Week 10 ~ The Forbidden Forest

(Quick OOC - week 10's colour is avocado)

She couldn't remember why she was doing this... was it a dare, was she cursed, or did she just feel a bit daring? Regardless of why she did it she felt brave... maybe the warmth flooding through her was bravery and not the potion she thought someone had slipped into her drink.

Peering above her, the gates towered high, blocking the entrance.. unlocked and so she pushed gently, the gates swung noiselessly to gape forbodingly in front of her.

Scuttling past the gates, her feet left telling tracks... no one came here so hopefully snowfall would cover them, she thought.
The sign stood, plain and stark, the word forbidden seemed darker and more terrifying yet she pushed on

and once you break the rules, there's no looking back... well maybe one last look..

One of those moods

Today I'm not very well so I shan't wax lyrical too much over the gorgeous finds I've located today for my Look of the Day!
I think we all know by now that The Sea Hole is one of my favourite shops and a notice came out pointing me towards Seraphim which is a blog with an inworld location. The Sea Hole has released some lovely dresses to the people of the in world Seraphim group!
I pretty much clicked everything they had and mishmashed it together. The rest of my outfit are from the sales on right now or cheapies I've grabbed!

[below] a close up of the hair, make up, earrings and eyepatch.
Why an eyepatch you ask? Well I saw it, loved it, saw the price, loved it more, had to have it!

Making History Horrible

Apologies to all my non-existent readers about my absence, I've moved back home after my wonderful boyfriend got a new job about 200 miles from me and packing and shifting 2 years worth of rubbish out of my childhood bedroom meant my laptop gathered a fine layer of dust while I slaved away!

I'm channelling my inner Victorian due to my slight obsession with Horrible Histories' Savage Songs!

And the fantastic socks are another new obsession thanks to Etoile! (plus my legs looked rather bare!)

And the shoes are my first experience of mesh!! so I'm rather proud of my little laptop surviving all this!

And these gorgeous eyes are not my normal colour but are a group gift!

Doing lines

"I must not tease the fae, I must not tease the fae, I must not...."

So one of my favourite shops, The Sea Hole, has put out a hunt item in the form of this gorgeous little playsuit, I blogged it on The Cat today in summery fashion, heels, sunnies and at the beach, while in my heart of hearts I KNEW when I put it on it had strands of DNA and carbon chains all over it!
So I had to redeem myself and blog it how I feel it should be blogged, and that's at school!
Now I know things I'm wearing have been doing the blog rounds (which drives me slightly insane at times!) put I doubt anywhere put together in this way!

The Writing Desk was made by a very good friend who made it for a roleplay in Avilion and thankfully put it on the Marketplace!

I wanted a satchel á la the 1930's but they're not all too easy to find so I grabbed this cute rucksack which is fully mod so I did a bit of fitting to myself which is thankfully nice and easy!

And what's the betting Miss Rosemarie Indigo of Banana Banshee is going to murder me when she finds out I've bought the freckles she sells? (Mine went missing) and the eyes were from the lucky board so hopefully she can't kill me for that!

Boho Summer

I apologise in advance for the rubbish first photo, a clearer view of this sumptuous skirt can be seen here but SL recently just hates me!Down to the goods though!
So I'm in a bit of a hippy mood, never lived in the 60's (70's or 80's for that matter) but my soul screams retro and vintage and to abate it's terror I spend what I can on gorgeous bits of vintage!
I Blogged on The Cat about the gorgeous skin Im wearing so I won't wax lyrical about it

Saturday's Saffron

The sun is shining, it's a lovely day (and yes I saw Avenue Q last night... again!) but the sun IS shining and it IS a lovely day but I've forgotten my sunscreen and I'm stuck in doors though I'd rather be cool behind the thick old walls of my house than roasting myself with nothing to do..

So Saffie's taking my place and going outdoors, she's also picked up some great bargains!

And now she has nothing to do but sit on a swing and let the cool summer breeze swing her

Importantly, one of my favourite shops "The Sea Hole" is having a sale, one item of each clothing line is 50L and they're gorgeous, I love The Sea Hole because it's clear so much effort goes into their work as the details are just fantastic. It's also quirky but classy, no nipple slippage or butt crack showing in these capris and summer blouse.

Blouse and Capris @ The Sea Hole - 50L each
Sandals @ BF - 150L
Hair @ Philotic Energy - Blogger Exclusive but loads of lovely hair still
Skin @ Glam Affair - previous freebie
Bangles @ Chuculet - no longer available

Hope the hot weather is good for you all

Skirts...

So.. a little back story, I nosed onto a blog and I've realised a pet peeve of mine are people who don't make effort with their blog posts and just take a quick snap shot og a midnight mania board or an offer. Don't blog it if you don't like it!
I wish I could be more articulate about these gorgeous skirts so I guess I'll just let the pictures do the talking

Skirt A The Sea Hole
Skirt B Zaara
Skin Tuli
Hair Tiny Bird - Closed :(

I think I'm just trying to reflect the mood I want to be in, I want to have a full face of make up, perfect hair and a gorgeous, floaty summer dress on with my gorgeous boyfriend by my side. Instead I'm in all black, no makeup and my boyfriend's in Birmingham. sucks.
