That Rainy Day Feeling

Posted on by cejalaval

http://That Rainy Day Feeling

Re-entry after vacation… always difficult, but this time? Wow… very rough stressful flights (though not admittedly not as bad as some friends are enduring right now on their outbound) and my body is just “off”.  Bad headache making it hard to concentrate, feelings of exhaustion making it hard to stay awake, queasy stomach… yuk! But with those hours when all that receded (before roaring back with a vengeance lol) I was able to do quite a bit inworld — went through all my mail (as Premium Plus, it takes a lot to have my IMs capped, and they were capped lol!), changed to a brand new summer skin, shopped the Hair Fair, did the weekend sales, even did a little browsing at SL20B.  And I brought that all together for my first return post (a bit late since the event closes today, but I’m pretty happy with the result, especially considering how I’ve been feeling… I was starting to get a bit depressed from just not feeling well, but I’m going to push that rainy day feeling away! If only, I could stop sneezing all over my keyboard lol!

The Qwikee Mart

Posted on by cejalaval

http://The Qwikee MartEver since I stopped living in the city (which admittedly was decades ago lol) I’ve missed having that corner market to grab those few things you need on the way home (or the way out, for that matter).  Now when I need just one or two things I have to go get in either my car or golf cart (!!!) and drive over to the mega-grocery store.  I miss the convenience of easy in/easy out, where I really can do a “quickee shop”.  But on my way home from an early doctor’s appointment this morning, my stomach was growling and what I realized is that I also miss those fabulous egg, bacon and cheese sandwiches with hot sauce on an English muffin that they made on demand right around the corner..,  mmm mmm, wow do I miss the last-minute grab and go deliciousness of that!  Oh well, I guess that’s what kitchens are for lol!

We are NOT pleased…

http://We are NOT pleased...

I am feeling stressed.  And a stressed-out fae is easily upset and angry, and NO ONE likes a pissed-off fae, especially one with a magical staff.  My human counterpart is the source of all my stress.  Because she has this urge to travel the real world — something I struggle to understand since there is so much to explore right here on the grid — my time inworld is being severely curtailed as she runs around getting ready.  It seems to me that it’s more trouble than it’s worth, but my opinion doesn’t seem to count for much at the moment.  Sighs, muttering incantations under my breath, as I feel the darker side of fae moving to the forefront…  all in all, we are NOT pleased  with our treatment, although I DO have to admit that I am beyond pleased with my new look.  So maybe the human is right, and I should just go exercise my wings, practice my fae magic, and sprinkle some fairy dust here and there.  Oh, and of course, shop shop shop!!!

  • Jewelry:  Petrichor – Faline Jewelry.  100% custom mesh & textures, this unique set includes 3 lengths of necklace with either chains or cords, 2 lengths of earrings, & a bindi, together with a HUD to customize them all with 40 different textures for the metals, the gems, & the pearls.  Materials enabled & resizable, this set was introduced at Fantasy Faire but can now be yours at the mainstore.

http://When the Living is Easy

You know summer is definitely on its way when I start blogging swimsuits!  Even though I now live in Florida where it’s mostly on the hotter side of warm year-round (though winter does have its hard freezes where I’m located!!), there’s something about Memorial Day weekend that just makes me want to shift into summer mode and it’s seemingly more mellow vibe, “when the living is easy”.  I think it’s even time to flaunt my more sunkissed skin, now that I’m out there sunbathing in  the SL sun lol!  This is the life!

Posted on by cejalaval

http://In the CathouseYup, I’ve fallen for an animal print again… I actually struggled as to WHICH of the different animal prints to go for with this adorable dress, but I definitely felt drawn to the big cats… & to be fair to the little ones too I just had to get them in the shot!  But time is ticking ticking ticking down to my impending vacation, so no time to chit chat… only time to SHOP, SHOP, SHOP!!!

Safe Harbor Ahead

http://Safe Harbor Ahead

This is the birth of a new persona for me (yes, there seem to be several multiple personalities residing within one small avatar lol), the Dread Pirate Thea la Fae.  I have a feeling that she will make an appearance now and again, though piracy and buccaneering don’t hold a huge appeal for me, I do get a hankering to “shiver me timbers” every once in a while.  An outfit like this DEFINITELY puts me in the mood to taste the salt air and have some rum… unfortunately my parrot companion could not join me due to insurmountable issues with scripted objects the night of my shoot, but the next time Thea la Fae takes center stage I’ll be sure to include the screechy beast!  In the meantime, may you find safe harbor in this troubled world (and of course, happy shopping)!

  •  Outfit:  Jangka Design – Mary.  Fabulously detailed as always, Jangka always inspires character development for me.  Every look has such personality, so much “realness”, they literally bring my “character” to life!  With Mary, you’re ready to take on the high seas or just kick your feet up on a beach & live the life of a corsair! Sized for Legacy & Maitreya, Mary is 100% original mesh & is available in 6 colors (boots & armbands are available in black or brown; the tri-corner hat is brown with a red cockade).  As always, the outfit just feels so authentic & looks so amazing! EXCLUSIVELY AVAILABLE for 25% OFF at the current round of We Love Role Play; demo available.

Play Misty for Me

Posted on by cejalaval

http://Play Misty for Me

I’m a romantic at heart, and although this movie classic is a thriller, it starts off so dreamy that it’s always been a favorite and the mere mention of the song puts stars in my eyes and puts me in a wistful state of mind.  This scene instantly created the thought in my mind, and I decided to just follow the notes… How can I go wrong with a gown like this?  (POSTNOTE: Who knew that I’d used this title back in 2019 and talked about the movie then too??? I guess it definitely is a favorite lol!!!)

  • Gown:  Celestinas – Maisie Gown Dress, worn in Sienna.  Includes Cristal necklace & earrings.  It takes a lot to create a gown that is stylish, sexy, with interesting detail but is not overwhelming… one that enhances your beauty rather than dominating it.  This gown, with its sheen & contrasting panels is stunning but it is NOT the star of the show… instead it uses its magic to put me in the spotlight, & THAT is what fashion is (or should be) all about.  Available in 11 single colors or as a fatpack. Maisie is sized for Legacy, Hourglass, Freya, Maitreya, & Reborn.  EXCLUSIVELY available at the May round of Designer Showcase, open through May 25th.  Demo available.

Morning Errands After A Long Night Out

Posted on by cejalaval

http://Morning Errands After A Long Night Out

My days of staying up all night are long gone, but I definitely do remember them!  The semi-exhaustion permeating everything, the “whatever, I’m not taking the time to change, let’s just get it done” attitude, the goal to handle all the necessary errands in order to just get back home and fall into bed… I’m still considered quite a night owl, especially considering that I live in the south where people tend to rise earlier to beat the heat and then they cocoon inside for most of the day.  I lived in NY for almost my entire life, and I still run on a variation of that schedule, although it’s admittedly a lot more difficult to go out and eat a late dinner down here lol!  I also never looked quite so stylish, especially after being out all night, but then again, this is SL and we can all look as stylish as we want, whenever and wherever!  Well, a few more stops, and I’m home to bed!!! Happy shopping!

  • Outfit:  WILD Fashion – Lexa.  Includes leggings with sheer panels, two alternate tops, optional sleeves, & a 30-texture HUD (see the ad below).  Sized for Legacy + Perky, Maitreya, Reborn + Juicy, Kupra, & GenX Curvy.  EXCLUSIVELY available at the May round of Designer Showcase, open through May 25th.  Demo available.

A Fae’s Fantasy

Posted on by cejalaval

http://A Fae's Fantasy

Even a fae sometimes dreams of a different life… not just as a warrior or a high priestess or a princess or a simple shepherdess, but totally, wildly different (the way a human dreams of donning wings and owning the skies).  After dropping into the undersea worlds at Fantasy Faire (which sadly ends May 8th!!!!), I was tortured over an overwhelming desire to trade my wings and horns in for a tail, and thanks to my very very good friend who often plays as a mermaid (and gifted me the tail!!!), I took the plunge as it were into a whole new world (sorry, a whole new world of plays-on-words is open, and I simply can’t resist!).   Although I still have an awful lot to learn about underwater photography, etc., and my inventory is sadly lacking in mermaid paraphernalia and accessories, I am definitely hooked and anticipate creating many more posts of my fae dreamworld… not quite an alt’s alt, but definitely a different reality!  (As a side note, I just discovered that SL is celebrating the mermaid community and calling this “MerMay” with some special mermaid last names available for a limited time, so even though I am definitely not changing my name or creating another alt, my timing is perfect!)  And on that note, I happily flip my tail (it really is so cool lol), and swim off to explore the weekend sales and spend as much time at Fantasy Faire as possible before the gates close for the year!  There are several Fairelands with underwater areas to explore (The Isles of Aquarius and Sambaubee are where I indulged my first swimming adventure). And remember… the purpose behind Fantasy Faire is not just to celebrate the world of fantasy in Second Life… it’s a mega Relay for Life event to work towards a much larger and more critical fantasy, a world without cancer.  This is Fantasy Faire’s 15th year, and it has relayed more than $632,000 USD for the American Cancer Society in that time.  The window is closing for you to “shop for the cause” while enjoying the wonder and insanely varied creativity on display at this one-of-a-kind event.  Come and join us!!!!

  • Tail:  Aii and Ego – RipTide Mermaid/Merman.  The newest (& IMHO, the ultimate) in mermaid tails, this tail is absolutely stunning!  Fitted for Legacy M+F, Reborn, Maitreya, Athletic, & Jake, the tail has a built-in half-AO (it’s also Tala AO compatible) & includes a 40-texture customization HUD that really shows what is possible with this amazing tail.  AVAILABLE at Fantasy Faire, located in the Szystrum Synod Faireland; you can TP direct to the Aii&Ego booth HERE.  Full demo available! (& see the ad below)
  • Tail Texture:  Mermade – Shifting Sands.  This is an applier for the RipTide Mermaid tail.  It comes in 6 unbelievably glorious textures, all of which include the brand-new utilities HUD that not only lets you apply the texture to the tail & fins but also provides options for shine & bubbles. It also features Glowlite, an exclusive Mermade bioluminescence that can be easily toggled on/off.  Special RFL texture is EXCLUSIVELY AVAILABLE as a 100% DONATION to RFL at Fantasy Faire, located in the Faireland of The Isles of Aquarius; you can TP direct to Mermade’s booth HERE.

Midnight at the Oasis

Posted on by cejalaval

http://Midnight at the Oasis

I’ve been so happily busy — obsessed even — with spending every spare second  that I’m not putting together fashion looks over at the Fantasy Faire.  Between shopping and exploring and doing on-site photo shoots, time has been FLYING by.  And then suddenly I realized that it’s already May and that the Faire will close in just a few days on May 7th and I’m panicked that I never spent any time with all the wonderfully awesome non-fashion goodies.  So I immediately unpacked all of my outdoor favorites and started seeing what would work together to create a dino-mite scene (sorry, sorry, sorry, I haven’t had my coffee yet!) that would fit in a photo frame.  For some reason, the song ‘Midnight at the Oasis’ started playing in my head (maybe it was on Fantasy Faire radio at the time? I honestly don’t know), but I can’t get it out of mind, and it was that or something about a meeting getting off to a rough start, so that’s the title I’m going with lol.  And now, back to our regularly scheduled program!

  • Dinosaurs:  Prehistorica – The Dawn Kingdoms – Amazing, amazing, totally AMAZING!!! I admit I went a bit dino crazy, but these are just so incredibly realistic (well, it SEEMS realistic, having never really seen a dinosaur I guess it’s all conjecture, now isn’t it?) that I just couldn’t help myself.  If you want to ride — or be — a dinosaur, this is definitely the place to go because they not only have all these to buy they’ve created a prehistoric land where you can RIDE since it admittedly takes quite a bit of space when you’re on one of the big ones.  All of what I used to make this scene & more are available at Fantasy Faire in the Faireland of Khumbala; you can TP direct to Prehistorica’s booth HERE:
    • Allosaurus Animesh Creature (far right with me on top!) – just one of a line of creature “pets” that are rideable or free-roaming.  The controls are really easy to manage, & he roars on command.  Such fun, I can’t stop grinning!!!  See the ad below for more details.
    • Utahraptor Rideable Pet (front left of pool) – one thing that I LOVE about this guy is that you can ATTACH him to ride if you’re in a no-rez area… AND he has a color customization HUD.  Did I mention how much fun it is to ride a dinosaur?  Just one of a range of rideable pets. See the ad below for more details.
    • Utahraptor Decor (upper left of pool) – perfect for helping to create scenes like these, they also include a color customization HUD; sound options are also part of the menu options.  See the ad below! 
    • Drogon, Valyrian Adult (back of pool) – if you watched House of the Dragon, then you’re familiar with Drogon.  I kind of cheated with this one… he’s part of two special EXCLUSIVE diorama sets (The Blazing Throne & The Winter Throne that are each a 100% DONATION to RELAY for LIFE.  I’ve included the ad below for them, & you can see him in all his animesh glory the minute you walk into the store (& he really is a don’t miss sight!) 
  • Rock Pool:  Dabble (FKA Tyler’s Treasures) – Forest Rock Pool.  NEW! the rock pool not only looks fabulous with animated water (& animated sounds!), but it also is full of single & couple bento animations (see the ad below).  AVAILABLE in adult or PG for 25% OFF at Fantasy Faire, located in the Faireland of WooHoo! Bay; you can TP direct to Dabble’s booth HERE.  
  • Trees:  Dreamland Designs – Magical Tree Scene.  Totally beautiful scene that is perfect for both fantasy & what I’ll call “more realistic” landscapes.  Includes the “magical tree,” flowers, magical sparkling lights & wisps (see the ad below).   NEW, EXCLUSIVELY AVAILABLE & a 100% DONATION to Relay for Life at Fantasy Faire, located in the Faireland of Giggenwhirl; you can TP direct to Dreamland Designs booth HERE.
  • Stone Portal (on left):  [QE Designs] – Mystic Stones.  Set includes three different shape stones with lights, with portals (shown), or bare.  Includes a HUD to change the color of the stone, & of the portal (see the ad below).  AVAILABLE as a 100% DONATION to Relay for Life at Fantasy Faire, located in the Faireland of The Shimmering Fen; you can TP direct to the QE Designs booth HERE. 
  • Grassy Stones & Pools:  Mindgardens Creations – Pandora Rocks.  An incredible set of rock shapes (including those with ponds & the big arch in the back; see the ad below) that are available in four different rock textures — grassy stone, (which is what I used), brown stone, dark stone, & winter stone.  The possibilities are truly endless! Even more, each set is a 100% DONATION to Relay for Life at Fantasy Faire, located in the Faireland of Frostweald; you can TP direct to Mindgardens booth HERE.
  • Sphere:  Raindale – Moonstone Platform & Magic Sphere.  Includes animated magic spheres in 5 colors plus a platform in 3 colors with 5 gem colors (I didn’t use the platform, but see the ad below for details).   AVAILABLE as a 100% DONATION to Relay for Life at Fantasy Faire, located in the Nysaris Faireland; you can TP direct to Raindale’s booth HERE.
  • Fantasy Flowers:  Fantasy Illumination – Fantasy Utopia Flower.  Original mesh, materials enabled, this unique fantasy flower has flowing animated lights in the middle.  Available in two colors (pink & white) as a 50% DONATION to Relay for Life at Fantasy Faire, located in the Faireland of Opera; you can TP direct to Fantasy Illuminations’ booth HERE.  See the ad below for more detail.
  • Crystals:  Harshlands – Glowing Crystal Plants.  Set of original mesh plants with glowing crystals in 5 colors + tintable.  Includes three grouped shapes & one crystal cluster, all of which are easily resizeable.  Particle fireflies included.  See the ad below for more detail; at the current round of The Liaison Collaborative, open April 18th – May 10th.
