Dark Alleys and Darker Hearts

Getting outside of the same old box is good for you sometimes. I managed to make it to Hair Fair before it ended and picked up a hair very different from my normal style. Made me feel rather Punk, so that is what I went with. Match it with a leather dress from *FASHIONNATIC* and some boots from _CandyDoll_ and I felt confident that I would blend in a dark, graffiti alley. But I took a bodyguard with me in case.

In Sunshine or In Shadow

I have been enjoying some pixel Beach time (thanks to many of items available at the upcoming Save the Date event). I managed to shove all of my beach bound gear into the funky messenger bag from Yasum and started out for some beach fun. After giving my new pet whale (part of the Sunshine set from [Fetch] ) a pat on the head.

After soaking up plenty of Pixel Sunshine, it seemed only fitting to relax indoors and eat some ice cream. Which I shared with my pet whale, I can not decide on a name for him though. I am thinking Fred, but then again, maybe the whale is a girl?

Down We Go

Down We Go, to another land, hopefully with cookies and gummibears.

The new pose from [Atooly] made me giggle the first time I played with the poses, whimsical and fun is how I would describe it. It makes me think of Alice in Wonderland (which I am sure is the point) and so I wanted to do a picture somewhat like Alice in Wonderland, but not entirely. I love the clothing from that period but I am nothing if not different, so although I wanted Victorian style clothing I did not want it to be to similar to the original Alice. Thankfully the answer came in the form of the Marquise boots from lassitude & ennui, which are available at the We ❤ RP event. I can not get enough of their adorable uniqueness. (Yes I am still wearing them, no I am not promising to take them off anytime soon)

Of course everyone needs to see a closer version of the boots.

Boring How People Talk

What is summer without a trip to the beach? I talked a friend into hitting the beach at the Black Basalt Beach sim and trying the “Beach Time” pose from Atooly. Unfortunately he decided a game of keep away was in order, just because I am shorter than he is. I love seeing what environment settings various sims use and how they add to their set up. Even more than windlights, I adore pretty places that allow me to rezz poses (even  if I have to pay for the group). Black Basalt Beach has a not small joining fee, but after multiple beach sims that did not allow rezz rights, I was very willing.

What fun things are you planning this summer?

How to Keep a Mermaid in Your Bathroom

The Arcade is most likely both my favorite event, and my banks least favorite event. I think I did ok limiting myself until I decided to try to complete the aquarium from [Con.]. In all I was lucky to get what I wanted most and a few things for friends. How was your luck this time around?

In other news, there is a mermaid in my bathroom. We found her while using the submarine from tarte., brought her home and let her use the bathtub. We also moved the Aquarium in by her so she would feel more at home with her fish friends. (Yeah I am weird its ok.) I think she likes the bathroom…or maybe its all the cookies I keep feeding her.

Color Me

 

It took a few days but I managed to make it into Collabor88 and am so excited to gush about my finds. A few things I am still undecided on, such as the “”D!va”” Hair “Yuko”. Although I love the wisps of free-spirited hair and the style is adorable and exactly what I look for, I am OCD about how the hair-line looks…and I struggled…Alot. What I am totally sold on are these shoes from Hucci, unique color options plus lets me show off my slink Nails and feet, the Bow is just icing on the cake. Below I added a photo of the hair more from the front, to show you the full style. Is there any characteristic of a hair (or any piece of clothing or accessory) that makes the difference between “the one you never wear” or “the one you never take off”?

I also browsed the Family Flea Market with a friend and found some MORE cute stuff. [Atooly]  currently has these Summer Flower Earrings available at the Family Flea Market, I do not think these pictures do them justice though so I will have to wear them again with hair that shows them off.

All in all I feel pretty accomplished…for a saturday.

Rain, Rain Go Away

Spring is one of my favorite seasons, mostly because I prefer mild temperatures to extreme hot or cold. But I also enjoy the flowers and sunshine and yes, even the rain. What better way to celebrate Spring then a walk in the rain, unfortunately my umbrella wanted to fly away.

The Umbrella and pose to use with it are currently available at the Pose Fair (which is FULL of awesome stuff). I apparently have a pose addiction now as well as my hair and shoe addiction, I would get help but it is just too much fun.

Princess In Training

There is nothing like an unique item to get you all excited about an idea. Alouette’s “The Princess’s Tower” made me extremely excited to take a princess picture. The outside view of the caslte is contained in the “painting” on the large easel. To help out with ideas for a princess photo I hit the Fit for a Princess event, which has even more cool stuff. I was to excited about the tower to pick up to much, but i did manage to grab a few items before I had to rush home to test out my new tower.

It’s Magic

I just want to sing “Oh, ho, ho It’s magic, you know” every time I look at the sparkly fairy princess wand in this picture. I entered a photo contest a few weeks back and fell in love with the sim, it just has so many cute places to explore. Check it out at “It all starts with a smile”. So when I started creating a picture around the fairy princess wand, the first place I thought of was this sim. I feel like it makes pictures more fun to have awesome backgrounds rather than just plain walls…although plain walls are easier to control. I was going for Fairy in this picture but have been informed I look more like Princess Ariel…I will take either as a compliment.

Do you have a favorite sim to go photo shooting at?

The Power of Titles

 

I find it amazing the difference a few words and some black and white filtering can do. When I started taking the pictures in today’s post I started with an idea that was a bit sad, but then it was so bright and cheerful at the sim I could not help but feel happy and cheerful. So I did two versions, yes this is the same indecision that results in my excessive inventory. The above photo is entitled “Let me be your Anchor” while the lower is “Who am I to hold you Down”. I love how pictures can tell stories and I really love how the story can change with just a few simple words.

 

Beyond all my rambling, there is a photo contest currently involving the sim “It all starts with a smile”, check out this blog post for details.
