Am a bit late getting this posted so I might earn demerits or a time out lol! We're allowed to have fun right? Riiight.. So for this <b>Twisted Color Challenge</b>, I chose <b>Shey's Laura Peplum Dress</b>, this version recently showcased at <b>Hollywood, the Event</b> last week. I love that <b>Cuba Avedon</b> includes a texture HUD with this purchase. Yeah yeah I know the mesh cut/build/template whatever goes back to that 'sameness' issue, but think of all the pairs of skinny jeans you have in your closet that pretty much have the 'same cut' but are textured... (I MEAN, painted?? sewed? patterned?) differently.. mhm. No more talk of sameness issue with me anymore :-)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
My head is garbed with <b>LeeZu's 'Garbo' Hat</b> which also has a texture changer er thing! Just click on the hat and you get a drop down menu with multiple color options. <a href="http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Neo/60/221/567" target="_blank">Grab this goodie at this month's <b>L'accessoires!</b></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This week I've been sorting and resorting my<strike> inventory</strike> virtual wardrobe closet and the flow is getting there. It used to only take me less than 5 seconds to do a keyword search and find things, but now it takes me longer because I keep 'loving' on, new brands and creations! Which.. is a good thing! Right?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Right.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Lately, I just haven't been as focused as I would like or hope to be. I blame the drugs. I truly truly do :P While on a midnight stroll (troll, lurk, stalk, whatever) through posts by some of my favorite bloggers, I noticed <b>Strawberry Singh</b> had done a lovely portrait using <a href="http://itsonlyfashionblog.com/author/cajsalilliehook/" target="_blank"><b>Cajsa Lilliehook's </b></a>projectors which are available online <a href="https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/FIAT-LUX-Blue-Double-Projector/4740214" target="_blank">here</a>. So fellow padawans, we of course must heed the call and learn for ourselves!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Cajsa has a vast amount of tutorials many of which I've gone through and incorporated in my uhh ongoing snapology thesis <i>aka photo manipulation. </i>I did <u>try</u> to build my own, and it worked fine until I noticed there weren't any shadows behind my avatar. Might try to tinker with it again. (Yo, I didn't say I was pro so ease off mah face!) For those in the know, that is ghetto speak for, Yes I am a noob.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
DO read <a href="http://strawberrysingh.com/2013/04/11/playing-with-projectors/" target="_blank">Strawberry's post on this</a> as well as <a href="http://itsonlyfashionblog.com/2012/08/16/projectors-made-easy-as-123/" target="_blank">Cajsa's tutorial </a>for more information.</div>
Thanks for dropping by and remember fellow padawans, <i>"Do or do not. There is NO try.."</i><br />
<br />
<i>**Post edit insert here**</i><br />
<i> O.O so I was going to put in a reply to Strawberry's post thanking her for the motivation to finally work on pictures with projecting lights and found a bunch of.. well CRAP in the comment boxes. Word to the wise and haters... Thank you for your hitpoints. (what's that like 50 views per negative comment?! Someone call a code ID10T? I think sooo!)</i><br />

Raise your hand if you were singing along with the rest of us? *chagrined*<br />
So I'm one of those that hasn't heard about the upcoming <a href="http://www.disneymovieslist.com/blog/3063/nemos-sequel-will-be-finding-dory" target="_blank">Disney movie for Dory</a> and much to my dismay, was mercilessly teased by my teenagers that their dear old mum, was quite behind on the latest and greatest. Right..I do love whitty children I do..<br />
Oh Dory, Dory, the perpetual optimist with the child-like faith, your positive attitude, your classic sense of humor. Where were you during the last post? jk. Your short term memory loss inspires the likes of me. That's why my local office supply store runs out of Post-It notes every weekend. Lately, my memory has not been so great due to my RL medications and its quite humbling in your mid 30's :/ Thank goodness for the internet, eh?!!! (that's about the only ditzy line I'll write here, I promise.)<br />
The color combo for Dory was very similar to Snow White's last week and as luck would have it, an opportunity to finally show off my yellow <b>Crash Republic's</b> Gauze Beach Pants. I am also wearing the collared shirt in navy from <b>mon tissu's</b>, where I took this image. You can see in the reflection on the tugboat, the<b> Erare Project Tanks.</b>. which I think is an in-genius build btw. I had my Dory posed staring into the tanks but yeah, that didn't work out so well. Ah well...next time.<br />

Didn't even know there was a SL Press Corp, huh?.. My gosh folks, give us fashionewbies a hint lol.<br />
After clicking the 'Publish' button earlier for <a href="http://cozeysl.blogspot.com/2013/04/l2s-8-thats-hollywood-baby.html" target="_blank">today's Learning 2 Style post</a>, I happen to glance over at my blog roll thingie ma jig..and saw that Gogo over at Juicybomb.com had a few updates I missed. Long story short, went over and did a quick glance to catch up and came across<a href="http://juicybomb.com/2013/04/09/collabor88-be-nice-to-your-press-team/" target="_blank"> her recent article on Collabor88.</a><br />
Apparently, a few bloggers who've covered <b>Collabor88</b> events were banned without notice and if you have time to dig out the nitty gritty, more power to you lol. (yeah I mentioned I love gossy in<a href="http://cozeysl.blogspot.com/2013/03/strawberrys-social-media-meme.html#more" target="_blank"> this meme</a> right? mhmm)<br />
With that being said, I myself, am still, a fan of <b><a href="https://my.secondlife.com/drinkinstein.sorbet" target="_blank">Drinkinstein Sorbet's</a></b> designs.. maybe not of the designer herself..I perved her profile, she seems like a decent person I guess, (she does live in Hawaii laadeedaa). But you can appreciate the design and not the artist, its a free virtual country! So I read through Gogo's blog and through the comments link backs, etc. Not that anyone cares, but I agree its bad form to <a href="http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=diss" target="_blank">diss</a> a handpicked event blogger by banning them from said covered event.<br />
That's kind of a 'duh' thing right? Event coordinating isn't a walk in the park. I get that you have to cater to vendors/designers and I get, that everyone is due their fair share, designers, customers, organizers alike. So, Event Coordinators... here's an old tip for you in case you plum forgot.. Bloggers can be your worst nightmare, or your best of friends. Even newbies like moi, know the value of our printed opinions. That is what I love about my country tis of thee... Words have power, and I'm so glad for this freedom and right.<br />
Imagine how far an idea, negative or positive can be reached across the internet with one mouse click. This isn't a new concept. So here's what I'll take from both Gogo's article and SL Fashion Events in general. <b>Collabor88</b> is one I've always gone to because of the hype and this one especially for <b>Glam Affair's Margot </b>(shameless blurb). I will be more cautious this time round, simply because I would hate to think there really are <b>Richards </b>out there.. female or male..<i> with or without tentacles.</i><br />
Ciao ciao...<br />

Hi folks. So a few things I did to break out of the blogging blues. Built a make shift, long curtain drape, thing..that I've been seeing every where since Methuselah..and finally went to <b>The Event | Hollywood</b>. Not sure what to call it, <b>The Event @ Hollywood?</b> <b>The Hollywood Event?</b> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I actually thought the build was decent. <a href="https://my.secondlife.com/roscko.cobalt" target="_blank">The Hollywood Star walk is a brilliant design</a>. ehem.. righhttt, so as I was yammering about the blogging blues. I think its non infectious and will try not to spread it. I believe we catch it when we're either uninspired, bored, overinspired, over active, RL gets in the way, or what I'm going through, <strike>self doubt</strike> low SL picture taking self esteem. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
See I'm not a whiz at Photoshop, Gimp or any other, and I lack the patience to drag out ye old super computer for sole use of its graphics card... which will then enable lights and shadows on my client. And for me to take the time to gut out all my machines, just to take pretty pictures of products that I buy, and that I will probably only wear once (for a post)..well, its sort of a lot right now. This is the malady I'm suffering. Please tell me I'm not alone lol. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So with whatever tools I have or have learned how to use from <a href="http://ticklemetummy.com/" target="_blank">epic bloggers </a>who aren't so self righteous as to share their knowledge, I just plod right along. Never started this thing for followers or a huge blogroll, and from reading <a href="http://fashion.doubleasl.com/blog/why-fake-traffic-sucks-and-how-it-hurts-your-business-blog/" target="_blank"><b>this post earlier from Alon Alphaville</b></a> himself<a href="http://designingsl.com/" target="_blank"> (<b>Designing SL</b> fame)</a>, it only solidifies what I've always believed about blogging in general.<b> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KPmoDYayoLE&list=UUSAUGyc_xA8uYzaIVG6MESQ&index=1" target="_blank">Do it because it makes you happy.</a></b> Write because you mean things.

Hellos! Welcome to the celebration! What's the occasion? Why, we're celebrating the fact that CozeySL is now caught up with <b>The Twisted Color Challenge!</b> (cue applause gesture here.. no spam though!) Righhttt lol.<br />
So this maxi dress is pretty interesting, and is from <b>Loovus Dzevavor.</b> I found it at <a href="http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Blueberry%20Hill/50/36/2002" target="_blank"><b>SL Fashion Week</b> </a>last week and the chevron pattern is what drew me. The only issue I really had was that bottom bit which I'm not sure if the designer intended. And I didn't want to 'not' show it in a post either, because its poor fashion blogging etiquette to hide stuff like that yah?<br />
Anyway, I felt confident in my purchase regardless, not to complain about the dress but more to focus on the pattern which is fab. I'm enjoying seeing this trend on different pieces and hope to see more on the grid.<br />
I also wanted to point out, again, the skin that I am wearing by <b>Plastik</b> that was showcased at this year's Skin Fair. <b>The Astrali series </b>includes several makeups and tattoo layers. I chose the <b>Saturne Skin</b> (again lol) along with the<b> Daah </b>face tattoo. My favorite feature about the Saturne skin is that it has a bit of shadow under the bottom of the eyelids and depending on your shape, it can be prominent or subtle.<br />
Its still pretty early in the week but I am glad to have had the chance to catch up with the colors. If you're lurking around, and have needed a good jump start for your blog, this challenge is a great way to start. <b><a href="http://sookietriellis.com/category/blog-challenges/twisted-color-challenge/" target="_blank">Do visit Sookie's World for more information and the next theme..</a></b><br />

For this <b>Twisted Color theme</b>, I chose a few things that were already in my inventory for once lol. The only 'new' additions were the <b>Slink's Astrid Boots</b>, which are drop dead gorgeous. I've been contemplating on getting the updated mesh hands but am waiting for a few more skin creators to make their Huds.. (yeah shameless plug there lol). I am glad <b>Slink's skin matching system</b> is gaining track though, its always a good thing when creators make it easier for us to utilize their products to its fullest potential yah?<br />
And I'm still practicing ye ole PS skillz. I think SL fashion bloggers have the toughest job ever. I commend you all for sticking to it and trust me when I say I am <strike>stalking</strike> learning so much. Sometimes observation is the best teacher. FYI for fellow lurkers, Windlight, anti-aliasing, render volume LOD factor... these are probably the most important tools you have as a picture-snapshot-taker on SL, so do like so many of us do and study like a boss lol.<br />

Can't ever go wrong with a great pair of jeans. Especially when they're brand spankin' new, like this great find from <b>Tres Blah</b>. I have to admit, I have less than 10 pairs of jeans and my go-to's are usually non mesh. I don't know why and maybe some of you can relate, but something about 'wearing' system/sculpty layers makes it feel more uhhhh.. real? LOL, yeah I know I'm not wearing these irl, and will probably have to visit a psychiatrist after this post.<br />
Right. So the top is from <b>The Secret Store</b> and part of this month's <b>FaMESHed </b>event. Got to visit <b>W.Couture's monthly edition</b> and nabbed these really cute headbands from <a href="https://marketplace.secondlife.com/stores/39051" target="_blank"><b>Le fil Casse</b>,</a> earrings are the latest from <b>Finesmith available at the Limited Bazaar.</b><br />
And <b>Magika</b> released the Rewind 'do' which comes w/ the optional string/ribbon. I really love that their hair has a texture HUD. Its cost effective, and common sense in my book, I understand creators need to make a profit, but there's nothing I hate worst than having to buy different shades/colors to match whatever it is my look will be. I could very well spend that extra L$ on another style in your store.. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OS-RB-goZqk" target="_blank">know what I mean Vern?</a><br />
Thanks again to <b>Sookie </b>over at<b><a href="http://sookietriellis.com/" target="_blank"> Sookie's World</a></b>, for another great <b><a href="http://sookietriellis.com/2013/03/24/twisted-color-challenge-week-13-wearing-denim-at-the-spa/" target="_blank">Twisted Color Challenge!</a></b> I hope this one was closer than my usual blunders lol!<br />

Quick blurb: I've been looking and looking for that perfect 'little black dress' ever since I ditched <a href="https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/ONE-SLEEVE-TULLE-SATIN-DRESS/1681048" target="_blank">a really cute prim/sculpty one</a> I had for years. It had to be simple, subtly sexy, and a unique mesh cut. Fleshtone's Ariana fits my avie<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3nOxdKcqC_I" target="_blank"> 'like a glove' </a>and something I would wear irl as well. So +100000 for the find :-)<br />

Earlier this evening I had a bit of time to go through my reader, and came across <a href="http://sylviaolivier.wordpress.com/2013/04/06/my-life-is-a-movie-soundtrack-meme/" target="_blank">this cute meme </a>posted by<b> Sylvia Olivier</b>.

<i><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I felt like doing an oldie but goodie Meme and you can do it too if you want to share some of your favorite music with everyone.

<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white;"><i><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">It was fun for me because some of my song choices surprised me but I really love doing things kinda Meme’s and seeing what other people come up with too. <strong>If you do this, I’d love it if you commented with your URL/Blog.</strong></span></i></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> </span></blockquote>

<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> A lot of what I listen to is deemed, 'weird' by my kids so you can imagine the scoffing as I paste these links. Being born and raised in Hawaii, many of what I chose are from there. The image I picked (not necessary to do the meme), is a throwback to my pre-blogging days, before I learned about anti-aliasing and 4000x2029kb snapshots :P </span></span></div>

Greetings fellow folklorian fans. This week we celebrate Disney's<img alt="Copyright" height="15" src="http://l.yimg.com/g/images/icon_all_rights.png" style="background-color: #fefefe; border: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; line-height: 18px; vertical-align: middle;" width="15" /> most beloved princess,<b> Snow White</b> at <b>SL DisneyBound</b> and oh what a celebration! <a href="http://www.flickr.com/groups/sldisneybounding/" target="_blank">The Flickr Pool </a>is absolutely breathtaking and should be at least one of your daily stops. For this challenge, I chose to give a nod of sort, to <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1843230/" target="_blank">one of my favorite TV </a>shows who ironically stars, Snow White :-) I won't go into too much detail about the show, but I've included hyperlinks if you care to peek. See if you can guess which part of my version of Snow, gives that 'nod'...Hint! It's non apparel!<br />
I am wearing (or rather Snow is) an ensemble of artilleri goodness from her shoulders down to her ..knees lol. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/groups/artilleri/" target="_blank">Artilleri</a> is a brand I picked up whilst looking for retro items back in the 'club' days, and ever since, I have fallen in love with every single piece in <a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/antoniamarat/" target="_blank">Antonia Marat's </a>collection, Ruby Capris being the top! You can put together just about any ensemble with these capris.. non meshed ultra smooth yumminess. Did someone say hour glass figure? Ch`yeah!<br />
Do be sure to visit <a href="http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/artilleri/131/175/24" target="_blank"><b>Artilleri's Mainstore</b></a> and take a tour around the sim for awesome photo-ops and a good throwback to retro goodness.<br />
There has been so many reboots of Snow's character as of late, more misses than hits I think. But over all, I will always picture Snow, as the princess with the purest of heart, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ecPZi77hTw" target="_blank">destined to reign, destined to roam.</a><br />

Week 12 of <b>Sookie's Twisted Color Challenge</b> gives us the <b>Hemingway in Sienna</b>, twist. I wanted to do a tiny blurb about this color combo because its actually my favorite of the last few orangey challenges we've had. Its very subtle and not too overpowering.. and sienna always reminded me of Arizona, not that that has anything to do with this post mind you lol. (ramble away shall we)<br />
I'm loving TCC for two very distinct reasons.. 1.) I get to shop with a unique color palette in mind and 2.) I get to add really awesome pieces to my <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ed_qmcoQNaY" target="_blank">wardrobe, on my sim, Spare-oom.</a> (Yeah that was kind of cheesy sorry lol)<br />
Yes, I am as determined as an Aries to get caught up so hence the +5 posts for today!<br />

I am having way too much fun with <a href="http://www.ribbet.com/app/#/home/welcome" target="_blank">this editor.</a> I haven't touched PSE or Gimp in almost 72 hours, which I think is good yah? So my lame excuse for not posting better quality pictures without the massive aid of editors, is... my teenagers are on spring break. And when teenagers are on spring break, the good computer with the epic graphics card is, <strike>stolen</strike> commandeered. When teenagers are on spring break, everything in the house breaks including my sanity. (okay no more raving mother rants lets get to that top for <b>Week 11's Twisted Color Challenge!)</b><br />
That top, is pretty amazing considering it is non mesh and designed by <b>Maya Levane</b> of <b>Toki-Doki. </b>The bottom piece is an honest to goodness sculpty! There are several Spring Shirts in this line so be sure to <a href="http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Camomile/229/65/22" target="_blank">drop by and take a peek.</a><br />
Also, I went ahead and finally went to<b> Gizza</b> to pick up the <b>Asia Watch & Bracelet</b> set of which is pretty darn gorgeous. I usually don't wear watches per se` on SL, but there are a few designers who have added more pinache to the accessory. <a href="http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/GizzA%20Creations/126/131/22" target="_blank">Do drop by and make it a staple if you haven't already</a>.<br />
On to Week 12!<br />

<a name='more'></a> Wow that's not even close by a mile lol. I really did try though, the cinnamon was tougher than I thought. But I did want to put in a blurb here about that Tank from <b>DRIFT</b>. It comes with a 15 Texture Changer HUD er thinger which is pretty epic considering all the looks you can create with one purchase. +10 for another staple in my virtual closet :-)<br />
Only a few more to go and I should be right along with this challenge. Try it for yourself and see how many ways you can twist, this theme-set..<br />

<a name='more'></a> Alright.. so 'texturing' is not technically painting or a work of art.. or is it? Semantics, shumantiks..<br />
I appreciate pieces that are different and ride along the fence of flamboyance. Whether designers opt for hand drawing or just piecing together virtual epicness from other artists, when its done right, its done well eh?<br />
Pretty sure that the pieces featured here were made with joy, maybe not the kind that gives you tears but I'll gather the designers weren't in fits of rage either :P<br />
The <b>Feathertide </b>pants in image 1 are by <b>Maia Corvus Monedula</b> of<b> Magic No Magic</b>, and they caught my eye immediately, just all around fun to wear and truly exotic me thinks. I tried to pair them with a solid button down shirt and holy cow, that's the one item I don't have in my <strike>closet </strike> inventory. So there, my lesson for today, make sure to have basic solid pieces.<i> (What's that like, Fashion 101?)</i> <b>Schadenfreude </b>actually has<i> imo</i> one of the best button downed shirts, and yeah I took the lazy route and keyworded marketplace :/ annnddd they're honest to goodness system layers with sculpted collar and cuffs! Really easy to tuck them in mesh pants ;-)<br />
The second image highlights dresses that I thought were very <b>Cozey-like</b> and what I love wearing during Seattle summers. I wouldn't call them babydoll-esque, rather, fun and flirty. The dress on the left is the <b>Sofia Vintage</b> from <b>Mirror's Enigma,</b> and the on the right is a cutesy find from <b>Malfean Visions,</b> currently available at this month's <a href="http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Battlestar/209/227/2502" target="_blank">Outlet Salesroom Event. </a><br />
The final image features the beginnings of a skinny jean fetish that I am currently trying to grow out of, seeing that I never wear skinny jeans irl lol! <i>( we love our virtual barbie, repeats that over and over)</i>. They are from the one and only <b>Precious Restless </b>of<b> Boudoir</b>. If you haven't heard, nor seen nor smelled.. well if you haven't gone, its one of those, you must sorts of things. I can browse forever at all of the images where <b>Boudoir</b> is featured, and<a href="http://www.flickr.com/groups/1351993@N25/pool/" target="_blank"> these pictures are truly works of art.</a><br />
<b> Learning 2 Style</b>, is just that.. an education for the likes of fashionoobsters like me. And I appreciate any comments or suggestions on how to put things together. If you're still around reading this, oh sneaky lurker, just know that intimidating as the SL Blogosphere maybe.. we're all in it for fun. Or we are of all men/women most miserable. Cheers~<br />

Ohhh, we get to do a <b>Top 5 Pet Peeve Meme </b>this week! <b>Strawberry</b> has issued this challenge and gf? You weren't kidding when you said it would cause some drama LOL! I love these memes, and heck, I think we all love that you poop rainbows! We need more of that in this world <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=02WCSLeb3IA">(the rainbows the RAINBOWS!.. omg)</a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Right, no more yacking, let's get to the peeves yah?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Numero Uno: Spam Gesturebation:</b> Didn't even know that was SL terminology did you? Sounds kind of gross but really its a peeve that probably not many might even care about. Since I started to blog, I spend less time at clubs so its not much of a problem now. And TPV as well as SL viewers all allow you to turn off the sounds already so what's the big whoop? Just this...</div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
20 times, over, and over again.....I'll spare your eyes the torture.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Numero two: Residents who IM me about Mesh Clothing. </b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So the IM usually starts like this:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>X resident: "Hi I'm new to SL and couldn't help but noticing that you aren't wearing any clothing. There is an empty space between your torso and legs. It would help me see better if you could put some clothes on.." </i>or some such drivel. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
No joke. I get this all the time. I've never cared one whit if it was said in local. Sometimes chat flies by too fast for me to catch it. But get into my private space and land that one? New to SL? Must have missed the memo about DL current viewers.. seeing that they're all mesh enabled. But alas my bleeding heart..I end up putting on <a href="http://secondlife.com/destination/the-sea-hole" target="_blank">awesomeness</a> anyway.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>#3: Uncouth Virtual DJs/Broadcasters:</b> Here's a tip for the Virtual Spinners, In-world broadcasters and the like. I dig your music, I tip whole heartedly and probably stalk your gigs and tell my friends about them too, but there comes a point when a listener gets sick of hearing<b><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zrvq3wA8FVI" target="_blank"> !$@#$@#</a></b> and <b><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hUeN6LZNPVQ" target="_blank">$%^$%^&,</a></b> repeatedly during a set. Last time I checked, <b>F***in' or F***</b>, wasn't an adverb. So, get over yourself, clean it up, and entertain us with your musical prowess. Sans..bleep.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Number IV: <a href="http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=catfish&defid=5244491" target="_blank">Out and out SL Catfish..</a></b><a href="http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=catfish&defid=5244491"> </a>Yes it's your SL, who are we to judge. But honey if you're playing 10 avatars <i>at the same time or close to it,</i> with his or her own SL life, a different set of kids, partner, sim, job whatever.. do the other person a favor and be up front about it? Chances are they're doing much the same and just love the RP. I know more people who've spent countless of hours devoted to SL for the promise of RL only to get, for lack of a <a href="http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=catfish&defid=5112813" target="_blank">better word</a>, <a href="http://www.mtv.com/shows/catfish/series.jhtml" target="_blank">catfished!</a> <i><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=POE0nBKFo9Y" target="_blank">(watch this video</a> for a good scare)</i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>And last but not least numero 5: </b>I have to agree with the Profile peeve that Strawberry had listed for hers. This is the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GJGx8Mcnxsw" target="_blank">bad mamma jamma</a> right here. When time is spent looking and reading a profile, all the road blocks to communication are usually out of the way because a.) You have foreknowledge, and so, better pick up lines AND better ice breakers.. b.) You leave the ball in 'their' court! See now you can break the ice and not look like a snob or the Bloggeratti, and actually communicate! Reading a profile saves time, saves lives, saves heartaches and saves money. <i><span style="font-size: x-small;">(really! tping to an empty store/land for a purse you saw on a post only to find the store's gone? uh huhhh)</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So that takes care of my top five.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
50k+ active users currently online makes for a LOT of profile <strike>perving, stalking,</strike> reading for me so best get to it! Thanks again to Ms. Strawberry for a great meme!</div>

My.. what a guy that Gaston! Hate him, love him.. eat.. wait.. never mind. When I think of <b>Gaston</b>, the first word that comes to my mind has always been, <b>pompous</b>. And so there in lay my inspiration. I wanted to <strike>find </strike>wear, something outlandish, loud, super out of the norm, weird even!<br />
A look this screamed, "I'm here, like it or lump it".<br />
If this doesn't say Gaston, I might just go out and get my own Le Fou to lick my.. shoes.. ok??!<br />
This is the Molly dress, created by <b>riri Bazar</b> of <b>Hate Me and Eat Me</b>. So appropriate wouldn't you say? And even though the bold colors are more 'Wonder Woman-esque' rather than Gaston.. the message behind the design is clear to airheads like me..<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><i>"</i><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 17px;"><i>Take whatever booty you can find, but remember: the Beast is mine!"</i>.. NO no, darnit that's the wrong message. Bad keyboard!</span></span><br />

That last shopping spurt when you can't get into a full sim<i> (aka Pose Fair 2013 at about 1am SLT)</i>.

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;"> So, many of you know that Maya, the owner and designer behind <b>Toki-Doki</b> is back and she has released a set of cutesy cutesy Haru jackets (SO adorable). I've always loved her simple and minimilistic (sp?) approach to her designs and feature her pieces quite often. She and a handful of talented artists on the grid still incorporate painted on clothing and sculpts for which I am glad. Her mesh creations are awesome as well!</span></div>

<span style="text-align: left;"> Did I come close? Oh dear. Please forgive my color blindedness lol. See, <a href="http://sookietriellis.com/2013/02/10/twisted-color-challenge-week-7-truffle-valley/" target="_blank">this challenge is great</a>, because I have to actually think. It's also encouraging me to look at my RL wardrobe with a different eye as well! Never mind that I get fashion tips from my 13 year old teenager! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I used my client's keyword filter and looked for yellow or mustard but nothing really popped out. So I figured lets try a bronze or gold and upped pop one of <b>Gizza's</b> classic but oh so relevant ensembles, the <b>Amorah</b> (soil). I used to flaunt this number like a golden tower of slexiness around the club and it made a great talking piece for the Burlesque events :/ Sculpts are STILL in style btw.. just saying.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Granted its not technically yellow :(( I'm so so sorry!! Will try to put a more concerted effort for the next one. The ear pieces are the latest offerings from <b>Remarkable Oblivion</b> at this week's <b>SOHO Sample </b>and my hair is from the one and only <b><a href="http://madimage.wordpress.com/madesigns/madesigns-hair/" target="_blank">Maddox DuPont of MADesigns</a></b>. I also chose to wear the <b>Plastik's Astrali|Saturn</b> skin with the complimentary <b>Juna face tatt</b>. I simply am in love with the entire <b>Astrali series </b>and applaud the hard work that was put into it!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Glad you could drop by today, and I'm looking forward to finally getting caught up! Like, really really looking forward to it..with purse in hand... and coffee..treats for us stragglers.</div>
