Mon Tissu Contest

Hi!

Tonight is the deadline for the Mon Tissu Blogger Search contest, and I couldn’t resist giving it a go.  It’s my favorite store on the grid, a virtual Anthropologie!  How can you not love that?  The contest ends at midnight, so you still have time to throw your hat into the ring.  There are some amazing entries!  Even if you don’t enter, take a moment to look at the beautiful work everyone has done in the Mon Tissu Flickr group.

These were already posted on my Flickr account, but I wanted to post the looks here.  It’s not often I venture out to do “on-location” shots, so I thought I’d share the lovely locations in case you’re looking for a new spot for photos!

Gacha Mania

Happy weekend!  The awesome gacha event The Arcade opened, and it seems most of SL (myself included) has gone gacha crazy!  Crazy in the best way, of course.  There are so many amazing items at the event, who could blame us?

The event is being covered everywhere, so I’m not posting anything detailed tonight.  Just a quick shot of some of my favorite scores!

Color Me Impressed

Can we take a moment to talk about colored jeans?

Color Me Impressed (01)

I love them!  I’m so excited that colored jeans have made a comeback in the real world.  I’m a child of the 80s who spent her youth decked-out in an array of colored pants (or everything, really), from neon to jewel tones.  I think that’s why I still love color so much today.

Luckily for me (and you!), there have been plenty of excellent colored jeans released in SL recently.

Babydoll

Babydoll dresses.  They’re hit or miss.

This one is definitely a hit.   Maylee Oh of The Secret Store just released this cutie in 7 different color options.   This one is my favorite; I just love mixing up romantic lace with something a bit edgy.   If it were possible to successfully layer mesh pieces, I’d pair this with a fun black leather jacket.  Since I couldn’t, I opted for black tights and heels to highlight the collar of the dress.

Tickled Pink

I love pink hair!

tickled pink

Sometime in my freshman year of high school, I decided I wanted pink hair.  I thought it would look pretty good with my combat boots.  Being a dark brunette, though, I never got the courage to fully bleach my hair so the pink could actually show up.  To this day, I still wish I could do it; the closest I ever came was pink streaks a few years ago.  And though my high school dreams were of hot pink hair, these days I wish I could do a lovely pastel.  Sigh.

But hey.  Isn’t it great we have Second Life, where we can have any hair color we want without all the bleach damage?

With that in mind,  I want to share a few of my favorite pink shades in SL.
