Hey loves!
I have a shit ton to catch up on! I know, I know. I had some fun playing with the new release from Death Row Designs, a wonderful selection of light fixtures that are available at Chapter 4.
There's several different ones to choose from so if you haven't been over to the event, make sure to hop over and grab all the DRD stuff, especially because it is in the 99L room! Lighting is always a great thing to play around with in your SL homes, and as you can see above, even to play around with in pictures <3
Keepin' it short & real. I luv your faces! Be back very soon with all the things I have to haul ass on and some things that I simply think are damn adorbs!

Hey dolls! Surprise surprise! Woooo hit the blog two days in a row baby!!
In all honesty, I've been working on this picture for a couple days though. The idea for it came to me as soon as I listened to a song by Fear Factory. As I said before, music inspires a lot of my posts. It was even more special though because it symbolizes a lot of my personal feelings right now. Don't worry, I'm not going to go in depth about my innermost feels lol but...I suppose it's about complete destruction and an attempt to put oneself back together again, if that is even possible. Trying to understand this machine we use daily, and reprogram it. It's a struggle, and one I am dealing with so much right now.
So I compiled a few of my (cyber-tastic)favorites in this post, I think the only one I am missing in Mystic Canvass! Everyone join in chant with me and beg her to come back to SL and make me all the pretty cyber girl skins! I anxiously await her return <3
But in the mean time... Death Row Designs released this awesome little set for Erotigacha, seriously it's a blogger dream come true. No place to blog? Whip it out babeh! It has several backdrops you have a chance at winning in this gacha and each are pretty awesome! The one I am standing in above is the Sci-Fi set and comes with poses and special effects! The lightning is all part of the sets special effects, not photoshop. Have a look at the others.
So make sure you head over to Erotigacha at the Retroville sim and win allll of the DRD stuff and the other goodies there! Browse around the sim and enjoy yourself too! Really well built and lots of awesome events here and there as you can see. ALSO!! Erotigacha is having a photo contest! Head over to Spirit's Flickr to read the details and enter for a chance to win the loots!
Enough of me being a chatterbox for now. I will be back again soon! <3

I don't know if when I started blogging I thought it was going to be an easy thing to do...I don't think I did but in any case, I doubt I really knew what I was getting myself into lol. Now don't get me wrong. I love it, I honestly do. Though at times, I seem to put myself into predicaments that I just have to shake my head about....and at times I am blessed to run into several things at one time that fit like pieces to a puzzle.
This is one of those times.
My lovely futuristic get-up is by the one and only Frost Kit of FK! Designs. Not new at all to Gia's World, in fact he's one of the ones I admire so much because of his insane talent with texturing! Familiarize yourself with his shop, I promise you will not regret it and while you're doing so, snag this outfit. Oh man, I love it long time! For many reasons. It's a full mesh suit and the body build on it is adorable! From bewbs to butt it will make you a narcissist with your avi. I slapped it together with some newness from A&Y and made a nice mash-up for a cyber femme-fatale!
You can hardly see my nails so here you go...
Unedited pic of another badassery by Dark Passions! Please don't ever get tired of seeing Dark Passions in Gia's World because my nails are pretty much exclusively done by her! What can I say? I love my gothy and spookiness and she does it all with on occasional floral print even!
Part deux of my DRBC special! And I brought another wonderfulness in on this party. You've got about 1 day left to get into the Black Fashion Fair and snag Dark Passions awesome corsets & nails and then they're gone foreverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! (maybe not, she'll probably have them in her shop and the marketplace in no time but still). Also, Dark Passions is participating in the Lovecraft Festival with 50% of the proceeds going to the Autcom charity, it's a good reason to go splurge but also...just because these designers come up with some awesome stuff for this event! Check out my amazing ring! This is a rare in the Dark Passions gacha and Bcreative or simply 'B' as I call her, really put her blood, sweat & tears in this baby! I adore it! I snuggle it randomly <3 Make your way there and enjoy yourself, look around and keep posted on the events. It's a blast!
DRBC's awesomeness is at this round of Suicide Dollz, besides the cute ass skirts, you'll want the heels! Have a closer look at the other options besides the cross print featured above!
Okay my luff & stuffs, have fun snagging all the stuff! See you soon I promise! <3
Has everyone been to District 5 already? Yes? Voted? Scene? Yes? Awesome! Actually I was so torn! I loved a whole lotta things there, just ask my wallet!
But DRBC is participating in the event! Always amazed and excited with DRBC and the new releases. It's like a "Oh my God, what's she going to do next?!" kinda thing. So....here goes my first Double Banger Feature! I might try and do a couple of these with different designers often because...I love on too many of their things!
So my top is a District 5 release by DRBC and if you've been around the DRBC 'scene' then you know FK! Designs released these lil boots that match perfectly with the top. I've blogged these in another print already but I don't care, I'm sure you'll see them around often. I love me some FK! stuff because woooah the texture magics this guy does! If you don't know this shop, get to know it well! Check it out on facebook, flickr, and on the marketplace or go visit them in world in the link I provided below! This is a lil shop you will most definitely love!
So I ran into this lil home at the Missing Mile sim and although I was so tempted to just bust in and take all the bloggie pics, I waited and sent the owner an IM and she was nice enough to let me shoot in her lil trailer. I just loved all the lil attention to detail and realism she had in there. Matched perfectly with the theme I was going for. So thank you so much Jazzy for allowing me all up in your personal space! *smoooches*
Be back in about 2 secs with the 2nd part of my DRBC Double Banger Special!! <3
Hello luvs! Although I usually start my blogs off with a lil rant about the badassery I am wearing or a storyline, I am going to do this one a lil different (although, look at the badassery I am wearing!). I wanted to talk about a topic that has bothered me for quite some time. I'm generally a quiet person. My circle of friends in SL is very very small. After being here for so many years, it has just been my personal learning experience to keep it that way.
So my little rant is on blogger friendliness, mostly towards each other. When I started my little adventure into the bloggy world, I made a great friend. She warned me of jealousy, accusations, and backstabbing that happens amongst bloggers. I kind of giggled and just made a small mental note. As time passed (not too much time even) a lot of that stuff started showing. Not really towards me but I noticed others commenting rudely on photos or adding their two cents here and there on style, etc.
I find it saddening that it's so hard to simply find people that empower you (and in RL too). Why can't we support one another and share blog posts? Be encouraged and encourage others? If someone is inspired by your style and they use it to inspire a look of their own, can you not be excited about someone finding the things you love interesting as well? And can that person take a moment to give credit where credit is due and say 'Thanks to 'so&so' for sparking my interest!'. We can do these things.
I have been blessed to encounter a few bloggers on my journey that have proved that stereotype of mean bloggers to be very wrong. They've helped me, encouraged me, inspired me. If I am trying to find a place to shoot a picture, need an honest opinion, need landmarks, tips on editing a picture, ANYTHING!, they're polite, helpful, always.
One of those ladies is in that top photo with me, yes she gladly went out of her way to let me suck her dry! I love my Kuppy so much and am very proud of how far she's come in her blogging. I'm inspired by her love for it all, her stylings and I adore her for being the friend she is.
Anika, Purz, Aarya, & Vita (luff my Vita!) are also other fellow bloggers that I simply adore for being their awesome selves and great friends. Anika is my partner in crime and preferred pain in the ass though lol. She's the one I spend most of my time with, get in trouble with and laugh with. SL wouldn't be complete without her.
In closing, to my fellow bloggers...encourage, share, and inspire one another. No BS, no accusations, none of that is needed. What it boils down to is all of us basically doing the same thing. Take a pretty picture, share your awesome stylings and brighten someones Second Life. <3
