monday morning coming down

[edit: yeah. wrote this this morning and ran out of the house without publishing. ooops!]


eeeuuuurrrggggggh. moar proof of my intrinsically procrastinatory nature - i do believe i took these pictures saturday sometime, felt all proud of myself because i got them uploaded soon after... and then i pissed all my good intentions away fucking with imeem playlists and running around gesturetarding with certain parties who shall remain nameless. and now i've got about ten minutes before i leave for my lovely job (no, really. it is :D ), ten minutes to conjure all the proper adjectives these things deserve. yay!

there have been hunts galore on weekends lately, enough going on at once that i think i snatch up stuff and hoard it before i can quite wrap my mind around what i've got. the latest victims to my slshopping attention defecit disorder were the velvet hunt and the hunt at annah's george5 store. the velvet hunt consists of purple boxes scattered throughout the sim's stores (shown here are vette's fantastic slcelebrity tee and the vixenish purple cardigan from mimikri). annah's got 12 smallish boxes around her new store (including POSES!) and if i can find them all, anyone can (okay so i may or may not have had a little bit of help from our darling adaire).

so yeah.... photos 1-3 show combined stuff from the annah/velvet hunts, and the yummy lo momo babydoll in photo 4 i would never have discovered if not for welmita in our free*style flickr pool! thanks welmita :D











also of note is the jewelry i'm wearing. the talented and saintly-patient orchid zenovka of deco dropped me oodles of goodies about a week ago, and i'm not even kidding when i say that i gasped IRL when i started trying stuff on. she manages to make skulls + pearls elegant all at once, like if grace kelly were a reanimated corpse and needed perfect accessories (and um, were made of pixels) for the zombie jamboree she'd go to deco. i mean, BRAIN BAUBLES? how awesome is that?! again, what i chose to wear isn't free (though very reasonably priced) but there IS a gift in the store:

FREE Pave Swing Set - Available in Store


yes, in my excitement i somehow forgot to snap my own pics of it. i've come to terms with my suckassness when it comes to photographing jewelry, so look around orchid's flickr stream for closer looks at her amazing creations. i'm never taking the triple skull strand off again. or the copper skull ring. mhm.
