You Had Me At Skittlepop Princess

posted by Gidge Uriza

Helena Stringer of the Stringer Mausoleum clearly knew that while I MIGHT be able to pass up Skittles, that skittles + princess + purple hair would end up being irresistible to me.  It was a must buy for me the second I saw it a preview of it and frankly I had FORGOTTEN it though- until I ran into it at the Hair Fair.

WOOOHOOO…….Purple Hair with Candy in it. Color me delighted. Continue reading

The Hair I Bought Bcse of GOGO!

posted by Gidge Uriza

First of all can I say that I clearly have a symbiotic relationship with House of London because I was getting dressed and wishing I had kind of a washed out retro-styled print tee to wear while out and about…………..

and POOF one was dropped on me as a group gift. Pink Outfitters is UNBELIEVABLY generous in dropping one color of their new releases from time to time. 

Now I really have to pop over there tonight and see WHAT ELSE is new!  Continue reading

Bloggity Blog – An It's Only Fashion PSA

posted by Gidge Uriza

It never fails to amaze me the really talented creators I will hear say things like “I don’t know how to get my things blogged” or “I’m too shy to send review  copies, what if they don’t like me?” And then there are the dramanistas stirring it up with the whining about who gets blogged and how often and how person X NEVER GETS BLOGGED WAAAAAAAAAAAH.

Seriously, when I see this – my thought is “Wow, you seem to have a lot of time on your hands, why don’t you help your friend out with some PR work promoting them to bloggers?”

But instead of being an asshat, I decided that what is second nature to me and the bloganista community (I just made that up. That’s my word – Bloganista – you may use it but you gotta pay me 10%) might be an alien adventure to those you not card carrying members of the Fashion Mafia. So I want to share with you how it SHOULD work and what you SHOULD do, if this is important to you – or to your friend who apparently can only have you speak for them. Continue reading

Casual Friday In Latex

posted by Gidge Uriza

The girly pink of this latex ensemble was of course the reason I plucked it up out of my inventory when I spied it. PINK LATEX? Are you kidding me?  Pink latex FTW!  I like the detail and styling even though this particular look might not normally be my style, I thought it had some whimsy to it. Continue reading

Quick Look:Boutique!

posted by Gidge Uriza

Tenshi Vielle’s Boutique is aptly named- you’ll find vendors all over including on the store. So mind that – the things you want to buy you might be standing on. I’ve chastised her though – I think some of her best things are hidden away upstairs. Silly rabbit.

This Victorian wrap shit and skirt are made with an irreverant irridescent hue and are casual but nicely tailored. Continue reading

Fear? No. Clothing? Yes!

posted by Gidge Uriza

I stumbled into Fear and Clothing who  was much blogged by Cajsa a while back, while wandering the the Sn@tch Sim. How I never ended up in there yet I can’t say but there I was, squeeing about these CUTE Geisha jeans.

Had to have them. HAD to have them. Continue reading

Taunting Carnies

posted by Gidge Uriza

What’s that? If I let you WHAT I can have a free ride on the Paratrooper?

The Carnie Cootch Ballerina set from Sn@tch brought back fond memories of small midwestern towns, their county fairs – and carnies who always offered us free rides in exchange for letting them molest us.

Well you know, they made offers that had a lot of explicit words and acts in them. However, the law puts a different label on most of them. And they always SEEMED like a high price to PAY just for a ride on the Tilt A Whirl. Continue reading

Feeding My Addiction

posted by Gidge Uriza

Addiction, a new gown at Sascha’s Designs, is another great formal gown by my favorite ballgown designer. With beads and gorgeous details this gown, as with almost all of Sascha’s works, comes witha  variety of skirt options so you can take it from the Cotillion where you dance with gentlemen of genteel natures to a modern formal event.
