My Buddy & Me

1 My Buddy & Me

Edit: Rhapsody is now open. Click the link to start shopping!

Meet my new buddy. I call him Roscoe. I think he’s kind of awesome. He’s strong and good looking and doesn’t mind if I lean on him. I think we’ll have a long friendship.

And guess what? You can have Roscoe, too! He’s a gift, along with the pose, at Rhapsody! All you have to do is pop in when it opens and pick it up from the Nani booth in the Country section. They have some adorable country-themed poses and props that I’m itching to try out.

You can also pick up this adorable skirt from Coquet. while you’re stomping around in the Country at Rhapsody. It is uber cute and comes in three different textures. I just love it with my boots and cowboy hat!

Rhapsody opens at noon on June 28th. You can check out the link to the blog for more information and I’ll be sure to update with a SLurl when the the event opens. In the meantime, take a look at the map to get an idea about who is where and what strikes your fancy:

Every Breath You Take

1 Rhapsody

Edit: Rhapsody is now open. Click the link to start shopping!

Every move you make
And every vow you break
Every smile you fake, every claim you stake
I’ll be watching you

Every single day
And every word you say
Every game you play, every night you stay
I’ll be watching you

~ Lyrics from “Every Breath You Take by The Police

I originally set up this scene using some of the fabulous props from Kuro for the upcoming music-themed shopping event, Rhapsody with the thought of a smokey nightclub feel. I wanted it to be moody and evocative of the 1940s, so I chose to go with a black & white version.

I think I ended up with it seeming kind of creepy instead…rather of like the song, “Every Breath You Take” by The Police. At first it may seem to be an expression of love. But if you look and listen closely, isn’t it rather stalkerish?

Rhapsody begins on June 28th. Check the blog for more information and I’ll update the location when it opens.

I don’t like wine. I wish when I opened a bottle, rose petals poured out.

Add a little music and candlelight and it would be a perfect evening.
