I am currently packing my bags and getting ready to skedaddle to Scotland for a couple weeks for some exploring! I have never been to that part of the UK, so I am very, very excited! There is so much I wanted to blog before I left but technical difficulties got in the way (as a result, the quality of… Read more →

In Your Dreams
In your dreams, do you picture long, flowing gowns with lace, tulle and bows? In your dreams, do you imagine jewels worthy of the unique woman you are? In your dreams, do you wish for a magic button to get you in to full sims any time you want? YUH, me too!! Sadly, IRL I don’t have much need to… Read more →
Mean Business
If you’ve been around SL for a longggg while, you might remember Shai of Casa del Shai releasing a suit set themed, “Mean Business.” It was incredibly well made and keep in mind, these were the days long before mesh. Imagine the constraints on an artist only being able to work with the system avatar?!!? Textures really had to be… Read more →
Neutral Territory
I’m still hanging out in neutral territory today – my favorite place to be a lot of the time 😮 Mesh Body Addicts – August 1 On August 1, Mesh Body Addicts opens where you can find these pretty skirts by new to me, fame femme. I love the length and the light, tulle-like texture. It comes with options for… Read more →
Layering in the Summer
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 →
Undone – in a heatwave
I am going for completely undone looks today, smack in the middle of a heatwave. I spent the whole work week in stifling Miami Beach and then came home to Boston to not much better. #firstworldproblems When it’s this hot and humid, it’s not so much just wearing less clothes as it is wearing loose clothes and undone hair. I… Read more →
Hair Fair 2016: Quick Look
Hair Fair 2016 opens tomorrow and it’s superb. So much respect to Sasy, Whimsy, and their whole Hair Fair team, for creating an easy to traverse, well laid out collection of sims to shop from. It’s a great cause and a wonderful collection of designers to celebrate. Coming from someone who hates crowds, even in SL, this is something you… 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 →
Quickie: Veechi Shadows
I have been working on a bunch of longer posts this week but time got away from me and I haven’t had a moment to finish them. So today, here’s quite literally just a quickie. But a goodie. A quickie goodie? If you do nothing else today in Second Life from a shopping perspective, do yourself a favor and pick… Read more →
This is my jam
As uninspired as I have been, I was just as quickly sparked back to life by recent releases! It’s so funny how one seemingly small piece can inspire a whole host of looks. In this case, I’m giving credit to fri.day and the Harper Clogs (24×7 pack, of course) available at Shiny Shabby. They’re not so much clog-ish (a good… Read more →
Fashion and Beauty Round-up
I have been away for the last week+ and am in serious need of some SL catch up time. However I don’t see it happening today as life is kinda crazy, so here’s a fashion and beauty round-up of some of the the items I think are really worth picking up. Like, really. Beauty First up, I have been on… Read more →
SquadGoals
#SquadGoals Soooo many new appliers are out this week from Glam Affair. I am going to be a little hyperbolic and say that they are my favorite makeups from Aida for months and months. I was inspired to form a little Girl Squad a la Taylor Swift. Normally I do a lot more chattering, but I think I will just… Read more →
Crisp, Clean, Minimal
It’s one of those days where less is more. Where crisp whites, bright pops of color, and clean, minimal styles win me over. Also winning me over is the new applier from Glam Affair at Collabor88. I like it on my Gwen head best. Tangerine isn’t a terribly popular color in SL I don’t think. I happen to love it,… Read more →
Crankypants
I have crankypants on. They are so uncomfortable that I am not showing you. But seriously, when it’s April and Mother (f-ing) Nature decides to give you 8 inches of snow, crankypants are a given. Also, so very little is inspiring me in SL fashion/beauty that I really haven’t felt compelled to blog. Just crankypants all around. The couple bright… Read more →
Editorial: For the Fashion Obsessed
I am sure many of my fellow bloggers are RL fashionistas too? I know I have been labeled a bit obsessed IRL, but fashion and beauty, in terms of personal expression, are two of my great passions. One of the joys of being all grown up is being able to explore and indulge my interests full on. Though some covet… Read more →
