One Thing About My New Hair

I keep my lunch in it. Is that wrong?

This new crazy and fun hair (that the sushi IS optional with) is going to be at THE ARCADE oh in just DAYS! Can you believe Arcade is almost here! I kind of love this hair, it reminds me a lot of the days when people made silly things just because they could. Arcade always brings back a lot of the whimsy of my early days of SL to me.

I’m also showing off the amazing group gift from PINK FUEL. Why are you not in this update group? Seriously she included SLINK Appliers? HOW freaking generous is that? Eyes, lips skin and appliers just as a thank you for being in her group. Mochi is so generous, she amazes.

It’s not too late to run over to MY ATTIC to check out everything that’s new over there, this skirt and tank from LACUNA are a pretty summer look.

That’s all for me, but I’m going out for Japanese for lunch, that’s for sure.

Later pretties!

New Darker Tones for SLINK Visage Head

I used to work with a girl whose mother was a very pale, freckled Irish redhead. Her father was a black as night Colombian. Finding makeup with a nightmare for her.  Her skin tone was dark but pale, and everything looked wrong. I remember when her tone of foundation was discontinued, she was distraught.

You see a lot of complaining in SL about dark skin tones, or the lack thereof, but at least it’s not a problem we MUST live with. We can try new things, branch out, and flip into different colors on a whim.

In SL, we are whatever color we want to be, which is a luxury ladies of color do not have in RL. Continue reading

Dusk in Paradise

0526_002I stopped off at Paradiso, an enchanting sim that closes on May 30th. This is a sim where you can imagine meeting fairies, unicorns and other ethereal creatures. I, however, was very substantial in this lovely halter top from [NV] and skirt from Maitreya.

0526_003I love this sim, so very beautiful and romantic. I used the sim’s regional settings for the pictures, however they left my avatar completely in the dark, so I attached a projector to illuminate myself – not a face light, mind you – a projector with a light leak texture to complement the sim’s colors. I spent far too much trying to figure out which direction the projector was pointing before remembering that I had deselected “Render Attached Lights” long ago to avoid being blinded by other people’s face lights. Once I remembered that, it was good to go.

Last Day of Vacation

MY ATTIC has been a spectacular event for my three day weekend this time around. If you are ready to plunge head in to summer and appreciate the vintage styling of the pinup look, you need to run grab up the goodies.

Fishy Strawberry completed my lust for new beachwear with this retro sailor look, available in three colors. Continue reading

Weekend Getaway

I wanted a weekend getaway and Cay’s at Woodland Lake was having a weekend long party – so it was JUST the place to getaway!  I found just the right thing to wear too at Mon Cheri…. this long, casual dress is just the thing to make you feel relaxed for a party on the docks.

Take a Time Out….

at TIME OUT! I was looking for a place to do a bathing beauty post and this sim was recommended to me and you really should take a look around. I went to a Relay for Life beach party last night and I knew I could get the look I wanted from Mon Cheri.  She had JUST the suit I was looking for.  Collabor88 has got me in the “rock-a-billy” mood. I think this look fits the bill… don’t you?

She Does Saucy Surreal Science by the Seaside

0524_009

I had some fun over at SAUCE, the new installation at LEA 25. The LEA sims are provided by the Linden Endowment for the Arts to allow artists a chance to create big installations to share with the SL community. SAUCE is an installation from Maya Paris and it is a fun, colorful, and surreal place to explore.

0524_006

I was ready for anything in this fun outfit featuring two items from Baiastice. The skirt was released at Collabor88 this month and the top is from 2013. The skirt was released with two coordinating tops, but I thought it would be fun to find something different to wear with it. Generally speaking, if items are made by the same designer, they will be the same size and have the same natural waist and so on, so when looking for something to coordinate with mesh clothes, it’s easiest to start with the same designer. The skirt is adorable and comes in a range of prints and solids.

You’ve got to know when to hold ’em

0521_011

Kenny Rogers old classic, The Gambler, has good advice for all of us. Three hundred and eighty years earlier, Shakespeare offered the same advice from Falstaff who said “The better part of valor is discretion.” Of course, if we all knew when to hold them, we could all be rich professional gamblers. One thing that I will be holding is this adorable Marine bikini from Mag Continue reading

The Grind To The End

Getting to to the end of a goal can be a grind. It’s there in sight, but you have to keep going to make it happen.  You can’t let up or you won’t get  there, you have to keep making things happen and being on your game even though it’s so close, SO SO SO CLOSE.

That’s been my week. I had these photos done early Monday AM. I had them editted on Tuesday. But since then, I’ve been driving toward a goal and could barely think until it was done.

The exhaustion of having completed it is upon me, the relief, the feeling of overwhelming AAAAAAAAHHHHH and it shows by how befuddled I am this morning.

I just spent five minutes wondering why typing Cajsa’s name into Google didn’t allow me to send her a message. Continue reading
