Magically Baking

Pride is a month of parties, Pride is a month of celebration for those that are different, a rememberence of a fight for equality that still has people hiding away, acting like something they are not and not living the life they want to enjoy. If anyone is needing someone now or in the future, sometimes a stranger can provide the best support, and I want people to know I'm here to be that person... 
On a happy note though, since Pride is about celebration I find myself wondering about cake... Rainbow cake for a rainbow party... 

Cupcakes are delicious... Covered in Icing and PERFECT for parties that one of the most special of rainbow fairies is busy in the fairy kitchen whipping up all kinds of rainbow cakes... Rainbow Cupcakes - from Junk Food - and towering tiered rainbow cakes...

Demon of Jormungaad

It's Friday evening, and there have been so many busy things happening today that I want to sleep and drift off to a place that's not Real Life... It's a world full of sparkles, and magic, and the occasional dark force thatsees demons battle the light, taking on the rainbows and prettiness of the fae folk... 
Today the darkness has beaten the light, the demons are winning, they have been battling the monstrous peoplen that walk the streets of Amsterdam at the moment... They are winning... The dark sparkles are drowning me... 

Tonights an Evil Night - like the backdrop from PALETO - I cannot believe that the darkness feels so much better than RL at the moment... I'm a dark little Demon in an Infernal mess, being guided by the markings of the Jormungaad - which is actually a tattoo from DarkQueen at the new round of Ritual that opens it's doors tomorrow, April 22nd, and runs until May 12th...

Muu-velous Picnics of Deviled Eggs & Tulips

It's been a long day, and I've had some crazy people to deal with but now that I'm home I feel like making something delicious for dinner and finding a chance to let my mind drift into somewhere fun and fantastical to allow me to relax after this long day... If it wasn't customers being obnoxious, it was the company head office causing issues starting new systems without any heads up... 
I think I'd like to drive out into the countryside and watch the stars, maybe with a picnic, a blanket and someone cute to enjoy the peace of my evening... 

Under the backdrop of the Starry Night - which happens to be a gorgeous backdrop from Synnergy.Tavis by the way - during an early evening that has been scented by the earliest of 'Spring Bloom' Tulips - from what next, which are actually in planters but I cheekily buried them in the ground - I parked up the truck and set out my picnic - from a Picnic Basket set up by Junk Food - to see what treats I had for dinner... 
Only problem is, my darling little Muu buddies - from YOKAI - decided that their lil cow momma, that I had to dress up as to make sure they all felt safe and happy with me, decided that devilled eggs and chips weren't for them. They fancied the look of the farmers tulips instead...

Sailing away on an Adventure...

I have a headache, I want to get away... I want to run away to a place where I can hide and sleep and let my headache slip away. There must be somewhere I can sail away to, some place magical, some place peasceful that I can be in on my own without the need to talk to people. 
I might just hop on a boat and sail off on an adventure... 

If there was an adventure to be had, perhaps it could be something exciting that would take me to a far off place... I'd find a message in a bottle, a fluffy friend - since I'd need some company on the long journey - and I would board a boat - thanks to the pose and prop in the "Ocean Vibes" Collection from -Extra- at The New Ones Event - and sail away... We'd sail towards the Tempestuous horizon - a beautiful backdrop available this weekend from Synnergy.Tavis, for Wanderlust - on a journey most epic, most magical and most wonderful...

A Dance in the Moonlight

I wanted a little magic today, it's King's Day in the Netherlands and it's a day that hasn't been celebrated properly since the out break of Corona over two years ago. It felt like magic to watch the people be able to enjoy the day as they always have... 
I think that somewhere the magical beings were smiling down, watching the people enjoy the festivities and for once enjoy a little peace in the country I call home. Now that the day is done, the magical beings have decided to enjoy the party too... There will be a party in the clouds, and the moon will like the ballroom... 

At the Aeonian - a backdrop from FOXCITY - the Moon Chairs - from Neverwish - have been plumped with extra pillows for those that have tired, dancing feet... 
The organiser of the party, a guardian of the moon, has been busy setting up the decorations is ready and waiting. Dressed in the attire of the moon guardians, a gorgeous Balika Dress - from Salt & Pepper - while her Beata Halo - from Evil Baby at The Warehouse - and her "Lunatic Enchantment" Moon Crystal - from PANIQ - sparkle in the moonlight.

Sharing Spring Smiles!

One of the best things about March, other than the fact it's my Birthday Month, is that its the beginning of Spring. Spring is such a wonderful season, the life and color that comes with it after the darkness of the winter. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE the darkness, but there's just something about the flowers that spring up in Spring that you cannot help smiling at... 
My garden is over-flowing with flowers, so I've set up a pretty little stall in my market.. I'm not selling them, just giving them to people that would love a little colour in their life... Would you like one?

For some reason I dressed a little like a peasant girl, something akin to Belle in her provincial life before she moves into the palace... The dress is very much giving me Belle vibes, although I'm not sure that's what was in mind when the Gigliola Dress - from Belle Epoque... 
I cobbled this gorgeous Upcycled Market Stall - with a little help from Krescendo - and some magic from a garden gnome that just happened to be a Fairy Godmother... We've decided to spread a little magic and share some beautiful flowers in return for some beautiful flowers... We've got gorgeous, HUGE peonies - that come with the poses from -Extra- at Shiny Shabby - sunny sunflowers, fresh Dutch tulips, and lots of bunches of Springtime blooms... I'm giving them to everyone, all I ask is a smile in return... Would you like a smile today?

Is There A Stairway to Heaven?

There are so many questions to things in life, depending on your mind and the way that your thoughts may drift, especially if you are high on marijuana... Questions like how does that work, where does it come from, what's the difference between this or that, and of course these questions get even more random when you're high! These things can come at random, or be influenced by things around us, and I find it happens a lot with music... The one that inspired me today is Led Zeppelin's 'Stairway to Heaven'...

I find myself wondering, is there actually a stairway or do you think they'd have updated things so that it was an escalator or even a giant glass elevator like you find in the fancy malls... If they do have a stairway, where does it go and what would you find waiting for you at the top? I'm not a religious person, although I do find myself playing in Hell more often than not as a Demon hehe... So I don't know if Heaven would exist in it's conventional sense. I'd like to think there is somewhere I can be reunited with lost family and friends, and all of those amazingly adorable little fur babies I miss so much... 
It's a magical thought, that lead to a magical picture today... There are so many pretty things I've shared, from the adorable YOKAI "Little Universe", to the Sparkling Halo from #LuluB!, and possibly my favourite new necklace from a store that I've just been lucky enough to be accepted to blog for...

Waiting for the Waltz of the Daemons

 It´s beginning to look like Christmas in many different places in SL, but I am at the point of refusing to let that anywhere near me LOL... It´s not even December yet, I´m still loving on October! The colours of Autumn are things I´m not really willing to give up just yet... So for a while, I´m going to be avoiding the subject of Christmas and the fat man in red.. 
Until then though, there should be the startings of some wintery magic... Today I started preparing myself for the Winter Waltz of the Daemons - the theme for the new round of Aenigma - as the monster in me fought with herself to decide what to wear for a waltz... 

For some reason, the dark little fae in me won this round. She's sitting in her dark cave, thinking, plotting and wondering what the waltz would entail. Did she even remember how to dance?!
She loves being surrounded by pretties, the way that the crystals twinkle in the dark and the scent of the roses that she trails as she moves... Her Frozen skin - from Wyrd - sparkles along with the crystals and the Skathi's Kiss wounds - a release from The Rotting Lab for Aenigma - and the Frostbitten Gems - from Static - dazzle and blind...

Keeping the Earth, Safe in it's Place!

Fantasy Faire is up and running, it's one of the biggest events of the year in SL that has been running for years, and raises millions of Linden Dollars for Relay for Life... As you might imagine it's all fantasy based, but for a girl like me it feels like wonderland... I bought more than I might normally because it was for a good cause but now my hoard is overflowing with new fantasy pretties! 
I fell in love with my new balloon, and that lead to the angel in me to float in the galaxy, keeping the earth safely in it's place... 

So the whole thing started because I fell in love with the Holding Planet from Boudoir, and then found the amazing make-up from Venge... Both of these things are available at the RLF Fantasy Faire, and yes you cannot really see the make up clearly but I have added a close up below.
All the pretties as she floats through space... Dancing through the stars, keeping the Earth safe in it's place!

Magic Makes The Clouds

I've been getting lost in one or another fantasy world lately, I don't know why but it's definitely a break from the feeling of normality and it's something that I feel I REALLY need at the moment. It's definitely the only way I can get myself into the mindset of being able to blog anything! 
Today the fae has come back out to play, only this time she's busy working, making pretty clouds... 

The sparkles from her wand - a shrunk down Galaxy Pegasus Staff from PSYCHO.Byts - gather together to form the white fluffy little clouds. Her halo working magic so that the neon tears she sheds, add that glisten to the fluffy clouds - thanks to an awesome new Engel Set I picked up from The Horror for Hump Day! I have to be careful though, too many magical neon tears and the clouds become rain clouds...

The Roaring (20)20s!

I love the fact that people are getting into the spirit of the Roaring Twenties again... The last time the Twenties were a thing it was a time of economic prosperity, a time of change and positivity following the devastation of the war years. Now we're back into the Twenties, albeit 100 years further on, and how times have changed. I'm really hoping that the prosperity of this period becomes apparent with the title of the decade! Let the good times roll, the Roaring (20)20s have begun!!

I have always loved the vintage 1920's that gorgeous Art Deco style with it's sleek designs and bold colour combinations. The Jazz Music, the fashions and the stories that come from this time period are always stylish and fun, and I cannot get enough of the artworks with their bold colours and strong prints! 
So I decided that in the spirit of the Roaring Twenties I'd do something a little Flapper styled perhaps?! A flapper for the modern Twenties, a Roaring (20)20s flapper! The idea came about because of a pose set created by NANTRA - for the current round of The Liaison Collaborative - which seemed to tie in seamlessly with a new gacha collection from LEMME called "Crazy 20's". Both the flapperesque poses and the gacha collection - which include the amazing Back to 20's backdrops - were crying out to be the life and soul of a party! All it took was a few little extras and the right outfit, and Rush was ready to party, (20)20s style! 

What is she wearing;
Hair: Wasabi Pills - Claudette in Reds Pack 
Skin: Glam Affair - Seya in Europa 2 
Necklace: (Yummy) - Satin Bow & Pearls Set in Black

A Necrosis from the Phials of Demons

Shhhh it's here... There is magic in the air, and it's a dark magic... The kind of magic that makes your skin tingle with anticipation... It's a Necrosis, a stage of dying, and it's seeping into the Whispering Pines... The little demoness they call Guen - along with her wicked cohort Asbjörn - have called upon forces of the darkness, and their little demonic friends are coming out to play bring chaos and some rather cute goodies with them... 
One of the little demons got into the Voodoo hut in the swamp... There was all-manner of pretty jars filled with the wild and wicked, but it was the Phials of Demons that she was seeking, sprinkling their magic to welcome in more of their dark, macabre and depraved seekers of delight to the land of the Necrosis... 

For those of you that haven't heard, my tale is more than just a fairy story... Necrosis has really come to Whispering Pines. It's less of a demonic uprising though, and more of a dark little shopping event, filled with some lovely treasures for those of us that like the dark and macabre! 
It may be just a small event, it's early days and who knows what it's future will be, but there are some amazing hidden gems from designers like Zombie Suicide, PsychoBarbie, Solstice, and Witch Craft - as well as others... Just an example of some of the goodies can be seen in this demonic voodoo store take over... 
It started with the coloration of the eyes to the Necrotic Pink FATHER eyes, and as they changed this strange mark of the Astara Goddess appeared on my forehead. I think it should be blamed on the magic leaking from the Phial of Demons that is releasing the Inner Demons! 
Honestly, I'm very excited about this event, both for my dear friend Guennie and for the fact it's time for a little more darkness... Either way I see good things coming, and I cannot wait!!! 

What is she wearing; 
Hair: KUNI - Fran in Fatpack

Pentas for the Angels

I'm so all over the place with my blog sometimes, it could make your head spin. If you didn't know it was my crazy brain then you might be confused and think WTF is going on, but those of you that follow me will know I'm never able to keep up with one style for more than a few posts at a time, and today WELL the girlie me had to be allowed out to play... 
I went a little angellic today, I have no idea how it got to this point, my mind found one teeny item and ran away with it and well... Here we are!!! Bet you can't guess what made my mind think, angel?!

You'll probably laugh if I tell you, but the entire reason for this look was actually the teeny tiny Penta Septum Piercing by Zombie Suicide - which is available at the current round of Suicide Dollz!! I know it's barely visible in the picture, but I made you look, and I've been good - the ad is below - it's SO CUTE, and really well made and I love it!!! I may be trading in my skully nose piercing for it for a while!

Adventures in the Pages of a Book

I've been saying for the past couple of days that I want to go on an adventure... I want to explore, and discover new things, but - and this is a rather important, big butt - as yet I'm being far too lazy in actually starting on my adventures. 
The biggest adventures I'm having at the moment is when I curl up in my comfy arm chair and let myself get lost in a book, preferably with a blanket and a cup of tea, if I'm really lucky... 

Getting lost in a book has always been one of my favourite past times, I love being able to lose myself in a world away from reality. Finding SL was a way to escape the reality, but even here sometimes I feel there is a need to escape! 
So I'm curled up with a book and watching the magic of the pages drag me away into another fantasy... The magical sparkles right from the page, and the monsters and fairies and dragons are here to guide me... 
Nothing is better than a day in your PJs, than a day in your PJs with a blankie, a cup of tea and a good book!!

Dance along the Light of Day

Today is my Bloggiversary, I've been blogging here for 9 years and I never thought I'd make it past a year... So today I want to do something pretty and happy and dancey... 
I'd been lucky enough to be gifted an amazing Rare prize from the Arcade by one of my dear sweet friends, and as soon as I put it on I got a song stuck in my head and that was it... This picture had to come to life... The way it came to life though makes me smile, it's one of my favourite pictures in a long time, and I'm so very happy with it... 
Today Rudh is dancing on a cloud, with drops of Jupiter in her hair, somewhere in the atmosphere... 

If you cannot guess the song, I'll post it later but it's one of those songs that I've known and loved for a very long time now. Yet it's a song that resonates perfectly with this outfit and it's the reason the picture came out looking just like this... I love it so much, I'm so happy with it!!
She's dancing in the atmosphere and shaking those drops of Jupiter from her hair, Earth is so far behind her, that it's a mere speck on the horizon.
The outfit in question is one from Moon Amore, at the current Arcade, but I HAD TO HAVE ONE... It cost me far too much in attempting to get it, until a friend magically gifted it to me and I could dance along the light of day!
So as I promised the song, here it is... Train - Drops of Jupiter...

A ghostly dance for the Lady of the Lake

You may have heard tales filled with magic and romance, but never did a tale seem so full of sorrow as that of the Lady of the Lake... It's a tragic tale of the lonely rogue that had been wounded in the heat of a battle, but somehow found himself on the bank of a placidly serene lake. As if by magic something amazing happened... He was discovered by a woman, not just any woman, one with the scales of a fish on her skin, dressed in nothing but ratty old fishing nets and pond weed... It was this woman that healed him, that nurtured him and revived him, yet there was something mysterious about her that he couldn't fathom... She never spoke! Not a word... Despite this, and the other odds the couple faced, a love began to bloom like the lilies on the lake... After mere days in each others presence, they vowed their eternal love... 
That night, the woman disappeared without a trace. He withered, he waited and all the while the lilies danced on the pond, mocking this poor unfortunate soul. His wait lasted months, years, decades even, until eventually time took it's toll... 
Now I share the end of this sad story, and hope to give some happy relief... Although his body was taken from him, the soul of the man remained tied to the lake... People came and went, the daily lives took place and towns grew up around this once placidly serene place. After a hundred years, time stood still for just one night, everything faded into the mist, and there, dancing on the lily-pads a mermaid in a dress made of lilies, and her ghostly love, share a moment of bliss... 

OK so I got a LITTLE carried away with my story behind the outfit and the photo in general but I couldn't help myself. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this outfit - in fact the whole set - from nani, available at the current round of The Arcade, called Dreamy Pond that when I saw it, I KNEW I would be posting a story about it! I was lucky enough to be given the dress as an early Birthday gift, but oh my gosh it's soooo pretty I never wanna take it off now I have it! 
While on the subject of The Arcade though, there have been a lot of things that I've just had to have this time around... I mean to go with this dress as an example, these perfect MoonAmore "Swan Lake" Ballerina Shoes, and this cute short hairstyle from DOE - called Renee in V2 - just perfectly fit the look I wanted to create! 
Yet I cannot forget to share the details of this awesome pose.. It was a creation of NANTRA, who made it in honour of her lost friend in RL. Such a sad but sweet pose, that I guess prompted my story to come to life in the way that it did, and allowed my mermaid to cry "Tears for Shedwick"...

Spin the Bottle

I have a LOT of people that I feel lucky enough to call friends in my SL, but those that I am closest to I can count on my fingers. Recently, as in just before Christmas, I may have mentioned something about it back then, that the number of people shrunk dramatically. Some of it was friendly, people moving on to new things, while others were causes of great pain. So much drama for one little group as members of the Gators MC left all over the place... 
Yet from the ashes of what was left over a core group remains - Lilian, Max, Solde, HellBone, Chopper and myself - and although there are still others too, these little Gators are the ones that I keep fighting to keep the MC together for. 

Some nights with the MC can be hectic as all heck, we're a bunch of crazy silly idiots sometimes... Though I know I can count on these people. We've been through bad times, but we've come out of it together and we're stronger for it! 
We spend a lot of our SL days together, hanging out and doing random things. Sometimes we have a ride-out to behave on, but other times when we're at home we're being random... 
Yesterday was games night, we somehow ended up ordering Chinese take-out from Lost Junction and playing an impromptu game of Spin the Bottle - thanks to a new pose from Image Essentials at Truth or Dare Affair! Oh lord, did the boys cheer when I had to make out with Solde LOL...
