This blog post is made possible with the help from John Legend and Lindsey Sterling as they perform "All of Me" to kick off the "appreciation playlist" that helps motivate me to write too much for too long. "How many times do I have to tell you even when you're crying you're beautiful, too. The world is beating you down. I'm around through every move. You're my downfall, you're my muse. My worst distraction, my rhythm and blues. I can't stop singing, it's ringing, in my head for you."
I can't tell you enough how much I appreciate the love you've all shown me over the past year [plus]. I arrived back on Suicide Girls because I was feeling a little lonely, wanted to check on some old friends and see if they were still around (here's looking at you @dorsal and @nickstone), and thought a new form of social media that wasn't inundated with depressing posts or stupid quips like Facebook would do me some good. It turns out I was able to flex my creative muscle and make a lot of new friends as I took a chance posting about smiles, the girls that inspire me, and the many wonderful things I've come to learn through opening my world that much more. You've come around to drop me love when I was feeling blue, shown me even more love when I made these crazy long posts, and no matter the distance between us you have offered me a friendship that is beyond priceless. I wouldn't be doing any of this if it wasn't for you. Thank you.
I did lie (a little) and say I had 30 more sets to share with you, but the number is actually more along the lines of 50 including a few from last night and today that entered MR so let's get on with the show and see how many we can cover now, shall we?
@kyanite in Rein-Kyanite by @frankndame
Although the theme of this post isn't actually smiles I did have a few I wanted to share with you and one of the smiles that caught me from the very beginning back at the tail end of 2017 was @kyanite. I even shared her on my new Instagram account under "XanderKenobi" if you'd like to follow. Right now it's mainly my favorite sets published each day, but it'll slowly expand if you'd like to take a peek and follow me.
Along with her Aussie counterpart @kettle, she's been a huge inspiration as she tosses out smiles freely. So many of us drive into a sotmr with dark clouds looming over us that sometimes we forget to smile and chase away the rain so we can once again feel the sun on our face and these are two people that have been doing it since day one. This magical tryst in the garden is no ordinary dance, but it's a warm embrace of freedom, a breath of the freshest air. Her wings may not be real, but sometimes I wonder if she has white feathered wings that she keeps hidden because she's been nothing short of an angel for as long as I have known that sweetest of smiles.
If she hasn't already dusted off your heart with a French Kiss (@coolicio) or had you craving a cute cuddle buddy in Here Kitty then she'll surely pick you up and take you for a flight you won't soon forget. Don't worry about seeking out a forest for this fairy, as she landed gently into MR and soon you'll find her resting quietly on your heart. Wearing her cotton candy pink skirt and a sexy black corset, she's as much a sweet sugarplum as she is the flickering shadows during a candlelit romance. You may have to cross an ocean to wander her magical realm, but @frankndame generously captured some of that magic to share with us today.
@fresa in Fairly Odd by @filicity
I feel "fairly odd" myself as I post about @fresa almost too regularly, but as with @kyanite above she's one of my favorite smiles across SG or... practically anywhere. "Well, I found a woman stronger than anyone I know" is the perfect line from Ed Sheeran's "Perfect" that describes her... perfectly. She's been another star in my night sky that I've been looking up to for as long as I've been here. I was originally drawn in by the purple hair but when I discovered the way her lips curved to defy the darkest of shadows I was in absolute awe. My jaw frozen and my tongue tied in knots as I tried to find words to describe the way her light hit my soul. Her blue hued eyes a clear sky, the indentations in her cheeks when her lips light up the room an adorable impression.
Her beautiful curves kissed by the light, a warm embrace that glows for hours after the night sky falls. Honestly, I'm such a dork as I sit here and look through the set over and over again admiring her smile and listening to love songs. Fairly Oddparents entertained me many Saturday mornings as I sat around the house with nothing to do and now I spend my weekends looking at sets on Suicide Girls. I look at this set trying to think of something enlightening to say, something to impress upon you the emotions swirling in my brain. Over and over again I hear, "your smile's forever in my mind and memory," by Ed Sheeran (again).
It's fun, it's sexy, it's every bit the strawberry siren that has been making us fall in love for years. I may spend more time in silent admiration than actually expressing myself over anything she does, but the simple truth is that she is one of my favorite people on the planet because of her resilience and strength. Her smile is simple expression that proves she can handle a bear and rise to the top. Wherever she finds herself 5 or 50 years down the road my heart will always remain close looking to her for inspiration and finding muse in every curve and breath. I would love to go on, but (in the most positive way) I spent too much time pondering and less time actually writing on this post so I should move forward. 💜
@milloux in Three Chords by @saria
Another smile to brighten your day. If you are experiencing weather anything like me then you probably need a little warmth to get you through the weekend. The beautiful @milloux strikes a chord as she plucks away at the heartstrings playing a soulful tune. Her smile as warm as the sun shining behind her back, I can practically hear the song as she dances away her shorts. Much like an acoustic melody, she's a soft song you can't stop humming to yourself as you whittle away at daily chores.
Most of us can attest to the power of music affecting our moods as we queue the perfect song for a night of romance, an intense workout, or a way to chase away the blues. Even a blues song can be the perfect song for a night out with your partner. @milloux has been modeling and shooting for Suicide Girls for so long that I can barely remember the first time she entered my sight, but this past year I've adopted a pretty strong heartbeat for her talent behind the camera and an equally loving tune over her appearances in front of the lens. Though I would never say she wasn't cute 10 years ago I must say she's blossomed so beautifully that it's impossible not to have heart eyes and loving sighs as she enters the view today.
Sit back, pick your favorite acoustic song, and enjoy a beautiful set.
@thimeow in K.O. by @kalincamaki
@thimeow caught my eye with Panda, Panda, Panda and has been stealing away in my dreams ever since. Her amazing colorful ink imbued upon some delectable curves and eyes so blue I feel as if I'm floating in a vast ocean of warmth, I can barely look away without my thoughts drifting back her direction. Her latest set is a tribute to Cammy which is a little less obvious in the photo above, but I'm a big fan of the tattoo work on her delightful frame so I chose to share some of that colorful art with you. She might not need to kick or punch her way into your heart, but don't be fooled because this fitness fanatic is a tough cookie that's as sweet as she is strong.
She's just as talented behind the lens with sets like Sweet Company (featuring @anilorac) and Delicate (featuring @sirena) that both went SOTD recently as she is modeling her fantastic frame and sharing her warm smile. I'm still hoping for @julha, @dfons, and @qween to go pink, but at this rate there's a good chance she'll see them front page in no time! This cute tribute set was a fresh addition to MR as we get an equal chance to see her carefully crafted cosplay gear and plenty more excuse to admire that lovely hard-working frame in all it's colorful glory. I've only recently found my love for @thimeow, but if I could travel back in time for a little Bittersweet Symphony with @msilveira or join in when Girls Just Wanna Have Fun (@zapbr) then I would snap my fingers and get my bonus fill of this lovely lady. I can't travel back to have a few extra days loving her, but I can still enjoy her previous work so I guess that will have to do for now. Time to boot up the Nintendo and play a little Street Fighter II Turbo!
@hadley in Told You So by @realityfilter
The beautiful blonde @hadley stole my heart when I first saw It's So Easy by @kyledlc drop into MR and I've been admiring her ever since. Featuring a beautiful set of curves and a soft presence, I can only imagine a day in the life under her sunshine. Her smile a gentle kiss from the heavens, her eyes an inspiration sent from the heavens, she's been nothing but a dream since she found herself in the Suicide Girls community. I know she doesn't need my blessing or admiration to make yet another SOTD with the amount of hearts her previous sets gathered in such a short time, but I've been schoolboy crushing since my day one experience and I can't help but share a little of that with you today.
@venusaversa in Little Luxuries by @haileigh
@aurralee first turned me onto this girl and goooood lord is this a hot set. I love a dreamy set of curves and this bubbly bath set is one that will leave you requiring a cold shower after a few long moments of admiration. Her set Savana with @aurralee was a fairly cute set with plenty smiles and a little less water, but also worth the peep if you enjoy that dreamy gaze of hers. Afterglow by @mdt is also one to check out. In fact, it's my favorite and appropriately titled.
Take a dip in this hot tub and your life may be changed for good. I always thought a hot shower was invigorating, but my heart rate just peaked while I watched these waters flow down her curvalicious frame. If you ever needed help washing your back, @venusaversa, or just someone who enjoyed rubber duckies and baths then feel free to let me know next time the water runs hot. 😉
@miyumiyu in Purple by @corwinpxl
I can admit when I've not given enough credit to a model and @miyumiyu deserves a lot more than a tribute post or two that I've shared with all of you. I've only somewhat recently discovered her myself, but whether we travel back to Lollipop by @azazel or further to Petunias by @@rickywolf we can see some quality sets, not to mention a beautiful woman that has become more so as the days passed by. I believe I've mentioned Candle Light in a previous post, but I do believe this latest set may be my favorite yet. I always enjoy a relaxing day with a cup of tea or coffee in hand and seeing a gorgeous woman with some amazing ink taking the same initiative to relax as I've done this very weekend is warming to my heart. It doesn't mean she can't look sexy as hell just standing around the kitchen or stretching out her curves on the coffee table, but it's always nice to see a beautiful woman kick back just like the regular shy folk that come here for inspiration.
Again, if you're stuck inside with a couple feet of snow (like me) then you might need to draw a hot bath with @venusaversa, brew a hot pot of coffee with @miyumiyu, or queue up a sunny tune with @milloux. Whatever you do to warm up your soul and feed your heart I hope you don't forget the rest of these lovely ladies. I've barely scratched the surface of January with a few blog posts already and have way too many left to go!
@syduck in Quench Your Thirst by @kezia
Nothing quenches the thirst like a beautiful woman, right? I may not remember what a hot, sunny day looks like at the moment, but seeing the vibrant haired beauty sipping on a cold beverage makes me a little jealous. It's not jealousy over her experience with the sun, but rather over the fact that the big ball of gas is shedding some rays on her beautiful skin! How is she not pink already with sets like Cold Hands, Coral Heart (@kezia) sitting in MR this long? In Full Bloom and @milloux's A Blossom Fell are also spectacular sets. I'm surprised one of those sets didn't earn her a front page spot already, but I'm hoping this is the sets that helps turn her pink.
She's very cute, has a warming smile, her hair is the perfect color combination (in my biased eyes), and has a tattoo on her cute bum that accurately describes that action most of us would take if we walked past her in the street. My head would make a u turn in an instant followed by my feet if I ever found her crossing my path. Regardless, it's warm, bright, and she's beyond due for a shot at the front page so we could see this happen if we take a little sip of that cold beverage and click on some hearts! @syduck and @kezia, this one's for you.
@hellcat in You're the Good Things by @caustix
We needed a few more smiles, right? What better place to steal an extra smile than with the lovely @hellcat? Hailing from the now snowy and freezing cold Clevel-land, this beautiful vixen is sweet fire the way she heats things up when she she strips down and livens the mood with a cute smile. I've still not been given the gift of her presence even after bumping into some of the craziest celebrities and people I never knew had any connection to Cleveland, but regardless I'm still in awe from a distance. She came in like a hurricane with I Am Hell Cat and quickly earned herself a SOTD only to follow up with even more sexy sets and break a few hearts along the way. She's extremely gorgeous and has some fairly amazing tattoos hidden underneath this sexy set of lingerie that you can see more of if you dive into the set.
She's purr-fectly sexy and will leave you drooling for more so wipe away the dribbles and hop on over to check out this set and more. Every time I see a new set I revisit her old sets and am still in awe each and every time.
@freyamae in Enchanted
The lovely @freyamae isn't as dark as her makeup may suggest. With a warm smile and a purple strip of hair along a very personal lady bit, she's as much a ray of sunshine as she is goth. I can't speak for her personal lifestyle, but the cute set of (hair) buns, some delightful curves, and the way her eyes held my gaze kept me coming back for more even after my first viewing of the set. Featuring a little bit of suburban graffiti, some sexy red lingerie, and enough sex appeal to steal my attention away from that purple strip... oops, maybe not... I think I might have fallen just a wee bit in love with this fairly new hopeful. My brother @kungfury already featured her well before I had the chance, but I do believe this lovely lady deserves a little more love while we're all stuck inside. If it's not snowing where you're at I'm sure there are plenty reasons to stick around for a few extra minutes and leave love anyway, right?
@melanya in Poison by @crisro
She is beautiful, is she not?! I loved Yoko Ono by @drew and Floor 24 by @r_girardi, but I think Bambi by @mel_z might tie for my favorite set. @crisro show a beautiful set that feels so simple and pure while @mel_z had a few particularly amazing shots that still find me falling on the floor after a hard swoon. Regardless of which set catches my fancy more, this latest set is as warm and soft as the smile pictured above. Her beautifully petite and sexy frame covered in some fantastic artwork including one of my favorite foods (pizza), her eyes an alluring song, her lips the surface of the sun coated with heavenly clouds. I love the way her hair falls upon her bosom in the photo above. Everything about this particular photo is so very beautiful and I lose myself in it any time my eyes sweep past.
If this is what a dose of poison feels like then I hope someone willingly becomes my poison dealer because my heart is currently enjoying the high off the imagery alone. @melanya has quickly risen to the top of my crush list and I need another dose. Stat!
@nebra_ in Stairway to the Stars by @fishball
"Ivy by @saria was front page material the day it dropped into MR and this @fishball set of @nebra_ is the mute dream that froze my heart and left me with a little dribble upon my chin. Not one to normally be so ungentlemanly, it's a little tough to not choke on my tongue trying to stir up words perfectly descriptive of this plum haired beauty that's lighting up my world as she tugs the string lights to my heart. Though a few words seeped out I'm still rather speechless over this spectacle of heavenly curves leading me up the darkened staircase into what I can only assume is a heaven similar to her embrace. I don't think I've ever enjoyed the sights of a staircase as much before or after @leemalee took us to @sarahmoon's little stairway to heaven." - quoted by me
Honestly, I'm surprised both her debut set and this one haven't made their way front page yet. It's easy to say both photographers deliver top notch content when they step in front of the lens or craft such beauty from behind the lens, but @nebra_ is a fantastically gorgeous beauty beyond deserving of the spotlight. This set is pure poetry even by @fishball standards and I can barely maintain my breath at a normal pace when the butterflies tickle my belly each time I view this set. I always post love for sets I feel deserve spots on the front page, but this is a set that should have been among the few that barely last a day or two before making it's way up there. Truly beautiful. The colors, the style, the overall emotional feel.
@ellqvist in The Vampire Queen by @vagnerassilva
I know we've seen a few Adventure Time themed sets including @ultramarie, @lady and @skella, and more, but this Marceline cosplay is one of my favorites. Everyone wants to be Princess Bubblegum because she's so darn cute and plenty others want to wander around with a guitar and black wig at comic conventions, but @ellqvist has the perfect look for the Vampire Queen and this set caught my attention right away. Seductive, youthful, and so very hot, I know who I'll be defending and going on adventures with when the time comes. Forget the cartoon when this real life has the romance Finn never quite accomplishes.
"This Vampire Queen isn't just Marceline, but a real life vamp strumming chords made from my heart strings and hypnotizing me just like in the movies. @ellqvist can float away and steal this particular version of Finn the Human's heart because Princess Bubblegum has nothing on her. Let's strike up the band and head out for some adventures, but maybe this time we'll just be a duo because I don't think there's a thing such as 'dogs before vamps' so I choose @ellqvist." - quoting myself, again.
@raisie in Sunny Days by @acsebo
More sunny days and another stringed instrument. We've been seeing a lot of guitars and ukuleles lately in sets, but as I've said one too many times in this post alone I can never see enough sun about now! I love keeping warm with a bright and beautiful woman to heat up my thoughts and these freckles easily charm their way into my heart. Vibrant pink hair, colorful ink, a killer body, and a warm pool? Damn, I think I'm in heaven already and I haven't even left my keyboard. Take a dip with @raisie and warm up this Winter because it might be a long one.
I had a little rough day with some mental block and a couple trips outside to shovel what was somewhere between 1-2 feet of snow today so excuse my bounce between excited words, slight topic shifts, and whatever else may have appeared within this blog. I know I lost my thoughts over @fresa because she really is one of my favorites and I really am embarrassed just how much I really really like her. Oh, you're wondering about the snow? It was nonstop and the wind caused a few drifts so some sections of my drive or other areas around the house were ranging from 1 to 2 feet. That's why there was a big difference in height.
Where was I? Oh, yeah. I bounced a little bit between thoughts and I know I may have not maintained the best style of writing throughout, but I hope you still enjoyed another edition of my blog posts. I try to keep it creative and light. I also like to attempt to discuss the set a bit instead of just oozing my heart out over each set and some days it happens more than others. It happens.
It's time for another break. Maybe another blog post later... maybe not. We'll see how my brain feels after dinner and some TV. Stay tuned and keep an eye out because I still have a lot more sets to share with you!
