If your hair is done properly and you have on good shoes, you can get away with anything. Lelutka released new hairs and they are versatile, beautiful and realistic. This one is Aaliyah, one of numerous new color offerings and packagings that include both roots and fades, as well as the base color (finally a pack you don’t have to… Read more →
I happen to love the name Alice. It is my Grandmother’s name and I love and miss her every day. She was incredibly beautiful and stylish, with shoes and a bag for literally every occasion. Until her dying day, she was style personified. She very much believed her presentation said much about who she was as a woman. Read more →
If you spend time really looking at what you’re wearing in SL, it’s remarkable the level of detail and realism you can find. I spent some time doing that with this dress from Lumiere, which at first blush is a pretty, delicate lace fitted dress. But there’s a lot more to it when you dig in. Read more →
IRL we all want to stay young looking, right? I know I obsess about this and buy all sorts of skin care and see all kinds of specialists that will aid in fighting off age when it comes. But in Second Life, I feel strange looking too young if that makes sense at all. I love trying all kinds of… Read more →
This outfit is slightly Oliver Twist inspired, but with a twist of red you could say. I loved the newsboy pants from Fashionably Dead and wanted to include something a little more unexpected. I dug around in my “new but not used” inventory and found this great hair from Olive, that I believe was a FLF offering around Christmas. Read more →
You know the rest of the song! I don’t photoshop my snapshots from SL. I am not really artistic in ways outside of personal aesthetics and putting things together, whether decorating in my RL home or decorating myself 😉 In SL, I have always just shown the things I wear as I see them in the world. That said, I… Read more →
When I put an outfit together – in RL or in SL – I am always drawn to clothes that I can feel feminine and still comfortable in. There are outfits I post here that I wear (or would wear) in my real life (although right now in Boston there is literally 6 feet of snow on the ground), even… Read more →
I love them. And when I love something, I buy them in too many colors. You can never have too many of your favorites, in my opinion. These are by Just Design, available at Fameshed. Read more →
One of the ways I express my style offline is to include small pops of my favorite colors into my daily wear, most often through accessories, so as not to overwhelm with one color. The pop I’ve included here is Rowne’s Vittoria Leather Tote in powder (Feb Collabor88) in an otherwise muted outfit. The bag is similar to the one… Read more →
Things have changed in SL in every way since I left and returned. But one way that literally has me wondering when it changed is the event-based shopping experience. When I was an active blogger there were very few events that we all wanted to be at. Hair Fair and Shoe Fair were the big ones, I think. It could… Read more →
Unless they can be worn with my Maitreya Lara body, I am less likely to wear them these days. That doesn’t mean I don’t love the look of them! It just means that I have settled on Maitreya Lara as my primary mesh body of choice. For several reasons, most notably: Read more →
Hi, I’m Gillian (IRL too) and way back when, I was a SL fashion blogger at this same address, although that content has long been swallowed up now. No one other than real oldbies will remember me but I was fortunate to have had a wonderful community to share with and learn from, and a host of talented creators to… Read more →
