another ask from me ! - do u wear dresses a lot and if yes, what kind? do u have a favourite piece of clothing? do u wear earrings/other accessories?
I don't wear them that often, but I do sometimes :) I like to wear long dresses during summer and sth more tight or retro for "special occasions".
I finally bought this girl lately:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I have some fav dresses like one with a retro vibe, It's beige/rose gold color with some lace and It's just perfect tbh. I also have one tight dark blue one that fits like a glove and It makes me feel like Martin Gore wrote "blue dress" for me jffjf. There is also a long white one that is a little similar to the one that Demri wore in this cemetery photoshoot, so those are some of my fav dresses.
Some other fav clothing pieces is a coat that reminds of Penny Lane character in Almost Famous, shoes that look kind of similar to those:
Tumblr media
and a green bohemian kimono/robe with flower print. It makes me feel like a forest fairy at my own house and everybody complements It. White shirt with retro collar and big puff sleeves. The scarf that is somewhere on my blog too... I have quite many favourites :)
And for accessories I usually wear hoop earrings. Both gold and silver in different sizes. Also the cross necklace as a Buffy tribute haha, but I also love to wear this fern earrings and spiders:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I like to wear ankle bracelet in the summer too and I also really like cool sunglasses, 60s style for example. One of my coworkers is always like: you and your silly over-the-top actress sunglasses. But I like them, It's called fashion sweetie. I also wear hats and berets when I feel like It :) Ahh and this belt:
Tumblr media
Hello? I had to buy It 🤷‍♀️
Thank you 💜😘

NAME: Crystle
NICKNAME: Angel / Pooka / "Oh god"
FACECLAIM:
Tumblr media
PRONOUNS: She/her
HEIGHT: 5' 6.5" (YES THE HALF INCH IS IMPORTANT)
BIRTHDAY: December 9, 1983 (You're all toddlers to me.)
AESTHETIC: Morticia Addams' 8th Grade Lisa Frank Phase
LAST SONG YOU LISTENED TO: "Daze" - Poets of the Fall
FAVORITE MUSE(S) YOU'VE WRITTEN:
...oof... There's... a LOT of characters to sift through to answer this one...
I'll keep it fairly tame and limit it to JUST characters I've written for MMOs. (20+ years of RP both online and tabletop means I have written... a lot of characters... LOL)
Neverwinter Nights: Heathern Ferne is still one of my darlings. A dumb-as-rocks fighter with a heart of gold (and Chessi's first distant incarnation) she ended up becoming a competent fighter, learning some rogue tricks from the ninja she fell in love with, teaching him to view himself as a person instead of a disposable tool, having a child and overcoming some really impressive obstacles.
WoW: Zorayas, the draenei mage, was a spur of the moment character I ended up greatly enjoying because of just how gods damned seriously she took everything. A joke wasn't a joke, it was an offense. A mistake wasn't a mistake, it was a mistake. She was fiercely loyal, extremely suspicious of people who acted free and easy and determined to use her magic for the benefit of herself and the few people she cared about.
GW2: Capricia Vetrov, oh my darling how I love you. While her story never came to a complete conclusion, I've drawn my own mental end for it and honestly... ugh, my heart. My elementalist was vicious and hostile and sarcastic, lashed out at everyone, struck first before anyone could strike at her and had absolutely every reason to be so guarded and bitter. She's still one of my favorite characters, perhaps my absolute favorite, and maybe I'll get around to finishing that novella I started to give her a happy ending.
FFXIV: Having only played the game for about two years, I'd have to say my favorite RP With People character is C'allie Kyho, that outrageously confident, Certified 100% Trauma-Free™ miqo'te. C'allie is a bit of a chameleon, shifting the personality she displays depending on who she's engaging with and why, but I genuinely like the growth she's had and where her story currently is. My favorite character is Annalei d'Latu. I love that thrice-damned bitch. She's vicious and arrogant and brilliant and just downright nasty. I adore her.
--Getting to know the account
WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO TAKE ON THIS MUSE:
C'allie Kyho was my first FFXIV character, made on a trial account just to see what the game was like. Anything with a bow tends to be fairly easy to learn in a new MMO, so I started her off in Gridania and built a vague story about her wanting to see the world and singing her way across it (for the BRD class.) The more I learned about the game's lore and the astounding flexibility of it, the more I started branching out with various characters that I used off and on, depending on who seemed to want what kind of story.
WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE ASPECTS OF YOUR CURRENT MUSE:
C'allie Kyho: Being 100% Certified Trauma-Free™ and the fact that her arrogance isn't even arrogance; her self-esteem is just that unshakeable. (True fantasy roleplaying.)
Annalei d'Latu: The development of her marriage to Seifer d'Latu and the fact that she's a mortician, poses as a therapist and would happily bring another Calamity onto Eorzea if it meant more power for her.
Summer Bellmayne: Il Mheg (having an IC tie to it is just... -chef's kiss- dream come true) and the fact that a deranged romance novelist gets some fascinating reactions from people.
C'esti Kyho: Having a fairly stable Kyho (the tribe is very... interesting) with a skill I deeply admire (aerial hoop performances oh my god) who loves coffee as much as I do and who is actually... pretty normal?
Chessi Eder: She is my favorite punching bag, and it's legitimately sweet and heartbreaking seeing how she will absorb pain without question and then find absolute delight in the simplest things.
WHAT'S YOUR BIGGEST INSPIRATION WHEN IT COMES TO WRITING:
Reading, honestly. I just... cannot be bored, it's like physical agony for me (yay ADHD!) and since I'm lucky enough to have no problems comprehending language or typeface, I read CONSTANTLY. Like... if I'm not RPing or watching a movie, there is an ebook open on my phone or a physical book in my hand. I am almost always reading. [I average a book a day and yes, people who know me IRL can vouch for this.] So reading as much as I do and reading SO MANY THINGS means I'm constantly seeing ideas or plot threads or character traits or combinations of things that feed my own creative spark and make me eager to explore.
My biggest inspiration to write is because I just damn well love a good story and if I can make one happen in RP? Yessssssssss... GIMME.
FAVORITE TYPES OF THREADS:
Honestly, anything but lengthy combat threads with constant dice rolls. I don't mind combat as long as I'm writing with someone who can agree "we both take hits and if I win this fight, you win the next fight" but I get bored very very quickly when it's just a "roll... determine outcome of roll...post appropriate physical action...wait for a roll...wait to determine outcome of roll...wait for post of appropriate physical action..."
I'd almost rather just talk it out OOC, agree to who wins the fight and skip ahead to the aftermath.
Tagged: @bek-sc (Thanks hon!)
Tagging: @luck-and-larceny; @dumb-hat; @eorzeanstarlight; @kich-rp; @miqojak; @ketsuchikotetsu; @mirugaidoesthings; anyone who feels like it! [And feel free to skip the non-RP-related questions if you're not comfortable answering those. ^^]

SoulMates
A/N: I have no clue where this came from but I am so glad I wrote this. Inspired by NOLA culture and by my family on my ‘baba’ side. If y’all are into supernatural, romance and what not then I hope you enjoy this fic with our favorite Disney Prince and OC, Estelle DeVille.
WARNING: Tearjerkers, supernatural, ookie dookie spooky tings and little fluffy moments.
SONG INSPIRATION: Basin Street Blues by Louis Armstrong & His Hot Five
Tumblr media
 It was a cool New Orleans evening as the sun was setting and when a woman sat in her space. Her family was known as one of the most loyal readers to go to. Rumor has it, that the DeVille Bloodline were able to tell the future; dreams made, love and death were what they can tell. The woman and her family had cocoa brown skin even though the Creole stereotype was that they should have fair skin and straight hair. Her place wasn’t like her grandmother’s at all. The walls were a cream shade, with red sheer curtains falling from the ceiling. Gold accents like vases and chest rested in random places. Her black tinted glass table was home to a glass orb where she can see one’s future. There were plants such as ferns, cactus, sunflowers, and roses around the parlor. Her grandmother’s old record player placed a Louis Armstrong record; it brought her back to her childhood. 
   The young lady looked at the mural of her ancestors as her fingers played with the royal family jewel around her neck being held up by a gold chain. Her arms were covered with a long galaxy wrapped around each forearm and the middle of her back had the zodiac sign, Libra, on her back. She had a charm bracelet wrapped around her left wrist that dangled with a cross and she had on huge gold hoops with studs up and down her small ears. She wore a white tank top, distressed jeans and a headwrap made of fine Louisana fabric. 
   She heard the door open with a slight ding and her a male’s first. “Hi, I’m..”
Tumblr media
“Erik Stevens, also known as Killmonger, Navy Vet, 6′0 and a half, no tattoos, dreaded hair and a smile that can kill. But your family knows you by N’Jadaka Udaku, son of Prince N’Jobu. You were born in Oakland, CA but your blood on your father side is from Wakanda, the wealthiest part of the whole world.” She finally turned and he saw her chestnut eyes, small nose, and full lips, Her brows were shaped to perfection and her baby hairs were also styled nicely. “Damn, you are good. You must know-”
  “Everything. Unfortunately, I do. It’s a blessing and a curse. I am Estelle Marie DeVille and I will tell you all you need to know. Please, have a seat.” She watched him as he strolled over with a wandering eye. He wore a navy blue sweater, jeans, and combat boots. She stood in her place as she continued to watch him. “Would you rather me call you, Prince, Prince N’Jadaka, or just Erik.” He looked up to her and said: “either one is fine.” She nodded before taking her seat and shut the blinds; the lit candles around made the ambiance. “So, let’s see. I have a feeling you want to try and contact your father in something called ‘the Ancestral Plane’. Correct?” He folded his hands on the table with a small nod. “I wanna see if he can give me some pointers or if he has any words for me.” She smiled as she said “I know. Now, we can call him if you like but I must warn you, you might feel a chill or two as we do this. The first step is to summon him is for us to touch fingertips” as she closed her eyes.
“So, just the tip,” he said and she cracked a smile. “I forgot to mention how humorous you are. Now, touch your fingertips with mine and shut ya eyes, Prine N’Jadaka.” She held her fingertips with her palm facing down and he placed his upwards once he shut her eyes. That’s when she felt it, an oddly suspicious electric shock went through her whole body then a warm feeling settled in her stomach. She peeked at the prince and noticed his eyes were still closed so she settled in her seat. “Ok, Prince, we both must keep your eyes shut no matter how many voices you hear around. Understood?”
“Got it.”
“Okay, good. Now, I must call him.” She cleared her voice and recited the words. “Esprit, montrez-vous, révélez, esprit, venez à moi pour que je sache que vous êtes réel! Spirit show yourself, spirit reveal, spirit come to me so I know you are real!” She repeated this three more times then all of a sudden he heard many of voices. Voices of people he had murdered in his Navy Days, T’Chaka and Zuru all sung around him. He felt chills all over and Estelle can sense it as well. “Prince N’Jadaka, take three deep breaths, in and out. Once you do this and be calm, those voices and unwanted chills will go away. You will be able to see your father and feel warm around.” He adjusted his shoulders and took the breaths to calm down.
  “Good, now. Let’s summon him instead. Prince N'Jobu, montrez-vous, esprit révélé, esprit venez-moi donc je sais que vous êtes réel! Prince N'Jobu show yourself, spirit reveal, spirit come to me so I know you are real”, she stated and when she did the Prince felt nothing but warmth around him. “Baba, is that you?” There was a faint voice in the distance but then it got closer with footsteps and the feeling of a hand onto his shoulder. “My son, you are looking good since the last time I saw you.” N’Jadaka felt his heart stop when he heard his father voice clearer than anything. “My son, why have you summoned me”, N’Jobu asked and N’Jadaka felt his soul sadden. “Baba, I am not sure if I can handle the grief much longer. The people I have ended, all to try and destroy our blood. I am still amazed that T’Challa and the others have forgiven me.”
Tumblr media
“N’Jadaka, we are not perfect. We all make our mistakes, trust me. You were forgiven by the family because they are not one to judge. I hope you don’t mind but I brought someone along.” N’Jadaka felt a presence on the other side of him and lips to his cheek. His nostrils detected a smell he noticed from his childhood. It smelt like freshly trimmed roses and clean laundry with a hit of cinnamon. He felt a tear fall before he asked “ma?”
 He felt a hand on his right shoulder and another on his left cheek bringing him closer to his right side. “Hi, my baby boy.” He broke down crying, still with his fingertips on Estelle’s. “Hey, ma.”
“Awe, baby. Don’t cry, okay? You too damn handsome to cry”, she said as she wiped his tears. “Baby Boy, I am very proud of your growth and you are a blessing to me and your baba. I knew you were gonna be special when iI held you for the very first time. I want you to know that things happen for a reason, baby. Just trust the process, okay? And I promise that you will continue to be strong. You got the royal blood in you and even better you have my blood and my heart with you at all times.” N’Jadaka nodded and asked, “baba, what does ma look like now?” N’Jobu got closer to his ear and said “let’s see. She still has that caramel complexion, that amazing smiles, those dimples that made me fall for her and her hair is longer now. She is a true vision. She looks kinda like that young lady over there. Can she hear us?”
“Hmmm, not sure. Let me see. Young lady, can you hear us”, his mother asked but received nothing back. N’Jobu looked to N’Jadaka and to his wife next. “My Son, I am sorry but we have to leave now. Just remember that we will always be here. N’Jadaka. And we will be watching and guiding you through everything.” His mother looked into her son’s face and realized all the time she had missed out. She caressed her son’s cheek and kissed the other. “I am so sorry I wasn’t there, baby.”
“I forgive you, ma. I always will”, he said with a nod but eyes still shut tight. “We love you, my prince”, she said as her hand left his cheek and shoulder and fell into N’Jobu’s. “My son, keep this woman around. I get a nice feeling from her. A very nice one.”
“Me too”, his mother said as they walked away hand in hand. “We love you, our prince”, was the last thing he heard before Estelle cleared her throat. “Prince N’Jadaka, are you okay”, she asked. He nodded and felt her fingertips leave his. “You can open your eyes now but slowly.” He did so and when he did, her eyes were on his face. “Would you like a cup of tea before we finish up”, she asked. “Yeah, thank you”, he said wiping his face as she got up to her eating area. She began to brew a cup of jasmine tea and sat back down. “So, you couldn’t hear them? Like at all”, he asked watching her pull out her golden chest. “Well, I could have but I can tune spirits out easily. I wanted to give you three a little alone time.”
 She began shuffling the deck of cards as he watched and her train of thought went to the feeling she had early and why was it still there to begin with. She never had that shock before when she read touched someone. “So, N’Jadaka, how was it?” He looked around then finally at her. “To be honest, miss DeVille. I thought this was all a joke but I don’t think you can fake smells and feelings like that.” She looked up to him with a smirk. “Nah, this isn’t some New Jersey Medium or whatever that broad’s name is.” They laughed and heard the tea kettle. “How do you like your tea, Prince N’Jadaka”, she asked walking to the kettle. “Three cubes of sugar and honey is fine.”
Tumblr media
“Ah, just like me”, she made the tea and him his cup. “Thank you. So, what are the cards for”, he asked before sipping. “Well, we can tell what your future has in store just be four simple cards. It’s actually interesting to see what the cards can tell.” She sipped from her tea and held the cards in her hand, getting ready to draw them. She pulled the first card and placed it in the table for him to see. “Well, look at that. Strength.  The strength here means inner strength of character. Not surprising at all.” She looked up N’Jadaka as he smiled and the warmth in her belly got stronger.
 When she pulled the second card, there was “the Temperance card. This signifies calm, balance, tranquility, and avoiding extremes. Temperance is cautious, keeping one foot on dry land. Something we all need in this world.” She pulled the other to see “The Moon, a mixed bag at best. This card represents intuition, but also subconscious fears and dark impulses. The Moon is associated with the eerie, mysterious elements of our unconscious minds, including recovered memories and nightmares.” This brought a look to N’Jadaka’s face but when she pulled the final card, she looked over at him and felt like this was a sign; she placed the card down.
  “The final card is... the Lovers card represents love, of course, and of the most rarified kind. The lovers share the deep emotional, physical, and spiritual connection you could expect from the kind of couple who calls themselves ‘lovers’. The two lovers stand among symbols of fertility and intimacy. Now, lemme further”, she thought to herself silently to try and figure all of what it meant. “Estelle, are you okay”, N’Jadaka asked her with a furrowed brow and she felt the shock again but this time he touched her hand.
Tumblr media
 She took her hand from his touch and said “okay, now. Your sign is an Aquarius, compatible with Gemini, Aries, Sagitarrius and”
“Libras”, he said which shocked her. He leaned back with his tea in hand and said “Libras and Aquarius have a strong connection when the first meet. They will naturally attract to each other, whether as friends or more. A relationship between Libra and Aquarius always brings positive results. They match both on an emotional and a mental level. You can, say they are something like Soulmates.” He sipped his tea as she sat there stunned. As the signs were there, but she couldn’t fall for it. She put on her poker face as she got situated. “Very good, now the final step. I will say what your future has in store.”
   She leaned forehead and said, “okay, I need you to hold your hands on the orb and I will place mine on top of yours.” He placed his hands on the side and his eyes fell on her. She was very hesitated to do so but she had to shake off her nerves. Once she placed her hand on his with her eyes closed and a straight face, the heat was stronger than ever. Her eyes flew open to the orb and what she saw confused her more than anything. She saw herself...why was she seeing herself? She wasn’t supposed to see her own future. Right when she was about to let go, she saw herself kissing a man. He was tall, muscular built with...dreads. She was him leaning down wrapping her legs around his waist sharing a smile and then an intimate kiss. 
  N’Jadaka watched her eyes as the watched the ball. The ball was just the same but when he looked into her eyes, it was the most incredibly beautiful thing he had seen. The orb mirrored a glowing purple with swirls of pink and blue with sparkles all over. Kind of like a galaxy. He watched her with a smirk on his lips.
  Meanwhile, Estelle saw herself in a wedding gown, a mermaid fit and the groom in a navy blue suit with his hair braided back. The scene looked as if it was futuristic but still modern in a way and they were surrounded by the royal family and the Dora Milaje like she has seen on TV. Another was the couple in bed, nude and her eyes shut; head resting on the man’s chest. His face finally appeared and it was the prince himself. He kissed her forehead as she slept. Then it fasts forward to them, old and gray. Dancing and being happy. She looked up at him and he looked to her, finally sharing a loving kiss and hug. 
 Once the vision was gone, the orb went back to its natural state. Her eyes looked up to him with his eyes still on hers. Her lips were parted and still couldn’t believe what she had seen. Her hands still rested on his as he asked: “Estelle, what did you see?” She slowly took her hand away from his and shook her head. “Maybe, I can tell you over dinner. If you don’t mind. I, uh, I know this really nice restaurant just up the street.”
“I would like that”, he smiled to her and she did the same. Once they blew all the candles, she slipped on her maroon cardigan and locked up as he stood to wait for her. They began walking and talking with his arm finally wrapping around her shoulders; she had her left arm wrapped around his waist as they laughed. Estelle looked back at her store then to the Prince thinking, “maybe, we are destined to be, huh” with a smile.

The Poet's Call to Worship by Amy Genova
If a gold finch perches on your sill, crooks his head, and spots the world in your window like Marco Polo on the Silk Road to China and you guess what this bird is thinking
If you are on a first name basis with all the houses on your block: the aqua house, the house with the rock and the stripe, and the 3 planter-geranium-house, and you know the owner planted her orange-red flowers like May baskets just to divvy up with you
If each morning you tip-toe into your garden and peer over the embryos of beans, like the faces of children and your heart sings, Wake up little darlin's and they do, with beans green as Henry David
If a mutt, black as soil under the curly ferns, makes you cry like the old man in the wheel chair who walks each morning with his pooch tied on by a rope or if you are that man
And if you shiver in a slip of June breeze under the 9am sun because for a moment you see the altar of your life, whether it unfurls in loops and hoops of black ink or as unspoken banners in your heart
Then you are a poet, called to worship.

>>> The Ferns Hoops <<< My minds pretty blown these hoops are still around! But, I sure don’t mind seeing them in the corner of the studio 🌿 Don’t forget, I am happy to set up payment plans! 🖤 This spotlight is for an eye catching pair of hoops made in honor of the ferns and lichens of the forest. The elements that blanket and drape themselves all over and make the forest come alive and feel like it’s thriving. To honor them I’ve hand fabricated a large hoop earring, for a gauged ear, out of 10g sterling silver. A 1” oval of Usnea, found freshly fallen off a tree in Santa Cruz, has been rest in a 14k gold bezel. Fine silver ferns frame the “stone” on either side. The gold running through the piece is their as a reminder that our growth and repaired damage adds to our strength, beauty, and value. ✨These hoops are AVAILABLE, alongside the rest of The Forest and The Ocean Collections, on my website or through DM 🌿✨<<< * * * * * * #ssh #silverstallionhandmade #handmade #handmadejewelry #riogrande #riojeweler #silver #sterlingsilver #sterlingsilverjewelry #silversmith #metalsmith #goldsmith #14kgold #keumboo #kintsugi #nature #naturejewelry #fern #lichen #usnea #growth #branch #renewal #rebirth #hoops #earrings #hoopearrings #gauges #damagedgoodstheforest #ooak (at St. Roch Market New Orleans) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5N27qilX9i/?igshid=1aqgblzip09m2

Kate Opens the Nook
Today Catherine officially opened the East Angelia’s Children’s Hospices new location, the Nook in Norfolk. 
Tumblr media
“You have created here at The Nook a nurturing, caring environment that allows families who are going through the unimaginable the ability to spend precious quality time with each other, comforted in the knowledge that their children are being looked after in the best possible way. EACH was one of the very first charities that I decided to become Patron of after my marriage. Whilst a lot has changed since then, my commitment and support for this wonderful organisation and the work that you do has not”
--via Kensington Palace Instagram
You may recall, EACH was the charity Catherine made her very first public speech for many years ago. 
Tumblr media
Catherine is seriously always the happiest with children. I’m getting total mom vibes from her today and not just because she’s with children but because her hair is just that slightest bit less than perfect and she looks a little tired but she’s there and she’s happy and still gorgeous. In my head I believe Louis is a stubborn sleeper because he’s such a fun and willful character but who knows. 
For outfit deets, Catherine is wearing a purple/magenta wool blend Oscar de la Renta skirt and peplum top which is no longer available for purchase. 
She paired the set with black opaque tights (I believe she’s done this every time she’s worn this skirt suit) and her black Gianvito Rossi Piper pumps which are available for purchase here.
Tumblr media
Catherine’s bag, not pictured, is a repeat she’s very recently worn by Aspinal of London in collaboration with Beulah London and is no longer available for purchase. 
Tumblr media
And she finished off her look with a favorite pair of earrings, the Gold Fern Hoops by Catherine Zoraida, available for purchase here. 
I’m holing out hope that we get a video of Catherine’s speech somewhere, I’d love to see it side by side to see how much Catherine’s public speech skills have improved.

Representing a fierce woman with their spikey inner fern texture, these very cool hoops sit beautifully on the ear. A classic hoop shape that has taken on a contemporary twist and unique shape. Solid recycled sterling silver earring hoops. These are cast from ferns and sculpted to create a nice thick curve with inside spikes. Ferns appeared in fossil records from 360 million years ago. So by casting them into metal, this records the state of our current ferns.. to be continued in another 360 million years… These are made from recycled silver so you will be making a purchase that is kind to the Earth. In stock and ready to ship! The hoop is a 3cm in diameter approx and thickness is 3mm. These are really gorgeous on the ear. Handmade in the studio with large earring pin backs. Each treasure comes in custom black boxes that have a gold foil logo. All of the boxes are recycled as are all of my business cards and postcards that are also included.
