Sparkles of the Sun

 Yesterday I played on the beach in the sun, today I decided to let the sun goddess that was hiding inside truly come out to play, and she's not the sunbathing kind of sun goddess either... Today the sun is literally my persona... Don't get me all hot and bothered now, you don't want to see how fire can burn, instead let her sparkle and warm you gently... 

I love the way that she sparkles in the darkness... Her twinkling most likely caused by the stars and planets caught up in her solar aura - yes as you can tell I LOVE combining aura sparkles, and the ones from LuluB and Cole's Corner go together SO WELL - radiating warmth and happiness like a gentle summer hug! Her outfit though offers a subtle reminder not to make her mad... It's WHITE HOT!!! Such a gorgeous dress for a sun goddess is the Mei Set from Psycho Barbie... 
The Sun is never alone however, and on her journey through the darkness of space she takes the moon and stars with her... Small in comparison to her epic scale, she wears them as the most delicate, yet regal, of gems... On a Celestial Headpiece - available for Evolve - and on a Devotion Choker, from Six Feet Under. I've added a close-up to show off these pieces a little more, but they are so lovely... You won't want to miss them...

Finding Beachy Treasures

On a day off, that's warm like this it's LOVELY to spend a day at the beach... In RL I'm NOT a fan of swimming in the sea though, I hate not knowing what's swimming in the water around me LOL, but in SL it's a different story... Our little beach is my slice of happiness right now, and to make me feel at home, we've gone with a bit of a stony beach, just like the beach close to my home in the UK... 
My doggy and I hit the cool water, looking for pretty pebbles and sea glass... 

I found some treasure that was even better... A Starfish... My Doggy -  a Splashy Spaniel from Jian - was far too excited as he splashed over desperate to see and soaking me in the process!! 
He's lucky that it wasn't too cold LOL...

A Mermaid's Summer Memories

I did two days of being an adult and now I'm back home and cant let my hair down and play for a few days before I have to pretend to be an adult again. Who wants to be an adult... It's time to be something different... I'm gonna be a mermaid! I love being a mermaid hehe... 
I don't just want to be a normal, pretty mermaid though, I'm going to be a slightly dark and devious mystery of a mermaid... 

Dark, devious and full of light and mystery... Lurking under the sea in The Bay, she whips the water into a frenzy trapping fish in a myriad of bubbles, to bring up enough magic to share a memory of a dream she had that she loved... One time when she was happy, able to be on land and build the most perfect of sandcastles, all thanks to a Summer Memori Orb - from Petrichor...

She ain't no Peaky Blinder!

You might have realised that I'm more than a little homesick, and it's making me think back to my family past and present... I've had some very interestingly, colourful characters in my family tree, including a prostitute from London that was alive and working when Jack the Ripper was around, a Bishop of London and even a designer of a well-known memorial momument in Belgium... 
Yet now I'm thinking of my Dad's father and his brothers.. They were a group of 10 and were lads in London, and although they weren't around as early as the 1920's, pictures of them definitely made me think of the Peaky Blinders... 

Of course, one thought led to another, and I'm instantly feeling like I need to re-create something a little 1920's Peaky Blinderish... As my puppy - a German Shepherd Pup from Foxwood at Kustom9 - and I wandered through the streets of Old London - the Victorian London level of the Time Portal - I started to blame my sudden desire for a Peaky Blinder moment on the pictures, but also the amazing new hat and hair that I'd recently treated myself to... 
The MINA "Casey" Hair is a special release for Hair Fair 2021 - located on the Streaks Sim - meaning that a portion of the price you pay for the wig will be donated to the "Wigs for Kids" Charity.

 I was planning on writing something deep and meaningful today... After the weekend I've had though I feel more than a little worn out and I now have to face getting through a few days of work before I can have a day off on Thursday...

Neon Hot, but I'm hiding in the Shadows

 My gosh it's Hot and Humid here today and I'm REALLY not happy about it... I hate this weather... I cannot wait for the summer to be GONE!!! 
Still until that point I'm allowing my mind to drift off into it's own little place of happiness and today things got more than a little neon... The world around her was lit with neon greens and golds, but she kept to herself, hid in the shadows and waited for the heat of the summer to pass... 

I was a little concerned about how dark this picture seemed to be, but I realised I LOVE IT like this... It's kinda moody, mysterious and very light in the background... It's magic, and her subtle neon outfit - made up with the Initiative Set and the Metal Cinch, both of which are from Normandy - work perfectly with her KAY-INFC3ED Mask - a creation for PSYCHO.Byts at Cyber Fair... They are almost like they were made for each other hehe... 
Of course, just to show them off a little better I had to include a close up... I like this look so much and Cyber really isn't my thing normally!!!

I didn't know they made them like this...

Today has been a very hot day, but I had a HUGE need to do a little shopping... 
Aside from the fact that I am more than a little shopping addicted, tomorrow is the start of Hair Fair for 2021, and therefore, because I have early access I had to get home and shop.... Once I'd done a little hairy shopping, I decided to stop by another store just to get myself a little treat for being so good.. 

This toy store - at Kiyori - was full of surprises... I had been busy and chosen myself a whole basketful, but then I found the best invention ever... I didn't even know that they made them like this.... Attached to a drillbit... Attached to a drill - from SPOILED!
