Hi Guys!!! It’s been a long time….I know! I have missed you! I never intended to be away for so long! I guess I owe those of you who have not heard an explanation!
During my recent annual “vacation” to the states, I contracted bacterial meningitis and became deathly ill…LITERALLY. I spent a little over a week in intensive care in a coma on a ventilator, a few days out on the general floor and then had to go back to the hospital twice daily for IV antibiotics for an additional week! Then it took me a couple more weeks to get my strength back and re-learn some basics, like walking and taking a shower by myself!
To make matters even worse, the love of my life, Vanish, was stuck 5000 miles away and had a very difficult time getting to me. He was worried sick and I hate that he had to go through that alone! But with the help of some very good friends, he was able to get to me and help me with my recovery. (Thank you, my prince.)
We are home now and let’s just say I am glad it is over. Well kinda over…I still have TONS of Doctors appointments to make and go to. So…I will be a busy girl for quite some time. But I have really missed SL, missed blogging and missed being able to share with you guys! Please be patient with me while I get back to some semblance of a schedule.
The outfit I am wearing today is mostly made of things that have been sitting in my inventory for quite some time, but when I put them all together I just LOVED the look and I could not just leave them in my inventory. I wanted to share them with you! I will get some new stuff! And I will share that with you too. But when I tried this on and saw that the name of this outfit was “Time machine”…I thought it quite apropo. I would truly LOVE to find some type of time machine that would allow me to skip the last few weeks of my life….perhaps if I just wore the right dress…;)
STYLING NOTES
Nails: Nylon Outfitters (NO) – Nail Art – Gold Snowflake (I found these at the last round of Collabor88!)
Necklace: WTG Jewelers (+:+WTG+:+) – **chamomile** necklace (This is something I have had in my inventory for a while, but ANYTHING from WTG is absolutely gorgeous and you will NEVER be disappointed. AND their group gifts are STUNNING!)
Shoes: Donna Flora – ALICE (I bought these shoes many moons ago from Donna Flora. I stopped by the Donna Flora store and did not see these shoes there. I am sure many things from the original store are no longer available, but there are SOOOO many things there that are just BEAUTIFUL. And there were plenty of shoes that would have been lovely with this dress. Any one of them would have done! If you have not been to Donna Flora lately, it would be a wonderful tribute to Squinternet to stop by and buy something. If you have NEVER been to Donna Flora, then you have missed out! Be sure and stop by this amazing shop that is held in tribute to one of the best designers of SL)
Outfit: Ever An Angel – Time Machine Skirt & blouse Olivine (This outfit is available in 7 muted shades and I love the “old-time” feel I get when I put it on. Please note that there is no demo for Ever An Angel’s clothing, but if you are willing to modify your shape they will help you with fitting the garment if needed. There is a disclaimer on the first floor of the shop. Be sure to read it. That being said, don’t let that stop you from taking a look at the shop. There are many of their items that I just LOVE and I think you will too!)
Hair: Analog Dog – Mochi copper ( I cannot remember if I got this on sale at Analog Dog or not, but there is very little hair that I do not just adore there! If you are looking for curly, wavy or ethnic hair this should be your first stop!)
Lashes: glow studio – Lashes Italia (sweet)
Skin: Izzie’s – Lila Skin light christmas flower GB (This skin was offered at the last round of TDR Fusion, as a special version of Lila….you can still find this version…along with the “regular” version of Lila at Izzie’s main store. I also noticed a “Clearout” box on the counter of the main entrance for only 10L and it has a TON of beautiful Izzie items that you NEED! I have NO idea how long that will be left out….so RUN!!)
Eyes: IKON – Ascension Eyes – Moor
Poses: Purpleposes – Model poses
Location: Venexia (Venexia is an ADULT role play sim. You must either be a member or have a guest pass to explore.)
