Gidge’s Fast Five: May the Fourth Be With You Edition

GidgeFast Five We are getting over three inches of rain today where I am in RL. THREE INCHES. I am lucky that I live high on a ridge, those zombies down in Atlanta will all drown or float away and all this walking dead business will be solved. But until then, I thought I’d bring you a fast five.

1. Gothic Maid Doll: I love this first picture. Does she have an egg hanging out of her mouth? Seriously, I was torn between giggling and ooooing because of the gorgeous tones of this photo. It’s a great costumed or role play look. I’m not sure WHAT you’d role play in it but that’s your business. Continue reading

Cultural Appropriation – It’s Whats For Dinner !

Cultural Appropriation Is For Dinner

 

I could not resist the Mexican Fiesta at Rassassy last Sunday on the Lazy Sunday sale day. It was ONLY 75L for a lovely meal to cater at my house and I LOVE PIXEL FOOD DON’T JUDGE ME.

But as I laid my table and invited over my guests, I realized, that most misrepresented of Mexican holidays is upon us – Cinco de Mayo. Continue reading

Have a Seat Darling

Have A Seat

 

HANDverk has released a set of post modern moulded furniture that would be perfect for a vagrant pixel Auntie Mame to terrify suburbanites with.

I’m showing off my favorite piece in the collection right now, a sofa nee chaise fitted with multiple sits and easy adjusting to keep your arms out of the sides.

I will be showing off the entire set soon but I wanted to pair this piece with the avant garde complete outfit I picked up at Black Haus White Market on Lazy Sunday. Lazy Sunday still one of my fave sale days, thanks for keeping it going.

My nails are SO two days ago, from FLAIR where you can get more nails than you can shake a stick at, to color your SLINK mesh nails. I always wear the ones marked ANIM and they move perfectly with my poses. It’s magic.

The hair isn’t a new release but it’s from Amacci, whom I consider to be a staple of quality releases.  You should pop over there if you haven’t been in a while.

Busy Wednesday is Busy.

Be beautiful my loves!

Gidge Is Wearing:
Dress and Skin, leggins and boots: *Black Haus White Market* – Avante Garde
Lashes: Amacci – Eyelash Tattoo 5
Amacci – Eyelash Tattoo 1

A Lazy and Rainy Sunday Indeed

Cuppa Coffee and a Snack? Sure

A:S:S (that’s Another Shirt Store) has released a set of their Lazy A:S:S pajamas for Lazy Sunday in special colors and if it’s rainy and cloudy in your second existence as it is in mine, you’ll be glad of them to snuggle up into.

Is that coffee cannister right? I don’t even know. Every time I rezz it that’s all it does. Shrug. Seems wrong. Continue reading

The Trouble With Troobles (Yeah I Went There)

New Pets from Amazon and the Lab

The Lab did a partnership with Amazon.com  a few weeks ago for a “free pet” family – the Troobles. It was free – you just had to click buy and it was delivered magically to your inventory.

I do like pets. 🙂 Continue reading

The Dressing Room Of The Fifty Foot Woman

The Dressing Room of The Fifty Foot Woman

 

I must’ve taken about 20 pics in the new WinxBox for this month’s My Attic event. It’s one of my favorite sales as they do such a nice job of keeping it fresh.

W.Winx and Flair collaborate most months to create that mainstay of blogger crack – the pose prop box. This month’s themed event is CHANGES and so they’ve released this CHIC dressing room pose prop.

It’s so much fun I couldn’t help but be a bit silly. Continue reading

Gidge’s Fast Five: April 25 – Avatars Doing Things and Going Places

GidgeFast Five
Today I am focusing on avatars doing my favorite things – being out in the grid and living their second existence.

 

1. Owlfit 336: Despite her pics being bigger than they are supposed to be for the feed – they are cute pics so I forgive her.  I love the sassy look, a cute casual out and about on a hot day styling. I want to go to this cafe and order pie now. Continue reading

Fantasy Fair Is More Than That

Retro Is My Fantasy

Second Life is a fantasy world for us all. I’m perfectly thin, I’m blonde again (the color of my childhood hair). My house is never messy and and I can simply log out when I’m annoyed.

It’s a shame then that awesome events like Fantasy Faire sometimes get looked at like “oh if I don’t have elf ears or cloven hooves it’s not for me.” Continue reading
