Strange Pixels

Didja miss me? >.>

I’ve kinda sorta been on an impromptu semi-SL vacation lately.  I wish I could say I was off doing something productive.  But, no.  Not even a little bit.

Getting back into it just emphasizes for me how strange and elastic SL-time is.  I’ve only been away a few weeks, but I feel soo behind.  Bear with me for a bit, as I probably am going  to be blogging stuff that everyone has already seen.

Edited to add:  Ack!  Well I’ve just found out that apparently Rotten Toe is closed for the time being, and scheduled to open back up September 10th.  I’ll update the SLurl when they reopen.  Sorry bout that. :(  You see?  I’m totally out of the loop.

Two more new hair fair acquisitions, and two older Silent Sparrow releases to remind you about hyasynth’s stupendous half-off sale!  If you haven’t availed yourself to this bargain yet, you’ll have to hurry.  Sale ends tonight at midnight.

Edit:  Apparently the sale ends tomorrow.  Wednesday, 6/24/09.  Whoops!

The “Cog Mistress” hair from The Stringer Mausoleum was just too perfect a match for Silent Sparrow’s “Toxine” suit.  And the cog hair ornaments are a separate attachment, so you can wear the hair without them.

Mourna a blonde!? That might just be one of the signs of the apocalypse.

I always have the most difficult time choosing my colors at Silent Sparrow. They’re all so beautiful and rich, I stand there in a muttering little flutter of indecision for what seems like an eternity.  Then I usually default to my standard red or black for easier mix-and-matching.  But this great sale as afforded me the opportunity to pick up some different colors than my norm, as seen above.

Many <3s to Zorena for letting me use her gorgeous home as a backdrop.  Among other reasons.

“Outside
The circus gathering
Moved silently along the rainswept boulevard.
The procession moved on the shouting is over
The fabulous freaks are leaving town.

They are driven by a strange desire
Unseen by the human eye.
The carnival is over.”

-Dead Can Dance

Sometimes an outfit takes a few days of wandering-around-in before it fully comes together, and this is one of those.  I’m pleased with the sleek silhouette of the pants, topped by the volumes of silky cloth above.

Allow me to squee for a moment about the new hair at Kyoot Army.  The piece I’m wearing is a combined hood and hair, so it’s harder to see the artistry of the hair itself.  But I urge you to stop by, if you haven’t already, and see Saeya Nyanda’s new releases.  The construction is creative and fun, and I’m quite eager to see what else she comes out with in the area of skull adornments.

Let me also take a moment to love on Tya Fallingbridge of PixelMode.  The boots I’m wearing are custom-made by Tya for the spoiled brats over at SLUniverse forums, and I LURVES them to pieces. <3

This ensemble is composed of bits and pieces from quite a few different outfits.  Follow the cut to find out more…

(PS:  Thankyouthankyou Siyu for reminding me about Munchflower’s Pierrot line of skins!  I don’t have much occasion to wear them, so I kind of forgot they existed.  But this set wasn’t complete without it.)
