Quinn Joined the Circus!

I've been continuing playing with Quinn... she is just such a blank slate! At this point, she can go in any direction with her look without carrying excess inventory from her past. It is kind of addicting working with a new avatar, sort of like that new car smell. :)

Grim Bros. has a couple of great items in their Midnight Mania gorilla (yes, you read that right!)... and Quinn got the one of the current prizes just this morning. It is called Heartbroken, and it is just the most adorable red dress! Actually, it is an entire outfit including two skirt options, a cute little top hat, and ballet slippers.

Upon putting it on, Quinn had this mad desire to join the circus! Off to Chanimations, to play with their wonderfully eclectic and sexy vintage poses and props...

Quinn arrives at the circus. Ta Da!


Where they set her immediately to work... taking care of the elephants...


Before long, her musical talent had gotten her a spot with the circus band...


But she still wasn't happy... heading out to think in the cold, crisp air, she decided that what she really wanted to be is a trapeze artist. Working up her courage, she offered to become Stephano's new partner. And after months of hard work and training, she attained her dream...


becoming a circus star!


Items worn:

Dress, hat, stockings, shoes- Grim Bros. at Clematis Island (heartbroken dress- current MM prize)
Hair- Truth Hair (Jess- freebie on wall)
Skin- Mother Goose's at Turpentine (Red Magoo- Red Packet Hunt Prize)
Shape- Cupcakes (Gift Bag 9- lucky cupcake/chair prize)
Eyes- Poetic Colors at Strata (Sunny Glade- Freebie for new players)
AO- Long Awkward Poses at Festivale (Free to new players)
Pose in snow- Striking Poses (Free gift at Fab Free Headquarters at Car Wash)

All other poses and props used- Chanimations at the deviousMind sim.

This is a really fun sim to explore and play around in. The poses, props, and costumes are all high quality, with a wonderfully vintage burlesque feel. There are several lucky chairs... well, one lucky chair, a lucky elephant, lucky table, pot-of-gold, and desk scattered throughout some of the stores there. Currently, you can win pieces of a Mardi Gras-inspired show girl outfit. Collect the pieces to complete the outfit. Quinn managed to grab a couple of pieces in the short while she was there.

The sim is rated adult, so you will want to be age verified and enable your search to include adult sims. It is a bit bawdy, but it is all in good fun, and really rather tastefully done. Think vintage Playboy, rather than Hustler. ;)


Go, and indulge your inner burlesque diva! Have fun!
