Summertime in Earnest

Summertime seems to have arrived in earnest now. And with it, sunny colors, easy fits and more relaxed fashion. The artists of Collabor88 June responded in kind with some of the most colorful, whimsical offerings. Personally I think many people will be most excited by the many great hairs from Elikatira, Exile and others, and most especially, the new dress… Read more →

Making a Statement

I was inspired by several items I have collected over this last week to focus a post on making a statement. My necklace from Shi is very much a statement necklace, although I have done a masterful job of hiding some of it :p I also love the new ring set from ieQED at We <3 RP. You don’t have… Read more →

I keep telling myself…

The Arcade Gacha. Well, as much as I tell myself I just won’t do it. I still do. And that’s of course because the content calls for it. I’m wearing the new face from The Skinnery, which was worth the trip by itself quite honestly. I really do hope to see more applier-based skins for LeLutka very soon too. I… Read more →

A dress is a dress…

…but often, the shoes help make the dress. At least these shoes do 😀 I was so happy when I logged in tonight to find The Secret Store released new T-strap heels, including ones for Maitreya Lara feet \o/. There are lots of colors available including brights, neutrals and pastels. I didn’t have time to snap them all, so here’s… Read more →

Over it

This is my favorite Collabor88 to date. I’m kinda over the whole sweet skirt thing for now so I was happy to see that some of my favorite designers went a different direction here. Like these slick jeans from Tres Blah. And this perfectly textured romper from Tee*fy. I am showing navy here because it’s super rich. My favorite pieces… Read more →

Luxury is…

…the ease of a T-shirt in a very expensive dress, said Karl Lagerfeld. This unique (and expensive) dress from GizzA will be worn only for you all because I would have nowhere to wear it in SL. I am not wearing the hydrangea chest accoutrement it also comes with because I looked like Zsa Zsa Gabor, although it’s quite spectacular.… Read more →

Opening Day

In Boston, Opening Day is a rite of passage for any Bostonian. Yes, we love the Patriots, but Boston is still Red Sox country. It’s going to be glorious today – very warm and perfectly sunny so I’m especially happy. I won’t be attending the game but I am inspired to dress just as the weather dictates and keep my… Read more →

90 Days Later

~90 days and 60+ posts after I returned to blogging after many years away, I am on the verge of doing the first quarter purge of my inventory. I want to keep it at 20k or less. This is a spectacular goal considering I used to hover around 100k when I was blogging before. The only things in my inventory… Read more →

Top 3 reasons things get stuck in my inventory

As I prepare space in my inventory for Shiny Shabby (yay!!!!)…I take a hard look at what I haven’t worn and consider why…why do things get stuck in my inventory? #1 – Where would I wear it? I love the look of whatever it is but for whatever reason, it won’t be seen beyond my attic skybox. It’s SL so… Read more →

Context

I mentioned in an earlier post that I am totally unfamiliar with the TV series Twin Peaks. I understand it’s coming back to Showtime next year, so maybe I will get a taste then. Admittedly, I am confused by the theme at this round of Collabor88, but only because I have no context. One thing I am never confused about… Read more →

Do you ever wish…?

That you could walk around in your real life with fairy wings? I do. I wish I could wear my fairy wings, my big spoon, my foxy socks. All the time. One of the greatest things about SL is that it’s easy to express yourself, whether you’re an artist, builder or just a dreamer. I do wish I could find… Read more →

Adventures in Gacha-ing…

Gacha is a new phenomenon since I came back to SL. It existed in one form or another way back when, but there wasn’t an entire category dedicated to it. In general, I am not a huge fan. I understand the way it works, but it’s frustrating to spend money on something not being able to guarantee what you get.… Read more →
