I wish I could do justice to this fabulous jacket from erratic. What you cannot see is the leather detailing that begins below the breasts and continues to the hem with rows of leather piping. It’s a stunning and ultra modern jacket. It comes in several colors.
Deep within the corners of my mind
I keep a memory of your face
And I only pull it out
When I long for your embrace
Deep within the corners of my mind
I’m haunted by your smile
As it promises me joy
Like a journey to a tropic isle
I decided earlier this week that it is 2013 and I’ve got three, count’em THREE weeks of vacation this year and DAMMIT, imma burn a day and fook off all day.
So here I am. Stretching out on my deck and scanning the horizon for… Continue reading
It’s true, all that glitters is not gold. Sometimes it is bronze, silver or platinum. And sometimes it is a bit of all at once as in this gorgeous top from Fashionably Dead. The peplum top is available at Collabor88 where the theme this month seems to be proving that glitter comes in every color. I dressed it up with the bottom of the Kamille dress from Countdown. One of the advantages of combining mesh with system layers, as Countdown has, is the ability to mix and match which makes me happy.

One of the reasons MadPea’s Carneval is so successful is the sound. With ominous mutterings, sussurating winds and voices crying out the sound adds to the atmosphere and adds the element of surprise that can startle one. They are not technically crying in the wilderness, but I am taking liberties with language today. I was well-prepared for the cold, blowing winds of the Carneval with my new Winter hair from Truth, complete with a winter scarf that changes color using a HUD.
I was not prepared for the ghostly shadows that appeared suddenly out of nowhere. I reacted with alarm, but I think the ghost was scared away by color. After all, his world is all black and white and there I was in a riot of pink from, oddly enough, Pink Outfitters. The lovely striped Lulu tube skirt comes in a rainbow of colors as does the Victoria lace jumper I wore with it.
And my first LOTD for the new year…..
This one comes to you courtesy of Baiastice. I’ve fallen in love with the leggings and sweater sets in mesh. So far, I’ve bought three of them…..

I went to Carneval last night, staying up until 4 A.M. exploring the amazing sim. MadPea has designed so many of my favorite sims and this one is perhaps his most stunning yet. Colored in a restrained black and white palette with touches of blood red here and there, the duotone colors make it so very dramatic and allows your windlight settings to paint the scene for you. This picture was shot in the specified region wind light which gave it an eerie desaturated gloom. The spooky, abandoned amusement park is a familiar trope, but MadPea takes the familiar and gives it new life. There is a KAOS effect ride which makes me wonder if it was inspired by the Get Smart episode where Max and Agent 99 went to the KAOS Amusement Park.
I dressed in this chic coat and skirt from VoguE, though from prior experience with MadPea’s mad creations, I should perhaps have known better. If you have not enjoyed a MadPea experience, you have been missing some of the best that Second Life has to offer. Combining rich, detailed textures and meticulous builds, MadPea creates places to play, to interact, to explore. Oddly enough, WordPress just autocorrected explore to expire – an ironic and macabre recognition of the world of MadPea.
I woke up early to go and see the sunrise and hopefully get some pretty pics for my walls at the new place. It was gorgeous outside, with lots of wildlife and the fresh air so early in the morning was so bracing but refreshing.
I sat on the beach and watched giant turtles swim and frogs bounce across the landscape. I am really glad I decided to spend my weekend here, it’s a great place for a busy pixel girl to relax and enjoy some pretend nature.
As the sun climbed higher I ventured out to the rocks and found this poorly landed plane. The scenery here is fun and quirky, I admit I am glad I came. I need to make someone come with me next time.
I can’t play checkers by myself!

I was looking for snowy sims earlier in the week and my friend Charisma sent me over to this fantastic sim called Maleo Isle – Magical Farm. Granted the sim wasn’t snowy anymore but it did not matter, the place is absolutely gorgeous. I knew that I wanted something equally ethereal to wear while shooting photos there. I was lacking in the fae wear so I went onto the marketplace for new fae goodies. I came across this well made outfit from Shar’s Gowns called Moss Fairy. It comes with Lola Tango’s but Hybie has smallish boobies forever. The best thing about all of Shar’s clothing is that it is super cheap. I got this outfit for like 25L…seriously.

Becoming a premium member of the Grid is a bit like a time share opportunity. They have these “premium” destinations you can hop off to, for merriment and festivity. Since I’ve always wanted to see what they were like, I decided to pack Sophie off to Auntie Inventory for the weekend (she loves it there, Aunty Inventory has EVERYTHING) and spend a weekend at The River seeing what all this is.
Some trashy books for reading and comfy clothes – and I was off! Continue reading
