Believe in Magic, and slip on a Shoe!

We all have the power to make different choices in life... Nothing is ever simple as it seems in the Disney Movies! 
For me I've always been someone who simply cannot take too many risks as I have a massive tendency to over-think everything. I can roll an idea around and around in my head, looking at it from every angle and more often than not, focusing on the negatives. 
I wish life was so simple as the fairytales... Sure sometimes things were tough but at the end it was all sparkles and sunshine. It seems in RL that when you start to rise, you always get knocked back down again at some stage. 
Wouldn't it be nice if life was so simple as Cinderella makes it out to be... When life is tough just believe in magic and slip on a shoe?!

Rudh tried it... Although slipping into a pair of gorgeous sparkly heels - like these Glitterati Heels from Reign - makes her feel good, there's no magical transformation, she's still Rudh that over-thinks and doesn't have a handsome prince... OK I still have HellBone and he's not bad on the eyes lol, but he's not really a Viking is he?! LOL... 
She's sitting in her chicken coop - complete with her new friendly Chicken Companion from Jian - in a regal JACKALOPE chair trying on shoes, dreaming that a sexy Viking will come and whisk her off her feet. Thinking about it now though, maybe if she's being kidnapped by a Viking she's better off in her dungarees and DMs. Might get a little muddy in Viking territory!
Still a girl can't help but wonder, when life is tough just believe in magic and slip on a shoe?!

Spice up your Live Nudes Bar

Woot, Monday Morning... I've had a very busy weekend - great but busy - and now I feel like I am ready to go back to bed after I've only just gotten out of it. I'm suffering something that is akin to a hangover but it's more like a gig weariness as this weekend HellBone and I went to see Avenged Sevenfold with Disturbed and then Anthrax... Maybe I'm getting too old for this?! LOL... 
Maybe that's why Geri left the Spice Girls?! 
Sorry my mind is wandering in all kinds of weird directions this morning, but I've been playing around with some of my new stuff from Rewind, and well... There's this dress... and it got me to thinking, what would Geri have done after leaving the Spice Girls?! 

Perhaps a show career of a different kind? Washed up and in a different kind of live performance?! Maybe at a place like The Rabbit Hole - an underground Strip Club?! 
I'm sure if that was to ever have happened, she'd have been able to make a fortune by dressing in her Ginger Spice outfit, the one that was so popular back in the 90's, was worn at the Brits and was in fact made using a tea towel! It's become so popular that for a 90's themed event, a well-known and loved designer such as Addams has designed, named and even included the Union Jack print version in their latest release for the event. 
The fall of Ginger Spice sees her taking a job in a Live Nudes Bar... What a way to Spice Up your Life?!

Skin: Glam Affair - Seya in Europa 2

A little 1920's Glamour

I know I promised people around me that I wouldn't think about work whilst I was away, but for me blogging isn't really work, it's more of a means of release if I'm being totally honest! Hence, why I make time for it even though I am technically on holiday!

Today I want to share something very pretty, rather romantic atmospherically and something that feels a little bit magical - in the same way that having some time to relax at home is feeling, I guess?!

This time I'm taking a trip back in time, as I've been thinking about the Retro Rewind event that has been taking place in SL and that closes on the 12th, and I slip back in time to the roaring 20's. A time of glamour and depression all rolled into one decade, a time when Art Deco was the height of fashion...

I chose an amazing dress from the event to share with you, something so pretty but something that I'd never normally choose too. It gave me the chance to slip into a fantasy character that would have felt right at home in a 1920's gangster family. She oozes glamour and elegance. The dress is the Evening Dress from Sakide - which you can pick up at the Retro Rewind until October 15th - and I accessorized it with a cute Crochet Choker from (Yummy) and a wig that Wasabi Pills made a long time ago which is perfect for the era.

A glamorous look needs a glamorous location to be seen in. The location I chose was perfect, though nothing of the mobster feel really, but the glitz I was looking for could be found at The Outer Garden!

Still for now I have done with the glamour I think, it's time to slip into my PJs and curl up warm and cosy...
