New Shimmera just dropped!! I finally finished Xyla's full ref :)
This is Xyla, one of the Pyrefei’s most respected elder, also known as the “Firebrand”. She is compassionate yet unmoving, a tactical genius, and master of beast and machine, and she has two adopted children (Fen and Ire).
I don't have any new lore for her to share rn but she actually has a lot of it given she's one of the longer lived Shimmera lol. There's a lot of important stuff she's been involved so I have to sit down and do a write up of all of that and I want to make sure give it the time it deserves.
Today's polish is #500!!!!!!!! 🎉💃🎉💃🎉 😱🤯 This manicure reminds me of the first milestone post I made for nail polish #100. Like today, I wanted something festive so, like today, I picked a chunky glitter topper over a creme polish. I had very little experience using toppers like that and the finished manicure wasn't what I'd wanted. This manicure is what I'd wanted. Seeing how much better I've gotten at manicures like this is such a great feeling. And the reason it looks so much better is because of all of the glitter placement manis I've done for matching manis with @lesmotsdemoi. Things have been hectic as of late, but I can't wait to do more matching manis soon! ❤️ I also know I wouldn't have made it to post #500 without the encouragement of @julcheninred @phdmama @l0vegl0wsinthedark @lesmotsdemoi and everyone who likes, reblogs and comments on my posts. 💖💖💖 This is Once Upon a Time from Cirque over It's Brittany Beach from Orly.
Olga Brown was born in present-day Poland to a African father and European mother. Best known by the stage name "Miss Lala," Brown worked in various circuses across Europe as an expert acrobat. Her death-defying signature act was being suspended from the rafters of the big top by her teeth. This is how Edgar Degas depicted her in his famous 1879 painting "Miss La La at the Cirque Fernando."
