line dancing

Remember how I mentioned I was afk visiting my niece at college in Florida? Well, she took me I forced her to take me line dancing. It’s honestly something I have always wanted to do, so I figured, “why not add the benefit of potentially embarrassing my niece?” to the list of “must-dos.” It was so. much. fun.

Therefore, this somewhat out of character outfit is an homage to the sport of dancing in a line with other drunk people. I highly recommend you try it IRL and report back. AND, I loved wearing my cowboy boots again! Which reminds me, the HUD on these SL boots seems borked as it doesn’t allow me to switch crystals/metals, even though it says I can. I noticed this with the demo version too, but of course, went ahead and bought them thinking the full edition would be fine. No such luck.

the right match to my mix

new earrings by (Luc) – Lucas Lameth @Anthem

It occurred to me – as I put this look together from a bunch of random folders in my inventory and a couple of new items – that this was the first time in a long time that I actually enjoyed the hunt for the right match for my mix. I was actually delighted that things came together as they did, in the time they did.

Less “outfit” than serendipitous accident, it started with these trousers that I had no memory of purchasing. I often find items by Baiastice harder to fit to my petite avatar – but these dressier cargos are a unique shape in SL and especially beautiful in deep navy. The tank is from a random cardigan twinset that’s been gathering digital dust and the Chanel-ish jacket was a perfect fit out of nowhere. None of these items are supposed to go together, but they do – and perfectly.

Just the right match to my mix.

florida

I am leaving for a long weekend trip to Florida to visit my niece at college. It took me 45 minutes to log into my blog to even post this…so I’m basically out of time now.

Yes, still wrestling with some sort of conflict between my site and the hosting service. I am completely activated this has gone on so long.

Sighs. I’ll hope for a solution by the time I get back. I don’t even like Florida!!!!

it’s a start

I’m not sure I fully agree with the bag that it’s all you need – but it’s a damn good place to start. Shame I can never eat just one doughnut…

I picked up much of what I’m wearing at this month’s Kustom9. Most notably, my head and held accessories are all new from LaGyo – appropriately named, “Gillian.” Thank you for making a set so perfect for my avatar and her RL typist. PS, I also love sheet cake <3

Also new are my recreated for SL Miu Miu ballet flats (which I own IRL in white patent leather). I had to grab the fatpack because the colors and sock options were too good not to. Incidentally, these look better on digital Gillian than her RL counterpart. The new dress is annoyingly not available in my preferred Legacy Perky size – but then again, I guess with this shape, it doesn’t really matter. I love the easter egg like colors available in the hud. I probably have 6 or 7 of practically the same dress from this creator. No one can stop me.

And with that, I am off. Hopefully the sun comes out after a couple days of rain.
