Bring Me To Light Like Jewelry

When shadows are holdin' me tight, you'll bring me to light

When I get gunned down in the fight, you keep me alive

You promise me always that you'll never leave

And be with me always like Jewelry

When shadows are holdin' me tight, you'll bring me to light

You'll bring me to light like Jewelry

                  ~~ Jewelry, Julie Michaels

This is somewhat of a self-indulgent post this time, showcasing two of my darling sponsor brands - Zuri Jewelry and ZOZ.  Zuri Jewelry's Arualblues Collection is sooo gorgeous, and there are color options.  The set has a matching tiara as well so you can do yourself up like a full-on princess if you'd like.  (And you'll like!)  My nails are stunners by ZOZ.  They are delicate and ultra-romantic with color choices on the hud.  Pick up the Natural Love Polish at this round of Cosmopolitan until February 23rd.

I mentioned self-indulgence - this morning I noticed a fantastic shape for Catwa Lona, which I don't have.  I was tempted!  Bought the shape (on sale) and demo'd Lona.  I am still a little tempted.  But!  I would tweak.  I'm an addicted tweaker.  Instead, I wound up putting on my Catwa Catya again - it seems I do keep running back with my multiple head syndrome problem.  I tinkered with the shape (again) and like the results.  What do you think?  I was chatting with my friend ArwennEvenstarUndomiel earlier - it seems in this cornucopia of Bento heads we have gained the ability to uniquely shape, but!  Not all skins and shapes are going to be an ideal match.  Well, it's frustrating sometimes, but it's a tradeoff I will happily take.

Maybe Tonight I'll Hold Him Tight

To think that we were strangers a couple of nights ago

And though it's a dream, I never dreamed he'd ever say hello

Oh, maybe tonight I'll hold him tight when the moonbeams shine

My dreams are getting better all the time

Come On Baby Dance To Vinyl With Me

I wish we met in '78

Oh, wouldn't it be great to get your number on a napkin?

'Cause now I can't appreciate meeting face to face

It's all internet interaction, yeah

Oh, and back in the day we would stay up late

Let the boombox play

But now in the night, we all swipe right

Oh, what a shame

We don't have to lose all the groove, babe

Grab your favorite record and we'll move like they used to

Ooh hoo hoo

We can rock, we can roll

Don't let pop steal the show

Ditch that MP3

Come on, dance to vinyl with me

I'll lay down that '78

Pull you closer, I can't wait

To feel you moving to a classic

(Got you moving, keep it moving)

No, there's no need for 808s (No way)

Let the groove communicate

All of our purple rain attraction, yeah

Like a needle on a record, baby

Lay it down on me

Like a needle on a record

You fit right into me

(Come on, dance to vinyl with me)

Burning Up Like Neon Lights

Baby when they look up at the sky
We'll be shooting stars just passing by
You'll be coming home with me tonight
We'll be burning up like neon lights

Be still my heart 'cause it's freaking out, it's freaking out, right now
Shining like stars 'cause we're beautiful, we're beautiful, right now
You're all I see in all these places
You're all I see in all these faces
So let's pretend we're running out of time, of time

Baby when they look up at the sky
We'll be shooting stars just passing by
You'll be coming home with me tonight
And we'll be burning up like neon lights

Baby when they look up at the sky
We'll be shooting stars just passing by
You'll be coming home with me tonight
And we'll be burning up like neon lights

Neon lights
Neon lights
Neon lights
Like neon lights
Like neon lights

You Stepped Out Of A Dream

You stepped out of a dream
You are too wonderful to be what you seem!
Could there be eyes like yours, 
Could there be lips like yours
Could there be smiles like yours, 
Honest and truly?
You stepped out of a cloud
I want to take you away, away from the crowd
And have you all to myself, 
Alone and apart out of a dream, 
Safe in my heart

        ~~ You Stepped Out Of A Dream, Sarah Vaughan

Vintage Fair - Peggy The Pin Up Girl

Peggy Jones had her picture took
It got in "Life" and it got in "Look"
Then the cameras began to click
And that my friend really did the trick

Then her fortunes began to climb
She appeared on "The March of Time"
All the boys in the Army camps
Wanted her picture for their postage stamp

She is the 'sweetheart' of
Plenty of soldiers
Plenty of Sailors
Thousands of Marines

She's the girl they pin-up in the barracks
She's the girl they pin-up on the wall
In a plane or on a train
She's a prince she's a pal
She was there when they landed
Down at Guadalcanal

She's the chick they all pick in the service
And they take her all over the world
We'll take up findin' a Queen
In a dime magazine
She's Peggy the Pin-Up Girl!

                  ~~ Peggy The Pin Up Girl, Glenn Miller
