As I hinted last night in my Wine'O'Clock post, this weekend has been one of parties for me - since Thursday LOL - and today I am going to relax... Nothing to do but take things easy and maybe sleep a little more as it seems to have cooled down here a little.
As I may also have mentioned before we were partying for my MC Sister and awesome friend Solde, who turns old this weekend, we had 5 events for her birthday, and the last was the most awesome... Least I think so anyway... The last party we had a little trip to one of her favourite places... OZ!
HellBone built a special Oz themed ballroom complete with a tornado, munchkins and of course a yellow brick road, so that Solde could become her favourite movie character for just a little while...
As she walked towards Oz with her little HellBone Toto, she was joined by a fabulous Scarecrow, a glamorous Tin Man (Woman) and a Lion with a lot of RAWR, and we all skipped into Oz together... The ladies of the Gators MC!
These costumes are amazing... The best Oz character costumes that I have seen out there, and trust me I looked through a LOT before I found these. I wanted the boys to be the characters with Solde, but it just wasn't working... The costumes were simply not good enough... Then I found these! They are from Lamu Fashion and not only are they perfect - giving Oz that hint of glamour - they had all four characters and it looks like we belong together! Each outfit comes with everything you could possibly need, besides hair and skins of course, now I will admit that we each personalised things a little but for the price you pay they are great!
What is she wearing;

Saturday was fun... Lazy but fun...
I even had a chance to hang out with someone that I don´t get to see very often - Sussie - as we hopped around looking for randomly fun things that were going on. It was one of those good evenings, where we stayed up too late having fun, and now in the sunny light of the morning I am left feeling like I've been drinking, without actually having drunk anything LOL...
One swift cure for that...
The sound of feet on the board-walk, a scream and a splash says it all... The best way to get over that sluggish feeling is to shock yourself a little... I'd imagine that this might have the right effect!
In RL you'd never see me jumping into the sea like this, I don't really like swimming in the sea - no idea why just never been a fan of it - but Rudh is totally different, she's going to enjoy that cold feeling! Dressed in a Dana Outfit from CandyDoll - available this month at FaMESHed - she took the plunge, I just hope Sussie is around to rescue her on a surfboard!! LOL...
Pools are better, in my opinion... Perhaps because there are less animals in them?! Though OK the picture doesn't really back that up as someone let Hell and Mongo into our pool LOL...
What is she wearing;

Group Pose: Come Soon - Here comes the Sun
Right now I feel pretty yucky, I'm still not very well as I mentioned yesterday but I am being a lovely person and letting Hell have some time in the bed to himself as I kept him awake a lot last night. Whilst writing an email to my boss to let him know I'm not working again today, I decided to take a few minutes extra to share something with you...
Now normally - in RL - I am the kind of person that doesn't like being out in the sun, and would NEVER be caught wearing a bikini, but in SL that idea is one I totally chuck out the window hehe... Rudh is definitely more than willing to be a beach babe... In fact on Saturday she spent a good few hours being crazy on the beach with her MC sister - and very dear friend - Sussie!
Sussie is a California Surf Babe... She can and does frequently spend hours our surfing and generally looking hot on the beach, so when I saw these poses released from Come Soon, it had to be Sussie that I posed with!
I had asked her for some surfing lessons, we'd gotten changed into our bikinis - both from Blueberry by the way - and as we were about to head down to the water, she attacked me with her water pistols... That was it... It was a water gun fight - with the help of a pose from Come Soon that is available now at Tropical Summer.
We were being watched by one of those hunky lifeguards that you often find at the beach... Tanned, muscular and with hair that made him look like a hot Viking - yes it's Mongo by the way lol - he seemed to be enjoying the view! The pose he is using is one from Come Soon too - and yes I was a little naughty putting them together, but I hope that does not get me in any trouble! This pose is the Welcome Summer pose and prop...
I've been good, I've included copies of the original Come Soon Ads so that people can see what the poses really look like, but I couldn't help it, the lifeguard wanted to enjoy the hot girls getting wet in a gun fight LOL...
To be honest it looks like the perfect day at the beach...

When it comes to taking photos I am always more confident at taking personal shots of myself... I'm a snap happy photographer and pride myself on being a photographing ninja that can usally catch photos of the crazy things that go on around me, but when it comes to taking posed photos of other people, I tend to get more than a little nervous.
It's not that I don't like taking pictures of other people... I love the fact that I can play at being a photographer, pretend I know what I'm doing and try to make something pretty that fits what they are looking for. I also love the fact that it means I am not staring at myself LOL...
In the last few days, I've been snap happy, people have been asking me to take their pictures... I decided I'd share some of them with you!
Keira is the model-in-training of the Gators MC. She's following in the well educated footsteps of Solde, and seems to be doing such a good job of it she's well ahead of her class! Now, recently she bought me such an awesome present - the gift of my own photography studio - I had to use her as the test model. On the day we chose, she was in a melancholy mood and wanted something a little bit dark and sad!!! The photo above was the result of this session hehe...
The one below however, came about because of a purchase I'd made LOL...
Now I am not sure if I mentioned it, but we had a bit of an Auction, in which the Gators MC were going up for sale to raise money for the BACA in RL. One of the purchases that I made on that day was for the very lovely - but prone to call me "Hooker Lady" - CharlieBumBum! He didn't even know he was going up for sale, that was the organising of his wife, but I tortured him for days about his "date" with me... Luckily for Charlie I let him off the hook... I had the PERFECT poses from Image Essentials that seemed fit for Charlie's Cowboy sense of style!!! So his date was being used as a photography prop LOL...
My Sister Sussie, had been shown the photo I took of Keira in the photobooth, and she came to ask me if I would try to make a Profile picture of her... Now I was getting nervous again, because OK if I'm taking pictures of people as I did with Charlie - for my own personal use - then fine I can do what I want with them, but Sussie is a MODEL... She has been photographed by some VERY well known photographers and I nearly passed out while taking this I was nervous... I shook... But I LOVE what happened with the finished picture and so does she it seems!!
Chopper was another person that asked me too, what is it with people asking me for pictures lately it NEVER happens normally lol... He had randomly found the Gators MC one day when HellBone and Jimmy were in the midst of a Dinosaur Fight, but I am pleased to say that he kept hanging around and even wanted to be a part of the family... I took a collection of different pictures of Chopper but this one has to be my favourite. I love the crazy looking bike he is riding, I love the look of the photo in general but I have to say that Chopper is definitely the best looking thing in it LOL - I had to say that, he would be sad if I didn't LOL...
As you can see Chopper has REALLY gotten into the spirit of being a Gator... HellBone had tried to win me a Pixicat Wonderland Kitten from The Arcade this week whilst he was hunting for DRD items, and ended up with dresses. These dresses somehow - I think I might have dared them but I don't remember I was laughing too hard - ended up being worn by not only HellBone and Chopper, they lured little Panda Athrun to the dark side and made him dress up too!!! The the posing began, thanks to a pretty hippy girl pose I had from Image Essentials LOL... Our MC doesn't need to Haze the prospects, they are too busy hazing themselves LOL...
That's a little look at what has been keeping me busy, there is a lot more to come but I LOVED these enough that I wanted to show them off... I really hope you don't mind. OH and if you want anything you can see them using in these pictures please feel free to ask and I will find out where things come from for you!!!
