I recently raved about the new mesh heads and appliers from Fiore, released at the end of the year. To my delight, the brand released another, completely different applier, Jing, available in 3 tones to work with all five Fiore head shapes. It’s no secret I love Asian skins, mesh heads, and now, appliers. It’s remarkable to me how different… Read more →
I am one of those freaks of nature who don’t really like red. It’s a color I almost never wear – in either life. The only time of year I will even consider it is around the holidays. And even then, usually only on my nails or a scarf or clutch. I don’t even like red roses 😮 But, I… Read more →
Be honest. How many times do you wear your hairs in Second Life on average? For me, I wear my favorites over and over and over, as evidenced by the last year of blogging. But between hairs and shoes in Second life, too much is never enough. I am a certified “shoe whore” IRL and a “hair whore” in Second… Read more →
It’s that time again. Every quarter (three months), I go through my inventory for the Great Quarterly Inventory Purge and pick out my personal favorite hairs of the previous quarter. I meticulously go through and delete items in my inventory that I can’t see reusing. Why? Because I like to keep my inventory tidy and compact; very unlike the first… Read more →
…but I am glad there is one. I don’t need a reason to visit my favorite brands’ main stores tbh. It’s still weird to me that it’s now so novel to actually TP around and enjoy the spaces that my favorite artists have created. I like MIX because it’s very specifically not a destination event. Instead, it’s designed to get… 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 knew I would eventually end up doing this post. Despite my boredom around some shorter, “girly” dresses in Second Life, these dresses are all exceptions for me. Why? Extraordinary construction and/or textures you can almost feel. The top of the Dreamy Dress from Pixicat at Collabor88 is textured in a way that I can almost feel the fabric if… Read more →
Where I live, once the calendar hit about August 6, an almost imperceptible change happened. Lights in my house are now being flipped on around 7:00 rather than 8:00. The air conditioning isn’t running much and the evening air has the slightest hint of a chill. The seasons are signaling a change. It’s my favorite time of year, but so… Read more →
I believe today is the last day for Hair Fair 2015. I still have about 20 hairs in my inventory to wear O.o, and I will get there – but it clearly won’t be in time for the Fair to still be open. I am quite sure most people have been and shopped exhaustively, but just in case you missed… Read more →
I have so much new stuff in my inventory. What you see here is a collection of a few looks I put together based on all this “stuff” – all of which I really love, btw. Firstly I’ll mention that The Skinnery has just moved and there’s a new group gift in the store, plus all the basic AV skins… Read more →
Love can be so fickle. I can love my mesh heads all day long and then decide I need to go back to me. These skins by Mudskin made me fall in love all over again. In a perfect world, I could apply ANY skin I wanted onto ANY head at the click of a HUD 😉 All these skins… Read more →
Summer is the best time for neutrals for me. I do them in fall too, but summer just lends itself. Incidentally, I first passed by this hair from Blues, but then went back and I’m so glad I did. Totally fun, summer hair! All of these pieces are 100% fitted mesh from various designers. I’ve said fitted pieces are hit… Read more →
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 →
One of the ways I express my style offline is to include small pops of my favorite colors into my daily wear, most often through accessories, so as not to overwhelm with one color. The pop I’ve included here is Rowne’s Vittoria Leather Tote in powder (Feb Collabor88) in an otherwise muted outfit. The bag is similar to the one… Read more →
