Autumn Burst

1 Autumn Burst

“I’m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.”
― L.M. Montgomery, “Anne of Green Gables”

A typical October day…you head out, expecting cool temperatures and a chance of rain, only to be caught in a burst of autumn sunshine. Layers and a stylish hat are fashion musts during this season.

Between JfL Real Hats and (Milk Motion), I’m covered. The hat is one of Johnfrancis’ two latest releases (there is a plain version, along with the patterned chapeau I’m wearing) and the sweater and skirt can be found at this month’s round of Collabor88. Only two days into this monthly event and I’ve managed to get in twice; once, to shop and the other when I accidentally hit TP instead of copying the SLurl from the map. Never fear – I left quickly to make room for those waiting to get in!

Get dressed, get out, and enjoy this world of October.

How Does An Angel Hide Her Tears?

She always cries in the rain…

I went wandering on the weekend, looking for a suitable location to show off the new rain hat by JfL Hats. I stumbled across several photos of H22O on Flickr, and upon arrival, I knew I had found the perfect place. Designed by the same creator of one of my favourite now-gone sims, 2304 Rain, it has the same haunted yet awe-inspiring feel that had me lost for hours simply exploring, taking photos and soaking in the atmosphere.

It is definitely worth a visit.

Also worth visiting is the upcoming event, The 24 Square. Mark your calendar; it runs from September 5-13 and you can find this beautifully made hat by Johnfrancis Laville, one of six colours in the box. It is Materials Enabled, so it perfectly captures the appearance of being wet. It is available in limited quantities, so don’t miss out.

My Buddy & Me

1 My Buddy & Me

Edit: Rhapsody is now open. Click the link to start shopping!

Meet my new buddy. I call him Roscoe. I think he’s kind of awesome. He’s strong and good looking and doesn’t mind if I lean on him. I think we’ll have a long friendship.

And guess what? You can have Roscoe, too! He’s a gift, along with the pose, at Rhapsody! All you have to do is pop in when it opens and pick it up from the Nani booth in the Country section. They have some adorable country-themed poses and props that I’m itching to try out.

You can also pick up this adorable skirt from Coquet. while you’re stomping around in the Country at Rhapsody. It is uber cute and comes in three different textures. I just love it with my boots and cowboy hat!

Rhapsody opens at noon on June 28th. You can check out the link to the blog for more information and I’ll be sure to update with a SLurl when the the event opens. In the meantime, take a look at the map to get an idea about who is where and what strikes your fancy:

This is a very easy event to navigate. Check out the centre landing area then pick an exit. I suggest allemande left until you do-si-do your way back to the beginning. Nothing to it but to go, shop, and enjoy the event!
