I'm just the same as I was. Now don't you understand? That I'm EVER changing who I am :)

LOL, some word play.        ..... hair playing, now.

We have a core sense of self... our values, beliefs and how we intend to interact with others that should be our foundation, it is our compass which steers our lives.  But there is a part of our "selves" that should evolve... like the spirit of karma, forever becoming; until we reach that bliss.

In an effort to find hair bliss, I have been experimenting. Here's another modded mesh hair with flexi pieces. This one from Exile :)) with added orchids as a barrette.

I'm Not Here



Spring in my mountain meadow, time to enjoy the flowers, birds, and other sounds of nature. Yesterday, I did some old-fashioned sim hopping. While looking for a place to listen to music, I stumbled upon Ionic; not only do they have cool Indy music to shop by, they have cool Indy merchandise;) I just had to pick up this mesh T-Shirt from one of my favorite bands, Radiohead.




I must caution you when you look at the credits to other things I am wearing, because I mod whatever I can. I am a fan of mesh hair because it stays, and doesn't jab your body like a knife when dancing or moving around, but it lacks movement itself. Some designer have flexi pieces that you can add on. This hair is from Truth, with flexi  pieces from other Truth hair that I modded in from a copy version. And look! it flounces around while I'm in my swing.

Lazy Sunday Shadow Play

I've done a lot of nothing today. It's Spring Break, but my only beach excursion is in my SL sim. I broke out the old surfboard... but the ridable waves are missing in my inventory :(  and there is very little wind.







I've given up messing with the Lolas... I'll wait until Curio makes some applies or something easier comes along. Anyhow....I've also stopped messing with the mesh clothes that aren't perfect and require massive body changes. Then.. dance or pose a little unusual, and the flaws all show:(   Too much fiddling with clothing and attachments! Things are suppose to get easier not harder in SL... LOL.

But I bought some new hair today from Analog Dog, called Ashbury. There's a mesh main part and a flexi attachment which makes for very nice movement. LUV it just like my RL hair when it's ironed and brushed. It's what caused my visit to the beach.


Then I decided to mess around with Windlight and shadows. Turned up the heat.... can feel that blinding sun :))

hair: Analog Dog
Bikini is from Paper Doll at WCF (Lola appliers included but not worn, here)
Skin: Curio Sundust Frex Summer Lake

Yeah! Curio, not the latest, but my favorite. Eyelashes from Maitreya and eyebrows from ROD Studio.

Got Me Some Lolas :)

Well... after visiting Whore Couture Fair in the early hours, I pulled out my Lolas from inventory. I bought the girls a few weeks ago and hadn't had the time to figure out if I like them or not. If you go shopping at The Whore Couture Fair, you'll find a need to have Lolas' mesh breasts, just about all the clothes are made for them. What a marketing ploy!

Anyhow, I have seem some very tastefully done photos (no photoshop used here), and here is my attempt.


The top is The Mini Jacket from *T Whore* (main store link) comes with applier. Shoes are Maitreya Gold - Moxie in Coal, Skirt is from e! Chloe - previously at FaMeShEd, Skin is Curio and hair is from Truth.




At what size point do Lolas get to be ridiculous? bizarre? comical?
