"Grand Illusion..."
...living within my escape.
Monday, February 8, 2010




First I want to take a moment to mention a sale going on right now over at [42]. The designer of [42] skins is going to be taking some time away from new releases and as such is going to close her store over on Sn@tch for a while so she can take care of more pressing RL matters. You can read more about the sale and why the store is closing over on the [42] Blog!



I did a little bit of wandering in a completely different release by Evie's Closet yesterday, but couldn't find a place to take a picture that made me happy enough. I chanced upon this sim and felt this dress by Evie was far better suited and couldn't help but sit and take a few pictures to play with. This is the kind of place I would love to vacation or even live, far from the city and away from any chaos or even street lights. Looks like a place you could lay on the hillside and watch the clouds roll by, or even count the stars on a clear night. Be sure to peek at my credits, included is a TP right to Evie's Closet as well as the location these images were taken from.




I've been working with Kerra and now Fae on the Style Card blog and that has left this one a little quiet while it all gets settled. This morning I need to get in and add Fae's flickr and FB badges so that the sidebar is up to date. Things have just been too busy to get everything done! Weeks before last, Sands had a full two week vacation and we spent every bit of it together just spending quality time together when we could and working in EQ2. Now that things are a bit more caught up there I am catching up everywhere else, but its so worth it to fall behind. We laughed each night as our skype call times got longer and longer, I think the longest pushed 16 or 17 hours. Since we are working on running our own guild and raiding force again, he has been insanely busy. The man logs in and ends up in tell hell before the game even loads. It can be a bit stressful, working with so many people and wanting something to be a success, but he is an amazing leader and we are growing by leaps and bounds already! Even after 10 months now the man can still surprise me. Its been a good year so far, I'm happier than I have been in a very long time and even better? Karma is out there kicking butt while showing us she isn't unhappy with us in the least.

Life is good, amazingly good, and I hope it is for everyone else as well! There is a new expansion for EQ2 coming out soon so I may be a wee bit slow on the updates again, but its worth it. Be sure to visit [42] as it closes as well as pop on over to our new blog, which we are working hard to updtae daily, at Style Card! Have a great week SLers, ramble at you soon!

Grand Illusion...
...behind the mask!

Grand Illusion, to me, is a great many things. A place to share my adventures within the grandest illusion I know, Second Life. Exploration, friends and loved ones and best of all, fashion and the addiction that is, shopping! I often spend most of my time in SL working these days, but I still find time for the fashion, for decorating and landscaping and the pure obsessive nature of it all.
