from insult to injury

Just when I dared to hope winter would relent after a thorough thrashing month after month. But no. Adding insult to injury, a blizzard is upon us…again. I’m furious! I’m so frikkin mad, I made my avatar wear a ridiculously puffy coat and pink hair. What other choice did I have? This winter has been absolutely stupid and it’s apparently not done with me yet.

I saw no other option but to channel the Stay Puff Marshmallow Michelin Tire Man. Go ahead and jump right into my nightmare.

That’s it. That’s the post. *spits*

If you’ve already been to the new round of Kustom9, then you hopefully did not miss this structured, military-style jacket from BTTB (seemingly, a serious new obsession). The texture on this beautiful floral single is like a heavy silk brocade; detailed and delicate, but somehow also sturdy. Imagine the dry cleaning bill!

I picked up another single in the dusty pink option, foregoing the fatpack this time around – though, I was tempted! My skin is new from Not Found, also at this round of K9. I have a similar skin from the same brand that I haven’t worn yet (much heavier makeup on that one), but despite the similarities, I really wanted this one too.

I think it’s safe to say my current favorite BoM skin creators are Not Found and leLAPEAU. They both have similar components that I’m especially drawn to atm. But then, these things are cyclical. I’m sure another shift on the horizon…

Speaking of shifts, I am away all next week, but perhaps will be back before I go.

love, edited

Bucking the roses and hearts trend. Well, not totally.

Let’s call it love, edited.

I wanted to wear this pretty overcoat with different trousers but got tired of fiddling with fits. Instead, In the end, I opted to change only the top from this full Dami set. In its place, I found a way to wear this ruched top from ISON I have been waiting to style. And though I would love this coat far more without the need to use the gloves/mug/bags situation, once in a while, even I like a “one and done” option.

Oh and this hair was an instant YES – love it, but only the Basic Pack. The style options were not worth the extra $Ls IMO.

just happy to be here

Sitting here watching the Patriots play about as expected in this year’s Super Bowl. But hey, we’re just happy to be here.

For this style, I went a little wild with recent pickups from Boys to the Bone but I was craving something far less tailored, less preppy and less PC than my last look(s). There’s a biting sarcasm I hope comes through here. Kind of like, “if you think this shirt is about you, you already know” kind of thing. Let’s just leave it at at that.

Needless to say, I am obsessed with this new skin from Not Found. It really changed everything about the feel of this look once I put it on ^^ The hair, earrings and even nails were late additions to what was a pretty different look when I first strung it together.

Just happy to be here.
