Glitter & Glam

1-Glitter-Gif-Sm

Pippi Moonites has created another sweet animated top (like the Halloween dress I showed about a week ago) utilising the scripted technique her husband lovingly created for her. This is a casual, everyday top that is anything but ordinary. You can pick up this one, plus two other colours at this round of the Cosmopolitan Sales Room. Rumour has it more colours will be released later at her mainstore.

I tried to do this photo the easy way, using the Gyazo GIF creator Hart Larsson so kindly pointed me to, but I couldn’t get the image to upload to my blog 😦 So, I took a lot of photos of the top, trying to capture each frame of the animation – not an easy task! But even with twenty shots, I only managed to pick up three distinctly different images. But this time I didn’t curse nearly as much when I created the GIF in Photoshop, so I guess the pain of my first attempt ingrained the lessons into my poor little head 😀

These are totally raw shots, and although I could have adjusted the lighting, smoothed out the edges and done some shading, I must say I am thrilled with Esteban’s performance. And besides, the shirt is the highlight of this post – who cares if my nose is a little wonky? 😉

It’s all about the glitter and glam.

Piddling Around In The Garden

1 PP Garden Set_006

I hate to say it, but I have a brown thumb. My Mom used to say I could kill a weed just by trying to take care of it. I currently have two plants – a basket of impatiens and a lavender bush – and they’ve both survived for several months. I really need to re-pot the lavender, but I’m afraid I will make the same mess as you can see in the picture! Potting soil spilled everywhere, pots turned over…yes, I think I’ll stick to watering my plants as I have been doing and hoping for the best.

Witchy Woman

Image PeepSideshow Darkward16 Comments

1 Witching Hour A

I’m a huge music fan, particularly of rock music. I have a love of the driving bass and the edgy lead singers that define rock music. But I also love country music, and southern rock combines the best of both worlds – the rhythm of rock and the story-telling of country.

This Halloween, I am DJing from 12-3am at The River, the rock club in SL where I work. I’ll be putting my set together with a heavy sprinkling of songs that represent this spooky holiday. One song that I will be including is “Witchy Woman” by The Eagles. They are arguably one of the best American rock bands of all times, and they are a classic example of southern rock. This song tells it’s love story with a haunting melody and smooth, sexy lyrics. While it is a bit slower than most of the music I normally play during my sets, it is iconic and I just have to include it.

Stop by if you’re up and around to start out Halloween, and come in costume – we’re throwing a party to kick off a day filled with events. If you need a witchy hat, pop into JfL Hats to grab this Sorcerer’s Hat. It’s unisex, comes in six colours and is perfect for brewing up your bewitching Halloween.

Here’s a listen to get you warmed up:
