jetlag

Jetlag isn’t so bad

I am so jetlagged that I go to bed at 7:00 pm and wake up at 2:00 am. I eat all day long and my PJs are about as fashionable as I can muster. But as it turns out, jetlag isn’t so bad. It means I can catch up on the 46 shows my DVR recorded (wtf?) and style new… Read more →

Say oui!

With sincere apologies to all my real French friends and readers, I say oui! To my favorite city in the world; to my fashion dreams; and to all the adventures I hope to have this week in Paris! I am wearing some of my favorite new pieces that I thought came together for a fun, “fake French” look on my… Read more →

Sunday shopping in both lives

I am leaving in a few weeks for London and then Paris \o/ so I spent today doing some Sunday shopping. I meant to post this before I left but…oops! In Second Life, I am wearing the still relatively new Bento head from fiore, coupled with a fresh new skin from The Skinnery. I would *love* to see an applier… Read more →

Pretty Primrose

I love a pretty primrose yellow. I think it’s probably an especially tough tone to get right in a pixelated world and often looks too mustard-y in my favorite windlights. But all my pretty primrose accessories here in this Springy look are anything but “mustard-y.” I <3 a sunny day – or an outfit that makes me think of a… Read more →

Second Life Shopping List

On my shopping list

I have to be very brief today so here is a look at a few things on my shopping list. Led by this summery wrapped top and light jacket, I admit it’s a feast of neutrals. I love the look and am always happy when enfant terrible pops up with another example of what it does so well – soft,… Read more →

fiore’s First Bento Release

I am literally leaving to jump on a plane but before I go, I wanted to post the new Alura bento mesh head release from fiore. This is fiore’s first bento head and it’s currently discounted for a short time so a good idea to grab her if you like her. I like Alura, even though there is some way… Read more →

Out from under

This may be the easiest styling I’ve ever done. This hot bodysuit is by Fashionably Dead @Collabor88. Very simple, very classic, and great for layering. But not today. Today the bodysuit comes out from under all the things I usually cover them up with. In other news, I am pretty thrilled with so many great hairs out and about. Like… Read more →

And now for something completely different

I have been lamenting for a while that it’s been difficult for me to evaluate or even properly demo any of the Bento mesh heads from Genesis Lab. Until this one. So, now for something completely different, I am wearing Sofie, new from Genesis Lab. The reason this one is different for me and I am trying it? It was… Read more →

Spare Me

Please spare me any more renditions of laced “gladiator” sandals and “rompers” this season, if possible. I know these seem to be super popular in SL but … there are seriously 30+ different versions out right now and I cannot figure out why? How did I miss the origins of these two polar opposite trends that appear only in Second… 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 →

Sunday Style

Sunday style = 2 parts casual and comfortable, 1 part tailored. I love these trousers. I love them so much I have them in all colors (except green – I do not like green!). I need them in white, please, SPIRIT! Make it happen! This is my Sunday style and it all centers on my comfortable but tailored trousers (more… Read more →

I like to be perfect

“I like to be perfect but I don’t like perfection.” – Alber Elbaz How true, Mr. Elbaz (one of my most favorite designers and fashion personalities – famous for hating to be seen as a “personality” and hating to have his photo taken). What does this have to do with what I am wearing? Well, I guess I find “perfection”… Read more →

Sweet Cate

Now that Skin Fair is in full swing, I’m really checking out the wear-ability of all my new skins and one new head. Cate. From LeLutka, of course. I am also wearing a skin from Candy Doll that I didn’t expect to like, but I do! I originally waited to wear Cate after getting what I can only describe as… Read more →

Skin Fair Part II: YSYS

This is Kirsten from YSYS, another new skin applier for LeLutka at Skin Fair 2017. One of the best things about Skin Fair for me is really expanding my skin portfolio but also, starting fresh. What??? You mean, you actually delete older skins/appliers and start over? Yes, yes I do. Don’t twitch when I tell you… I don’t even box… Read more →

Shapes

I was messing around with shapes as I tried on the new mesh head from LeLutka this weekend. It got me thinking about my shape and how it has changed – or hasn’t changed, as it were. At the end of the day, however I present my avatar in Second Life, it is version of me that I choose to… Read more →
