A bit o' 52 weeks and a bit o' H: YS

I've joined a new roleplay sim called Hogwarts: Your Story, it's based on the Harry Potter novels but 21 years on from the books. The sim is absolutely gorgeous and this is a quick picture of Ravenclaw tower with Saff being a member of Ravenclaw house. The sim is members only at the moment but The Alley Shoppes can be accessed by everyone for uniforms and the like!
[find uniform credits at the bottom]

So it's come to week 4 of the 52 weeks of colour challenge and this week's colour is iron, now Luna's iron is quite pale whereas I see iron being a dark silvery-grey
So my iron contribution is this tee-shirt dress and ma silvery school shoes!

Also, below, is one of my new weekend dresses as during the week and in classes at Hogwarts full uniform is required but I thought I'd go shopping for some tasteful dresses and some nice warm socks!
So Many Styles is having a sale so I thought I'd get some pretty outfits from there. I particularly adore the beautiful emerald dress, the ruffles and high neck make it less "sexed up" than most of the clothes on SL and hopefully make me look more like a 14 y/o!

52 Weeks of Colour Challenge - Week 3

This is belated by a few days, 1. because it was a tricky colour to pin and 2. I've had exams and essays etc. etc. also family over at the weekend, many many excuses!

So I found one outfit, then found something else in my inventory and so decided to combine it all and hope it was Electric Indigo! I could have used one of my fae dresses but I'm trying to be more human now and again!

Coat @ The Vinyl Cafe (1L now group only, but worth it for a daily dollarbie, will be 50L from tomorrow)
Dress @ Cracked Mirror - MESH (usually 300L this dress 100L and is soooooo gorgeous!!)
Tights @ Jane (I think 60L now...?)
Top @ fri.day (past gift)

Glasses @ ArisAris (90L for three pairs)

52 Weeks of Colour Challenge - Week 2

Week 2 brings us coral, and in all honesty coral is one of my least favourite colours, it's up there with peach and brown. Originally I was going to use my favourite skin as it has a beautiful coral coloured lipstick to it, it's quaint, flawless and suptuous... then while trawling my inventory I found some nice blushers which added to the overall corally tone

I knew I owned one sweater which is coral in colour but saw someone else used it, call me sad but I wanted to do something that I hadn't seen someone else use (seeing after is fine but not before!)
I also debated using the lovely coral Hucci shoes I blogged a few days ago but thought that slightly cheeky

So what should I find when sorting my dresses into colour groups than this soft, summery coral dress (yes yes I know it's winter still!)

So I still used my fave skin and the blusher, read the credits for more details

Skin @ Mamboo Chic (past lucky board, new one there now)
Blusher Apple Cheek Blush @ a.e.meth (past freebie, now 50L)
Dress @ S@bbia (group gift, still available)
Hair by Exile @ The Dressing Room Blue (70L)

A Mesh Mish Mash

Two blog posts in a week?! I'm clearly procrastinating from this final essay!

On The Cat I blogged about the jeans and the black tee as a combo then went for a wander back at The Dressing Room and The Dressing Room Blue
(warning in advance, I'm not doing a final bit with all the links so read well!)

And I found a VERY cute mesh skirt by R.icielli and a sweet pink top by Tee*fy (which again proves red heads can wear pink!) available at The Dressing Room and The Dressing Room Blue

The hair is a subscribo gift at Exile which I've tinted  a bit orange to suit my ginger-ness

Teamed with my pretty top and jeans in the same at paper.doll (all sale items either 25L or 50L) and my looovely new mesh shoes (subscribo item at Hucci) I look fah-bulous dah-link!

Every item I'm wearing is between 0 - 70L$

NB The picture of the black tee and union flag skirt has been flipped over so the flag is on the other side and the hair parts the other way as per the image on the right

Happy New Year Everyone!
I made a Second Life New Years resolution which was to blog more and what better way to make me blog more than to start the 52 Weeks of Colour Challenge by Luna Jubilee?!

Week 1 is Champagne so here's my contribution!

Oooooh and a PS I'm getting married! I got proposed to in Disneyland Paris!

Faux Fox Fur Kills?!

I love myself a little bit of Collabor88! I also love myself a bit of plurk so when I saw anya.ohmai's picture of what she was to release for collabor88's prom theme I fell in love. She had produced a really quaint set of fox stole's (like what you'd see in the 30's), I forgot all about them until I saw on plurk that people had been griefing the collabor88 creators for this and that and they'd decided to take on ohmai's "a little foxy"  set by accusing her of animal cruelty.

Some people really need to get a life and realise in SL all fox stoles are FAUX as it is pixels...

So I decided to strip of for a good cause, even in Winter I am a die hard Greenpeace supporter so I thought I'd take this opportunity to promote faux fur as it saves many furry cute little animal lives!

Now don't forget it is winter and Saff is enjoying being wrapped up warm

And in the nud it is FREEZING!!!

But it's all for a great cause!
