There has been so much dragging me down recently that I think it's time for me to put on a brave face and start acting like I'm OK again... It's been one thing after another and if I don't change my ways I'm going to become depressed and will never feel totally happy again, and that's not something I want to face - not that I mean to annoy anyone by saying that, I don't mean anything bad to true Depression sufferers...
So today I'm going to try something a little lively and fun to pick myself up and shake myself off... Wonder if it will work... Rudh, it's time to get your dancing shoes on...
When I hinted at going dancing, Rudh took it to a new level prepping for her very own champagne cocktail induced Burlesque show...
It started with an awesome - as per usual - pose props and set from COME SOON Poses, that was released within the last ever BishBox in August... YES I know it's been a while and I'm late getting it out there but please forgive me...
It didn't really help that Rudh had recently fallen in love with the super fun Ashley Mini Dress from JF Design - it's just such a cute twist on the traditional vintage flapper style that it cries out to be worn in a burlesque style show!! Especially when paired with the Yoshee Ribbon Boots - from KC Couture - that my MC Sister Solde bought me not too long ago.
Throwing her hair back and shaking it as she's dancing she looks like she's really enjoying herself, I just hope the feeling rubs off on the RL me...
What is she wearing;
Hair: ARGRACE - KOHAKU
Skin: Glam Affair - Seya in Europa 2
Dress: JF Design - Ashley Mini Dress in Blue (Available until September 15th at Shiny Shabby)
Shoes: KC Couture - Yoshee Ribbon Boots
Pose & Props: COME SOON - Pin Up Glass Set (Available for August BishBox)
That bad girl in me that was visiting yesterday is refusing to go away at the moment, and she wanted to be shared just a little more LOL...
Going to take the opportunity to use some of other awesome goodies that I've had stashed away for a rainy day to give the bad girl a photo she will be happy with, as they are some of her favourite nicknames.
I'm also doing something a little daring, yes I'm wearing pink LOL... What the heck is going on?!
The signs used in the picture are some from Krescendo, in the Sinful Signs Gacha. Krescendo is making all different kinds of these neon signs at the moment and I have a lot of rude slogans, some of which are too rude to even think about sharing here.
Basically though, this one is for Mas... I told you I could wear pink...
What is she wearing;
Hair: Doe - Sue (Past Bish Box Release)
Skin: Glam Affair - Seya in Europa 2

Taking a few minutes away from the monsters, because well that is getting just a little too scary LOL, I opened a box sent from one of the stores I blog for to find that they had made some very biker chick "Rebel" Poses for this month's BishBox, and well you know me being in an MC I couldn't resist taking the time to pose in this set!
The pose is one from Come Soon, and as I said before it's been released in this month's BishBox, The pose prop includes multiple poses and is perfect for the rebellious amongst us. While Rudh's finally stopped to smoke a cigarette - dressed in her usual flawless biker chick style - I've decided to let you know about something that may be of interest to the bikers amongst you...
You may or may not know this but Rudh is the Secretary of the Gators MC... Well, we're recruiting! I mean, looking for people that may be interested in joining an MC. It doesn't matter about if you've never ridden a motorbike in Second Life before - we can help you with that - but if you're looking for something new and fun and interesting to do, with a bunch of people that love hanging out and being silly, then maybe you should come check us out?!
If you want to know something about the MC you can either comment here, contact me - Rudhmellowen Laguna - in world or drop by the Gators MC. You never know, you may find it something you love doing!
What is she wearing;
Hair: Truth - Deja
Skin: Glam Affair - Seya in Europa 2
Cigarette: [Nikotin] - Classic Cigarette
Dress: TABOU - Jennah Dress in Black (Available until July 15th at Shiny Shabby)
Garter: [Since1975] - Garter's Gacha Item in SilverGun RARE

Pose: COME SOON - Rebel Set Pose 2 (Available for June BishBox)
I really, really need a holiday... I want some time away to just close my eyes and rest, and YES OK so I just went away for a few days, but it's been so busy that now I need a chance to just put my feet up LOL. Oh well, I guess I will have to make my way to the UK soon for some relaxation time!
Until then I'm lucky enough to be able to put Rudh on any beach and feel like I'm somewhere exotic thanks to Second Life.
In fact that is exactly what I am going to do lol, just get Rudh all beachified, and go get some relaxing done!!!
One of my favourite beach locations in Second Life is a place called Baja Sands - a location created by the awesome Lauren Bentham - it's peaceful and fun all rolled into one, and comes complete with the usual Bentham flair for design.
She's really having a beach day - the sun and the salt water have faded the dye in her hair making it pink and she's wearing a dress that is both revealing and concealing all at the same time. Tassels are so cute on a beach dress I think, and OK maybe this new Nightmare release - called Midiv which is available at the mainstore - is not meant for the beach but it seems perfect!!!
The dress is also perfect for revealing a new tattoo that Rudh got herself inked with from Vestigium. The Vinayaka Tattoo is somewhat tribal, somewhat ethnic and a dash native Indian, but it's a pretty pattern that covers the chest and upper arms and, even if I do say so myself it's a great beach summer accessory hehe...
Now if only I could find someone to get me a fruity drink in a coconut?!
What is she wearing;
Hair: Wasabi Pills - Ariel in Crystal Pink
Skin: Glam Affair - Seya in Europa 2
Collar: Kibitz - Elsa Collar
Tattoo: Vestigium - Vinayaka
Dress: Nightmare - MidÃv Dress
Bracelets: Kibitz - Grunge Accessories in Jelly Bangles (Past Bishbox Release)
Pose: Image Essentials - Kai in Demen 3
I'm sure by now that you will have heard of the new craze for 'Loot Boxes' in SL... It's swept through the SL fashion world with almost as much gusto as the Gacha craze, but unlike Gacha I'm not so keen on this concept. With Gacha, yes it's a game of chance but at least you know what you are paying for - even if you may not want the particular item that you get, you could at least give it to someone as a gift - but the 'Loot Box' items are unknowns that you pay for in advance. Now don't get me wrong, I do like surprises, and can understand that 10 different exclusives from a great collection of designers is worth the money - at least some may say so - but personally I prefer to know what I'm spending my few pennies on. I always try on demos, and am careful with what I do and do not buy...
HOWEVER, this month, my sister Solde - who LOVES the loot boxes and subscribes to a fair few of them - decided to treat me to a BishBox, and this month at least I was excited with everything in it!!!
The theme of this month's BishBox was grunge and I LOVE to dress in that way, it seems to be my common look lol. I had totally forgotten about it until it appeared in my inventory at which point I got overly excited!
The look - I guess it's another look-of-the-day - is one created from the BishBox items...
Posed using a pose within the Come Soon "Grunge Queen" set - not not using their prop this time just the pose - the only thing that she's wearing which is NOT BishBox is her skirt, which comes from Blueberry! The top is a set from Caboodle, and the boots are from Pure Poison, with jewellery from Kibitz and Yummy and a wig from Doe, all of which are available in this month's BishBox. For more information, please check the BishBox Website or visit one of the participating stores mentioned... Maybe it's time to release your inner Bish too?!

It's been a while since I've done anything somewhat strange - I KNOW that most of my pictures tend to have a hint of the crazies, but I mean more than usual - and I wanted to spend some time playing dress up and making a fantastical creature since it's something that always makes me smile and feel better about myself.
Today I was able to get my hands on something that shouldn't really have been so kookie and abnormal, but somehow ended up doing exactly that. What started with a sexy looking bodysuit rapidly became a crazy character in my mind, and well... as per usual, the rest is Rudhish History!
So let's start at the beginning, this whole outfit started out because I was able to get my hands on this soon to be released - at the upcoming Dark Style Fair, which by the way I will no doubt be talking about at a later stage when the event opens on May 1st - bodysuit called Android 18 from Nightmare! These bodysuits will be available in three different options - TriBlack, seen here, TriWhite and Plain - but you have to wait just a little longer as they will not be available until May 1st. Also available from Nightmare at the event will be a set of Android 18 tattoos - not shown, but still cool to see - which includes a chest piece that sits over the heart and has various images for it's centre. I'll attach copies of the original ads below to give you a better idea of what you get - as I'm so awesomely helpful sometimes!
Yet one thing lead to another with this look... First the Android body suit, and the positioning of the chest piece because something robotic - or perhaps Frankenstein's Bride ish?! This then lead on to the though of her having had her heart removed since having the chest piece say "Error" was an option, so I needed a wound and well... One Surgery became a need for more beauty touch ups! I cannot explain the need for just one eye though... I guess that was down to the whole monsterish nature, and the fact that the perfect place for all of these operations just happened to be Dr.Frankenstein's lab - a WHOLE WHEAT?!
Weird I KNOW lol, but just let my mind roll with it, and I hope that it brings a smile to your face in one way or another... If this doesn't work, then wait until May 1st, because I'm sure that the back of this very sexy bodysuit will DEFINITELY be a cause for a smile!!

Hair: TRUTH - Kyoko in Reds
Mask: Schadenfreude - Cyclops Mask

Many of you who know me will know - or should at least - know by now that I am a little weird when it comes to dressing... I wear what tickles my fancy, and OK a lot of the time that is what I so lovingly refer to as grunge slutwear, there will always be countless times I will dress up in something totally different and throw people that try to guess my style off...
Boho has never really been my thing though, I LOVE hippy chic, but I've never really been one for the Boho style. My big sister Solde on the other hand is gaga for boho! It's a style that she really enjoys, and she was so happy to see that the March BishBox was all gogo for boho!
Come Soon had a Boho Pose Set in the Bish Box, for some lovely poses with your girlie friends, so when it came to taking the photo there was only one person that I needed to ask!!!
This has to be the BIGGEST pose prop from Come Soon ever! It's a gorgeous hippy style farmy location, complete with lots of little nooks and crannies that are so pretty, and four awesome poses. Solde and I are using pose number 2 or the Indie is Life pose, which was a release for this month's BishBox.
Now of course, when there is a theme, I have to play dress up. Solde had the Boho theme wrapped up naturally, I was a bit more hippy and a bit less boho, but it's kinda the same thing really, right?
Still the way I figure, it's two pretty girls with flowers in their hair, it seems to be fun no matter what you wanna call it!
