Like On Vaca, Lets ALL Go

All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn’t hurt. Charles M. Schulz

And I sure do need a little bit of chocolate. It’s that time of year again–chocolates, flowers, and hearts oh my. That’s right, Valentine’s day. is around the corner The grid is alive with events surrounding that special day along with the normal monthly events. And some of them have some amazing and even funny items. You can’t miss Uber, Collabor88, or one of my favorites this month–Cupid Inc.

I want to discuss briefly some of the items in the above photo. The rug game is from Astralia. It’s this really great and playful rug with games, pillows, and animations. It’s also from Cupid Inc. Anxiety made this really cheeky envelope with hair on it called the daunting lover, which is also from Cupid inc. The rose petals are also available at Cupid Inc and the dog house from Half Deer is also available at Cupid Inc..  My outfit is from Uber and by dead dollz. My hair is from doux at their mainstore. I would like to make a quick mention about this hair. The bow is sold separately, as well as the style options. It’s such cute hair. I adore it.

My girl ali is wearing an outfit from Scandalize from Collabor88. The balloons are from nomad, from this past Friday’s Fifty Linden Friday event. My wonderful and fabulous backdrop is from Foxcity. This cute wonderful dog in the dog house is from Collabor88 by black bantom. It is just too cute for words. Whew.. that’s a lot of items.

But, before I go, I want to discuss my picture. It was inspired by Legally Blond. I love that movie. I always thought it was cute and fun. I usually watch movies like that to perk me up and I watch stand up comedy to laugh. I’m always inspired by things that make me smile and/or laugh. I hope you enjoy this picture, as much as I have enjoyed taking it. If you like any of the items featured above, please look below for my credits.

A Bit of Down Time

 

 

 

 

If you are feeling some December blues, or even depression, don’t fight it. Instead, do something for yourself. Be reflective. Let the emotions exist. And be encouraged that, like me, you can get to a better place, but it can take time. Brad Feld

Tomorrow is blue Monday. It’s statistically the saddest day of the year. Be patient with those who are a little bit sadder or struggling. Depression is a hard illness. I was made aware of it by a real life friend. Even during happy times, sometimes people can feel a little bit blue.

Being in a virtual world, I think everyone has come in contact with someone who struggles with depression.  A lot of times, you feel like you want to help, but don’t know how. But yet..sometimes the best thing anyone can do is to just listen. And sometimes people try to hide it. Just being there for people helps a lot.

It’s not an easy thing to go and ask for help. It’s not a sign of weakness. It is a sign of strength though. The reason I bring this up is because this is the time of year people seem to struggle the most. Sometimes you try to smile brighter, be funnier, and hide behind every negative emotion. Yet on the inside, you have a looming cloud of darkness, over shadowing you. It is always okay to ask for help. And you are never alone. So if you are like many out there dealing with depression, please seek help and treatment. Seek out a trusted friend. There is always someone out there willing to listen.

Now that being said, I’d like to talk about this picture. Collabor88 has some really great stuff this round. My robe and lingerie are from Mossu. I absolutely love this entire outfit. My backdrop is from foxcity. And the shelf, robe on a hanger, and bathtub accessories are from foxwood. The backdrop, shelf, robe on the hanger, bathroom accessories, hair and outfit are available at this months Collabor88. My vanity can be purchased at this month’s round at Fameshed. I can not gush enough about these two events. I highly recommend them. And before I forget, my pose is from the latest round of pose fair by Bauhaus Movement. It’s called subtle infestation. I can not rave enough about these products. If you like any of the products above, please check out the pose fair, Collabor88, and Fameshed. As always, my credits can be found below this post.

As always,

Be Kind To One Another,

Cheers,

Violet xoxo
