Quick on the heels of my very short 2016 wish list, I have been sniffing around the events in the new year, looking for items that really strike my fancy. Oddly enough, only a few things have grabbed me. Some great hairs, select appliers, and accessories here and there. Have the winter doldrums stolen my zest for shopping? No, I… Read more →
If anyone else remembers Benetton, then you might remember the United Colors campaigns that were so ahead of their time. Today it’s normal to see diversity celebrated in major media, but back in the 80s and 90s, not so much. But Benetton embraced the beautiful differences in women of every size and shape, color and ethnicity. These ads made a… Read more →
Taking an outfit that I could potentially make “too cute” and instead, make it feel a bit more sophisticated was just what I was looking for today. I pretty much love everything I am wearing, although the skirt on this set from Zenith @ Kustom9 is a tad too short for my general, everyday tastes. Even so, I love the… Read more →
It happens to be almost 75 degrees here in Boston today. It’s beautiful, blustery with remnants of a passing hurricane, and bursting with fall color. But it’s not like I can walk outside with my favorite cape or I would broil. So, how am I dressing seasonally appropriate when it’s so warm out? Like ^ that. Maybe I would add… 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 →
Beige isn’t boring to me. Not IRL and not in SL, where sometimes subtle colors or designs go overlooked. It’s a staple that can be worn in any season, except maybe the Christmas holidays? Even then…I might still wear it as a winter almost white 🙂 I would just like to say that I especially covet the skirt from OVH… Read more →
I am a big fan of structure when it comes to fashion. Even on a casual day, I often lean towards a tailored or structured look and then add softness as I go. I found some items in Second Life that I was drawn to and that do structure really well. Back in the day (I can say that seeing… Read more →
It’s Friday and I am so ready for the weekend! Let’s do this! I am taking a short but very fashionable (in my mind) trip to NYC this weekend. It’s going to be crisp and cool. I have packed accordingly and am mirroring that in SL before I go. Some of these items can be found at the new round… Read more →
I don’t know about anyone else but I am wrapping up an incredibly intense work week. I couldn’t log in, definitely couldn’t blog, and was asleep by 10:00 most nights only to be back in the office again by 7:00 a.m. the next day 😮 It’s good to be back! Annoyingly, I actually did have a blog all tee’d up… Read more →
I’m ready for even more heads, LeLutka and others! We have reached critical mass with skin/makeup appliers and now the drumbeat is growing louder for more heads, pl0x. These new appliers are from Swallow, available only at the new Alice event (I hate the name, but you guys know which one). I imagine you can’t just whip them up, but… Read more →
This is Lara Hurley’s first contribution to the LeLutka mesh head market. Alena is shown here in the Milky tone (the lightest available). I think Alena is absolutely beautiful. Shown here on my Lotte head, the pack comes in your chosen tone with an applier for all 6 available mesh heads. There are 4 eyebrow options for each type of… Read more →
I was hoping for LeLutka head appliers from The Skinnery and Silke arrived yesterday at The Chapter Four second anniversary. I LOVE <3!! The Silke appliers can be worn with any of your LeLutka Mesh heads. I am wearing them here on Stella, Lotte and Karin for example. Silke creates a really “full” face if that makes sense. The appliers… Read more →
When you’re just coming back to SL, you don’t know who anyone is in terms of cross brands. You just enjoy whatever is out there and quality always comes to the front. I have worn many items from Celoe and had no idea there was any relation to a brand – in various forms – I have enjoyed for nearly… Read more →
I am a big fan of ISON by Harry Hyx. There aren’t loads of releases but you can usually catch ISON at Collabor88 monthly, and it’s always something to look forward to. For the punk-inspired round, Harry offers a structured dress with loads of detail that make this particular dress a staple. I particularly like it in the deep eggplant… Read more →
Fameshed is open and there is a very wide range of items available. A few of my favorites include this leather dress from Emery, shoes from Just Design and necklace from Cae. I rarely wear tattoos but I really like this one from Pervette available at Cosmopolitan. Unfortunately you can’t see the crow holding the rosary here, but it’s very… Read more →
