Yesterday I sat staring at this blank screen trying to think of a good introduction and find inspiration to another appreciation post and found myself sinking into some great music on Youtube. I shared a few tracks in my previous post along with a questionnaire one song inspired, but I'm sure you can find it if you were curious about the music or what secrets and inner feelings I revealed within so I won't self-promote a silly little post. I spent time checking out the latest "Soundcloud rapper" Baby Goth and found she was actually quite attractive and had a really beautiful voice prior to joining the likes of Lil Xan and all these Soundcloud mumble rappers that spit nonsense about drugs, sex, and unreality yet somehow they all get grouped into "emo rap" when they sure as hell don't touch upon my emotions or experiences. Put on a facade to gain likes or give in to find love, but true love will find you in the darkest shadows and within the deepest caves if you leave your heart open.
I sat here thinking about how @nickstone has had my back for, what was it, 10 years or so? I thought about the love @bookcouple and @chroi would leave on my blog posts and reach out every time I felt I needed a hand to lift me back up after I've fallen. @kaptaine's always texting me asking how I am as if a little flu or bruise is the end of the world yet he gives heart like he had two and was more than ready to gift it to me without a second thought. @hiptobes is always acting like that best bud and brother that will sit and chat about cute girls, rustle up a little emotion as if we'd actually duke it out over a cutie pie like @kpax, and sends me cool stuff in the mail (more on that later, but thanks, brother!). @kungfury is always back and forth about our shared interest in games and mental health as he hits me up on a regular basis.
@gnomi and @redkaya are the sweetest ladies to worry about me more than I worry about myself, but they always keep me entertained with smiles and stories beyond the realms of SG. @kaliva, I swear, is a legit angel dropping more love than I could ever hope to give with a billion words and thousands of hearts across posts on the site (and occasionally Instagram). @gadget is as real and honest as it gets and I love every revelation and push to make me a better person as she does her own soul searching and ended up introducing me to my "Superbowl" as I binged "Russian Doll" on Netflix last night. Screw dudes in tight pants running back and forth like idiots when I can reflect on kindness, love, space time continuum, and reflect on my own life and how I go about it.
I guess I'm saying this post is dedicated to love and kindness at every level.
@aelin in From Eden by @fromlimbo
I love a fresh brewed cup of coffee in the morning or as a perk when conversation runs well into the night. @aelin first sparked my interest with random conversation not so long ago and I soon found my way to her sets with @kasha really drawing me into Broken Shore leaving me wanting even more of this beautiful mind within a slim frame. Along comes this caffeine-laden so perfectly brewed itself by the adorable and talented @fromlimbo that finds my heart not so secretly trying to jump into her back pocket on a regular basis just to follow her around. The beautiful woman sitting before the camera exposed more than my heart was ever ready for even after seeing her fully nude in many sets before. This set feels so much more like the mind that I'd come to connect with over random thoughts and her appearance more heavenly than I realized not because @fromlimbo set to find the perfect angle or due to a little eyeliner and proper framing, but because this photographer knows well how to catch an intimate moment. Intimacy is far more than lady bits and drool worthy imagery, but following through with the belief that cameras could steal souls and showing us exactly that. Definitely my favorite @aelin set yet and very easily one of my most favorite Limbo sets to date I'm happy to share this set with you and hope you, too, will find the same joy and delight I did with every sip. It's her time to shine and turn pink, agreed? #HelpHerTurnPink
@nilly in Untitled by @talena
I fell behind in my commentaries and, luckily, the talented and amazing person we know as @leighgabriel actually introduced me to this lovely babe. Proving that Chilean ladies are some of the most breath-taking beauties to blossom in the heat, @nilly comes straight from Tattooine with her Star Wars inspired set that lets us know that not all Princesses need saving. Featuring curves that leave my mind mystified and my heart thumping more rapidly than an all out blaster battle between Jedi and clones, her smile lingers on the tip of my grey matter like she played a Jedi Mind Trick on me. Her eyes a fresh brewed medium blend coffee instilling an energetic pulse that resounds throughout my entire body. Her lips even without the shape of a smile begs a tango with my own speechless simple American lips. The sun may kiss her curves in a way that could make any man jealous and leave my knees weak, but even in the shadows I'm sure this bright beauty could shine more than anyone might readily believe. #HelpHerTurnPink
@kindsoul in Delicate by @tripodski
No beauty has embarrassed me more than the sweet kind soul that is @kindsoul, not because she did anything beyond offering love and soft beauty covered in sensational art but because I revealed silly naivety in regards to preconceptions of beauty with first words spoken. After 3 very amazing sets reaching an average of 2.1k+ hearts, it's still amazing that she's not reached front page or gone pink quite yet, but that trifecta of @tripodski sets still remains among my favorite series. Her smile matching the love and sincerity in her eyes, it's nigh impossible to not develop a crush or feel something strike a littler deeper into the heart well. The amount of ink caressing her every divine inch barely enough to cover the thousand word poem spilt from longing, heartache, and complete admiration. This delicate beauty could appear to be a much harder soul than she is, but this Living Canvas rises like the Phoenix and holds her wingspan to take you along for the ride. She's not an easy one to forget when she's a rainbow fox that swings by without question and settles nicely cuddled into the frame of mind. She's one of my favorite hopefuls that I've not had the honor of regular conversation with, but the few times we've talked she's left an impression that finds my sleeved heart in open hands before her generous words. #HelpHerTurnPink
@ohsammiii in The Colour of Lust by @jimmymild
I always reveal a little too much when I open my heart and share with you my feelings, but if I must dig a little deeper into my interest in @ohsammiii I'll tell you it all began with her hair. Though you you may have been lucky enough to see the shy girl with pink hair roaming the woods if you were around in her earlier days you might not realize both the cut/style and color had my heart buzzing like crazy. I've always been one to keep short haired girls in my line of sight and have been lucky enough to date a couple, but combined with such luxurious curves and a rainbow array of ink and design settled neatly upon sultry flesh I've been an infatuated fool combining a recipe of lust and love that even she may not be fully aware. You can believe that those telling eyes as lovely as shade of dreams and sincerity they are will transport the lot of you to a heaven you briefly experience when you see her lips light up with a smile. In such a brief time this latest set is catching up to @crisro's wondrous set Sweetness and though I still have hopes for that particular set I surely hope this one finally sees her the well deserved pink status she's yearned since early on. After working with so many talented photographers from @niallpatterson to @darkmoonmedia and the lovely @gemmaedwardsuk it's killing me to see her hit nearly 2k with each set and still be sparking inspiration among so many while remaining one of the most talented hopefuls that could easily compete with some of the greats. Luckily, we all know it's not about competition but helping others rise to their full potential... but come on, she easily ranks as one of my favorites to hit that professional level with such perfect poses and ripe emotion.
Now that you know my secret and that I'm so very in love with this lovely lass I hope you, too, can find a little extra love and let's see her pink. Maybe then we could see her work with that UK beast @tripodski or some of your other favorite photographers. #HelpHerTurnPink
@chef in Azarath Metrion Zinthos by @zen
Did you think I could post a blog without mention of pizza? Alright, you could likely prove me wrong, but who loves pizza more than @chef and I? She's more Teen Titans Go! with a playful heart and love of life than serious Teen Titans, but this Raven will have you going straight Beast Boy howl as you ask for a few extra slices as an excuse to sit around and take a break from saving the city. Though I'm sure she could make her own kick ass pie, I think sitting around and ordering out is probably for the best as every extra magical moment counts between alien invasions, superpowered baddies, and the rest of that nonsense that happens between breaks. Looking great with purple hair (you knew I'd say that, right?) it was only right she took a break from the Starship Enterprise and stuck around here on Earth. @merryboudoir might be waiting impatiently with Scotty, but I'm trying to learn a little magic with Raven so she may have to wait that much longer. I don't drink and love pizza so maybe before you head out to work we can "cheers!" between a couple slices? 😉💜 #HelpHerTurnPink
@teehynes in Part of Your World by @aurralee
I absolutely love the new hair on the always adorable @aurralee, but if anyone was going to steal away my heart from the Queen of the Babe Lair herself it would be @teehynes. At first I might blame that bodacious booty for mesmerizing this weak and simple heart beating in my chest, but the fact that she plays with snakes and has a super adorable smile as well? Turns out it takes more than just a cute bum to steal me away from the passionate purple love I have for her recruiter, but have you ever seen eyes more beautiful than a clear Canadian sky during summer? This land based Ariel anchored my heart with her debut set and I'm not even mad about stepping out of the Lavender Kiss shower to find myself in the pink and blue vortex of romance. Okay, so maybe I'm the one going full Eric for this mermaid out of water, but there are 1.7k others currently feeling the same about now. #HelpHerTurnPink
Damn, what was this Hopeful week? Between all my selections so far it sure seems like we saw a lot of hopefuls dropping into MR and a few are pretty amazing debuts! I sure hope you're enjoying meeting some new ladies or even seeing a few you may have missed while gazing upon those lovely ladies already seated upstairs. I'm already feeling woozy with the amount of love I have on the sets above, but I'm crazy and can't wait to share even more with you! I've barely gotten started and have an entire blog or two still planned after this one! Go grab some coffee or tea and let's continue, shall we?
@irana in Rozovaya Lyubov by @fromlimbo
This soft pink haired cutie is fairly new and found her way into my sights through the lovely @fromlimbo. I truly wish I could shed a lot more light on this attractive lady, but I'm running solely on the heartache those eyes left me with. Featuring some fairly nice ink and some soft curves that leave me wanting to see more as 2019 starts unfolding into the later months I sure hope we see her turn the same color as her hair so we can praise not only this amazing photographer revealing enough to leave us lovelorn but to see so much more from this selfie taking babe. Her bum may say "goddess" and I'm inclined to agree as she needn't say a single word and already I'm lingering in heaven. At least that's how I feel drifting softly above the ground while gazing deep into those eyes. #HelpHerTurnPink
@lauretta in Welcome Home by @r_girardi
This welcoming has me wishing the gorgeous @lauretta was in my life waiting at home for me. I'd be leaving even on my days off from work for just long enough to walk right back through the door and fall gently into her sweet arms. She has a smile more killer than her curves and shines brighter than the light penetrating the clear glass of the windows in this set. Did I mention she could leave you dizzy if you put a pole in front of her and let her do her thing? Well, you might not be as ready for those mesmerizing moves as you think so why not remain calm a minute and take in this set while pretending she came home to you as well? I already know you are because those lovely red locks wouldn't be without my fingers tangling up within and... ehem... this is my fantasy and probably not for public consumption so let's just say we're so close to 2k with this set that it'll be nice to see it hit that (and beyond) shortly after I hit "post" on this blog. Let's show it some more love and welcome this set to front page soon, eh?
@harmohh in Chill Time by @just_sick
Allow me to quote myself because I rather enjoyed my own commentary on this one, "If it wasn't for @harmohh 's delectable eyes crafted of the sweetest chocolates and her smile sculpted from the warmth of the sun then I would surely lose myself in thought over her magnificent curves. I could trace along her frame with unblinking eyes like an art student attending his first nude modeling class and examine every ounce of ink and every word published on her frame, but that smile is an addiction waiting to happen. If it wasn't for distance and a large sea between us I would be daydreaming with my chin in hand across from the bar, a few tables over at the local coffee shop, or... you get the picture. Her smile is a dream and her eyes are a delight. She's an inspiration that happens to look great in her glorious skin. @just_sick did a fantastic follow up that's sure to follow @shaine 's beautiful Springtime dream."
I still find myself trying to read her thigh because I'm such a sucker for words yet the tiny print, distracting curves, and sometimes angels (imperfect for reading anyway) are just enough to keep me from satisfying my hunger. Though it might be easily published and read via a blog post it just isn't the same as reading the literature actually published on flesh and based in a love of the words now permanently residing there yearning to be read aloud. Beyond that, I'm finding myself lost in that smile again and again no matter which set I choose to review for another moment of inspiration or just plain admiration. She's already on her way to a second SOTD with this one so let's make this time to chill an international holiday and see it front page for the world to see (again). 😍💕
@elisa in Summer on a Stick by @msilveira
Normally, when I think of gorgeous redheads that fulfill every fantasy and leave me wishing I had my very own to keep the fire lit in the bedroom (not exactly what you're thinking, allow me this romance for a moment, please) I might list @rouge, @sirenerouge, and @leemalee, but this particular one just melted the polar ice caps from thousands of miles away and we can thank @msilveira for that global warming! Sure, we can linger on Ohhh Sheet by @lucianamacedo or Gotta Catch Them All by @shotbykhan followed by @kalincamak's own The Perks of Being a Wallflower, but this kitchen set leave me wondering exactly how spicy the menu will be as I swelter in heat before the oven is even clicked on. Featuring some very amazing compositions full of color and shape as she takes the form of lust, love, infatuation, and almost any form of interest you could possible harbor deep inside your chest and donning a melting ring of popsicles as a halo, these is nothing that could leave me yearning more for a single moment in the presence of this Brazilian femme fatale. Her pert bosom held confidently forward atop a slim but muscular frame is a breath-taking sight almost unbelievable to anyone who might be unfamiliar with the truthful beauty of the model or honest nature of the photographer. I'm still find ways to word my inspiration or hungering for ways to express admiration to earn a piece of this woman's heart, but @sirena and @jacqueline best be wary as this spicy heartburn steals bits of my love even from them! (Don't worry, ladies, I honestly and will forever hold the utmost love for the two of you as you've proven time and time again that you have amazing hearts that will always be cherished fondly by my own beating heart.) @HelpThisSetGoFrontPageYesterday
Let's keep the blog alive just a wee bit longer as we come full circle with a few last sets shall we? Are you still with me during another extended blog session? Wanting to see more? Wanting to go to bed? How do you prefer these blogs, lengthy and filled with enough content to keep you busy for an evening or shorter so you can take the sets in stride? Let me know. I do realize sometimes I cover any range from 5 sets to 15 at any given time depending on my mindset and time of day, but I'd like to find a happy medium for my readers if you would be so kind to leave any suggestions... or even agree it's cool the way it is?
@eveel in Come to the Dark Side
So you thought @nilly was the only one recently releasing a Star Wars themed set? Well, this extra hot Brazilian not only featuring a smoking hot set shot by @msilveira, Its All Happening, but also has one of my most favored sets across the whole of SG with Lost in Wonderland by @maripedrazz. Seeing the connection as we come full circle between theme, location, photographer? I don't know who thought joining this sexy droid was anything like joining the dark side but beyond the color of her hair and those darkly seductive eyes, the cute buns on her head and below that robot suit are very much an enlightening experience. Some princesses may not need saving but it appears some droids don't need any help either. In fact, it appears Vader himself might need an assist escaping this beautiful Force vortex of love unless he decides to quit conquering the galaxy and get back to the love he once abandoned before going full dark side. Her sexy sleek curves aren't quite the same as you might find on an R2 unit, but were those really the droids you were looking for? Be Honest.
@torro in Sweetest Sin by @madnessphotography
Before I finish of this blog post with the final set to round it out I wanted to make sure I roped @torro into this post because I felt this set to be very fitting for my particular mood as I created this blog. I'll be honest and say I didn't fall in love at first sight when I first saw Hazy by @brooklyn and even the amazing @caustix didn't necessarily steal my breath with Pastel, but when I witnessed the brutally sexy Lucille by @flvffz I could swear @torro hit me with a Nerf version of Lucille pretty hard because suddenly I was feeling the prior named sets and crushing harder than I thought. It was as if she went full Neegan on my skull, bur rather than ending up another Glenn I woke up like Wade Wilson. Just follow me with this one. I was slowly being hypnotized by those fantastically whimsical eyes and I don't ever want to go back, but here I found myself in this @madnessphotography set and I was floored. I loved that cosplay and Pastel deserved SOTD, but the particular intimacy in this set has me wishing I was her next door neighbor constantly finding an excuse to knock on her door. I could lose myself in those eyes on a regular basis and her smile ain't too bad either. 😉
I missed her on the first swing, but that glorious petite frame is one I will suffer the sweetest sin over and her bum has also left me with a sweet little fantasy churning in my mind. Love at first sight may or may not be a real thing, but don't let quick judgement blind you into a tragic heartbreak when you could walk in with eyes wide open and be doing like I am right now and asking for @torro's number... you know if she's allowed to have friends beyond the lucky love in her life. (For full reference see my prior post referencing the Angrypicnic Youtube videos.) I tried. 😅💔
@asxna in Coffee At Dawn by @niallpatterson
Though I don't recommend drinking enough coffee to keep you awake for a 24 hour period, I had my morning brew to wake me up after a decent workout and ended the night with a pot to fuel this blog post. As the caffeine winds down and the magnesium complex and melatonin kick in to make me drowsy enough to get a few hours of sleep before returning to do this again, well, today (in a few hours) I wanted to share my love of coffee and the also lovely @asxna. She may be as equally brutal as Neegan when she shares her Mortal Kombat Fan-Tasise by @andrealaz, but the truth is she's really just a sweetheart underneath all that blood. Hah! No blood was used in the aforementioned set, but you get the idea. She kicked it with @tripodski for a set and now we find a shared love of coffee and the only thing missing from this set is me. That is, if she'd ever have me for a coffee and conversation at dusk or dawn, as long as there's a sight as pretty as her and plenty of exchanged words then I would never turn down a sweet moment as that. I know my dear friend @kungfury will agree that this is quite the set that will surely see her on the front page and earn her the coveted title of "pink", but while she's still a hopeful I would like to raise my own mug of coffee to celebrate the inspiration she has offered me from her very first set through today and offer all the love over her much cherished beauty.
It's been another "Monday" at work and I was fairly exhausted but really wanted to deliver this blog post to you, my friends. Sleep is nothing compared to inspiration and dedication to the art of words and the emotion of love. I love everyone I've posted about within this appreciation post and always love the folks that drop by to read or click on that heart in the corner. I do appreciate the love. Be sure to let SG know how much you appreciate these post by clicking that heart because it doesn't just inspire me to write more but helps influence the members across the site to choose their next SOTD.
I bid thee a good night if you're here in the US/Canada/South America area and hope you have a good day if you're pretty much everywhere else.
Don't forget to visit my Photographer Appreciation blog to leave the names of any photographers you would like to see me post about in an upcoming blog. The most votes gets the next post. We already saw @lady get one so let's see some more love and see another photographer take the spotlight in February, okay?
Also, if you're interested in doing a little Valentine's Day contest (for the female models/photographers) and want to be my "Valentine" I'd love to treat you to something, but I would love some feedback if you agree it would be cool and what I might be able to do. Amazon or SG swag as a prize? 💕
Would you be my Valentine?
Also, don't forget to show some love for fellow blogger @ropers71 as I have not mentioned him in this post, but he posts some pretty extensive blogs covering entire regions and you are sure to find some lovely ladies as well as some nice posts about hopefuls that are now vintage news because many have gone pink over this past year following his posts! Lots more to read and see.
Sweet dreams and have a wonderful week,
Xander
ps Another follow up post SOON!
