It’s raining LAQ

It’s raining LAQ appliers. Apparently all you have to do to get more options for skins is say so 😮 I am thinking it’s more lucky timing than anything, but I’ll take it. This is Violet, one of three new appliers for LAQ heads from my favorite, Glam Affair. I have tried all my older GA skins on my LAQ… Read more →

The formula

You can say this is the formula I default to when left to style something on a hot and stormy weekend. The formula is neutral and when it works…it really works for me. I actually started with this unique head ornament from katat0nik. I love the contrast of something a little extra, with a relative monochrome overall look. My skin… Read more →

Pink Fuel on LAQ

This is the new Pink Fuel applier for LAQ bento heads, Melody. I absolutely fell in love with this crystal tone in particular. The applier comes with numerous eyebrow color options, two eyelid options, makeups for eyes and lips, AND freckled options! It’s a lot. The price reflects all that customization and is much higher than other skin appliers for… Read more →

I made an exception for a romper

I don’t like “rompers.” I don’t even like the word, “romper.” I feel like a romper is something that a pre-teen girl wears and it looks perfectly appropriate on her but much less so on a grown, adult woman. Then, I made an exception for this romper. There was just something about the textures I liked and had to have.… Read more →

Charming

Is it any surprise I found this bow charming? Is it a surprise I find any bow charming? I am nothing if not predictable some days xD Spring has burst onto the scene in Boston where I live and yesterday was close to 90 degrees! WTF? So, I am extending my spring-like fashion streak in kind with a casual look… Read more →

A penchant for lace

Lace: so sexy, decadent, and seductive. I cannot believe I used to hate this fabric IRL. It’s true. It used to make me itch – but I didn’t know that was only because it was cheap and I was 16. Times have changed. In my opinion, no other fabric understands women’s bodies like lace. Also, it doesn’t have to be… Read more →

A case for champagne

I’m making a case for champagne with this dress from Azul. I have never worn inventory from this creator before, and the Zaria dress is unique, with bell sleeves and a satin overlay bodice. Very, very pretty and so fun to style. It also comes with flexi parts (not shown). I remember when flexi came to the grid (yes, my… Read more →

Both Sides Now

As the snow continues to fall here in Boston, I sit quietly listening to Joni Mitchell. You know the song from Love Actually, where Emma Thompson’s character unwraps a Christmas gift from her husband, and it’s not the necklace she saw him buy? That went to his secretary -_- I have always loved the song Both Sides Now so very… Read more →

With a Twist

A dreamy winter day in soft, pink sweaters, minimal makeup and casual hair. I love the new Susan skin applier from Glam Affair at the Epiphany. I don’t have enough points for the  Polar tone exclusives yet but I am working on it. Gacha with a twist…of control? Gacha with a twist of control While it’s true that gacha is… Read more →

Can’t. Keep. Up.

You know you’re addicted to something when you have to acquire whatever it is. No matter what. You. Must. Have. It. This is how I am with Glam Affair skins. This appears to be a common problem with a lot of us. I also have this problem with hair, but it’s not just one designer >.< Read more →

Tangerine Sweet

One of my favorite colors is orange. A sweet tangerine orange. It’s a color that suits those of us with fair skin and dark hair, in particular I think. It’s a hard color for everyone to wear, but an easy one to accessorize with no matter your coloring. As Springtime creeps into SL (it hasn’t arrived at my RL location… Read more →

Making it fit

I have worn several pieces from Seul over the last couple of months and have been generally happy with them. Very on trend and modern. This is the Emile playsuit from this round of Uber. I discovered that wearing this particular dress with my Maitreya Lara mesh body created a few issues because of the plunging neckline versus the alpha… Read more →

All ribbons and pearls

These Boho Loops from Ane sparked my whole look today. Ribbons and pearls (technically, beads) bohemian style. I pretty much love everything I am wearing. The small pops of powder blue, the realism of the linen dress, and the sweet sandals by Pure Poison. I have to say I have really enjoyed the last several releases of Pure Poison shoes… Read more →

Dreaming of Spring

As the snow begins to fall once again here in Boston, I am ready for Spring – even if that means rain. I don’t care as long as it’s not snow. I had been looking for something to wear with this beautiful skirt in the week since Shiny Shabby opened, and I found it in this Glam Affair Gypsy tank… Read more →

Rounding it up

Some of the items I have newly acquired all in one place! With a bunch of new events coming up (I am looking at you, Uber and Arcade), I wanted to make sure some of these special items didn’t get lost in my inventory, which this time around, I am working very hard to keep very small. I am truly… Read more →
