She Sits Alone

She sits alone in her chair
fingers twirling around her hair.
Her thoughts disturbed by many a thing
lost love has cast it's dreadful sting.
The house remains empty the furniture in despair
for lack of company she once shared.
His face she misses his smile and charm.
He was the one who tamed the fire that raged in her soul, and made it once again calm.
And so she sits alone in her chair
fingers twirling around her hair.
A closed book lay beneath her feet
another chapter in her lonesome life she is yet to complete.
One day happiness will come to her as she waits,
picnics dinners, and other fancy dates.
A chance to live again and forget the man she lost
her heart has turned cold into such a wintery frost.
With each day comes a new hope in her life
for one day in the near future she will rejoice in life again,
and become some lucky mans wife.

Young Love

Is there any better animated love story and heartbreaking and awe inspiring as the love between Ellie and Carl in Up? It's rare that an animated movie can make adults weep the way that movie does. I am getting misty eyed just typing this post. I did my best to capture the magic and love between the two, but that seems to be a challenge I can not measure up to.
Of course in Phireworld Ellie can not measure up to Carl. Okay so I am just really short, but hey there is nothing wrong with a little role reversal...right? Before we start a lively debate on that topic, or not so lively, I shall send forth the credits.

Mad as a Hatter

It was fun styling the Mad Hatter. Maybe it was because my favorite color was involved? No matter the reason it was fun and I got a little spoiled by Lola. You see every once in while I will show her my look and she will tell me straight up if it sucks. My first look overused system layers, at least in her mind so she bought me some mesh shorts. I have to admit I do look pretty fine in my shorts.
The last thing that I bought for this look was the hat, for some reason I was being very picky about it. I finally found one that suited me. Now I need to get back to work on Vanellope ( from Wreck-It-Ralph)!

A Little Afternoon Delight

Since this theme was afternoon delight I decided to shoot a couple sneaking off for a little fun. I mean I could have been obvious about it, but I thought I would be subtle for once.
As you can see someone was a little anxious to get to dessert this afternoon.

LOTD - Purple Ram

I hope you aren't tired of seeing these adorable spring-like jeans. If you couldn't guess I hit up Zodiac for a little retail therapy. Let's see the top, hair, jeans and poses we all picked up at Zodiac while the skin I picked up at TDR Fusion. Yeah it was a shopping bender weekend. I know it is shocking that out of all the colors I could have pulled from the pansies I picked pink/purple and not the yellows. I think I am starting to ramble so I will leave you with the credits.

Wardrobe Basics - The Pencil Skirt

Okay so it's not exactly a pencil skirt, but it's a pretty one and you could get the same look with a "real" pencil skirt

I am fairly certain that a black skirt, whether it's a pencil one or not, is something almost all of us have. This time I styled it more as a day to night look...maybe. Either way that is today's take on the wardrobe basics.

Sunny Days

I was all set to do a post in the outfit I am wearing till a certain Faery started teasing us with pictures of a hat she was making. I took one look at it and knew it was just what it needed. It's actually part of the hunt that is going on at Oh My Stars and will only set you back 10 measly Linden for a hat with 5 poses and no need to plop on a different hat for the poses either....win! Here take a look at another pose

Sadly my brain has gone into long weekend mode which means I am just barely a functioning human. There may be more pictures of the poses the hat has on flickr...just maybe if you are curious enough to see. See how the dress and hair work so well with the hat to just make a cute little girlish look. I mean sure you could go for a stylish posh lady look, but I like looking cute. *music starts playing* Oh looks like I have ran long and they are giving me the boot. In that case here are the credits.
