Everything you see ain’t always what it seems

(Listen)

Hi loves!

As you may or may not know, the Chic 2 event began today.  It is the birthday of the event (ergo the 2), and it opened at 4:00pm.  Some amazing creators have joined this event, some of which I am more than happy to be blogging right now.  I didn’t buy too much, as I’m currently broke in RL and cannot afford to be putting as much $ as I used to into SL!  Booo for being an adult & needing to save up for rent! :P   At any rate, here’s the pics & deets for you.

I know we’re lost but soon we’ll be found

(Listen)

Hello hello chickadees!  I have some very exciting news for you!  I was invited to blog Culture Shock 2012 and give you a sneak peak at some of the goodies that you’ll be able to pick up!  This is the second year of Culture Shock, a CHIC Management event sponsored by MODAVIA Productions with proceeds going to Medicins Sans Frontieres (Doctors without Borders).  Last year, over $1 million linden was raised!

Every store has a mandatory participation of one NEW and EXCLUSIVE (for the duration of the event) item that gives 50 – 100% of the profits to the charity!

Culture Shock will be up and running May 4th through May 26th.  Please keep in mind that there is a script gate at the landing point.  Only 50 scripts or less must be worn in order to enter the event to help reduce lag.

Thank you to Keira Seerose, Anyalia Pearl, Kristy Seerose, and Prue Genira for all of your work for this event and charity!

I cannot wait to show you all what I found at culture shock!  Since I have so many different goodies for you, it will be spread among a few posts, with two looks per post.  Have fun and I hope you all enjoy!

I’ve gone cold in the heart

(Listen)

Hi darlings.

So, for those of you who regularly look at my flickr, you’ll have noticed that I suddenly logged in to find nearly half of my inventory gone.  Yes, gone! And LL apparently cannot do anything about it!  What a sad day that was for me!  Luckily, I am realizing which stores I can count on to have failproof re-delivery systems and have managed to be able to get a lot of my most favorite items back!  Instead of re-buying tons of old shit, I opted to buy some new stuff, a piece of which I have decided to blog for you today!

I found this corset (among a few others) on the marketplace today and was so excited.  I LOVE corsets.  I love MESH corsets even more, and these are just honestly beautifully done.  I hope you agree, I will post the pictures below!

No editing was done to these pictures today except for cropping.  Hooray shadows!

I’ll break your heart instead

(Listen)

Hello darlings!  I have some fun stuff for you today that I hope you’ll like!  These new mesh pants I’m wearing are literally my new favorite thing on the planet and I hope you all like them as much as I do.  I have been meaning to blog these wings that I got from LostHaven, but I’ve been too busy RPing to do it!  They’re seriously amazing.  You buy them and they come in both black & white options.  The model I’m displaying below is the seraphim wings (six wings in total) but they also come in a 2 wing version (aka normal angel wings).  Other than that, I don’t have a lot to talk about today, so I’ll just get on with the pictures and hope you all enjoy! :)

Lookin for a lost soul

(Listen)

Hi darlings!  I meant to post yesterday, but I got caught up in a whirlwind of a twelve-hour RP.  Can you say RP addict? :x when I looked at the clock and realized how late it was I couldn’t believe it.  Anyway!  This is what I wore yesterday, which I absolutely loved, because these new mesh skirts from Aura are absolutely fucking to-die-for.  You may in fact get another post from me today *if* I feel the desire to change :P   But until then, here are the pics and details and I hope you like :)

With eyes wide open, I’m dreaming

(Listen)

Hi my little lovebugs!  I know it’s been a while, and I’m sorry for that.  I reformatted my computer and was super lazy about getting photoshop back, etc.  At any rate, I have some new things to show you, along with some old things, and just in general my look is starting to settle down as I make this blog into something that I’m proud of, which is representing my own style and looks.  I sincerely hope you all enjoy this one.  I feel very cute today! :D

I could swallow the seas to wash down all this pride

(Listen)

Hi lovey loves!

Ohhh what do I have for you today?  I can’t really say what inspired my look today.  I felt like being cute, so I stuck on a skirt, but I also felt like kicking ass so I needed some amazing boots and GOS delivered with a new mesh creation that I adore.  So I put it together with some other fun shit and tada!  The pictures were taken at the Rackingham State Hospital, with my sky settings on [TOR] NIGHT – Our Together.  The only editing that was done was to the background (and my cigarette), not to my avatar or the clothing items.  So I hope you enjoy the pictures below! <3

I’m waking up in someone else’s life

(Listen)

Hi darlings!

I know it’s been a while since I’ve posted, shame on me.  I’ve been having some RL stuff going on that’s been stressing me out and while blogging is usually an outlet for me, it hasn’t been very motivating so I took a little week long break.  But today I’m back with some absolutely epic hairs for you!  That’s right, this is purely a hair post!  I am actually getting really tired of blogging the same things everyone else is blogging, so I’ve decided to re-vamp how I’m going to do things from now on.  You all know the festival of sin is going on, so why blog things from it when you’ll see them on 100+ other blogs too!?  This is where I come to be creative and show you what I like to wear.  To be honest, most of what I blog I don’t end up staying in; I put together a look to help store owners advertise their amazing creations.  So I’ve decided to go back to what I love, and you’ll be seeing more blogs from me soon.  BUT TODAY, HAIR!

Lots of new hairs have been released and I bought basically all of them, so I’ve decided to share them with a rather picture heavy post :)   Some are mesh, some are not.  I will detail which ones are below <3

As always, click for larger images!

So, as you can see, lots of new & gorgeous hairs have come out from some amazing stores.  These are all the ones I’ve bought recently and decided I wanted to share them.  As for which hairs are mesh:
First Photo:  Abbey  ::  Second Photo: Girls of Summer, Sybille, Capture, & Izzy  ::  Third Photo: Rivers Run, Barbara
The rest are all typical hairs :)
