Starry Eyed

I am still wearing my Bella skin from Belleza. It’s actually exceedingly rare for me to wear the same skin – and almost unheard of for me to blog the same skin – for 2 days consecutively. That’s how much I love it. I am also wearing gorgeous new winter makeups from Izzie’s. They come for both Catwa and LeLutka… Read more →

standout separates

Standout Separates

I put together a casual winter look made up of some simple, but standout separates. We had our first snow in Boston this weekend, so it seemed apropos to dress with that in mind. Incidentally, the very first snow I saw this season was in Austin last week. Yes, Texas y’all. It never snows there! WTF? I actually got stuck… Read more →

if you only buy one thing this week

If you only buy one thing this week…

These booties are my plus one for the week. I happen to be leaving for a business trip to Texas and I can only take one pair of party pumps. I’ll take these – IRL too, please. I am pretty sure they are at the very least inspired by RL tied booties, like the ones I just got from Chloe… Read more →

vista bento head Lia

Vista Bento Head Lia

This is Vista Animations Bento head, Lia. Recently released, it was priced at a discount over the long holiday weekend. The price may have gone up by now but either way, I’d encourage you to have a look. Let me tell you about the things I really like: It has one main HUD that governs most of the head’s main… Read more →

Delicious

I know I said I had all this haul from “Black Friday” sales in Second Life, but first, this delicious little ensemble courtesy of some new releases from over the long weekend. Apropos for such a delightful little “winter ice cream” accessory that I couldn’t resist at Uber. Probably because I am still reeling from all the Thanksgiving indulgence. We… Read more →

different kind of date night

A different kind of date night

I wanted to post this BEFORE Saturday night but unfortunately WordPress 4.9 broke everything on my blog. so <3 Adrian <3 had to fix it. Anyway, I took my niece to The Nutcracker in Boston last night, which is how we kick off every holiday season. So it was a different kind of date night. The family, holiday kind. Maybe… Read more →

Editorial: Real Talk about Mesh Heads

I feel a bit like someone who was just let in on a joke that the whole grid already knew. No, really. This is how it feels when you find out that most everyoneeeeeeeeeeeeee (a scientific unit of measure) prefers mesh heads from Catwa, and therefore creators mostly put out skin appliers for Catwa heads, as opposed to my (obvious)… Read more →

fuzzy feeling

That Fuzzy Feeling

This coat gives me a decidedly fuzzy feeling for the cold days ahead. It’s from fame femme, as is the dress and scarf. All will be available later today @Shiny Shabby (FYI: I greatly miss the old, village build but the sim is apparently being remodeled). I pulled in a few shots of red to set off my normal neutrals,… Read more →

color crush

Color Crush

For this shopping Saturday, I am focused on my color crush once again. Second only to navy blue, dusty rose is a staple for me – and truly forms a large swath of my wardrobe IRL (and as you know, in SL too). I love that you can style it like any neutral so I went with some rich browns,… Read more →

pre-winter whites

Pre-winter Whites

Is it too early for a fresh winter whites look? OK, let’s call it Pre-winter then? Call it anything – I am so smitten. And you know, I am not a gowny girl. But I am a hopeless romantic and this just does the trick. I used the word “smitten” intentionally. If you’re a regular reader, then you know that’s… Read more →

It’s about that time, isn’t it?

It’s about that time, isn’t it? You know, the time when we start to think about party dresses for the holidays. How did that happen? Wasn’t it just summer? 😮 But yes, as soon as I saw this stunner from Pixicat, I knew I had to clear the way for some party dress inventory – and maybe, just maybe, even… Read more →

Modern Knit

I’m behind – OK, way behind – in planned blogging this week and don’t expect to free up much before next weekend. In the meantime, a quick one with an example of a “Modern Knit” that I really like. True, the high turtleneck can be a little awkward in certain poses but it’s so similar to something I wore and… Read more →

candy coated

Candy Coated

With Halloween right around the corner, I must have been thinking about all those sweets because I’m completely candy coated for today. Not the creepy Halloween kind though, more like Easter. Oops. This is another tone of the same ItGirls skin I was wearing here. It’s my new favorite for LeLutka and you can expect to see almost all the… Read more →

You Do You

I am going to start and end today’s entry with just a very few words: You do you. Don’t ever compromise your core to please anyone else. I was inspired so much by everything that I am wearing. I hadn’t even planned to blog again before the weekend. But for once, I am going to let the items and simple… Read more →
