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 →

Party Dresses and Bows

I do love party dresses in both lives, and these are two of the best new ones in my inventory. I also LOVE bows. Elika of Elikatira knows this and it has not faded as I have matured in any way. If you want me to buy or wear something, just add a bow 🙂 And no, I do not… Read more →

The Scramble

I don’t know about anyone else but at the moment I am truly on the scramble to start (!!!111) holiday shopping. Once I go on official holiday next Thursday for the rest of the year, I expect to be living on the streets trying to scramble to get everything I need for Christmas. As the youngest child of a mixed… Read more →

Lip Potions

The new series of Lip Potions from The Skinnery are right up my beauty alley. Firstly, I love the word “potion.” Secondly, the rich colors are just gorgeous. Who doesn’t love a matte lip in fall or winter? Yum. The newest version of Lip Potions are exclusively for Catwa mesh heads, available at The Chapter Four. I was so inspired… Read more →

Lara Hurley Skins

I am showing two new system skins from Lara Hurley, Dani and Rie. I still get really excited when a skinner I love puts out new system skins. Until we can all have custom mesh heads or there are more ways to customize the mass market options, there’s still the potential “I look like everyone else” factor. I believe that… Read more →

Playing Catch Up

I am just back from almost two weeks away and am playing a serious game of Catch Up! I don’t know if/when I will get through everything I intended to blog but I will certainly try. I have missed sooooooo much and my IMs were capped on the first day so if you tried to contact me, please send a… Read more →

A Little Dab’ll Do Ya

I am one of those freaks of nature who don’t really like red. It’s a color I almost never wear – in either life. The only time of year I will even consider it is around the holidays. And even then, usually only on my nails or a scarf or clutch. I don’t even like red roses 😮 But, I… Read more →
