Party Girl Wanna Be

1 Party Girl Wanna Be sm

In her heart, she’s really a party girl.

Her nails are painted, fingers and toes. She has the dress, shiny and red. She has the champagne, already chilled. She even has the sign reminding her to celebrate.

But she knows that when the polish is dry and the dusk fades to night, it will be a party for one. One lonely champagne flute for one lonely girl. Too pretty to keep hidden away, but the mannequin will be the one still modeling the dress when the party starts and ends.

She’s a party girl wanna be. In her heart, she wants to dance through till dawn. In her soul, the music never stops. But in her head…a wanna be is all she will ever be.

Don’t be like her; head over to My Attic @ The Deck. The theme is “It’s My Party” and you can find tons of party gear. It runs through November 30th, so don’t let the clock strike before it’s over.

The Magic Of Butterflies

1 The Magic of Butterflies1

There is not much that can match the magic of butterflies. Suddenly a dreary day becomes spring-like, worries lift on the fragile wings of this wonder of nature. Beauty fills an otherwise unpleasant moment.

Close your eyes, imagine the chrysalis transforming into this perfect illustration of metamorphosis. Feel the warmth of a smile fluttering upon your lips as the butterfly on the rose.

Lesson Learned From Surrealism

1 Uncommon Smile D

I consider myself to be a rather grounded, down-to-earth kind of person. So I almost didn’t click into the gallery for The Surreal Complex over on Seraphim to see what was on offer. Ah, in case you didn’t know about Seraphim, that is my shopping secret weapon. It is how I find out about the majority of sales events going on and gives me a sneak-preview so I can decide whether or not to fight the crowds.

But, being the dedicated shopper that I am, I took a peek. I was expecting something along the lines of nightmare-inspired items; instead, I found more quirky, clever and cute items mixed in with the more avant-garde. The event is divided into three categories: art, dreams and fairy tales. It is a fun shopping venue (although I did have trouble finding the teleporter back to the main level from the dreams gallery) and while it was busy, it wasn’t overly crowded, making it a very pleasant shopping experience.

My favourite items were the poses. I had to have the Butterflies set from UNCERTAIN SMILE, and immediately headed over to Two Moon Gardens to play with it. It was the perfect distraction while I waited the required ten minutes for entry into the Two Moon Gardens Booty Board competition (group membership required).

I guess this just shows that one should never judge a book by its cover or a sales event by its name. I have always believed the first; I am learning the wisdom of the second.
