Two Sisters, No Credits

1 Two Sisters 2

When I take photos for my blog I am fastidious about taking down the credits. I think it’s important to give proper due to the amazing creators of Second Life.

I’m breaking my own rule here today. I’m blogging and I’m not going to do credits. Not because the creators of everything in this photo aren’t amazing, but because I had no intention of blogging this picture when I took it. It is just a happy snap I took while hanging out with my sis.

I love going to visit Rwah. She’s amazingly talented and it is rare to see her sim looking the same way on two successive visits. But I liked this particular incarnation. So while we were sitting there discussing her latest vision for her space, fashion, men, and life in general, I snuck my view behind us and took this shot. I didn’t let on; I just passed her the raw shot after I had taken it.

It made me happy. Just spending time with Rwah. No pressure to hit deadlines, no clients to prep for, no pressing shopping events I just had to attend. Just two sisters, no credits and a beautiful memory, captured in a photograph.

Pretty stuff I’m showing off:

My sister, myself, a bench (from junk.) and a vista.

…Should You Choose To Accept It

So I seem to have a mannequin theme going here, lately.

This was an accidental photo after I had spent literally hours on a totally different image wearing a different outfit in a different location using a different pose for the same theme. Don’t you love when a plan comes together? I just wish it had come together before I spent all that time on the other set up!

I was challenged by Rwah to create a photo of myself fixing my shoe. She had been challenged by Len Douglas to take a photo of herself fixing her bra. It was inspired by his photo of himself fixing his tie.

I, in turn, invited Wendz Tempest to create a photo of herself fixing her stocking. Her mission, which she has chosen to accept, is not only to create the image but to challenge someone else to fix something else.

We’re regular McGyvers here. No disrespect intended, Mr Phelps.

When Johnfrancis Laville passed me over this sexy Homberg, he said he wasn’t sure if it would work for a woman. Pffft, I say! What’s sexier than grabbing your man’s hat and slipping it on with a pair of Come Get Me pumps from Essenz and this tiny fishnet top and (broken) panties by Apple May Designs? Especially when you’re comparing yourself to a static model, even if she is dressed only in a rosebud? It’s all about standing next to some(one)thing that doesn’t look as good as you 😉

My mission is complete. *Cue self-destructing tape and sizzling match with cheesy 1960’s theme music*

Coveted

I have often admired women in Second Life who wear tattoos. My sister, Rwah, is an Ink Queen, rarely going without. I have sported small tattoos from time to time, but while I have looked at multiple body tats, I always held back, not finding a design that truly said “Peep” to me.

I finally found it.

I admit I hadn’t heard of Space Mermaid before, but the moment I laid eyes on this ink, I had to have it. It is feminine yet daring – a true statement piece.

If you covet this body art, make sure you get it while No. 21 runs – it is exclusive and won’t be sold when the event ends.

Luna Jubilee of !bang has also released a lovely single female pose pack for Shiny Shabby. As always, her poses are natural and beautifully created, so no funky bits were edited in this photo 😉

Is it wrong that I never want to get dressed again?
