Roses Among the Ruins

In the face of all the news about the virus, SL might seem a little irrelevant to some. 
I'd like to remind you that those of us in SL are ahead of the curve:
  • We're used to working independently and entertaining ourselves from our homes. 
  • We're used to being "close" to people who may be half a world away. 
  • We realize we don't have to touch someone in order to put our arms around them.
  • We know that feelings expressed in chat are just as real as those whispered in an ear.

Stay in touch with those who mean the most to you, your immediate family and friends both online and those living in RL isolation. Most importantly, stay in touch with your own sense of beauty and inner worth and with the higher powers you honor. 
The world will change. It has crumbled and been rebuilt countless times in the past. We have no way of predicting what tomorrow will bring, but we are connected in ways our forbearers could have never imagined. If we all work together, we will get through this.

I.M.C. @ Designer Showcase * created my lovely outfit. The jumpsuits and shrugs are sold separately or in fatpacks and are available in a variety of colors and patterns. The textures are wonderful and there are nice touches like the little eyelets and lacing down the legs of the jumpsuit.

Party Time!


You're invited to an early St Patrick's Day Party Thursday, March 12 4-6 SLT.  
My buddy, Shadow Otter, will DJ. The sim is a tribute to the gone-but-not-forgotten Deception television series. It's family and furry friendly and has a lot going on, so come on over for some fun! Here is your TAXI.

I opted out of wearing green to go with basic black in an outfit from SAS. 
The separate top and pants are trimmed with sparkles and there is also a more revealing applier top for those times you want to be really sexy. The coat is included for a refined but comfortable look. 
  • I'm wearing the heels that came in my Vanessa outfit from Wild (see the outfit blog HERE). The hud includes 9 colors and I really like the style.
  • My jewelry from Moondance Boutique has green pearls to save me from pinches. 
  • My look is available @ Designer Showcase* till March 28. 
  • My nails are from Mani Pedi, of course. I'm wearing Vegas Neon to honor the Deception connection and because they're perfect for a green celebration.
