THE GARDENER

I love gardening in Second Life. No weeds, I never destroy my fingernails ...



And no mud on my shirt and shoes. In my real garden the crocuses are gone and the Hyacinths are popping. I need to get out there soon and clear away some dead debris from winter.

GAIA

Forgive me if these lovelies aren't the newest releases, but they are still very recent. The Gaia Necklace by Aisling is really stunning though I am hiding some of it under the cowl. There are beautiful golden leaves rising in the back, and several sections of the beads and jewels are texture change so you can make them go with different outfits. Wow. I'm also really loving the sheer over-sleeves on this dress from the Muses!!

DON'T WORRY BE HAPPY

Just at the moment it's quiet in the middle of the night and I am enjoying a serene moment.  Or is it the Oxycodone? I'm not sure but whatever it is, I'll take it.

GOODNIGHT

I love purple. This muted tone just makes me happy. Outside, I have a garden of purple flowers beginning to come back to life. The crocuses are out! And the Hyacinths, Lavender and Russian Sage are starting to grow.



Junbug's delicious gown and these jewels by Mandala are a more sophisticated rendering of spring. Perfect!

WEASELY

It is a well known fact that cute fuzzy avatars are fifty percent cuter with the right accessories. Such as these adorable katatOnik hats from the Arcade. ... What I don't understand is, why isn't there a Ginger Weasel? Cause he would be a Keeper!! *nudge nudge wink wink*

Critters: Alchemy "Incredible Mr. Weasely" (gacha)
Hats: KatatOnik "Cameo Hats" (at the Arcade Gacha)

LA DAME DE COEUR

A few weeks ago at the Fantasy Gacha festival I may have been spotted dancing when I pulled this superb bit of headwear out of the Gacha vendor on the first try. I literally had to go find the right gown to wear with it, and life got complicated last month, but I finally spotted this beautiful frock over at Apsara. Although the high waistline isn't technically the correct period, I love the look so I don't care. *sticks out tongue*



And this hat. So fabulous that it deserves applause, and also its own butler. There isn't one camera angle that shows all of its fabulousness adequately, so I got a little frustrated whilst taking these photos. Lovely. My hat collection is now officially getting out of hand. Maybe I should have a Hat Week.



Hat: Remarkable Oblivion "Dame De Coeur RARE" (gacha) ... should be back at the Mainstore
Gown: Apsara "Sultana (Burnt Bridal)"
Necklace: Alchemy Immortalis "Aix La Chapelle Talisman" (vintage)
Skin: Essences "Paris" (at the Dressing Room)
Eyes: Ikon "Ardent"
Lashes: LeLutka "Photoshoot II"
