This Christmas bauble was hand beaded with sequins and pins by me. I have a Christmas tradition. I bead Christmas baubles for a select group of friends every year. In this case they are for a friend, who like me, elects blue as her favourite colour.
Each bauble is 15 centimetres in diameter and contain hundreds of sequins, varying in number depending upon the complexity of the pattern and the type of sequins I use. Most sequins in this bauble are 5mm in diameter, except the butterflies which are 10mm, and the central butterfly which is 12mm. Depending upon the colour of the sequin, I will use either a gold or a silver pin to attach it to the bauble. I always leave the flowers and stars until last, allowing a gap in the sequin chain to pin them in.
These baubles are smaller than some others I do, however because it is a complex pattern which starts from the inside and is worked outwards in ever larger circles, each bauble takes approximately 2 to 2 1/2 hours per side.
It is however, a labour of love which I do to pass the time throughout the year.
My drive home was quite interesting on this day! Not only did I encounter a bad accident, I also experienced for the first time a drive-thru car show :)!
Whispered Elegance, Untamed Desire
by small fashion
Draped in a wisp of satin and lace, I am the very embodiment of temptation—coquettish yet commanding, like the lingerie-clad sirens of the Belle Époque, who knew that the art of seduction lay in the delicate balance of what is revealed and what remains a mystery.
This nuisette lace mini caresses my skin with the weightless luxury of a 1920s flapper’s silk slip, yet clings to my curves like a whispered promise, reminiscent of the scandalous 18th-century chemise à la reine, which dared to liberate the female form. The delicate lace tracing the neckline—so reminiscent of Madame de Pompadour’s boudoir indulgences—flirts with the possibility of being undone, of slipping off my shoulders with a lover’s touch.
But this is more than just a vintage reverie—it is the future of sensuality. Crafted in original mesh, this piece sculpts itself to my body like a second skin, ensuring a flawless fit across a variety of shapes and forms. The fully functional HUD puts complete customization at my fingertips, allowing me to slip into a palette of desire—from sultry reds and deep blacks to soft blushes and cool pastels.
The added choice between Blinn Phong for a matte, understated elegance and PBR shine for a luminous, light-catching effect gives me the power to shift between soft seduction and bold, high-gloss allure.
This nuisette is meticulously designed to embrace the most exquisite mesh bodies, including:
Larax
PetiteX
Legacy
Perky
Bombshell
Reborn
Waifu
Every delicate curve, every languid stretch is enhanced, never constrained. The fabric moves with me, just as the most skilled maîtres couturiers once tailored Parisian gowns to the bodies of their muses. Whether lounging in decadent repose or slipping into the night with an air of untouchable mystery, this piece ensures I am the very essence of romance and desire.
And as I stretch out, wrapped in satin and lace, my kitten’s presence is undeniable—soft, eager, and demanding attention. It longs to be stroked, adored, utterly worshipped. Will you be the one to tame it… or will you let it play?
Tonight, I wear small’s nuisette—and with every step, every glance, I write a new chapter in the history of desire.
What will you do when I let the lace slip just a little more?

Still, by the window pane,
Pain, like the rain that's falling.
She waits in the air,
Matte Kudasai.
She sleeps in a chair
In her sad America.
When, when was the night so long,
Long, like the notes I'm sending.
She waits in the air,
Matte Kudasai.
She sleeps in a chair
In her sad America.

Matteo, Rachel, Me (This photo was badly sun damaged. Photoshop & Lightroom did little to help restore it to it's original form. Oh well.)
Proof that I did have long hair at one point in time, Matteo's hair is about as gay as it comes, and Rachel never seems to have a bad hair day.
I'm not sure when the three of us will be together again like this. Matteo is an exchange student in Norway. Rachel is in Portland. And I'm in the Lone Star State.
