the Pair...finally

After what feels like forever, I finally got my pair of Silver Tobiano Snowflakes Gypsy Vanners.

They're both offsprings of Moonlight Rendezvous(pictured below) but from different mothers. They even have stars on their face which daddy doesn't have. The downside is that neither have matching mane and tails.

Breeding horses are expensive in my opinion. These beauties give birth to live foals and you can't box them and keep them in your inventory. Which means your herd will multiply exponentially and if you don't have the lindens and the prim space, you'll have to start sending them to the cloud ranch even if it breaks your heart. It's also difficult to get the traits that I want because I have no idea which are dominant and recessive.

I had to send some of my pretty Sorrel Leopard Bashir Curlies to the cloud ranch. That hurt.

But that didn't stop me from getting a pair of these starter costume horses, last year's Day of the Dead. The horse in the middle is a Lusitano with the 2014 Anniversary coat. And that KittyCat sitting on the haystack is Amos my 1368-day-old Day of the Dead kitty. They're all ready for Halloween!

The past 2 weeks Moon has been wearing last year's Halloween Gift from Coco and riding on La Bella. It was only fair to take a picture with my beloved Amos, MaryJane and Cassandra too. I had to take out the pumpkins in the crate coz MaryJane wanted to sit in it. Typical cat!

Moon and Ave Maria my Black Tovero Mustang. Today I got tired of the witchy outfit and changed into this year's Halloween Gift from Coco. Moon is also wearing leggings Neve, hair from Exile and shoes from {kokoia}.

I took the first and last picture on ultra high for the shadows while the others were on med graphics. I don't know. I kinda prefer the medium graphics.

Therein ends my non-building blogging. Have a good weekend!

On a day like today

Hair Fair 2017 is going on right now.

And this hair I bought from Exile at the Hair Fair which Moon is wearing seems to be all over the blogs and flickr pages. I can't blame them. I love, love, love the hairstyle too! That's Jack my grown-up Bulldog with Moon.

The top Moon is wearing is a freebie groupgift from COCO. The jeans are from Just Because which I bought from the Marketplace. It is so difficult to find a pair of straight leg non-booootilicious slightly flared pants nowadays. Moon is also wearing sandals from KOKOIA.

After the Art Museum, it was time to go riding with Jackie. Jackie is my Water Horse and she's a Bento wearable so that means you can take her anywhere and she moves and fidgets like a real horse too. She's now a white horse with blue markings that I got from Jinx at the Fantasy Collective. It's so exciting that I can also dress up my horse!

Last, here are my pink BioBreeds Boxers. I had no idea they would grow this huge! My KittyCat Ramses the Mummy wanted to be in the photo too. KittyCats just love taking pictures. Everyday they would come up to Moon and ask to have photoshoots together:)

Going to the Party

After making the cocktail dresses and gowns, I wanted something that would compliment the dresses and I decided a fur shawl would do just that.

What Moon is wearing;
hair: Exile::Check Out Time Naturals
skin:New Faces - Cheryl [Olive]
eyes: Mayfly - Deep Sky Eyes (London Fog, FREE COLOR)

The shawl comes in 9 different textures and I've made the shawls copy/mod so that it can be tinted. Demos are available but only for the copy version.

Teleport to FOREVER SUMMER.

On the Beach

Although it's getting cold in the Northern Hemisphere, there's always Summer somewhere in SL, just like where Moon has her skybox.
Crochet swimwear reminds me of the 70s. I did a few in several colours.

hair: Exile::Rain or Shine: 9. Extremes

My Container Garden

I did some decorating in the small backyard of the Yellow Victorian Townhouse. Small gardens are easy to maintain and keeping plants in containers makes them easy to move around. Or to throw out and replace if one doesn't have a green thumb.
The furnitures in the pictures are old items while the plants are something I am starting to add to the houses I build.

The puppies are still with Moon. They're so cute, I can't seemed to detach them yet.

hair: ::Exile:: A Winter's Tale: Naturals
skin: New Faces Vanessa Olive
dress: {FS} Smart Dress with Texture Change Hud
net stockings: Sn@tch Fishnet Collection V.4
ankle boots: J's Ankle Boots Round (Black)
puppies: Alchemy/Birdy

I have also completed all 4 Victorian Townhouses. They are all available for viewing and purchase at the Simple Things Mainstore.

Girls in Bikini

After I had put Moon in the WoWMeh mesh body, I was inspired to do more bikinis. Here I have Moon pose with Carter who is not in a mesh body, feet or hands. I think they both look good except you can see the differences in the upper torsos where the bodies bend. Mesh body bends smoothly and regular body breaks.

The girls in polkadots print string bikinis.

The girls in hibiscus print string bikinis.

The girls in tartan print string bikinis.

The girls in candy stripes string bikinis.

There are other colours available at the Beach Store and the Marketplace under Apparels. Please try the demo first.

Hello Tuesday April1

For 50L Vs 50% Hello Tuesday, I'm putting out a semi-formal pencil dress and a simple sundress.

I named this pencil dress which Carter is wearing Amelia's Spring Oaks Tea Dress after the owner of the Amelia series houses that I build and I imagined this is the kind of dress she would wear to a spring tea party.
Moon gets to wear the youthful sundress with the pink velvet bodice and the cherry blossom print because she got tired of always wearing 'older' dresses everytime she posed with Carter.
