone helps us out of those situation.

Let's just do this. Pay attention to people around you. They might be screaming for help in silence.

Like this Argyle sweater, I totally love the domino look.

Catching Beads

Flux ? Have you been to Flux yet ? If not you should !
And here are two of the recent releases from Vero Modero: The Cigdem Set and Ara's Dress
I found the Cigdem set really great and I loved how the impression of shiny leather/latex the pants gave. I'm not totally sure this picture shows it as good as it is actually, but .. I tried many many many shots and I would never be satisfied enough.

The Ara's dress is what could go under your folder "Little Black Dresses that rocks the evening" .. if you do have a folder like this!

I'm just a little faun

Caution shy eyes, this post won't show it but ... that won't be covered a whole lot either.
Severed Garden just released this super sexy faun set for ZombiePopcorn Brand. Not to confuse with the hunt !
The ZombiePopcorn Brand is a themed store with a selection of creations, that will change every two weeks. Not more than 30 designers per row. An absolute must-visit.

 Want to see more ? Want to know all about it ? Then read after the cut ... you pervs! ^-^

What I Love

Luna is .. wonderful. She got the greatest idea that I've heard lately.
A Love Challenge. And no, it has nothing to do with getting cherry and well you know.
Just spread some good vibes by telling everybody about things you love, instead of things that pissed you off ! So there you go !

Who I love ?
     Johnny, the love of my life and the man I'll marry next year. And of course, my RL family and my cats Ikki and Luna.
     Also my friends: Kelley, Shayariel, Rosemarie, Richy, Harm, Kouse, Evie and wait.. guys I can't list you all or that would become a novel
     And you, for reading my blogging adventures.
What I love ?
     I love blogging. You've no idea how much I like being able to sit here, and mess around with pictures to show you things and creations I like.
     I like plurk. Even if sometimes I get to MAAR you all because you write too much, plurkies you make my days funnier!
     I love mesh... but if you read this blog on a regular basis, I think you already knew that one.
What I would love ?
     I'd love you to write your own Love Challenge. On your blog if you own one, and drop the link in the comments. Or in the comments if you don't have a blog so I can learn a bit more about you !

xoxoxo
With much much love.
Mae.
