Lazy Autumn Stroll

1-lazy-autumn-stroll-sm

Autumn is my favourite time for taking a walk. With the nip in the air, it is always best to have a big, warm guy to tag along. There is no need to hurry; dawdling is encouraged.

There are tons of new autumn-appropriate items floating around the grid this month. Starting with me, the dress from *Just BECAUSE* comes with a bolero to keep your arms nice and snug. The leg warmers from fri.day keep my legs toasty and the hat from JfL keeps the heat from seeping out of my head.

Chance has a totally new look (see below for all of his meshy wonderfulness), including the jacket/shirt combination from VRSION. Given my appalling lack of male fashion sense, I was thrilled to see this combo and sent Chance running to TMD to pick it up. He has even grown a beard for the season, compliments of an awesome group gift from NO.MATCH!

On to the scene…I am in love with the bicycle prop from {what next}. With a basket chock-full of pumpkins, it is perfect for a fall setting. With contributions from Apple Fall and Kalopsia, plus the finishing touch of the wrought iron fence from Botanical, we found the ideal spot to rest on our lazy autumn walk.

Nieka

I am hurrying to post this today, because the skybox from Warm Animations I used in the photo is available exclusively at LTD: The Event ends today! The skybox was designed to fit onto a 512m plot and has a very low land impact, so if you are short on space and prims, but want a very classy looking dwelling, you should grab this while you can. I went minimal with the decorations, using only the Warm Animations Round Chesterfield Pouf, which is colour-change to fit any decor. It is available at SaNaRae through October 18, so it can be your second stop on your shopping jaunt.

Once finished there, do stop by Apple May Designs to try your luck with the Nieka set for The Gacha Guardians event. This event is a bit different, in that the gachas are set up at the designer’s main store. It gets you out and about and you shouldn’t have to wait to get in – always a plus for a gacha event. The Nieka set includes the corset, panties, shoes and a stitched garter in several colours. Each piece is won separately (except Rares, which are full sets). Soft, satiny and sexy all in one set!

The credits below give you all the details. I’ll take the blame for the tardiness of my post, but now it’s time to get moving – there is no time to waste.

Pretty stuff I’m showing off:
*From the Nieka Gacha Set from Apple May Designs by Apple May (for The Gacha Guardians – available at the mainstore)

Free Fallin’

1 Damask Kufi sm

She’s a good girl, loves her mama
Loves Jesus and America too
She’s a good girl, crazy ’bout Elvis
Loves horses and her boyfriend too

It’s a long day living in reseda
There’s a freeway runnin’ through the yard
I’m a bad boy ’cause I don’t even miss her
I’m a bad boy for breaking her heart
And I’m free, free fallin’
Yeah I’m free, free fallin’

All the vampires walkin’ through the valley
Move west down Ventura Blvd.
And all the bad boys are standing in the shadows
All the good girls are home with broken hearts

And I’m free, free fallin’
Yeah I’m free, free fallin’

Free fallin’, now I’m free fallin’
Now I’m,
Free fallin’, now I’m free fallin’

I wanna glide down over Mulholland
I wanna write her name in the sky
I’m gonna free fall out into nothin’
Gonna leave this world for awhile

And I’m free, free fallin’
Yeah I’m free, free fallin’

Yeah I’m free, free fallin’
Oh! Free fallin’
Now I’m free
Oh!
Free fallin’

~ Free Fallin’ by Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers
