Balancing Act



So as a single mom in RL, juggling school and kids can be tough.  Toss in my Second Life, with my amazing cajun, our animals, our blogs it all becomes a balancing act that sometimes can be overwhelming.  But even achieving that balance can be fun when you put it into a different perspective!  Chance asked the other day about boots for me on plurk and, as he often does, spent some time looking for the perfect item for me, even when I didn't know I needed it!  These Charlie boots by Ju Weissnicht are amazing!  They come in three different foot and three different calf sizes in each color.  You can get the fatpack of ALL THE COLORS! or they come in sets of three amazing color packs.  So many to chose from, and I know I will have boots for almost any outfit!  Like this dress, a new release from (Elate!) Perfect fit, and so many colors to chose from! Definitely a must have!  And of course, let us not forget one of the new releases from >TRUTH<.  I LOVE the long curly looks and curly is not always easy to find in mesh hair, so I really love how this one lays over the shoulder in a gorgeous cascade of curls!


It really is all about the balance isn't it?  And nothing seems to show that off better than this pose set from Adorkable Poses.  I have been wanting to use this for some time and I am so glad to finally have the chance to do so!  The chairs come in three colors: black, brown wood, and white so you can match any background and the poses are fun and creative!

Ok so, even the best of balancing acts can make you need a rest, as I am taking in the next shot...  Credits for all below!

Goin' on a trip!

So, Chance says to me this morning, "Gabriella!  Mon amour we are goin' to take a trip!"  But it seems as he was packing up the car for our surprise excursion, a couple of the kittys decided they weren't being left behind!  ALL credit for the wonderful props and landscaping and even the idea for this photo goes to that amazing cajun!   These photos are just my take on it.  And away we go!

>Truth< be told, there's no place like home..

Especially when I get to hang out, let me hair down in my comfiest jeans and an adorable top that I can both feel sexy and comfortable in! Mr. Truth has done it again with this amazing new mesh hair that just came out, and the Toki Doki mesh tank top is just what I needed!... C'mon Chance!  Let's have a picnic!

Waiting For a Chance

*Dilly Dolls*  has released this super sexy corset!  It comes in both light and dark colors (I am wearing the light version, and of course, knowing my love for pink, have used the handy HUD and well.. Pink it is!)  
What makes these corsets really unique is the HUD I mentioned that comes with it!  What a great idea!!


Pairing this with the new >Truth< Aurora hair really gave this photo the sensual look I was aiming for!  To be honest, this was one hair that when I saw the photo I was like.. eh, not one of my favs,  and then I tried it! This mesh hair will quickly become a favorite of mine and I'm sure you'll see it often! There has been some talk of the hud with this hair not working, and I found it to be true as well.  If you go to www.truth-hawks.com  Mr. Truth explains a quick and easy fix for it!  Worst case, send him a request in world and he will be glad to send you a new one..   Now, I am going to curl up and wait...  For my Chance to come home...

And her legs went on forever- Dilly Dolls

*Dilly Dolls* has new releases! YAY!  These mesh Lani boots I am showing above are available in a wide variety of colors and styles. I love the way they DO make my legs seem to go on forever.  As soon as I put them on, I thought OH YEAH!  Pair them with a punky skirt and They are perfect!  Sexy hints of thigh between the skirt and the top of the boots make me ready to go out clubbing with Mr. Raynier!   Top it all off with this sexy tank from Spearsong and I'm ready to show him that his woman has still got it, huh? 
 
The wonderful creator of *Dilly Dolls*, Oriana Kuhr also released a number of mesh eyes.  For this I DID step out of my comfort zone a bit because as we all know *grins*  Gabby is strictly a brown eyed girl.  But I thought the different look was fun to do! There are three different types, but I found myself really liking the Eclipse sets that she had, as I am showing below.  Again, her color variety on all three versions of her mesh eyes is vast, something that anyone could like!   




Ok, now to find that Cajun and drag him out for a night out dancing!

Recently, the lovely Ghani released this item in her store +Blue Blood+ (this is a link to her blog, SLURL will be in credits)  I had so much fun putting this together and finding just the right hair, makeup etc to go with it!  It is definitely a different look for me!  Love it!

BOOM BOOM BOOM!


So its Black Friday Weekend!  and OMG the sales in SL have taken over!  there just isnt enough time to get to them all!.. I do have to say, that I went to the one at *BOOM* with Chance and OMG I got some AWESOME buys there..   The sale is 60% off yestereday (thats when i went in and grabbed stuff up lol) 40% off today, and 25% off tomorrow.  The clothes are amazing!  The shirt, scarf AND pants, are all from there.. and for me that is unusual, as I normally mix up who I am wearing often...   The clothing is realistic and very well made, well fitting and honestly?  I feel great wearing this beautiful cashmere sweater..  As I just said to Chance.. " I feel like really sexy in this outfit!  I'd do me!".. yeah..  I know, I have issues *grins*   ... but I'm really loveable!...

And one more thing, before I go.  I know I mentioned this on plurk a couple of times, however, I want to take a moment to send kudos to the owner of Boom..  her customer service was outstanding, and not only did she send me an item that i hadnt even realized had delivery failure, while i was still shopping, but when I returned her IM, she was sweet and gracious and this last statement to me says it all on how she feels about her customers...

  • [20:22] Gabriella Allardyce: Thank you!
  • [20:23] Aranel Ah: yw! saw the failed delivery and thought id resend it before you caught it, lol
  • [20:23] Gabriella Allardyce: =) that is incredible customer service! Thank you so much.. i appreciate it
