Hello Starlings,

     This is going to be an emotional blog post for me but worth every moment of it. This year I am blessed to be blogging for the Relay for Life: SL 9th Annual Christmas Expo. I will be putting all of their information below! For those of you unfamiliar with Relay for Life, they are partnered with the American Cancer Society. This year they want to "Give the Gift of Hope" by funding the purchase of Virtual Reality goggles for kids with cancer. I can't fathom what it would be like to be a kid with cancer, or their parent, but... I can see a huge opportunity here to help, so let's work together and raise money for them!

    A big question that I have been asked a few times in my life is; Why do I Relay? I started with Relay for Life in high school, just after a close family friend passed away from stomach cancer. I was so happy to work with them and help raise money for such a wonderful cause. Since then, I have had to use the help and support of Relay for Life through second life as they do offer grief counseling, for free. Thank you for how you have helped me RFL!

So I want to give you my reasons why I Relay:

For my sister Tammy, who won her battle with cervical cancer at the age of 19, and still went on to have two beautiful twins!

For Lorraine, the close family friend I am named after, who lost her battle to stomach cancer.

To my cousin Cathy, who has been battling breast cancer for many years.

To my best friends father, who can use all of your prayers as he is battling lung cancer.

To Victoria, my mom who is now in heaven. Who on her 55th birthday lost her battle to glioblastoma, an incredibly aggressive form of brain cancer.

and

to all who have battled, are battled, or have lost their battle to cancer.

So why do I relay? I relay for EVERYONE.

Why do you relay?

    When you go to the Christmas Expo, note that each designer has a 100% donation item where all of the proceeds go towards this cause, so please, be generous, and know that even though they're just lindens and items to you, they're hopes and dreams for children.

Kisses,
Angelica Darkbyrd

Hello Starlings,

     I have an exciting announcement with this post, I am officially on the blogger team for CAZIMI! Cazimi is a brand that I own many beautiful creations from, so to be on the team is a great honour! <3 For those unfamiliar with the brand, they have an emphasis on nail appliers, with some gorgeous makeup and eyes as well! There are a couple of other odds and ends as well like accessories and clothing so keep an eye out! Also, if you pop onto their Marketplace Store and type in "SALE RACK", you will find a ton of items priced at L$1-L$99, so you can be frugal and look gorgeous!

    I did a good amount of shopping this weekend with the different weekend sales and am sporting some of my haul today.

Happy shopping!
xoxo

Hello Starlings,

     We had snow on the ground here for a whole day, and it got me in the festive mood. I decided to do a little or... a lot of decorating for the holiday season. If only I could get my house to look like this in real life, hehe!

Kisses,
