Basic B*tches: A Skittles Meme

Ms. Unicorns and Rainbows herself (Skittles) decided that she was going to give us a meme to chew on and this is one that I actually found quite easy to do! Our mission, to blog about the basic items we can’t leave home without in SL.  Easy peasy, right?

For the record, these shots have mucho minimal editing because I wanted you to get the true flavor of the items I’m wearing. <3

Basic B*tches_002

We’ll start at the top and work our way down, yes?

Hair: Up until recently I was strictly a Truth kinda girl. In brown’s I wore espresso, in red’s I wore Jupiter and since I’ve gone blonde, Oasis is my go-to color. Lately though I find myself wearing more and more Exile hair (American Woman in Vanilla shown above).

Skin: I will admit, I have a skin collection that rivals Lucie Bluebird’s, but in the past year I have pretty much been a straight Izzie’s girl, with the occasional daliance with Aux and Glam Affair. However, last night I purchased my very first Laura Hurley skin (Lina in Milky shown above) and I think I now have a new everyday favorite.

Shape: Mine – ever changing and all mine.

Eyes: Well, I’m not much of an eye person. I’m kind of lazy at it really. I mostly wear Curio‘s Tragic Ocean eyes because well… why not?

Lashes: Ok, I may be the only blogger on the planet that fails at mesh eyelashes but I cannot, for the life of me, get them to look good in a photo. My solution? I have this set of tattoo lashes that I got EONS ago in a skin set I got from Curves Shapes and Skins, and I just love them. The one’s I wear the most are Lashes 3.

Lips: I mostly wear a nude lip for everyday wear. A few months ago Izzie’s released a set of Glossy Lip Highlights that have become a staple in my beauty regime.

Jewelry: I rarely wear anything but Maxi Gossamer jewelry. I love Maxi’s style and the fact that she has a jewelry set for just about any outfit you can dream up. It truly is THE place to go for that perfect accent to a cute outfit. Today I’m wearing a favorite, the Marrakech Heart. This one also happens to be available in RL on Maxi’s Shapeway site!

Movin’ on down…

Undies: Ladies we have all been there, you’re wearing that cute new mesh dress, you’re at a party and you take a seat trying to look all cool and collected and HELLO… your cookies are out there for all the world to see! Mhmm, you know it’s true. I wear undies just about every single day in SL to avoid that kind of embarrassment. (Izzie’s Jolie Bra and Panties in Rose pictured above). Now, my favorite color is pink and as my dear friend Skylar likes to point out every single damn day, the pink panties don’t look much different from my cookies. Hence my new nickname, Cookie. Thank you Skylar.

Shoes: You will rarely, if ever, see me without  my Gos shoes, or my Gos arched bare feet. (Gos Grace Sandles in Mirror shown above).

YAY that was fun! Thanks Skittles for the Meme and I hope you do more of them!

P.S. My poses are from Adorkable and are available at Zodiac until the 12th!

Zodiac & The Garden: I’m Losing Myself

Feeling a little melancholy tonight so I’ll skip the cutesie blog-speak and get down to the details. The Taurus round of Zodiac has begun and runs through May 15th and features some incredible creations such as this dress by Lassitude & Ennui and the poses by !Bang.

Taurus and The Garden_1

Also, don’t forget The Garden, this month’s theme is English Tea Party and Isla from Cheeky Pea really brought her A-game with this whimsical garden set.

Taurus and The Garden_2

I can’t go without mentioning the Taurus skin from Essences available now only at Zodiac. With each release I fall in love with Essences skins just a little more, and this is no exception.

Details below the lyrics -

Magic Doors – Portishead

I can’t deny what I’ve become
I’m just emotionally undone
I can’t deny, I can’t be someone else

When I have tried to find the words
To describe this sense absurd
Try to resist my thoughts
But I can’t lie

I’ve been losing myself
My desire I can’t have
No reason am I for

I can’t divide or hide from me
I don’t know who I’m meant to be
I guess it’s just the person that I am

Often I’ve dream’t that I don’t wait
Enjoy the gift of my mistake
Like then again I’m wrong and I confess

I Wish You Were Here…

I know I should be screaming from the hilltops that Pose Fair has begun, but I’m pretty sure you guys are already aware ;)  Besides, I’m a little mopey because my man is away this weekend so you’re just going to have to deal with my mushy lovesick posts!

Keliah of Picture This! has really outdone herself with this set of exquisite Artistic Nude poses. The set comes with 3 poses, each with mirrors and they are very thoughtfully made and are exclusively at Pose Fair right now.

Now, back to the mushy… tonight would have been perfect if he were here. ;)

Shallow it seems but I need you here
From me to you, I know I can’t feel a thing
Oh, sing me to sleep
I wont fight it when you leave

Oh, I wish you were here
I wish you were here
I wish you were here.

Desperate it seems but I can’t breathe
Are you real?
Are you real?
I can’t feel a thing
And this machine won’t stop
Be here when I wake
Sing me to sleep
I wont fight it when you leave
Sing me to sleep
I wont fight it…

Intoxicate Me: 50 Shades of Sexy

When people about being “intoxicated” it usually brings to mind whimsical misadventures due to the overindulgence of their favorite alcoholic beverages. Some regretful, some not.

Intoxicate Me: 50 Shades of Sexy

What Intoxicates Me?

When I think of what really intoxicates me, I tend to focus on intoxication of the senses and the mind. Sure, sure, I love a good glass of wine, and it can definitely help lift my inhibitions. But, what really intoxicates me is a man with intelligence, sophistication and a wicked wit. There really is no greater aphrodisiac than a man with a brain and exquisite taste.

Intoxicate Me: 50 Shades of Sexy (2)

Someone with class, a magnetic personality, and style. Now that, my darlings, is intoxicating.

Take care of each other.
