VCO -OH- OH -OH

VCO  has skin and a cute pouty lip mouth in The Arcade this round.  I didn’t have any trouble with this mouth, in terms of making it look right. I’ve heard feeback from some mouths out there that you have to PS them a bit to make them look right. I simply used the resize option built into it to enlarge it a bit and adjusted it on my face to the right spot.

You can see my normal beauty mark in it’s normal place just below the mouth. Continue reading

How About Some Meat Cooked Over Fire ?

Living in the south in RL I appreciate the value of cooking out, we’re all about it down here.  Now BBQ in the south isn’t the same as grilling, which is what I’m doing above. But when I lived up north it was the same. Regardless of what you call it, meat cooked over fire is delicious. Continue reading

Livin’ In A Bloggers Paradise…

Bloggers are notoriously messy creatures. Catch us outside the pages of our blogs and we’ve got on pieces of six outfits and no alpha layers. It’s true. No shoes, mismatched earrings, no hands – this is how we run around the grid, stopping to catch perfect moments only when we’re shooting.

It’s sort of hilarious.

Our bedrooms, if decorated realistically, would be no different.

Alas, Alack and Welladay

I am not really feeling that woe is me at the moment, but this pose in ant’s broken chair at May’s Collabor88 just seems to embody the melodramatic despair of some poor benighted Shakespearean unfortunate. I used the Animare HUD to adjust the pose just a bit so the head and arm rest on the floor.  Continue reading

It Begins – ARCADE June 2015 is 48 Hours Away…

Arcade June 2015 has once again proven to me that the creators at The Arcade KNOW me.  They really really know me. They know I’m messy. They know I have too much make up and I’m not ashamed. They know, I have a lot of little bottles of things sitting around. And they love me for it.

I’m pausing as I absorb the amazing things available this round and trying to decide if I need to move house or how many more little things I can possibly shove into my house. I have to remodel my bath. That’s just got to happen.

What are your faves this round? I’m so excited, I can’t wait to bring you more, this is an amazing round. Get your clicking arm ready – there are lovely things to make your SL story even more your own.

My story is that of a blogger with too much stuff. They know me, they know me so well.

My Arcade Prep Time Has Begun

I am getting ready for The Arcade by romping around my house as a Snoob from BAIASTICE. The Snoob Avatars will be available in lots of different styles & coats and are pretty hilarious. They are perfect for just relaxing and enjoying the ocean breeze. Continue reading

All Meshed Up

Snapshot_002

 

Mesh dress, shoes, body, hands, feet, jewelry, hair and face. Yes, I am all meshed up. The dress is from Milk Motion for this month’s Collabor88. It comes in several pastel colors – fitting with this month’s theme. I love how asymmetry in the neckline echoes that of the skirt. I also adore the belt, enough that I wish it were sold separately to war with other items. I have one quibble, but it is rooted in Second Life limitations, not in poor construction. This dress has shoulder pads, as you can see. That gives it a great architectural look. Sadly, every long hair I tried to wear  intersected with it. I normally prefer the shorter hair and updos anyway, because I love jewelry and want to see it. But, I also like having the option of long hair and that is a little difficult with these shoulders. Of course, one of those free-flowing manes would work.

El Tango De Roxanne

First there is desire
Then… passion!
Then… suspicion!
Jealousy! Anger! Betrayal!
Where love is for the highest bidder,
There can be no trust!
Without trust,
There is no love!
Jealousy.
Yes, jealousy…
Will drive you… mad! Continue reading
