So I’m still liking yellow, and today I went all out with poppy colours and styling.  This outfit made me feel really happy and bouncy.  :)

So I really had lots to do today, but as usual I started procrastinating and did the SL equivalent of random doodling by trying out different stuff from my Inventory.  Soon I was zipping around the grid picking up new stuff that would go with the old stuff… and the next thing I knew, I had a new look!

So I came in-world today with the idea of putting together a look for the Oscars tomorrow… needless to say I suffered a major FAIL.  I tried, I really did, but the truth is I S.U.C.K. at formal styling! After shifting through one beautiful gown after the other, my inner all-defying, five-year old came out to play and insisted I do the opposite of formal. And here we are, rock girl.

I’m still in full-on girly mode and today I went all-out with the piiiink!  I ended up with lots of pink layers, heavy-duty silver jewellery and big hair!  It needs to be noted that I’m still loving, and wearing, the Pro Spec trainers and bustier from my last look, albeit in different colours.

Enough of kick-ass and functional looks — I’m back in girly-girly mode.  After all the brown of my last couple of looks I needed a large dose of sweetness and this pink, fluffy little skirt was it!  I toned down the sugar with the rest of the styling, opting for comfy denim and funky trainers. *skips away happily*

So I’m still in a non-girly, non-stiletto mood.  Today I’m playing a fashionable utility worker, or something like that…. It’s basically just a good excuse to run around in this gorgeous coat and the rocking boots.

I’ve always loved the kick-ass outfits worn by those cool and fierce girls you see around the grid (and in many a blog).  I never felt that I could really pull it off though; in my attempts I always felt a little fake, or that the clothes were wearing me, and that I should really be tripping around in a pair of strappy stilettos and girly skirts.  But this time, I’m truly and honestly loving this look.  So much so that I’ve been wearing it for days, and I still don’t want to change.  Now I just need to find some good ass to kick….

So, I was at this Valentine’s party last night and there was this guy…. mmmm… He was cute, and funny and sexy and… HAWT!  We talked, we drank, we flirted, we kissed, we groped, and we may have ended up in his bed… Ok, we did end up in his bed (shut up, don’t judge), and here I am the next morning, desperately trying to get dressed and sneak out of here before he wakes up.

Shit, shit, shit — where are my panties?  I’m crawling around on the floor but they’re nowhere to be found — did he steal them? Fine, I’ll go commando then. I find my stay-up stockings in a shocking state; ripped to shreds! Never mind, they’ll do for now.  My bra decorates the bedpost, and a crumpled-up piece of fabric on the floor turns out to be my little black dress, or what’s left of it.  It’s ripped and mangled and I suddenly remember, with a heated blush, exactly how it got to be that way (and no, I’m not telling you, perv).  All rigth, so far so good — or is it? I’ll get arrested or propositioned if I go out like this. Hmmm…. Oh I know, his white shirt should cover me up nicely; I’m so stealing it.  Ok, just my boots now; where are they?  WTF? Under his pillow? *extracts them ever so carefully*

I do a quick check in the mirror and flinch at the sight of my haystack hair and racoon eyes; lovely.  No, please no! Tell me that is not a hickey?!?! I’m gonna kill him.

It’s time for my walk of shame. Before I go, I sneak a little look at  lover boy, awwwww, he’s kinda cute when he sleeps.

It’s Saturday and it’s dance night! I’ve got a funky and colourful look for the dance floor.  It’s pinks and yellows framed with black.

I’ve got a disheveled, casual look going today.  Like I got up too late and just threw on layers of clothes I found lying on the floor; which all just happened to be in gray and green hues.   And, because I won’t leave the house without accessories, I hung some heavy silver necklaces around my neck (with matching silver hoops), stuck my feet in killer stilettos, grabbed my bag and rushed out the door.
