It's beginning to look a lot like.....

Christmas!!!!

And boy can you feel the chill in the air!!


This stylish ensemble probably wasn't a great idea for this weather, especially considering my little cottage is snowed in!

Dress @ e! (group gift)
Hair @ Magika (250L)
Tights @ Jane
Jewellery by [glow] @ The Dressing Room Fusion
Shoes by Slink @ The Dressing Room Fusion


So I decided to warm up a bit in my new sweater (tulip) and scarf (pesca) from the arcade


I have to say, I love this skin I got from the Arcade it's the skinnery and it's called winter and I love the pink nose and cheeks, I wore it with MONS sunny smoke eyeshadow (from the new dressing room fusion)

Redecorating at the gatcha

I've not been to the arcade gatcha before, too afraid of spending too much money so I've only got gifties from friends who have too many of one thing but I decided to brave the gatchas, all the gatchas I used were under 100L

A mexican winter

coldLogic's "new" release (new to me on my belated blogging) has a brilliantly mexican style to it. Ok, so mexican to me is Santa Fe at Disneyland Paris ergo highly stereotyped


The CheerNo boots I picked up at The Dressing Room's last rotation suited perfectly, they're men's boots but have a resize script. I love cowboy boots, I've always wanted a pair in RL and I love the tiled design on these

A Fallen Angel

This post has been bugging me for ages, I suppose it'll be a work in progress because I'm not sure if I'm happy with it

Classy evening out

This is quite possibly the best item I've ever seen from 22769, the detailing on the Chinese silk styling is absolutely stunning and the mesh falls perfectly. The dress is for 11am at Fair



I bought these shoes from the *G Field* hallowe'en sale (orange and black items half off) for 100L and they come with a touch menu which changes the buckle, strap styles and sole colour. For not being mesh they are rather nifty and can be adapted for any outfit.

A change of scenery

I felt like a bit of a change, I've been human too long

I bought this stunning centaur attachment in beetlebones, it was only 300L and you can buy it in 4 different colours, i chose sable as it suited my ginger-ness


The horns came free


I really enjoyed taking pictures of a less human side of myself

cold winter

It's going to be a cold winter but thankfully coldLogic has some winter warmers for sale to keep me nice and cozy!

I pottered around my garden in my new get up



plurked a bit

read with a nice cup of coffee

and generally wasted the day

New skin - NSFW

In my whole time on second life I'd only once bought a full price skin and that was back in the day.
A good friend showed off her new skin and I really liked it so I headed over to the skinnery and had a look around.
The skins are lovely, incredibly unique and well made. They cost a bit more than I'd usually spend on anything in SL but it was definitely worth it. At 990L they're hardly a bargain but the work that has gone into them is clear.



There's a bit of nudity after the break

If only...

If this wasn't so bitty and grainy because my graphics card is ready to conk out this could be a semi-decent picture if I do say so myself

Bring on the orange

I've never celebrated Hallowe'en in real life, never been trick or treating and I've never been to a Hallowe'en party.
But I absolutely adore this cute dress and boots set by *G Field* I don't think I'll take this off for a long time


I love the cutesy Peter Pan collar and the design is flawless, possibly my favourite mesh piece ever


I'm wearing the exile hair again, in honesty I didn't really like it at first but I've teamed it with MONS eyeliner which gives it a Dusty Springfield feel to it.
The bow comes with the FREE outfit


And the shoesssssss!!! I have these boots in brown and pink and the hallowe'en versions are amazing, I think the spider hanging from the cuff is a special touch!


The shoes aren't free but are really reasonably priced, under 100L (apologies, when trying to find out how much SL crashed on me!)

Casual to Couture

 A while ago I blogged about Valentina E. Couture, when I wrote that post Evangeline Eames had just started making mesh, since then she has come on so far, the two dresses I'm showing today are from her two brands.
The first dress is from Valentina E at the Vinyl Cafe I've always been a fan of this store and the monthly group gifts are promised to be exclusive mesh

The rigging is done so well, I'm wearing an XS in both the dresses


This gorgeous dress is from Valentina E. Couture and it's a subscribo gift (the bow comes with it too) I love the colour!



The hair was a group gift from Exile!

Murder 1

The ditzy blonde, always the first to die in a horror movie... well not her, she dip-dyed the tips of her hair, especially for this hallowe'en
Creeping through the darkened room she spotted a bloody handprint, a hatchet glinted in the moonlight hanging from a bloodied coat...


Stumbling away she glanced around in horror, wondering when she would feel a hatchet between her shoulder blades...
Her bare feet slipped in the glistening pool of blood that lingered, almost invisible outside the rays of moonlight


Cracking her head on the floor she really wished she'd worn shoes that evening...

A/W re-decoration

 A bit of redecoration here and there!



This lovely set was from collabor88 by Cheeky Pea (damn her for making such amazing stuff!)
The skirt is the October gift from e! (group join fee)
The lovely hair (i think) I've blogged before and is from Truth, I'm pretty sure it was free

Enjoy!

Real Life meets Second Life

I'm clearly a little belated with everything with no excuse!
But I have redecorated my house though I can bet once I get to Collabor88 it'll change again (Cheeky Pea, need I say more?!)

This dress is e!'s September gift (should still be available - remember join fee)
I love it because it looks so like the navy dress from Victoria Beckham's A/W collection!
I love how RL fashion filters through to SL and how it's available to everyone!


My hair is another Truth release, again another RL fashion filtering to SL, I wish my RL hair was long enough for a fishtail braid! My only qualm with this lovely hair is that I had to adjust my brow size because some poses make it poke through but otherwise, gorgeous!

Autumn's Calling

Autumn's here! The leaves are falling and warm wear is IN!

But warm shouldn't mean drab or dull!
This gorgeous skirt from 22769 is their contribution to The Gallery Gift Shop and has all of the stunning shades of autumn!


I teamed it with E!'s August group gift (still available, group join fee). I can see this shade of blue being in this season and echoed in RL and SL
I wore a yellow dress tucked into my skirt which was a gift from Cynful's subscribo

Week 34

I'm doing this week's inbetween my catch up.

I thought Russet would be a really difficult colour to do but whilst clearing through my inventory I found this lovely dress from Cupcakes. Unfortunately I'm not sure if it's a group gift or for sale or whatnot so I'd advise having a nosey around the store


My hair is a new release from Exile, it's so classic and looks really lovely, I'd advise getting a demo and checking it out on yourself!

Old, New, Borrowed, Blue - Blogger Challenge!

So.. I don't know how many people will do this but I thought I'd do a blogger challenge.

Hunt in your inventory and find something old, older than 6 months would be best

Then find something new/buy something new.

Borrow something from a friend, be it an item of clothing, a pose, anything.

And find something blue!

Throw it together and blog it and if you have flickr, post it here





Old - Epoque hair

New - The most beautiful ear cuff by [glow] @ TDR Blue

Borrowed - I borrowed my favourite Julliebear's skysphere as a setting!

Blue - This gorgeous nautical top by Baisatice @ TDR Blue
