all is love.


So, yeah my modem COMPLETELY melted down and after a truly annoying back and forth with my provider, I am back up and running. With this post of awesome *grin*. Yes, I have caught the fever.. because I have been listening to Karen O and The Kids' "Where The Wild Things Are" soundtrack. Pretty close to nonstop.


First - I have on the awesome group gift hair from Tarnished - Wild One. There is another version in store for sale that I will blog as soon as I can snap it up. With it I have the "Just Hope" hoodie (sans hood >.<) and jeans outfit from Tyranny Designs (400L for the full outfit w/sceptre/300L for just the hoodie/sceptre). It is quite possible that these may be my favourite new jeans. I may wear them until their pixels rot off my bod.


My skin is from Rockberry - Sasha w/freckles (300L for 4 skins - w/ or w/out freckles and tintable lip skins for both). I looooove this skin, and I know a version was given out as a group gift aaaaages ago, but I missed that boat.


All poses come from (pda), and I took these snaps in a sim I just discovered (aptly enough) called Where The Wild Things Are. It is incredible, and a place I can't wait to explore more! Stomping around, growling ferociously and waving round my sceptre, of course.

This post is another fast one about two amazing finds I made today which are PERFECT for Halloween, or any day, should you be so inclined. One is due to Beanie's blog *hooks a thumb at my bloglist*; this gorgeous group gift from *Kiitos!. It's instore, along with the above pose. Intricate texturing and softness.. this will be a definite fave of mine for sure.


Next is this skin I found while exploring Silent Sparrow's sim. I found Achariya's storefront for Bitter Ink, and while peeking around inside, found a box with two Starlight skin mods Ach had created (0L). This one is the "plain" one. I LOVE the ghostly, sweet details, and the lips are gorgeously kissable. Yeah. I said it. What?


Also worn is Tiny Bird's Millionaire hair (prev 50L Frio offering), last years' Halloween gift socks from WWI, prev blogged piercings from ellabella (1L modded slightly) and edge grafica's engineer boots (1L). The two close up shots were taken @ Kunstkammer's Quick Rezz Skybox area, and the others were at Wretched Hollow. The pose below came from Somatica.

this is halloween.


Just a quickie to jump the gun on my 3rd fave holiday (eclipsed only by my birthday and St. Pat's). And also to squeal over {frick}'s new group gift - the maraud group gift skin and eyes in group only colours! These come in a pack with awesome Neko skins in two tones. I'm showing the peach tone here, along with the incredible Neko eyes. I love these!


The wicked piercings I have on are a just released dollarbie from ellabella, who makes some of the most gorgeous piercings I've seen. My hair is from Tiny Bird - KissyKissy (0L from the Poop Hunt). The horns and wings are from Uncle Wiggily, which, very sadly, no longer exists.


My outfit is pieces from Sn@ tch; the Libertine outfit (50L during a long ago Riot Vend session). Still available, and at a reasonable price (I want to say 250L but I'm not certain anymore). These were the first proper bloomers I saw in SL, and I loved them from the moment I saw them. My chest tattoo is the Midnight Mania gift offered by Tarnished, one of two boards @ the Cuppycakeums sim that are not nearly frequented enough!



The first two pics are taken @ Ellabella's homestore, and use poses from my LiNe AO, and the last two feature [LAP] poses, and were taken at the eerie Wretched Hollow.

Song For This Post - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zNgo07Cg7lI


So let me just start with saying that this is a song I have been chanting for the past week. Course, it is more effective to chant when you are stomping through giant piles of crunchy fall leaves, but that's coming. "It's all PART (crunch) of my (crunch, crunch) AUTUMN (crunch) AL (crunch) MA (crunch) NAC!!!! (crunch, crunch, crunch)" Bellowing is not optional.


So, no. There is no fall background to this one because I had to much fun snapping pictures of the dance I finally buckled down and bought after my year in sl (the 25th was my rezzday!! I had no clue til the 26th haha). It's the most awesomest dance, from Sine Wave, called the Jammy Dodger. There is another one that I want to link with it, but I'm not telling you, cos it'll be my signature dance move. *flashes the pearly whites*


Onto the pretty clothes! This may be a look you'll see me sporting more and more as I love it soo much. Both the jacket and the skirt are from oyakin. The skirt is part of the group gift (0L in notices still I THINK), and the jacket is something I plan to collect in every colour (90L). The skirt is my favourite in sl right now, and I am drooling over the bright blue! Ah well, next pay period. I spent a lot, selectively, during my shopping excursions this past little bit.


With it, I am wearing the Millionaire hair from Tiny Bird (complete with tiara) that was Autmn's most recent 50L Friday offering. I LOVE the soft fluffiness of the hair, and the tiara is texture-scripted to match any outfit you can come up with. I also have on Tarnished's BonBon socks (75L/fatpack incredible steal!). The gorgeous skin is lessthanthree's phoebe 02, one of the incredible skins she will be releasing for the upcoming skin fair, and the necklace is from Boing Fromage (prev blogged).


These snaps were taken during my friend Naga's set @ Lucidity, floating high above Wretched Hollow, home to Wretched Dollies. I'll show you more of the sim in a few posts, as it is perfect for haunting fall shots.

my cosmic autumn rebellion.


For my next autumn look, I am showcasing lessthanthree's phoebe group gift in the summer makeup. I so love the light dusting of freckles and gently pink tinge - like the last fading of a summer sunburn. Lovely.


The gorgeous tunic and skirt I am wearing is from Oyakin - a store I am excited to see has rebuilt and even creating such new gorgeous flowy garments that I have not seen on the grid,
ethereal floating layers, including some with soft glow. You can buy them separately for 100L or so each, or together in this sweet outfit for 150L.


My accessories for this outfit are very simple, and things, for the most part, that I have had for a long time. My hair and necklace are both 50L Friday items I've previously blogged. The armwarmers are from a store called shu*shu which I am afraid seems to have disappeared. My boots are from J's (0L prev group gift), and the socks are from magi take (20L fat pack).

All poses are from MNK's Switch opening gift, and were taken at the Tempura sim. Here's 2 pics just because I think they are loverly.
