When you're having a bad day, there is nothing that will cheer you up more than a little sparkle... In my case that works anyway, I cannot really say it is the same for everyone.
One of the sparkles that makes me smile the most, however, is in fact looking though my SL inventory and pulling together a look that I LOVE...
This look is one of those, but I will fully admit that when I started to work on it, I found myself thinking what the heck am I doing... Isn't it great that the sparkle can come from something like that?
The reason for this entire look was possibly due to one of the most bonkers items that I have been sent to blog in a long while. It's an Arcade release, one of those events that people are always crazy for, and I feel pretty honoured that I was sent a blogger pack in advance of the event - although I am kinda late with blogging it because I had absolutely no freaking idea what I was going to do with it.
The RachelBreaker HELPmeHats are a crazy collection of interesting looking baseball caps, which for the record look awesome with that newer Magika hair release called Lessons... That is your lesson for today.
I wore the crazy hat, with a matchingly crazy dress... This was a past event release from Cubic Cherry Kre-ations, and I am not sure if it is still available, but it does fit perfectly with the HELPmeHats... Then the rest of the accessories were just things that I'd dug out of my hoard... A Name Tag from DirtyStories, a SilentSparrow Betta Fish for a friend and neck jewellery from ginchi and Luas...
A perfectly crazy look for a day when I'm bored at work and need a little inject of Rainbow Craziness...

Sometimes it's good to sit back, relax and take stock of things... Just watch the world go by and think about things that are going on around me. The drama has calmed down a little but at the same time there are newer things potentially rearing their heads and bugging me, so when I got the chance to just switch off and chillax I was a very happy Rudh.
The boys - and mum - were playing a crazy game of Biker Ball, and so it was the prefect opportunity for me to test out the lazy boy reclining style chairs from Consignment... Before I get into that, Biker Ball is a game thats a little like Football - the English kind, not the American kind - you use a motorbike to get a ball into a hole in the ground goal! OH and the bikes can blow up as you're doing it LOL...
On to the relaxing bit though, I wasn't going to play Biker Ball with the Gator Boys. They get very competitive, and they aren't even the worst ones... You should hear mum scream about it LOL...
I wanted to put my feet up and possibly if I could muster up the energy cheer them on, then I remembered that I had the perfect comfy chair to do just that in...
The Consignment Comfy Chairs - available at this month's FaMESHed line-up - come in three, somewhat manly colours - this being the blue version with black and brown colours too. They have so many comfy poses for singles and couples that these chairs do seem to make the perfect living room must have! I jumped into mine, luckily without spilling my large glass of wine from the vineyards of RachelBreaker and sat to watch the game!
While I play both cheerleader and referee, I ask you, fancy a game?

Well that's it, on Sunday night the drama storm cloud that I predicted finally hit the fan... Splattering a mountain load of drama all over some of the people that I am closest too. Just a matter of waiting now to see how much it will affect the rest of the family! Once again, my trust in someone I am supposedly close to is broken. Only this time I am able to hide behind three very strong alpha males - all of which are in protect Rudh mode, and I love them for that!
Though sometimes, I just want to run as far away as I can, as fast as I can, and not look back... I know that sounds wrong but I'm sure that I'm not the only one that ever feels this way.
It made me go through a semi-nervous breakdown this weekend, I reverted back to my childhood state... Playing in a playground, dressing like a kawaii kitty and running around like a crazy person was just the kind of medicine that the doctor ordered - I wish doctors could really say that by the way, you can see it now can't you "Go drink a bottle of Calpol (children's medicine in the UK) and go batshit crazy for an hour, you'll be fine!" LOL...
But in truth, that is how this outfit really made me feel... The mixture of cute accessories from yumyums, The Sugar Garden and a skirt from RachelBreaker, just made me a very happy bunny - or should that be kitty - indeed!
Let me start by discussing the things mentioned above... First The Sugar Garden - or tsg - as it's known. I've had the kitty party from tsg in my hoard for a long time now, so long I don't even remember which event I picked them up from. It's possible that they were allowed to gather dust due to the lavendar colour, which I never normally wear, but they just seemed like such a perfect fit with this look, I couldn't leave them waiting any longer.
They just seemed to fit so well with one of the two items that I am wearing from yumyums. Miss Iokko's store - yumyums that is - is currently offering up two adorable sets of items in a gacha machine at OMGacha. The yumyums items can be found at the top and bottom of me, so let's go from head to toe shall we... The Cute as a Button Headbands, are available in multiple colours, with multiple options for strings and buttons and thus creating about a gajillion different combinations of colours. It took me AGES to work out what I wanted look wise from them! They are well worth having a little gamble on! The other OMGacha item from yumyums are these adorable little CutiePie shoesies! They like the button headbands come in a myriad of different colours and are available in both flat flats and platform flats, you need the SLINK feet to wear them, but they are SO CUTE how can you pass these babies by?!
The last thing that is something I WOULD NEVER NORMALLY WEAR but loved the moment that I put it on is this Wintertutu from RachelBreaker. You can find the skirt, in a collection of different colours and combinations at The Seasons Story, which is currently celebrating their winter theme! I still cannot quite believe that I chose a pink coloured one?! How the heck did that happen?! I guess that my inner child has a fair amount of love for pink, I'd better not let her out too often LOL...

I'M BACKKKKKK... Did ya miss me??? I had an amazing Christmas Holiday with my family at home in the UK, it would have been perfect if I hadn't gotten sick on Boxing Day - the name we Brits use for Second Christmas Day! - which meant that I had to miss the annual family get together!!
Still now that I am back, after a very cold trek home through snow! I have to defrost my frost bitten toesies and fingers, and get back into the blogging thing hehe...
I have so much to share with you, I cannot quite believe that I almost missed my favourite event of the month! Horror Haute started just as I was going home, I thought NOOOOOOOOO but I will tell you, in a very excitable way, that Horror Haute December will carry on until January 4th!!!
This gives the little Zombie Girl Me - yes the theme of the month for Horror Haute is Zombie Apocalyptic Christmas! - a chance to actually defrost her fingers and toes and get ready for the few days of blogging like a demon hehe...
The little Zombie Girl trekked miles to get somewhere warm so that she could finally defrost her toes... That's what she gets I suppose for wearing Snowshoes - from ImmateriA - in the snow without socks or boots in them?! Though I guess the little dress didn't help much to protect her from the cold either! Then again, the gorgeous Latika Dress from Blue Blood - which you can pick up at Horror Haute along with the snow shoes - was just too cute not to play around in. It comes in light and dark versions, but for some reason - which astounds me - I was drawn to the pretty light designs, that is if you can ignore the blood of course!
I guess I should also show off the camp that she wandered into, it's a set made perfectly to shelter in during the Zombie Apocalyptic Christmas, from La Maison Des Corbeaux. The set includes a tent, a sleeping bag and a fire, so you should stay warm and dry, just don't forget something to kill the zombies with or you won't be needing the camp for very long hehe...
All of those lovely things are Horror Haute Items, but there are a couple that need an honourable mention which have nothing to do with my favourite event! The Antlers are a group gift from Death Row Designs and the Glowy Xmas Tree is a freebie now at RACHELBREAKER... Don't miss these things, they will be gone very soon!
