Dancing In Heels.

I hope everyone had a good day and that you've got some Lindens ready to spend at the Designer Showcase which features some great designers.  You won't need too many of them darlings because nothing is over L$99 and some great group gifts to boot.

This dress, called K Collection Aisha, is one of the dresses put out by Liv Glam.  Damn near blinded me with all that silver bling.

It reminds me of the lights you see when flying into a big city at night.  Uber gorgeous don't you think?

I have to give an honorable mention to these amazing heels called 'Love Poison Nr.7' from Zero Cool Designz.  I commented in Flickr that the stiletto's could be used as deadly weapons (thinking Single White Female) and the lovely designer, Ms Alyssalillian McMinnar, contacted me in-world and kindly sent me a pair.  Alyssalillian is also the mastermind behind Gacha and in particular, the Gacha Addiction events featuring different themes each month.  Visit HERE for more factual information but knowing how many people seem to love the Gacha concept, you should be very excited indeed for the next one.

These shoes remind me of a really funny story that I want to share with you.  I have an Irish friend who used to study Irish dancing when she was younger living in the Emerald Isle. Having moved to Australia, she loved the lifestyle and didn't mind our cold beer either.  Diving into the BBQ and beer culture, she decided to give us all a demo of her Irish dancing skills at one of my parties but didn't factor in her high heels and beer consumption.  She started well but not long into it she keeled over and we all ran to her aid.  She bloody well did a jump but when she brought one foot over the other, stabbed herself in the foot with her heel.  I mean right through the foot.  We were all so drunk we couldn't stifle our laughter but did manage to get help for her.  Talk about River Dance...more like River of Beer Dance. 

Oh and this fabulous glittery bag with silver metal handles is from Miel and is color change.  Its so authentic looking as it kind of droops in the middle like bags do when handles make bags sit up at the sides (you know what I mean).

Now I've had the hiccups on and off for two days.  Does anyone else get them and they keep coming back?  Damn annoying and my chest hurts.

Thank You For The Music

Hello darlings.  I hope your day is going well and since you asked, mine has turned to s%$t.  Woke up this morning and went to the mail box.  What greeted me?  A whopping AUS$7,600 account from my solicitor for services rendered thus far in respect to the financial disbursement of assets with my ex-husband.  I mean we haven't even agreed on anything yet because 'the bum' won't turn up to any conciliation meetings.  Boo hoo for me.  Why are people so cruel?  The person you invest your love in can just turn against you and want to see you fall.  I'm not one of those people and that's why I can't understand that kind of mentality.  Anyway, life is a journey and unfortunately mine has taken me to places I don't care to visit but they tell me it will pass.  I sure do hope so. 

Now onto the fashion.  I found this fab coat at Vero Modero the other day.  I love the simplicity of it.  I remembered the smart black and white hand bag from Meiling in my inventory and voila, a smart combo is born.  I couldn't love Mandala jewelery any more if I tried and I nabbed these gorgeous earrings called Omochi in Silver.  I wish I owned everything in the store.

Actually, Chalice looks like I feel.  Brow beaten and battle weary lol. 

I am wondering if anyone else has a problem with their shoes when you turn your preferences to the maximum?  In some heels, my foot sticks out of the shoes despite having all the relevant pieces attached to my avatar.  Very annoying when you pick that perfect pair of shoes and you can't wear them.  I have renderingvolumelod and renderingavatarlod set to 5 or 6 and Anisotropic Filtering set to 8x but it doesn't make a difference.  It's only when I turn down my slider to mild that it disappears.  Any thoughts????

For The Love Of Autumn

While you lucky bunnies are enjoying Spring in the North, we down-under have sashayed into Autumn.  A season I admit I love particularly when the leaves turn russet and we can snuggle inside by the fire.

I've put together an executive look for the smart working girl.  The shirt, pants and belt make up the outfit called 'Marve' from Vero Modero.  Very tailored and well put together..

Ok.  Off to work she goes looking every inch the professional.

Living Glam In Liv-Glam.

Here is the other dress that I purchased on a recent shopping trip to LIV-Glam.  Called the 'Ashdene' dress, it is a lovely mix of gold and black with a fine waist belt.  I couldn't help but buy the shoes that I think compliment the dress so well called XiuLan Embellished Platforms also from LIV-Glam.  They are fabulous with a thick ankle strap of gold and silver squares and leather fringe which falls across the foot.  Beautiful work Miss Jones.  I think my new earrings from Indyra Originals called 'Seven' in Burned Gold are perfect too. 

I donned the new release hair called 'Butterfly Effect' from Bizarre Hair worn in the Platinum White tone.

Linden Lab...pick me...pick me.  I want my picture at the front page of the Second Life Official Site.  I know I'm just a bunch of pixels but it would be nice to be the face that says 'hello potential member'. 

Oh and another thing...my visitor counter at the bottom of the page has damn well reset itself back to 0.  I used to love looking at that seeing how many people had visited.

Sorry but SL was shitful tonight and would not provide the 'picks' option in the various designers profiles so I was unable to give you LM's to some stores.  I have given URL's to their store on Marketplace instead.  Bad, bad SL.
