BANDANA DAY 2013 !!! Drop The Hair To Show You Care!

There were so many beautiful bandanas this year that I struggled only buying four. I kept thinking, four is plenty. You don’t NEED more than four. But, they are so pretty, I rather love them this year. I might have more than four. Continue reading

I Traveled To Tokyo With Flowers In My Hair

I wanted to go shopping somewhere new, so I put in SHOPPING MALL into SEARCH.

After wading through a bunch of places that had keywords shopping, shopping mall, big shopping mall, best shopping mall, shopping mall of the shopping, etc etc etc I found someplace that looked interested, said it was anime themed and I didn’t have anything better to do so I popped over.

Things To Know Before You Visit LOVE DONNA FLORA

I went over last night to make another pass at shopping before the onslaught, and wanted to cover some important stuff with you to make your, and everyone elses, shopping experience better.

Like any event, looking cute isn’t going to be your most important focus. Go look cute on the last day. Right now, it’s a struggle to get in. There is a script meter that’s going to let you know if you have on too many scripts. You’ll get three warnings and then if you don’t pare it down, you’re going to get TPd. I know this, because last night in a bikini, I kept getting it. As I swore at Cajsa and muttered in RL about it being BS, I realized my glasses and earrings were scripted, and once I took them off the warning stopped. Continue reading

What Can I Do In Slink(y) Stilettos

It started off like a fashion blog might. I took some shots of a lovely cocktail ring from Maxi Gossamer. I was delighted that it sits next to my wedding ring – I LOVE wearing more than one ring.

Then I shot the shoes.

And I had this THOUGHT! I’d do a THEN AND NOW OF THE STILETTOS OF MY SL.

Because, the world has changed. I dug into my inventory with glee planning to show you how far we’d come when I realized – I’d deleted them in a rare inventory purge. Which is sad, because they were really something. I’d gotten them in a freebie box at this place that had tons of free or cheap furniture and you could game there. YEAH that’s how long ago I got them. I looked on MP, so great was my zeal to show them to you, but alas, the great MAGIC BOX SUNDERING of 2013 must have obliterated them all.

So, next idea.  Continue reading

The Next Must Have Bikini

Right about the time I think that no more bikinis ever need to be made someone comes along and makes the next one that is absolutely adorable. Anessa Stine has this one available at her shop DCNY and the best part for you is that it’s 50L because it’s part of FLF today! Continue reading

The Truth About Mornings

I wasn’t sure how to start my day after I’d taken the time to get dressed and do my nails. I knew I wanted breakfast but couldn’t decide on what I was willing to bother making.  I’m lazy in both worlds and I’m afraid we both skip breakfast more than we should.

Pixel Gidge decided that cake is breakfast too. It also gives me a chance to show you her new dining room set. Ria Bazar released the Toronto dining set and it’s larger than my old set which, although I loved it, was what I wanted. My linden house seems to be proportioned for back when furniture WAS so much larger and I always feel like huge portions of it are empty. It was about 500 lindens for the whole set, table rug, cabinet, lamp etc – so a STEAL. Continue reading

Why Does the Caged Bird Sing?

Gogo pointed me to a store I hadn’t perused in the past and I discovered a little corner chocked full of what is fun about our Second Lives – Fantasy. Songbird has all sorts of quirky fantasy items from the macabre to the festive.

I do like fantasy and this shop has eyes, tattoo layers and all sorts of things for adding a tweak of the ethereal to your avatar if you’re feeling saucy. Continue reading

So, I was slapping together my morning blog post today and I said, self, something is wrong – THIS IS DEMO HAIR! My friend Alice had sent me some hairs cuz we’re friends and I’m a blogger and she makes hair and it’s a symbiotic relationship and anyway don’t even bother her about free hair I can’t get you hair but anyway after I realized I had on a demo, I went to Plurk.

Dancing And Pool Parties

I logged in for Cajsa’s smooth jazz set on Sunday and she said “Put on your swimsuit.”

Handily, I had just picked a new one up at Fameshed from Valentina E.  I thought it was kind of adorable because it included a cover up so it was perfect.

The Velvet had added an outdoor pool of eclectic elegance so it was a relaxing morning of floating and dancing while we shook off our Sunday lethargy.

When I didn’t feel like swimming, the cover-up still provided a pool party appropriate look without my bootie hanging out. Continue reading

Damselfly Returns To My Shopping List

Everybody has that store, that store you USED to shop at. Damselfly was my GO TO for big old floofy “TEXAS PAGEANT HAIR” and it was awesome. Truly, I was a major fan and flocked over to pick up every release I could. While I’m positive by the amount of FLEXI one sees in ballrooms that big flowy hair still has it’s audience, in order to keep my Fashion Mafia card I had to move on to mesh.

And said fair thee well to Damselfly. Continue reading
