…DRAW !

...DRAW

I realized after I edited that this pose looks like I’m about to have a shootout.

This town ain’t big enough for the both of us, pardner.

Fitting as I chose the western pattern of leggings to wear from Baiastice for this shoot. She just released beautiful leggings in a variety of colors and patterns. I was feeling fall colors when I got dressed though, and chose shades to reflect that. Continue reading

Morning After – Rouge Hangover – plus – KITTYCATS Announcement

Morning after Rouge_002

It’s been a Rouge filled weekend and this ensemble from SOMNIA, which is for sale at the event, was perfect for ambling around my house, hunting coffee and toast. The lingerie set is called Pinned Courtesan.

When I was in college, if you were PINNED, it was the step BEFORE you were engaged.  It was that moment when intentions are declared. More than going steady, it said “I AM GOING TO ASK YOU TO MARRY ME.” Getting pinned was fairly serious. Continue reading

I DO <3 Rouge

Vive la Rouge

I <3 Rouge_011

Starting today at 3 PM, there will be a weekend fundraising party to keep Rouge, that amazing red woman, alive and well and a destination spot on the grid. Rouge is not just the home sim for Codebastard Redgrave, or Codie, but it’s also a wonderful terraformed sculpture and a fabulous venue for events. Codie has been generous over the years, allowing folks to have parties and events at her club for no charge and over time a wonderful community of people have come to think of Rouge as a home away from home.

I <3 ROUGE

Many of those people are going to do their best to save Rouge with DJ’ed parties on Friday, Saturday and Sunday and by donating fun rouge items whose proceeds go to support Rouge. For example, the poses used in this post are all I poses by Status and all proceeds go to the support of Rouge sim. For complete details about the event, see here.

It’s FAIR to Fool The Eye

Fool The Eye_001

Trompe Loeil has released a gorgeous new bed – called Morning Light Cupboard that is cozy and makes me READY for cold weather, for the FAIR event. It comes in a variety of colors to suit your decorating needs, but I fell in love with the White Peony which has a very wintery window to look out of. Continue reading

It’s Only FAIR

FAIR - L'ACCESSOIRES

Purple Moon Meryl Gown in Red

I am wearing a gorgeous, sleek and sinuous gown from Purple Moon that I picked up a FAIR – the newest event from the Grande Dame of event-planning, Keira Seerose. After the massive and highly successful Vintage Fair, I swear I heard Keira say something about taking it easy and semi-retiring from event planning. However, the better you are at something, the harder it is to give it up. It must have been impossible for her since Vintage Fair ended in late August and here begins FAIR in late September. Backslider!!

Many Happy Returns

SolAria - L'Aph

Before I ever began blogging, I was an avid shopper. One of my favorite designers was Aphrodite Outlander and I had fatpacks of her Vintish pumps and her Sasy mules as well as many of her dresses. Early readers would find several posts with her clothing and shoes back in 2008 and 2009. I loved her bold, painterly use of color – as if Gauguin had decided to make clothes in Second Life®. Like many early creators, she closed her store. Luckily for us, though, her retirement turned out be a sabbatical instead. She’s launched a new store named L’Alph which she opened with several mesh shoes and dresses. I was so excited and am thrilled to be wearing one of her new dresses – Eva. She made it in twelve striking colors, but I chose the black one with the silver print. That gorgeous ring is from [glow] studio and can be found at FAIR – the new monthly design showcase from Chic Management. It opens at 4 PM today.

LIVING DEAD GIRL – or Disney Villain ?

Living Dead Girl_001

There are so many things going on, I can’t count them all. But I made time enough to make sure I had something perfect for Sunday morning Jazz at the Velvet with Cajsa as our DJ. It’s one of my favorite things to do, after breakfast, stroll over to the Velvet and just listen to whatever awesomeness Cajsa is spinning. Continue reading

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?

It’s Fine By Me if You Are Shaken, Not Stirred

winx_006

It’s the last day for MY ATTIC and I have to admit, my RL has been hectic and full of RL things that have kept me from being a proper shopper. So I ran over this morning before work and snatched up all the things as quick as you like. The theme this month is Shaken, Not Stirred, I think. I didn’t pay attention. It’s something like that. Regardless, it’s awesome. Continue reading
