Pre-event Jitters

It has been nearly three weeks since Smash has been gone and I am really worried about her.  It feels downright odd to face opening night without her…she is, after all my Pier Market partner in crime.  Either way, I am really looking forward to starting off 2014 with some really awesome creators I might not have ever met if it weren’t for the Pier Market.  I knew of the owners of Oceania but had no idea they ran a store named Free Bird… then Loordes of London, well who hasn’t heard of that store? Thumper aka PaulCook of Reverie is slightly dark and gothic and it shows in his clothing….and of course Willow of Eyelure whom I discovered awhile back and have loved blogging for.  We also have DruWear, Phoenix Collections, Grumble and StoraxTree rounding out an amazing set of designers.  I met Mara who runs xXSecond Star through moderating arcade gacha and kept her creative rear around and I consider her a close friend…who knows what friendships will come from running this event? We will see!

Just wanted to show off some of the exciting releases from our designers, shake off some pre-opening jitters and excitedly tell you all The Pier Market opens tonight @ Midnight SLT!

Can you keep up with me?

It may be a hard thing to do I have to warn you…even when I am not moving my thoughts are a million miles a minute..  That said I do love the speed of this bike and riding around on it is such a thrill.  It’s been a favorite of mine ever since I got this bad boy back in February.  Luckily, I can now look as good as my bike in this riding getup.  From my head down to my toes I am covered and that is a huge thanks to Inga Wind!  When the helmet is off I just shake out my hair and apply some of this fabulous lipstick from Eyelure and I am good to go!  Now all I need is a riding partner! *winks*

It’s not too cold for ice cream!

OK Ill admit…the nip in the air is enough for a sweater but I simply can not resist ice cream no matter WHAT the weather.  Sadly, no candied bacon ice cream, but in a pinch anything chocolatey will do!  I couldn’t be happier though, because I get to wrap myself up in new Millinery Shoppe sweaters.  They make me feel good that its fall.  I wandered around and I love the shopping area here so much I am opening a store location up at the Atooly Mall.  I was going to write a story for this post but I got sidelined by lulz on flickr.  I may write stories for posts but bottom line of my being is a truth teller.  My friends have said to me over and over one of the things they love about me is my brutal honesty, so being accused of making false statements has me laughing hysterically.  That said, if you want to see the hilarity for yourself by all means check out my flickr *here*.

Update to Katya’s Story

A few nights back, I saw on the news a story about FBI doing a massive raid called “Cross Country 7″…It was, I read the largest operation in FBI’s history. A quote from another news service said “In a massive nationwide sweep with raids in 76 cities, the FBI and other law enforcement agencies have rescued 105 underage sex workers and arrested 150 alleged pimps in a three-day operation dubbed Operation Cross Country 7.”

I am thrilled to report that the US is doing something about this, and it makes me tear up a bit to hear over 100 children were rescued.

*as an aside I usually only write when I can incorporate sl fashion into my stories, or ideas, but this I simply couldn’t help sharing.

Warning!
