Bangles

I picked up this free outfit which isn't my usual style but I teamed it with some super cute (free) accessories and I got a fab Arabian Nights theme going on!

Bare All For Breast Cancer - NSFW

Baring All For Cancer


In fact, baring all for any kind of Cancer. Because Cancer is devastating, The Big C.
In January I lost a friend, a colleague and an angel to Cancer.
Katie was beautiful, strong and loved. She fought her battle with dignity and lived every moment of the last few months of her life. She lived more than anyone I know.
This facebook group shows how many lives she touched, people she had never met, people she didn't even know.
Katie was well cared for, she had immense support and thanks to the NHS she had all the care she thoroughly deserved. Which leads on to the true nature of my post.

Squinternet of the SL brand Donna Flora has Cancer, her breast cancer has metastasized into bone cancer.
Please keep reading below the cut, there is a NSFW picture below

Disneybound - Flotsam and Jetsam

Flotsam and Jetsam is a friends post however I found some lovely outfits that complimented the theme perfectly.
My necklace is Gemini by Perception @ Zodiac, which was apt as Gemini is the sign of the twins!

Disneybound - Merida

I am Merida!
And I'll be shooting for my own hand!
- Merida, Brave

If you've not yet watched Brave you really should, so delighted to hear that Merida will be the first Pixar Disney Princess crossover, it's her coronation on May 11th!

I really wanted to use this huge necklace on Merida and Kuzco but it's Celtic and fitted Merida better.

Bear necklaces/bracelets are so hard to find, designers need to get on that!! Instead I used Perception's Sagittarius necklace which is so delicately beautiful, the exact opposite of what a Bow and Arrow should be.... unless you're Merida

Disneybound - Dory

I suffer from short term memory loss
I forget things almost instantly
It runs in my family
... at least I think it does......
.....where are they.....?
- Dory, Finding Nemo

Dory is quite possibly the best Disney character to date (minus Stitch), is it sad that I remembered that quote off the top of my head?
Blue, Black and Yellow are Dory's colours, the colour of the regal tang!

The Beauty of Aphrodite

On a golden dawn in the dawn sublime

Of years ere the starts had ceased to sing,
Beautiful out of the sea-deeps cold
Aphrodite arose - the Flower of Time - 
 - Aphrodite by Victor James Daley

I can't even begin to describe how beautiful this dress is, I don't want to take it off

I know I must wax lyrical about 22769 but this dress is hands down their most stunning creation

I don't think I ever want to take this outfit off

Something like this has been playing on my mind for this blog for ages.

This dress is one of coldLogic's newer releases and seemed perfect for it

I am wearing some lovely shoes too but they weren't in shot, boo!! I shall blog them later though!

Mirror Me

Her friend who smiles when she loves
who cries when she breaks
who mirrors her every moment
who follows her to her fate

I love this mirror from Zinnias, it's a new release and the rustic twigs and oriental lilies with baby's breath are beautifully crafted.
The pink worked well with my new Fifty Linden Friday picture purchase from Pilot!
I usually don't go for anything to do with aeroplanes but I think it brings in a hint of my RL partner because he used to fly gliders

I'd say my only concern with the mirror is it's sculpted and takes up more LI than mesh does but I think the detailing is worth it!

Aquarius Part 2

A bit more from Aquarius at Zodiac

This dress is a Valentina E Couture dress, her mesh is getting better and better, I love how this dress falls, it looks like I'm in constant movement.

I am wearing the dress in XXS which is much smaller than my usual size so do try a demo.

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

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!

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!

An Unmellow Yellow Store Project, #5

"I'm just mad about Saffron and she's just mad about me"

This week's 52 WoCC was MADE for me! So to honour the lovely Luna Jubilee I decided to nosey around bang! poses' new store build which is awesome!

I dressed down to keep with the rustic feel of the location which is rural and so green, it's perfect to take photos around. Luna has really outdone herself.

I just adored the weasels that happily roam around the land as well, I love weasels, stoats and ferrets so having a sit down to watch really appealed to me.
Luna is incredibly talented it her pose making which I've blogged here and I'm looking forward to the changing faces of bang! and I'm only diappointed that I didn't blog her last build!
