Long weekend -- Big Inventory

I spent 2 hours today organizing my [LAP] poses. I have hundreds both male and female and I picked up a few sets and props I didn't already have at the L$50 sale. I also updated my Tillie pose stand and HUD and she has added some really cool features. So after 2 hours of work/play I have two stuffed pose stands, one female and one male. I spent some time trying to understand the sets feature of the HUD but it didn't quite work the way I expected. But, even if I have to configure the notecard by hand, it is a great feature. That's on my to do list.

I learned about the Equus sale from Arabella and the dresses she showed looked so cute I had to check them out.

And I found this cool Textgasm HUD on XStreet today. Finally I won't be the most boring person chatting in a club!

I tried to catch some of the sales today. I couldn't get in to the fri.day sim for that sale but I did head over to Zaara and picked up some cute stuff. The bangles I am wearing in this photo, for instance. I also got the Kelly deck shoes from A-bomb. I have to thank Anastasia Trefusis from Dress Up Dolls for reminding me about the sales and suggesting these shoes. They are color change so very flexible.

I am also wearing one of LeLutka's newly released hats. I have Lillie B. from brinksie to thank for it. I also stole her idea of wearing the AOHARU knotted shirt with it. I will be going to a pool party later today and I put this outfit together with water and sun in mind.

Beginning again

I haven't written words here in a very long time. I feel myself wanting to blog again but overwhelmed and full of fear about how much work it is and whether I want to make such a commitment... I guess it really boils down to fear of failure, fear of not doing a good enough job. I decided to let go of all those expectations and just post when I feel like it without much pressure or planning and see how it goes. This may be a beginning, a first post that leads to many more. Or, it may just be a one time lark that I will quickly forget. Either way it doesn't matter. I vow not to berate myself no matter how this turns out.

New scarves

I just picked up the fatpack of colorful scarves at Decoy after seeing Ana Lutetia wear one in her recent post. Been a long morning photographing some of Bryn Oh's sculptures and posting pics at flickr and KoiNUP. So I am resting. :)
