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 →
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 →
My cravings for simple fall fashions are sated for the moment. I couldn’t be happier with all the simple, classic and casual choices available at a slew of events and in-store releases. I mentioned here that I had a feeling my friend Dakota Buck was coming back into the SL fashion world, and I was right! You can find Whippet… Read more →
I have been pushing the seasons a bit maybe. Up until today it’s been high 80s and 90s still in Boston. Today it’s finally Fall, low 70s and crystal clear. Absolutely perfect weather but a day late for all the apple picking we did yesterday! I loveeeee the fitted suede dress from Fishy Strawberry. One of my favorite pieces recently… Read more →
…a change in my style is so refreshing. Yes, this isn’t my usual, everyday style, but Second Life makes dressing so much fun when you’re feeling like a change. I built my looks all around my favorite Glam Affair skin probably of all time. Sia – or Sia II to be exact. This was a FLF offering last week and… Read more →
Early fall fashion offers the best clothes, best makeups and a reason to wear boots again \0/. I am pushing it a little as it’s still over 90 degrees here, but the leaves are definitely already turning. It’s beautiful. So here are some early fall looks from a few new releases anchored on simple, fun and staple fashions. The dress… 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 was on the fence about this new head from Rowne. “Dani Meijer” is available in darker tones, and while they are beautiful, I wasn’t sure how often I would wear her. However I have said that before and been very wrong, so … I am enjoying trying her out. I have been a big fan of Rowne since I… Read more →
I feel like I am having to do this a lot – where there’s so much out there that I am loving, I need to do small compilations of things I am enjoying. Honestly though, it’s nice there’s a lull in events right now; it let’s me catch up and enjoy! In fact, I don’t need or plan to buy… Read more →
I recently visited The Seasons Story and once again was absolutely WOW’d by the build. It’s an event that really produces an experience, not just a shopping destination. It’s magical and masterful; and I hope you all have been or plan to go. I was inspired a bit to create this look based around the new headpiece available there from… Read more →
Collabor88 for July is open and it’s quite good, particularly if you like mermaids and starfish 😉 For me, I found some great staples for my wardrobe that I will definitely reuse. Though they may have nothing to do with “under the sea,” there’s always something for everyone at this event, not to mention absolutely great prices. I keep crashing… Read more →
Like so many of you, I’m beginning to branch out to try other mesh heads. I have reviewed several over the last month, and of course, I wear LeLutka regularly. This time it’s Genesis Labs Chloe (2.0) available at The Fantasy Collective. Firstly I will say that while I don’t find Chloe all that “pretty,” I find her look really… Read more →
Essences just released a new face called Aribeth. She comes in 6 tones and each tone comes with 5 eyebrows and associated cleavage versions. You can also buy a lips pack separately with 9 tattoos. I don’t wear Essences often so I was definitely keen to try this one. I like the face; youthful, fresh and very distinct. I’m also… Read more →
I have talked about how shorter dresses aren’t always my favorite in SL. It’s basically because there are sooooo many and I guess most people prefer them. But when I look in my inventory, that’s a lot of what’s in my “dresses not gowns” folder (yes, this is a thing). And of course, there are lovely ones that I still… Read more →
