Quickie: Veechi Shadows

I have been working on a bunch of longer posts this week but time got away from me and I haven’t had a moment to finish them. So today, here’s quite literally just a quickie. But a goodie. A quickie goodie? If you do nothing else today in Second Life from a shopping perspective, do yourself a favor and pick… Read more →

Summer Fashion: Going Long

I know, summer is supposed to be about short sundresses and skimpy skirts, amirite? Nothing against those, but for me, often predictable and sometimes uninspired. In this post, I’m going long for the summer and enjoying every moment of it. I am addicted to the colors of the long, gorgeous dresses from Tetra. Like delicious sorbets! When you want to… Read more →

Elaborate Embellishments: A Bag Worth Buying

I can remember a time when I didn’t put a lot of thought into using bags for my blogs in Second Life. This was back in the days long before mesh, hell, before anything other than carrying what were essentially shoe boxes on your arm. No really. It’s so nice to be able to not just blog, but regularly actually… Read more →

Joyful Bursts of Color

Today felt like a better day to showcase the joyful bursts of color I mentioned earlier this week. I am definitely feeling more hopeful this beautiful morning, so for all my lovers of color, this one is for you. I am wearing the fresh new mesh head from Catwa, and beautiful tangerine dress from Lowen, at Kustom9. My gorgeous clutch… Read more →

Love is Love is Love is Love

I am going to keep this very short because I feel like fewer words better represents my headspace right now. There’s a lot going on in our world, and I find myself introspective, worried, and somewhat emotional in the wake of so much sadness. But fashion is very therapeutic for me and love is love is love! Anywayyyyyy, I have… Read more →

Dress up!

Thank you to Stories & Co. for putting out a perfect Spring dress at Collabor88. The simple Chloe dress is – IMO – the ideal length for this time of year. I mean, it’s not lost on me that we’re in a virtual world and all, but um, not every woman wants to wear everything in ultrateenymini sizing…I’m just sayin’.… Read more →

While I wait for Windows 10 to download…

As I wait for Windows 10 to finish its massive, gargantuan download, I bring you some items that make me happy in Second Life. First, I’ll mention that ELIKA is back \o/ and she is releasing new hair later today at Fameshed. Felicity (does anyone remember this show? I was addicted to it) is – of course – soooo pretty… Read more →

This is my jam

As uninspired as I have been, I was just as quickly sparked back to life by recent releases! It’s so funny how one seemingly small piece can inspire a whole host of looks. In this case, I’m giving credit to fri.day and the Harper Clogs (24×7 pack, of course) available at Shiny Shabby. They’re not so much clog-ish (a good… Read more →

Stuck in a rut

I have been scarce on my blog because I am stuck in a bit of a rut. A fashion rut. It’s interesting because IRL, the very opposite is true and I quite happily have been shopping and styling my socks off. It’s been a beautiful, if a little chilly, Spring in Boston. In SL, I have dozens of things that… Read more →

Fashion and Beauty Round-up

I have been away for the last week+ and am in serious need of some SL catch up time. However I don’t see it happening today as life is kinda crazy, so here’s a fashion and beauty round-up of some of the the items I think are really worth picking up. Like, really. Beauty First up, I have been on… Read more →

Like I said…

I say this a lot – like over and over – but to me, “beauty” is when things are imperfect. Give me wild, real brows and freckles or beauty marks all day er’day. Give me bright, real faces and less airbrushing. So Like I said… The truth is, perfection is boring ^^. In a world where we can literally be… Read more →

Profiles

Do our avatars have their “good sides” like their RL typists? Does one profile dominate the other? I honestly feel like my avatar has a good profile and a weaker one. Oddly it’s the same side as my RL one. I wonder if that means – like so many things – that it’s all in my mind 😮 This is… Read more →

SquadGoals

#SquadGoals Soooo many new appliers are out this week from Glam Affair. I am going to be a little hyperbolic and say that they are my favorite makeups from Aida for months and months. I was inspired to form a little Girl Squad a la Taylor Swift. Normally I do a lot more chattering, but I think I will just… Read more →

Bold & Beauty “Sarah”

I feel like Bold & Beauty only recently entered the mesh head applier market? Maybe this isn’t accurate, but this is my perception. I went all kinds of hyperbolic at Skin Fair with their Lien applier for Catwa and I wear it all the time. I was definitely hoping for a Fiore offering, and it arrived at The Seasons Story… Read more →

Crisp, Clean, Minimal

It’s one of those days where less is more. Where crisp whites, bright pops of color, and clean, minimal styles win me over. Also winning me over is the new applier from Glam Affair at Collabor88. I like it on my Gwen head best. Tangerine isn’t a terribly popular color in SL I don’t think. I happen to love it,… Read more →
