ROSY

Rosy Medium

Just another week left to visit this installment of Collabor88, where did the time go? This collection of vintage-retro inspired goodies is perfectly delicious, if you haven't visited yet. One of my faves is this cinch-waisted party dress. I think these new shoes from Junbug complement the white shirt collar and belt. (Yes, I finally gave in and bought the SLink High Feet; honestly because I keep seeing such gorgeous shoes to wear on them.)

ADRIA

Adria Full

If you are as in love with outdoor living as I am in warmer weather, you may fall in love with this sweet little gazebo. I used to have a beautiful one that weighed in at fifty-eight prims, but this new one by Atelier Visconti comes in at a slim 16 prims instead, not including the furnishings of course. I love mesh!

Adria Medium

The gazebo is over in the Garden section of the Liaison Collaborative with some matching furnishings and accessories, but I also wanted to set out a few of my favorite things. I do like the comfy sofas and the table though. One of my favorite things about Atelier Visconti sofas is that they almost always come with a HUD to let you change up the appearance of the upholstery. Hmm? ... let's see that.

FIERCE



I could use some more Fierce attitude right now. I'm doing my best, but my day-to-day challenges are kicking my butt lately. Maybe I'm expecting too much? For me the hardest thing about waiting for physical healing is that I only have a little energy, and my basic obligations take almost all of it, leaving little for simple fun. It annoys me how much I simply sleep and rest lately because I want to do more ...

THE I-SCREAM QUEEN



I love a minty cool outfit as the warmer weather kicks in! I'm layering this maxi dress over a hybrid shirt that I really loved finding over at Violent Seduction. I wish more people made things like this. It is a system-layer shirt with rigged and unrigged collar and bow, and rigged sleeves both long and short. If I wanted to layer the shirt under a jacket I could leave off the sleeves. Get the idea? Pretty please designers make more flexible pieces like this!



I don't usually show hands close-up but I wanted you to see this cute cupcake ring (a group gift over at the Chapter Four birthday party) and these cute fingernails. The details show a little better on the nail HUD courtesy of the Sugar Garden.



Dress: Vincue "Maxxi+Dress"
Shirt: Violent Seduction "Lolita Blouse" (system shirt with mesh attachments YAY!!)
Nail Polish: The Sugar Garden "SLink Fingernails - Floral Bows" (three variations on a HUD)
Ring: Atomic "Celebrate! Cupcake Ring (group gift at the Chapter Four)
Ice Cream: ur.favorite.one "i scream, you scream"
Crown and Scepter: Enfant Terrible "Crown Mint" and "Staff Mint" (gacha)
Shoes: The Secret Store "Oxford Heels"
Hair: Lamb "Darling"
Skin: Essences "Siggy TDRF02" (at the Dressing Room)

IT AIN'T EASY BEING GREEN



Not only isn't it easy being green, it isn't easy being Fae, Unseelie, Horned, or anything else on the outer fringes of the Bell Curve. So should I hide behind a more conventional mask? I can blend better if you would like me to.



I wanted to wear Sugar Garden's skin set just a little longer!! ... With some recent lovelies from Lassitude and Ennui. The beautiful period frock is at Fantasy Faire, but I imagine it will relocate to Ms. Ennui's shop after these events finish.

IT'S GOOD TO BE THE QUEEN



Time flies and if you want to visit the Fantasy Faire you only have this weekend! The offerings are choice and the fantasy builds imaginative so don't miss your chance! One of my purchases was this gown from the White Armory but I love it with this themed hair and skin from the Enchanted Event. I purchased the Violent Seduction hair which came with a stamp card that I traded in for this skin set from the Sugar Garden. The skin set includes all kinds of appliers. (Wow, there are getting to be LOTS of appliers!)
