Mmm Bellbottoms

In the mid seventies before she gave birth to yours truly.. my mom was a hippie. She had this saying that said “Bell Bottom Trousers with buttons made of brass.. loose around the ankles but tight around the ass” Tyr of Aura/Auxiliary a sponsor of/and Vintage Fair creator put this outfit out last night and I fell in love. The belted top is so so so adorable too.

This hair form Wasabi Pills also at the Vintage Fair which opens today at 4SLT is gorgeous. I keep on changing my hair color like crazy but Wasabi Pills makes beautiful reds. The poses in this post are also an offering from the Vintage Fair by Wet Cat, and this house is at the vintage fair too from Vespertine.

One more close up of the earrings from Kunglers, the pictures don’t do them justice.. go see them in world.

Fairy Tales 2012

“In this life you have to be your own hero.

By that I mean you have to win whatever it is that matters to you by your own strength and in your own way.

Like it or not, you are alone in a forest, just like all those fairy tales that begin with a hero who’s usually stupid but somehow brave, or who might be clever, but weak as a straw, and away he goes (don’t worry about the gender), cheered on by nobody, via the castles and the bears, and the old witch and the enchanted stream, and by and by (we hope) he’ll find the treasure.”
― Jeanette Winterson, The PowerBook

“The stories we sit up late to hear are love stories. It seems that we cannot know enough about this riddle of our lives. We go back and back to the same scenes, the same words, trying to scrape out the meaning. Nothing could be more familiar than love. Nothing else eludes us so completely.”
― Jeanette Winterson, The PowerBook

Stumble for your bum on over..

I am a few days late but I wanted to mention this set from Cheeky Pea that is newly released for this round of Stumblebum that started on my May First. I love this, the Coppola set is color change and has multiple poses and comes with a table with some nice accessories.

The top that I am wearing, I totally love. It is new for Stumblebum as well from Aura. This cute little summer top is the perfect compliment to any casual summer/warm spring day outfit. I am also wearing Capri’s from Apple May Designs. New hair from Wasabi Pills from Culture Shock 2012 opening on May 4th and sandals from Maitreya. My skin is from Glam Affair in Leah.

Collabor88 never ceases to amaze!

Collabor88 for March is newly opened and as always the designs never cease to amaze me. I was super pleased walking around Collabor88 this morning to see all the new and wonderful things.

I’m wearing Aura’s Briar skin in Azure with one of the pretty lipsticks that come with it and for the quality of this skin the price is set at an absolute steal. I’m wearing the Milk Tone which I love. I am also wearing the Organic Silk Dress from League in black and jewelry from Yummy which is this lovely crystal ring and necklace set and the rings come in other colors and I love how realistic the crystals look.. and you must be on a mesh viewer to see them but it’s totally worth it for the quality.

I also picked up these cute boots that are new from N-core. New hair from Fab-U-Lous and I love the color and these poses are from Adorkable. My tights are from the wonderful pack of tights from Izzie’s. They are simply adorable.

Happy Thursday!

The Festival of Sin is coming to town…

I am a very lucky blogger indeed. I managed to sneak in to preview the Festival of Sin which is starting on February 18th and going on until March 3rd. I can’t begin to tell you all of the exciting things I saw but wanted to instead to do a post to feature some of the AMAZING ITEMS!

Marleen Vaughan of Vaughans House of Curiosities made this Sloth room complete with air fresheners for the ceiling for those not so fresh day’s when you have dead bodies just laying around or you don’t feel like bathing. She also has this box thing here with a bucket of Vomit or Feces – I’m not sure so you don’t have to get up and leave your room. It has two poses and the Sloth room is amazingly put together and is one of my favorite items so far.

I am wearing panties that come from Cynful (Lust). Heels that are from Ingenue (Wrath), the necklace is from Carolines (Sloth), The hair is from Amacci. The beautiful skin is from Aura.. I love the slutty lipstick smudged mouth.. and the chains that come with the pose are from Captive Poses. Everything in the photos is a bit of the Festival except for the Hospital set from Fashionably Dead at this months Collabor88.

The Festival of Sin looks to be kick ass and I will have a bunch more posts about the event. I am super excited to get my sin on.

Love affair with Aura’s Helena..

Tyr released a new group gift for her store Aura.. it’s called love notes, it’s a preview of an upcoming line and this tone which I love is called Paper. There are two group gifts – one in a lighter tone as shown and a darker town as well with an extra VIP lipstick. The group gifts for Aura are generous and yes there is a join fee but it’s well worth it.

I am also wearing a dress that I kinda wore as a sweater from Zenith. NEW Mesh hair from Wasabi Pills, boots from Mons and tights from Riddle that is at the Crush on you event. Oh, also see that ring? I’m getting hitched in SL to Spence yet again.. wish us luck lol!

Aura’s Briar Skin

I’ve been working on this skin post all morning. It’s been a welcome distraction because my heart is a mess right now. This skin made me smile though, funny enough. It is a brand new skin line from Tyr Rozenblum of Aura.

To me this is the best of her best skins so far. I love the makeups and tones and photographed some of my favorites for this post. There are a literally a ton of make up options.. something like 16 eye options and 6 lips options and in five tones.. the possibilities for combinations are seemingly endless. This skin is seriously gorgeous and I think you should go check it out now!

I am also wearing brand new gloves from Sienia Trevellion of Lark! You can go pick up some for Super Bargain Saturday for cheap and I matched them up with some socks from her Gacha at the Seasons Gatcha. My lingerie for this post is from D. Select and my poses are varied. I was a picture taking fool this morning so I’m sorry about that.

Have a happy weekend.
