Revisiting some favorites

Despite more event openings, I really began this look with revisiting some of my favorites, both in my inventory and by visiting the main stores of several designers. Novel, I know! After I came back to SL last winter, “Blair” (The Skinnery) was the first skin I fell in love with after Glam Affair. I can’t get enough of the… Read more →

Almost too sweet: Dresses that don’t bore me

I knew I would eventually end up doing this post. Despite my boredom around some shorter, “girly” dresses in Second Life, these dresses are all exceptions for me. Why? Extraordinary construction and/or textures you can almost feel. The top of the Dreamy Dress from Pixicat at Collabor88 is textured in a way that I can almost feel the fabric if… Read more →

Almost Imperceptible

Where I live, once the calendar hit about August 6, an almost imperceptible change happened. Lights in my house are now being flipped on around 7:00 rather than 8:00. The air conditioning isn’t running much and the evening air has the slightest hint of a chill. The seasons are signaling a change. It’s my favorite time of year, but so… Read more →

Collabor88 is dreamy…really dreamy

There are very few Second Life events where I will be so effusive about the content or the experience that I get all hyperbolic. This round – the Daydream birthday round – of Collabor88  is literally the most dreamy of them all. If you’re a fan of the soft and feminine, this is your round too. I would just like to… Read more →

Can you guess the mesh head?

I am wearing the new skin appliers from Genesis Lab called “Anastasia.” They’re available in the full range of tones and work in different ways with each head I have from Genesis. I am showing Sunny, Julia, Maya, and Chloe mesh heads here. But do you know which is which? 🙂 So the appliers work best on heads with tattoo layers.… Read more →

Inspired by…

Today I was inspired by the new Lalora hair from Elikatira available at We <3 RP. I’m wearing a lot of grey and white hairstyles lately, and I love them against a tanned skin, which was a FLF skin from Glam Affair called Artemis. *I really* love this skin and it’s the first time I have seen it. I normally… Read more →

Rowne: Dani Meijer Mesh Head

I was on the fence about this new head from Rowne. “Dani Meijer” is available in darker tones, and while they are beautiful, I wasn’t sure how often I would wear her. However I have said that before and been very wrong, so … I am enjoying trying her out. I have been a big fan of Rowne since I… Read more →

On a Sunday

On a Sunday in the summer I usually do one of two things, housework and shopping for the coming week – or absolutely nothing. I haven’t decided what today will be yet. So I’m kicking it off in Second Life. Fameshed opened up and it seems my brief moratorium of event shopping is over. There is some great inventory, of… Read more →

Variety is my spice of SLife

For me, experimenting with fashion and beauty in SL is very exciting. It allows me to really stretch and create a variety of styles that I find inspiring and beautiful. Adrian says, “well it looks good but it’s not you.” But you see, it is me. Ultimately every style on my blog is “me” in the realest sense in fact.… Read more →

Some Stuff I Love

I feel like I am having to do this a lot – where there’s so much out there that I am loving, I need to do small compilations of things I am enjoying. Honestly though, it’s nice there’s a lull in events right now; it let’s me catch up and enjoy!  In fact, I don’t need or plan to buy… Read more →

Hair Fair’s Last Licks

I believe today is the last day for Hair Fair 2015. I still have about 20 hairs in my inventory to wear O.o, and I will get there – but it clearly won’t be in time for the Fair to still be open. I am quite sure most people have been and shopped exhaustively, but just in case you missed… Read more →

Chignons and Updos

One of the favorite ways to wear my hair is up or back, casually in a chignon or more formally in an updo on special occasions. I put together a small compilation featuring some of my favorite new “ups” available at Hair Fair and elsewhere. I’m also wearing three different mesh heads, and had so much fun playing around with… Read more →

Genesis Labs: Jiang Mesh Head

This is going to be rather long so feel free to skip to the end for my TLDR summary. I am going to start with the things I like about Jiang, available now from Genesis Labs at Shiny Shabby. Firstly, she’s beautifully interesting to me. I knew as soon as I saw the previews that I would like her. She’s… Read more →

Shiny Shabby: Worth it!

Shiny Shabby opened to much fanfare once again. For me, this event is usually worth it in every way. It’s so well done, I could wander the streets for much longer than my shopping requires. I have so much to blog from the event, but I’m not one to blog everything at once, so above, I am actually only wearing… Read more →

Tresses

I adore long hair. In the last year I had my stylist cut my hair into a medium bob and I cried for days. #firstworldproblems. It took me a year to grow it out and today it’s finally the perfect length for me. I am kinda obsessed with it actually. In SL of course, perfect hair for the day is… Read more →
