Hello, Holidays

This week kicks off another year of making merry, beginning here in the US with Thanksgiving tomorrow. I am already working on my holiday wardrobe IRL and noting how much easier it is in SL! I am wearing a new applier by Milan for fiore, shown on three different head shapes. I will just say that Milan has quickly become… 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 →

Unpacking my bags

Just returned from my vacation to Scotland and am avoiding unpacking my bags. Instead, I am diving back in to SL fashion (as my RL clothes sit in my suitcase). As I let the jetlag wash over me, I am delighting in all the wonderful items released in my absence. While apparently I am perfectly fine leaving everything strewn around… Read more →

ICYMI: Fiore Mesh Head Updates

In case you missed it (ICYMI), the long-awaited head/applier updates from Fiore have arrived. You should have received your updates automatically, but I definitely recommend visiting the re-delivery terminal at the main store to make sure everything is current. Why update? The biggest change is that now, each head comes with a central control HUD, which governs most of the… 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 →

Summer Fashion: Going Long

I know, summer is supposed to be about short sundresses and skimpy skirts, amirite? Nothing against those, but for me, often predictable and sometimes uninspired. In this post, I’m going long for the summer and enjoying every moment of it. I am addicted to the colors of the long, gorgeous dresses from Tetra. Like delicious sorbets! When you want to… Read more →

Elaborate Embellishments: A Bag Worth Buying

I can remember a time when I didn’t put a lot of thought into using bags for my blogs in Second Life. This was back in the days long before mesh, hell, before anything other than carrying what were essentially shoe boxes on your arm. No really. It’s so nice to be able to not just blog, but regularly actually… 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 →

Like I said…

I say this a lot – like over and over – but to me, “beauty” is when things are imperfect. Give me wild, real brows and freckles or beauty marks all day er’day. Give me bright, real faces and less airbrushing. So Like I said… The truth is, perfection is boring ^^. In a world where we can literally be… Read more →

Profiles

Do our avatars have their “good sides” like their RL typists? Does one profile dominate the other? I honestly feel like my avatar has a good profile and a weaker one. Oddly it’s the same side as my RL one. I wonder if that means – like so many things – that it’s all in my mind 😮 This is… Read more →

A Harmony of Hues

Vibrant pinks and the palest blushes play happily together in this little ensemble of dresses, available from various events around Second Life. If you follow me regularly, you know that I don’t do many shorter, flouncy dresses, but I do some. I couldn’t resist the harmony of hues here, and of course I am particularly fond of the criss-cross spring… Read more →

Perfect Pairings

I haven’t blogged all week but that doesn’t mean I haven’t been out and about 😉 I just really wasn’t as inspired as I need to be to put things together that I have been acquiring. Until today that is. From sales and events, to items I just love from my inventory – some perfect pairings for your weekend enjoyment.… Read more →

Inspired

These new hairs from around the grid inspired my styles today. From tailored and casual to slightly ethereal, I just let my hairs dictate the fashion. I was particularly excited that Entwined is back at Shiny Shabby. One of my most recommended hair creators, and I *always* notice when one of those takes a break. Now, I am only missing… Read more →

Girlie & Glam

I am kicking off the New Year with a post that embodies two of my favorite stylings, Girlie & Glam. Thankfully the creators of Second Life offer plentiful inventory for both categories. Today also kicks off my HUGE inventory purge. I have a number in mind I want to get it down to, so I will be ruthless. I actually… Read more →

Playing Catch Up

I am just back from almost two weeks away and am playing a serious game of Catch Up! I don’t know if/when I will get through everything I intended to blog but I will certainly try. I have missed sooooooo much and my IMs were capped on the first day so if you tried to contact me, please send a… Read more →
