Waving a Dandelion to help all the little seeds at their parachutes to start their journey.
blown away
The Albero Kawaii hunt started today. In this hunt you search for 16 tree stumps. At the startpoint you get a hud and with every tree you find you could see more of a picture. When having found all trees you could teleport to the participating stores and grab the hunt gifts. There are not only japanese stores on Albero. For example No Strings Attached has a shop there and also Duh! sells shoes at this place. The prices are pretty cute. The cuphat comes from Ingenue. The dress is the gift from mocha and the shoes are the gift from Duh. The pale skin comes in a version with and one without freckles.

Dressed for Holi

Mashooka is a store for awesome indian and western clothing. The quality of the items is stunning as the textures are always well made and mainly very colourful. This weekend Holi takes place in india. A spring festival for which colours are very important. Because of that at mashooka a dollarbie dress is sold today and tomorrow. It comes with a top, a skirt and a scarf. This scarf is called dupatta and essential for many womens outfits in south asia. It could be worn in many ways. In this outfit it is worn over a shoulder. All prim parts come with resizescripts and the dress should fit every avatar. Its a great dollarbie and mashooka is always worth a visit.

Look of the day



It's been a while since I posted my last look of the day, but then it's been a while since I have wandered around SL in an outfit that I wasn't about to blog. Laughs at the irony in that statement since I didn't intent to blog it and now I have! So as usual my outfit consists of some fantastic freebies, cheapies  and  non freebies. I want to get all gushy about my new boots for the simple fact that I think they are amazing and so integral to this look! I spent so long in Lassitude & ennui trying to decide if I would have the boots with heels or the flats , and then what colour! as there are so many options oooh dilemma! Anyway I'm thrilled with my choice & might have to go back for some more.

Fins and Scales

Some myths say that the merpeople are cold and wet and that the life they live in the deepths of the seas is boring and without beauty. Those myth are wrong. The culture of the merpeople is impressing. They grow special flowers in their garden and they know how to make wonderful dresses out of fish which is only raised for that. The merpeople keep most of those dresses for themself but some make it on the surface.
Ocean born
LeeZu takes part at Fashion for Life and they have wonderful dresses as donation item. The dress on the first picture reminds me on a betta with all the colourful fins. Although i m not sure if black betta exist as the scales of the dress are black. The shades of black and dark magenta fit well together. The idea to mix flowers, fins and scales is unique in my opinion and i have to admit that i love the dress and enjoy walking around in it. It is also a great item for roleplay as you always could say it has been made of giant fish you hunted or is something your family owns for centuries. I only had to adjust the top and the gloves a bit to make the dress fit my avatar. So maybe it takes about 15 minutes on a posestand to adjust the dress but its definitly worth to take the time for that.

This white black dress also has a very unique cut. Which is mainly created by the collar. The dress could be worn just as top or with one of the three included skirts. On the picture you could see the dress with the sculpted skirt, the other included skirts are a sculpted one with some flexi parts over it which look a bit like a lace and have the same pattern as the rest of the dress and a babydoll skirt. The sleeves are also sculpted. If your avatar is only 1,96m in high heels as mine you will need to resize the dress also. But it is easy with those skirts and the collar. It did not take much time. What i really love is how classic and modern this dress is at the same time. And i was really surprised when i recognized that this dress, although the skirt is longer than a miniskirt, goes pretty well with overknee boots. I really like this combination. Of course it also fits great to high heels.

This white dress also comes with three skirts. The top has a very open cut. I liked the skirt with the bows best as it is cute. The other two skirts are one with tealength and one which is short but without the bows. This dress reminds me very much on spring but it might also work well in summer as it is very open and its not very likely to sweat while wearing it.
white dress
This is the black version of the above dress. It has some white squares on the skirt which make it look more intresting. It also comes with three skirts. This one is the tealong one. This dress lets me think of an artist who might wear a sophisticated dress.

Bunny fears

A bunny looking afraid with big eyes knowing that the ferret could wake. But it is not clear if that will ever happen.
This lingerie von Outrage fits perfectly to the bunny year as it comes with bunny ears. The fishnets do not cover the feet that means prim feet won t be a problem with them. The top comes in two versions the peek - a - boo one does not cover everything so that the nipples are visible. The other one hides all bits. Beside the skirt is also a tail included. The set might also work as bikini as there are trousers without the garters are included. The outfit has the right textures to work well at a day at the beach.

I have the ferret sofa for a while and would have loved to blog it. But unfortunatly it isn t sold anymore. Which is a pity as it is a great being to spend times with friends on.

[bleeding ink]

You brought me to life
from sketch,
engraving me in copper and black -
your favourite rockstar bound to hang
above your bed.

But time passed by and your interests changed
your men were of flesh now and jealousy-strained
watching me with narrowed eyes as I stayed in my frame -
terrified.

But they never touched me and in the end it was you
disowning me with a shattering grip
of your birth-giving fingers' threw
leaving me lifeless and bleeding ink
and laughing at my very last
blink.
