This was a bit unexpected. I didn’t expect to be inspired so quickly after my declaration that I was on a self-imposed moratorium. But these pieces brought together my style whimsy in a way that was unexpected but so very perfect for a pick me up. I’ll probably never be the blogger in the sexiest dress or new, popular “skimp… Read more →
You know how that one small thing can make your look for the day? My one small thing today is my lipstick. A gorgeous matte red by alaskametro; the perfect contrast to my most favorite Sunny skin, which is now available in the palest tone 1. Both of these beauty items are new at ForMax, an event benefiting SL content… Read more →
October’s Powder Pack for LeLutka mesh heads was just released and this one gets a much more enthusiastic reaction from me than September’s. I was particularly taken with the eye makeups from The Face. Very high quality and diverse colors and styles. Actually there are several makeups that I’ll have to make sure I mention in subsequent posts. Other items… Read more →
May I just say how much I didn’t expect to like this particular new “May” head from LeLutka as much as I do. Like so many of you, I am playing with the new LeLutka Bento heads and they are masterful. But for a diehard “Simone’r”…can they sneak into my rotation? From a functionality perspective, no one – it needs… Read more →
The countdown is on. I leave tomorrow night (!!!) and I’ve got my ticket to travel. I get so anxious before I travel but am usually OK when I get wherever I’m going. Here’s hoping it all goes ok! Anyway, how much do I love this skin from amara, in this month’s LeLutka Powder Pack? A whole lot. Not a… Read more →
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 →
Like the rest of the SL fashion set, my summer short is a great pixie cut courtesy of Tram. How are you guys liking Uber this round anyway? My favorite thing of all? New skin applier from Spirit. I don’t love the moles on the body appliers’ decolletage (available separately at their man store) and Madina comes with no makeup… Read more →
I mentioned I am soon off to London and then Paris. First for work; then for fun! I have to tell you, I am not particularly stressed about how dangerous it may be to travel these days (I mean, you gotta live your life!) but I am concerned about my ability to pack effectively. What I wear while roaming the… Read more →
Disenchanted isn’t a word I use often when it comes to fun things like fashion and beauty. But disenchanted is how I have been feeling despite there being some really good new releases around. I have been gobbling them all up but then, I’m unable to really be happy about how they come together for blogging. I think I need… Read more →
Clearly I didn’t follow the sage advice by Coco Chanel who said, “Before you leave the house, look in the mirror and take one thing off.” Instead, I decided to add something. Or many somethings. I was an a roll 😀 Minimalist is my normal vibe, but I was really feeling the beautiful Easter egg rose color of this new… Read more →
I have to be very brief today so here is a look at a few things on my shopping list. Led by this summery wrapped top and light jacket, I admit it’s a feast of neutrals. I love the look and am always happy when enfant terrible pops up with another example of what it does so well – soft,… Read more →
I quickly browsed the wares at Uber this morning and at first I was like, “meh…” But looks can sometimes be deceiving – at least in this case. I probably walked away with more foundational staples than I have from any event in a while. Foundational staples meaning items I will use over and over (and I really will…I mean,… Read more →
I am just back from a long week of travel and am about to get on the road once again – but this time, to Nantucket and just for an overnight. On a beautiful spring day I have my Nantucket Reds on IRL but I didn’t have quite the right color in SL. So, I put on the closest I… Read more →
This may be the easiest styling I’ve ever done. This hot bodysuit is by Fashionably Dead @Collabor88. Very simple, very classic, and great for layering. But not today. Today the bodysuit comes out from under all the things I usually cover them up with. In other news, I am pretty thrilled with so many great hairs out and about. Like… Read more →
I’m not a big pattern or florals person. I would pick a solid over a pattern 6 out of 7 days of the week. But I love this floral print dress from Valentina E. For me, this is an example of palatable florals. It’s also one of my absolute favorite silhouettes, form fitting and feminine. It’s a quick break in… Read more →
