Down down the rabbit hole

I was inspired by this sweet, whimsical bag from yumyums and decided it made me feel a bit like Alice…but in some kind of Victorian twist on the tale.   .   And in keeping with things that are slightly left of center, I bring you Watson, my owl. I honestly don’t know a thing about the show Twin Peaks,… Read more →

Over the Top

Sometimes when I go too traditional (in either life), I need to shake things up, go a little overboard, be over the top. But still be me. I mixed some bold hairs with some of the newness at Maitreya, who released dresses, tops and skirts just for the Maitreya Lara mesh body. Rawr! Pink glitter is so overpowered.   The… Read more →

Do you ever wish…?

That you could walk around in your real life with fairy wings? I do. I wish I could wear my fairy wings, my big spoon, my foxy socks. All the time. One of the greatest things about SL is that it’s easy to express yourself, whether you’re an artist, builder or just a dreamer. I do wish I could find… 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 →

Adventures in Gacha-ing…

Gacha is a new phenomenon since I came back to SL. It existed in one form or another way back when, but there wasn’t an entire category dedicated to it. In general, I am not a huge fan. I understand the way it works, but it’s frustrating to spend money on something not being able to guarantee what you get.… Read more →

u.f.o.

I raved about how much I loved the items I picked up from u.f.o at Shiny Shabby. I wanted more but had only seen them at a few events off and on. After some searching, I did find the main shop. I picked up a bunch of items that I rather love. Simple, so well made, and beautifully subtle. They… Read more →

Taking risks

Anna Wintour is one of my heroes. She is fascinating and mysterious, unless you believe everything written in The Devil Wears Prada. One of the things I love about her is that no matter what she is wearing (I mean aside from her sunglasses), she will look strong but still very feminine. She doesn’t consider herself a powerful person, yet… 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 →
