At The Pub

From the first moment I saw this English pub gacha set by MadPea at 6 Republic, I knew I had to collect the whole thing. I love things like this where you can collect a matching building and interior from a machine, and it all looks put-together and cohesive in the end. The little details in the set are really great, as well. In my mind, it’s easy to imagine the noise of the patrons as the chat with each other and drink their drinks and feel the energy of a busy pub.

I’d also like to highlight the untied bowtie that I’m wearing. I recently became an official blogger for Ama. and though this is an older item of theirs that is in their main store, it’s the first thing from them that I am blogging since that happened. I’m so happy, proud, and appreciative to be on their blogging team.

Protect This Hill

As you can probably tell, gachas are a big weakness of mine. I’ve been trying to do better lately, but when I saw this incredible set from Gabriel at The Fantasy Gacha, I knew that I had to have all of it, but especially the black set (which, of course, includes the two rares). The rare Ares tattoo from Ghost’Ink at the same event compliments it perfectly, I think.

Fresh Pizza

There were so many great things released at 6 Republic, with many of them being gacha sets. This pizzeria by unKindness is one of them. Unfortunately, the creators didn’t have a building in the set for all of the pieces to go into, but I think it fits this new skybox from BALACLAVA!! really well. For decor, I used pieces from a lot of other stores at 6 Republic, because so much of it fits together really well.

Starry Night, City Lights

The Event 6 Republic just opened yesterday, and has all kinds of great stuff from many creators, themed around two of the world’s most iconic cities – London and New York. I spent way too much there, so there will be a few posts drawing heavily from the event. This photo started out as a much bigger set that I was putting together, but then I realized that I had a much better photo staring me right in the face, and ended up with this. I used to live in New York City, and can remember many nights when I sat in the living room of my apartment with the moonlight streaming in, trying to figure out what I needed to do. This photo captures some of that feeling that I had back then.

Perfectly Relaxing

I don’t know about you, but I’m ready for summer to get here. Thankfully, Trompe Loeil is helping is get ready early with this amazing new set that they released at FaMESHed, which opened yesterday. The set consists of two different types of chairs (one with a towel on it, one without) in both white and black wood, a beach towel, this pool area, and a free umbrella as a gift to celebrate FaMESHed’s fourth anniversary. All of the fabrics have a ton of different texture choices, which just adds to the awesomeness of the set.

There are also a couple of great accent pieces here from a new gacha set by ChiMia from a machine at this month’s Gacha Garden. The lemonade can bucket and beach bag really add a lot to the scene, I think.

In addition, one of my favorite stores, [ kunst ], has released this great new leather cuff for the event MIX. It’s so incredibly customizable, so it’s sure to fit whatever outfit you put it with. Enjoy this early taste of summer! I know that I will.

Defending the Throne

Like many people, I enjoy the TV show Game of Thrones. I’ve been waiting for the new season since the last one ended last year, and rushed to watch the first episode when it came out a couple of days ago. Then I saw this rendition of the Iron Throne from the series that Amitie released at Lost and Found, and knew I had to do a photo that included it. The photo is not a re-creation of any particular moment from the show or the books that it is based on.

One of my favorite events of the year, the Fantasy Faire, opened its gates last week, and I have pulled in a couple of the Relay For Life donation items as decor pieces for this castle.

Sick Day

I was feeling fine when I went to bed last night, but I woke up this morning with a sore throat and congestion. I guess I caught something from the guy I was next to on the plane flying home a few days ago. Lucky for me, Dynasty came out with their “Care Package” gacha set at The Epiphany a couple of days ago. It looks great with the the Stationed in Soho set from Sayo at the same event. Seriously, though, this couldn’t have been better-timed to match what’s going on for me right now in my real life. It’s crazy how things work out like that sometimes!

After the Game

A friend of mine recently held a sportswear-themed event, which had me scrambling to figure out what to wear. I came up with this outfit, which I totally love. I must admit, I have a *bit* of a sportswear fetish, especially for American-style football players. Now that I’m back from my trip, I decided to throw together a locker room set and photograph this outfit. The shoulder pads are no longer available, but after I told the creator (who happens to be a friend of mine) that there really weren’t any good football pads out there, he’s going to put them back on his Marketplace store soon! There is also a much more adult version of this image, which can be seen on my Flickr stream! I’m pretty excited, because this is the first adult photograph that I’ve put out there for public viewing. take a peek and let me know what you think!

Tropical Winds

I’m currently a tropical paradise in Real Life, but when I saw this new shirt at The Men’s Department from Fabulous and Trendy, I knew I had to photograph it in a tropical locale in-world immediately. Unfortunately, that means the photo quality is a bit lower than usual, since I’m on my laptop. I also love these jeans, which are at the same event.

A Walk in the Woods

I’m headed out of town for about a week and a half so I probably won’t be able to post anything for a bit, but I just heard about this sim and absolutely had to take a photo there before I left. Netherfeild is a stunning sim that has so many places that are perfect for taking photos. While I take a little stroll through the woods, I hope all of you have a good few days! Don’t do anything I wouldn’t do!
