One of my favorite features of the clothing from Torn - by Torn Difference - is the bright, vibrant prints. Incidentally, this mesh top fits so perfectly with my Medium Standard Size-optimized shape, I didn't even wear the alpha! The mon tissue Westbury Mini continues to dominate. I am so happy I fat-packed that skirt because it has become a Go-To item for me.

I’ve got it bad
What do I do with this ache that I have?
Just let it be,
Or should I use all the tricks up my sleeve?

This ain’t a game
This ain’t a game I want to play
All the pieces are frayed
And there are rules
Oh, these are rules I can’t obey

I shot the pictures at Sopor Aeternum where it seems a carnival sold its last tickets and fallen into disuse, disrepair and decay. It's a lovely, though eerie, place to visit. What's not eerie? Those gorgeous Mary Janes from Leverocci, that's what!

It seems so unfair
They bite and they scratch when they’re not even there
The giddyup days
Go down with the sun as the calliope plays

So take a spin
Come take a spin and start the show
Climb the ropes and let go
You’re worried now
Don’t worry now, no one’ll know

Would you think very badly of me
If I took the first route that’s easy?
Would you help me to free
All the baggage you see?
Could you conquer this carnival?

This hair from Clawtooth seemed a perfect complement to the mood I was in with its casual French chic. It's kind of perfect in that this same hair could give you a Rachel Berry retro dorkiness or the confident elan of a Parisian fashionista. The necklace is a mesh creation from Celoe and I truly love it with its rich dark amber alive with purple striations. Gorgeous!

It’s started to sting
All of these words that I feel when I sing
Take it away
I can’t bear to see how you suffer this way

So many things
Too many things you can’t deny
Such good reasons to try
I want to hear
I need to hear you say the lines

Would you think very badly of me
If I took the first route that’s easy?
Would you help me to free
All the baggage you see?
Could you conquer this carnival?

The skin is Izzie's Delusional from the Skin Showcase. This is a link to a full review with the many tattoo eyeshadows and lip glosses that are available. I am wearing the lemon shadow and the nude gloss. These skins by Izzie Button are gorgeous. I love the purity of her face with the hint of blush in her cheeks. And three cheers for red brows. The eyes are from IKON. The catchlights in this Sunrise set seem so perfect for shooting here, seeming to catch the branches reflected in the eyes.

Would you battle the Pisces in me?

This ain’t a game
This ain’t a game I want to play
All the moves have been feigned
And there are rules
Too many rules no one obeys

Would you think very badly of me
If I took the first route that’s easy?
Would you help me to free
All the baggage you see?
Could you conquer this carnival?
Would you battle the Pisces?
