Top 3 reasons things get stuck in my inventory

As I prepare space in my inventory for Shiny Shabby (yay!!!!)…I take a hard look at what I haven’t worn and consider why…why do things get stuck in my inventory? #1 – Where would I wear it? I love the look of whatever it is but for whatever reason, it won’t be seen beyond my attic skybox. It’s SL so… Read more →

Taking risks

Anna Wintour is one of my heroes. She is fascinating and mysterious, unless you believe everything written in The Devil Wears Prada. One of the things I love about her is that no matter what she is wearing (I mean aside from her sunglasses), she will look strong but still very feminine. She doesn’t consider herself a powerful person, yet… Read more →

Making it fit

I have worn several pieces from Seul over the last couple of months and have been generally happy with them. Very on trend and modern. This is the Emile playsuit from this round of Uber. I discovered that wearing this particular dress with my Maitreya Lara mesh body created a few issues because of the plunging neckline versus the alpha… 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 →

Going both ways…

Not to be cheeky, but it was fun taking the same outfit from Tee*fy and dressing it up completely differently. None of us are the same from day to day. Why should our fashion be? The Lana V-neck romper is sure to be one of the most purchased items from this round of Uber, featuring some of our best designers’… 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 →

In the East

I debated picking this up from GizzA at Shiny Shabby. I like the colors available (all soft options) and the patterns are gorgeous but I rarely like the way cable knit looks in SL. I would have preferred the dress with the sweater optional (and I would have liked a tea length option too 😉 ). In the end though,… 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 →

Old world

More from the fantastic Shiny Shabby event, which I have already gushed over. More beautiful items that can be styled so many ways. Mmmmm I love the softness of this beautiful set by UFO. I will be going back for more colors because the texturing is exquisite. I love when something is not overdone but so obviously made with great… Read more →

Shiny Shabby

It did not disappoint. One of the best – I think actually the best – event I have been to since my return to SL. So much to love, so much to take in. It will definitely take multiple trips for me to see it all. I tend to rush in and rush out when a sim is so packed.… 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 →

Sugar

I have been listening non-stop to Maroon 5’s “Sugar.” Roslin put out a sugary-sweet version of her Temptress Bodysuit for FLF at Luxuria. It fits with the song so well. The back is so sexy. The front is so sweet. Read more →

Bookworm

I feel like a real bookworm sometimes. I’d rather get cozy with a book…than just about anything else (ok, not anything else). Today is my last day at home before braving the mountains of snow to get back into my office. It’s been so difficult to get anywhere in Boston because you can’t see around any corners, let alone share… Read more →

Yes please

I saw these shoes when I first went to Feb L’accessoires but I skipped them the first time through because I normally look for shoes for my various mesh bodies. Of course, it was somehow lost on me that with the socks attached, I didn’t need to worry about feet at all! On my second pass through (am I the… Read more →
