My Favorite Bear

“There’s no bear like an old bear.” ~ Samantha Armstrong

I don’t know about you, but I have a Bear, a sweet soft bear that growls only once in a while, never at me, and just his existence makes me feel better about everything. Got him over three years ago but still keep him close because, let’s face it, those tender brown eyes are irreplaceable. I whisper my secrets into those sweet soft ears and hold him tight, and he gives me comfort and happiness.

Now I am not sure if you have a Bear, but certainly you can understand my attachment. This sweet bear from Sakuya Lane is one of the best I have found in SL, made of sculpties and special magic. And my bedtime outfit keeps my Bear happy. First my lingerie from Lisanna Lauria, one of her contributions to District 5 (which opens tomorrow!).  It is a system pieces that comes with appliers for the boobs and a butt if you have them. (In this case, I AM wearing boobs.) System clothes still exist and are still used in world and still can look fabulous. My stockings and shoes are from Gospel Voom, who includes his own stocking HUD and textures with this set. A little HUD work and silk covers my legs.

My hair is one of Truth Hawks’ newest, not for an event but simply sold at his store and darling as heck. It comes with little skelly hands, which I did not wear because, well, those would scare my Bear. My sultry skin is Sawsan Secretspy’s featured skin for District 5. Sawsan found herself in the middle of the Sin City portion of the event and has made a skin to match with seemingly innocent pink lipstick but sensuous eye makeup and a bod that won’t quit. Sometimes all a Bear wants is soft skin and warm hugs.

Goodnight Moon

The other night we had a ‘jama party at Tiphares. I threw on my FAVORITE jammies and pulled out one of my many teddy bears. (How does this happen that I have so many teddy bears in inventory? And, no, they are not Linden bears.)

The jammies, which I can’t find on the grid anymore, were a darling early offering from Pushbutton Skolnick. With their footed bottoms and the soft cloudy print, I thought they were a terrific change from the same old lingerie. I mean, who really WEARS lace to bed? The whole point of it is that it’s itchy and you take it OFF. With these jammies, they stay on all night while you snuggle your bear.

The hair I chose is sweet girly pigtails from Hinano Runo. I got this one a while ago—before Hal*Hina started occupying their current large store. They are long enough to bypass the simply girly look into a more coquettish, fantasy look—something a sexy young woman would wear to *pretend* to be girly. I offset that sex appeal with a freckled skin from Pulse’s new Harmony line.

And my sweet bear is from Sakuya Lane, who also carries other fascinating accessories, like exquisite little tea sets and pretty bonbons on trays and ice cream at her shop, Feather. She also has a line of clothes, mostly of the Lolita flavor with some kimonos and jewelry.
