♥ Chill ♥

I haven't managed to get a good nights sleep at all.. so what do I do in these instances? I blog! I need to learn to chill out a bit more and stop getting myself so stressed, so that's exactly what I did.. took myself off to a pretty sim to chill and get some relaxation time. I wasn't worrying about deadlines or anything, just taking my time. Think we all could do with chilling out from time to time.

Hello Beautiful opened it's doors for it's seventh round today. Lots of fantastic creators all in one space, what's not to love about that?! It's a really awesome theme too, so there's lots of diversity in what has been made and there's something for everyone.

Babysteps have made an awesome hair for this round of Hello Beautiful. It's called "Addyline" It comes with the beret attached and an awesome HUD for the hair (including changing root colour) and you can colour the beret from a few different options. I normally wear blonde hair, so for the majority of my pics I am wearing the blonde one. At the very bottom I have included a pic of one colour from each of the packs though.. they are pretty awesome. From top left to right: Brunettes, Black&White and Dips. From bottom left to right: Ombres, Pastels and Reds. You could even treat yourself to the fatpack if you can't decide which colour pack you like. The hair is easily resizable too with a simple click. No rezzing it on the ground and putting in your own resizer.. or messing around trying to find the HUD button.. just click your hair and you're good to go! I hope this is the first of many hairstyles from Babysteps.

My outfit today is from Heffalumps, it's called "Tilly" - so naturally I gravitated towards it because that's also my mummy's name. I think these little flats from Minuet go so perfectly with it. Usually I'm not the kind to dress as dark as this, but I'm trying to experiment with new styles and stepping out of my comfort zone a little more here and there.

♥ There it goes.. the last crap I gave ♥

So.. this is a bit more rebellious and different from my usual posts. I felt like doing something completely different! 

I am loving this "There it goes... the last crap I gave" sign from Plethora. It's so funny. There's a more adult version of this too, which I really had to stop myself from using! I think I'm just teetering on the edge of offensive with this one.. so I don't want to push my boundaries too far. I might end up in a permanent time out if I did! This sign is perfect too because it's a nice reminder that I need to stop giving a crap about certain things.. I need to be less competitive. I have to try to keep myself grounded and stop getting irritated over little things.. and constantly try to compete with everyone. I'm doing my best and that is all I can do.. there goes the last crap I gave!

This shirt from Heffalumps rocks.. and it's totally free! It's a great punky little belly top.. perfect for my new look I've got going on today. Go check out their awesome freebies and snap up some outfits while you're there!

Don't worry.. this look isn't staying. It was just something different! Anyways.. there goes the last crap I gave.. LOL. I can't stop saying it.. 

Happy shopping everyone! ♥

♥ Boho ♥

Don't you just hate it when you take all your pictures that you wanted and then realise afterwards that the quality wasn't at the level you usually have it! That happened with this set of pictures.. luckily I don't think it notices too badly. I managed to rescue them in the editing process a little. 

Yesterday it was my years engagement anniversary. I can't believe it's been a year since I got engaged. Been 11 years too since we first got together.. time flies so fast! It was a bit boring and lonely since I was on my own yesterday (as he's still away working) but I spent a lot of time watching Netflix in bed to cheer me up.

I did some of my English work last night too. I really thought I was going to breeze through this course and find it so easy.. how wrong was I?! It's really difficult. I just have to say, if anyone that reads this and English isn't your first language - you are awesome. I don't know how you've managed to learn. I'm struggling and it's my first language!

Anyways, this adorable outfit is called "Sarah Boho" and it's from the very awesome Heffalumps. Be sure to check Heffalumps out.. there's lots of cute new stuff coming out! If you want something a little different from the usual ToddleeDoo outfits, then Heffalumps is definitely a place to look.

I am loving these anklets from ToddleTeeZ. They are so cute! I never thought about putting an anklet on my baby avatar before, but it looks great and I love it. See the final picture for a closer look! You can get these at The Sidewalk Gacha right now. What's awesome about these is they size up too for the grownups.. so you can be all matching.

Happy shopping everyone! ♥

♥ Winter Kitty Cutie ♥

It's been a busy few days.. this weekend has been manic and I've hardly been able to be on Second Life at all.. lots of preparing for Christmas in real life. It's been pretty crazy. Luckily I have five minutes and thought I'd blog before I get to wrapping some more presents up.

I absolutely adore this outfit I've put together! So much so that I took three pics to share with you all. I was naughty and spoiled myself with a few things from Turducken and Little Closet. Tis the season of giving.. to myself.. apparently. 
With this adorable look I put on some super cute tights from Lil Big Me, which can be found at this round of Woodlands. These are the RARE kitten tights and they are just purrfect. Find these and other colours at the Woodlands gatcha event.

♥ Bear necessities ♥

Cute bear look I've put together today! It's pretty adorable I think.. 

The look all came together when I put on this adorable cardy top from Minuet. Look at the little bears on it.. and with the hearts all over too.. isn't it just precious? Then I put on these cute little "furbaby" bear ears from Tiny Trinkets.. and that was it, bear look accomplished! Well.. after I grabbed onto an old bear I had from BoOgErS it was anyway.

I'm standing in front of an awesome creative calendar from Plethora. It's a 2015 wall calendar, so you can get a jump start on the year ahead. When you click the panels it changes the texture and there are lots of cool creative designs! I think the one I have shown is my favourite though. It's only 150 lindens too, a bargain when you're getting a calendar that's gonna last a year. It's only 1 land impact too. Other things you might wanna know: 100% mesh, Copy/Mod/NoTrans (script is NoMod)

Collabor88 has opened its doors today.. naturally I went over and took a peek. Not an awful lot for us this time.. although I did pick up a necklace and a new hairstyle.. there's some adorable bunnies there too (that I totally roped my mummy into buying)

♥ Nope ♥

Firstly, sorry I've been slacking on the blogging front the last couple of days. I'm really not feeling too good in real life.. I ended up having to see the doctor (which I had been avoiding at all costs, but I couldn't stand the pain any more) So.. I went.. got a brand spanking new diagnosis to add to all my others.. along with 2 new lots of pills to take. Yay.. (that was sarcasm) These new pills are going to make me sleepy a lot apparently, which will explain why I slept yesterday away.

I am in so much pain with my head so I will try to soldier on and attend to the things I've committed myself to do, but please stick with me while I try to get better. I've been given 3 weeks and then if I'm still not better to go back.. I can't see how I'm going to be better in 3 weeks. I am not convinced on their diagnosis to be honest! 

Anyways, onto less boring things.. like Second Life related things.. like this awesome outfit from Tic Tot Toe aptly named "Nope" which is exactly how I'm feeling right now. It's a cool outfit that seems unisex to me and will fit baby and kid ToddleeDoo's. I am loving the hat in particular, which isn't something I normally say. The sneakers are cute too - with little wings on them! ♥

I am looking forward to Christmas.. getting excited about it already. I know I'm a little early, but I can't help it! I'm also looking forward to seeing what events in Second Life come up.. I bet it's going to be a cracker! See what I did there? Cracker? Christmas cracker? Nevermind.. lol

♥ My lullaby, hung out to dry.. ♥

Wow, third and last post of the day.. can't believe I've managed it despite still having a killer headache, but I refuse to let it stop me from doing things I love.. like blogging. It's put things I love on the back burner for too long already.. so.. uh.. I just found some random anti-biotics I had kicking around from the beginning of last year and took one, just in case my headaches are caused by some kind of infection. I know, I know, but I was desperate! Here's hoping they fix me.

Anyways, I love this pretty floral dress and tights set from Little Nerds, it's so girly and cute. It comes with both sizes of ToddleeDoo dresses and a HUD, of course, for the tights. I'm all over any excuse to be extra girly... it's funny because one minute I'm totally a tomboy with cuts and unisex clothing on and the next I'm cooing over something pink and frilly. I guess that's something that I enjoy, I don't have a set style and am willing to try out anything.. it's fun to play with looks. 

I love this song by Natalie Imbruglia (that I've linked to at the end of this post).. it was in my head while I took this picture and it reminds me of times past and the emotions I was feeling when I first encountered this song. Not necessarily good emotions, might I add.. but it does makes me remember the vulnerability I had at the time. It's good to stir up past emotions sometimes and songs can provoke memories and be quite powerful I find. 

A lot of songs I can tie to a particular event or moment in my life.. it's weird how that happens. It's like one song "Red Alert" by Basement Jaxx will forever remind me of being on a ride at a funfair terrified out of my mind. I was just a terrified 13 year old with 3 other friends of similar age and we were in this cage, rocking it back and forth trying to get it to go over the bar. Hard to explain how the ride was.. but it was terrifying that it was going to go upside down with us in it and that was the object of the ride.. to all push it to go over! My friends were all trying hard to make it go over, me being the wuss of the group didn't want it to.. so wasn't trying as hard. Anyways.. that song was blasting out at the time and now whenever I hear it I'm transported back into that cage (in my mind) and I re-live the terror all over again. -Shudders- It's a good tune though!

Right, I'm off to watch some more Netflix.. I think I've worked hard enough today and deserve a break. Thanks for reading my rambles, you all rock! ♥

♥ Peace, Love and Flip Flops ♥

I'm back! Sorry I've not been around.. but I had a 3 day (almost 4 day) migraine from hell which stopped me doing pretty much everything I enjoy. I spent a lot of time in bed with my eyes shut.. and when I wasn't sleeping I was pretty much bored. Yesterday I started watching old episodes of "Malcolm in the middle" on Netflix because boredom had gotten to me so badly from not doing anything. I actually killed the first season in a day.. hurrah boredom. Was funny to see Bryan Cranston pre Breaking Bad..

Anyways, I'm wearing an outfit from Soken Kids today. A shirt and shorts combo that seems to go super awesomely together. I stole my blog title from what is written on the shirt too.. because that's how original I am sometimes. I love the funky colours and the hippy-vibe of the whole ensemble. 

Naturally the epic bubble pipes from Tic Tot Toe had to get another viewing.. this time I'm wearing the pink one. You can grab your own bubble pipes from "Bro I Gatcha" so many colours to collect and some super cool rares.

So, now I'll be blogging more again.. apologies to anyone that was waiting on me. Hopefully now I feel better I will be able to churn out more posts.

♥ I'm gonna pop some tags ♥

Got two pics in this post today.. featuring two cute outfits from Enchanted Bowtique. They are both cute and snuggly.. and they fit both baby and kid ToddleeDoo's, which is always a bonus! I grabbed Damon to pose with me for these cute pics.. it's so hard to find people when I need them to be on! As always, full credits can be found at the end of the post.

In the first picture, I'm wearing "Zee" from Enchanted Bowtique and Damon is rocking an outfit from LTT. In the second picture he's wearing an epic freebie from Geek's that you can find on the Halloween Heist. If you've not done it, you still have time! Some awesome freebies to be grabbed at the end. I'm wearing another outfit from Enchanted Bowtique called, "Yuna"

Oh and the song "Thrift Shop" which my title is taken from.. is awesome. I've liked the song for ages, but I only watched the video today.. and that's why it's featured in this post.. purely because the video made me laugh. If you've not seen the video then you can find it at the end of the post, yep I know I make everything so effortless. ♥

It's half midnight here in the UK as I write this post and weirdly it doesn't feel like it's that time at all.. it feels a lot earlier. The clocks going back has messed up my internal clock a little, it's not sure what is going on.. but that's okay, I never know what's going on either! lol

♥ All wrapped up ♥

Today I'm wearing an adorable outfit from Lil Big Me. It fits baby and kid ToddleeDoo avatars and is really cute and perfect for this time of year. I love the scarf and headband in particular.. which is weird for me since I'm not usually a huge fan of headbands (mostly because I can never get them to fit my head right some of them) but this one just goes perfectly with my cute pigtails hairstyle from Chemistry. It's new to my inventory, but it's not a new style.. I'm a bit of a late comer to it. I love the hair but I hate how bad it is for poses.. every single pose I own my hair went into my body at least a little bit.. enough for me to not use any for this picture and just use my ao (which tilts forward a little so I don't have the hair in body issue)

Warning I feel a unrelated rant coming on.. anyways, earlier on there was a region restart on our land and in my panic I tped to the place I was last, which just happened to be Olive (the hair store) I was standing around there and three avatars tped in behind me and one of them asked me, "Didn't your parents teach you not to sit on train tracks?" cos there's train tracks where you land.. so I just say, "No.." cos well.. it's not really a conversation I've had with my mother. Then she quips back, "Didn't she teach you not to talk to strangers either?" Dear god, what does this woman want from me! I was just standing there minding my own business.. if I didn't reply I would have been seen as rude, but even replying was apparently the wrong thing to do. Then the other one declared, "Eww! Omg it has chicken legs!" (I'm just going to assume I might have looked stretched to her) Anyway, to conclude.. adults are rude idiots sometimes and I wish they'd leave me alone. Yes, I'm a child avatar.. fascinating stuff, isn't it? Get over it. You don't like kid avatars.. I don't like your huge arse and massive thigh gap which looks totally wrong with thighs that could crush watermelons teetering on stilettos.. but yet, I don't say anything to you. Why? Because that ugliness is your business.. same as being a child avatar is my business. I bet they'd never have even bothered speaking to me if they were on their own.. but three ladies together equals bitch fest and it's a lot easier to think you're being funny in a group.  So, grownups when you think you're being cute by talking to me and then belittling me in public with other grownups to back you up.. stop a sec and think, would you like it if it happened to you? I doubt it. Just because you are technically anonymous on Second Life does not give you the right to be horrible. I'm aware I was horrible here.. and two wrongs don't make a right and all that jazz.. but I was mad.

♥ Beary Awesome ♥

Check out this adorable outfit from Heffalumps. I love it, just so cute! It comes with the sweater and shorts set, copper bracelet, copper bangle, bobble hat, socks HUD and boots. It fits ToddleeDoo baby avatars. I love the little bear on the sweater, he's so sweet.. and not only that but it's textured really well. 

Still wearing the Little Rose skin from Little Nerds, it's so cute and very baby like (at least I think so) it goes really well with my baby teeth too. 

I'm posing with an old bear I got from Birdy/Alchemy and my very first mesh creation (the bear) he's a bit nooby but I'm still super proud of him.

♥ I ♥ October ♥

October is pretty awesome.. and what better way to show your love of October than this cute shirt from Minuet (found at Woodland Treasures Gatcha this month) There are lots of different versions to collect which all say something adorable on them, this one is my personal fave though.

I teamed the shirt with floral pants from Turducken and these super cute rigged snow boots from Snowflake Designs.

Picked up this hair from LaViere and while it's not a new style, it is new to my inventory.. it's pretty cute and has a resize script in it. Love it.

This is my last post of the day, I promise! ♥

♥ If I die before I wake.. at least in heaven I can skate ♥

*Warning real life drivel and icky insect chat - skip the first two paragraphs for all the outfit information*

So, I'm laying in bed after having watched a movie (Bad Neighbours in case anyone cared as to what movie it was) anyways, so I'm laying there trying to sleep and in the glow of my laptop screen I can see something flying towards me.. suddenly I'm attacked by a giant crane fly! I shriek and jump out of bed.. which I immediately regret because of my broken toe. After swearing for a few minutes I hop out of the room and grab my cat.. who then hunts down the crane fly and eats it. Good boy. I love my cat.. he eats bugs, it's great. Crane flies are his fave, followed by moths.. he eats spiders too but only the smaller ones. So, now he's on the bed with me on the look out for a moth.. just before eating the crane fly he was chasing a moth around and it got away..

Anyways, bottom line of that story was.. now I'm super freaked out and can't sleep, so I decided to blog. I hate all kinds of insects.. it was bad enough yesterday when I was playing Family Guy on my tablet and suddenly a massive spider comes from around the back of the tablet and puts one of its legs on the screen! I shout and drop it immediately.. goodness knows how long I'd been holding it while that thing had been just chilling on it, I dread to think.. and since I'm a total wuss and dropped it, I have no idea where the spider is now.. hopefully my cat has eaten it. 

Now I got that drama out of the way onto the outfit! I'm rocking a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles look today.. specifically, the character, Leonardo. This look is from SprinklyWinks and made up of items you can grab from the Bro I Gatcha event. You can even get the skateboard, which rocks.. I love the animation in it. You can either get this version (which is rideable and dinky in size) or one that isn't rideable and is meant for decoration.

I finished off my look with some turtle related accessories, including this epic Turtle Backpack from Tic Tot Toe. It really looks like a proper shell and it has a resize script in it so you can make it as big or small as you like. Cowabunga!

♥ The Streets ♥

Third blog post of the night.. I'm on a roll! 

I feel very urban with this look.. so I felt like I needed to hit some rough looking street to showcase this look. I found this place via someone elses blog.. it's so hard to find good locations to take pictures at (especially without someone walking into your shot.. either by accident or on purpose.. it's really irritating!) My sister is a pro at walking into my shot by accident.. lol. I can almost guarantee now if I'm taking pictures and she comes online, she'll walk into my shot.. I just wait for it to happen now. lol

Anyways, the shirt I'm wearing is from ToddleeDudes, it's from their gatcha at Bro I Gatcha event... this particular one is called "Floral Brooklyn Nets Jersey" and it's a rare.. so you might have to play a few times to get it. Unless you are lucky like my daddy and get the rare pretty much first time. There are lots of variations for you to grab though.

The hat and under eye tape I'm rocking are from Geek's and they just complete this look I think. You can find them both at Bro I Gatcha event too! I actually really love the eye tape, it looks like bacon up close and has a little face on it. The hat is a forward facing cap and is textured to look like outer space.. very cool. Be sure to check out Geek's gatchas.

My anteater is from Mutresse and I just adore him.. the wearable version rocks so much. He walks as you walk and even when you're just standing still he moves. Epic. You can grab different ones at this round of The Arcade. I might have to get another one, as I only got the one.. and he rocks so hard. ♥

♥ Get your skates on ♥

And that's exactly what I've told myself, "get your skates on!" 

I'm really sorry I've been seriously slacking on the blogging front.. when real life gets a bit crazy it seems I struggle to fit in everything I want to do. Luckily from today it should be more relaxed again for a bit and working on my own schedule, rather than beating to the drum of someone else and trying to make my life fit around theirs. 

Anyways, so get my skates on I have.. not only figuratively, but, literally in fact. 

In this picture I'm rocking an awesome skate shirt from the epic Soken Kids. It seemed rather fitting considering the location I went to.. I'm being a bit of a rebel though, leaving my board at home and opting for skates. The cargo mini shorts are also from Soken Kids and I really dig the texture work on them! They also have checkered underwear peeking over the waistband too and a very realistic looking belt, sadly both hidden by my shirt. The pockets have awesome detail on them too.. if you didn't get it by now, I really love these shorts. 

My skates are from Snips & Snails. I wore them in my last post but in a different colour.. these ones are much like the ones I remember having in real life, colour wise I mean. I think mine were by Fisher Price though.

I've been over to Kustom9 tonight, which is why I have a panda on my head, a backpack and a radio. The panda is from offbeat and is just adorable the way it's holding the cheese like that.. totally resizable too with a simple click. The backpack is from LAYOVER and fits us perfectly.. in a few simple clicks I got it to the right size without much fuss too.

Now I have to mention this radio from floorplan.. I almost didn't give it a glance when I was at Kustom9.. saw it and in my head I went, "Radio.. boring.. for grownups.. just a decorative piece probably" but how wrong was I?! Luckily for me I was on voice with my mummy and she and my sister were both with me shopping too and my mummy goes on voice, "Scripted?" and I was like, "Huh?" and she goes, "The radios.." and I went, "REALLY?!" and immediately zoomed in on the gatcha and the rest was history. I LOVE it! I got home, wore it and copied and pasted my fave choon from youtube at the moment and slapped it into the pop up box.. and then was amazed as I could walk around blasting out my jam over the media channel. Loves it. ♥

♥ Looking Out ♥

I've not blogged Lil Big Me in a while and remembered I had this outfit in my inventory and hadn't worn it yet, so I broke it out to show you. I think it's really cute! 

I love how this picture came out with the shadows.. I added a lens flare (which I am guilty of over-using in the past) but I think it goes really good in this picture.

♥ Paint a smile on ♥

Last day of Woodland Treasures Gatcha, so grab your goodies now.. including these awesome gamer typers from Tic Tot Toe. I'm holding up the black version, but there's tons of different ones to collect.

I haven't blogged Baby Pie for a while and although this is an older outfit and I've blogged the purple one of this before, I felt in the mood for something black.. so I broke this one out of my inventory. There's not a huge amount of dark coloured clothing for kids around.. and it's hard to do it well without it looking too grownup I think.. but Baby Pie does an awesome job of keeping it child friendly and dark. Love it.

My title is called "Paint a smile on" today.. because I painted the gym room in real life yesterday.. and the fact that I sometimes feel you have to pretend you're okay, when you're really not. I spend most of my life pretending that everything is fine. How many times do people ask how you are..? If everyone really told the other person, nobody would ever ask that question again. I find myself going, "Good thank you!" even if I'm sitting at my laptop in floods of tears.. nobody really wants to hear how everything sucks. The very few people that do genuinely want to know if everything is okay are the ones you want to stay strong for too.. I feel like a broken record when things aren't okay and I end up saying they're fine in the end so I don't bore my nearest and dearest to death going over the same old problems that aren't getting any better.

In other news I'm getting excited about The Arcade.. although my bank balance will not be!
