You left me no choice but to stay here forever…

Friends break up, friends get married
Strangers get born, strangers get buried
Trends change, rumors fly through new skies
But I’m right where you left me
Matches burn after the other
Pages turn and stick to each other
Wages earned and lessons learned
But I’m right where you left me

Yes, I use songs for inspiration, but I’m really posting because Designer Showcase is back with its February round! I immediately fell in love with Sasha Design’s Michelle. It comes with a jacket, top, and jeans. As spring approaches, it’s time to start dressing in layers! Need a ride to Designer Showcase? Click here!

Best believe I’m still bejeweled

Sadness became my whole sky
But some guy said my aura’s moonstone
Just ’cause he was high
And we’re dancin’ all night
And you can try to change my mind
But you might have to wait in line
What’s a girl gonna do?
A diamond’s gotta shine

Happy New Year!

I love the start of a brand new year. Something really special happens in January too! Designer Showcase is celebrating its 14th anniversary! I hold a special place in my heart for DS. They took a chance on a new blogger; I will forever be grateful (omgosh, I just realized I’ve been in SL for over 15 years). The anniversary event will feature talented designers from all over the grid starting January 5th! My sneak peek is JUMO’s Avery gown. The top and skirt are available in multiple colors, and its gorgeous silhouette screams celebration!

Tis the damn season

But if it’s all the same to you
It’s the same to me

So we could call it even
You could call me babe for the weekend
‘Tis the damn season

Lyrics: Evermore by Taylor Swift

I never saw you coming

And I’ll never
Be the same

This is a state of grace
This is the worthwhile fight

Love is a ruthless game
Unless you play it good and right

I’m a Bridgerton fan. Can you tell?

Who knows, if I never showed up, what could’ve been
There goes the loudest woman this town has ever seen
I had a marvelous time ruining everything
