“Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?"
"That depends a good deal on where you want to get to."
"I don't much care where –"
"Then it doesn't matter which way you go.”
― Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland
The OMG Round 7 has been in full swing for several days now so if you haven't gotten over there yet you're missing out on some fantastic deals.
Today I decided I wanted to be comfortable. I am not feeling up to par in real life, so jeans and a sweater is just what I wanted especially with the weather in the midwest starting to turn abit chilly.
So this comfortable outfit is by Aurora's Closet called Mollie. What's nice is if you go to the OMG Event you have your choice of 5 different colors as well as a choice of other clothes that she has for sale. I have to admit I'm fast becoming a huge fan of her clothes.
After finding the perfect outfit, I took a jaunt around SL to take pictures today instead of staying home. I love seeing all the wonderful things that Second Life residents do with their sims and the sim I visited today was wowowsers! Woodsy is just that, I didn't even walk very from where I teleported in because I found so many wonderful spots! I definitely want to go back and just enjoy the autumn scenery.
The lightening, the sim, the bridge, everything was just wonderful. Kind of just keeps me falling in love with fall.
The jeans and the sweater are by Aurora's closet. The necklace I am wearing is by LB Jewels Storm Necklace silver ALSO available at the OMG Room round 7.
I'm feeling kind of romantic in a dark sort of way. I've been playing with a scene in my head for quite some time for this new pose/prop from Something New Poses and Props called Black Panther Widow. Of course, the first thing that pops in my head is a song called Black Widow but I just couldn't wrap my brain around the song and the prop. So I went costume shopping hoping to find inspiration for another one of Something New Poses that I have sitting on our sim and I found this outfit by AdN on marketplace and was like... THAT IS IT! So while talking to Ally about stalking her which I really wasn't doing I popped to her store which popped me right outside her skybox which I was really trying to go to Image Essentials because Kay has an awesome sim for taking pictures. I just couldn't figure out what I wanted to do still so Ally said try "Done Wiv a Twist." I was a little sad cuz I couldn't rez but you know Ally is just amazing and stopped what she was doing to come rez this wonderful panther!!!
I talked my husband Cedric into coming along to take pictures.. He likes the dark, gothy photo's so I knew He'd take some fantastic pictures. I can't say I'm disappointed at all!
I picked up some nails on the last day of The Thrift Shop by Dark Passion-Koffin Nails. I love her creepy, gothic yet FUN polishes. These are called Zombie Night.
There are 9 different colors to the hud but these are just two that I picked. I'm also using Something New Poses and props pose called "Blog my hands" available in the main store of Something New Poses and Props.
Here's another great look at the panther in a brighter light, he has so much detail to him! I felt like a Victorian Gothic Princess sitting astride him.

With summer ending I'm feeling blah. I love the autumn weather, the beautiful changing of the leaves and the crisp air when it starts to turn abit cold. Mostly I love the fall decorations, the sound of leaves crunching under your feet as you walk, and Halloween. Halloween and Fall is probably one of my favorite seasons. But then Fall brings on winter and though the snow is beautiful, I'm not a fan of the cold and the ice. Sure if the snow could stay white and pretty before anyone steps into it, or drives in it I would like the snow better but that never happens and the dreamy beautiful snow then becomes yuck. But it is beautiful while it lasts and gives life a new chance for spring. That's what I enjoy.
When the weight of the world
Breaks down so strong it
Leaves footprints on the street
And there's too many miles to face
Without a few more hours sleep
The storm clouds overhead wont shed
Any rain to quench your thirst
I wanna be the one you reach for first
I've been playing with a photo editor as I prepare to begin my new Photoshop class. I am hoping to improve the quality of my pictures as well as my blog. It's funny that even in second world a place of beautiful bodies, perfect hair and clothes that we can still suffer self esteem issues and get beaten down and hurt by others. So that's one of the reasons why I've been "playing" with pictures and getting a new feeling for my blog. I've debated on whether I wanted to change it like so many others do with just a picture, a location and be done with it. But that's not me, that's not why I like to blog. I love sharing my passion for creators and telling all I can about what I buy and where I buy it and sometimes WHY I buy something. Sure sometimes it's from a blogger pack but most of the time I blog for them because I have a passion for them and for what they're selling so I want to share it as much as I can.
My whole outfit in this post is by MOoH! The V-Neck Top, the jeans and the necklace all MOoH! I have to say that I love these jeans, they make my butt look good, they're my most favored SL jeans. They come in an outfit called "Love Me Casual" which can be purchased on Marketplace.
The V-Neck Crop Sweater is a new release for The Promenade Gacha Event that runs October 1st to October 31st. There are 14 color choices and 3 rares to be had in this gacha. I'm in LOVE with this sweater. It lets me have my summer but also helps me ease into the fall weather. :)
The necklace is Gothic Necklace Purple that can be found in a gacha at MOoH! Flagship Store Location. IF you've not been to the new store you should totally go, it's magical. Truly Dalriada Delwood did a great job with her new store and it's wonderful just like she is!

In this picture I am wearing a new polish from Dark Passion: Koffin Nails called Leaf Me to Fall. I bought these at The Thrift Shop and they're on sale there til the end of today (Sept 29th) so if you like it as much as I did then hurry over before it's gone. I'm not sure if the talented creator (Bcreative Wilde Heart (Bcreative Wilde)) puts them in her store after events are over but it's worth a shot to check out! She also has a marketplace store: Dark Passion Marketplace
The pose in the top picture and the 2nd picture are by Something New Poses and Props by Allyson Dwyer. The first pose where I'm standing is called Callie. This is for sale at the main store location it's upstairs but browse around you'll find amazing poses! The second pose is from her series of Peek-a-boo Hands, which are also a NEW release available on the 2nd floor of her store! :) There are several different poses that show off the hands but giving you a peek a boo game of what's beneath, they're totally adorable.

This might be one of the commons, but I don't think there's really anything "common" about it. I want them all!
This pose is by Frozen that I picked up at the Four Seasons Market which runs 9/21-10/5. I've never been to this event but I was really impressed by the quality of designers here. I hadn't heard of Frozen poses either but they're someone I'll be keeping my eye out for. I bought several things from this event and for those of you who like freebies several of the creators have gifts out for you.
Strut, pout, put it out, that's what you want from women
Come on baby, what you takin' me for?
Strut, pout, cut it out, all takin' and no givin'
Watch me baby while I walk out the door
(Song Lyric by Sheena Easton-Strut)
There are SO many events on the grid right now, so where do you start? Where do you end? How do you find the best deals? Well, I'm here to tell you of a few, so STRUT your stuff over to Thrift Shop for this fabulous pose set by Kay Weston of Image Essentials Poses/Props and more. It's called Sashay! And man do I feel beautiful and sexy as I sashay through poses for you
There are 5 poses with 5 mirror poses. It's great if your'e wanting to show off a certain outfit or just sashay through a blog.
The outfit I am wearing is by [FORMIS DESIGNE], which is a gift. It comes with jeans, shoes, a tank top with a hud for 3 different looks. It also comes with appliers for: Phat Azz, Cute, Banned, WOWmeh, and Physique Slink. It's quiet comfy! (Available at Round 7 of OMG Room see below for more information about this event.)
After the Thrift Shop, you can walk, run, teleport, sashay, or strut yourself over to My Attic @ The Deck where you can pick up some retro hair by .ploom called Sierra for 95L until the end of September. I lovvve my .ploom and KOY hair!
Starting September 26th we begin a new round of OMG Room, round 7 to be exact which features some amazing designers! I've enjoyed learning about a whole new world of creators.
The outfit I am wearing is by [FORMIS DESIGNE], which is a gift. It comes with jeans, shoes, a tank top with a hud for 3 different looks. It also comes with appliers for: Phat Azz, Cute, Banned, WOWmeh, and Physique Slink. It's quiet comfy!
The next outfit is called Bekah also by [FORMIS DESIGNE] comes with a top with wings, 5 different sizes. Pants with a hud for 9 different color choices. Bracelets and mesh shoes. This creator has quite a few outfits at the OMG Room so you won't be disappointed!
This wonderful slink nail appliers are by: beauty by alaskametro<3 Slink manicure/pedicure - Metallic Pack: Diva/Silver. The creator is someone new to me, she has a marketplace store with all her products but if you follow her on facebook you get neat promotional codes that you can go to her store in world and pick up clues to getting goodies. It's worth a look! Plus she's affordable which all of us like!
They are not at any event. These were bought on Marketplace.
Look for more from the OMG event in the coming days!
Awhile back I got this wonderful group gift from Something New Poses and Props. When I opened it, my husband Cedric was like "WE have got to use that!" so it sat in my inventory due to vacation to Florida finally before we left for another trip within a 2 week period Cedric was like "WOMAN! sit down, slow down and take a breath." He took some amazing pictures. Thank you love. These are all raw, unedited pictures. I didn't even crop them as they're beautiful as their own.
Allyson Dwyer is the awesome creator of Something New Poses and Props, this group gift is called Undisclosed Desires. I am in love with this pose creator. She's super nice and very giving. The pose is the chair, and I passed the cherry off to my husband. I think what I love about it is the blindfold that comes with it, because you're putting absolute faith in someone else. I trusting Cedric to know what's best for me. Even though he knows I don't like cherries. :))
The dress I am wearing in the first shot is Formal-Bridget-Red Creator: Tori Xavorin (torid Silverweb) of Tori's Stylez
The second dress I am wearing is by 1 Hundred, called Sweet Princess Dress. White we weren't really sure what look we were going for so we chose a few different things.
The hair I am wearing is by .ploom, it's one of her new releases called Brooke.
Cedric is wearing a suit by Deadpool Deaths Suit, creator DeadpoolXX I am not sure if this is available on marketplace as we bought it at an event awhile ago. I couldn't find an inworld store so linked to their marketplace store.
Squee! I love cats! I DO! I DO! I finally got over to the One Word event today because I just needed to have my fix on cuteness! This event is a bi monthly event. Words are picked by SL uses, and then voted on by anyone who votes. So this month was CATS! :) The event is on the //elephante poses and props sim. Decorated quite adorably. I had to take a picture to show how cute of a job they do.
There are a lot of wonderful creators here but I only snagged a few! I loved this adorable dress by Wimey (creator Sash Arabello)
This shows off the front and the back. ADORABLE right? And it wasn't very many lindens at all! I had to have it. It's cute, adorable and whimsical!
Pose used: //elephante poses// Pompeii *September 2014 Subscriber Gift* One of 3 great poses.
The headband I am wearing is by pr!tty called imeow - .Headband and is the Oneword Group Gift!
The whiskers another adorable thing I just had to have, can't play a kitty without whiskers! So the store is called: [CerberusXing] creator Kamayari. I have to say I'm in love with these little whiskers.
This beautiful necklace and earring set I just HAD to have. I had to go digging in my hair for short hair so I could show it off! (Short hair by KOY called HANNI but I didn't buy it at this event.) So the jewlery is by creator Krystal Jenkins of Krystal Fine Jewelry there are 4 different styles to this, but I picked the silver with the diamonds. Again, I didn't spend very much linden on this, so it was well worth the trip for me. Quality at a low affordable price. I'm sold!
The creator [CerberusXing] is very imaginative and I'm a dork that I like how creators can go out of their way even in their packaging. I had a good giggle out of this.
(more on this outfit by 2Chez and look coming up in another post. Promise!)
Next we have make up and polish by The {Wicked} Peach creator Autumn Amaranth. I have had fun trying different nail polish creators, it's been very weird not wearing the same polish by the same creator but stepping outside of ones comfort zone sometimes is a good thing. Plus, I'm finding new and fabulous finds on the road to self discovery. So that's a good thing! I'm not very big into facial make up, but I really liked the look of the eyeliner/eye shadows by The Wicked peach, and the polishes were just to cute to pass up. I actually couldn't pass many of the polishes on this trip to be honest! But here's the MEOW polish for both hands and feet. I wound up getting the fat pack but only showing my hands.
This polish comes in 6 different colors, but I'm only showing 3. The other colors not shown are yellow, green and orange which are PURRFECT for Halloween! Such fun polishes with fun colors.
Pose used: //elephante poses// Pompeii *September 2014 Subscriber Gift* One of three great poses.
Bella Ellephante is the "makeup" store of //elephante// poses her nail polishes for this event are called "Here Kitty Kitty"I love the detail she put into her kitty's. The cute lil face peeking up as if to say "Ha! I see youz!" There are 10 polish colors in all for those that like dark and pastel colors, this is a good polish to choose. Only 4 of the 10 are shown.
The last nail polish I'm going to show you is by [Fetch]called Kitty Moon, and the adorable chair I am sitting in is called [Fetch] Meow Chair - Princess. Creator of [Fetch] Gretchen Wienerschnitzel (DistortedDreams) There are 6 different color combos to this polish and the chair has several different poses.
The outfit in the last three pictures is by MOoH! (NOT at the One Word Event). The cute sexy tank top can be found at the Unique Varied Event until Sept 22nd. The jeans are the jeans from Love Me Casual outfit which is part of Dalriada Delwood's older line FBD, which you can find on marketplace
Phew! These were only a few of the MANY things you could buy at the One Word Event. It runs from September 1st to September 30th. It's a Bi-Monthly Event. Hopefully you'll hurry over before it's gone! It's worth a shopping spree!
The OMG Room is a new event for me. I've been to it a few times in the past, bought a few things but now I'm blogging for them. I feel OMG right now myself because this fantastic event ends tomorrow. (Sept 15th) so I feel kind of bad. It's been a crazy month for me. First we went to Florida then I had to make a fast trip to Wisconsin to see my son who's in his first year of college.. Phew! So tonight I'm sitting down to do what I love.. Blogging! And showing everyone some really great clothes for decent prices at a fantastic event!
So where to start! All of these wonderful creators, some are new to me, some not. I decided to start with the creator I work for. Dalriada Delwood of MOoH!
