1 Guest Appearance sm

It kind of feels like I am making a guest appearance on my own blog. I know I haven’t been very active lately; my real life job is sapping my energy and time. I am going to try to play catch up in the next few days; this photo (and the one for my next post) I actually took last weekend. But I just got around to working on them last night. What a way to spend a Friday evening!

The pretty nightie and shoes are gacha prizes from Salt & Pepper for The Gacha Garden. So delicate and feminine! The shrug is also by S&P for the same event, but it is the Seed of Inspiration prize. For those of you not familiar with this event, the vendor rewards you with a special gift after playing the machine 20 times. That is your seed of inspiration to keep playing! The shrug works with all of the pieces; the common babydoll and the rare dresses. You could even pair it with any other sleeveless top you have, making it a very versatile piece.

I’m keeping the commentary short; head to the credits for all of the details – they’re what are really important!

Who Needs Bette Davis Eyes?

Image PeepSideshow Darkward2 Comments

1 Rita Hayworth Glamour sm

Her hair is Harlow gold
Her lips sweet surprise
Her hands are never cold
She’s got Bette Davis eyes
She’ll turn the music on you
You won’t have to think twice
She’s pure as New York snow
She got Bette Davis eyes
~ Lyrics from “Bette Davis Eyes” by Kim Carnes

Give me a break. Who cares about Bette Davis Eyes when you can have the red hair and glamour of Rita Hayworth? The famous redhead danced her way through the glory days of Hollywood in the 40’s – one of the most glamorous times in cinematic history. While most of her films were done in black and white, there is no denying the feisty yet feminine wiles of this darling ginger. Best known for her role as the fiery “Gilda,” Hayworth was an iconic siren in a time known for its femme fatales.

I was inspired to create this scene to honour Miss Hayworth by the dress from Salt & Pepper and the strappy heels from Apple May Designs. The shoes are available now at Tres Chic and the dress will be featured at the upcoming round of Shiny Shabby (starts tomorrow). Throw in the blazing locks from Magika and the classic chair with glamour puss pose from junk., plus some props from [ keke ] and [ zerkalo ], and it is like stepping onto the set of a 1946 Hollywood film.

The skin I am wearing from ::JOLI:: is creamy and classic. It comes with a variety of mesh body appliers and make up options on tattoo layers or in appliers. It is available at Skin Fair 2016, Sim 2.

Speaking of Skin Fair, there is a week remaining and if you were thwarted in your attempts to gain entry in the first week, now is the perfect time to get in for this amazing event. For those of you who might be wondering, script limiters have now been lifted. Although Hayworth once said, “I have always felt that one of the secrets of real beauty is simplicity,” you don’t need to strip down to bare simplicity to get in to create your perfect look.

“After all, a girl is… well, a girl. It’s nice to be told you’re successful at it.”
