Shameless Dreams

 

I am not your innocent wonderland… quote by me.

I’d like to give a shout out to all my amazing followers. I hit 4K a few weeks ago. I am truly astonished at how many people follow my work. I can say that I appreciate every like, follow, and award. Truly.. amazing beautiful wonderful and great… I can’t express my gratitude or express how humbled I am. thank you all again ♥♥♥♥

This photoshoot was inspired by a book that I’m currently reading, and music videos listed below. And a peak into that devilish mind of mine…

I am not your innocent wonderland. My dreams are shameless and delicious. Splayed out in a dream there were no limits. Butterflies flew. Only a touch of innocence among flesh. Naked, hungry, and waiting….

🙂 ♥
Stay dirty my friends. And thanks again.

Okay so I have been MIA. My birthday was this month and my friends decided to give me a few surprises, since I had an incredibly rough year. It was a welcomed break, during a tough time. I am grateful for friends and family in all worlds.

Sooooo lets get into the deep discussion that is my picture, just kidding it’s not that serious. Collabor88’s theme this month is dreams. At first I was totally at a loss for ideas, but I dug deep for some inspiration and looked at everything those wonderful designers out there created. I couldn’t help feeling like a naughty alice in wonderland with a hint of innocence. There are so so many designers in this picture. Instead of listing all of them in here.. in this paragraph, I will list them down below. The eccentric work leads to the craving for halloween and all things creative. I have to say.. I was loving this round. It was out of the box and a little different. It got my own creative juices flowing in the end. Everything in this photo is from Collabor88.. right down to my hair.

I won’t go into a big long blog post, but I will get into the credits. Sleep awaits me soon. My pillow is screaming at me

Be Kind To One Another

Cheers,

Violet xoxo

Fall From Grace

 

 

 

By that sin fell the angels. William Shakespeare

 

There are so many wonderful events all coming out right now. I’ve been a busy bee lately, setting up this wonderful set and having a lot of fun. So I’m not going to procrastinate… I  will get into what everyone wants to know… where did you get xyz.

My whole set, except for the pose is from one of my favorite events in August.. You guessed it. Collabor88’s birthday bash. I love love love this event. I really can’t gush about it enough. As I write this, I still have things to buy from this event–that is just how good it is this round. There are many many many items in this photos, so I’m going to leave it to the credits. If you see something that you just have to have, please look at my credits down below.

This blog is a little short. But I’m getting in the swing of things. And I have another event to talk about.. which is the wonderful hair fair. It opened and … I have some hair from a not so well known company or maybe it wasn’t well known to me :). But I am really excited to share with you my latest haul. As you guessed already, I’ve got some more wonderful items from Collabor88 to share with you and even a steamy pose from this latest round of pose fair. I want to say the theme of stardust may be one of my favorite themes so far with all the birthday bashes. I bought a lot of stuff from this Collabor88 round. It’s really a wonderful round, if you get a chance, check it out with a friend.

I want to take a brief moment and talk about this photo. I’m a big fan of the show Lucifer. Okay I’m totally addicted to it. I may have bought some books that have similar characters. Anyway…. when I saw these really these gorgeous wings from Yokai.. I bought them right away and knew exactly what I was going to do with them. And I saw this quote and new that it was perfect. Hopefully, you find a little bit of sinfulness at pose fair, but that’s for another blog and for another time.

Woman like me

 

“The woman who follows the crowd will usually go no further than the crowd. The woman who walks alone is likely to find herself in places no one has ever been before.” – Albert Einstein

 

So I’m going to make this blog a little short, since it is really early or late–depending on your perception of things. I will say this picture has me craving pizza like crazy. Thank you baguette for making the perfect virtual pizza. I think there may be a pizza in my future that is for sure.

So, I find myself a bit lonely lately, but that’s only because my schedule is very wacky at the moment. I am alone quite a bit, but I know that it will change soon–thankfully. So feeling that loneliness led me to the Einstein quote. It’s good to remind yourself that being alone is a good thing. Also I find that second life can be feast or famine sometimes. There are times where there is a ton of people to talk to and then.. sometimes the world seems a bit quiet. Feeling that I came across the quote and song (both can be found on flickr).

Moving right along to all those wonderful creations in the above picture. Most of the items in the above pick are from Collabor88 and the epiphany–both close soon. The new round of Collabor88 starts on the 8th and the epiphany closes soon. I will have to get back to you on closing dates, after I wake up :). So without further ado, please look down below for credits.

Before I end with my credits, I know there has been so much tragedy in the US. I’m thinking of the families and the people who were senselessly killed by a shooter with no regard to life. This life is so precious and it’s sad that individuals feel as though they need to selfishly take it away. There is not enough love in the world. There’s not enough respect for life. Despite the tragedies, I will always have faith that things will change.. and one day there will be no mass shootings. Look for further posts in the future for charities to help the survivors. Keep them in your in hearts, thoughts, and prayers. ♥

Please  be kind to one another.

Cheers,

Violet xoxo ♥

Melting in the Heat

click image to see enlarged picture

Animals are such agreeable friends – they ask no questions; they pass no criticisms. George Eliot

Whew, it is HAWT outside. I truly believe that.. if i could have melted… I probably would have this past week. It seems we are all feeling the heat. The weather totally knocked me out last week. The temperatures lowered. And I feel like a person again…not on fire. This past week, I felt pretty miserable from the heat like so many. Thankfully, in my real life, my animals kept me really great company. I was incredibly lucky to have them. So my pets kind of inspired this picture–chilling with ice cream and my best friend by my side. Animals are awesome like that.

Which leads me to the next topic, the adorable wolf, decor, and fantastic summer clothes, I must talk about it all. There are a TON of items in this picture. As I was writing down all my credits in a notecard, I realized that… I may just need to mention briefly the events. Most of the items featured above are from Collabor88 and the latest round at the Epiphany. I have to say.. I really adore this outfit. I don’t want to take it off. This cute little romper by Aleutia, hair from monso, earrings from Max Gossamer, glasses by fetch are all from Collabor88. My decor comes from so many wonderful companies: Ice cream and inner tube from Dahlia, cat bag and gun from Tentacio, gloves from foxwood, and way too many to list in this paragraph. You really will have to check out my credits down below. I really shopped till I dropped.

As I melted from heat in real life, I really just wanted to be by the beach with an ice cream cone, a water gun.. and may be a furry friend by my side. July has been the month where I haven’t been online much. I am going to have more time, since some things in my real life have slowed down. I had family that had an adoption go through. So I’ve spent some nights talking to family and sharing pictures of the little guy. We’re all thrilled. But now, I can sit down relax and kind of get into the groove of blogging again. If you like any of my items featured above, please check out my credits.

As always, be kind to one another.

Cheers,

Violet XOXO

We had gay burglars the other night. They broke in and rearranged the furniture. Robin Williams

 

It feels like forever since I wrote my last blog. But here I am, and I am about to talk about one of my favorite events.. Collabor88. Yup, it’s about to come to a close, so you’ll have to hurry to get these items.

This round was one of my favorite rounds. I have a special place in my heart for the desert. Everything this round reminded me of a trip to Nevada that I took.. very long ago. It was the first time.. I went camping. It was the first time that I paddled out to the middle of a lake in a boat. And I got to see the Grand Canyon. And.. it was my first time going to a Native American Reservation. I had a lot of good memories from that trip. Everyone cherishes a memory. That’s just one of mine.

So I have a special place in my heart for events reminding me of this time. Collabor88 closes soon, so you’ll have to get your desert gear before the new round begins. The new round begins on the 8th. You will definitely have to hurry, if you like any of these items. This picture includes so many great second life companies: Phedora, Zenith, Monso, Minimal, Disorderly, Yokai, Half Deer, Random Matter, Kalopsia, and Jian. Whew, there’s a lot of companies in this picture. They all did a fantastic job though. And just look at those adorable puppies. I have ALWAYS wanted a lab, so this purchase was so easy to make. I will probably rez them all the time at my house. They are too cute for words. Also The Arcade just opened. This cute cat playing with a cherry from an ice cream cone is from DISORDERLY. from a gacha machine at The Arcade. I absolutely love it. All these cute little animals makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.

I was talking to a friend inworld. She helped me to remember going to a reservation and feeling an intense calm wash over me. It’s just not something you forget. Then you add this round of collabor88 (which is about to close), it put a smile on my face.. that is for sure. The bright colors, bohemian treasures, wonderful furniture, and cute adorable animals, truly they are worth checking out before the new round begins. If you haven’t gone, please go before it closes. Don’t miss out.. think of this as last call .. like in a bar, but for an event. There were just so many great products this round. Hurry and pick up those last few items.

Normally, I have a serious, thoughtful and insightful quote. I opted for a silly quote from one of my favorite comedians instead… may he rest in peace. Sometimes you just need a little humor in your life. And I definitely need a good laugh. Who doesn’t? Funny moments and happy memories are truly the great parts of life.

You will have to look down below for credits. I hope you all see something that reminds you of a happy memory or find something that makes you laugh.

Be Kind To One Another

cheers,

Violet XOXO

Rebellious Nights

 

Kindness is the language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see. Mark Twain

This month, there have been so many wonderful events–Kustom9, Sultry, romp, and A+. I have been so busy this month, buying a ton of furniture and not so innocent clothing. It took me a little while, but after all that shopping.. this picture was possible. I’ve had a lot of fun shopping this month.

Because so many of these items are new, I decided to jump right into all of the new shiny things available. My rug is available at Sultry and by Merak. My lounge chair is from sultry and by Krescendo. The regular chair is also by Krescendo, but at A+. My pose is by Amite and also available at A+. I also bought the Shibari case from Sultry from unKindness. The socks and male underwear are from Half Deer and are also available at Sultry. My hair is from Limerance and you can find it at this month’s round at romp. And my shoes are also from romp and by Miss Chelsea.Finally, my gorgeous lingerie is from the incredibly talented Eliavah. She created this hot number for Kustom9. I really adore these items and the color pallet together. I may have to steal it for my own real life home. Whew.. that’s a lot of items from a ton of events. I picked up these pillows from foxcity. They were a group gift awhile ago. I believe that they are no longer available–although I could be wrong. Please check the mainstore. I’ll provide a link below.

Sometimes when I shop, I will see something and wait a little while to buy it. Then, when I find something that matches it, I buy it. I do tend to wait a little while to see what is available and how things will fit together. It takes me a little time to put the idea together for pictures, but I’m so glad that I waited. All of these pieces work very well together. And I have to admit that hair from Limerance may be one of my favorites. It’s curly and a bit wild–and a little out of control–and feminine. It’s the makings of some great hair.It’s also tintable. I’ll be sure to use all of these pieces in my home.

Finally, I always try to talk about second life. I’ve been a little jaded lately. I had a good friend remind me that not all people will like you and that sometimes… that is not a bad thing. I think everyone has at one time or another not felt included, or left out. The beautiful thing about second life …and even in real life, there are so many people out there in the world. And if you start to feel like that, just remind yourself that the world keeps spinning. Tomorrow is a new day. And you’ll find your place. Try to stay positive out there in the world residents. There’s always a brighter day ahead.

Be Kind To One Another,

Cheers

Violet XOXO

Sweet Dreams

 

 

A heart without dreams is like a bird without feathers. Suzy Kassem

I have been really busy this past week in all worlds. I’ve taken pictures and built sets. And I finally get that moment to really sit down and think about this blog post. As soon as, I saw the backdrop from foxcity at Collabor88, I knew right away that I would make a dreamy post with sweet treats. So I really have looked forward to this post.

Normally on Valentine’s day, I send out photos ..a valentine’s day card. But this year, I indulged in sweet treats in real life, savoring each wonderful bite and I really did just enjoy the day. Instead, I opted for a delectable treats and a day of rest instead.

I love valentine’s day and wanted to do a month of sweet dreamy posts. I wanted to get lost in the moment of happiness. And maybe make a post inspired by legally blond. I love that movie. And I would be lying, if I said that movie wasn’t my muse. It totally was. There’s a scene where Elle Woods is sitting in her bed eating chocolate, after a break up. I think many people have gone through that upset. For some reason, second life seemed to curse a lot of my friends this past month. And that scene is one that always comes to mind, when I think of break ups–maybe because I’ve been there before. Who hasn’t?

This month has been nothing of love and hearts inworld for me personally, but in my dreams..and my pictures it was sweet sailing. So I let my love of all things sweet inspire me and a scene covered in pink–despite the sadness. I think even in that scene.. one can see the hope. Her friends coming to pull her out of her funk. Second life can be like that…so much. We go through a hard break with a friend, significant other, partner, etc, and we get Elle Woods in that moment. But it’s nice to see the hope through our friends.

What made my valentine’s day sweet inworld? It was my friends saying things that I needed to hear… not what I wanted to hear. It was the people who surrounded me in all things pink and reminded me that mistakes don’t define you. Anger is only temporary. And there are moments of calm. So maybe you have been touched by the second life Valentine’s Day curse. This post is for you my friend. I’m here to say, this too shall pass. Keep dreaming sweet things. Maybe indulge in something sweet in real life. If you can’t have that sweet treat in real life, maybe opt for something that you love to do instead. Whatever you do, just make sure to do something that makes you smile. And remember forgiveness is important, not for the other person, but for yourself. Holding on to anger and resentment only hurts us that much more in the end.

I came to the conclusion of what to write by a show called One Day At A Time. It’s about a Latino family living in Los Angeles, with all of its ups and downs of life. In one of the episodes, there was a woman struggling with anxiety. Recently, I’ve dealt with my own anxiety, during bad moments of pain. It can be scary and hard, especially when you can’t breath. But it was in that moment, I realized the importance of second life being a calm place. This isn’t a space where I want to be angry at anyone. My body makes me angry enough. This isn’t the place for it. And in that, I found forgiveness. I forgave anyone in that moment, because anger no longer served me. I can only hope that moment of clarity comes to others. It’s a gift. And if you seek a peaceful second life, it all starts within.

Before I end this blog post, I want to go into my fabulous outfit. My shirt, cardigan, skirt, and shoes are all by the fantastic Eliavah. She has really out done herself with this outfit. The texture and colors are so pretty. I felt soft and feminine. I just want to go out in the town and party the night away in this outfit. My skirt, cardigan, and shirt are available at Collabor88 and my shoes are for purchase at Equal10. Various pieces of my decor can be found at Collabor88. For more details, please check out my credits below.

Sleep Over

 

Capt. Crewe:
“You can be anything you want to be, my love, as long as you believe.”

I have always loved the movie A Little Princess.. the version made in the nineties. Some of the most beautiful scenes are in that movie. I loved the story about a girl having a wild imagination. It’s such a lovely thing to live in a world of imagination and magic. There’s just something about that story that I love. For me, this quote means a lot to me. It gives a certain kind of hope. And I like books and movies that promote hope. If we lose hope, we lose the possibility of making those dreams and beliefs true. Hope drives us to go after goals. It inspires us to try. When we try…is when we truly live. So never give up hope.

As I saw ads for the epiphany, I knew right away what I wanted to do. I’m really excited to do this photo. It’s kind of my take on a sleep over with all things pretty. I probably would set this scene up in my house, if I had the money for all those flowers. Hey flowers are expensive!! But thankfully, it’s much easier to make this in second life.

I really want to thank everyone for making such cute things. I have to thank Eliavah for making this truly fantastic outfit. This is hawt and I love it. I like the ruffles at the top of the shirt, the color, and the fit. It made me feel extremely girly. Eliavah is selling this outfit at the epiphany. So you too can take a chance on her gacha. Kalopsia is selling the Cleo set–the pink lamp and mirror at collabor88. Lamb made this great hair which is also available at collabor88. Disorderly created cozy piles which is available at collabor88 as well. You can see it in front of my tent.. the cookies and magazines. It is all linked together. I absolutely adore it. The laundry basket is from tarte and can be found at a new event called soiree. Soiree is a new event and an extension of Collabor88. I bought so many things at the epiphany. I could go on and on about all of these really great events… but my credits list says it all. Please stop by Collabor88, FaMESHED, Soiree, and the epiphany. There are some truly great events on the grid. Don’t miss out.. tp and bring a friend with you.

I’m ending my post a little early. I have so many credits from this wonderful photo and I want it to be the center of this post. I hope my follows have fun shopping this month at some wonderful events.

As always, Be Kind To One Another,

Cheers,

violet xoxo
