Don’t miss items just because they hide out at smaller, lesser-covered events. Don’t miss in-store releases either while I am at it. In this case, don’t miss this pretty updo from Exile. It’s exclusive to The Trunk Show and it’s gorgeous. Who else is loving that Exile is including bases feathered right into the hairs? Natural and perfect <3 OK,… Read more →

A matter of taste
Oh hey, it’s my favorite dusty rose color again. No, I don’t get tired of it. Like, ever. But the truth is, I am not actually completely aware I am repeating my favorite colors over and over and over. It’s a matter of taste, I guess. I’m blogging more of my haul from Uber and a new to me event,… Read more →
2017 Year in Review
2017 was a great year for SL fashion and beauty IMO. I looked back on some of my most favorite looks, reviews and editorials, and despite loving styles like this, this, this, this, this and especially this, I have decided to only look forward. So instead, here are some things I am looking forward to in 2018: What’s to come… Read more →

Can you feel that?
Can you feel that first hint of autumn when it creeps into the evening or overnight? I can. Even in July. This morning IRL I started mentally shopping for transition styles, which of course led me to doing the same in SL. This is where I ended up on this cool and fall-like day in Boston: a nod to fall… Read more →
Charming
Is it any surprise I found this bow charming? Is it a surprise I find any bow charming? I am nothing if not predictable some days xD Spring has burst onto the scene in Boston where I live and yesterday was close to 90 degrees! WTF? So, I am extending my spring-like fashion streak in kind with a casual look… Read more →
My own harajuku style
Full Harajuku style isn’t something I play with often, but I do love to “Gillianize” trends to make them suit me personally. Have you seen Baiastice’s new Tattoo dress? It has koi on it. I love it, and especially the bright, urban colors and sheer arms and bodice. OK I “Gillianized” the look a bit – a lot, as I… Read more →
Preppy, Classic
I love this classic preppy duffle coat from Sleepy Eddy. It’s probably the best coat I have seen in SL…ever, actually. The details are impeccable. Two years later and this hair from Chemistry is still one of my oft worn. I added some bangs from Truth to change it up slightly, but it’s just a classic bun that also has… Read more →
A Standout Coat
Are you a military style coat lover? Or is a traditional, cashmere walker your top pick? Would you go modern with a puffer and faux fur? Or stay classic with smooth leather? I love coats and this season there are so many standout options to covet. In Second Life, I am waiting for someone amazing to make the flare sleeved… Read more →
Early Autumn
A scarf in early autumn is a total DO. Tbh a scarf almost anytime is pretty much always a DO for me 😉 I love early autumn for all the layering choices it brings to fashion lovers everywhere. To go from day to evening, I just wrap up in a light scarf or throw a blazer over my shoulders and… Read more →
That’s what I like
In general, I don’t often purchase mesh head appliers that are priced over ~$1,000L. Unless they come with options for tones, eyebrows, or makeups, there is very little reason to spend that much IMO. In fact, I have pretty much completely stopped supporting brands where I think the price is out of line with the rest of the market –… Read more →
To Curate
To curate: to select, arrange and present. Curating pieces to bring together in my own unique way is my preferred way to express myself from a fashion perspective IRL and in SL. I really appreciate SL creators who offer separates that can be curated as we see fit. For those of you who have been around SL for a long… Read more →
Waning Days of Summer
Almost as quickly as the heatwaves arrived, they went. In their wake, a cool breeze, an almost imperceptible shift in the sunset, and a fleeting greeting from the beginning of the end. The waning days of summer are almost upon us. For your shopping pleasure Fortunately our choices in fashion and beauty in Second Life are not waning in any… Read more →
Just Right
You know when things feel just right? I’m celebrating those moments in weekend style when everything I wanted to create worked out almost effortlessly, thanks to the artists of Second Life. I am really loving all the simple, tailored shorts and trousers, relaxed fits, and effortless summer style the season affords us. More isn’t always more when it comes to… Read more →
While I wait for Windows 10 to download…
As I wait for Windows 10 to finish its massive, gargantuan download, I bring you some items that make me happy in Second Life. First, I’ll mention that ELIKA is back \o/ and she is releasing new hair later today at Fameshed. Felicity (does anyone remember this show? I was addicted to it) is – of course – soooo pretty… Read more →
