I Love Blogging & Hate the DMV

Welp tomorrow is my birthday and I've put off my license renewal until today, and I'm even doing this blog post first! Some might say I have an avoidant personality, twisted priorities or I'm a procrastinator; I need those people to get the hell out of my brain. Anyway, I hope you feel special- you supercede the government to me! xoxo

E! Eclectic Apparel and Accessories has just released some grand new clothes, and designer Eclectic Wingtips has improved so much in her work. These clothes fit and look great, it's definitely a store to watch.

Epic Mustache Post, Part 2!

Some of my favorite gin strainers are from the Clawtooth: Men Love Mustaches pack. Here is a lovely look at these darlings!

"The Dapper Dandy." Hair by Wild0, skin by Mynerva.

"Clawtooth: The Frowny Cowboy" (Skin by Curio, hair by fri.day)

"Clawtooth: The Quick Draw" (Skin by Ugly Duck, hair by Ploom)

Ouchie Dumpling is startled by the power of her devilish 'stache/goatee combo created by Nix Sands!

Paradox Messmer's 'stache from Discord Designs makes him strong like bull!

Hope you enjoyed it- power to the 'stache! JAZZ HANDS!

Epic Mustache Post, Part 1!

Curio Obscura - Free Clockwork Mustache (you get a pack of different colors!) sweater Surf Couture - Artist Cardigan & Golden Leaf Brooch for $50L Friday, Tuli Helena skin from the new Dressing Room collection- which ok, is covered up, but it's absolutely lovely, dirt cheap and has purple freakin' eyeshadow!

I LOVE wearing mustaches in SL. Yes, I'm a lady in RL and SL- but so what? I can't grow one in real life and I enjoy looking distinguished. It also brings to mind the old timey silent movie era and vaudeville to my mind- things I am greatly interested in. This will be in too parts as it's rather large. I was lucky enough to find fellow 'stache sporters so you get to see some mugs other than mine as well!

STACHE: DECO - Chimney Sweeper muStache - Grey. Was a group gift but you can still buy it! While it is, in fact, a wonderful chimney sweep 'stache I think it's also very good for a wise older look- for the type the hands out well-worn wisdom at the end of a bar.

Hair: Clawtooth: Velvet Moon - Distinguished

Dress: Schwarz-Group Gift August 25 (Free!)

Skin: *YS&YS* Charlotte 04 Joy

TICKETme. Paper Mustache - Blue. TICKETme. has a whole gacha machine that gives out these rad paper 'staches for just $10L! This is for the lady that wants to wear one, yet wants those around her to understand she can tear it off and reveal her pretty face at a moments notice.

Hair: TRUTH Nadia in Smurf

Shirt: fri.day

Skin: Unique Megastore

'Stache, hair, shirt and necklace all from the store... wait for it... Mustache! This is one of the best 'staches I own- always garners compliments- so the store name was earned, you better believe it.

Skin: []::Tuli::[] TDR :: Gina 06. Since the Gina skin was so popular in the Dressing Room, Tuli will be releasing a full line of the skin in the future!

Intrigue Co. - Mario set. What more is there to say except... Itsa me, Mario!

Hair: Nylon Outfitters Rachel Nylon hair

Skin: Lara Skin-Selena Pale

Yummy- Luigi moustache. He may never get the princess, but he DOES have the bigger 'stache!

Skin: Mynerva Cynthia Butterscotch Clouds

Hair: Sn@tch Sally in Chocolate

Fitzwilliam Lacourte modeling one from DD Beards Ministore! Rather dapper wouldn't you say, what what?

Why it's my friend Christiana Silverweb, blogger at Life Of A/n SL Nerd! She is sporting a sweet 'stache from A:S:S which is... wait for it... FREE! Speaking of her...

She made this awesome 'stache tattoo! She doesn't have a store... YET... but keep your eyes peeled. The sweet 'stache I'm rockin' here is courtesy of AtomicBambi. This was the first one I bought and it's sculpted perfectly, definitely a gold standard worthy of Ned Flanders.

Part 2 coming right up!

(Potter's Field reminded me of this heartbreaking scene from one of my all-time fave fave films, Pickup On South Street, with one of my favorite actress, Thelma Ritter. Her character spends the entire movie saving up so she won't end up anonymous in Potter's Field. Warning- it's a heartwrencher!)
