Caught Daydreaming

I love those moments when you just plop down somewhere to set up a scene and I realize that the pose I just randomly sat in captured my mood perfectly.  I often find myself staring out the window when it's cold outside and daydreaming of the beach, or a warm fire, or cuddles with a special someone and today is one of those days where I seem to be doing a whole lot of nothing besides staring out the window.  When I spotted this pose in the Battered Chair from unKindness I knew I had found the place to capture my mood.

Drifting off into the shadows I can hear the waves lapping at the beach as it creeps forward as the tide comes in; the warmth of the sun on my skin and the feel of your hand clasped in mine as we walk along the beach.  Perfectly at peace with a smile on my face, the chill of the storm on the horizon fades from my bones and for a moment I am caught in a daydream.

Send in the Clowns

If you love the carnival music; the crunch of peanut shells under your feet; the smell of cotton candy and hot buttered popcorn; and the distinct, yet distant aroma of wild animals and hay; then Cirque de Seraphim is one event you MUST check out!  The event covers two sims with TONS of designers all offering goodies catering to the circus theme.  Now as most people know, I am terrified of clowns, but that is really exclusive to the creepy wig, red nose wearing weirdos you can often find making balloon animals at children's birthday parties.  Luckily for me, those are not the clowns at Cirque de Seraphim!  My love of the "sad" clown teamed up with my desire to always be a Ring Leader for my post today!

I went to the event with the idea of picking up an outfit and ended up getting a lot more than just ONE!  Of course a Circus themed event would feature jackets like this one from BOOM, but needless to say, the detailing on this made it the winner.  The fit on this jacket is fantastic and didn't break in all my moving and posing, which is always a plus!  I knew when I saw the jacket that I had just picked up a skirt that would match PERFECTLY from Chapter Four.  I love this skirt, it fits perfectly with very little alpha "peeking."  And what Ring Leader ensemble would be complete without a Top Hat and Crop, which RACK Poses provides in the "Puttin' On a Show" pose set.  The crop lines up perfectly in the poses and I didn't have to move the hat to make it look perfect!  Matched up with the Rope Heels from Clamberry and the look was complete!  So send in the clowns!
