Arya's Heart

Not in the snow today, but it is not warm here.  I wanted the windswept beach look.  It matches my hair.  

You may have noticed a flurry of posting.  That is because I want to make up for all the days I missed, plus I have so much to show, and you never know what tomorrow may bring. 

In the meantime, keep looking at the blog because I may put a fashion and a home & garden post up each day.

I have found The Hanging Garden of Babylon in SL and it are stunning!  I am all dressed up and pretending to beIf you don't get that reference, go watch the movie.  So far my only super powers are finding the end of the sellotape really quick and knowing which movies actors are from, but I am sure something decent will develop if I stay here long enough.

While I wait, you can go shopping at SWANK for this gown and jewellery.  I have included a close-up pic of the jewellery so you can see it in all its glory!

Jumping from rock to rock, rock skimming, and enjoying the view.  It is stunning here in Everlong.  I have been watching the ice skaters and wandering the snowy paths. So many places for photos. I have done some here before and I will be back for more!

I have been wearing this outfit around for a few days while I was doing home & garden pics, so I thought I better get the photo done to show it to you all! That means you get to enjoy it as much as I do!

Here in Aryaland we have some fun little sayings and speech quirks.  One of them is to compare things to nothing.  For example, one would normally say something like, "He was as sly as a fox."  However in Aryaland we have done away with similes and metaphors for the quicker and easier, "He was sly as."  This may seem confusing to the hearer, but it saves time in a conversation.  It is like the speaker is letting you finish the sentence which is good for your brain.  We are essentially helping you.  You are welcome.  

So, today, this set is 'posh as'.

I have a bed and I have books.  What else does a girl need?  Coffee, cats, cinnamon rolls... Okay, but I have the essentials to begin with.  The other stuff I can have someone bring to me.  This will get me started on the path of a good day.

Yes, the snowman is touching my butt.  He also has a weird smile on his face that I am very worried about. But, more on that later.

A few years back I made a rule about mixing my home & garden and fashion pics.  A designer, very rightly, didn't like a combo I had made as they felt it didn't give full attention to one genre.  

It is very rare that I break that rule but today is going to be one of them as I wanted to show you the poses in this set and also my clothes just worked with the whole look so there.  Excuses made and off we go.

There are some fab poses (single M and F, and Love) in this set that are just perfect for chilling with the horses!  I rezzed the PG version. If you rez the Adult version, please cover the horses' eyes. 

Update:  The snowman is still touching my butt and I am contemplating snapping some twigs...

It is quite cold out here, but I am dressed for it, thank goodness.  I possibly should have worn an undergarment but at least I have my coat, tights and hat.  I wonder where I put my gloves. 

I still love these snowy sims though.  They are so beautiful.  I love walking in the snow and ice.  I am enjoying them while I can before the spring comes.

Like a basilisk, I am in the pipes today and it was a wise choice as it is super warm in here.  I wish I had brought a book, pillow and snacks with me because this would be the perfect place to hang out away from the snow.

I am loving all the events going on at the moment and I am so excited to show you all the items from SWANK, but I am worried I won't get through them all in time!  Busy, busy!

Buds on trees are a sign of hope.  They signal the coming end of winter and the hope of warm breezes and sunshine. 

I know SL and the Northern Hemisphere are still in the midst of snow and winter, but at least here I can give you a glimmer of hope and maybe a feeling of warmth too.

Not sure what is happening at 4pm, but I am here for it at West Block.  I am hoping it is some kind of party because I am not wanting to join a cult or anything unless it involves cats, chocolate or coffee.  

I am also happy with the 4pm gathering being a dance lesson, drama club, or martial arts training.  

Mind you, I can't stay long because SWANK is opening on the 7th and I want to get over there pronto.  You should too!

This amazing build from Trompe Loeil is ready for me to decorate.  It is an almost empty canvas waiting to be filled with colour and personality.  But look at it.  It is gorgeous without any décor at all.  It even has a pool at the back, although it looks a bit cool to use that just at the moment.

Go check out the demo of this build in the Uber viewing platform.
