Out of the Luxe Box and Into My SL closet

Out of the Luxe Box and into my Second Life closet, helping me create looks that are both traditional and edgy; classic and sexy. This month I am trying out Luxe Box for the first time. I have to say that as suspected, I enjoyed the unboxing maybe even more than I will enjoy all the items included. That is… Read more →

Appliers ‘R’ Us

If you’re anything like me, you have hundreds (?!!?) of appliers for your bevy of mesh heads. If you’re someone who prefers to stick to one head or one skin, you might be surprised at those numbers. But for me, it’s just a normal part of my Second Life. I am an equal opportunity consumer and I flex that muscle… Read more →

My fall palette

My fall palette includes a sweet red lip and smoky eye on one day, and a taupe lip and precise winged eyeliner the next. Glam Affair is one of my favorite skin makers (shocker??!!) – and Aida has really embraced the Catwa line of mesh heads to expand her appliers. I mean, you can find new offerings at virtually every… Read more →

Time is short…

…but my shopping list is long! I haven’t had much time to spend in Second Life but I do have an enviable list of beautiful items to post. Starting with the new LeLutka applier from Glam Affair. I fell in love with Debby’s bold brows and fresh face. There are also gorgeous lip colors available, though I like the natural… Read more →

Fall Booties

Last year’s fall boot for me was definitely more equestrian-inspired. This fall? Ankle boots and booties! I might marry my new Rag & Bone booties IRL and I am almost as impressed with the new SL inventory as well. I used to gravitate to jeans when wearing ankle boots, but I definitely feel like skirts/dresses do the job just as… Read more →

Short and Sweet

While I listen to Sia’s new single The Greatest on repeat (so good), I am doing a short and sweet post. I am wearing three new appliers, all beautiful. My favorite is Glam Affair’s Viktoria, which is out today for FLF. I am guilty of acquiring way more than I have been blogging, but I have been itching to jump… Read more →

Packing my Bags

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 →
