White River Co

I popped over to the just opened “pop up shop” for the forthcoming collaborative brand between Elikapeka Tiramisu and Darling Monday called, White River Co. Right now it’s a small sampling of the inventory that will presumably be released when the main store opens soon. For now, you can get a sense of the aesthetic through a few key pieces… Read more →

Bright Whites

I stopped by COCO yesterday to check out the inventory I might have missed and the group gift wall – and low and behold, a skirt that had my name all over it. You know I love a monochrome look, coupled with a simple updo. It’s my jam. So perfect for late summer. I’m back in LAQ by the way.… Read more →

Summer rotation

The first LAQ skin applier from The Skinnery is officially in my summer rotation now…and probably every other season tbh. Sofi’s eyebrows are perfection and eyebrows are probably the most important part of a new skin purchase for me (not to mention the most important part of my face IRL!). I wore this skin previously in toffee and today, this… Read more →

It Matters

Customer service matters. It really matters. IRL and SL alike. If you have a bad experience with a brand from a customer service perspective, you’re less likely to ever shop them again. When you have a good experience, it builds loyalty that is additive (with no ceiling or cap to how much loyalty you demonstrate). Two recent positive experiences I… Read more →

Easy Spring Style

I am back from my trip and eager to plan out a whole week of looks encompassing easy spring style. I’m on vacation for a whole week! I can’t guarantee I will be blogging a lot because it’s finally gorgeous outside. <3 But, here are some items that are all must haves for me. If my avatar looks different, it’s… Read more →

What’s new?

So, what’s new with you all? I am entering a long week and then a week away on business travel – so I am going to be scarce. But, a few things I wanted to mention that are new, updated or just interesting! First up, I am swathed in newness from Bauhaus Movement from The Seasons Story and NEO-Japan event.… Read more →

Don’t Miss

Don’t miss items just because they hide out at smaller, lesser-covered events. Don’t miss in-store releases either while I am at it. In this case, don’t miss this pretty updo from Exile. It’s exclusive to The Trunk Show and it’s gorgeous. Who else is loving that Exile is including bases feathered right into the hairs? Natural and perfect <3 OK,… Read more →

Met my match

I met my match with this new skin applier from The Skinnery. I’m wearing Alix in the new Sorbet tone, which also means new Maitreya body appliers are available too. I love the “tummy” option on the new body appliers (each one is sold individually). Keep in mind, you can still use your old body appliers on previous skin tones… Read more →

When in Paris

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 →

Sunday shopping in both lives

I am leaving in a few weeks for London and then Paris \o/ so I spent today doing some Sunday shopping. I meant to post this before I left but…oops! In Second Life, I am wearing the still relatively new Bento head from fiore, coupled with a fresh new skin from The Skinnery. I would *love* to see an applier… Read more →

Spare Me

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 →

A bit undone

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 →

Brows

These brows. Just stop it, ok? They’re so amazing. I recently had my own RL brows microbladed. So worth it! By the way, if you like the bold brows look in SL, then be sure to also play around with the eyebrows included with your LeLutka bento head, because they are completely wild and awesome too. These brows can be… Read more →

I like to be perfect

“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 →

I am not a bot

This week I got a note from someone that said, “I miss when you looked more original. Currently you just look like another LeLutka bot.” I can assure you, I am not a bot. But if I were, I wouldn’t mind looking like this? Still uniquely my own I have talked about the reasons I am trending more towards wearing… Read more →
