There are dark forces blowing through SL at the moment, the kind of forces that persuade people to do the craziest of things. You never know what you will be dragged into doing, and for me personally the crazy force swept through my wardrobe warehouse and persuaded me to choose a colour combination that is SO against my usual choices that I must have been possessed... It wasn't even something that I was pushed into sharing by Aggie - I CHOSE to wear Pink on my own lol... I hope Aggie is proud of me LOL!!!
Though now I am going to cause even more shock by saying that this photo is actually one of my favourites of late... I've taken so many pictures recently - I've even been photographing a lot of the people that I am surrounded by on a daily basis, so it's not just been a case of vanity - but this picture is one of the ones I am beyond happy with!!
As you can see, the possession has a very tight grip on me... I am actually allowing the dark turquoise possession smoke to drift from my lips, while that look of control has fallen over my eyes... I've submitted to whatever it was that was seeking to take hold, and as I wander around Pandora Box of Dreams, it is so hard to avoid the Sakura dream colours... Pandora's Box took control of me, Pink was the colour of the day... It washed over me like a rainbow girl effect and I was swathed in it from head to toe...
The look started because I was playing around in a new, but yet not brand new release from yumyums. The dress is the release in question, created by Iokko Molko for the just closed Creepy Kawaii Fair - I'm sorry I am so late in playing around with this dress, but you can get your hands on it now from the mainstore! These dresses are available in three girlie pastel shades - pink, mint or lavender, none of which are my colours LOL - but as the fair they were created for suggests there is definitely a little creep factor to each one!
I accessorised it with a mint coloured wig from Moon called Salt, a pastel coloured piercing from [NI.JU] called Carnival, and a "Late for a Date" yumyums purse that is available now as part of the One Word Fairy Tales event line-up. Luckily I also remembered to stop and grab a little friend for comfort when I awake from my possession... I think I might need it, and this adorable Paper Rabbit Polkie Unicorn is the perfect friend for that...
The possession is something I blame on the SongBird that was flying through my garden this morning... Something about a Twisted Hunt was being whispered in the breeze, and the SongBird dropped a necklace that seemed to draw me to it in the grass... Thinking back on it now, the white plastic Planchette Necklace may not have been the smartest thing to put around my neck. Looking back now and seeing how my eyes changed and the Ecto Possession smoke poured from between my lips, the Twisted Hunt worked it's merry dance... I warn you dear readers, the Twisted Hunt is tricky, beware the pretties that it holds... Beware that enchanting planchette necklace, and always remember to pick up a friend before you wander alone whilst possessed!
Just a little close-up to give you a better look-see at the Planchette Necklace, Possessed Eyes and also my Carnival Piercing... These things look pretty but beware, you never know where you will end up!!!

I saw them and had to have them, then I saw the others and had to have those too... Never did I think I'd wear them together but when I was playing around with looks for them, they just seemed to work... Then as if by magic the rest of my accessories - and in fact entire look - just seemed to come together with a magical swoosh.
I love it when things like that happen, I don't know about you, but I can spend HOURS and HOURS looking through the warehouse that is my SL wardrobe wondering what to wear on any day. I've gotten lazy in my SL old age and, unlike when I was younger, I now save changing so it is less than a daily occurrence...
Though sometimes I get inspired when I buy things, I need to create something a little different, and that is just what happened here.. My love of playing Dress-Up took over, this was the result...
Somewhat Demonic I felt, but then at the same time, maybe more like a sprite than a demon...
The whole look started with two very different pairs of horns... The first set I bought was the Horror's Dream set from The Horror - and available now at One Word - and I knew from the moment that I saw these posted on Flickr that I HAD to have them... Call it love at first sight LOL... The set includes a HUD for easy colouring of eyes and horns, but what I love about it most is the colours... The blue for example - as seen here - is almost peacock feather like with its barely there flicks of green and purple... The second set are all about opulence... They can be found at the current round of UBER - with a theme this month of luxuriousness - from the store [CerberusXing]. These were another love the moment I saw them, I knew I couldn't leave the event without a pair LOL... Best part of these gorgeous horns is that they can be worn with less chains and without the septum piercing, so they are fairly versatile!
Once I had the horns in place, everything else was just so much fun to put together... I KNEW I couldn't look human with two sets of horns like this, so I just delved deep into the wardrobe and in the skins folder I found one of my favourite sets... The [Gauze] Amethysts sets were available at a long since past skin fair, but the jewelled tone complete with it's full body layer scale tattoo just seemed perfect for this look. The look seemed to be even more complete with the addition of some Mitosis Eyes from ellabella and a January bun that was a past group freebie from Truth, but there was still something missing, something that it lacked... Then I found the gorgeous Candy Crunchers Spider Crown, lord alone knows how long it has sat waiting to be discovered in my hoard, but isn't it pretty?! But yet, even with that, there was STILL something missing... "Make-Up perhaps?" I found myself thinking... Low and behold, as soon as I tried this glitter effect - Spangle Me - eyeshadow from The Stringer Mausoleum, that was it... It was perfect...
The photo I shot turned out even better than I had expected it too... This is definitely one of my favourite pictures of the year so far, but don't take my word for it, what do you think?
