DJ Got Us Fallin in Love

http://DJ Got US Fallin in Love

Blogging is a strange thing. Some pictures can take hours and hours or even days, between putting together the look, the scene, the editing, the writing.  Nothing feels right, it’s all somehow out of sync. Others just seem to naturally fall into place with an image blossoming in your head almost like a piece of music. Thankfully these days most of my pix fall into the latter category, with this being a prime example. I’m wearing items from 4 different sponsors — one, Syndicate Sunday, for the very first time!! — and rarely have all the right notes sounded so clearly when coming from such disparate sources.  It’s kind of like falling in love… the magic starts happening and you need to just let it carry you where it will.  So let’s turn that volume up, and dance to the music!!!! 😉

I’m so honored and thrilled I can’t even tell you. If you read this blog at all, you may have noticed that 7DS are with VERY few exceptions, the only skins I wear… I just love their detail and their beauty, on both my LAQ and Tonic heads (they’re Omega).  So my heart is flying high today, a perfect day to feel all the love around me, even while freezing my ass off here in RL!!!  Stay warm! 😉

The Flowers that Bloom in the Spring

http://The Flowers that Bloom in the Springhttp://Introducing ABBII’ve stubbornly got the Gilbert & Sullivan lyrics and thoughts of spring in my head as I watch the snow squalls of the polar vortex through my windows.  If I couldn’t escape to the freshness and (imagined) warmth of spring and summer here in Second Life, I could see myself succumbing to cabin fever and just losing it.  As my recent posts all attest, I definitely have spring on the brain.  And if the essence of spring is rebirth and newness, then in some ways, I’m living it as well… not just in my new home, but with new sponsors, and in the new looks and new designers I’m finding, and of course sharing with you! 😉

  • Head: Tonic – SNEAK PREVIEW!!  Abbi, the brand-new bento head from Tonic has a whole new look, from other heads on the market & from the earlier Tonic heads.  Yes, I’m still tweaking here & there, but I’m so happy to finally be able to wear her out & about!!! Abbi will be launched at the February eBento, which opens on Feb 8th.  More details to come as the date comes closer.
  • Dress:  D!vine Style – Ruby Cold Shoulder Tunic Sweater; wow, I just love this dress, which was available at the Jan Dazzle Event (now ended)! It’s a shape I’ve never worn before, & the criss-cross on the breasts together with the off-shoulder & teeny spaghetti straps, & then the gentle drape around your body… well, to say it’s incredibly flattering doesn’t do it justice. And the HUD! I’ve NEVER seen a HUD with so many incredible options to choose from — there are “themes” with neutrals, patterns, prints, text, geometry, fur, knit, sequin… & they ALL look great!  I was so torn, but then decided to go with MY theme… SPRING, & to start gathering my rosebuds with my best come hither look! Sized for Tonic, Belleza F/V, Slink H/P, Maitreya, Ocacin, Voluptuous, & Classic.
  •  Jewelry:  Stone’s Works – Snake Charmers Choker in Silver Coral; this GORGEOUS choker is at the Medieval Fantasy Fair VIII from Jan 26 to Feb 16, but there’s nothing medieval about it!

  • Shoes: [Sheba] Creations – Lavinia Slingback, to add the perfect “spring” to your step! The standard 50-color HUD lets you sets one color for the base of the shoes, another for the top strap so that they can match almost any outfit. Sizes for Belleza, Slink & Maitreya.

You Make Me Feel So Young

http://You Make Me Feel So Young

OK, I’ll admit it right here… I’m no spring chicken. After all, I’ve been here in Second Life for almost 12 years (geez, that makes me certifiably ancient, doesn’t it!), but still, there are times that I just feel incredibly young and playful. Unlike in real life, where my body may not be able to run and frolic as easily (or look as good doing it lol), here I can do whatever I want, for as long as I want, never ever get hurt, and look simply wonderful the entire time! And if I ever saw an outfit that made me feel young, this is it. Just something about it, made me feel totally young at heart… My suggestion? Go grab a demo and see for yourself!

My newest nook!

http://My newest nook

Sometimes I just don’t know when to stop, and to say “no, I think I’m doing enough right now.” First off, I’m looking for a part-time job in Real Life.  That’s a lot of stress, a lot of anxiety, a lot of self-doubt.  Second, I’m now the Blogger Manager for Allure Couture, something I’m ultra thrilled about! Not only is it a fabulous line of formal and casual wear which I blog and wear all the time (the latter being the TRUE test), but the designer is my absolute best friend and I love her dearly!  (Our first blogger search for male and female bloggers is still open, so if you’re interested, the link to the app is in my FlickR stream!)  Third, for some strange reason, I applied to blog for a few new lines (why, why, why???) that for various reasons piqued my interest and that I felt I could handle with my schedule; so far, I’ve been accepted by one, rejected by another, and haven’t heard from the third. And fourth, and this is the one that is currently killing me, I decided to move. Those who’ve followed my blog for a while may remember that I moved to my recent lot less than a year ago, and while I loved it then, all the built-in levels kind of pissed me off when I winterized. Now that it’s time to de-winterize, I found myself a bit dismayed by the prospect. With tier due in 3 days, I decided to see what else was available in the estate group (I LOVE GlenXi Estates, which is where I currently live) and found the PERFECT lot… a teeny bit larger, about 100 more prims, for a smidgin more tier with more useable land and less levels… DONE!  So now I need to LANDSCAPE (which yes, is a passion of mine in SL). But did I stop? Of course not!!! I went one step further, and decided I needed a new house too, which means REDECORATING! And although I’m just starting, here is my first pic from my new property, with some pretty new things, like this awesome hanging chair and stool!  😉

  • Top:  MOZ Designs –  NEW! “Lilly” Tank & Tee is a combination tee & tank top. The tank is pretty standard but the tee! It’s just the cutest, the way it’s worn off-shoulder, wrapping around & tieing at the side.  Single packages & fatpacks for solid or graphic tees (the graphics are ADORABLE!!!), or a superpack of all. You can also choose to wear each piece separately for even more flexibility.  Original fitmesh for Tonic, Belleza, Maitreya, eBody, & Slink.
  • Skirt:  MOZ Designs –  “Flare” Skirt, is a short lo-hung little skirt that goes with everything & flaunts those curves! Solids, denims, & patterns also available,  Original fitmesh for Tonic, Belleza, Maitreya, eBody, Slink, & EVE.
  • Skin:  7 Deadly s[K]ins – Nuova is a very fresh-faced skin IMHO. Beautiful & dewy, she’s based on GENUS, but I’m wearing her on LAQ & I think she looks gorgeous!  Nuova is EXCLUSIVELY available at the Sense Event through Feb 8th, where you can choose from fatpacks of 7 dark or light tones (I’m wearing her in Cashew browless, which is one of the Dark tones); shape & demos are also available. 
  • Hanging Chair & Stool:  Bloom! – Boho Set Love, both pieces are filled with animations (the chair has both couple & single anims, while the stool has single anims only); the perfect addition for any home, inside or out, whether you choose to use separately or together! Also available with brighter, flowery pillows.

Springtime Dreams

http://Springtime Dreams

I have been a Tonic gal ever since I made the switch to a mesh body, and I’ve never once regretted my choice. To this day, I believe that Tonic is the most natural-looking of ALL the mesh bodies, especially when it comes to curves… and let’s face it, I’m all about the curves (the blog is named Ceja’s Curvy Chic after all!)… However, and it’s a big however, Second Life clothing designers just aren’t keeping up with my taste or that of my fellow Tonic beauties. Yes, sometimes other sizes fit perfectly with a tweak of the alpha HUD, something I’ve tried to always mention in copy.  But it’s a fact that as a blogger it can sometimes be a struggle to show clothing at its best when it just doesn’t really fit and it takes an incredible amount of time to try to make it work, time that I simply don’t always have. This outfit (which I’m blogging because it was supposedly at Designer Circle but isn’t!) was the one that finally put me over the edge. With this neckline that totally frames this awesome tattoo, I definitely wanted to blog it, but even wearing two different sized cardigans, bits were either still popping through or visible parts were alpha’d out. After hours of tweaking and adjusting, I bit the bullet and decided to get a 2nd body from among the most popular brands so that not just this outfit but all the others down the road would fit.  My goal was to look as close to my current figure as possible, and with some experimentation I was able to easily achieve that with Slink Physique.  After purchase, I’ll admit that I ran into some issues getting my tattoo to show which caused me to reach out to Slink customer support because that was part of the whole point… within 10 minutes, I not only had a response, but they had checked me out, and as an experienced blogger who credits everything I was also gifted an Hourglass body so that I could play with it and hopefully blog about that body too! WOW! Completely unexpected, and completely blown away!  This will open up lots of new blogging opportunities in all kinds of designs that I haven’t been able to model before… so many exciting things to look forward to!

And for my first blog wearing Slink Physique:

  • Skin:  7 Deadly s[K]ins – Cynamon just has a fresh look to me which is why I thought her perfect for a springtime photo (not to mention she’s lightly freckled, which to a redhead is a HUGE plus). For this bright green sweater & my red hair, I chose the Butter tone from the Light Tones (browless so I could have my red brows) but you can choose from fatpacks of light or dark tones.  On sale for just 250L per fatpack at the Designer Circle 02/19 Jan 20th – Feb 2nd. Shape & demos also available.
  • Tattoo:  WitchCraft – Yanna, 3 versions (40/60/80%), on/below chest, down arms & back. In Maitreya, Belleza, & Omega appliers. Also includes a separate applier for the legs. EXCLUSIVE at the Designer Circle 02/19 Jan 20th – Feb 2nd.
  • Body:  Slink – Physique Mesh Body Original, Full Version including Hands (Dynamic) & Feet
  • Outfit:  Enigma – NEW! Soraya Set, includes the cardigan, jeans & heels.  The cardigan is to die for (or in my case, to buy a body for lol); LOVE LOVE LOVE this neckline… it’s daring without being overly risque, & then ties off in a perfect wrap at the waist, with wonderful textured ribbing on the front.  Choose from 6 colors for both the cardigan & the pants in the HUD.  Sized for Belleza F/V, Slink H/P, & Maitreya.
  • Head: LAQ – Athena (Bento)
  • Hair:  Doux – Air

Recipe for Love

http://Recipe for Love

Let me say it right here, I’m not much of a cook these days. But I do love to bake.  I resist the urge more often than not because I eat up all that fresh-baked goodness and without sliders in RL I’m not happy with the results lol, but when I saw this pose set, I just couldn’t resist THAT urge. And then this outfit from Graffitiwear… well, let’s just just say it’s absolutely perfect for cooking up something hot and delish for your honey, or for creating the perfect man… in gingerbread form! 😉

Steampunkin’

http://Steampunkin'

I’ve been in Second Life a long long time, long enough to see an incredible amount of changes. Most have been for the better, but I’m sad to say that others have, in my opinion, been a great loss.  I trace some of it back to the creation of Homestead Regions, which I know a lot of people love, but their creation meant the death of what I’ll call the open regions (I don’t remember the actual name) which allowed for vast amounts of open SAILABLE water around islands with just a whale or some dolphins here or there for interest.  It was wonderful! And although many of the subcultures that once flourished in SL and gave it so much diverse character may still exist, they tend to keep much more to themselves in their own enclaves. Steampunk is one of those subcultures, one that has always held particular appeal for me. Yes, it’s still here, but nowhere at the strength or popularity that it once was. And yes, I found plenty of designers still catering to this market, but in hours of searching I discovered relatively little in terms of physical locations where steampunk was the rule and done in a way that made you stop and go WOW. What a sad loss for the grid, though I’m hoping that my search skills were just lacking, and there’s a whole hidden world of steampunk hiding somewhere for those who know where to find it.  At least I’ll be dressed and looking good if and when I get there! 😉

  • Outfit:  Key Style – Lady Steampunck, available in both red & black, this awesome outfit includes the jacket, pants, shoes, hat & sunglasses.  The details are fantastic… I love the combination of the cut-away barely-buttoned long jacket, all the open lacing, the open cuffs, the lace-up shoes with the vintage pattern, & the cute little hat with the cameo & chains! Just WOW!  Sized for Belleza, Slink & Maitreya.  At the Designer Circle 02/19 Jan 20th – Feb 2nd. Demo available.
  • Skin:  7 Deadly s[K]ins – Aura looked so perfect I kept her on from my last post. Based on LAQ & exclusively at the Designer Showcase through Jan 31st (right when you first walk in the door!), you can choose from fatpacks of 7 dark or light tones (I’m wearing her in Cashew browless, which is one of the Dark tones); shape & demos are also available.

The Race Is On

http://The Race Is On

Do you ever feel like you’re in a race, but you don’t know for what?  I used to call it “hamster in a cage”, running without ever getting anywhere, and not a medal in sight lol.  Somehow when I put on this jacket (GREAT little leather jacket, isn’t it?) it immediately made me think of racing, and then my mind was off, down all those memory lanes. The picture I REALLY wanted was with some sexy yellow sports car, maybe even a racing car, but frankly, I stumbled upon this and my post-holiday pocketbook said “that works!”…  So no medals once again, but I’m looking first-class, and in my book, that’s the only award I need! 😉

  • Jacket:  AtiK :: Skins & Fashion Woman – Alita Leather Jacket, I just love the fit on this one! With its turned up collar, very-unzipped-zipper, and pushed up sleeves, it’s a wonderful additional to every girl’s closet!

Solids, denims (including some prints!), & tweeds also available,  Original fitmesh for Tonic, Belleza, Maitreya, eBody, Slink, & EVE.

The Magic of an Early Spring Breeze

http://An Early Spring Breeze

Totally lucked out this weekend. Forecasts were initially for up to a foot of snow followed by ice. We escaped with only a few inches of snow; we’re still waiting for the deep freeze, anxiously looking out the window, checking the generator and the flashlights, just in case.  I guess it will still be quite a while before I get to open the windows to let the freshness of a spring breeze wash through the house, but a girl can dream, can’t she!?!
