this is the end

This is the end of summer but the beginning of much better fashion (hopefully). I was inspired by today’s literally glorious weather IRL that then led to a style mashup in SL.

Oh and in case you were wondering, no, I didn’t suddenly get good at editing and condensing screenshots. I asked Richard, my AI assistant, to show me what a collage of the ~12 different – but related – styles I snapped might look like if I were actually good at PS Elements.

Robots really are taking over, aren’t they?

Ahh well. It may be the end of summer, but who doesn’t love early fall fashion best?

dreamy

By my unscientific calculations, I first fell in love with this dreamy dress in 2015. Have I really been “back” to blogging in Second Life for 11+ years? Holy hell. But look, Pixicat has updated and re-released this beautiful dress – one that I was pained to delete when I stopped wearing Maitreya years ago – to include fits for other bodies including mine, Legacy Perky!

AND, it’s available with the FULL HUD for today’s FLF. Come on. What a dream!

For me, I immediately chose the “cloud” texture – a true fairytale option. I am so glad it’s back – and with a Perky fit!

more is more

This style started innocently enough with a larger than life hair – so well done from Truth (really wish we had more Truth-only releases like this) – and devolved (or evolved) into full 80s Whitesnake from there. Hopefully you get the reference. More is more when it comes to the big 80s.

And though my avatar rarely has occasion to wear a gown of any kind, I couldn’t resist this body conscience beauty from Pixicat, released earlier this month at Collabor88. I love the juxtaposition of structured boning coupled with antique lace and pearls to finish it off. My avatar could have walked off the set of a hair band music video back when MTV played actual music. Love it.

Sadly, my vacation week is coming to a close. I suspect a much quieter DeuxLooks for a while – that is unless someone releases something extra special, in which case, I’ll be back asap.

all good things…

…must come to an end. August is flying by. I’m at the beach with my sister – like we’re kids again. Been sleeping late and napping frequently. Heaven. Maybe I love August so much because it’s especially precious and fleeting. Sadly, all good things must come to an end.

I feel like this style really reflects August for me. Relaxed, slightly rumpled from a suitcase and salt air, obviously well-worn. Only my hair, bow headband (!!!ily), and skin are super new. I’m hopeful I will find more that I gravitate to in the SL clothing department soon – it’s been an absolute drought for me for what feels like months. If not, all the good things in my inventory will in fact be worn over and over again 🙂

So I guess not all good things must come to an end, after all.
