A Bikini, A Balloon And A Midnight Sky

1 Butterflies Balloons & A Midnight Sky sm

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.

You can find the bikini from Apple May Designs and sandals from fri.day at the May round of Collabor88. You can find your own surreal setting somewhere in your imagination.

Guest Appearance

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!

Shy Glance

1 Shy Glance sm

So, I had been trying to find the perfect setting for this sexy lingerie from NX-Nardcotix and come-get-me heels from fri.day all weekend. I’d tried several shoots at my home and on my platform, putting up buildings, props and trying out loads of poses, but it just wasn’t working. I decided to change clothes and take a break, heading over to Furillen to check out the newly erected Bar Cafe Fabriken. In its current incarnation, it is a blues club and I just fell in love. It feels like it has been around forever, when in actuality, it had only been there for less than a day.

As I wandered upstairs to check out the photographs, I realised I was not only alone in the bar, but on the sim. When I reached the corner where this photo hangs, I had my “Aha!” moment of the day and quickly stripped down to my undies. A quick trial of the {NANTRA} Effortless set, and I had my pose sorted. I played around with my camera angle and lighting and started taking my shots. I was so engrossed in the moment, it took me a while to realise I was no longer alone.

With a shy glance over my shoulder, I realised it was time to go. So I teleported home, dressed in more appropriate street wear (i.e., not streetwalker attire) and headed back to hang out…as if I hadn’t just been strutting my stuff in my lingerie moments before 😉

The lingerie and pose set are available at The Liaison Collaborative and the shoes can be found at Collabor88. You know you want them. I guarantee you need them. Slip them on and you’ll be catching a few shy – or not so shy – glances of your own.
