These brows. Just stop it, ok? They’re so amazing. I recently had my own RL brows microbladed. So worth it! By the way, if you like the bold brows look in SL, then be sure to also play around with the eyebrows included with your LeLutka bento head, because they are completely wild and awesome too. These brows can be… Read more →
Lace: so sexy, decadent, and seductive. I cannot believe I used to hate this fabric IRL. It’s true. It used to make me itch – but I didn’t know that was only because it was cheap and I was 16. Times have changed. In my opinion, no other fabric understands women’s bodies like lace. Also, it doesn’t have to be… Read more →
“I like to be perfect but I don’t like perfection.” – Alber Elbaz How true, Mr. Elbaz (one of my most favorite designers and fashion personalities – famous for hating to be seen as a “personality” and hating to have his photo taken). What does this have to do with what I am wearing? Well, I guess I find “perfection”… Read more →
This week I got a note from someone that said, “I miss when you looked more original. Currently you just look like another LeLutka bot.” I can assure you, I am not a bot. But if I were, I wouldn’t mind looking like this? Still uniquely my own I have talked about the reasons I am trending more towards wearing… Read more →
This is Ella, a very beautiful skin for LeLutka mesh heads by Adam n Eve’s sachi Vixen. I can remember blogging sachi’s creations wayyyyyyyy back when. It’s great to see her still so active and successful in Second Life. I am showing the skin in “EB” tone, and with LeLutka Simone’s eyebrows, rather than the provided eyebrow textures. I love… Read more →
Now that Skin Fair is in full swing, I’m really checking out the wear-ability of all my new skins and one new head. Cate. From LeLutka, of course. I am also wearing a skin from Candy Doll that I didn’t expect to like, but I do! I originally waited to wear Cate after getting what I can only describe as… Read more →
This is Samaira. She is the only skin I am previewing from Skin Fair that isn’t for LeLutka but for Fiore. Samaira is one of three new skin appliers for Fiore from one of my favorite skin artists, Milan. IMO, Milan makes the most beautiful dark skins in Second Life and I would loveeeee if she would work on the… Read more →
This is Kirsten from YSYS, another new skin applier for LeLutka at Skin Fair 2017. One of the best things about Skin Fair for me is really expanding my skin portfolio but also, starting fresh. What??? You mean, you actually delete older skins/appliers and start over? Yes, yes I do. Don’t twitch when I tell you… I don’t even box… Read more →
Wow, what a difference a year makes. Skin Fair 2017 (beautifully done by Esode and Pale Girl Productions) has nearly arrived and unlike what I claimed last year, appliers are basically all you will find. If you’re still wearing system skins, well…I suspect most people who read beauty blogs have long been on the mesh head train anyway 😉 What… Read more →
Full Harajuku style isn’t something I play with often, but I do love to “Gillianize” trends to make them suit me personally. Have you seen Baiastice’s new Tattoo dress? It has koi on it. I love it, and especially the bright, urban colors and sheer arms and bodice. OK I “Gillianized” the look a bit – a lot, as I… Read more →
I’m making a case for champagne with this dress from Azul. I have never worn inventory from this creator before, and the Zaria dress is unique, with bell sleeves and a satin overlay bodice. Very, very pretty and so fun to style. It also comes with flexi parts (not shown). I remember when flexi came to the grid (yes, my… Read more →
I was messing around with shapes as I tried on the new mesh head from LeLutka this weekend. It got me thinking about my shape and how it has changed – or hasn’t changed, as it were. At the end of the day, however I present my avatar in Second Life, it is version of me that I choose to… Read more →
I’m don’t know what the weather is like by you, but here in Boston, we have had an early Spring in February! Yesterday was 68F 😮 Today will be much the same. To celebrate, here’s a casual look to love. One part bohemian, one part glam. Mixing one part boho; one part glam I wasn’t sure what I was going… Read more →
I am hitting the refresh button today. Taking a fresh look at what’s in my inventory and where the holes are. In particular, I am looking at ever-popular Second Life subscription “boxes” like Luxe Box (FD: the only one I participate in) and others. Is Second Life moving farther and farther away from a la carte to mostly event/themed/packaged shopping?… Read more →
I have so much in my inventory I am keen to blog at some point, but today, I am crushing on some blues. Subtle blue accents that stand out against a very pale outfit. I admit that I am having trouble switching out of my LeLutka Simone head. This time, I am experimenting with the beautiful bushy eyebrows from the… Read more →
