*Shrug*


Snapshot_002

Ohhh! I have some yummy stuff and I especially adore these boots from Baby monkey which come with a colour change hud and sock option so I can wear them with every outfit!
The hair is a new release at Love, I adore the curved slightly asymmetric fringe, the hair comes in 2 styles with or without hair tucked behind the ear - I rather like the tucked behind look it's a cute idea.
I am thrilled by the skirt too which looked mesh but isn't hurrah! and is a zombie popcorn hunt item at c'est la vie (look for a candy striped popcorn box)
More from the latest round at XYROOM, yummy smoky eyed skin by style by Kira which is available in dark & light skin colour (I'm wearing the light) and I'm not usually one for much jewelry but you can't help but love the peacock necklace by 1<3 fashion.

Earth Rise

The smell of the smoke floated through the air as everyday and earthrise. Kathrin was alone on the plattform as normaly at this time. And she smoked. Sometimes people were annoyed by her behaviour. The atmosphere on the moon had only reached a state which allowed humans to walk around without using a respirator.

But she had been born on the moon as first. It hadn't been planed of course. Not by the governments at least. Her parents had been among the astronauts who were choosen to start setting up everything on the moon to allow settlers to move there when the atmosphere would be thick enough for humans. Their colleagues never understood how Kathrin's parents had managed to go through the psychological tests. Of course the mooncolony was a try to gain peace between the two big state unions. Kathrine's father belonged to the European-American Confederation while her mother was an astronaut of the Sima Yan. The Sima Yan was the union of the african states and China. After the People's Republic of China had increased their influence on the african continent the states there started to orientate themself at chinese culture and finally they formed an union with China which was called after the famous Emperor of Wu. The conflicts between both alliances were massive. Luckily the elites of the European-American Confederation as well as the leaders of the Sima Yan sent their children to the same schools in switzerland, the only neutral country. So Kathrine's parents met first in a boarding school in the alps.
Earthrise
The parents of Katherine's father both worked in most secret scientific research projects. So Katherine's father knew while he was still in school that there would be a project to turn the moon into an area where people would be able to live. From his parents he knew as well that the project would be too expensive so that the alliances would work together. The leaders of both were afraid of riots which would most likely arrise because of the depleted soils. Hunger always seemed to lead to riots. So they hoped that they would manage to gain minerals from the moon to feed the billions of hungry humans. Knowing for years about the upcomming mission Katherine's parents managed to be prepared perfectly. Of course their families were surprised that they wanted to work with their hands instead of becomming diplomats, which would have been the normal career for them. But on the other hand they would be useful for their families to gain more influence. At least their families thought so. Katherine's parents had other plans - they wanted to see each other again. And they wanted to find a way to avoid being seperated again as it happened to them after they finished school. Katherine was their solution. Because of her they were not able to return to earth. Being born on the moon her bones were to weak to deal with the higher gravitation of the motherplanet of her parents. She was the first born moonie but at the same time the only prisoner in a giant cell. Nobody really knew what to do with her. Her parents only needed each other. Of course they loved her but their love for each other was so big that there was not really enough space for a child inbetween. So Katharina spend her time with watching films or wandering around. She had supposed that her parents would leave the moon when she would be older but not wanting to meet their families again - which were absolutly not happy about Katharina's existence - they stayed. One of the scientists who worked on the moon was sorry for the bored and lonely girl. So he started to teach her how to cultivate plants. It turned out that she was really talented. She managed to find good spots for plants and she was brilliant in mixing the gens of plants in a way which allowed them to grow in the sandy soil of the moon. It only made her a bit arrogant. So if somebody asked her why she was smoking she always told the people that she was only burning oxygen which wouldn't exist without her.
Black uniform I
I always adored the engineer boots from Coco on men. When going to have a look at their sale, which is currently going on, I recognized that they were also available for women. Of course I needed to have them. They are great. The bootleg is wide so that the shoe might make cool sounds while walking - which are not inbuild as far as I saw which is awesome - and is pretty comfy. The leathertextures are stunning. The boots come with a resize hud so that both have always the same size when resizing them while wearing both boots. If your avatar has two feet with different sizes you have to take off one boot while resizing the other. There are many great items available at Coco so its worth to visit that sale for more than boots. The uniform comes from C'est la vie. It is made to fit women as well as slender men. I guess the ones who wear that uniform should look a bit androgyn. But I might be wrong about that. All I can say about it is I love the design and it was easy to make it fit. Even the hat is mod and it is possible to make it smaller. The set comes with two kinds of pants one for guys and one for girls and I love the pointy shoulders. The black nails come of course from Virtual/Insanity. They have the possibility to show swearwords on top of them. When visiting the grandparents its possible to turn the texture into plainblack instead of having things like "fuck" written on top of them. The nails come in three different sizes. The hair on the upper pictures is new and from Wasabi Pills. It has a short cut at the front while the long hair of the rest is wrapped together. It could be worn either with or without pearls. When worn with pearls the hair includes a lot of tinting possiblities for those. The cigarette holder comes from nikotin. It includes a hud which allows to smoke on many ways. The cigarettes, cigars and pipes from that store are all very well made. And allow to blow smoke even out of the ears.
