At Least The Birds Are Singing To Me

“Now I believe the sun, it’s like a symphony– but what it’s trying to play, I don’t know.” (fun., “Benson Hedges”)

I am pleased to announce that I remembered another reason to enjoy this weather, and that reason is Pumpkin Butter from Trader Joe’s. Pumpkin Butter is the equivalent of spreadable pumpkin pie goodness in a jar. I spread it on a piece of maple cinnamon bread, and (to quote the chupacabra herself) “I die.” Now believe me when I say that this look was not intentionally Tavi. But now that it’s put together, it reeks of her, and I can’t say I dislike it. Who can dislike Tavi, anyway?

Cheap Makeup just released these headbands, and they come in animal prints or plaid. Hair accessories are seriously lacking in SL, (or I’m just really greedy) so I’m pretty excited about them. They go splendidly with the new Modd.G jacket, which I would consider a staple structure piece for every girl’s wardrobe. The handdrawn quirky feel is new to the brand, and I’m loving it.

‘Cause Baby I’m A Tin Man

“I got no arms, I got not legs- but I got a head that tells me stupid things to do” (Animal Kingdom, “Tin Man”)

Blogging two days in a row? Oh yes we can. Random pink roses in the background of the photo? Oh yes, we can do that too. I honestly didn’t notice them until I uploaded it and now I’m too lazy to change it, so you will have to deal with the pretty pink roses. I know the colors are kind of similar from yesterday, but hey, it’s autumn. Neutral tones run rampant.

I stumbled across a mens’ store called Scars (SLURL (EDIT: I just checked again and it seems like he’s rebuilding his store, so I guess you will have to wait for a bit.), and it is all sorts of stylish. I’ve been looking for loose shirts in SL for a while now, and my wish is fulfilled! Prices are extremely reasonable too. The scarves come in girl sizes too, so hop on over womenfolk. I used to sort of scoff at people who smoked in their blog posts because of the ‘cool factor’ and such, but the cig from Hermony is  really well-crafted. Hurrah, and all that jazz.

Your English Is Good

“So we search for you by night in the Deptford gravel pit- until the tramp finds Christ.” (Tokyo Police Club, “Your English Is Good”)

I may have lied when I said I’m not very fond of winter, because I remembered that with winter comes oversized scarves and hot chocolate. Now, if you asked me which I like more, I would run away because I can’t answer that question. They’re both awesome. Unless it’s an oversized scarf with a built-in hot chocolate holder… someone get on that, stat.

Doppelganger Inc. just released these Henleys (after about 6 months of work!) and they are quite a masterpiece. You can’t see the neck detailing thanks to my ginormous scarf, but they’re perfect, and I mean perfect. Oh, and if you love hand-drawn glasses then it’s your lucky week, because Duboo* opened up a glasses satellite store with all sorts of quirky, fun glasses.

Like Eskimo Snow

“And I’m under something black and thicker than a sheet for ghosts–in the first feet of snow, that old cloud’s you” (WHY?, “Eskimo Snow”)

I’m really un-fond of winter, mostly because my fingers freeze up and prevent me from typing anything at all. It usually ends up as “diasf ogkmsf asdpo,” and that wouldn’t make for a very interesting blog post. But I don’t mind winter fashion, which is why I force-teleported Vanity (who is behind one of *the* best blogs ever) and made her wear the carcass of a small prim animal on her head. Before you start crying about abuse, I should mention that she put a penis man at the foot of my bed as revenge. See, she can be evil too. Erm, onto the outfit!

We had some major rezzing problems, so this post took a few days to put together– I swear to god this Lelutka hat wasn’t all over the feeds before I started getting the outfit together, but it seems everyone decided to use it all of a sudden. Not that there’s anything wrong with that, but you know. Just sayin’. Oh, and did I mention I gave into the power of the Coco boots? They’re so fantastically made, it’s beyond ridiculous. Absolutely worth every single penny.

If The Children Don’t Grow Up

“Hold your mistake up, before they turn the summer into dust.” (Arcade Fire)

It’s been two months already, how time flies! I honestly wasn’t planning on blogging anytime soon, but Emleigh and Shane decided to whip me into submission (I kid, I actually tied them up and dragged them to my skybox) and therefore we are bringing you this post. Folks, you had better be ready for the October 16th release of Where the Wild Things Are, because I am sitting here drooling over the trailer like a pug that hasn’t eaten for 20 days. Or a rose-bearing fan boy that stumbled across a Megan Fox sex tape. Whichever.

Please, do yourselves a favor and rush over to Tyranny because Tyr Rozenblum has created Max hoodies that millions of residents will pleasure themselves to. If this doesn’t belong on cuteoverload.com, I don’t know what does. It also comes with gloves and a scepter, not shown in the picture but well crafted and adorable– there are male and female versions, how thoughtful!
