Dance Me To The End Of Love

FLICKR

“It flowed and swam around her, filling her blood,

and if she could have done so, she would have melted into the melody,

become the rolling drums, the soaring violins, the clashing cymbals with the counter-beat,

the horns and reeds with their high-arcing song.

There wasn't enough space inside her for the sound,

for all it made her feel- not enough space in her mind, her heart, her body; 

and all she could do to honour it, worship it, was dance.”

― Sarah J. Maas, A Court of Silver Flames

Just Like The Seed

 SONG OF THE DAY

Hello Beautiful World!

While you rest your head on your pillow and travel to the land of dreams,

"I'm chasing the wonder", quiet awake as the owl.

It is way past midnight, and this is when I feel more awake and alive.

Does this make me an owl aswell?

Rather an owl than a witch. Perhaps I am both, the owl that watches you from a branch of a tree,

and a witch who can watch you in your dreams.

I leave you now with one of my favorite songs,

so powerful in the message it carries.

Enjoy and have a good night!

Much Love,

Lori Novo

The Seed

~ Aurora ~

Just like the seed

I don't know where to go

Through dirt and shadow, I grow

I'm reaching light through the struggle

Just like the seed

I'm chasing the wonder

I unravel myself

All in slow motion

You cannot eat money, oh no

When the last tree has fallen

And the rivers are poisoned

You cannot eat money, oh no

Oh no

Suffocate me

So my tears can be rain

I will water the ground where I stand

So the flowers can grow back again

'Cause just like the seed

Everything wants to live

We are burning our fingers

But we learn and forgive...

Happy Day, Shopping Day!

Can you guess where I am?

Come on, try!

Mmm, could it be an all-you-can-eat buffet?

Maybe a food taste convention.

Maybe, just maybe an eating contest to see who can eat the most pastries in three minutes?

I bet you have no idea.

Whoever gets it right wins one million Lindens!!!

Oh, never mind, there's a sign behind me with the name of the place,

Sorry! :P

This is The Sales Room bi-weekly event where everything is priced from 50L - 75L and this round

is one of my favorites. It is packed with tons and tons of goodies for everyone.

But my day didn't start there, I probably covered dozens of stores taking advantage of their weekend's sales. 

For example, I am wearing from this weekend's great sales

Tardfish. Floppy Ears (Animated)

REVOUL - 'Whole Lotta Bunnies' Buns Hair

WarPaint* Carrots! Bunny face makeup [LeL EvoX]

EarthStones Caged Egg Earring - Quartz

You can find these items at the main stores.

Need to dress accordingly for the holiday, right?

With Easter coming up tomorrow, dressing up as a rabbit is just logical.

However, I am sure my Steppenwolf may freak out if he sees me like this.

He doesn't like it much when I wear something... "different", out of the ordinary.

I'll just have to remove the ears and face paint and hide them under the bed so he won't see them.

And wear them again when he is not around. :P

And speaking of "different", I was debating on what eye color I wanted to wear, either to keep

the blue eyes that Lori has been wearing since day one or change them to brown which is

the color of my eyes in real life. I couldn't decide because I just love both equally so I decided

to wear both colors. Have you noticed that my eyes are now blue/brown?

They are from Avi-Glam Eyes, my favorite eye store and they are called AG. Ecstasy Eyes - Pack 3.

But moving on and getting to the end of today's post.

With every beautiful day, come beautiful people and today was no exception.

I leave you now with a few of the many wonderful people I saw today while hopping from store to

store. While some made me smile because of the beautiful uniqueness of their avatar's appearances,

others doubled the smiles when I noticed them barefooted, caressing the earth with their bare feet

just as I love to do.

Thanks for reading.

Keep smiling and live your best life... always!

A Green Fantasy Day

Hello Beautiful World!

I am so happy today for two very good reasons.

First, today the blog reached the highest ever number of views. It actually was more than double

of the highest views from any time in the past. As I always say, numbers really don't matter to me 

but they do let me know if I am doing a good job and if my little boat is actually creating some waves.

Also, keep in mind that it's been less than two weeks since I returned to blogging fashion and beauty again.

I have been getting some massages and mail from readers saying they enjoy my writing. Thank you so

much! I enjoy writing whatever comes to mind and having some of you looking forward to what I

have to say means the world to me.

So now I feel that I am providing something for you to read from my crazy head for those of you that

are up to reading my foolish stuff.

Beautiful fashion, and great locations that you can visit. All these in every single post.

Maybe that is why our views have been going up and up ever since I came back and started blogging this way. ;)

“Do not fear failure but rather fear not trying.”

― Roy T. Bennett

The second reason why I can't stop dancing and smiling...

It wasn't too long ago, actually, it was, years to be exact. That I visited a small shop for the very first

time and immediately fell in love with everything I saw. I immediately tried getting a blogging spot but

unfortunately, the blogger group was full. For years to come, I tried a few more times but each

time I wouldn't make it into this group. So I decided to just give up trying and walked away

taking with me that dream.

Today, I finally was approved for a position in this so longed-wanted brand.

Truly a dream come true for me, YAY!

WarPaint is the brand

and  Mafy T. (mafalda.hienrichs), the very talented designer that so kindly gave me the chance to join

her blogger group. And honestly, I can't thank her enough. <3

This comes to show us that we should never give up on our dreams.

Insist and keep insisting, never stop trying. If we stop ourselves for fear of rejection and failure

we will never know if the dream was meant to be and I'll we needed to do was not lose sight of it.

For my first official posts to her, I am wearing

 #IWokeUpLikeThis7 available @ UBER Event (Ends June 25 / Gallery)

A kit of combines natural freckles and beauty marks.

There are 5 combinations in each pack:

■ freckles + beauty marks

Today I chose a very beautiful sim to share with you.

Welcome, this is

INCANTO MUSICAL DREAMS

(Moderate)

It is so beautifully put together with many fantasy elements, crystals, unicorns, glowing nature,  etc.

Many sitting, cuddling, and dance areas throughout the land for you to enjoy.

You can also visit the village or the castle's terrace or other parts of the castle to enjoy more

cuddling and dancing. From there you can watch the dragon and her baby overwatching the land

below. There is also a long bridge where couples can place locks, like the one in Paris,

The True Story Of The Paris Love Lock Bridge. There are truly many beautiful spots for you to enjoy

on your own or with your loved one. Teleporters can be located throughout the land to help you travel

faster around the area. *No sex or nudity allowed!

All I ask is that you please don't forget to show some Linden love during your visit.

Remember that all donations, big or small will be so greatly appreciated. <3

Thank you so much for stopping by my beautiful people!

Time to go spend some time with my Steppenwolf now. ;)

Much Love,

Lori Novo

Hello Beautiful World!

Don't be surprised if you ever find me at a freebie store or standing in front of a Lucky Letter Board,

I do tend to do these from time to time. It reminds me of my early years in Second Life when I was

just starting and finding new-free things to add to my inventory was one of the highlights

of my Second Life experience. I would search high and low for great group gifts, 

Lucky Letter-Chair Boards, Hunts, anything really just to see what I could find for zero Lindens. 

Still, to this day, I have many of the things I got for free many years ago. 

I cherish them like discovered treasures.

Yesterday, was one of those days.

I decided to go in search of establishments that offered freebies but in my search, I discovered

that many of the listed places no longer existed. I kept finding myself standing in the middle

of someone's living room, or empty sandy lots/lands.

But as always, when I finally teleporter to The Free Dove, I wasn't let down at all with all

the beautiful things I found. I immediately decided to put a whole outfit together with only

items I could get there, and so as I collected each new item, I would put it on, and the final

result is in these pictures. ;)

Here is the list of the items I am wearing from The Free Dove;

1. ALANTORI - Shirley Hair

2. alaskametro<3 - "Rose Gold" makeup set

3. Beloved Jewelry : Mesh Lip Ring (Non-Bento)

4. EarthStones Lora Set - Sunstone Gold

5. Steal Away - Women's Bracelet - Chop Zuey

5. :::FurtaCor:::Malu Set Top & Shorts

Thank you, THANK YOU, Thank You!

Your Ride to The Free Dove HERE. 

Don't forget to join the group and wear the tag in order to get the items.

Now, I may be collaborating with many of the top designers in Second Life for my blog,

but that doesn't stop me from feeling excited each time I come upon a great-free item, 

It gives me a sense of pride and appreciation for what I earned on my own 

and I will wear it with my head high and announce it to the world, 

"This was FREEE FREEE FREEE!"

Before I go let me share with you my beautiful location for this post. this is

A Belly Dance Place 

(Moderate)

Description:

Much Love,

Lori Novo
