This one has been a bit of a labor of love, as I've kind of been toying with this picture for about 6 hours. I mean, that's on and off... with short bursts of SL shopping and RL interruptions (girl's gotta eat, yanno.)
I love the outfit too, everything. From head to toe! As usual you can grab some CAIWL unedited pictures below, so whatcha waiting forrr?
I am legit. Effing. Dying... at the complete levels of petty of some people.
Every time I think I may do something daft, and restrain myself... I notice people doing the same thing I stopped myself from doing BECAUSE I AM TRYING TO GROW.
Lawwddd. HOLD ME BACKKKKK.
I think I've been watching too many Jeffree Star Youtube videos, and I may be somewhat channeling my inner Alien, but holy fudge!
Ok I'm over it.
I know I'm potentially shady. I know I've done some seriously effed up things in the past. I know I keep doing things that make people question me... and that's life. For the first time in a really, really long time, I'm mostly at peace with who I am, and have a clear view of the person I want to become in the future. I'm not perfect. I'm not trying to BE perfect, but I am trying to be better - which is all I hope for everyone, every day.
I'm at a point now where I can reflect, and be like... "Hey, this person is not good for where I'm going, or wasn't good for who I was then, but they deserve to be happy, healthy and live their life their way." Will I always hold resentment towards those people who I feel have wronged me? I don't honestly know, because I'm still learning how to forgive... but one thing I will not do (anymore!) is deny that someone once important in my life had an impact on me.
Neither will I deny the memories I had with that person, unless I feel like for whatever reason, they used me as a stepping stone, or as confirmation of their amazing deeds that really only suit their personal agenda.
ANYWAY.
This is such a sub blog, and I'm cringing while typing it, but let's face it, it could be 98% of SL.
It could be my ex best friend or lover, or someone I spoke to twice over a FB chat.
It could also be anyone YOU know, because people, regardless of where you met them, can be dumb as fuck and petty as shit!

Bauble : 3rd Eye_ Everfrost Music Box 11 ( Bridge ) (Gacha) @ The Secret Affair(Note - this is a music box, too! It's so stinking cute and features eight christmassy tunes when you click on it! Also, this has not been resized, and it does not come with any poses.)
I have a bunch of things for you today! I'm still procrastinating from yesterday, so it's completely amazing that I've even gotten to this point, but there's legitimately so much information below, I don't want to waffle for too long so here goes!
Today I'm wearing the Juliet Skin, specifically for the Genus head from Lumae.
Above are tones one through four, and below are tones five through eight.
I chose to show the freckled versions for the tone comparison, they're all equally as beautiful. I did notice that tone 7 and tone 8 do not have the ginger eyebrow option, so I switched it up to the red, which is just as lovely!
Above you'll find a little look at the eyebrow options. I've used tone 4, the same tone as is in my photograph, and I have used the unfreckled option to show them off.
I'm absolutely in love with the lips, they're so pouty and delicious!
Ok, so... I guess I STILL need to work on this presentation for eyelashes. >.>
However, Go&See have provided these lush Mink Lashes for SaNaRae especially for the Genus Head.
Shown in all the pictures are the stunning Lunar Eyes by Lotus at The Arcade, I'm wearing number 2 and number 17, which are similar in colour but different enough to create a bit of a facial focal point, I think!
Today I wanted to make a valiant effort to show off some of the fantastic tattoo's Dappa is producing. I feel like I blink, and he's gotten a brand new product at another premium event, so trying to keep up with him is insane - but Pickle loves a challenge!
I'm showcasing two today, one on Pickle and one on Durex, and although Durex's may not be entirely christmas themed, I felt like the colours fit in perfectly for a scene.
I woke up today with intentions of getting stuff done.
What actually happened was incessant zoning out, ridiculous videos watched on youtube and a whole heap of Ark, Survival Evolved. Welp. There's always tomorrow!

You might recognize today's guest from around this time last year. (also, you might not, but say hi anyway ok?).
Santi is making his debut back in the bloggy blog, after a cool 6 months or so away.
It wasn't his fault he disappeared, but he was more of a casualty in my pre-self-awakening (is that even a thing?). Whatever, he's back now... and I'm not gonna let this lil bugger wriggle away again, because he truly is a gem.
I've decided I talk too much about myself. I mean, they say write about what you know, and maybe that extends to conversation too, but I can't help but feel I'm on the verge of becoming super annoying and also slightly preachy, so for that reason, I'm going to shut up. Or try to. >.>
I know, Pickle looks super sad in this picture, but there's a theory behind my emotional turmoil here.. and it's that although Christmas and the Christmas Season is supposed to be filled with joy and happiness, for some people, it's just not possible.
I think it's an important reminder too, that not everyone celebrates Christmas, whether that's down to religion or personal reasons.. I know that as I grew up the idea of someone doing something differently to me at Christmas time was completely foreign, why would ANYONE want to give up all those lovely presents??
Anywayyyy... Sometimes we all lose track of what Christmas is supposed to be about. It's the season of giving, and for me that doesn't necessarily mean monetary or material items, but it's a time to reflect and actually spend time with those we care about. Everything we think of at this time of year in terms of giving to other people should be continuous themes in our lives, no matter what the season or date, and I for one am grateful that regardless of how successful I am in being decent at reminding people I care, this time of year pokes me in the face and gives a massive hint that I can, and should, be better.
On another note... I did a little research into Krampus (super quick, because I'm old, and learning is bleh.) it seems he's the evil to Santa's good.. instead of rewarding children with presents, he'd kidnap them, drown them and sometimes eat them.
Kinda gross, but thanks Wikipedia for being the reason i'm not gonna sleep tonight.
In fairness, I absolutely hate festivities before Dec 1st, however, when Moss&Mink dropped this Couch & Chair set, I needed to make a warm and cosy Christmassy area that you could cuddle up in contentedly.
The beauty of the Moss&Mink brand is that no matter what your purchase, and no matter what your taste, you can make items fit with their insane colour/pattern hud, and whether you like your entire house to match or just one room, you can make that happen.
With that said, there aren't multiple options when you purchase from Moss&Mink, there's one item (two, if there are pg and adult options), one extraordinarily reasonable price and the colour hud is usually included, so you can create your pastel dream, your classic perfection, or as above, an invitingly seasonal area for a few friends to gather together and bask in stylish comfort.
I have had a long day, in the BEST way, so there's not gonna be a bunch of ramblings here. Instead, have some actual factual information about the items i'm wearing!

Go&See has produced this absolutely freakin' stunning Genus applier.
Above is the "Albi" and "Goth" tones.
Here's the Witchy & Tan options.
And this is the Tropic & Choco options!
All of the skin options come brows or no brows, and there's also extra buttons for Genus Eye options, Eyeliner AND the eyelashes shown are also included in the hud! Yay!
