Drifting into Summer

Here in Boston, summer has arrived. I’m celebrating with colors that are maybe less than summery :p. Like I talked about here, I’m very into things I can break up and wear as I like. This handkerchief top from miss chelsea is simple and very well done, and I love that it’s not attached to anything (although there are bottoms… Read more →

Pretty. Simple.

Pretty. Simple. Two words that I like best about all these pieces. Nothing is overdone; nothing is too fussy. You don’t even need shoes to create a feel for the dress from [sYs] available at On9. This trench from Emery is the best I have seen in SL since my return. Obviously I love the color (and all the colors… Read more →

Range

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 →

To top it off

Hats. I love wearing hats IRL. In SL? Very hit or miss. Unless they come with the hair (and even sometimes when they do), they can be hard to work with. And when they come rigged to the hair, options for styling are very specifically limited to the type of hair. However for me, anything is better than the blockiness… Read more →

Never go out of style

There really are items we wear – in both lives – that never go out of style. A well made, tailored piece of clothing – or in SL, a well textured, original piece – never goes out of style no matter the decade or century it’s modeled after! Even from far away you can tell The Secret Store has done… Read more →

Context

I mentioned in an earlier post that I am totally unfamiliar with the TV series Twin Peaks. I understand it’s coming back to Showtime next year, so maybe I will get a taste then. Admittedly, I am confused by the theme at this round of Collabor88, but only because I have no context. One thing I am never confused about… Read more →

Do you ever wish…?

That you could walk around in your real life with fairy wings? I do. I wish I could wear my fairy wings, my big spoon, my foxy socks. All the time. One of the greatest things about SL is that it’s easy to express yourself, whether you’re an artist, builder or just a dreamer. I do wish I could find… Read more →

All ribbons and pearls

These Boho Loops from Ane sparked my whole look today. Ribbons and pearls (technically, beads) bohemian style. I pretty much love everything I am wearing. The small pops of powder blue, the realism of the linen dress, and the sweet sandals by Pure Poison. I have to say I have really enjoyed the last several releases of Pure Poison shoes… Read more →

Rounding it up

Some of the items I have newly acquired all in one place! With a bunch of new events coming up (I am looking at you, Uber and Arcade), I wanted to make sure some of these special items didn’t get lost in my inventory, which this time around, I am working very hard to keep very small. I am truly… Read more →

Go big or go home

I feel like that’s a sports thing, but in this case, I am talking about hair. Little Bones doesn’t do subtle as far as I can see. This is a good thing because the hairs are unapologetic and the textures are very distinct to their brand. The shine on the browns is pretty epic although the stylings don’t always flatter… Read more →

Buttoned up

I think the Vintage Chiffon dress from Zenith was one of the first items I saw teased from Shiny Shabby. I wanted it from the moment I saw it. I am very happy with it, although I think it’s hard to accessorize properly because it’s one of those dresses that speaks quite well for itself. The only thing I would… Read more →

Fantasy…or something else

Whatever you call it, The Fantasy Collective opened today and was packed. I don’t typically explore the fantasy side of SL – probably because I happen to play two (!!) fantasy MMOs so I get my fill there. However, I had seen this dress earlier in the day and knew it was something I would love. It’s a perfect combination… Read more →
