Hitting Refresh

I am hitting the refresh button today. Taking a fresh look at what’s in my inventory and where the holes are. In particular, I am looking at ever-popular Second Life subscription “boxes” like Luxe Box (FD: the only one I participate in) and others. Is Second Life moving farther and farther away from a la carte to mostly event/themed/packaged shopping?… Read more →

Blues Baby

I have so much in my inventory I am keen to blog at some point, but today, I am crushing on some blues. Subtle blue accents that stand out against a very pale outfit. I admit that I am having trouble switching out of my LeLutka Simone head. This time, I am experimenting with the beautiful bushy eyebrows from the… Read more →

Both Sides Now

As the snow continues to fall here in Boston, I sit quietly listening to Joni Mitchell. You know the song from Love Actually, where Emma Thompson’s character unwraps a Christmas gift from her husband, and it’s not the necklace she saw him buy? That went to his secretary -_- I have always loved the song Both Sides Now so very… Read more →

Exquisite, delicate

Exquisite. This dress from Dead Dollz just whispers exquisite, delicate. You can wear it with a full gown base or with a bodysuit, letting the lace really stand out. The back is delightfully detailed and sexy; the front, demure or risque. It’s billed as a bridal gown, but seeing as that isn’t something in my plans atm, not every gown… Read more →

Opposite Day

On Opposite Day, we celebrate (?) an unofficial holiday when every action is modified so that the meaning is negated. Kind of like living in the United States these days -_-  For my Opposite Day, I am wearing a see-through dress, pink hair, and pasties. I am also wearing almost nothing that would be considered a new release 😮 That… Read more →

Good Bones

My grandmother always used to say, “as long as you start with good bones.” She didn’t just mean my cheekbones hidden by baby fat at the time; she meant the “bones” of everything – fabric, fashion, houses, gardens, and especially horses. Good Bones Meaning, as long as the foundation is solid, the rest was immaterial. I am not sure what… Read more →

Styled with love

I have never been the color red’s biggest fan. IRL, I rarely wear it, other than accents and accessories. But then there are days like today where red is the only thing that felt right. You might say I’ve been styled with love. Styled with love I have been wanting to try this newish group gift from Maitreya. I love… Read more →

Covered Up

I realized I am quite covered up today, nearly head to toe actually. Despite all the sporty and sexy newness being released, I chose a fitted coat and mid-length skirt combination from AMITOMO @Kustom9. Covered up or not, it’s just a great winter look. As for my boots, they’re absolute perfection IMO (and this is not something I often say)… Read more →

Winter Whites

I’m wearing winter whites today, inspired by a breathtakingly cold day in Boston. I needed something to inspire some warmth, ok? In addition to my whites, I hit up Tram yesterday for FLF and found a great sale I had no idea about -_-. Most fatpacks are deeply discounted. I feasted on that for sure but I did note how… Read more →

It’s love, actually

You may note that I have on the same hair as I did in my last blog. The reason? It’s love, actually. Thank you, Burley, for a hair that I wish to wear not just once, in one color, but in every color and variation on the styling HUD. Hallelujah! You’ll also note a new coat and sweatshirt/blouse option from… Read more →

Rabbit Rabbit

“Rabbit, Rabbit” for good luck on any new month. Double good luck for the New Year! One of the things I am going to try in this New Year is to spend less time futzing with my blog posts. That is, taking a million snapshots and then writing a ton for every post. I don’t know if it will stick… Read more →

The List of What Was…

What a difference a year makes! Another year nearly came and went without the list of what was, but luckily I made it just in the nick of time. Here’s my short, opinionated take on things I loved and things I could do without in the New Year Some of my most favorite things from 2016 in SL Milan appliers… Read more →

You pays your money…

“You pays your money…and you takes your chances.” That old idiom is Second Life’s Luxe Box in a nutshell. The unboxing is especially fun IMO, but you do have to be OK with the roll of the dice so to speak. And then, not complain about what you get because that is the game. You Pays Your Money and You… Read more →

I Fancy

I have been so caught up elsewhere, I haven’t been blogging. I could give you the normal list of IRL or I could tell you that other things have my attention. Both would be true. It is the holidays after all and my main MMO has an expansion out. So instead, here are some things I Fancy. I realize today… Read more →
