I did say that Hair Fair was inspiring so many fashion ideas in my mind that I then set out to build. Tableau Vivant’s Tuko is one of them. And so is Powder Pack for LeLutka. I mean, hi, the skin from Modish might actually be my most favorite skin offered in Powder Pack to date. In fact, this whole… Read more →
Today called for something a bit undone. Natural, comfortable and casual; like when everything isn’t firing on all cylinders but is quite happy to be like that. I know I have been MIA this past week or so, but I go through spurts of being inspired and then completely bored by SL fashion. It only takes one small thing to… Read more →
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 →
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 →
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 →
Layering in the summer is almost unheard of. But, it can be done. It can even be done in Second Life, where it’s significantly harder to layer effectively due to meshes and sizing. For regular readers, if you saw this pleated skirt from Tetra @Uber, you had to know I was going to go nuts for it. Indeed, it’s like… Read more →
Part II of my top picks at Skin Fair continues, this time focusing on Fiore, one of my newer recommended head lines. There are several applier releases from Fiore at Skin Fair, as well as other creators for the 5 Fiore heads. For my purposes, I picked two of Fiore’s own offerings: Doll and Taylor. Two totally different skins with… Read more →
Quick on the heels of my very short 2016 wish list, I have been sniffing around the events in the new year, looking for items that really strike my fancy. Oddly enough, only a few things have grabbed me. Some great hairs, select appliers, and accessories here and there. Have the winter doldrums stolen my zest for shopping? No, I… Read more →
This is an opinion piece that’s been rattling around my head. I have attempted to put it out there without making it War and Peace length. I very much welcome comments and all different opinions! Think about how you shop for your clothes, shoes or accessories IRL. Those brands that you’re attached to and keep coming back to. You could… Read more →
Despite more event openings, I really began this look with revisiting some of my favorites, both in my inventory and by visiting the main stores of several designers. Novel, I know! After I came back to SL last winter, “Blair” (The Skinnery) was the first skin I fell in love with after Glam Affair. I can’t get enough of the… Read more →
I adore long hair. In the last year I had my stylist cut my hair into a medium bob and I cried for days. #firstworldproblems. It took me a year to grow it out and today it’s finally the perfect length for me. I am kinda obsessed with it actually. In SL of course, perfect hair for the day is… Read more →
This is Mudskin’s Ria at Shiny Shabby in the chocolate tone. I just love this face – the subtle freckles, the lovely lips, and all the tattoo options you get in each makeup pack. Once again, I am wearing a much darker tone than my usual Sunny but I love it, particularly the contrast with my light eyes from [Buzzeri],… Read more →
How people dress on their down days is pretty interesting. I mean, if you think about it, it’s easy to “dress up” when you have say, a set dress, pair of shoes and jewelry in a ready made look. It’s when we have time off – and can dress however we want – that often really shows a style preference.… Read more →
Hats. I love wearing hats IRL. In SL? Very hit or miss. Unless they come with the hair (and even sometimes when they do), they can be hard to work with. And when they come rigged to the hair, options for styling are very specifically limited to the type of hair. However for me, anything is better than the blockiness… Read more →
Yesterday was intimate, today is intricate. I feel like because designs in SL often have to be exaggerated to be “seen,” sometimes the subtleties of a piece of jewelry or belt, for example, are overlooked. So this is all about those details that make whatever we’re wearing special. Very. Even if you’re the only person who notices because everyone else… Read more →
