Happy “get away” day

Today is unofficially “get away” day. That is, the Friday before our major July 4th holiday, when millions of Americans take to the roads and drive to various summer hot spots on the coasts to spend the week doing too much sunning and drinking. It’s a day for sucking it up and not complaining about the traffic. For me, it’s… Read more →

Ladies who lunch

I feel like I’m dressed as one of those “ladies who lunch.” The leisure set. The country club squad. You know the type, right? I would love to be one IRL TBH 😉 I wouldn’t mind going full glam for lunch and martinis with my friends! I collected all the items for my look via a virtual crisscross of the… 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 →

Close cut

I sort of fell in love with this dress because of its close cut, just body skimming leather. In fact, it’s one of two dresses from new-to-me creators that I picked up at Tres Chic earlier this week – an event I usually find at least 1-2 treasures at. The vendor ad was clearly an homage to KKW in all… Read more →

Around the way girl

Yes, yes, it’s another “wow, I love this skin” post. But I do, so it is. This is Nova from OVH & Co, which comes in three dark tones. Mine is NC35, the middle shade. The applier is priced under $1000L and includes body appliers for three bodies. If you are a fan of the beautiful dark skins from Milan,… Read more →

Made Very Merry

I most definitely made very merry over the Christmas holiday, and hope you did too. We actually had a real life white Christmas here in Boston. Illusive and often wished for, in reality it was a pain to get around in! But still, it looks beautiful now that Christmas is behind us. I am back to work IRL today but… Read more →

Precious Metals

My first of two precious metals is a dress I took a chance on from a designer I wasn’t familiar with and have never blogged before. Safira offers the “Lucie” dress, which comes fitted for Slink and Maitreya, and includes a lace and an opaque version, in a wide-range of colors. I like an oblique cut IRL and I love… Read more →

I love a good sale

I love a good sale. And I wait for months and months for really good ones at my favorite sites or stores offline. Right now IRL I am stocking up at net-a-porte’s seasonal sale and in Second Life, I’m stocking up at Rowne. I think the sale probably ends today (!!) but it’s worth a stop over if you have… Read more →

Nantucket Reds

I am just back from a long week of travel and am about to get on the road once again – but this time, to Nantucket and just for an overnight. On a beautiful spring day I have my Nantucket Reds on IRL but I didn’t have quite the right color in SL. So, I put on the closest I… Read more →

Back to Basics

Going a little bit back to basics today. Jeans, light spring trench and the one thing that makes anyone feel amazing – new shoes! I am wearing several “new to me” brands that I have never tried before, and I particularly like the heels from Noir. Such a good price for a 12-color HUD. And while I like the coat… Read more →

It’s love, actually

You may note that I have on the same hair as I did in my last blog. The reason? It’s love, actually. Thank you, Burley, for a hair that I wish to wear not just once, in one color, but in every color and variation on the styling HUD. Hallelujah! You’ll also note a new coat and sweatshirt/blouse option from… Read more →

The List of What Was…

What a difference a year makes! Another year nearly came and went without the list of what was, but luckily I made it just in the nick of time. Here’s my short, opinionated take on things I loved and things I could do without in the New Year Some of my most favorite things from 2016 in SL Milan appliers… Read more →

My Favorite Kind of Frost

My favorite kind of frost nips at my nose and makes my cheeks rosy, but stays far away from my toes thank you very much. I loved all these new appliers for their fair, rosy glows – almost tinged with frost. What’s new in appliers? So much new in the overflowing world of Second Life appliers. You would think that… Read more →

Hello, Holidays

This week kicks off another year of making merry, beginning here in the US with Thanksgiving tomorrow. I am already working on my holiday wardrobe IRL and noting how much easier it is in SL! I am wearing a new applier by Milan for fiore, shown on three different head shapes. I will just say that Milan has quickly become… Read more →

Elaborate Embellishments: A Bag Worth Buying

I can remember a time when I didn’t put a lot of thought into using bags for my blogs in Second Life. This was back in the days long before mesh, hell, before anything other than carrying what were essentially shoe boxes on your arm. No really. It’s so nice to be able to not just blog, but regularly actually… Read more →
