I Suppose It Will All Make Sense One Day

1 Scattered Dreams sm

Running her fingers through scattered petals like so many shattered dreams, she has to believe it will all make sense one day.

I visited The Outer Garden this weekend. Owned by bisou Dexler, it is a softly beautiful space. It could easily be a romantic location, but for me it was a place for contemplation. While the photograph may seem a bit melancholy, I left feeling light and refreshed.

Do check out my stunning sandals. They are newly released at Kustom9 by fri.day. Exclusively fitted for Maitreya Lara, they are one thing that makes perfect sense.

I don’t even have to wait for “one day” to know this.

A Face I Can Live With

I took the Mesh Head plunge at CATWA this weekend. I have tried others, but they just didn’t seem to suit me; unlike Alice, which just seems to be a good fit for me. With the addition of having a CATWA applier for my current skin by Elysium, I think I have switched for good. I have been so tempted by the beautiful appliers for mesh heads, but for the first time, I found a face I can live with. I haven’t taken it off since I rezzed it out of the box and started adjusting my shape, my eyes, fiddling with hairbase appliers, makeup and expressions. And she photographs like a dream.

I really like this cozy little corner I created to showcase some of the items from The Liaison Collaborative. I was going to do a second photo for the dress from Salt & Pepper, but I decided to try out the poses in the couch and it worked. Even seated, it shows off the sexy little number Salt has created for The Dark Style Fair 3. I didn’t even take dozens of shots; well, close, but under 2 dozen 😉

TLC runs through May 30th and the Dark Style Fair through June 4th. Do check them out and discover something new you can’t live without.

A summer night, a deserted dock, a butterfly-bedecked balloon. A perfectly-fitted bikini and calf-hugging sandals. The evening air, damp with dew creates a slight fog over the landscape.
