I am Titanium

I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
fire away, fire away
ricochet, take your aim
fire away, fire away
you shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
I am titanium

What if?

Don't speak, I can't believe
This is here happening
Our situation isn't right
Get real, who you playing with?
I never thought you'd be like this
You were supposed to be there by my side

When you say that you want me
I just don't believe it
You're always ready to give up
Whenever I turn around

What if I need you baby?
Would you even try to save me?
Or would you find some lame excuse
To never be true
What if I said I loved you?
Would you be the one to run to?
Or would you watch me walk away
Without a fight

I'm so sick of worrying
That you're gonna quit over anything
I could trip and you'd let go like that
And everything that we ever were
Seems to fade but not the hurt
Cause you don't know the good things from the bad

When I say that I want you
You know that I mean it
And in my hour of weakness
There's still time to try

What if I need you baby?
Would you even try to save me?
Or would you find some lame excuse
To never be true
What if I said I loved you?
Would you be the one to run to?
Or would you watch me walk away
Without a fight

Every time I speak you try to stop me
Cause every little thing I say is wrong
You say you're noticing but you never see
This is who I really am, that you can't believe
Makes me want to know right now
If it's me you'll live without
Or would you change your mind
What if I need you?

But What if I need you baby?
Would you even try to save me?
Or would you find some lame excuse
To never be true
What if I said I loved you?
Would you be the one to run to?
Or would you watch me walk away
Without a

Oh baby what if I need you? (what if I need you?)
Yeah yeah, What If I need you?
What if I need, what if I need you?
What If I need you? (Oh) What if I need you?
Yeah, what if I need you?
I need you, you, you

The Reindeer Effect



I think there should be something in science called "the reindeer effect."  I don't know what it would be, but I think it'd be good to hear someone say, "Gentlemen, what we have here is a terrifying example of the reindeer effect."
~ Jack Handy

Far from being terrifying, Reindeer Cutie from Felicious Neko will help you stay warm on those chilly late November days when the first flakes of snow drift through the air.  What better way to get in the Christmas spirit than to don antlers and wag a jaunty tail?  The best part is, since this complete outfit is part of the Sixty Linden Weekend, you will have plenty of jingle left over for buying gifts for all of your favorite elves.   This outfit comes with a green plaid sweater which you can wear with and without the hood, black arm warmers, cozy corduroy jeans, green fringed boomer boots, a tail complete with a coordinating bow and a snowflake nom.  It's so hard to find hair that will work under hats and hoods in sl.  These Rosa bangs from Catwa work perfectly!  My skin is Chloe Tan 11 from Belleza and my Sunrise Eyes in light green are from Ikon. 

The Details:
Outfit:  Reindeer Cutie from Felicious Neko (60L - for a limited time - part of Sixty Linden Weekend)
Hair:  Rosa (bangs only) from Catwa (250L)
Skin:  Chloe Tan 11 from Belleza (older purchse)
Eyes:  Sunrise Eyes from Ikon (150L)

Wynter

Winter came down to our home one night
Quietly pirouetting on silvery-toed slippers of snow
And we, were children once again.
~Bill Morgan, Jr.

Now that the end of November draws close, it won't be long until old man winter makes his presence known.  Today, for Fifty Linden Friday, you can get to know the softer, more feminine Wynter at Belleza.  She's an ivory-skinned beauty with rosy cheeks and delicate pink lips.  Of course, what winter would be complete without snow?  These sparkling, icy blue-gray Eternal Eyes from Ikon, aptly named Snow, look lovely surrounded by Mysteria Mesh Lashes from Gaeline Cosmetics.  Dark, softly flowing tresses named Lykie from Truth contrast beautifully with the creamy skin.  My dress is the latest group gift from Egoisme.

The Details:
Skin:  Wynter from Belleza (50L - for Fifty Linden Friday)
Eyes:  Eternal Eyes in Snow from Ikon (150L)
Lashes:  Mysteria Mesh Lashes from Gaeline Cosmetics (180L)
Hair:  Lykie from Truth (250L)
Dress:  Dazzle from Egoisme (group gift - free to join)

The Power of Pink


Don't make fashion own you, but decide what you are, what you want to express by the way you dress and the way you live.  
~ Gianni Versace

I guess being with family and friends for the holiday left me feeling sentimental, because I have another retro outfit for you today.  My rose-colored fringed vest is from BoHo HoBo and was available yesterday as part of Fifty5 Thursdays.  Under my vest, I am wearing one of my fashion staples, an intrinsic tank in blush, from Jane.  They come in a multitude of colors and are free!  These brightly-hued Flower Power jeans are also available at BoHo Hobo, and they come with the belt shown.  I tinted my free Sunara necklace from Burroughs Jewelry to coordinate with my outfit.  Also free, my Chloe SK Group Gift skin has been embellished with make up layers from Mock Cosmetics.  One thing I love about the Firestorm Viewer is the ability to wear multiple layers of make up.  First, I began by wearing Mythic Neutralizer from Mock to tone down the pink and purple hues in the free skin.  Next, I added the free Opal LipColor Contessa tester from Mock for a soft blush tone on my lips.  Finally, I applied Funsies eyeliner in smoked senna, also from Mock.  My lovely hazel Eternal eyes from Ikon are rimmed with Mysteria Mesh lashes from Gaeline Cosmetics.  To soften the darker brows of the Chloe skin, I added Belleza's Chloe SK light brows.  My hair today is actually a combination of two styles from Catwa.  The bangs are from Rosa and the rest is from Razan, both are in the shade "honey."

The Details:
Vest:  Fringey vest from BoHo HoBo (55L yesterday - sorry I meant to blog this sooner, but got busy with family)
Tank:  Intrinsic Tank from Jane (0L)
Jeans:  Flower Power Bell Bottoms from BoHo HoBo (75L)
Skin:  Chloe SK Group Gift from Belleza (group gift, fee to join)
Eyes:  Eternal Eyes from Ikon (150L)
Lashes:  Mysteria Mesh Lashes from Gaeline Cosmetics (180L on the Marketplace)
Necklace:  Sunara from Burroughs Jewelry (0L)
Make up layers: from Mock Cosmetics (lip color was free, neutralizer was a group gift - fee to join, and eyeliner was not free)
Hair:  Rosa (bangs) and Razan from Catwa (250L each)

Simply Sophia


Beauty is how you feel inside, and it reflects in your eyes.  It is not something physical.
~ Sophia Lauren

Gazing thoughtfully over the rippling fields at Alirium, there is beauty to behold not only in my Sunrise Eyes in Pale Arabian Blue from Ikon, but also in Sophia, a pre-release skin from PXL Creations which can only be found at Around the World.  This creamy, sun kissed skin comes in your choice of a variety of lip tones, but here, I've chosen to have naturally bare lips.  I've added Sophia Smokey Eyes, the tattoo layer also available from the skin vendor.  Mysteria mesh lashes finish up the light touch of make up around my eyes.  My Four Seasons corset is part of the outfit awaiting your discovery of the autumn leaf in the Falling into the Season Hunt at Bitch Tail.   This corset dresses up beautifully with the skirt included in the hunt gift, but also looks fantastic with a faded pair of blue jeans.  I think this hunt ends very soon, so if you like this corset as much as I do, don't delay on this one.  My Shadow Lord Choker, a gift from Ronsem provides a simple, color coordinated accessory.  Side parted, blonde tresses from Elikatira fit the dreamy mood of the scene perfectly.

The Details:
Skin:  Sophia from PXL Creations (1,000L)
Eyes:  Sunrise Eyes in Pale Arabian Blue from Ikon (150L)
Lashes:  Mysteria Mesh Lashes from Gaeline Cosmetics (180L)
Necklace:  The Shadow Lord Choker from Ronsem (0L group gift)
Hair:  Follow from Elikatira (250L)
