The show of life and final colour challenge

I feel sad that the colour challenge has come to an end, but all good things must come to an end one day and this has been a good project for me to participate.

I finally accepted mesh and although I miss my amazon blonde Moon, I'm happy with shorty brunette Moon.

This has not been a good year for me in SL or in RL but like all things, the show(of life) must go on. I'm grateful that I have not burdened anyone in my process to heal myself of the sadness that has happened to me and in the process, I found a creative outlet in architecture albeit not in a professional way. I'm happy with what I have done so far.

At the end of the day, I realised that I came to this world alone and I will leave it alone too and people are just spices in my life and if they leave, that's alright with me. They have already enhanced my life.

colour challenge week-madder lake deep

This red dress is from Boudoir called Pull my Ribbon. Cute!

I can't believe the colour challenge is almost over!

Weekly Colour Challenge-GOLD

Sometimes some events lead to unexpected outcome.
Anyway, it's that time of week again and Moon is wearing Sn@tch's This Week Special Snowflakes-Mesh Metallic sweater & skirt in gold. It also comes in silver and the whole thing costs only 75L.
Boots are from LpD and the hair is Exile's New Year's gift from last year.
It's time to celebrate the coming year.

Colour Challenge-Tangelo

Another orangey challenge. I really am running out of orange clothes. There are so many shades of orange!
I paired the orangey coloured Drew top which I bought from Marketplace with Tuttifrutti pants I bought from the Black Friday sale. There are 17 colours in that one top for only 99L which is a bargain.

Weekly Colour Challenge:Barley Corn

Barley corn makes me think of bubur chacha and I wonder if I experiment on it, it would taste just as good. Coconut milk makes everything taste good.
The Makeda dress Moon is wearing is from the Around the World Event from 22769.
Size S was a teeny weeny bit big and size Xs a teensy weensy tight. I have concluded that no standard shape will ever be  satisfactory when it comes to mesh clothings. You either have to tweak your shape or wear it as is. I decided to wear it in size Xs and not downsize Moon's boobs any further. Thankfully, the Ging hair from Analog dog  covers the slight flaw.
I'm happy with Moon's shape. She still looks tall and shapely but she no longer towers over other avatars.

Colour challenge-Bittersweet

I tried to search for a mesh dress in Bittersweet but I came up with nothing so I went into my inventory. I actually owned a few orangey dresses and this gown is from Desir. It's almost similar to the gown I chose for the colour challenge in cinnamon because it's from the same designer.

Weekly colour challenge-Charcoal

I had so many 'charcoal' in my inventory, it was difficult to choose. That's the Maitreya Siobhan hat from early this year and Jane's long wool dress from last year.
Somehow the pale lips and hat makes this look retro.

Weekly Colour Challenge-ghost white

I wanted to wear a whitish gown and float around like a ghost but that would be too obvious, so instead here is Moon wearing the latest group gift from Coco Designs looking like she is off to class and Jack there is following her.

cosmic weekly colour challenge

 As usual I will try to find old items in my inventory for weekly colour challenges and this week I found a very old Ducknipple Spring dress from 2009! The black sweater didn't look as good now so I used Coco's old black sweater which still looked fine. The bag is from an old FLF. Hair is from Analog Dog. Boots are from Kookie. Skin is from the latest PXL group gift. I never wore any PXL skins before coz they never seemed to be sweet enough for me but I love this latest skin line. I think Moon looks just as sweet as always.

Antique Brass weekly challenge

I had a difficult time trying to look for an antique brass colour....something between brown, gold and brass and then I remembered I have this favorite Azul dress called Aidaspice which fits this week's challenge.

Amaranth colour challenge week 40

I'm wearing an old dress from Ivalde. It's so sad that the in-world store is closed. Maybe if private sims cost less... but then again, who'd want to buy mainland parcels.

My Siamese kitty is from Zooby. That's a very old kitty from Carter's day and it's a transferable kitty. I think they don't make the animals transferable anymore. I have a weakness for Siamese cats because for as long as I can remember, I've always had them. Not the purebred, but mix with Siamese markings. I'm not into buying cats. The 2 cats I own now were strays my daughter brought back from college 4 years ago. And they're the Princesses now!

When I was googling amaranth and I saw some pictures, I realised that's the vegetable I've been eating all this while.. It's called red spinach here. And it's a complete protein too. Wow, just like eggs!

I can't believe this is the 40th week already....

Weekly Challenge-Hunter Green

Except for the top, everything that I am wearing are old stuffs. Well, the top is old too. It's from the sale going on at Miamai at the moment.

After dressing up, I went to listen to live music.

Papaya Whip-colour challenge

Why is it that the truth makes me feel I have to be on the defensive? Where is the truth in the meaning the truth will set you free? I shouldn't have to get my shotgun out. I shouldn't have to crack my whip. And I surely do not have to set my dog on you!

Anyway, for this week's colour challenge, I look into my very dependable Sn@tch closet. Papaya whip looks like yellow-beige to my eyes.

Colour Challenge-Royal Blue

Since there were 2 kinds of royal blue, the traditionally dark blue and the new lighter version of the royal blue, I thought I'd wear both and to add to the confusion, I decided to wear my old colourful psycho sock from years ago.
And.
Let's just run away, me and my dog Jack.
I wish.
Oh on a more serious note, that is a pose I did and I am very happy with the outcome.

Colour challenge week36-hot cinnamon

Orange is my favorite colour. It goes very well with my olive complexion.

This gown is from Desir during the recent Australia Fashion Week.

Colour challenge week35-Feldgrau

I know if not for the weekly colour challenge, I would have failed at updating this blog. Words somehow seems very hard to come out these days. Also, I've been obsessed trying to build my own house and not being very successful at it.

Anyway, I found an old green military outfit from S&S in my inventory.

colour challenge week34-Russet

I'm wearing a mesh outfit for this week's colour challenge.  It's a full perm Retro Dress from Meli Imako. I tried to figure out using GIMP on how to do separate colour for the waist band but after a few days I gave up. I'll try again later when my brain has unfrozen. Instead, I slapped a texture on the dress in-world and colour it russet. It wasn't a failure but neither was it awesome. I will never be a dress production factory that's for sure!

Week33-Tyrian Purple

Tyrian Purple. Reminds me of Royal Purple. I think I will go colour blind after this 52 weeks of Colour challenge is over. I remember when my friends were into folk art, they would talk about all the different shades of colours and it would all go over my head. Now here I am trying to distinguish one similar colour to another!

A dress from Sn@tch.

A gown from MysticHope.

I am loving this hair colour at the moment. If I had not taken the free ffwd .b hair from the recent Hair Fair, I would not have known that Moon would look so good in orangey-red.

I haven't had much time to write lately. One reason is because I was in the midst of moving and setting up house....in SL. I doubt very much I would ever move out of my real life home again. It's no fun.
