I don’t hate Valentines Day

I don’t hate Valentine’s Day. It’s a great day to love yourself and feel beautiful, regardless of relationship status. Wear pink or red, or don’t. Better yet, do whatever makes you happy on whatever day you want! Enjoy your Valentine’s but more importantly, enjoy your day! xoxo Read more →

Genesis Lab: Melissa mesh head

Work, sashay, shante. ‘Cause everything looks good on you, supermodel. I feel like I am singing that old RuPaul song when I wear the new Melissa mesh head from Genesis Lab. Supermodel-ish amirite? New from Genesis Lab and available at Collabor88, where thanks to the event’s great prices, you can pick her up for less than $800L. Well worth it!… Read more →

The Glamorous

I was inspired by the “Fanny” hair from Tableau Vivant to go a bit glamorous. Though this first hair is a few releases ago, much of what you’ll find at this month’s Collabor88 and the most recent Uber is also quite glamorous. I especially love Tableau Vivant’s blonde tones. I am wearing a bunch of my older favorites including my… Read more →

Perfect Pairings

I haven’t blogged all week but that doesn’t mean I haven’t been out and about 😉 I just really wasn’t as inspired as I need to be to put things together that I have been acquiring. Until today that is. From sales and events, to items I just love from my inventory – some perfect pairings for your weekend enjoyment.… Read more →

I Make Exceptions

I make exceptions when it comes to some shorter dresses, even when I prefer longer hems. The new Breezy dress from paper.arrow @ Uber is one of those. I love the light, flowey look of the fabric and of course, I favor blush and neutral colors much of the time. This would be one of my all time faves if… Read more →

Inspired

These new hairs from around the grid inspired my styles today. From tailored and casual to slightly ethereal, I just let my hairs dictate the fashion. I was particularly excited that Entwined is back at Shiny Shabby. One of my most recommended hair creators, and I *always* notice when one of those takes a break. Now, I am only missing… Read more →

More Please

Luscious brows and eye makeups from Glam Affair’s new Kat applier (for LeLutka heads) available at Shiny Shabby. I have two things to say, More Please. Maybe I am just paying more attention but I feel like eyebrows are finally making a comeback in Second Life, long after RL went back to them 🙂 I am also loving the opalescent… Read more →

Jing from Fiore

I recently raved about the new mesh heads and appliers from Fiore, released at the end of the year. To my delight, the brand released another, completely different applier, Jing, available in 3 tones to work with all five Fiore head shapes. It’s no secret I love Asian skins, mesh heads, and now, appliers. It’s remarkable to me how different… Read more →

Esther

I love big, bold brows. I even added that request to my short wish list. Thank you, Deetalez, for indulging me. These days, pretty much the only thing that can get me to try a new system skin or applier from a creator I don’t already wear regularly, is a really good set of brows. Enter Esther, a new system… Read more →

Strike My Fancy

Quick on the heels of my very short 2016 wish list, I have been sniffing around the events in the new year, looking for items that really strike my fancy. Oddly enough, only a few things have grabbed me. Some great hairs, select appliers, and accessories here and there. Have the winter doldrums stolen my zest for shopping? No, I… Read more →

A Short Second Life Wish List for 2016

It’s been a year since I started blogging again and in that time, I have mentioned numerous items on my Second Life fashion and beauty wish list. For 2016, I decided to revisit and shorten my list now that I am a year older and wiser? I wish… …every hair creator would include an ad in each pack. That way,… Read more →

Girlie & Glam

I am kicking off the New Year with a post that embodies two of my favorite stylings, Girlie & Glam. Thankfully the creators of Second Life offer plentiful inventory for both categories. Today also kicks off my HUGE inventory purge. I have a number in mind I want to get it down to, so I will be ruthless. I actually… Read more →

Fiore Mesh Heads

I had been looking forward to the new/updated mesh head and applier releases from fiore for weeks now. When they arrived, I wasn’t disappointed. There are five different base heads available, and two new appliers (only for these heads, mind) in a wide range of tones. For the purposes of this review, I am showing the soft head with the… Read more →

United Colors

If anyone else remembers Benetton, then you might remember the United Colors campaigns that were so ahead of their time. Today it’s normal to see diversity celebrated in major media, but back in the 80s and 90s, not so much. But Benetton embraced the beautiful differences in women of every size and shape, color and ethnicity. These ads made a… Read more →

Mesh Head Heaven

One of the things I have most enjoyed over the last year of my return to Second Life and blogging has been embracing a large variety of mesh heads. First I was skeptical, even resistant. Now, it’s one of the most fun parts of styling for me. I am still attached to my own headshape, of course, but it’s been… Read more →
