The Classics

Today has been one of those crazy days where everything goes wrong. First it started out with my online bank telling me my password was incorrect then it was a trip to the bank where I paid two dollars for the ATM to print out my last 10 transactions but it was out of paper so I never received them. Then I broke two nails and spilled coffee on me. Oh, and let’s not forget about how the alarm clock went off this morning for no reason and woke up my child and therefore me too.

Anyways, I realized I hand’t logged in for like 5 days or something and I thought new pretties would make my day better.  Well, I don’t know about the day getting better but my avie sure looks cute. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!_0011 Continue reading

Talk About….Pop Music, Pop Pop Pop Musik

Pop Music_001

Before MTV, HBO used to do “Music Shorts” which were quickly renamed “Music Videos” and in between movies, you might get two or three videos. It’s the place I saw POP MUSIC (1979 for you non believers) video first. I also saw “Video killed the Radio Star” and other late 70s precursors to 80s pop.  A lot of great 80s music, iconic pieces even, launched in 1979.

Apparently the 80s couldn’t wait to get started. Continue reading

Confessions: Gluttony

feb20_005

Recognizing the happy coincidence of PXL Creations’ Seven Sins Gacha Skins coming out the same week as the new Buckcherry album Confessions, today I am featuring Gluttony.

I get it started and then I get brokenhearted
Because I can’t get a hold of the beast
It’s like I’m blind, I’m running out of time
Everything I crave is out of reach

Confessions: Envy

Feb19b_005

Envy, one of the Seven Sins Gacha Skins from PXL Creations.

Noting once again the delicious coincidence of PXL Creations releasing the Seven Sins Gacha skins the same week that Buckcherry released the Seven Sins as part of their Confessions album, I was elated to see then newest release from Shiki featuring a dress called Envy. Seriously, does serendipity get any better than that?

I’ve been watching you all day and night
I bet you’d make someone a perfect wife
My infatuation burns inside
I envy you and want you in my life.

I see you moving towards me, I feel it deep inside,
My mind, I can’t control it, I wish I had your life.

She’s got everything,
I hate it cause I envy him
And he doesn’t care like I do.
She’s got everything,
I hate it cause I envy him
And he doesn’t care like I do.

Confessions: Greed

default

I loved the picture from my logout screen and decided to use it instead of the picture I took.

It is serendipitous that the same week that PXL Creations releases a Seven Sins Gacha skin that Buckcherry released their new album Confessions featuring the Seven Sins. The album was released today, though I listened to a preview after reading about it in Rolling Stone earlier this week. The idea of putting the skins and the album songs together was irresistible. So, for the Greed skin from PXL, here’s the Greed song from Buckcherry.

I’ve lost my place in line. I don’t wanna cause trouble,
But I’m here to get mine.
So if you could, would you kindly move?
I’ll only ask you one time, cause I’m gonna get through.
I don’t need anybody else,
I’m not afraid to take a risk, I don’t practice good health.
I don’t pray and I don’t rely
On the lawmakers telling me what’s a crime.

The Greed skin has a bold gold lip and eye shadow.

I don’t care who I have to trample,
I don’t care, cause I want it bad.
The consequences ain’t no fucking matter,
Greed is the answer, everyone’s going mad.
Taking everything you can,
Stealing right from your hand,
When you’re gonna make a stand?
Cause greed will drive you mad.

Pop Princess

Sometimes I will come across an item in a store that is far out of my comfort zone, but still irresistibly appealing for some reason. That happened when I saw this very revealing and outré bodysuit from Diram. However, appealing as it was, I needed to change it up a bit for me to wear it so I added this adorable mesh skirt from Peqe. I loved how its bold prints contrast with the stripes of the body suit and the interplay of its softness with the bodysuit’s harder lines.

A cobbled frock

naiad1

Jackal Ennui has made amazing boots ever since I began playing Second Life ages and ages ago. Her boots were some of the first footwear that I ever bought in Second Life, fighting that “Oh my god I’m spending virtual money on virtual clothing” feeling. (Remember that? Heh.) And now, after so many years, Jackal has made a DRESS. The dress is delicate, with the same glorious texturing that Jackal uses on her shoes, but now applied to this elegantly clean-lined frock. (My whole outfit is here.)

The dress will be out for Zodiac – Pisces on February 19th.

Eyes: NP Lunar eyes in Scarlett
Nails: Mandala female short nails
Dress: Lassitude & Ennui Naiad sundress in rose
Skin: Pink Fuel Alyx in peach – sultry
Hair: Clawtooth Heartbreak beat for C88 in sweetheart
Horns: Lassitude & Ennui slightly monstrous mesh horns in spice
Lashes: Schadenfreude black curlicue eyelashes for C88
Stockings: Schadenfreude ruby luisa socks
Shoes: Schadenfreude pink cygnette heels
Tattoo: Wicked tattoos: born evil, medium ink

We Take the Pressure and We Throw Away

feb16_006

We take the pressure, and we throw away conventionality, belongs to yesterday.
There is a chance that we can make it so far.
We start believin’ now that we can be who we are. Grease is the word.

Grease is the word, is the word that you heard.
It’s got a groove, it’s got a meaning.
Grease is the time, is the place, is the motion.
Grease is the way we are feeling.

Upskirting for Brumly

Upskirting for Brumly

 

My friend has been blathering on in her “I am always right” sort of way that I needed to download Niran’s viewer because it makes Firestorm look like an old bag lady. Only she wasn’t so polite.

I’ve been an old Firestorm girl but since the gridlines and big black box issues, I just stopped taking pics in it mostly because I can’t FIX them. So today, before I logged in to shop, I downloaded Niran’s. The rest, is history. Continue reading
