More Oubliette (2)

I made a mistake in my last post — I said my photos were of the sim Oubliette when actually they’re of the sister sim Ode, slightly up the hill and over the dells. Oops! To make up for it, I visited Oubliette properly today, and despite Saiyge’s big sign that says “O hai I’m tearing up the sim again,” it was still lovely, of course. Maybe especially so when it’s fraying around the edges, because rebuilding captures forgotten decay so well.

By the way! Miss Hybie of It’s Only Fashion actually runs a lovely travel blog called Avatars in Motion. If you like landscapes and poking curiously around the grid, go check out hers. It’s inspirational, truly!

Oh right, fashion. I’m also wearing a lovely new skin from Plastik, as well as ears to match and horns and face jewelry. I always love Aikea’s skins, and the colors of these are great (those violet tones especially, although I’m not wearing it today).

Something Supernatural

Helena Stringer - IOF - Supernatural - The Gang
One night on plurk I saw a post asking if anyone would like to do some crossdressing Supernatural cosplay, and I said sure why not. That is how I became Rufus, a wily grump haunted by his own horrid hunter’s past.

I choose this shot out of many simply because it was a different view than what some of the others took.

Giulia is Elegance Personified

aug05_002

 

The Giulia dress from Baistice for Love Donna Flora is elegance personified. Sissy Pessoa does such a fabulous job with making textures that hug the body and catch the light. She finds beauty and elegance in simplicity, stark and unembellished. I added gorgeous scarlet silk gloves from 5th & Oxford.

Acid Lily – A New To Me Event With Lots of Variety

The Acid Lily event returning was a bit like “Hmmmm, have I heard of this event? I THINK I have…. What is it?” Let’s face it, there are so many events, sometimes it’s tough to separate the wheat from the chaff. But I don’t like chaff, so let’s talk about an event that definitely goes in the wheat bin. Continue reading

Flitting around Oubliette

Oubliette (1)

Yesterday i went to the Fantasy Gatcha Festival, and immediately got sucked in. It’s not that the place is just my avatar’s style so much as that it has excellent stuff. I mean, the horn gatcha alone made me stand around obsessively feeding it L until I got this pretty set of rare horns. I don’t want to go back and complete a few gatchas, but I think I might have to…

I put on this wash of fairy kei-colored clothing (the Katat0nik skirt is perfect fairy kei style) and headed to Oubliette to photo. This sim is ridiculously nice on a good computer, and even then bits of it wander in and out of rez because it’s so dense and pretty. It looks to be going through a bit of renovation, but despite that, the fields and grottos are always magical. I’ll probably spend the week here trying to capture the magic I see in the sim. As always, a few more photos and the outfit credits are after the jump…

Why We Love Donna Flora

aug04_004

I know why I love Squinternet Larnia. I love her because whenever I found a sim that was cool and I wanted to share it with someone, she dropped everything to come look. I love her because she was always ready to come dancing or exploring. I love her because she always asked how I was doing and wanted an honest answer, not a glib okay. I love her because she is funny, quirky and stubborn. I am really counting on that stubborn nature now.

But why do we love Donna Flora? I suppose it could be because she is a generous and charitable creator who was there with her support for every event and charity that asked.  I suppose it could be longevity. It could be her skill, the ability to make things that look and fit well. However, I think it’s more to do with how her wild and creative designs speak to our hearts. Seriously, if you told me there was a dress with pink satin, black tulle covered with giant pink peonies and big, gold flowers, I would roll my eyes and laugh at the idea. But then, take a look at this dress. It is exactly that and should be a hot mess of kitsch and instead it a hot melange of romance and glamour. It is pure genius. And with genius, we have two choices, love it or hate it? And we love it.
