Who Needs Mistletoe?

1 Who Needs Mistletoe

I have never been a person who puts up their Christmas tree in RL before the beginning of December. In fact, I won’t be putting one up at all this year. It’s too much of a temptation for my cat and since it’s just the two of us, why test fate? Besides, even after 14 Christmases in Australia, I can’t get my head around Christmas in the summer. It would be my luck to trim my tree and get hit by a bushfire alert and have to take it down.

Instead, I can have a cozy little place in Second Life with a roaring fire, a big, brightly lit tree and even snow falling softly outside. I can even change it on a whim, depending on who is stopping by to visit. Today I brought along Chance to show off this very romantic pose by !bang for this month’s round of TMD. He didn’t bring the mistletoe, but honestly, who really needs it? 😉

Just a reminder that the Avi Choice Awards voting ends on Monday, December 8 at 3pm SLT. If you haven’t already and are so inclined, I would love your vote for Favorite Fashion Blogger. It’s wayyyyyy down toward the bottom of the voting page, so I hope if you pop over you don’t give up before you get there 🙂

In His Room

1 In His Room 1

I’m in the middle of decorating a new house by L2 Studio. It’s always a challenge to create a home that reflects yourself without being a carbon copy of previous homes. Somehow, this time the room seems to have taken on a masculine flavour.

While deciding whether or not to keep it or start over, I realised this was the perfect opportunity to use Kuro in Motion‘s latest pose, Thrown… I have loved this pose since Luana started teasing with photos on Flickr before it was released.

Enter Chance to sweep me off my feet…in his room.

Hmmm….maybe I was channeling a bit too much of him while decorating. Maybe I should just leave him to do the heavy lifting and allow me to be the interior decorator.

Hanging Around?

1 Hanging Around

Cirque de Seraphim is winding down, and so far, this event has raised over $L642,000 for the ASPCA. That is over US$2500 for this worthy cause. That amount was their goal, but with four days left, please head over to help raise the contribution as high as possible.

So if you find yourself hanging around in the next few days, head on over to Cirque de Seraphim and spend some money for a worthy cause.
