It’s one of my favorite things in Second Life beauty: Powder Pack LeLutka delivery day! Did it come through for me this round? Welllllllll…. What’s in the box? Yes, mostly. I think I am spoiled by all my IRL makeup hauls with beautiful summer palettes (today one of the most anticipated palettes of the whole year launched!). I am a… Read more →
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 →
Did I overdo it? I have been known to overdo the cute from time to time. This might be one of those times but it seemed apropos for the weather, which has finally turned sparkling and summerlike, without melting me. A couple of notes: I’m wearing the new head from LAQ. I’m still on that kick. My collection grows. I… Read more →
I just got back from a mini vacation and was thrilled to see that Glam Affair (and Tableau Vivant) reopened, completely redesigned, with lots of new inventory. Most notable: completely new skin tones and body appliers. I wasn’t sure what to make of that, given that all our GA skin tones have been built right into the Maitreya Lara body.… Read more →
Here in the Eastern US, we’re in the middle of a vicious heat wave. It’s well over 100 in the shade in some areas – even by the water 😮 I’m keeping cool IRL by staying inside and playing dress-up. Even my avatar couldn’t bear to put on more than a wisp of a dress. And what a wisp it… Read more →
Today is unofficially “get away” day. That is, the Friday before our major July 4th holiday, when millions of Americans take to the roads and drive to various summer hot spots on the coasts to spend the week doing too much sunning and drinking. It’s a day for sucking it up and not complaining about the traffic. For me, it’s… Read more →
My little white dress (LWD) from Rebel Gal, the less celebrated sister to the infamous LBD. I have always preferred the LWD, honestly. I was thankful to find it at Uber – where again, I experienced a mostly unsuccessful attempt at suitable fashion finds for my taste or blogging plans. I notice a real imbalance this time of year in… Read more →
I think I can safely say that when I finally made it over to Summerfest 2018, I didn’t expect it to produce an example of “Unsummer.” I’m kind of sorry, but at the same time, I’m doing me, as always. I don’t blog a lot of swimwear in SL because…I don’t ever do anything that would require it. I do… Read more →
I really had no idea where I would end up when I began styling this look – which started with new hair from [e], Elikatira. Just my avatar on my platform wearing nothing but a braid ;D It turned out a little retro, with hints of a little something blue. Also new is my skin that I am completely crushing… Read more →
It’s been a while since I wore a Catwa head. I always *want* to but it’s like iPhone vs. Android. You are generally either one or the other. The skin that got me to give my Catya head another try? Radija from Studio Exposure. This creator has long made my absolute most favorite makeups (so much so that they have… Read more →
I’m listening to On Ur Mind while I rifle through all my new inventory from Collabor88. I skipped all the bikinis and went right for the hairs and this jumpsuit. And, you had to know I would also go wild for the scarves from LaGyo <3 If you have already visited, did you happen to notice which designer has a… Read more →
I’m not usually a big fan of the puff. You know, the puffy sleeves, puffy shoulders type of fashion. It reminds me of the 80s and not in a fond remembrance kind of way. But one puff? I’ll manage with one puff, please. Especially when it looks like this. I decided to go much heavier on my accessories for this… Read more →
You know I’m not one for an overdose of color in too many posts. But this look evolved from a happy memory of a cherry, orange and grape flavored summer Popsicle. You know the original kind that was multiple flavors perfectly blended to create a ridiculously mind blowing sugary treat? Yum! I wonder if they still exist. I loved this… Read more →
I decided on another summer Sunday sport look – because for me, summer starts here and now. A few things of particular interest to call out in my look. Let me tackle the “controversial” one first: the hair/cap combo (color change/hide options). But you can’t buy this without quite a hitch. Read on… The evolution of the “VIP Group” If… Read more →
Dresses are actually much easier to style than anything else, I find. Here’s a good example of what I consider a perfect day dress. Just the kind you can throw on and go. It looks like it took a lot more effort than it did actually. I paired my simple look with black and white strapped heels and a mini… Read more →
