Cheongsam for the Chinese New Year

posted by Gidge Uriza

One of my favorite styles, the Cheongsam is one of the many great buys at the big Pixel Dolls L$50 sale. Everything in one room is only fifty lindens and it’s all an amazing steal. I’ve been hard pressed to pick out specific items vs. just buying them all. Continue reading

Ornamental Cleavage

posted by Gidge Uriza

Sometimes I don’t realize how smexy a shirt is. For instance, I bought this one solely to match this skin I picked up and thought, “this’ll be a great contrast.”

Ahem. Well, it’s obviously a beautiful sweater, rich in color great details.

And MAN is it boobariffic. Continue reading

IT TOOK ME ONE YEAR!

posted by Gidge Uriza

I have stalked this bathing suit since it went into the lucky chair at Coconut Ice, for oh, Say A YEAR.  My husband came to SL and promptly won it right off the bat one day while shopping with me.

Here you see Silo – flaunting his new bikini a year ago, at a party with threw on Vicious Island.

So, I was a little bitter, I gotta admit. I mean, it wasn’t even TRANS! GRRRRR. Continue reading

Sunday Afternoon

posted by Gidge Uriza

Once you kick off those church shoes and make your Sunday plans, you want to be comfy. So what are you doing today? A cookout? Going to drink some beer and play trivia? Cruising the grid with your girls looking for something you can’t live without?

I pillaged my inventory trying to remember what BESIDES Sari’s I had picked up at the Yak & Yeti extravaganza (I haven’t been in a while – everything might still be free, I dunno). Continue reading

Sunday Morning

posted by Gidge Uriza

I have been extreme remiss in visiting my friends the Kungles new Sim. I sent a present but between being sick and kids being sick and then being busy blah blah blah blah I never got over there. Which is lame of me, as they are some of my favorite designers in SL.

So when I went wandering around, taking in their lovely new mainstore, I was excited to take in all the news, and maybe the not-so news things I hadn’t noticed before. Continue reading

Candy and Cigarettes

posted by Gidge Uriza

It all started with a blogpost on Freestyle about a free snowboard! I was bored, had no one to hang out with and though, Hey – I’ll go get that snowboard. That’d be a hoot.

Except I couldn’t FIND it. I round RAY SKIN just fine, and I found a lot of cute freebie clothes (worn) but no snow board. Now, as will happen when there is a post from Freestyle, it was kind a crackalackin busy with freebie hunters and folks checking out a store new to them. So it was lagarrific and hard to get around. There probably WAS a snowboard and I couldn’t FIND It. Continue reading

A Fashion Blogger's Bedroom

posted by Gidge Uriza

You would imagine, that when one has a RL husband who spends hours and hours retexturing your new SL home, and he spent hours arranging and picking out furniture to make your home a place you can be proud to bring your pixel friends – that you’d be careful with your prims.

You’d mind them, make sure that you can always have plenty available, wouldn’t you?

Of course, if you did that – you wouldn’t be THIS Fashion Blogger. Continue reading

For The Inauguration,I Turned to The Italians

posted by Gidge Uriza

Cajsa said she was going to wear blue, so I felt obliged to wear red. I had this snappy little new red dress from Clio’s Pret a Porter so figured I was SET! Of course then, Cajsa got all patriotic and emotional in real life and sat watching all the festivities all over again on TV and didn’t log into our pixel world.

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

But at least I was cute. Continue reading

Presumably, The Rose WITH Thorns

posted by Gidge Uriza

King Henry the 8th took his 5th wife, Catherine Howard, straight from his 4th wife’s wedding party. He called her the ROSE WITHOUT THORNS. Presumably, a slam on his original Tudor Rose – Anne Boleyn – the raven haired beauty he had proclaimed to the world was his own true love.

Yet, Rose with or without Thorns – he beheaded them both. Continue reading

Back to Work Ladies!

posted by Gidge Uriza

It’s Monday Morning ladies and that means Gidge is back to work. So I thought I’d show you something lovely and fun that I was sent from Dani’s Fine Fashions.

This is the Retro Plaid outfit and is a complete outfit except for shoes (which is ok cuz unless you are Digit Darkes I have yet to find anyone who gives out REALLY GOOD SHOES with their complete outfits). Continue reading
