Merry Gidgemas

dec27_002

I decided to show you what I wore to Gidge’s party on Monday. It was a Christmas sweater party, but I ignored the ugly part in the ugly Christmas sweater instructions and wore this lovely Christmas sweater from artilleri. I was not alone. Three of us there wore it in green and one wore it in blue! This was a popular sweater. I paired it with the red mesh miniskirt released last week by mon tissu. My booties are 2 years old, from Redgrave. They had huge invisiprims, but I edited them into a nubbin and hid them inside my feet. I tried on a few alphas until I found one that worked. With that, they work as though they were made this year.

And here’s one of my Christmas presents from Gidge – Christmas earrings and a necklace from Frangipani Garden! The hair is a new release from Exile called Veronique.

Merry Christmas Vogel!

I think I have the best ex-boyfriends a girl could possibly want. One of my favorites is Vogel, or more officially Schrottvogel Wei. I met him long ago when I was looking for a custom-made surfboard and we have been friends ever since. Since you readers have been shy about volunteering as guest stylist, I invited him to show off his style. I know he has style since I have worn his bikinis a few times on this blog. Now, don’t forget, if you want to do a guest stylist shoot, IM Gidge or me.

He suggested artilleri for the shoot as a place that would fit his somewhat Rockabilly style. It was pure kismet that there happened to be a car in front that had the same flames as his shirt. That was just too perfect to pass by. Of course, the shirt is made by artilleri’s Antonia Marat, but there aren’t cars parked in fornt with the same print as all her other shirts. Besides, those Chucks have flames, too, and they are from Akeyo.

Seek and Ye Shall Find

Oct15_020

Seek and ye shall find;
knock and the door shall be open;
ask and it shall be given
and the love come a trickling down.

That was one of my favorite childhood songs was from a decrepit album of my sisters called The Womenfolk. Don’t worry if you’ve never heard of them. No one’s heard of them. Incredibly, though, I found the song by them on YouTube. It was an old album and it appealed to my five year old sensibilities with some nonsense songs sprinkled in with traditional folk songs. I played it over and over until it was worn out. Despite its religious theme, it still appeals to me and when I find myself feeling impatient and frustrated, I will still sing the chorus to remind myself that patience is virtue worth holding onto hard and fast. Certainly a good theme song for hunts.

Since it was from a hunt, I decided to shoot at Hide and Seek. It’s a lovely sim, though I had to turn my music off because every step seems to put me in a different music parcel. It was very weird musically.

A few years ago, Gidge and I did a couple hunts of 100 stores or so. Funny thing, though, I never unpacked the items and they sat in a folder in my inventory reminding me that hunts are not for me. There’s a couple reasons for this. Once the hunt is over, I don’t want to blog the items since I try to avoid blogging things that readers won’t be able to get for themselves if they wish. I make a few exceptions for some gloves and leggings that I will hold onto forever. People don’t just read today’s post, but half the views each day are from posts from long ago and far away. The second reason is that events are so very well covered in the blogs. There are several blogs that focus heavily on sales and hunts such as The SL Circadian, Seraphim,  and Shopping Cart Disco. But then I saw this jacket!

An Investment Dress

sep25_004

The Shimmy Dress from ICING is one of those wardrobe foundations that you can build a wardrobe around. It has all the hallmarks of an investment dress – a classic silhouette that is never out of style, multiple layer options to coordinate with other clothing, colors that work in every season, and quality construction that is deceptively simple. These are qualities that make a dress take on a different mood as its styled with different accessories.

This is the dress for the quick change artist in you. In this post I will show you how easy it is to take a good investment dress and make several looks from high fashion to funky bohemian to vintage classic, all with a few accessory changes. Don’t for a second think this was all, either. I had several other possibilities in mind, but thought five was more than enough to make the case for this investment dress.  There are many investment pieces out there. While not making it an official “challenge” I would love to see what ideas you have for investment purchases that build a versatile wardrobe.

My friend Jori Watler was in a bit of a snit the other day (which is a whole other topic and best left out) and anyway, I’m the sort of friend who firmly believes that if you are in a snit, there is surely something horrible on Marketplace I could send you to cure you of this malady.
