~90 days and 60+ posts after I returned to blogging after many years away, I am on the verge of doing the first quarter purge of my inventory. I want to keep it at 20k or less. This is a spectacular goal considering I used to hover around 100k when I was blogging before. The only things in my inventory… Read more →
Yesterday was intimate, today is intricate. I feel like because designs in SL often have to be exaggerated to be “seen,” sometimes the subtleties of a piece of jewelry or belt, for example, are overlooked. So this is all about those details that make whatever we’re wearing special. Very. Even if you’re the only person who notices because everyone else… Read more →
I don’t wear a lot of intimates in SL other than foundation garments, but I really should. How cute are these? I happen to love the retro stylings from Lacuna and Atomic in these bra and panty sets. You don’t need to show a lot of skin to be sexy (but you do probably need a fuller shape than mine… Read more →
More from Shiny Shabby, the perfect retro, bohemian, vintage collection of treasures. It is so up my fashion alley. I won’t ever tire of it. There is a very special necklace there that I am not showing yet because I need something worthy of it, but I cannot wait to style it! I would not be surprised if practically every… Read more →
A Friday afternoon and I happen to be home, poised to visit Shiny Shabby once again. And fancy that, it’s just as good as last month’s. I also exerted a bit more self control this round….well sort of. There were no major skin releases, so that helped. Starting with a few of my favorites is the farmhouse type dress by… Read more →
As I prepare space in my inventory for Shiny Shabby (yay!!!!)…I take a hard look at what I haven’t worn and consider why…why do things get stuck in my inventory? #1 – Where would I wear it? I love the look of whatever it is but for whatever reason, it won’t be seen beyond my attic skybox. It’s SL so… Read more →
I loved this round of Kawaii Project, but it’s true that I don’t really do kawaii really well >.< Still, I absolutely LOVE these shoes by Kata0nik. They are just tiny bits of perfection. With my pixie hair from Moon, I feel a bit like a pretty little imp. Is that a thing? Another item from Kawaii Project, this sweet… Read more →
There are skins I wear regularly that are so distinct, no one would ever wonder what I am wearing. Glam Affair is one. Belleza is another. Both these brands do impeccable work when it comes to creating varied and distinct skin lines, so expertly crafted it’s no wonder they are some of the grid’s most popular faces. But within each… Read more →
Rose from Mudskin, one of the prettiest new skins for me at Skin Fair. There are 7 makeups (from memory) available per tone; this is #1 in the Sunny tone. The skin comes with many different mole and cleavage tattoos, 2 versions of the skin (one lightly freckled, as above) and 10 different eyebrow versions, plus a no brow version.… Read more →
This is Roberta from Swallow, another new skin from Skin Fair. First let me say that I am wearing freckles that do not come with this skin. You can see a clean shot of Roberta at the end of this post. I added them for the simple reason that this skin does not come with any tattoo options. It comes… Read more →
This is Aeryn, new from PXL at Skin Fair. Way back when, I used to wear and blog PXL from time-to-time so it’s great to see Hart still creating. Aeryn comes in 4 separate makeups in your chosen tone with several options for freckles, moles, eyebrows and also included, SweetLips applier for your tone in the pack. I have not… Read more →
Or so they say… I have to say I don’t feel like “me” here. But that’s OK. I’m stretching a bit; trying new things. In this case, the new “thing” is Egozy’s Hyolee in the pale tone (that isn’t very pale). Exotic, sultry and quite lovely. I didn’t look at many ads for Skin Affair in advance so I was… Read more →
This is AtiK “Doria,” new at Skin Fair. First time wearer and I think her face is very sweet. She only came with 2 versions, one with cleavage and one without. It also came with appliers for Slink hands and feet but there are no Maitreya Lara appliers available that I could see at the event or the main store.… Read more →
So I am still working through all the skins from Skin Fair. I have been introduced to some great new to me brands and had good fun trying different looks. One thing that keeps coming up though, is tones. I wear mostly light to very light tones. I found a major issue with many of the skins that I otherwise… Read more →
And now for something completely different… There’s a western inspired collection out at Overhigh made up of everything from hats to skirts to ponchos and cloaks. The whole collection is quite good and I’m showing a few pieces here. This skirt type was really popular last fall when both Burberry showed a line of Prorsum ponchos on all the celebrities. It’s… Read more →
