Bandana Day 2010

sep16_006.jpg

It’s Bandana Day – when we remove our hair and don bandanas in a show of solidarity for the many people who lose their hair during chemotherapy. If you have not got a bandana, pop over to Hair Fair and pick up one of the many innovative and fun bandanas created to raise funds for Wigs For Kids, the charity for which Hair Fair is raising funds.

Bandana Day 2010: Dedicated to QXI Gears

posted by Gidge Uriza

My Bandana Day post today is dedicated to my beloved friend QXI Gears who has just walked the path of chemo and radiation, hopefully for the last time. I do not see her enough or talk to her enough, but I love her dearly and think of her often.

Which isn’t enough.

Beauty isn’t on the outside. And it doesn’t reside in our hair.

Bandana Day 2010 is here to remind us.

Style Notes:

  • Skin – PXL Creations Efe
  • Bandana – From Whimsy Winx – Down by the River – For Bandana Day 2010
  • Scarf and Top – Zeery

In the Subway Take Two

Another great jacket and pants set featured at Modavia Fashion Week comes from Shai Delacroix of Casa del Shai. It’s the Vixen Knit Kimono with Leopard Print pants. I really love the texturing on this outfit. In fact, I oohed and aahed like an idiot while watching it come down the runway at the show.

I shot this again at the Subway Station that Urban Decay sells. This is in the front part of the station before the turnstiles that lead to the tunnel.

Paper Couture Is Srss Fashn:Special Guest Gabe Bookmite

posted by Gidge Uriza

It was kismet, fate, meant-to-be and fortune all rolled up into a nice little ball of coincidence.

I had noted a plurk announcing that Paper Couture had released their fall collection for sale just moments before I logged in that day, so thought “What the hell” and ported over. The place was crampacked with A-listers, some of whom were naked for some unknown reason (my TPV seems to leave people naked a long time for me, so OHAI I’ve seen a lot of you naked lately). I waded through the sea of matte grey individuals for a spot in the room and then began the slow process of camming about. Continue reading

In the Subway Station

The thing about subways is that they are the ultimate crossroads of life where you will see any and all kinds of people – and all kinds of fashion from the dressed down to the dressed up. I am certainly dressed up with this fab pantset from The Niven Collection. It’s named L U X E and it’s certainly luxe in look and feel. I saw the collection at Modavia Fashion week and really fell in love with many of the pants sets in Scarlett Niven’s collection.

Subways are fabulous places for people-watching if you’re not in a hurry yourself. Sadly, there’s no crowd of people to watch at the subway at Urban Decay. Incidentally, Urban Decay sells this subway station if you want to buy it to rez on your own sim.

A Touch of Color

sep11_004.jpg

One of my favorite finds at Modavia Fashion Week was this lovely mostly black and white floral print dress from Anubis Style. I say mostly black and white because the special touch that really enchanted me were the occasional colored flowers sprinkled in among the black and white ones.
