I am leaving in a few weeks for London and then Paris \o/ so I spent today doing some Sunday shopping. I meant to post this before I left but…oops! In Second Life, I am wearing the still relatively new Bento head from fiore, coupled with a fresh new skin from The Skinnery. I would *love* to see an applier… Read more →

Some Disenchanted Evening
Disenchanted isn’t a word I use often when it comes to fun things like fashion and beauty. But disenchanted is how I have been feeling despite there being some really good new releases around. I have been gobbling them all up but then, I’m unable to really be happy about how they come together for blogging. I think I need… Read more →
Pretty Primrose
I love a pretty primrose yellow. I think it’s probably an especially tough tone to get right in a pixelated world and often looks too mustard-y in my favorite windlights. But all my pretty primrose accessories here in this Springy look are anything but “mustard-y.” I <3 a sunny day – or an outfit that makes me think of a… Read more →
Elikatira returns
Elika is someone I have known for a decade 😮 If you don’t know her, please let me be a little hyperbolic for a moment. She is incredibly witty, funny, gifted, beautiful, patriotic, and most importantly, a dedicated and amazing mother. I adore her. I also happen to adore her hair in Second Life – obviously – so with much… Read more →
Copper Tones
If you happen to be a follower of runway trends then you know metallics, and copper in particular, are big trends in fashion this season. Quite honestly, who can keep up? It’s always “fashion week” somewhere! Regardless, I do love metallic rose golds and copper tones. So warm and summery and something sorely needed on another rainy day in Boston.… Read more →
Add something?
Clearly I didn’t follow the sage advice by Coco Chanel who said, “Before you leave the house, look in the mirror and take one thing off.” Instead, I decided to add something. Or many somethings. I was an a roll 😀 Minimalist is my normal vibe, but I was really feeling the beautiful Easter egg rose color of this new… Read more →
Powder Pack hits the spot
Powder Pack for LeLutka really hit the spot this month for me. You may recall I was still on the fence with this subscription box and whether I would continue with it after this third LeLutka pack. Once I saw the list of participating creators, I was in. For the most part, I was not disappointed. Smart Spend Not surprisingly,… Read more →
On my shopping list
I have to be very brief today so here is a look at a few things on my shopping list. Led by this summery wrapped top and light jacket, I admit it’s a feast of neutrals. I love the look and am always happy when enfant terrible pops up with another example of what it does so well – soft,… Read more →
I love a good sale
I love a good sale. And I wait for months and months for really good ones at my favorite sites or stores offline. Right now IRL I am stocking up at net-a-porte’s seasonal sale and in Second Life, I’m stocking up at Rowne. I think the sale probably ends today (!!) but it’s worth a stop over if you have… Read more →
Foundational Staples
I quickly browsed the wares at Uber this morning and at first I was like, “meh…” But looks can sometimes be deceiving – at least in this case. I probably walked away with more foundational staples than I have from any event in a while. Foundational staples meaning items I will use over and over (and I really will…I mean,… Read more →
Spring Eyelet
I love a little eyelet detail in a spring dress. This delicate spring eyelet dress is from AMITOMO and is a bit shorter than I would normally choose but lovely anyway. And perfect for late May. Let’s call it a Springlet Dress! No reason to be so verbose today so please enjoy the newness from Belleza, Truth, Empire (beautiful wrapped… Read more →
Nantucket Reds
I am just back from a long week of travel and am about to get on the road once again – but this time, to Nantucket and just for an overnight. On a beautiful spring day I have my Nantucket Reds on IRL but I didn’t have quite the right color in SL. So, I put on the closest I… Read more →
fiore’s First Bento Release
I am literally leaving to jump on a plane but before I go, I wanted to post the new Alura bento mesh head release from fiore. This is fiore’s first bento head and it’s currently discounted for a short time so a good idea to grab her if you like her. I like Alura, even though there is some way… Read more →
Out from under
This may be the easiest styling I’ve ever done. This hot bodysuit is by Fashionably Dead @Collabor88. Very simple, very classic, and great for layering. But not today. Today the bodysuit comes out from under all the things I usually cover them up with. In other news, I am pretty thrilled with so many great hairs out and about. Like… Read more →
Palatable Florals
I’m not a big pattern or florals person. I would pick a solid over a pattern 6 out of 7 days of the week. But I love this floral print dress from Valentina E. For me, this is an example of palatable florals. It’s also one of my absolute favorite silhouettes, form fitting and feminine. It’s a quick break in… Read more →
