Stolen

If you’re going to pull off a robbery, be brazen and walk right out, hiding the goods in plain sight.

The Winter Bride Collection by Salt & Pepper for the December round of The Arcade is an absolute stunner. From chin to thigh, everything I am wearing is from this gacha gem, and not one of these items is a Rare. Hitting any combination on this machine is worthy of a heist; the Rares are even more incredible! I don’t know if I’ll have a chance to blog the wedding dress, collar & cuff set or fur coat, but do check out The Arcade Shopping Guide or the Salt & Pepper Flickr post for the full details.

This collection has stolen away my heart like a thief in the night.

Pretty stuff I’m showing off:

Where Winter Ends

There is no place more desolate than your thoughts when alone in the middle of a long, cold winter. The darkness and dreariness of the season can drive you deeper into this wilderness created by your isolation. Stark, quiet and desolate, it can seem as if there is no way that spring will come.

But a blast of colour, an instant of positive outlook can bring you closer to that moment.

The colour, in this case, is provided by the Brenda dress from Salt & Pepper for Tannenbaum 2017. It comes in a variety of colours and trim choices, but I chose red – the colour of life and merriment.

It is the colour that brings me to where winter ends.
