Told you I'd be back luvs! Hope you've all enjoyed your weekend but it's BACK to reality tomorrow! Sadly. Lol. 

We've had a few events start up on us and a few right around the corner. Have you all made it into Collabor88? I didn't on my first try either but I did eventually. Some cute things there for sure, make sure to check it out. 

Had to take a sec to show this super cute dress by Oubliette, which is basically the darker side of Petite Mort lol same awesome creator. These cuties are at Suicide Dollz this round so definitely hit that up and check it out. There are sooo many cute designs to choose from and doll up to your liking! This was a easy Nu-Goth style up though I am sure you could go in many directions with it.

Can't wait to see what you all will do with it! Show me!

Till next time, keep it spooky! <3

"Kiss Me Hard Before You Go..."

I almost never ever have a chance to blog Livalle shoes as they're on for an event so I had to haul ass to get a pic in, especially because I thought the style of these shoes for the 21 Shoe Event was pretty awesome! Slinky and sexy, full of class and sass. Versatility wins with these. I can wear them with my comfy shirt, dress them down with a pair of jeans or dress them up business casual, I can see it all now. So I hope you all have had fun shoe hopping. 

I know there are a lot of events open right now and it's insanely hard to keep up with everything, oh believe me...I know this! Just when you think you've got everything you want, you see something else and you're like awwwwww damn! I so know the struggle. But we're a selfish bunch, we want all the pretty thangs. Don't miss the 21 Shoe Event. It's a one day shoe thing and if you're a shoe lover like me, this is an event you will mark on the calender and do your rounds with a smile! Make Livalle your first stop! <3

Btw, I so got bit by the Lana bug. I love her long time...metal head and all I simply can't deny her loveliness. So, I am sure you will see lots of Lana Del Rey inspired posts!

Voted Most Likely To...{Strawberry Singh's Second Life Yearbook Smile Challenge!}

I almost never have a chance to do Strawberry's meme's but this one I could not put on the back burner. Because no Second Life yearbook is or could be complete without a shot of Gia! So I had to get in a quickie *snickers*. You can find her Second Life Smile Challenge Meme on her blog! Instead of going with a gothy lil look, I decided to dig into my actual roots. Since I'm an 80's kid, I went with the 80's theme! I spent the greater portion of my life loathing the 80's but that's because I was exposed to a lot of the corniness of it. As an adult now, I've embraced that corniness and am also able to see so many more sides to the 80's that I actually love. (Of course I am talking about the goth and punk scene here! lol)

So as for the smiling part. I know I saw many people posting tips on Strawberry's blog on how to get your avatar to smile and woah! I didn't know it was such an issue. I take so many pin-up pictures and whatnot so I kind of got into my own swing of things. I've never tried the mesh smile mouth...it even sounds creepy lol but what I do...mind you, I do NOT claim to be a photoshop professional, I more so claim to be a photoshop screw up that can occasionally luck out and land a few things right lol. So anyway, what I do is simply take two pictures. I use the 'Anypose Expression' Hud which can be found  for free on the marketplace. So I take a picture with me smiling and another one, without changing windlights or the pose, only I unclick the smile option. I then go into photoshop, open both my pictures. I am going to keep and edit the one with the smile on it and only use the other for the eye adjustment. The expression HUD and any smile HUD in Second Life just makes for creeper smiles and wider eyes can fix that. Yes I heard you can make a shape for that but, ain't nobody got time for that! Much easier for me to use the clone stamp tool in photoshop on the non-smiley picture, click on a certain point near the eyes, switch pictures, then clone those more natural looking eyes over the smiley face. I hope that made a little sense. In the above photo, all I did was make a copy of my eyelashes and edit the copied lashes to fit my squinty eyes.
I would love to do tutorials one day but, I so don't feel like any kind of pro to be offering tips or tricks. I kind of just do whatever works for me and hope it entertains you!
By the way...I wasn't voted 'most likely' to do anything, we had quotes. What I was remembered for was being that girl in the science room that laughed hysterically when that one kid read the word 'organism' as 'orgasm' and was sent to the office for knowing what 'orgasm' meant. Oh c'mon! We were in seventh grade!!

Don't Sit under the Apple Tree With Anyone Else But Meeee!

I know I said I was going to limit the amount of pics per post but...yeah this is me limiting! I loved all over this outfit and the scene in general. I was just like "Ok, let me pose here." No Wait!

Right here!

I crave fruits like no other during this time of year and allll through the summer. The when fall arrives, it's more vegetables. That's just my thing I suppose.
If I could though, I would easily spend all my money on fruit while grocery shopping. So, of course I had to do a spring pic with tons of fruitage!

I ran into a plethora of cuteness! Sn@tch released these cute lil dresses and I thought they were soooo cute! How to dress them up? So many ways! I went for a more casual/cute look instead of the super fancy. It's something comfortable and cool that I would definitely rock in my RL. Sn@tch has already released even more! I can't keep up! Make sure to click on the link above to follow Sn@tch on Facebook or follow on Flickr. AND...the dress has a super cute bow that attaches right over the bosom, I just didn't want to wear it for the pics (or *cough* I may have forgot to attach it, edited all the pics and was like awwwww daaaaaaaaaaaaamn! *cough*)
Also, Sn@tch is spoiling us with goodies at such a low price! Look for this...

at the mainstore attached to some of the outfits to find an awesome outfit at an insanely low price! It's why we love our Sn@tch!

My tattoo is another Reckless fav! It's just one of those tattoos that make you adore it from every angle. Check out my sponsor page above to follow Reckless!

The shoes are another new fav! I'll be keeping my eye on this little shop to see what comes up next!
