"Eyes on fire, Your spine is ablaze, Felling any foe with my gaze." Featuring the new Powder Pack release and Persefona

I started blogging to fill the gap created when I became disabled and no longer could work a traditional job, and because it gave me the chance to dip my feet back into the fashion and interior design worlds I had been separated from for years. At one point I was trying to blog for too many creators and it became a bit overwhelming, to be honest, and no longer served it's purpose of relieving stress and helping me to feel like I still could contribute to society. When my health took a turn for the worse I made the hard decision to step away from some of my blogging responsibilities and with that has come a sense of freedom. I have more time to concentrate on each and every photo and post, giving me the ability to better promote those who have chosen me to represent them with my blog. And with this freedom I have finally been able to work on my photo and editing skills, and with this has come recognition from artists I have followed and admired. Though I was never really looking for it, because as I said, I blog for my sponsors and I, and as long as they love what I do, I am content. But to see my photos soaring over a thousand views and hundreds of likes makes my heart burst with joy, because it means other people appreciate the artwork I create, and often times follow my blog, allowing them to also follow my real life, not just the fashion and decor of Second Life. The passion I originally started with has returned in abundance and I continue to watch and read tutorials about photography and photoshop, furthering my knowledge and allowing my art to grow.

One of the hardest things for me over the years in regards to photography on Second Life was the close up photo. Before I had my good computer everything got choppy up close, and since I couldn't render materials, I could never show off jewelry or makeup very well and it broke my heart. Once I did an upgrade on the computer I suddenly could do things I had never dreamed of with my photos and the settings on Second Life, but still the great close up alluded me. Everything always looked disproportionate and out of focus and I continued to struggle. After reading a few photo tutorials and learning a bit more about Firestorm I suddenly had perfectly proportioned, clear close ups and could show off jewelry and makeup like I had always wanted to, and this photo is a perfect example!

Eyes on Fire - August Powder Pack - LeLutka

August 1st marked the release of the Powder Pack for LeLutka August edition and I had been dying to dive into the boxes, but my schedule hadn't permitted that until yesterday. This is probably my favorite pack since I started getting them, so I know they are expensive but do yourself a favor and go grab one, or make sure to reserve the next one, because you won't ever be disappointed. Today I am showing off gorgeous new eyes from Avi Glam, fresh new skin from Essences, and makeup from Zibska, Arise, and OHeMO. One of the things I love the most about the last full month of Summer, is the trend towards a redheads colour palette! It's the time of year when the palettes meet and meld together in some of the most spectacular of ways and I absolutely fell in love with this combination! As always Zibska has released perfect eye shadows that remind me of the sunsets in Arizona. The colours are blended well and I love the sparkles and shine, especially combined with this subtle brown lipstick from Arise. As most of you know, I have been an IKON eye addict, and I truly have never worn anything else because I love the shine and wide variety of colours. Avi Glam has blown me away with the Lure eyes, a new release for the August LeLutka Power Pack, with their gorgeous shine, fabulous colour choices and fantastic HUD to change the colours, size, and depth, making them incredibly versatile and you can bet I will be heading over to check out more eye releases!
One of the thing photographers often have happen in real life, are bokeh lights. They occur a lot around water and where there are lights and reflections and can add depth and shine to your Second Life photos, but they have to be added after through an editing program. Persefona has released a Bokeh Photography gacha set for the latest round of Cosmopolitan and I loved playing with them via the hud, changing their glow and size allowing me to create the lighting for this photo without having to add them via after effects. All photographers need to add this to their box of prop goodies, you won't be disappointed, and you can bet I will be avidly watching Persefona from now on! I hope you enjoy this look and this month's Powder Pack as much as I did and have fun shopping!

I'm gonna show you crazy! - Featuring Tameless, Glam Affair, IT!

Thankfully SL decided to let me log on long enough to get you all the information for my post today, which means I got all excited and immediately switched windows excited to blog and suddenly found myself faced with another round of writer's block.  It is starting to get a bit frustrating, especially when I don't get to blog that much anymore!  So while I was waiting I happened to stumble into a discussion with my best friend about the word "crazy", and how it can often spur people to act a bit nuts just to spite those who think they have gone off their rocker!  With the very edgy feel of this new hair from Tameless, last months release from Glam Affair for PowderPack, and of course the new necklace from IT!, the discussion fit, and the perfect tune started to play through my head, which means I just had to put it on repeat for a few and then share with you!


There's a war inside my head
Sometimes I wish that I was dead, I'm broken
So I call this therapist
And she said, "Girl, you can't be fixed just take this."

I'm tired of trying to be normal
I'm always over-thinking
I'm driving myself crazy
So what if I'm fucking crazy?

And I don't need your quick fix
I don't want your prescriptions
Just 'cause you say I'm crazy
So what if I'm fucking crazy?
Yeah, I'm gonna show you

Loco, maniac, sick bitch, psychopath,
Yeah, I'm gonna show you
I'm gonna show you,
Yeah, I'm gonna show you
Mental out my brain, bat shit, go insane,
Yeah, I'm gonna show you
I'm gonna show you
Yeah, I'm gonna show you

I've been searching city streets
Trying to find the missing piece like you said
And I searched hard only to find,
There's not a single thing that's wrong with my mind

Yeah, I'm tired of tryna be normal
I'm always over-thinking
Driving myself crazy
So what if I'm fucking crazy?

And I don't need your quick fix
I don't want your prescriptions
Just 'cause you say I'm crazy
So what if I'm fucking crazy?

I'm gonna show you

Loco, maniac, sick bitch, psychopath,
Yeah, I'm gonna show you
I'm gonna show you,
Yeah, I'm gonna show you
Mental out my brain, bat shit, go insane,
Yeah, I'm gonna show you
I'm gonna show you
I'm gonna show you

Hearts on fire

It happens to be one of those days where I can't seem to find my words since my mind is in such a jumble. For the last couple of months the schools in Flagstaff, one in particular, have been the target of what I would call school terrorism. Notes have been found talking of school shootings etc, with dates and targets, and it has everyone on edge. For the second day in a row, my son's girl friends school has gone into shutdown under threats and more notes found and I find my brain isn't on work as much as it is on the safety of not only my own children but all of those effected by these circumstances. We all have drawn a bit closer in the last few days and I am in contact more frequently with my man, basically pulling my family close to me like the mother hen I am. So excuse me for not having much to say the past few days, my mind is occupied with all kinds of things right now, which means anything I write turns into a jumbled mess. So enjoy the song, and check out these amazing new releases from Hudson's, Tameless, Essences and more!

Lyrics:
well i don't know how and i don't know why
but when something's living well you can't say die
you feel like laughing but you start to cry
i don't know how and i don't know why

well i don't have many and i don't have much
in fact i don't have any but i've got enough
'cos i know those eyes and i know that touch
i don't have many and i don't have much

but oh darling my hearts on fire
oh darling my hearts on fire
oh darling my hearts on fire
for you

well i don't know where and i don't know when
but i know we'll be lovers again
i'll see you some day before the end
i don't know where and i don't know when

oh darling my hearts on fire
oh darling my hearts on fire
oh darling my hearts on fire

you know those love songs will break your heart
you know those love songs will break your heart
you know those love songs will break your heart

oh darling my hearts on fire

Pardon Me! - *Arcane Spellcaster*AK-Creations, IT!, Tameless, Dark Passions

After a long 11 days away for Spring Break with the kids, the youngest turning 18 and a few other bumps and glitches, including considering walking away from blogging, I returned yesterday with a bit of a better attitude, which I needed to unpack all of the stuff I have gotten behind on in the last two weeks!  As the blossoms start to swell on the trees here in the mountains, and the temperatures soar into the 70's, I was delighted to see all of the new Spring releases from so many creators, including this adorable ensemble from *Arcane Spellcaster*AK-Creations.  The Callia outfit comes in sizes and appliers for all your favorite bodies and I am sure you will love the fit and the detailing along the top and body of the bodysuit as well as the gorgeous round rump in these jeans!


Due to my three month long absence,  I haven't had a chance to blog many of the creations from IT! so I got all excited when I saw the newest jewelry design went perfectly with this ensemble!  The Luxury Collection is exclusively at this cycle of Designer Circle, which happens to be the 150th round, bringing you all kinds of goodies for this anniversary round, including this wonderful set.  The necklace, bracelets and earrings come with HUD's to control the metals and gems, making it an incredibly versatile set that just has to be added to your jewelry box today!  And if you happen to love to change your nail polish with every outfit like I do, then you are in need of the newest release from Dark Passions, currently an exclusive for Totally Top Shelf!  I love the moons, but you have several different color choices without the moons as well, so do yourself a favor and go grab these new designs, the colors are to die for, and perfect for Spring here in the Northern Hemisphere!


And if you happen to be looking for some new do's, then head on over to Tameless and check out the newest creations from Nita Bracken!  As always the prices are amazing and the color packs are to die for, and this new side swept look is perfect for this Spring, so what are you waiting for?!  As you head on out to do some shopping make sure to add a new hair to your collection from Tameless, you won't be disappointed!

"Lunge and thrust to pout and pucker into the face of the beguiled"

Of course I am an 80's baby, being 43 they were the height of my teens and I wasn't your typical cheerleader as I have discussed before.  I listened to what most called punk or alternative and though it didn't majorly influence my style, torn fishnets, short skirts, combat boots, chains and lots of black found their way into my daily wardrobe.  I do believe you can browse through old photo albums and find me all dressed up for a dance still with my leather and metal bracelets on.  I had to keep my edge people!  This month AnaMarkova Designs brings you all kinds of wonderful releases at Designer Showcase including this fabulous ensemble that took me straight back to my youth and Siouxsie's voice started tumbling through my head!

Peek a Boo
Creeping up the backstairs
Slinking into dark stalls
Shapeless and slumped in bath chairs
Furtive eyes peep out of holes
She has many guises
She'll do what you want her to
Playing dead and sweet submission
Cracks the whip deadpan on cue
Peek-a-boo, peek-a-boo
Peek-a-boo, peek-a-boo
Reeking like a pig sty
Peeling back and gagging free
Flaccid ego in your hand
Chokes on dry tears, can you understand?
She's jeering at the shadows
Sneering behind a smile
Lunge and thrust to pout and pucker
Into the face of the beguiled


The top and skirt fit perfectly with my Maitreya body with very few alphas turned on, which of course ease in dressing is always a plus, especially now with the mesh bodies, that isn't always trueThis ensemble is currently only available at Designer Showcase until the 26th of the month, then will go back to full price in the store, so hurry on over and get yours today!  While there, check out the other designs AND AnaMarkova also provides one of the group gifts this month, so what are you waiting for??!  Go get your hands on amazing fashions!

Looking for Warhol

.PENUMBRA. Fashion Week SS15 will be wrapping up it's amazing week tomorrow evening which means you have very little time left to head on over to the event and catch a fashion show or two; and to get your hands on some of the hottest designs for the season before others on the grid!  SlackGirl has out done herself this round with tons of new and exclusive releases for the event! 


The bohemian in me went absolutely crazy over this outfit and I wondered if I had been transported back in time to Andy Warhol's loft!  The pants and heels combination are to die for and the very bold, bright abstract print has a very retro feel.  Toss on the chunky bracelets and gorgeous head scarf and you are ready to set out for any occasion this summer!  Tomorrow make sure you head on over to the venue for a magnificent finale fashion show, you don't want to miss it!

Spring Chic

Sneak Peek opened for it's newest round on the 25th and if you haven't swung by you are truly missing out on the most fashion forward designs from some of the grids hottest creators.  Zanze has released the "Augustine" collection exclusively at the event which includes the dress and coat in a variety of colors to mix and match.


As usual the attention to detail is stunning as are the coordinating color combinations.  I love the ease of access with Zanze's delivery syste.  The HUD is where you grab your size, and then select your colors.  It is brilliant and honestly takes up a lot less space in the inventory, which is always a plus!  I love the cut of this dress and the perfectly over sized coat allowing you to still see the alluring dip of the waist and silhouette of the body.  Neither the jacket or the dress had an issue when posing or walking, making this an excellent ensemble for those of us always on the move on the grid.

Coat and Dress - Zanze - Augustine @ Sneak Peek
Shoes - MODA - Selene Studded
Earrings - Pure Poison - Nathalie - Black


Hair - Tameless - Wren NEW!!!
Skin - DeeTaleZ - Leyna
Liner - DeeTaleZ - Black - E
Eyes - IKON - Hope - Glass
Lashes - Gaeline - Felicia
Feet - Slink - High
Nails - League - French

I spotted this hair in an ad on Facebook the other day from Tameless and have been dying to have an ensemble to show you all that would make me HAVE to go grab it from the store.  And the "Augustine" coat and dress were a PERFECT excuse!  I love the delicate, almost classic swoop of this hair paired with the edgy shaved side.  For those of you who love the nod to the more vintage looks, but love the spice of today, then the "Wren" hair will be an excellent addition to your hair collection.  Do yourself a favor and head on over to Sneak Peek to see all the offerings, it will be well worth the trip!!

Have a wonderfully wicked rest of your day and remember to always stay true to your style and make today's fashions work for you!

My Vogue Valentine's opened on the 14th and if you haven't taken a stroll to check out the goodies then you are truly missing out.  Deceitful Innocence has become a creator I get excited about every time I see a new release.  The combinations in the ensembles is always perfect with an amazing attention to detail and the "Cupid's Assassin," one of the new and exclusive releases for the event, is no exception.  The ensemble is complete from head to to with the hair, jacket, shorts, boots and bow pack.  The bow is not a weapon, it is a gorgeous backup with the bow and arrows attached.

Have a wonderfully wicked rest of your day and remember to always stay true to your style and make today's fashions work for you!

Last days of the Snowbunny

I know that some of the country is still digging out from under inches and sometimes feet of snow, and the slopes are covered with snowbunnies from all over the world.  But soon, those hills will be covered in lush green grass and the chill of this Winter will be a distant memory.  So before the last ski is put up for the year let me bring to you an adorable outfit from Tameless!


The "Hoodlem" outfit is a complete ensemble of top, jeans, boots and a hood for the top, but I chose to use this fantastic hair from Catwa today because it compliments the outfit perfectly!  I loved that the cuffs on this sweater were not hard to fit or adjust and I have to say, the hard nip peeking through is a great detail on this outfit!  Tameless has been releasing a lot of new ensembles this last month, so make sure to head by the store and check out all the new releases as well!


The BOSL Hunt started yesterday at participating sims and Glint has put out this gorgeous heart necklace for the hunt, available for both men and women!  The wonderful owner of Glint has offered free monogramming on the heart as long as the necklace is purchased during the hunt.  Head on over and grab yours and make sure to show that special someone how much you care and get it monogrammed!  And while there grab these fantastic leather bracelets as well.

Broke down palace

I remember Momma used to tell me I lived in fairytales and that the only thing he would ever bring me is a broke down palace.....  I guess, in the end, she was right.


The With Love Fair opened on the 6th and if you haven't been by you really should head on over especially with Valentine's Day only a couple days away now.  Tameless has released the "Open Heart" outfit as an exclusive for the event in red and black.  The ensemble consists of the top, jeans, bracelets and shoes.  For all of the applier lovers, this outfit comes with pretty much every one you could ever need.  I love the detailing on these jeans, and the cuffs were not a pain in my ass to adjust, which made me very happy.  The top is mesh and comes in the standard sizes ensuring a perfect fit every time.  Take some time and wander on over to the event and grab one in your favorite color and when there peruse the other goods from some amazing creators!

Looking for My Caesar

I hope you are all having a good day, I know mine has been relaxing so far and I hope it stays that way.  In case you haven't been paying attention, Tameless, is making a lot more than just hairs lately.  From full avatars, to hair to wonderful outfits and accessories, Tameless has become a one-stop shop of sorts.  When I unpacked my most recent boxes I was blown away by the quality and styling of the "Goddess" dress, so I just had to share it with you all today!


The Goddess dress is a wonderful mesh that flows nicely around the avatar and doesn't break or stretch when you are walking or posing.  A lot of dresses in this style do a much smaller sash around the middle and often times I think the detail is lost, which is not the case with Tameless.  The banding along the bust-line and just under adds a sophisticated touch to this dress.  I love the cuff as well, as it matches the gold banding on the dress perfectly and is just another wonderful detail that is so often overlooked.  The final piece of this ensemble are the AMAZING sandals, also from Tameless!

They come in the standard sizes and are for Slink High feet, so make sure you already own them!  The sandals fit perfectly and absolutely finish this ensemble off perfectly!  I wanted to show the neckline, so tossed on an old hair from Lamb and my favorite accessory from Maxi Gossamer and I was ready to go looking for my Caesar.  I did not find him last night however, so if you find my Caesar, please send him my direction!

Have a wonderfully wicked day and remember to always stay true to your style and make today's fashions work for you!

Just Purr

Evening everyone!  I hope you all had a wonderfully wicked weekend and are getting ready for the upcoming week with enthusiasm!  After all, a life worth living is one lived well; so make sure you do it with style!  If you are a lover of animal print then you need to hurry on over to Vogue's New Year New Trends event and grab this fabulous outfit from DivahZ!


The "Purr" dress comes in system layers and every applier you could possibly ever want!  The daring v neck and sexy high slit make this outfit definitely purr worthy!  The dress is also very well textured and the belt adds a bit of flair.  Tameless has a new release this week, "Callie" and it is a perfect addition to this rather feisty ensemble!  I love the color combinations and the side swept ponytail mixed with the soft bangs and modified, modern bun makes this hair a must have for your closet.  Whether with an elegant gown or a sexy dress, this hair is perfect, so take a chance and head on over to Tameless and get your hands on some fantastic new designs!

Just Hit Pause

Happy Monday everyone and if you are like me, the last couple of months have been beyond hectic and the start of the year has been filled with trying to catch up.  I feel like I am flitting from one thing to the other and not quite ever getting the chance to breathe.  So today, I hit pause for a few and went and got lost at Done Wiv a Twist.  The wonderful group has redecorated the sim and the Asian garden theme was met with an audible sigh as I loaded, because I knew this was the perfect place to pause, and just reflect for a little bit.


But of course, couldn't wander out in just anything!  The Bohemian in me absolutely loves this new dress from Alaskametro<3!  The dress is available in several colors and is wonderfully detailed at the neckline with a hand drawn embellishment.  The dress moves well and I love the detailing on the sleeves with them being open along the arm.  From the top to the bottom it is a fantastic dress, so make sure to click the link below and head over to the MP store and get your hands on some amazing designs from Alaskametro<3!

Dress - Alaskametro<3 - Ingrid NEW!!!
Necklace - Glint - Silver Beads and Spirals @ Go99 til the 25th
Ring - Glint - Pink n White Diamond Platinum Wedding Set


Tameless has a whole bunch of new releases for the months of December and January but today I am featuring the "Aspen" design.  I love the dramatic feeling of this hair which can be either formal or casual depending on what the rest of your ensemble consists of at the time.  The hair moves well and doesn't cut into the body as much as some others when posing, walking, etc.  If you haven't had a chance to check out the new designs at Tameless hurry on over, you will not be disappointed!  Glint has all kinds of things going on around the grid, and I have fallen absolutely in love with the Silver Beads and Swirls collection currently available at the Go99 event, at a discounted price, so make sure to check it out, this deal won't last long!  And, I don't often get to show off the wonderful wedding designs from Glint, but today I bring you the Pink n White Diamond Platinum ring from the wedding collection.  The detailing is exquisite as with every piece of Glint jewelry so make sure and check it out, and if in need of a wedding set, contact Rainbow for your own personalized design today!

Heathenesque Flirtation

It is a perfect late Spring day in the mountains today, so I decided to feature an outfit I would wear any day up here in the wild blue yonder!


Heathenesque is a store some of you haven't heard about, but I guarantee you will enjoy your visit!  The flirty designs, complimentary pastel and natural palettes accented with black, and the exquisite details will draw you in; the gorgeous textures and versatile style will make you stay!  The Retrogasm collection from /heathenesque/ is currently available in the main store, if you missed it at the 100 Block Event!  The tops come in pastels and naturals, and solids and prints, all HUD driven, which expands their versatility.  I decided to pair the top with these adorable peddle pushers from Coquet.  I feature them in my "Gone Fishin" post, but due to the amazing fit, they have become an integral part of my daily wardrobe.  The pants were at the May round of FaMeshed, but they are sweeping up their sidewalks and closing their doors, you might catch them, but if not, keep an eye out in the store!  Same can be said for this amazing jewelry set from Zenith, so run to FaMeshed or check the store!  If you haven't noticed, I have an obsession with a select few hair designers, and that is because I am very picky about my hair textures.  Tameless, has become a quick favorite for several reasons, including the quality textures, excellent color choices, and the mixing of rigged and un-rigged hairs.  I love still having pieces of the hair move naturally, and thus, my collection continues to grow!  Go check them out, if you have somehow missed them!!!!


 Outfit - /heathenesque/ Retrograsm Top; Coquet Peddlers @ FaMeshed or check the store!; Zenith Earth Stone Butterfly Necklace and Ring @ FaMeshed May (if closed check the store); Gizza Multibangles Wood Hydrophyte; Pure Poison Mbao Bag @ Fashionart; Reign Groupie Wedges GROUP ONLY GIFT

A Vision of Light and Design


When wandering through Fashionart this dress literally made me stop in my tracks, do a double take and say, "I have NO reason to buy that dress, but it is AMAZING!"  The fit is perfect, the texture and color combination is simply stunning, and was a delight to wear!  A true piece of art to be worn.  Adding too much in the way of accessories would have overwhelmed it, so I kept it simple with a set of chunky bracelets from Pure Poison, along with their Mbao bag and dainty rings from Leonard.  The Alexandra heels have a wonderfully tall line to them, with the cuff that actually comes to the top of the ankle.  I think they match perfectly with this dress, as a simple stiletto would have taken away from the dramatic lines of the dress.  Now, this dress does not have an alpha that covers all of your pink bits (yay!) however, this means, there are no panties under the dress.  I added basic blank panties from Epic and voila, problem solved.  Enjoy the pictures and have a wonderfully wicked long weekend!
