I'm just not able to get into the Christmas spirit this year, so I decided to apply for Grinch school. It turns out you get assigned your own personal, um, thingie, like the one from :{MV}: - the Saint Reaper Statue.

He taught me all the Grinch tricks.  Now, I just need to put antlers on my dog.

It's the Grinch training, probably, that makes me like wreaths with bats.  If you're like me, and prefer your holidays dark and scary, head over to -= FORSAKEN =- for some Twisted Krissmuss goodies.  They make perfect gifts because they're transferable, and batty.  They have biohazard bat necklaces in numerous colors, the "key to the beyond" necklace featured above, a crazy/awesome Christmas visor, and batty Christmas wreaths.

Purely Angelic Winter

Spellbound

The night is darkening round me,

The wild winds coldly blow;

But a tyrant spell has bound me

And I cannot, cannot go.

The giant trees are bending

Their bare boughs weighed with snow.

And the storm is fast descending,

And yet I cannot go.

Clouds beyond clouds above me,

Wastes beyond wastes below;

But nothing dear can move me;

I will not, cannot go.

~ Emily Bronte

I Have a New Favorite Tattoo Shop

I've spend the last 2 1/2 years in SL looking for the perfect tattoo.  In that process, I've gathered about...um...a lot of tattoos:

Tattoos that are just right are really hard to find, and don't get me wrong, I have a lot of really amazing tattoos.  But, I was really excited to find a new shop called Cannibelle owned by Annabelle Couturier.  Her tattoos are really well done.  They're not too dark, not too light, not too much, and not too little.  I feel sort of like Goldilocks when she found just the right porridge.

Here I'm showing you my favorites, the first on the left is the Yva tattoo, which was a group gift.  The middle tattoo is called the Joan tattoo.  It comes in black & white or full color with faded and fresh options.  The tattoo on the right is called the Danika tattoo.  It is one of those bright, happy kind of tattoos and it comes in faded and fresh options in black and white only.

Annabelle also makes lingerie, and I am wearing a new release called Agnes.  It comes in a number of light colors and is only 59L per set and only 249L for a fatpack of six colors.

This is why I'm a scrooge

I'm not feeling the holiday spirit this year.  In fact, I'm a bit of a scrooge.  If I had a choice, I'd just skip the whole holiday season, but there are some awesome things going on that keep me from turning into an axe murder.  For example:

The RFL Quarantine: A Postapocolyptic Hunt:

This hunt runs from December 1st to the 31st and all proceeds benefit Relay for Life.  There are two paths - a human path and a hybrid path.  If you want to go on the human path, start at -=Forsaken=- and make a $100L donation to the RFL kiosk at the entrance.  From there, you will get a badge that will allow you to get ALL the hunt prizes from that path.  There are 83 stores on the human path and 62 stores on the mutant path (which starts at Pop Tart and Urban Assault -- SLURL)

-=Forsaken=- has this "Epic bat of skull smashingness" as their hunt gift.  It's probably a good idea to pick it up for this hunt.  You'll probably need it.

-=Forsaken=- is also participating in the A Very Scary Christmas Hunt.   Now, that is my kind of hunt!  You can get this Stabby Cane for absolutely free.  The hunt runs from December 1st to the 31st.  

I really hate it when that happens!

Another hunt to look forward to is a mini hunt at JeSyLiLo.  Just look for the letters hidden around the shop spelling out J e S y L i L o.  There are skins, tattoos, clothes, and even shoes there for free!

Now, I know what you're thinking at this point.  "Isabeal, those boots!  OMG!  They're kick ass!" And you're absolutely right.  They are!  They're a new release from -=Forsaken=-, and they are awesome.  I might never take them off.

To blog or not to blog

I am really thankful for all the wonderful designers in SL and for all the hard (and often under-appreciated/under-paid) work they do.  As a blogger, I can only do my little bit to support them by my purchases and perhaps some promotion via the feeds.  I blog in the hopes that someone else will see something from my post, think it is as cute as I do, and go out and support the creator.

So, I want to give an extra special thank you to the following creators who are responsible for this look:
