I have a “To Blog” folder that literally never empties and not because I am always adding to it. But because I wait until I can use something in the way that I had been waiting for. You might call it, the great wait. I’m guessing that’s not all that popular in SL fashion blogging 😉 Several of my items… Read more →
Oh hey, it’s my favorite dusty rose color again. No, I don’t get tired of it. Like, ever. But the truth is, I am not actually completely aware I am repeating my favorite colors over and over and over. It’s a matter of taste, I guess. I’m blogging more of my haul from Uber and a new to me event,… Read more →
Your eyes do not deceive you. Yes, I finally put on a Catwa head again :o. After some shape shifting, I finally found a look that I liked for today. Different strokes for different folks, as they say. I am working on my 2017 Year in Review post and as part of that, I inevitably take stock of everything that… Read more →
Do you know what a “Willow Pack” is? How many of you are that old school? I’ll wait xD… A Willow Pack is another name for what most everyone knows today as the “fatpack.” It was named for the one and only Willow Zander, a friend and a fellow blogger who has been out of SL for a while now.… Read more →
There is no question that I have been on the hunt lately. On the hunt for something fashionably different IRL and SL. I am mostly done with “summer fashion trends” (probably because I am already deep into my huge September fashion issues). I adore Fall so I am really focused on shifting my wardrobe a bit for a transition. I… Read more →
Do you ever hope for something to be made in Second Life and then it happens? That’s a bit how I felt about the first skin for LeLutka from Milan by Milan Jones. Lisa is everything I love about Milan’s skins – but for the first time, on my favorite mesh head platform! A hope that came to be in… Read more →
I mentioned I am soon off to London and then Paris. First for work; then for fun! I have to tell you, I am not particularly stressed about how dangerous it may be to travel these days (I mean, you gotta live your life!) but I am concerned about my ability to pack effectively. What I wear while roaming the… Read more →
I quickly browsed the wares at Uber this morning and at first I was like, “meh…” But looks can sometimes be deceiving – at least in this case. I probably walked away with more foundational staples than I have from any event in a while. Foundational staples meaning items I will use over and over (and I really will…I mean,… Read more →
Please spare me any more renditions of laced “gladiator” sandals and “rompers” this season, if possible. I know these seem to be super popular in SL but … there are seriously 30+ different versions out right now and I cannot figure out why? How did I miss the origins of these two polar opposite trends that appear only in Second… Read more →
Today called for something a bit undone. Natural, comfortable and casual; like when everything isn’t firing on all cylinders but is quite happy to be like that. I know I have been MIA this past week or so, but I go through spurts of being inspired and then completely bored by SL fashion. It only takes one small thing to… Read more →
“I like to be perfect but I don’t like perfection.” – Alber Elbaz How true, Mr. Elbaz (one of my most favorite designers and fashion personalities – famous for hating to be seen as a “personality” and hating to have his photo taken). What does this have to do with what I am wearing? Well, I guess I find “perfection”… Read more →
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 →
I feel like “light layers” describes so many of my fashion choices. As the seasons change, so many great opportunities to mix a mid-weight shawl with a late summer skirt or a jean jacket with dressier pleats. I love the inherent casual comfort that comes from loose layers that look like afterthoughts, but really aren’t. A lot of what I… Read more →
Last year’s fall boot for me was definitely more equestrian-inspired. This fall? Ankle boots and booties! I might marry my new Rag & Bone booties IRL and I am almost as impressed with the new SL inventory as well. I used to gravitate to jeans when wearing ankle boots, but I definitely feel like skirts/dresses do the job just as… Read more →
To curate: to select, arrange and present. Curating pieces to bring together in my own unique way is my preferred way to express myself from a fashion perspective IRL and in SL. I really appreciate SL creators who offer separates that can be curated as we see fit. For those of you who have been around SL for a long… Read more →
