Gentle Repose

Image PeepSideshow DarkwardLeave a comment

This kind of describes the way I feel today: I spent the time to find something cute to wear and then…maybe a bit of a lie down. I thought “Gentle Repose” sounded better than “Lazy Slob” so that’s the title I went with.

In case you have a bit more energy than I do, you’ll want to head to Uber for the Kaylah Jeans from Just BECAUSE. They come with four versions: long with both tight and loose fits and for boots, also with tight and loose fits. The loose fit styles work with many bodysuits or tucked shirts. But still, try a demo to make sure they work with your selection. The boot style works perfectly with the Anna Boots from Just BECAUSE (available at the main store or on Marketplace, but they may work with other knee-high boots.

Before my lethargy set in, I visited the [Aleutia] main store to take advantage of the new store opening sale. Items are 25-50% off, with an additional 25% discount for group members. I picked up a few things, including the top I am wearing, which comes with a HUD to customise like crazy. The sale runs through October 1st, so even if you’re having a case of the lazies, too, you still have a bit of time to take advantage.

For any other information about my styling, please peruse the credits. I think I’ll just take a nap.

Caressed

Tomorrow officially begins the Halloween season, which also brings one of the biggest annual events in Second Life, Salem. Full of horror and beauty, this celebration of the macabre is one of the hottest tickets in town.

Salt & Pepper doesn’t disappoint. With two releases, including the Lisha necklace I am wearing, she seamlessly joins the beautiful and the macabre. This unearthly choker is HUD driven with all colours included – bone, bone blood stained, gold, silver, pewter, black, rose gold and light gold.

Slip it around your neck and feel the shivers as you are caressed.

Tea & Sympathy

Image PeepSideshow Darkward4 Comments

Just when I thought I was completely over the flu, I got hit with it again. This is a very nasty strain that seems to cycle back and just torment you with a sore throat, headache and rumbling cough. I can say, unequivocally, that I am over it.

Over having it; not actually over it. So I am dosing myself with loads of tea with honey and lemon and resting as much as possible. Thanks to [ keke ], I can serve up my tea in style with this weekend’s 50L special, the “hard to find set” in blush. This is an amazing bargain, with eight pieces in a lovely shade for one small price.

You can find this set at the [ keke ] mainstore if you, too, need tea and sympathy.
