Faded Sky

I hate hot weather so basically as soon as it gets over 80 I feel like I’m going to spontaneously combust.  Thus I’ve unofficially deemed it summer in my part of the world. Which means it’s only going to get hotter from here on out which makes Fricka a sad horned demon thing.

With my lamentations about weather aside I’ll get on with the blog. Ruina Kessel of the newly rebranded Devae. has released some awesome mesh camis that would be perfectly at home in my present climate. I wish I had one irl right now. The cami comes in about a billion delicious color combos and I was colorstruck trying to pick a favorite but a quick trip to the Arcade landed me this pretty teal hair from Exile and it matched great with the Faded Sky color combo and boom, a look was born. I also modded up a pair of Khor feets from [europa] to match. I’ve mentioned it before but I absolutely adore that [europa] includes a blank texture to make for easy modding.

Now I’m going to go crank the A/C and sip a cool beverage.

Flirting with Danger

I finally got a new video card that is fully capable of using shadows without crashing every 2 seconds so I had to bust some out to show off this smexy new outfit from Lolapop!

Little Yellow Riding Hood

If you’ve managed to keep up with my sporadic postings over time, you know I’m a huge fan of Ruina Kessel.  I love her creations to pieces!  Ruina recently released a set of boots that are awesome!  She has several color sets available from basic to wild.  The boots use a HUD to allow you change the colors of the main boot and heel/sole/toe separately to create tons of different color combos!  I went with a summery combo of sun/grapefruit to match the cute yellow hooded cape from :) BCC’s gacha at The Arcade.

Urban Drow

RL or SL, I’m a sucker for a sale so I took full advantage of the winter sale at Sn@tch this weekend.  Sn@tch is a steal on a normal day with crazy low prices for fat packs of everything but throw in a sale and you can’t beat the bargains to be had.  If you hurry, you might still be able to catch it before it’s over tonight 2/4.

I felt like this punkish look was just begging to be worn by a Drow, so there you have it.

Silver Quick

I’m super sorry I didn’t manage to get to get this post done up when these glorious boots from Schadenfreude were still out for Collabor88.  They were from December’s cycle so don’t appear to be available right now but maybe they’ll pop up in Allegory’s shop eventually… I hope so, these boots are just made of lust.

So I’ve been listening to an unseemly amount of Moonface lately and well, Spencer Krug’s voice just does it for me… he could sing the phone book and I would melt, I just, that voice… unf.  Yeah, that little random morsel of information had very little to do with this particular look but I happened to be listening to Heartbreaking Bravery while I was piddling about in SL and yeah, there you have it.

I’m swimming in cold meds at the moment.  Not gonna lie, the fuzzy headed-ness is kinda nice and adds this interesting dimension to just sitting and listening to music.  That visceral reaction to music I’ve always had is so seriously amped up right now and wow.  Just wow.

There, I’m done sharing.  I really should have put that on a personal blog.
/hits publish anyways

52 Weeks of Color – Week 18-19

Week 18 & 19 of Luna Jubilee’s 52 Weeks of Color Blogger Challenge are Ecru and Umber.

Dragon Age 2 is out and that means I’m once again afflicted with fangirl obsession syndrome which means each and every free second I have I’ve spent playing, modding and gabbing about it. It is such a good game I can’t even begin to start to tell you how amazing it is. It’s my excuse for smooshing two colors into one week again. I’m not a huge earth tones person so these two colors were really difficult for me. But, this dress from Silent Sparrow has them both so yay!

Ritual

I spent most of the long weekend playing WoW.  I’ve been grinding away for a while trying to get The Loremaster achievement and after some massive questing, it’s mine!  Thanks to awesome guildies who came through in a pinch to help me finish out some group quests I just couldn’t solo.  Yay for friends!  But all the questing has taken it’s toll, I’m seriously WoWed out.  So I took a break last night and did a little shopping and picked up this stunning new ensemble from Silent Sparrow.  I agonized over the color choice.. but in the end, purple won out!  One of the things that really stood out for me is the slightly worn and dusty edges to the skirt, such a neat little detail.  Yeah, my picture is kinda dorky, blame it on my being up all night and not exactly super lucid.

Unseelie/Seelie

Better late than never… I remember hearing about the Calico Creations/~silentsparrow~ Flickr contest a while back but then totally forgot about it until today… so I scurried to put together my outfit! Of course, I ended up with 4 pictures and decided to reject the last pic. Let me take a minute to lavish praise upon ~silentsparrow~ and Calico Creations for their lovely things. I absolutely adore this dress, it’s the perfect shade of turquoise perfection and the texturing is just unbelievably fantastic. And of course, pair it up with the really fun and beautiful Calico Creation’s hair and you can tell they were just made for each other. ^^ And of course, I had to go to Lash’s La Reve to take pics. I just can’t help but go back there whenever I need an ethereal, gorgeous locale in which to set my pictures against. If you haven’t been to La Reve, omg, what are you waiting for? Go now. Seriously, go now.
