I Want To Be Honour McMillan

Envy Aims Very High.
~ Ovid

I want to be brave, and go exploring sims, unearthing new places that are exciting and thrilling. I want to take pictures that are breathtaking and drive other people to seek out the gorgeous sites I’m showing them.

But, I get distracted by how cute I am. Continue reading

LOTD ~ 11 22 11

What a cool date…. 11 ~~ 22 ~~ 11
Thought I’d mention that since I just noticed it when I typed it up there ^^^!
Anywho…. back to my Look of the Day….
First, for my casual look today, I’ve donned a cute sweater and pair of capri jeans from Somnia.

LOTD 11 22 11-1

This warm sweater is from the Striped Queen collection and the pants are from the Tweed Waders Muted collection. Both are new to the store and perfect for a cool fall day.

This jewelry set is one I happened to pick up at the Vintage Fair and is a very versatile piece from Amorous called Refrain.  The jewels are color changing and so is the metal.

Collecting the Fall

 

“It is perhaps a more fortunate destiny to have a taste for collecting shells than to have been born a millionaire.”

~Robert Louis Stevenson

I am making up for lost time this autumn, in that I’m collecting everything I can get my hands on which is fall related and doing seasonal decorating as though there is no tomorrow. I’m not sure exactly who it is for but it’s making me happy so who cares.

I have added fall decorations indoors and out and I have to admit I’m pretty pleased with myself all in all.

This coat from Leri Miles designs caught my attention the moment I put it on, I’m ready for a reason to wear a dressy coat. I do like this one because it’s color change in all it’s parts and you can choose to tone down the brightness of the brooch. Continue reading

SL Weekly Words Challenge – AUTUMN

To me autumn always means the launch of the spookiest time of year, in the month of my birth. It’s absolutely my favorite time of year. I cannot get enough of the macabre or creepy and am constantly drawn to everything haunted and spooky. Continue reading

The Festival Of The Pumpkin Has Begun!

It is possibly my favorite time of the year, the time when we all get excited about playing dress up in the world in which we already play dress up.  Schadenfreude has released the best treat bucket around (yell at strangers TOUCH MY BUCKET! they love it) and if you are the trick or treat sort you’ll need it.

Go inside the Elephant and you will find it inside on the floor, along with a dizzying array of fun new pieces recently released.

Today I’m also wearing my first fall sweater acquisition of 2011 from Somnia. These have been released in a huge rainbow of colors (thanks Sanura) but I was in a fall sort of mood. I should get some sweaters RL. I really don’t own any.

Oh and I’d like to point out, I got these AWESOME boots at G Field last year and was chastised that they were a waste because I’d only wear them once. They are awesome pumpkin print cowboy boots.

Boots this awesome are NEVER a waste.

It's Not That Easy



It’s Not Easy Being Green
It seems you blend in with so many other ordinary things
And people tend to pass you over
cause you’re not standing out
Like flashy sparkles in the water
Or stars in the sky

But green is the color of spring
and green can be cool and friendly like
and green can be big like a mountain
or important like a river
or tall like a tree

This song made me think of creators who truly make nice, very well made items that might not be THE BIG GUNS you see releasing news at Modavia. They’ve got talent, they’ve got verve but they’re not the big fashion houses we’ve spent the past week drooling over.

Regardless, there are some brands that release fun and pretty pieces that are just as NOT TO BE MISSED as anything else. The precious dress from SOMNIA is a great example. Released in MYRIAD colors and on basically EVERY LAYER POSSIBLE (good god Sanura when do you SLEEP)  this is a great example that there are gems laying about.

You just have to get out and go shopping. 🙂

And, dig the awesome guillotine necklace from Bewildebeest and the new statement ring from Dark Mouse. SWEEET New Jewelry Is SWEEEET.

GO SHOPPING!

…and I Wonder If I Ever Cross Your Mind?

I spent my Monday sitting around hatching kittens. I had a few but this is the only one that I kept. I’m slowly turning into the crazy cat lady of SL because once I name them then I am hesitant to send them off to the Menagerie. (This is kitty cat heaven although someone on my plurk line says that Callie Cline has a big KITTY OVEN and that this is where they go.)

This is the only kitten that made the cut, named Diamante after the hilarious fake diamonds from 80s infomercials. My grandma once told me all about these new diamonds that were so cheap. OH YES Grandma. Diamante for EVERYONE (PS they were glass.) Continue reading
