Drowning in the Rain

Some days, if you are anything like me, you may wake up with a feeling of impending doom... Normally I try to ignore it, but today started out with someone walking away and was followed by a few hours surrounded by idiots. That sounds mean, but the people who know will agree, this week has definitely been idiot week... Yet why does it leave me feeling like I'm alone, feeling lost and maybe more than a touch melancholy? I cannot explain it, but today I feel totally unhappy with no real reason as to why! 
Maybe though it is a reason why today's picture is a little less happy and a lot more lost and melancholy feeling!

Rudh went to wave goodbye to some of her feelings at the beach today, and ended up being caught in bad weather, at the Gale Storm Retreat. The sun was shining, dropping to the horizon, and at the same time the sky opened and it started to pour, and even though she looked there was no rainbow in sight. 
Her hair was soaked - thanks to a cute wet-look style from Argrace - but her body remained dry thanks to her new Dead Dollz RainyDay Dress - available until April 30th at The Liason Collaborative. Shame that the same cannot be said for her mascara - thanks to Arise's Mascara Tears!
It seems desolate and bleak, but I'm hoping someone out there will bring me a towel and perhaps if I'm a really good girl some hot chocolate? I could use a good cuddle today, and that may be the best that I get!

Hair: ARGRACE - CHIZURU in Reds

Spring Goddess

I'm still playing dress up and you can't stop me, nernerninerner LOL... 
There's me trying to be grown up about things and I let my inner child take over right?! Still, I cannot get enough of playing dress up, it's one of my favourite things about the SL world in which you can be whatever and whoever you want to be!
Today I have chosen to be a goddess, I'm going to let my inner beauty out a bit, while I drag the somewhat weird and kinky along too... It's going to be magic!

At the Whole Wheat location is an area of Serenity... A beautiful space that seems perfect for a magical goddess like myself LOL... 
Skantily clad in an ivory drape dress from Asteria - which hangs open just enough to teasingly show her Spring Nipple Piercings - from Ama. Her purple hair and eyebrows have dyed to a pretty shade of mauve, with her eyebrows even being shaved to represents the "Tigre" that hides inside this goddess - eyebrows which you can get from Nightmare at Suicide Dollz by the way! 
It is however, her gorgeous Spring Witch Halo that defines her goddess status - part of the Spring Witch Set from Nightmare at Ostara's Altar - and her affinity with animals that shows her true goddess form. This adorable little Witchy Rabbit - from PSYCHO.Byts at the Ostara Event - wouldn'y stop following her as she wandered through the serenity garden... 
It looks like she gained a little friend today, someone to enjoy the serenity!

Hair: Magika - Summer in 02

Anyone want a new house pet?

WOOOHOOOOOO I love Thursdays!!! My favourite day of the week I think, especially now that my work schedule has changed - yes I do have to work but I don't need to go to the office - in essence it's like my weekend starts NOW! 
So I'm in a good mood today, something fun and silly is needed - although it's not very PG I have to say LOL... I've been feeling so down in the dumps lately what with RL and things going on in my SL too, that I felt somewhat lost and abandoned, but I've had time to re-evaluate things and now it's time to make a few changes... 
Anyone want a new pet? It's house trained!!

This poor abandoned little pet is looking for a new master, she was found dumped in a cardboard box outside an abandoned cottage... Aside from the label on the front, the only other markings on the box are the makers name - Violetility at ROMP - but it looks like she comes complete with her own leash, bowl and other accessories! Dressed in some very pretty Paramour Lingerie, by Dead Dollz, this kitten has class and a bell all of her own - from PSYCHO.Byts, she's sleek, well groomed and would make a wonderful house pet for the most kinky of home owners! 
So if you're a master and want a free - but expensive to care for - pet, then call the Animal Shelter at ROMP... 
Just a word to the wise though, this kitten has claws and a brattish attitude, and she's not afraid to use them LOL... Rumour has it that she's part Gator! 

What is she wearing;
Hair: #Foxy - Cattitude Hair in Reds (Available until January 28th at Hentai Fair) 
Skin: Glam Affair - Seya in Europa 2 
Collar: PSYCHO.Byts - Bell Choker in Vive 
Lingerie: Dead Dollz - Paramour Lingerie Set in Black (Available until January 30th at The Liason Collaborative) 
Pose & Prop: Violetility - Pet Box (Available until January 30th at ROMP) 

A little quiet time with the Girls...

OK so quiet time around the Gators isn't really the right term here... More like it was a giggle fest, shared with only poor Gary as a little testosterone - though he was too chicken to jump into the photo with all of us - it was nice to be able to have just a few of my sisters to share in this moment with, AND use as props in the photos I wanted to take featuring some of the brand new releases from Consignment and Floorplan! 
It's hard for me taking pictures of furniture, I don't feel that it is one of my strengths... Some people take AMAZING furniture only photos but I have never been able to do that! So when these gorgeous girls were standing around doing nothing I thought to myself "AH HA" lol... That's love isn't it, using them for my own needs LOL... 

So let's discuss the furniture, seeing as it - a side from the fact that I did want to take a picture with some of my sisters, this isn't all of them by the way, Hell's Harem is a little bigger LOL - the reason I set this shot up! 
Consignment and Floorplan have done it again! They always seem to make gorgeous furnishings that could be used in any home style environment... Unfortunately for you these items will not be found as a job lot but all of the pieces used can be picked up from one of two locations... 
So here's the list, if you fancy yourself a chair like the blue one, the rug or the pretty pink rose in a vase, you will need to head to The Liason Collaborative. Here the chairs are available in 5 or 6 different colours, as PG or Adult versions and with a myriad of different décor also available that would look GREAT with them! If the Red Beanbag Sofa is more to your taste - although they look great together if you ask me - it is available in the same different colours, as PG or Adult versions, at Collabor88 this month. At Collabor88 you will also find the red rose, the jar containing the stick lights AND the radiator. These Radiators do not come with poses in them, I cheated a little and sat my sister Chelsea on the cool radiator using a pose that is no longer available, but a word of warning... Sitting on a radiator that is on, in a skirt that short, could hurt LOL... 
Now I hope you won't kill me for not having a list of what all of my sisters are wearing, but if you see something specific on one of them, that you have to have, please let me know and I will find out where it comes from... My outfit on the other hand, well that's easy to tell hehe...  

I was channelling another sister Solde this week, she's always seen with trademark white hair, but it looked so cute with my outfit that I hope she won't kill me for copying her style. The reason for this outfit came about due to the awesome shirt that I bought on Sunday. It was Lazy Sunday, I was being very lazy and I spotted these cute Lolita Dresses that were the release from Razor and I HAD to have them. Yes the HUD has the design in different colours, but I LOVED this combination and so pink and green it was LOL... I will admit that I tried it on without a skirt underneath, normally I would have gone without one, but for some reason I was feeling a little self concious, so I admit I made this dress just a little longer by adding a plain black teeny skirt underneath!
Lastly, and as always, Accessories!!! The Necklace and Bracelet are a release from Goth1c0 for this months line up of The Witching Hour, which closes today! Available as individual parts - Bracelets and Necklaces are separates - this red coloured version is a RARE one, but all of the colours look this good so it was very hard to choose which to wear hehe... 
Maybe next time I will try to get a photo with all of my sisters, that make up HellBone's Harem... For now this is what you get, aren't we all pretty LOL...

Carrot Tops are Green...

In SL, as in RL, I am a redhead. I've been through multiple colour changes and will pull on wigs of any colour to fit an dressing up look that I am playing with... Though I do always come back to my red locks. When I was younger, I used to be teased in RL for being a redhead... It still happens today, I'm sure some people will know of the gingers are like vampires speech that comes from South Park, but more often than not I laugh at the people who say mean things, and try to better them with a snappy comeback... One of my favourites for when people call me a "Carrot Top" is that "Nuh Uh, Carrot tops are Green!" LOL... Ramble of the day that!

I guess to go with my ramble, I should put in a photo somewhere, and I guess we will call it Rudh's look of the day - even though I don't ever tend to do posts like that LOL... In fact it's been a look of about a week, as everytime I changed out of a dressing up look I put this back on LOL...
So in the setting that surrounds the store, Meshopotamia, I will stand in the rain and tell you all about my outfit hehe...
The basic clothing of my outfit was fairly simple, an old but much loved shirt - called Teagan - from R3volt, and my new favourite pair of jeans from GizzA, the Virginia Jeans in a Retro tone if you're interested by the way. I know that you cannot really see a lot of my clothing, but it was more something that would look cute with my new hair, rather than finding hair to match an outfit this time. The hair in question is one that was released for The Liason Collaborative, though I am not sure if it is still available there or not... You may have to go to the mainstore to find it... I fell in love with this Damselfly hair pretty much instantly, and loved the soft girlie feeling to it, even though it was a store I don't really know much about if I'm being honest!
I accessorised the hair with some gorgeous blossoms from *LODE* in a pretty peach colour, and then remembered the gorgeous jewellery set that was put out by KOSH for the past Sunday's Lazy Sunday. I KNOW it's not Sunday anymore, but I am hoping that you will still go check the jewellery out, the necklaces - which you can't see here clearly - and the rings - which you can! - are available in 5 different designs... The rose design being used here to add just a little more flower power to the outfit hehe...
Lastly, my little friend, and the entire reason that I rambled on about carrots... The Veggie Pals were released from Birdy a while ago now, as part of a collection for The Chapter Four. I love the full set of veggies, but I am willing to admit I had forgotten I got them... NOT ANYMORE! It's veggie time!

OOOH Some SL DisneyBounding...

Time for some more dressing up, I can never have enough dressing up and everyone gets to benefit by looking at me, pointing and laughing.... This time I went Disneyfied again... Some might say it was another SL DisneyBounding look, and let's go with that lol...
I had a reason to dress up this time though. For the MC family we try to throw parties whenever someone is celebrating a Birthday. The weekend just gone, we did just that... On Friday, we threw a secret surprise Birthday Party for my sister - one of my besties  - Kara!
Kara LOVES all things Disney - she's a little like me in that LOL - but for months, she has been wandering around the sim singing songs from the Disney movie "Frozen"... I found it easy to work out what the theme of this party would be, it was easy to decorate, and easy to plan...
Less easy though to find a DisneyBounding look for me!

I don't think that I did too badly though right?! Can you tell which character I went with at least? LOL, I am Belle from Beauty and the Beast - a Rudhish version but that's what DisneyBounding was all about, making a character look your own.

I knew what I would be as soon as I saw this adorable dress from Noodles, which you can pick up at the Geeks 'N' Nerds Fair. The dress is available in a 5 different Star Wars Designs, and 3 other different Disney Princesses, but I always loved Beauty and the Beast... Talking household objects, what's not to love about it hehe...

It was only after I had found the dress that I remembered a specific hair from a past Arcade line-up from the store Olive... I tried to find it in a few yardsales, but was at a loss, I couldn't find it anywhere until I noticed my "supergachayardsaleitemfinder" friend, who can and as she proved does find anything you want!

To finish my look, I wanted a necklace that was a subtle hint to the movie, and after about an hour of searching through what seemed like a gajillion necklaces, I remembered this adorable Chained Rose Collar I had from the [Forge]... PERFECTION!

Oh and for the library, if you're able to go to Adult locations, check out Shhh!! "After Dark"... It seems like such a naughty and decadent place...

To get Kara to the party though, I had to run with a little bit of a lie hehe... I told her I was buying her an outfit to look like Elsa - which I did - and that the soul purpose of this outfit was for a photoshoot! I bought her Catwa Hair, a Dirty Princess dress and even poses from Exposeur so that she would feel like it was a real photo shoot... No harm in sharing one of the photos here is there? LOL... I think she sensed the party was coming but she seemed to enjoy herself, and at the same time I got to create not just one but two awesome SL DisneyBounding looks.
