Song of the Moment ~ f(x): Rum Pum Pum Pum

This sounds SO good in my headphones - Shimmering harmonies & Pure Pop Bliss. Such a catchy, well-made song. I really like the video for dance, fashion, hair & makeup as well. I love Amber's one glitter eyebrow the best. SO cool. f(x) Fighting!

Under The Sun (Ode to The Sea Hole #1) ~

(As part of my utter *sadness* about The Sea Hole closing, my next few posts will be featuring mostly Sea Hole items!)

~Ode to The Sea Hole ~

I am super sad to see that the Sea Hole is closing at the end of the month - yes THIS month, May, 2013, with all clothes going for a measly 50L, so hurry! I've had a lot of good luck over the years with all of my purchases from the Sea Hole & even a majorly good customer service experience from the owner/designer, Drinkenstein Sorbet herself, a while back. Second Life ate my awesome Animated Wishing Well that I LOVED, (as it does, *grrr*) & it was an older item that she unfortunately wasn't selling any longer, so I wrote a notecard telling her I would be willing to pay any price to get this cute & sentimentally loved item back in my inventory & she was kind & generous enough to just gift me one! I was really impressed. Some of my earliest, fondest, most colorful &  fantastical SL memories are filled with images of "Sparkle Blowey Bushes & Floral Fantasy Lamps," as well as the amazingly savvy vintage & supercute styles that Miss Sorbet seemed to pump out nonstop. I was always a fan. (Not to mention, I still to this day have the Glowing Jade Orb Tree featured smack dab in the center of my parcel.) One of the things I am really going to miss is stopping by Collabor88 & seeing what awesome new things Drinkenstein has whipped up for us, but I hear she has left the place in capable hands & wish her all the best in her Real Life adventures. Thanks for all the creations ~ You are a wonderful designer & you made SL a lot of fun for a lot of people. Happy Trails to you!
