Start Another Story

Well I have spent the last month thinking things over and have come to decide that this will be my last "blog post". I have been slowly fading already with my switch to working based on inspiration rather than pumping out posts with items I was handed, and I am coming to realize SL isn't the inspiration it once was. SL will still have a part of me and I will still be on once in awhile, but the draw of being on for endless hours is gone for me. I have made great friends over the years and had much fun, but now RL holds more appeal. When inspiration hits you will still be able to find pictures on my Flickr and I will probably still fully credit them there, minus the landmarks. But thank you for taking part of this journey with me over the past 5 or so years, no matter how brief or late your visit may be. So long and thanks for all the fish!

Shiny & New

Happy New Year everyone! So, this was supposed to be my last post of last year, but things go in the way so instead I will make it my first post of this year. I hope that it brings less unwelcome curve balls for you and yours and more home run hits than ever before! Yes, I'm really trying to make 2016 way better than the second half of my 2015... ANYWAYS have some shiny pretty things to ring in the new year!

Do What You Wanna Do

Guys! Guys! I can finally share why I was really slow to pick up blogging this month! The first week of December I was selected to take part in the December issue of ECLIPSE Magazine's Ways to Wear section. This round was special because it pits bloggers against certified models. So I was assigned three different items and had to come up with a look for each of them. Luckily for me that was the hard part, as the wonderfully talented Anderian Sugarplum was in charge of the photography for the magazine. So please go check out this issue and especially dive in to the section that starts on page 152 and vote for who you think wore it best! Here is a sneak peek at my looks, aka the 'crap I need to have a photo of these looks for inspection pose fast and get it done' pics.

But seriously please go check out the magazine, these pictures are nothing compared to what Anderian captured and put into the pages, plus I would really love your votes! You don't have to be a model to have rocking style that slays, you just have to have the heart and a killer smile.
