Squirrelstar Galactica.

Now here's the annoying thing about supercute li'l squirrel aviators: they just luhs to brag about their uber-cool, miniature flying spaceships, that no one else (non-squirrel, I mean) can ever see. -- Take my good friend Charlie here: today he was boasting all over the place that he owns not just one of these super special spaceships, but three. Now that's just mean.

This newest round of Collabor88 has the notably whimsical theme of Steampunk, and the A+ creator lineup has interpreted this to mean many versatile stylings (not just necessarily futuristic Victorian). I particularly loved these this retro cutout minidress (which could easily pass as Old Hollywood glam as well), and don't even get me started about these utterly fab doorbells by Intrigue Co.: I just had to incorporate 1 of these into my look today in some way. -- And 'cuz life is just better with freebies, both my striped 'n bowtied nails + this whimsically antler'ed gaslamp are completely free, courtesy of a new hunt that you can read about here.

Speaking of Steampunk, has everyone read The Infernal Devices? It's better-written-than-usual bubblegum tween lit that I devoured this summer, then forgot about, and then re-discovered on my phone last week that totes got me into the Steampunk mood. -- Too bad this author's other movie rather bombed at the box office, but these prequels are so much better than that one, anyway. Now you have your next bathroom reading!

Steampunk'ed & squirrel'd love + fashionista kisses to all!

Christmas in Leather, With Discerning Reindeer

I realize that it's not even Thanksgiving yet, but as everyone knows, the end of Halloween signals . . . the next commercially viable holiday! Today BluestarRUI Villota sent out a notice about the new Love*Soul Christmas store, which turned out to be an enchanting place. Fluttering snowflakes, button-eyed reindeer, $1L gifts . . . what better way to leap (early) onto the inevitable holiday bandwagon?
This black strappy leather jacket might not be traditional winter gear, but it's sure smexeh. It was also free courtesy of Luna's Boutique's MM board. This group-only MM board changes often + the count is typically very low (like, 20) so there's guaranteed quality time with Lag Monster every time you go. So totally worth it tho'. Love the asymmetrical buckles straps going across the bodice + waist.
These black satin ballet platforms at Maitreya called my name. When I saw them, I was all, Homina homina homina come to mama. (Fashionistas -- you know what I'm talkin' about). These were a 'natch with the ballerina lace-up ribbon socks from Noju, which come with a pretty 3-D shadowing effect.
Here I am with my new reindeer friends. I tried a sexy pose or two, but they were just too cool for school. I suppose if you're a Santa's reindeer, you've pretty much seen it all. I mean nothing seemed to faze these guys. Even my booty pose left them totally unaffected.
I did blow them a kiss or two tho'. You can't tell here, but they really warmed up a lot after that.
I must've won them over 'cuz they even let me hold their babies. Twins! Teeny golden bells! Cheek blush that goes over fur! Awwww. *faints, dies*
My new reindeer bff Rudy even let me hop on for a li'l flying ride. Here I was trying out a coupla riding positions. Unfortunately when it comes right down to it, there's no easy way to rock a fashion pose on a moving reindeer.
My new reindeer crew wanted to meet some of my human friends, so 2 of my fave people on the grid, Gavin McGinnis + Dorothy Button, dropped in for some sleigh posing action. How gorgi does Dorothy look in this furry snow princess hat? She slays the smexeh glasses look like no other.
On the other hand, this is moi in glasses. Not quite as hot, eh? And these were some really cute ones that my friend Linda Mensing found for only $15L too. Gavin suggested I wear them whenever I need to pretend to stay awake. Perfect for RL conference calls.
Speaking of holidays, I must've skipped Thanksgiving in here somewhere, so I'm off in search of yummie mouth treat 'noms. Watch for my upcoming food-themed posts on Sileny's foodstuffs blog here.

Love + fashionista kisses to all!
