50 Shades of Sexy Round Up!!

   Talk about out of breath and out of mind! You fashion bloggers out there have your work cut out for you, I admire your tenacity to stick to it! While I yet toss around the notion that this is anything but a fashion blog, I must conclude, that it is slowly morphing into a bit of everything I enjoy on Second Life, be it fashion, great content creation, events, causes, classes, horses and oh yes, the Second Life experience itself.

   I often tell my friends irl that immersing 'socialization' in a virtual environment can oft be a two edged sword. Tip to the extreme on either side and we can 'rent' our own well being into shreds. So kids, balance is the word of the day, eh? Now how about, lingerie? Better word me thinks!

   Tonight is the night ladies and gentlefolk, for the official 50 Shades of Sexy event at the Library. You can read more about it here to get the full picture and .. pictures! Thank you to Shiloh Selene and to the Library as well for putting this event together! Can't wait to see who's there, who's wearing whom, and who's wearing on whom neither :-)  After all, how can a sane man (or woman) not enjoy an event where Lingerie is the topic of the evening?

Week 4- Pour Some Sugar On Me

If you look closely you'll see a bit of PS magic from the original Def Leppard image. The pose isn't great, but I have a subliminal message of my own :P

Week 5- Bad Romance

   Week five's prompt reminded me of my ventures into the BDSM community on the grid, not so long ago. Long story short and summed up into a nice, tidy sentence, however! "You can always ask for forgiveness later!". All teasing aside, I have my experiences and misadventures from time to time on the grid, as much do we all, but 'Bad Romances', both RL and virtual, should teach us some basic lessons in life: 

1. Good lingerie you can keep forever 

2. Learn from our mistakes

3. Wash, rinse and repeat does not apply 

4. A quality riding crop cures all ills.

  Continuing to showcase Lumi's taste lingerie is a genuine treat. This outfit is called Temptation and I remember when it first came out, she helped me personally with the prim piece for the skirt. (insert newb fashion blabbering here, so sorry :/) P

  Prim skirts and I have never gotten along and Lumi was very patient until we got it fit just right. Again, her textures are unique and even without the garter layer, I've worn this as a mini dress to many occasions (sans the horse whip). Do visit taste's main location to take a peek at the rest of her creations!

One Billion Rising in Second Life

   Thanks to the collective efforts of residents on Second Life, One Billion Rising will commence tomorrow, February 14th. Here is a brief description from the OBR blog:

"ONE BILLION RISING began as a call to action based on the staggering statistic that 1 in 3 women on the planet will be beaten or raped during her lifetime. With the world population at 7 billion, this adds up to more than ONE BILLION WOMEN AND GIRLS. On February 14, 2013, men and women in Second Life will join activists, writers, thinkers, celebrities, and people across the world to Walk, Dance, and Rise as a show of unity, individual strength, and the need for change."

   1 in 3 women is one too many don't you think? The folks at OBR SL are not asking for donations out right. Just a time to come together, in mutual support and to raise awareness.

   Every one of us has a story to tell, scars to bare, and words of encouragement to share, why not take the time to put aside the cynicism for one day, and open your heart and mind...(you can keep the wallets and purses at home today kids if you like)

Take any of the Limos and bring a friend! Many thanks to Ms. Strawberry Singh for sharing this event through her website. Make it a habit to stop by there if you haven't bookmarked her yet!

Midnight Collabor88 Rush and PSE Texture fun..

   The whole fashion blogging world is quite foreign to me, but oh so fun even for a newcomer. Collabor88's February Round is underway and I happily joined the throngs for the Midnight Rush. It was well worth it to see Designers, Bloggers and Shopoholics alike make it through jello-esque lag to get first dibs on this month's offerings...

   Closing out this post, I leave you with an Obscene Not For Profit Time Out (or end rather).

   

   Climbing the SL Photography Curve has been a struggle for me if it were not for the SL Community at large, especially those who make Koinup.com their Social Photo Sharing home. Very supportive to new picture/edit taker-ers, and not to mention some of the greatest artistic talent I've seen on the grid. Do visit sometime, and be sure to drink in Second Life like you've never seen before!

Pay Forward

Humble Beginnings- Another chapter finished, and onto a fresh new page...

If hindsight is 20/20, then I have a lot of vetting to do.
