Playing Dress up at Nana's

I love and miss my Grandma, not going to lie... Yes it seems random to say, but it will all make sense if you bear with me and keep reading. Today is my MC Sister Lilian's 50th Birthday and so last night we threw her a little party. Her chosen theme was old people and so we created a retirement home that we filled with Techno! 
Though this morning, I was sitting drinking my tea, and my favourite little friend came to visit... She came to see Granny Rudh, dressed like Granny Rudh LOL... TOO CUTE!!! 
Isn't my little granny baby so freaking cute... I've been seeing them all over the place, and I HAD to have one. I always swore no babies, but I couldn't resist her, I NEEDED Her!!! She's my little RudhBone... She's someone I bought from Black Bantam - a Old Lady Costume Baby - and is a weird messed up love child of myself and Mara, with some HellBone on the side, named RudhBone by Chopper LOL... Poor little bubba...
But then I needed lot look like a little old lady for Lil's party... My first idea is to always reach for the Izzie's Face Wrinkles, then some white or in this case gray hair... A Pant suit and string of pearls later then all I needed was a cardigan, which thanks to MOMOCHUU I can also wear as a blanket when it's cold. 

What is she wearing;
Hair: Blues - Lunaire (Past Gift) 
Skin: Glam Affair - Seya in Europa 2 
Wrinkles: Izzie's - Face Wrinkles Appliers 
Glasses: Remarkable Oblivion - Talamasca Frames (Past Group Gift) 
Cardigan: MOMOCHUU -  WeiWei Knit Cardigan in Blanket RARE (Available until February 12th at The Epiphany
Necklace: Alienbear - Pearls Double Necklace in White 
Outfit: Bens Boutique - Evelyn Outfit in White-Gray

Honey for Pooh

Tomorrow is a special day at Hair Fair, and I will be able to share that with you then but for today, I wanted to take some time out and revert to something a little childish... 
Hair Fair is all about raising money for the children in need of wigs due to circumstances beyond their control... So I think it's apt that I do something a child would appreciate, just this once! Of course, it has to be Disney related... 
I mentioned before that my mother used to read me fantasy stories, but it was my father that actually introduced me to Winnie the Pooh. 
I was at a little Gacha event called The Gacha Guardians, where I stumbled across this adorable gacha set by comet, the 100 Acre Wood Gacha that is complete with Pooh, Piglet and if you're very lucky Eeyore! 
Now to attract the bees and make some more honey for Pooh, I'm wearing a pretty Sunflower in my hair - a new hair from Wasabi Pills for this year's Hair Fair!! 
Anyone think of sharing my honey?

What is she wearing;
Hair Accessory: BOOM - Sunflower Hair Decor in Original 
Hair: Wasabi Pills - Elle Mesh Hair in Reds (Available until July 16th at Hair Fair 2017
Skin: Glam Affair - Seya in Europa 2 
Mouthie, Cup & Pets: comet + - 100 Acre Wood Gacha Items (Available until July 31st at The Gacha Guardians
Top: Bens Boutique - Tanya Blouse in Denim 
Pants: KITJA - Lexi Jeans in Khaki 
Pose: Signature Pose - Zimi

Romantic Paris

I'm feeling a little bit soppy this morning, as I woke up thinking about relationships... Many people come to SL seeking love and end up getting burnt! Heck I've been there too, falling for people that won't be reciprocating my feelings and realising too late that the things I loved about my craziness have changed... I spent a lot of time and took a lot of chances when it came to finding a SLove, but when I finally stopped looking, love in a HellBone shape appeared...
Now OK I am rambling BUT it's all because I took a very romantic walk through Paris alone - Hell doesn't do romance anymore LOL - and it just stirred things up, making me feel all soppy, sentimental and romantic...
Paris Je T'aime is a home location for a number of great stores, but the location on it's own is really worth wandering around in. It's very pretty and really captures the romance of Paris...
Now I may get into trouble for this, and I am a bit of a bad blogger but I am late with blogging this amazing dress. To be fair I had the picture ready to edit but only yesterday did I have a chance to get any editing done! This is one of those very gorgeous dresses that I needed somewhere special to wear... I chose Paris... It's a Petite Mort Cabaret Velvet Dress in a Rose colour - don't gasp in shock, I know I don't wear pink often - and there are 5 different colour options to choose from. These gorgeous dresses were available until yesterday - hence why I may be in trouble - as an event release for the Lovecraft Festival, which has now closed and I am hoping these dresses are moved to the main store!
I kept everything else simple with this look - hair and shoes were both very understated - the only exception being this gorgeous Posy of Southern Magnolias in a pretty Sorbet colour from, in my personal opinion, the best flower makers in SL - LODE!
Perhaps her bouquet was a romantic gesture from some secretive stranger as she wandered home through the streets of Paris... A beautiful dress and a beautiful bouquet, all adds to the romance of the scenery...

What is she wearing;
Hair: Truth - Velma in Reds
Skin: Glam Affair - Seya in Europa 2
Tattoo: [White Widow] - Chocolat in Black
Dress: Petite Mort - Cabaret Velvet Dress in Rose
Flowers: LODE - Southern Magnolia Hand Accessory in Sorbet (Available until August 24th at Chapter Four)
Shoes: Bens Boutique - Odette High Heels in Burgundy
Pose: Image Essentials - Sheer Class 4

Paint the Sky...

I am running a little late with some of my blogging... I am sorry to everyone that I blog for and to those of you that read my ramblings, I mentioned I was sick but it just felt like I lost my blogging mojo there too for a while, and it's taken a little bit to kick start things back up again! I needed to find something that got me excited and happy, something that would be a good kick start... I spent a while looking through all of the pretty things that I'd been sent and although the mind block was there I decided to go exploring...
I found the best place to start my imagination going again, It all starts with a smile...
I was wandering around the beautiful sim, looking for inspiration, and luckily this place has it in abundance... Then I spotted the gorgeous sign, made by MadPea, that tells you to "Paint the Sky, Make it yours"... An idea came to be like a bolt of lightning striking me in the butt...
I had these awesome "On the Gogh" things, an awesome release from nefarious.inventions, that includes a collection of Paint Brushes in large - for display - and smaller for use perhaps sizes, and some portable paint colours as backpacks. Each of the colours is made up of various things that will give your paintings a real personal feel... Such as here where I am Painting the Sky, Making it mine, using paint that contains my hopes and dreams... Such a romantic idea right?!
My hopes and dreams right now are that I can paint the sky and make myself feel like me again... I just hope I don't get into any trouble for being so late!

What is she wearing;
Hair: Truth - Henya in Reds (Available until March 3rd at Whimsical)

Top: Apple May Designs - Tied Tops in Black
Pants: Bens Boutique - Carrie Pants in Black

Sunday, Chore Day... Carwashing Time!

The weekend is always a time for getting chores done, and this weekend for me in RL was no exception... My mother was thinking about coming for a RL visit - something that I will always refer to as a Royal Visit - so my house and everything in it has to be spotless... Even the dog will be getting a bath, little does she know it yet!
In SL I couldn't escape the cleaning though either... One of my closest friends asked me to help him out by washing his car... Little did I know he'd be sat with a cold beer watching whilst I cleaned the entire car LOL...
OK so that's not entirely how it played out lol but it's the way it looks in the photos and well, you know me I like to tell a good story too!!
One of my closest friends, Mongo, has been building cars again recently and they are very cute cars. He's not officially starting to sell them yet, but when he subtly hinted at would I like to take some pictures with one I couldn't really say no! Lil Bastid is too cute to say no to LOL...
PLUS I'd just been sent the perfect poses from
Image Essentials for the job... They came with a different car to pose on, but as with all of the awesome poses from Image Essentials you can take them from the object and use them seperately! I LOVE YOU for doing this Kay, it's such a brilliant idea! You can get yourself these poses and a car - if you're lucky - from The Depraved Nation Thrift Shop!
My outfit was something that I kinda threw together and even though Mongo wasn't with me while I was shooting the pictures, there were definitely no complaints about my choice of outfit LOL... The shorts were my old, go-to denim shorts from SAKIDE, but the top was brand new. It's a wet t-shirt from Miss Canning, which is great as it includes various different colours of skin through the wet top PLUS waters in various colours LOL... Then when teamed with a pair of the Valeria Heels from Bens Boutique it was PERFECT...
Damn good for giving a show, as the collage of photos I've made shows, and well only Mongo has the fullsize set LOL!!! He was talking about using me as an incentive to get people to buy his cars... Buy two get Rudh free kinda deal?! Wonder how Hell will take that LOL...

The Spankings are just the Beginning...

Sometimes a girl can be sweet, pretty, shy even, but at other times that same girl needs to let her hair down and act like a bad girl... When it comes to playing with the biker boys, this latter girl can be seen fairly often! It's definitely one of the perks of being in the Biker business LOL, not all biker boys I've met reach the standards of the Gator boys - they are rigorously tested by a team of crazy women LOL - but for the record biker boys tend to be fun... A little dirty perhaps, but that's never a bad thing hehe...
Anyway, a few months back I was sent a pose from one of my favourite pose designers... I challenged the MC to remember it and a few days later one of the boys asked if he could do it for me LOL... I was busy but he kept asking - he's nothing but persistant when it comes to giving spankings, that's for sure LOL - and so finally I caved in an let him colour my bum, just a little LOL...
Chopper was so eager to help me with this pose, he waited for MONTHS lol... With that kind of dedication, how could I not let him be the one to spank the monkey - sorry I mean bunny - while I was laying on his lap in a filthy bus stop LOL...
The pose was the entire reason for this picture - though Chopper being persistant did help a little - and OK it's an older one now, but still something you can get your tingling, spanky hands on at the Signature Pose mainstore! Just look for the Spank the Bunny pose and you found it!
The outfit I wore gave Chopper a bit of an easy time durning this spanking... The dress is one from [I<3F] called Something Missing... I wonder if you can work out what it is that's missing LOL... I'll give you a hint, it's allowed Chopper to leave my bum a little pink LOL... The red marks coincidentally are available either from the hands of Chopper OR if you're less into pain and want the look for yourself, you can get them from the store Ama.
From the look on my face you can tell I enjoyed getting the redness in the conventional manner, but I warn you ladies out there, biker boys are dangerous... The spankings are just the beginning LOL...

Back to Bed

It's early-ish on a Sunday morning and I really don't feel like I should be out of bed... BUT it's the first Sunday of the month and that means HellBone is up early, stomping around like an elephant to get ready for his RL MC meeting... He did bring me some breakfast in bed, a redeeming factor that he's lucky for, but I'm one of those people that once I'm awake, I cannot get back to sleep! 
So I got up, I made some more tea, and then I got back into bed in SL lol... 
It's always peaceful here at this time in the morning... None of the MC are around, and when Lil is off with Hell in RL Biker mode, I have the sim to myself... All you can hear is the sound of the crickets and the swamp animals... Sometimes it's more peaceful here than at home in RL lol...
My new bed is a HUGE truck from Consignment, perfect for the Swamp, it's already rusty, but least this way I won't worry about it getting wet... It's the perfect size for me and my new plushie... A Tweedle from Katat0nik,... I LOVE HIM SO MUCH and he doesn't steal all the space in the bed, like HellBone does LOL... 
Now just one more thing, I know you're probably wondering why the heck I decided to go to bed in my boots... WOULDN'T YOU?? These boots are amazeballs, and I haven't taken them off for anything besides taking a photo LOL...  Get your pair from Reign, at this month's Uber, but I warn you, the patterns are so gorgeous, you won't know which to choose... I was sensible at first, I picked the plain black, as black goes with everything pretty much, but I think I may - when I can bring myself to get out of bed - go back to Uber and get some funky patterns on my boots hehe...

What if I lose you?!

I need to take a little time out, I need to think and you know what, this is always the perfect place for me to do so. I really hope you don't mind, and if you'd rather not be forced to read my ramblings then you can always scroll to the bottom of the post to find out more about my outfit.
The location I sat in to spend some time musing over the thoughts in my head is a delightful little place called Calypso Caffe and it seemed perfect for mulling the thoughts plaguing my brain. I grabbed a RL coffee, parked my pixel butt and now I'm going to divulge my thoughts in my usual rambling fashion.
You might have seen me mention that I am currently very much on edge at the moment as some little child with far too much time on his hands has been making threats to hack my PC and grief me... To be entirely honest, his words don't bother me and it seems more like hot air and attention seeking rather than anything serious, but what bothers me is how it makes me feel at the thought of losing Rudh.
I don't know if you've ever experienced the thought of losing your avatar... I've met a few people that say they wouldn't care if the avatar was destroyed, but for me I know I'd be devastated. They say it's just virtual belongings that you cannot hold and can be replaced, but in my eyes, it's still my personal belongings. I've spent hours, days, weeks, months even years collecting everything, some of the pieces are just because I love them but others are personal and very important. No matter that they are virtual things, it would be just like being looted in RL, it would break my heart...
Yet it's not only the personal possessions... I know that the friends I've made would always remain with me, whether I was in world or not, it's more the fact that Rudh is a part of who I am. She has my feelings, emotions, and my voice even... She has been the reason that I have been able to create so many wonderful friendships and lasting memories... She's also been as escape from reality when things were too tough...
I know I'm not the only one to have ever felt this way, and I know I won't be the last one to feel this way either, but for me the thought of losing Rudh is horrible. I hope none of you are ever put at risk like this... Be careful what you are clicking or accepting from people, be careful who you share your details with, and if I disappear from in-world then rest assured I will fight tooth and nail until you see me again... For now, though this Living Dead Dolly ain't goin nowhere!! I hope!

Voidar is the New Black, Apparently?!

A few days ago I was reading through Flickr with my morning coffee, and I stumbled upon a random photo, something that caught my attention, something that was seeking SL faces... I read a little deeper and it appeared that Ashley Carter - creator of the Voidar SL series - wanted faces for an upcoming project... I couldn't help but send my name in never thinking that I could be asked to participate!
I had however, pulled on an outfit that I was very much in love with and even though I wasn't sure I would be doing anything with it, but after becoming a face for the Voidar project I wanted to be able to give you a little hint as to which face was mine!!!
The outfit was one that my sister Solde spotted and instantly thought she had to show me as it was just pure Rudh... I couldn't agree more! The dress is one from drbc - called Starla in a Ribcage Print! When I wore it with the loose braid, called Leah from CATWA, it seemed the perfect summer outfit, all it needed was some accessorising...  
Luckily, during the brand new and awesome Mix Event I managed to find the perfect bag - something I have a lot of in RL but very few in SL - a Goldfish Messenger Bag from Le Primitif to be exact. Then the perfect shoes seemed to jump at me out of my hoard too, the Valeria Platforms from Bens Boutique are SO adorable and so very fashionable right now! There was just something missing, something which later became my recognising feature in the Voidar Project! I'll let you work out what that is hehe...
Now for some more information... Check out the finishing result of Ashley Carter's Voidar is the New Black Video... Go on, Go here and take a look! I've been told it has something to do with Orange is the New Black but to be honest I think I'm one of a very small handful of people that can say they haven't seen it... I will say that I LOVE this video and the speed that it was put together astounds me... I can't wait to do another one, and I hope I'd be allowed to be in that too hehe...
Thank you for using my face!!!

I miss you guys...

HELLO SL I WAS HERE TODAY... Sometimes having a megaphone makes you feel strong, maybe that's just me but today was one of those days when everyone had gone to work in RL and I was left at home to fend for myself hehe... At least for a few hours... 
So I logged into SL, went shopping to grab myself things that I might have missed otherwise and sent a HUGE hello to the people that I am missing whilst I am in RL... It seems strange that even when you go on holiday the people you leave behind in SL are very much missed... 
So I send a HUGE shout out to everyone that I know and love in SL... The people I speak to every day, those I miss more than anything, and the people I work with in SL because without you it's not the same... 
The photo I am sharing today is one that I had made before I left for the UK, as all my photos are at the moment. It features a cute but smart outfit that had been a past Fi*Friday release from Bens Boutique, as well as the awesome megaphone I had to use hehe... 
By the way... In case you didn't realise, I miss you all!!!

Who wants to work when you can SHOP?!

A few days ago now I was digging around in my overly large hoard wondering what the heck I was going to wear. It got me thinking back to when I was still fairly new in SL. Back then I would change an outfit EVERYDAY without fail... I would spend hours doing it and then wear it for a few hours before changing it the next day and going through the ritual over and over again... Nowdays I am a little more lazy LOL, I tend to change every few days - it still takes me a while to change however - but it gives me more options as I keep shopping and things pile up ready to be worn hehe...
Sometimes though an outfit that I have waiting to be discovered will surprise even me!
This was one of those times! Still as it was coming together I had a strange idea in my head and once I was done dressing I guess I hit the nail on the head as my little brother Athrun nonchalently asked me "Why do you look like you're going to seduce the boss?!" LOL... I then spent a while searching for the perfect office type location, and will admit that it got a little boring when I couldn't find what I was looking for, so I gave up and went shopping! Checking out random places I've not been to before is always fun, I discovered the Fashiowl Poses store and well the street setting was just too cute not to be a high powered business woman on a well earned shopping break photo LOL...
So yes, I am kinda shocked myself to see Rudh in a suit! It's a look that normally I wouldn't even have thought about but when I saw it on sale at Fi*Friday for the whopping amount of 55L I just didn't want to kick myself later for not grabbing it when I had the chance. These Frankie Suits should now be available at the main HOLLYHOOD store, not sure about the low price though!
I teamed my suit with some simplish but dead sexy heels from Bens Boutique - called Nicky - and then gave the chic look a quirky "Rudhish" twist by adding a Timeless Bag from Zenith, and I liked the look, there was just one problem. I wanted to make it look a little more Rudh-like, a little fiercer perhaps... Thank goodness for [ abrasive ] and dimma! The former made this simple but somewhat kinky looking Loose Belt Choker - that I may need to go get the rest of the colours of hehe - and the latter created the Deep Corners Liner set... PERFECT!
Now all I need is a boss to seduce and I will be a happy girl... Anyone need a secretary? LOL!
