A Crowded Room

1 The Crowded Room sm

In case you weren’t aware, Furillen reopened last week. With it the snow has returned, and the rooms in the hotel have been imaginatively revamped. In its original incarnation, these rooms were mostly sparsely decorated, but they were still somewhat traditional. That has gone out the window…if you can find one, or even the door! I’m not going to say more about that; you will have to visit Furillen to see for yourself.

There is just something about this sim that makes me want to strip down to my undies. I have taken many, many photographs in the various nooks and crannies – and sometimes, more public spaces – in my lingerie. I do try to be discreet; however, this time, I rezzed my LUMIPro sitball to lock in my pose…and first popped through the roof and then into the room below. Serene, the Janitor of Furillen, was quick to note my scantily clad figure dangling precipitously through the floor. But since my cheeks were already on display, I didn’t worry about the pink hue they took on; despite any embarrassment and a spectacular crash, I finished the shoot.

Now, I didn’t choose just any old lingerie to expose to anyone who happened to be wandering on the sim; I was wearing this evocative teddy from ~Blacklace~ to be released at the upcoming Vintage Fair. It harkens back to a time when the curves of a woman were something to be celebrated – not a cause for shame. And the pose from * La Jolie Rose *, also for Vintage Fair, displays those curves spectacularly with a gentle arch of the back and arms. If you are in need of classic pin-up poses, this is the set for you.

Take the time to visit Furillen, then head over to the Vintage Fair on June 10th. Both are worth it.

Second Life Movie Poster Challenge 2016: Peeping Beauty

1 Peeping Beauty sm

I was very happy to see that Strawberry Singh started her memes back a few weeks ago. Before her hiatus, I participated regularly; but this is the first one I have managed to do in recent times. No matter how busy I have been in real life, the Second Life Movie Poster Challenge from 2013 was one of my very favourites, and I wasn’t about to miss out this time!

For those of you who want to participate, here are the instructions:

Meme instructions: Create a movie poster for your Second Life Avatar or SLife. You can base it off an original movie poster or think of a completely new idea of your own! Please be careful of copyright issues and try not to use copyrighted elements in your work. Remember to share a link to your poster in the comments (of Berry’s post) and the Blog Memes Flickr Group. You don’t have to have a blog to do this challenge, you can share your image on any social platform you prefer.

In keeping with my original meme, I decided to play on my name. After wracking my brain for movies with “sleep” in the title, I settled on Sleeping Beauty. Thankfully, with the different eye positions available with my CATWA head, it was relatively easy to create a photo with one eye closed and one eye open. And like the last time, I found myself giggling as I created this poster.

Do please pop over to Berry’s blog to see all of the entries. There are details there on Glasz DeCuir’s upcoming exhibition of Second Life movie posters, as well.

Now I just have to wait for that prince to show up so I can fully awaken. I just hope my hundred-year morning breathe doesn’t kill him!

I Suppose It Will All Make Sense One Day

1 Scattered Dreams sm

Running her fingers through scattered petals like so many shattered dreams, she has to believe it will all make sense one day.

I visited The Outer Garden this weekend. Owned by bisou Dexler, it is a softly beautiful space. It could easily be a romantic location, but for me it was a place for contemplation. While the photograph may seem a bit melancholy, I left feeling light and refreshed.

Do check out my stunning sandals. They are newly released at Kustom9 by fri.day. Exclusively fitted for Maitreya Lara, they are one thing that makes perfect sense.

I don’t even have to wait for “one day” to know this.
