I have not been as attentive as I'd like to be with my appreciation posts. I'll spare the sob story 😉 and get down to it. I've had my share of rides up, down, and around the roller coaster track which left my head spinning every which way but forward. I love these posts because they give me a little chance to express my love and admiration for the models and photographers that shine a little light on my day to day. Oh, there are plenty others that are quick to deliver a hug without question (@nickstone @elune_ @ravenskarlette @kaliva @gadget @silentobjectorx @kaptaine @ropers71 @gnomi @yogi64 @bigblue78 @victoriaboness @bookcouple @therustycheez @chroi @hiptobes @avecalluna @psyria_delight @redkaya @diamant @thaecos @kungfury @flare04 @gpryme @miloszbeardlove and some others... apologies, stuffed sinuses always affect my thought process and memory) and they deserve just as much love as the beautiful women (and dudes) in our lives that create content for SG.
I'll be trying to keep it brief so I can fit in as many sets as possibly and not bore you with my typical rambling. If you enjoy the extended commentaries or want to discuss sets, love, and automobiles you already know where to find me. If you so happen to want to share some romantic stories with me so I can live vicariously through your love life... well, let's say I'd appreciate it. I always need an extra boost of inspiration and I've learned to live well through the joy of others so feel free to share away. If not, well, don't fret. I just thought I'd use this moment as a jumping platform to hear some sweet stories to cheer my heart up.
@aurralee in Lavender Kiss by @cersei
I don't know how she could have been nervous to show off her latest set with shorter hair with a lighter shade of violet riding through, but those blue eyes and perfectly pierced lips look fantabulous with her hair. Babe Lair aside, she's a perfectly blossomed flower herself and always delivers as much gorgeous content as she does glitter. I'm still in awe that she decided to ever grace SG with her face and many recruits because that makes us some of the luckiest folks on the planet outside of her place of residence in Canada. @reign, @fleet, and @vampyre I'm definitely looking at you three among the babe crew. As for @cersei, she delivered some top notch photography that's stealing my heart just like her @kalita and @agalope sets did! I don't know if this one is my favorite because I do have a bit of an obsession with those lips that once kissed the end of a 355ml bottle (@lady) or if this set is simply perfect with the blue and purple hues stealing away a little bit of that blinding light that is the delightfully curves bright soul before us. Either way, I'm a little more in love than I was before. 💜
@gnomi in Bonnibel by @intensepuppy
@gnomi, you're breaking my heart, you really are. You jumped into my life with Pokedoll (@loxleyheart) looking like the cutest little thing ever that I wanted to squish for a week straight. That remains an option, by the way. You jumped into a Lord of the Rings theme with Lady of Light (@rouge) and aside from @gloom I am not recalling many others [recently], but between the two of you I have the biggest schoolboy crush and have the really crappy stick figure drawings of us kissing in my notebook to prove it. Yeah, I doodle stupid little love things but none of it is worth more than a thought because my art is, indeed, that bad because I'm more of a wordsmith than an artist. Then you provided me with an extra life by shooting with @tripodski and now we find ourselves pretty in pink with a little Princess Bubblegum tribute? Say it ain't so. You're really trying to win my heart, aren't you? Next you'll probably tell me you took martial arts and sing, too. 😉 Share any more fun secrets behind that bright smile, squishable figure, and delightfully bright eyes and I'll put a Ring Pop on that finger so fast I'll probably cut myself on the plastic when I'm unwrapping it. I can't sing beyond shower or car level cracked notes, but how I would love to sing with you!
@mercury in Antic...ipation by @haileigh
I knew hiring a French Canadian maid was the right thing to do. I don't make much of a mess because I have horrible memory and keeping things neat and organized make it easier for me to not lose my keys or head, but I'd gladly hire that lovely booty from Puddin' because there won't be much to do beyond me gazing on in anxious awe. @aurralee isn't the only one to help her look so good and even @just_sick had a hand in bringing a pretty fantastic set to light (Helianthus). I'm still surprised that sun washed bum hasn't made SOTD with 2.3k hearts, but who am I to admire some of these lovely and talented ladies? It doesn't get more sultry than this maid outfit on a cute Canadian (except maybe the gorgeous @sultry herself who is damn fine if I might add), but somebody please tell me if Canada actually exports single girls because every single one that has entered Ohio has a ring on her finger. I can't help being single and interested. 😅
@lunablue in Always and Forever by @aurralee
@psypher, @kezia, @shaine, and @just_sick created some amazing content with this beauty and I couldn't be more jealous. Not only does she have a fantastic smile that sheds light through dark clouds like a hot knife through butter, but she has some pretty amazing ink decorating her shapely frame and I'm in as much awe over her tattoos as I am gazing into her eyes. Can anyone answer how she only has one SOTD with the amount of love she's received over all her sets? It's criminal! I think I'm going to Soak It Up in the Canadian Tropics with this Endless Romance if she lets me get a little Closer, but if not I guess I'll just remain Love Sick. I don't feel as ashamed asking to look at her bum because she's among [about] 4 girls that have some pretty sweet art adorning their nice little asset. 😏
@zahir in Flames by @crisro
Sonder took me by surprise and had me saying: "My heart belonged to @zahir the moment I saw that cute pink top and adorable smile. I know @crisro took some time to shoot a very cute set which I'm slowly making my way through as we speak, but that smile had me swooning and locked in her gaze for a moment that I wish could last all day. I can't deny that her cute curves and the relaxed feel make my heart feel right at home with a bit of a rapid pulse, but I think this new crush is going to be my distracting thought all day as I try to do normal things unrelated to falling off chairs for beautiful women. If I can say so, I must say that I enjoy the chest tattoo and the cute little kitty heart at the very tip. It might have been slightly hard to tug away from that gaze as I tend to get lost in the moment, but as my eyes slipped to take note of the cute ink I was immediately make cute faces and feeling like a young schoolboy nervously crushing on that not so much older teacher. The ages might be flipped in reality, but I really am a bit addicted to this cute new girl in town. Next time, @crisro , don't shoot such a cute girl and it might not take me a half hour to get past the first few shots."
This second set is a fire indeed even if it's just an angelic beauty floating among the soft white clouds of her bed. Those bright red lips smiling and chocolate hazelnut eyes a delightful treat to greet my weary heart as I enter the room. She is a fire I wish never to put out. I'll accept a few burns along my embrace if it means a hug from this cutie.
Let's take a break for a second to mention a few other names that popped up in my head from my dear friend @romany putting up a fight to bring that delightful smile back to her own face to @phianixx who taught me boys aren't as great as outer space or games 😉. @naru_blu has been killing it with her pole dance videos and I doubt most of us would even bother attempting to pull any of those moves off without suffering a concussion or finding some way to break or strain something severely. Let's not forget the gorgeous and flexible mastery of @cleodora or the newly acquired hoop talents of @melusine2908. @venisons has been breaking my heart daily with her beautiful Instagram photos and @arachnie is one of the most badass sexy mothers to walk this planet. If you're not agreeing with her honest yet positive words then you're surely thinking pretty hard about what she's said. Speaking of positivity, I have nothing but a bucket load for my gorgeous friend @ohsammiii who works so hard at chasing her dreams that she inspires me more than she might realize. I should give a brief shout out to @maleh as well just for being as cool as she is hot which may seem pretty common on this site, but the reality in my town is a lot more like an option between the two. Oh, my new friend @poshallen for the love and greeting recently, too! Hell yeah! I couldn't have asked for a cooler stranger to be... so cool.
@vaire in Saguro by @floydian
@hiptobes introduced me to this lovely lady and she is a Marvel (@darryldarko) indeed! She looks great in Calvins (@alissa) and Behind the Curtain (@thelabrat), but she also made a great pairing with @moony in Moony and Vaire Strike Back. She is gorgeous and it's quite obvious even from the photo above that she's a SOTD queen. Her slender frame is quite alluring, but its her bewitching eyes that stole my heart. It's hard to peel my eyes away and I'm sure you don't blame me as your eyes probably need as many eye drops as mine to wash that sticky feeling out once you do pull away. It's the truth. Plus, sharks. I know you know what exactly what I mean. If you don't then you might not have as big of a crush as I do.
@glameow in Roses Are Red by @ridmovies
What do @karanlit, @maryberry, @frosty, @lure, @kaleria, @ultramarie, @zirael, and @glameow all have in common? Toss in @avrora, @ivylina, @purr, @elisarose, @luuly, @anoukevil, @donawhale, @snowyfeles (one of my forever favorites), @mikey, @jane_jame, @dizmay, @sova, @dianalark, @alenagzhel and @dariianity and it should be pretty obvious. Federation of Babes? If @aurralee can have a Babe Lair then there can be an entire country run by delightful ladies such as all of these, right? I didn't even cover half the ladies from that corner of the world and that's enough to overload any heart. Go ahead and try to love a fraction of these names and I assure you a heart attack and hospital visit is in your near future.
I dubbed @glameow the Russian Raven, but I have to admit she looks charming in red. She's a beautiful rose that's blossoming quite well on SG and I'm growing ever more excited to see where she takes off from here. I wish I could say I knew her better so I could rattle off her amazing traits, but you'll have to settle for the words that follow my dropped jaw. She's the cutest little thing in this exquisite set. The goth look was starting to grow on me after Naked Game (@akril), but I'm flat out smitten right now. This exquisite set worked perfectly with the cool blues and fiery red.
@cygnet in Aloe Ferox by @zen
Despite Eat Me featuring my color lust affair, I was rather favoring Electric Feel (@lady) and Dolce (@joelaphoto), but this latest @zen set may be one of the hottest sets she's shot. I adore the very cute and sweet photographer behind this set and love the work she's done with the likes of @nebula (another very amazing woman, by the way), @chef (also a sweetie, I love ya!), @effy, and my always favorite @chalk. It's very much a classic Zen set with some great compositions and the way she allows the color a little life in the set, but @cygnet appears to be a very sensual being in all of her sets and elevates the shoot to another level. Am I impressed? Hell yeah! I always love seeing both of their names pop up in MR and still hold onto the wish we get to see more of @zen herself even if she never models herself, The truth is she's too flipping cute to always remain behind the camera. Dreams, eh?
@milenci in Daydreamer by @sobelle
Lovecat (@atlanticlungs) was a fairly sexy set sitting right up there with @valkyria's Selina's Dream (@chinaski) and @elaena's What's New Pussycat?. @cersei's Foxtrot and @waikiki's Jaguar were also heart melting sets, but this latest set is the sweetest of all. Honestly, I could admire that smile all day and night until the end of time. If there was ever a dream woman to share a couch with I would choose @milenci. Even if it wasn't a date night I could only imagine how much fun she would be in sharing a simple night in with just the TV and maybe some popcorn or hot tea. She may have turned up the fire in some of her previous sets, but behind those crystalline eyes shining like translucent earthen-hued diamonds is a bundle of cotton candy sweetness and that smile is a whisk of honey in a warm cup of tea. My next birthday wish is to find someone as beautiful and sweet to spend even a single evening with. 💕
@vandoll in Until the Last Drop by @saria
It's impossible to choose a favorite @vandoll set. Featuring a set so hot that the cool blue hue was the only thing keeping it from spontaneously combusting Bad Angel by @minuminula), the classic @mel_z take (Take Me Down) that always leaves me with an infatuation and schoolboy crush, @fishball's soul-capturing and stirring Lights On, @darryldarko's set that begs me to Come Closer, and the lovely @aeterna herself bringing us into a Blue Morning that I'll never forget. Between all of these sets and this latest set that brings back that @minuminula fire with a @saria twist I don't know if any cold showers will ever do the trick again. @brisen and @elerancida may be two of my favorites from across the ocean to make a killer lasagna, but @vandoll has me wondering just how spicy Italian food really is. She's a stunner and a heart breaker. 💔
@plush and @somer in The Synchronicity Key by @kactus
@somer is the key element that had me slinging fire and drinking flames because she's been lighting up sparks in my dreams for the pat year and now I discover this sexy multi with @plush only to find my heart at double it's rapid pulse. I may not smoke, but I'd love to share a simple moment with these two beauties. Judging from the looks of the sunlight it would have been a great sunset to experience as these two lovely ladies lit up under the sun and continue to have them remain the last sight before falling asleep.
@luxes in A Certain Romance by @chinaski
Featuring truly lovely sets by @mel_z and @r_girardi it was rather nice to see a @chinaski shot set of the slender framed @luxes. @tripodski delivered one of his hottest shot sets ever and @luxes her hottest modeled set, but this latest incarnation of the blue haired vixen was a nice go between with some soft senuality and a little heated sexuality leaving me breathless. She's a super sweet soul and has a smile I would love to see one day in person. Those eyes melted my heart when I discovered All About Me. She's a dream. 💙😍
A brief intermission to also thank a few folks that have supported this past year and helped me get through to today. Without the love of people like @ladyfirefox @jecht @vexaltyn @doncella @tcha @loz829 @sova @megm289 @pointman11 and more I wouldn't be creating this posts. I know the people featured in all of these posts drop a little love, too, but without being mentioned in an appreciation post they drop by to leave love even on my depressing little updates. Then we have people like @epyk and @kpax spreading smiles to keep up with my favorites like @channy, @fresa, and @silver. @mouse is always good for a smile and @silvery is an absolute cutie when she sheds a little smile for us lucky bastards. @jubileegirl always leaves some positive notes in her posts that cheer me on up. I could probably go on, but these names all popped into my ringing ears just now. I also want to drop a little shout out to the super cute @erismorn because whether it's a blog post/Instagram or in my dreams she's always making me smile. (More on the ringing at the end of the post)
@erikabrasil_ in Freud Explains by @thimeow
There are certain photographers here that I admit I've developed a huge crush on including the likes of @coolicio, @fromlimbo, @kasha, @penny, @paloma, and even the sexy man beast @tripodski (sorry, dude 😂) as well as many of the aforementioned names listed in above sets... do I really crush this much? Don't answer that. Ehem, so @thimeow may be the biggest crush of all, hence how I discovered this smart little book nerd right here. I love a girl in glasses and if you're going to hail from Brazil then that's just asking for my heart to be doubly crushed. I love a beautiful brown eyed girl. How do you say "I love you beautiful brown eyes" in Portuguese? The words are of no importance as the emotions I feel overwhelming my heart with this beauty explaining Freud's words... waxing philosophy. Can this be any more perfect? 😍💕
@janesinner in All The Way Up by @lady
If I need to explain these cute freckles or spell out her beautifully curved body then you haven't been around SG... at all. Between @ivory and @janesinner they have my heart on lockdown and I am beyond words. As I said in my commentary, I would only be preaching to the choir if I dare spoke of her beauty. Hot damn!
@dollie in Urban Undressings by @just_sick
Not So Dirty Dollie by @kezia was more than worthy of that FP spot as she earned her first SOTD, but I am still surprised Playing With Dollie didn't take up a spot on the front page. No matter what the status of that cute little set it's nice to see her pop up in MR again with that fantastic hair I still absolutely love and her own cute self hanging out with some urban graf writing. I love seeking out some hidden gems of graffiti when I visit cities, but I think this distraction would have had me tripping on my shoelaces if I were lucky enough to sneak by this shoot. @dollie is a dream and I know my eyes are chasing those stripes... hah.. not funny? Anyway, I do believe you should check out her sets past and current and fall in love with me!
@rubyalexia in Creepin It Real by @jimmymild
Between @niallpatterson and @tripodski I developed a crush bigger than my heart on this beauty. Leave it to @raphaelite and I'm biting my knuckles between the two. I don't think she gets better with each set so to speak so much as she looks abso-fuggin-lutely gorgeous and every new shoot is just an extra dimension of her perfect dimensions. Did I lose you? I almost lost me because she's has the sexiest smile and the most entrancing eyes as well. If we're going to creep it real then we best tape my mouth shut because I will easily spill my heart from my sleeve on that couch if given the chance. She's a rockstar alright and that's all I'm seeing. 😍 Okay, I see hearts, too.
@jessicajoyy____ in Sugar Bunny by @coolicio
"@jessicajoyy____ is, without a doubt, an attractive woman with superbly crafted curves and a smile that just lit up my heart like a warming fireplace on a cold winter's day (which is literally the weather outside right now). Her almond shaped eyes the perfect partner to her lusciously plump lips that send my head spinning. Oh my! Though I could continue on for quite the length as many of you know, the real draw to me was @coolicio. I would snatch up Jessica's heart in an instant if I bumped into her in the street, but this shoot is quite possibly my favorite. Some of my favorites have included @karanlit, @kettle, and @lady with @akiramai's shy debut one of the most emotionally inspirational. This set might not feature some creative handmade costuming, the tender emotions of a young girl trying out SG, the warmest smile from the kindest heart I've ever met, or one of the most amazing photographers to model now and again between shoots, but somehow this set worked out perfectly. It's a sensual masterpiece that's as sweet as it's title implies, warm and invigorating with the youthful energy emanating through playful poses. There are sets that evoke specific personality traits and easily sway my heart, but this ones seems to call forth a few different pieces of the greater recipe that works so wonderfully I barely need to play 20 questions before deciding I might somewhat kinda sorta be in love already. If this set doesn't claim high praise and rise to front page quickly it would be a bitter mistake as it speaks highly the very creativity and art of SG. That's not to misplace the many other beautiful sets that hit MR daily, but few sets truly blow me away as a whole unlike the women that tend to flood me with emotion every... how often are sets released? 😏 Fantastic set. Simple as that."
It's a front page set guarantee. If this set doesn't make SOTD I might just retire from creating these blogs. I know I post a LOT of beautiful women and many times I actually see half the sets in my posts make it to front page rather quickly (sometimes slowly), but this one really blew me away by both model and photographer. I'll leave it at that.
What do you say? Front page or Xander retires from Appreciation posts? Let me know what you think!
As always, I would love to hear your thoughts. I know some of you may actually read my multitude of words and sometimes the words are just skimmed. Admit it, there's no shame in skimming a long post when you have a real life and probably a partner to get back to. Believe me, if I had a partner... ehem... anyway, I would love to know your thoughts on previous or upcoming posts. Share with me your feelings on these sets, my posts, and anything you might like! I'm here to post for YOU so I appreciate the feedback.
I included a few more sets than expected and still have a little time to relax in front of the TV before bed. As some of you know I came down with the sickness and my ears have been ringing much like the Disturbed song for the past two hours with sharp pains a little like a death metal drummer using machetes to keep up an almost speed metal beat. It all started during the last couple hours of work on Friday and Saturday at 4am I woke up dead. I have the worst luck in life, don't I? I do believe it's stress related and my body was worn just enough to have a compromised immune system. I'll be dealing with this for a while, but I needed to share this post to cheer myself up. You know I love sharing my love with you whether you're the model/photographer or someone that might have missed out sharing the love on any of these sets. I love you. Simple.
I hope you enjoyed your weekend. May your week be filled with love and light. If it's not, you know where to find me and I'll do what I can to make it happen. 😉
Love,
Xander
Lastly, much appreciation to @rambo and @missy for making this site what it is and allowing some of these great posts by members to be featured on the front page among the amazing sets and fun posts by all the lovely ladies. You two (as well as the rest of the SG staff) have not only made the dreams of models and photographers come alive for almost two decades now but you've made some of mine come true as well. - feel free to pass along this message. All the love to you. 💗💗💗
