Rise and Shine

This is my face every morning when I have to wake up.  Waking up doesn’t agree with me. I like going out and doing things but ugh the waking up part isn’t for me.  Continue reading

Gacha Got Me

Good morning girls, glad you popped by. I have so many new goodies this morning that I’m about to pop! I stopped over to the Gacha Garden event and oh dear I was one of those people! I was pulling and pulling and pulling – because I wanted the ding dang bed from this set from Sallie.  Continue reading

Climbing the Ladder

I shot this a few days ago with a huge part of my hip accidentally alpha’d out. I’m a blogger genius I am. This gorgeous body suit – it would be lovely with a skirt or slack, and these shoes are from House of Hucci and are STILL available at Collabor88. What? You STILL didn’t make it to Collabor88 for the October haul? Well the clock is ticking up it’s STILL open…run dammit the crowds are gone and the goods are still just as wonderful. Continue reading

Just One Look

I’m just stretching before settling into my morning routine of blog surfing and enjoying some free time.  Tuesday is always such an annoying morning for me, it’s always the morning I think “Oh I’ll play a little WoW” before I recall that it’s doing maintenance.  I guess we covet what we don’t have then, eh?

Well I’m trying to decide what to do with myself otherwise, and slipped into this cute new dress ensemble from Sascha’s designs, she’s made it in three variations, on solid, one print (I am wearing) and one sparkly – PERFECT for the holidays.

I’m going to be lazy and share her vendor ads for it.

Presented For Your Consideration…A Day Called Monday

Gidge Uriza is an ordinary fashion blogger. She’s been at her role for several years now and has enjoyed some success. But lately she’s found that she’s more and more vexed by the little things. The enhancements that just end up being more work, the new releases at events only, the fact that the new Firestorm takes such big pictures that no matter what she does she can’t crop them.

She’s worn out. Continue reading

LAQ and Rainy Days

Cold rainy days are to be expected, but a good hot meal makes me feel so much better most days. My new home is settling in to place for me rather nicely, and despite my typist being away for several days, I’m in a cozy place without her while I wait. I can’t ask for much more. Continue reading

When Cold Winds Blow

Even the mice have taken shelter. It’s a cold wind blowing across the island and Tickle Pink & I have gotten a book and are snuggling up for the evening. We’re prepared to spend the night exactly right here. I’m regretting putting the kitchen in the other tree house – as now it means I’ll have to brave the cold to get more hot chocolate.  Continue reading

At home with the macabre

“We make up horrors to help us cope with the real ones.”

I do not decorate my home for Halloween and only add a bouquet of colored glass bulbs and a gold tabletop Christmas tree for Christmas. My apartment is small and I don’t waste my limited storage space storing decorations. My second life, though, seems to have infinite storage space so I love to decorate there. Also, it’s much less work to pack up and move and also less expensive. Here,then is my home for fall inspired in part by the macabre aesthetic of Tim Burton. I began by tinting my Tabor Cottage from Barnesworth to saturated dark colors instead of the natural stucco that it was originally. There’s a barn in the background with a few animals and a dock on the water.

I added this prop fence from Vespertine because I loved the bright colors and though it did not add anything macabre to the home, I liked the colors and the idea of it. Not everything needs to be macabre.   Continue reading
