Stay Proud!

The month of June is almost at it's end, and with it we will soon see the end of Pride Month... This year, Pride Month has taken on a different slant - telling you to be proud not just of who you love but also to stand up and fight for those that are different especially in the Black Lives Matter protests... Yet it all boils down to the fact that everyone, no matter race, sexuality or all of those intricacies that make us different and special, should be equal... Love is Love, and the colour of your skin or the body that you're in shouldn't make you less or more important... 

I've heard people wonder why I'm so excited about all of the pride goodies that I've been shopping for like a demon possessed... We'll let me enlighten you... First off, they may be right I'm not LGBTQ myself - unless you could count a few dalliances whilst I was at university and the feeling that I love love and wouldn't care what shape or form the person came in - but I have a lot of friends and family that are, both in SL and RL... I'd consider myself an ally if push comes to shove... I'm there to support, to applaud and to be family for those whose family pushed them away for being different. Secondly though, and this is definitely a silly reason... IT'S RAINBOWS EVERYWHERE PEOPLE!!!! Who doesn't love rainbows?! I love them... Seeing them in the sky always brings a smile to my face, but I cannot get enough of them no matter what way they come... I love all things dark and macabre, but dammit how can anyone not love a rainbow!!! 

There's still time to check out all of the awesome Pride events, including the SL Pride at Home mainstore crawl - but whatever happens, no one should change you, stay proud of who you are, and stand up for what you believe in!!!

A Party for One

I seem to be better off on my own today... I am fighting, or at least feel like I'm fighting, with people that I really shouldn't be having petty issues with, and it's beginning to break me... My normally carefully constructed exterior of bubbly, light happiness is cracking and letting people see between the cracks and they don't seem to like it all that much... 

So I need to do something that will make me feel better... Something that will give me a boost of happiness... I'm going to throw myself a little pool party, to celebrate me! A little pool party of one!!! 

Some good music, lots of bright rainbow colours - thanks to some of the awesome Pride related goodies that I picked up at this year's SL Pride at Home event  - and a dip in my perfect little Social Distancing Pool - from NOMAD - washed down with some of Kora's fruity pink lemonade rum cocktails!!

It's a perfect time to test out my new Tropical Bikini from Celeste... They come in a collection of different floral colours and patterns, and are available now at Frou Frou...
