Moose on the Loose

So apparently there are consequences for trying to do too much to soon after hospitalization, who knew. I am such a bloody perfectionist, sad but true, I put a lot of pressure on myself to do it all, I sabotage myself every time. So to put it simply, I am falling behind on blogging as sleep seems like the smarter option. Apologies to my 5 readers. *lol* The name of this post just came to mind when I threw on this great *Thimbles* Miso Moose Long Sleeve top. I used to be addicted to the show Northern Exposure, and had a collection of Moose dolls. Yes, how lame am I? But this interesting cut out of antlers on the neck of this top is really sweet. I paired it up with a very basic blue jean, these part of a set from *LAST CALL, sadly no longer available, but there are many similar denims on the grid.



When I am going for comfy casual, high heels are the last thing on my list, but I adore these adorable Ughs Boots from Jeepers Creepers, they are just so perfect with skinny jeans. A great big bag from SLink was all I needed as I headed to the Starlust Motel to pick up some great stuff to support the amazingly talented Crystyle Bukowski of Pudge who is going through a rough financial period in her life, the offerings from her friends with proceeds going to Crystyle are fabulous, I urge you all to go check them out. I threw on some wooden and gold accessories, starting with this great Loveletter Locket from (Yummy), scripted to flip open and reveal the lovers in question, you have to get it to see how special it is. Freebie earring from *::UM::* add a little sparkle too. *Fishy Strawberry* has arm fulls of Stacked Wood Bangles, maybe my arms are too short for the left arm stack, but the one for the right arm worked out just fine. (Caroline's) Natural Gold Bead Ring with it's wooden band bring in both the golden and wooden elements I was working with.



Who has heard of The Alice Project Hair? Not me until the Hair Fair, but this Shizuka II style had my name all over it. I love bangs and pony tails, that combination of sexy and cute. The textures are nice and I am anxious to go see what other wigs they offer. Skin by Canimal, and Bedroom Lashes from Cake give a soft sweet look to Glassy Mustard Green Eyes from Freak Fantasia. OK Kids, time to get my slef Moose-y-ing back to bed.

Teal & Pink Frivolity

When it comes to pretty, every girl knows that pink is a great place to start. But doing pink without overdoing it is the trick. This look started when I wanted to throw something casual together to wear while running around Retrology while getting final preparations ready for the 1 Year Anniversary. I started by looking for a top to wear, and was delighted to discover this []::TULI::[] Kimi Top in my inventory, like many others, I have no idea how long I have had it. It was so pretty, I love the obi style sash, and the bows on the sleeves, the print is really lovely too, giving me the opportunity to work in a lot of different colours. I opted for a pair of skinny jeans, and discovered these Emery Zoe Skinny Grey Jeans in Inventory, I tinted them Teal to match the top better, and I am really pleased with how they turned out. Having items like this that you can tint/modify to suit a look is a great way to make your wardrobe go further without dropping a single LaLa.

I opted for a favorite pair of casual Chloe Ballet Flats from Lassitude & Ennui, the delicate Pink colour worked in so well here, and they one of my favorite flats to date. This Pink Frivolity Bag from Paper Couture is a sweet favorite, and I love how the big bow on the bag matched the bow details on the top I wore. On my last trip to Mirai with Anessa, we discovered a great little accessories shop, *::UM::* made this great Earring and Necklace Pendant Set and I love the sort of crackled yellow orange colour of the Gold. ::MEZZO:: also has some brilliant accessories. These sculpted Double Rameacryl Bangle come in a set with at least ten different colour combinations, and I love how they have an almost sparkle to the texture. Also wearing Caroline's Gimcrack Diamond Solitaire Ring.



Another great ETD Hair Style, this sweet casual up-do called Marisella II is really lovely, and Elika's Whites are some of my favorite, particularly with the blackened ends that are by no means randomly placed, they really are placed for the best effect, and depending on the style, more or less prominent. Skin is Celestial Studios Charmed Line, in a sweet pink feminine make-up called Sugar. Separated Lashes from Cake, and Glassy Mustard Green Eyes from Freak Fantasia Complete this look. A little pink, a little frivolous, a lot casual and feminine.

Golden Ruched Ruffles

The day that Myllie Writer released her newest creation for *PERSONA*, this fabulous Debutant Dress, I ran into her while she was setting out the vendors on Retrology. Needless to say I was smitten, the colour choices were brilliant, and I went for the Gold like only an Olympian could. Myllie dropped this sweet minidress on me, and I couldn't wait to slip into it. I love the ruffle at mid-thigh level, really sweet and flirty. The ruched detail down the front is really well done, and I love the appearance of a zipper in the back of the dress. Little details like that make *PERSONA* a favorite for me.

I decided to go for an equally sweet shoe, this pair of Yellow Mary Squares Shoes from .:Periquita are an almost perfect match. I have these in a fatpack, and they are just so well done, I wear them all the time, the colour options are great. The turquoise buttons on the shoes let me bring in some more turquoise in my accessories. This great almost tribal Necklace and Bracelet set from *::UM::*, which is located close to Mirrors & Mirai Style in Takaraduka. I love this Wood + Turquoise Set is really funky, and I think adds some edge to the sweet factor in this look. I threw on some great Bead Hoop Earrings from /artilleri/, which are scripted to change colour with a click. They are endlessly useful. The bag again brings in the turquoise accent, a sweet Beaded Purse from Pampered Princess.



This yuruyuru odango hair has been on my list of "To Get" for a long time, so when I finally made it to *SHOP SEU* last week, I was sure to snap it up. It is really cute, and such a memorable style, very girly. Skin is from [RockBerry], another great make-up, and I love the Dark Brows version of these skins. Bedroom Lashes are from Cake, and Delta Eyes in Hazel are from [Detour].
