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!

Window Dressing

1 Window Dressing sm

It’s “that time of the month.” You know, Uber just opened. Just when the frenzy of Collabor88 and Shiny Shabby have died down, this event teases us to spend those last few Lindens we managed to hold on to for the first three weeks of the month.

The leg wraps I am wearing from fri.day at Uber are just so pretty! Delicate and feminine, they are the perfect way to go barefoot and be shod at the same time. Is it cheating? You’ll have to try to get into a convenience store wearing them to be sure 😉 They are a wonderful match with the lingerie from .::Dead Dollz::..

Make sure you hang onto a few of those L’s, though, because The Arcade is just around the corner! March 1st is one of those dates that is marked on a LOT of Second Life resident’s calendars as the gacha event to end all gacha events begins. While this event is always full of whimsical, must-have items, [ keke ] gives us whimsy and practicality at the same time. Her lovely garden accessories can easily find a permanent place in your SL home.

But be sure, before you throw away all of your money, you head over to Exposeur to take advantage of a MASSIVE sale and help out a good cause. RubyStarlight Writer, the owner and creative genius behind this pose/prop store, is desperately trying to raise funds for veterinarian bills for her two cats. At least one of them needs surgery; she is still waiting to hear whether both will, or not. The sale goes on indefinitely, but don’t waste any time heading to the main store. Everything is priced at 50-100L (including her amazing large pose props), with gachas reduced to 15L. There has never been a better time to stock your inventory with a pose to suit just about any occasion. And, you can help out Chloe and Brookie at the same time.

Stop just being window dressing; you’ve got shopping to do!

A Play-by-play Of Her Mind At Its Freest

1 Carrie sm

A dream is made of equal parts reality and fantasy. Or perhaps, rather than fantasy it is hopes and wishes. Of possibilities and aspirations. Of memories transformed into tales of indulgence and fulfillment, rewritten to salve our subconscious. A juxtaposition of everyday events with faraway desires. They are the attainment of our loftiest goals in our most unguarded state.

Or sometimes, they are simply strange glimpses into how far our imagination can take us.

A girl in lingerie and dangerously high heels atop a sandy mountain, watching a dove peck for food as flowery wind turbines gently tousle her hair. Yes, this is probably more of the latter than the former. But still, it is a legitimate dream, a play-by-play of her mind at its freest.
