My fellow Americans, and Ameriphiles,
The 4th of July weekend is almost upon us.
In RL this means barbecues, family picnics, parties, cookouts, trips to the beach and the omnipresent fireworks displays.
IN SL this means all of the above – plus the REQUISITE fashion adjustments for the old Red White and Blue. Continue reading

When a Fashionista Gets Dressed…..


posted by Gidge Uriza
When a fashionista gets dressed
there are two possibilities.
She can slick back her hair with V05 and some give it some shakes for an unkempt style, appropriate for some dinner at The Hurricane Cafe.
Or
She can coif herself elegantly wearing a feminine style that speaks more of a night at Minnie’s .
If she reaches for the tube of V05 that’s that.
But, if she coifs herself elegantly then there are TWO possibilities. Continue reading
Halston Reborn – As a Frenchwoman


posted by Gidge Uriza
I slipped into Elemiah designs after seeing a cute babydoll dress on Freestyle and I wanted to see more. It’s possible that I have an unnatural affinity for the modern, feminine lines drawn by Halston back in the day – I had a bachelor uncle who was a huge fan – but I immediately saw a comparison in Elemiah’s designs with the late great designer.

The 7vanth Sign

posted by Gidge Uriza
I am notorious for buying cute clothes and then either forgetting about them for months OR for not being able to remember WHERE I bought them. I’m ashamed to admit I only learned a few months ago to check the clothes CREATOR and I could usually track them down. I don’t know why I never applied this skill to clothing – I KNEW it worked for objects. Who knows – I’m mostly blonde.
Not today obviously, but mostly. Continue reading
I Met You On Somebody's Island

“You Thought You Had Known Me Before
I brought you a crate of Papaya
It waited all night by your door……..”
– Steve Miller
Oh my god did he really just say he brought over some papaya trying to make time with the ladies?
After shooting for a million hours the other night, I slipped into a cute new dress and Cajsa immediately said “Let’s shoot this one.”
Sweet. Continue reading
