Feeling Nostalgic

This is the fourth annual Peace on Earth hunt. Blogging about the Hunt makes me remember my first year in Second Life and the POE1 was the first gridwide hunt that I had participated in. I remember reading about it beforehand and wondering how they would do a gridwide hunt – did that mean I had to look everywhere? Yup, I was that doofus! It was fresh and exciting and so much fun to hunt with Gidge, running all over the place, cracking wise and having good times. I remember how we would go to lucky chairs to wait and actually talk in chat. We even had lucky chair parties! This made me remember Digit Darkes and how much Gidge and I looked for her every new release, racing to be there to see what was new! She’s left the grid and I have packed up almost everything, but not everything. For this post, I pulled out a couple favorites to mash up with a dress from 1 Hundred for the 4th Annual Peace on Earth Hunt. The dress is adorable, but it’s chilly and I have been battling a head cold and for some very bizarre reason, I want my avatar to be nice, warm and comfy, so I didn’t want to wear a sleeveless mini – no matter how adorable. I decided to take off the skirt and add some pants and a jacket.

I really love the bold red, white and black in this top. This is one of my favorite shades of red on the blue side of red, but really just red, red, red! The white embroidery on the black band right below the bodice is beautiful and the textures and details are wonderful. I had to have a jacket to keep off the chill and still show off that fabulous embellishment, so Digit Darkes Dictator Shrug fit the bill perfectly. The black on black brocade in the Developer pants are a subtle complement to the top’s embroidery as well. Sadly neither the jacket nor pants are available any longer, but then this focus is the marvelous Cherish dress from 1 Hundred. Besides, don’t we all have old things in our closet that we hang onto because we love them?

I got chilly for a moment so you can see the top a little better. The jewelry is from Amorous and is available at the Vintage Fair which ends today.

This fabulous, luscious, oh-so-sexy hair is from Lelutka. It’s called Marie. Yummy!

And here’s another sneak peek of the soon to be released Kate from PXL Creations. I am wearing on of the lip tattoos. A cool feature is that the makeups from Gaia will work with this new skin – so you can look forward to tons of options.
