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.

Think Geek

So when I heard about the Geeks'n'Nerds Event this geeky girl had to go check it out and I found a ton of awesome things that grabbed my attention so here is a post to show off a fraction of my goodies!

I instantly fell in love with this chair from tea.s, and the mugs from Atooly made me giggle. Olive brought out my inner fan girl with all of the Sailor Moon inspired jewelry and the book earrings just magnify one of the meany reasons why (My LOVE of reading) I consider myself a geek. These aren't the only epic things I found though while shopping. Beach street not only had this epic wall art but a gatcha full of geeky pillows that I took many stabs at and collected a few of my favorites. C(Two Cats) also put out an epic cute handheld gaming device that made me squee that I collected! There are tons more but I'm too lazy to type the rest up while I should be off the computer enjoying my turkey day so go wander the event and find all of the epic nerdy things that make you squee!

More Than Meets The Eye

I will have to keep this post short and sweet because honestly the more I look at the pictures the more I analyze them and that just makes my brain scream more with everything that just went on in my RL and all the emotions flowing through me. You never quite realize everything that you subconsciously do until you sit there and look back after the fact. But anyway on to the pretty look!

The bright splash of rainbow is what got my attention with this top and I absolutely had to have it when I saw it. And then cStar came out with rainbow eyes! Sadly I've only managed to wresle 2 of the 3 rainbow versions out of the gatcha so if anyone happens to have the rare one lying in their inventory and doesn't want/need it I have stuff to trade for it. Up to and possibly including my soul... But we have to get Kaylith's approval to go that route! Also comfy bears to lay on! The poses they have in them are awesome I just had an idea in mind and had to find a different pose to bring the idea to life. Also I have to convince Lokii to but out this rainbow version of the necklace she made for the Shoetopia Gatcha. I needed to find a necklace and she was all "I have an idea" and she made the pretty, now she just needs to get it out where more than just me can abuse it! Also a closeup because A) Yay pretty eyes that you need to take a closer look at! B) New profile picture because different angle and win and I want to show it off!

Falling Into Fall

I was one of a handful of selected bloggers to be an official blogger for the Falling into the Season Hunt hosted by Atooly Hunts. *the part where I do a dance in my chair* This is a really awesome and relatively short Fall themed hunt with only 25 stops but all of the prizes are totally worth the little bit of hunting you have to do for the prizes! Prize Previews! List of stores and their hints! See I am even making the hunt easier on you by showing you all the awesome stuff that Atooly posted on the web to help out the hunters! So there was a catch to the fall themed prizes though, there was a color swatch given to all of the designers that they had to base their prizes around, and the swatch happens to be the background of the hunt sign.

As the pretty hunt sign states, the Hunt stated yesterday and runs through the 23rd, so you have some time but don't procrastinate too long or the leaves you are hunting for might blow away!

But we all know me I can't just ramble about the hunt I have to take pretty pictures and show you some of the awesomeness myself so here it is!

I saw this pose prop and knew on sight in the previews that it would be my poses I totally had to have it cause pumpkins, and leaves, and whimsy pose, Oh My! I also love the shirt that Atooly came out with for the hunt, though my only complaint is she only made 2 colors and that is just the rainbow whore in me screaming for sticking to a color theme. I also loved the PJs that ZINAS came out with and totally loved the stole my boyfriend's shirt and put it on with my PJs feel that I got when I mixed it with the top form Atooly. Now for a closer look at the awesome details!

There are also these awesome prim nails from Laville, its hard to tell but this color has cute little leaves on one of the nails! You will almost never see me wear earrings in SL because most of my hairs will cover them up but between the adorable hair that Alice Project put out with the special Autumn color pack and the beautiful earrings that Ci Co put out I knew that they were a match for this look. And we can't forget this beautifully done skin, I am getting really picky about my skins lately, because cStar has me totally spoiled, but the new designer behind Sui Generis is totally off to a great start with this skin.

Enough of my ranting and raving head to the starting point and get in the hunt group (Copy this to local chat in world and click the link: secondlife:///app/group/372cb0cd-bbc1-df23-ea2f-9df73a6ca0bf/about) and get yourself these pretties!

Innocent Juliet

I happened to get a notecard telling me about an awesome little sale at the new satellite location for The Sea Hole on Tableau. Well to celebrate she marked down her Laceback Tank tops to only 20L$ for each of the beautiful 6 colors but only at the new location at Tableau so here is the landmark. Hurry over to get them before she puts them back to full price! But of course I'm sure you want to see what I did when I snagged some of these beauties. I played innocent of course.

This tank made me feel girly and flirty and I was told that it needed pearls, and then I was gifted these beautiful pearls by my friend Kaylith. I have to say she gets me addicted to nearly everything. First cStar for my skins, now Maxi Gossamer for my jewelry, at least I paid her back with an addiction to the beautiful outfits at Vengeful Threads. But I think I managed to play off sweet and innocent, don't you?
