Changes

Lately I've felt I should make some changes. The sales of my store have been low (even worse than usual) and there was an incident considering the name of the store. Because I don't want to be mixed with an unpleasant person I decided it is time to change the name and do some rebranding. In order to create some room for new items (such as the skins I've been making) I'm working on getting a bigger store with more prims. To help my rebranding efforts I'm creating a little garden to my home. Plan is to use it as a background for new ads.

Office dreams

Last night I went to fri.day to seek some inspiration for my fashion posts. I wanted to find something casual, but stylish. Something I would wear RL too. Result of my search was this simple (and not too expensive either) denim skirt. To complete the style I matched it with some casual style from Ohmai, simple hairdo from lamb and a pair of pumps from ETD. Et voilà! Simply stylish look from daydreams about sexy secretary types.

Waiting for the inspiration

Sometimes the inspiration just takes a vacation. And it gets really stubborn. It can be lured and persuaded, forced and threatened, or even tricked, but it doesn't just seem to want to come back. Maybe it's the way of the brain to tell: "I need a break." These inspirational blockages usually come along the times when I'm the most busy. When things in RL and things in SL get a little bit too hectic.

Even if it is really frustrating, the only way to make these moments better is to lean back and wait. Wait for the inspiration to come back on it's own.
