Candy Shop Sugar Rush

Week 28 of the 50 Shades of Sexy Blogger Challenge brings us to the dulcified theme of “I’ll take you to the candy shop, I’ll let you lick the lollipop.” I recently purchased the Sugar Rush calendar pose/prop pack from DeviousMind and knew my collection of syrupy poses and props would fill the sugarcoated challenge. Each set in the collection is a concoction of dreamy confectionery props and poetic honeypot poses that are sure to raise your glucose levels along with your heart beat.

I’ll Take You to the Candy Shop, I’ll Let You Lick the LollipopA few months back I blogged this lingerie set in a velvety chocolate color while sailing the intoxicating seas of smexy. The bright candy pink of this romantic set sensuously balances the fun bright colors of the candy. Sweeet! * swoon *

Temptation

Temptation

Those Mad Girls of F*cking Ninjas have released this amazing prop and pose set aptly called, Temptation. The poses are incredibly fluid and I love the curvaceousness of the female pose in the tree. This story is a darkened version of a tale that has been told throughout centuries of a temptation that was taken which has forever darkened the soul. A betrayal that burns so deep it seems to affect all of mankind and each tear shed in remembrance of the forbidden act rips one from believing there is anything good left in humanity. A jolt of reality… a broken heart… a mass of shadowy torment lay in the wake….and a smug sprite that continues with destructive and manipulative ways…. selfishly gloating….self absorbed…lost in ego… we are only human after all.

Xxxooo

Can you hear us cry… wishing we could turn back time?

If I could, I’d rewrite history

I’d choose differently; if I could, I would

I’d leave out the part where I broke your heart

in the garden’s shade, fix the mess I made

If I could, I would

Sheer Anything Blogger ChallengeTakeTwo: Sheer Venus

Sheer Venus ~ 50 Shade of Sexy~ Sheer Anything Challenge

I played around this morning with the image I created of Sheer Venus last night for the Blogger Challenge 50 Shades of Sexy. After seeing it finally completed and walking away…. I returned and did not like the overwhelming diagonal created by the garden shears in the foreground. The idea for the image was also born out of the beautiful tiled beach Gopu and I vacationed at in Tahiti and that fell flat with the chosen WL setting…… along with the beautiful colors that were muted. So take two….. Sheer Venus… a little softer, a little bluer….. sultry, tempting and seductive…..

Sheer Venus ~ 50 Shades of Sexy

I’ve fallen behind again with my submissions to 50 Shades of Sexy and decided to do a theme that I skipped in an effort to catch up called, “sheer anything.” I chose this sweet little number by blowpop in cranberry and little by little my Venus emerged…. seductive, sexy and tempting. Swoon.

Magical Ippos

Magic at Ippos

I love walking through the woods at Ippos and seeing the animals scurry past. I can’t wait to finish this sim project, I think it is going to be beautiful. Today while walking through the forest I came across the most amazing magical sight….. now if I told you it wouldn’t be a secret worth keeping …… 🙂

I have a clothing-crush on this outfit by Senzafine; the textures are amazingly sharp and life like and the skirt is just too adorable. The skirt is cut high in the front and definitely highlights the caboose! The Flutter Boots by lassitude & ennui that I am wearing are probably my most favorite black lace up boots in my vast inventory. I am also literally giving you a sneak peek of the tattoo that will be at the Excuse My French Hunt, I know, I know…. I am evil….. full pictures will follow… I promise. * grins *

Waking Minerva

The Arcade Photography Contest - Duchess Flux

Waking Minerva” takes us to ancient Rome and into the vast heavens that house the gods and goddesses. Unicorns greet each day with a rainbow and carefully awake the sleeping Minerva to bring forth knowledge to the masses and spawn creativity among the artists.

I created the image for the Arcade Gacha Photography Contest ….. It didn’t really come out how I intended… but what really ever does 😛 I wanted more strength coming from the unicorn and looking at it now I should have possibly added fog to bring it all together and activate it more. I challenge myself to not use any sort of photo manipulation during processing…. so everything you see in most of my images is exactly what I see in Second Life….such a purist. Maybe I will try this one again since I like the theme and adore this new pose by elephante poses!

Edited to Add ~  Take Two: Changed the image to one with fog… 🙂

Peek-A-Boo

May 18, 2013 at 2:22 pm (Blogger Challenge, Collabor88, Hide & Seek Hunt, iheartslFeed, Limited Bazaar, Second Life Events, The Garage Designer Fair) (, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , )

50 Shades of Sexy - Peek-A-BooI have seriously fallen behind in the 50 Shades of Sexy Challenge which is such a shame because it is so much fun! On the bright side,the catching up will be a blast and a whirlwind of lingerie purchases (much to Gopu’s pixel delight! Ha ha) This is week 18 and the theme is Peek A Boo which perfectly coincidences with the Hide and Seek Hunt gift from elephante poses, You’ve Got to Hide Your Love Away!

50 Shades of Sexy Bloomers - Peek-A-BooI’ve been wanting to purchase this adorable vintage lingerie set from League for quite some time and since I was going for a vintage look for the Peek-A-Boo challenge theme…. it is now mine… all mine! There are multiple ways to wear the design and a separate pack was included with the lingerie so the items can be worn with outfits. *swoon * The bloomer are just too cute!

Peek-A-BooYesterday Limited Bazaar opened it’s doors and there was a stampede of Maxi Gossamer fans flocking for the first clicks to purchase her limited edition necklaces. Score! Items are on sale at Limited Bazaar until the item sells to 100 people….then the vendor is shut down. There are some truly artistic items this round and the theme is “surreal.”

Peek-A-Boo Eyelashes

Here’s a close up of the eyelashes being offered by Clemmm at Limited Bazaar. They are super cool and even though they consist of a zillion pieces they are probably the best fitting eyelashes I own (and easiest to fit!) I am not sure how many are left, but I’d recommend purchasing these before they are all gone!

Ranger Girl

The Fantasy Faire is winding down tomorrow so if you have not flown in and checked out what all the fluttering is about…. you need to do it soon! Tonight at 5PM slt the Silent Auction ends. The Silent Auction has exclusive items that were created for the event and even one of a kind items! You can check out the items up for auction here.

This years Fantasy Faire has been such a positive event; I’ve been introduced to the amazing creations of the muses (and I am smitten,) I’ve added 16 new friends, donated to a wonderful cause, have an inventory of mystical wealth and treasures, danced with goblins, laughed with drows, played with fairies, kissed a knight in shining armor…. and a frog, and I have marveled at the stunning sims and designs from the talented vendors. Life is good.
