It's Got To Be The Shoes…

I had to have the scale from Artilleri’s Fifty Linden Friday offering, because I’ve got a bathroom for the first time ever. So it just seemed like kismet that this item come along for my bathroom decor.

I am fairly sure, however, that it’s the shoes weighing me down today. I can’t weigh this much.

I’m wearing new heels from Kalnins and a slinky new dress from Haut.Monde. I was in a sleek kind of mood. Continue reading

The Sun & Stars in a Bottle

nov04_006

Saigye Lotus didn’t just put the world in a bottle with the necklace I highlighted yesterday. She gathered the sun and stars and bottled up their fire as well. This is another necklace with the amazing detail anyone with a passing acquaintance with Balderdash jewelry has come to expect. I am wearing it with a lovely striped sweater from Baiastice.

It’s a bit chilly, though, and luckily Baiastice released a poncho just this week. I tossed it on over my sweater and I am as snug as a bug in a rug. Probably more snug, since bugs in rugs can still get stepped on or zapped by insecticides.

Wednesday

I’m not a huge Halloween fan, first of all (RL reason) because it does not belong to the Italian tradition, so I don’t “feel” it at all, and then (SL reason) because, according to my taste, it brings too much orangeness into SL fashion. Also, I don’t need Halloween to wear a costume or to choose a dark/horror/spooky look in SL: I do that anytime I feel like it 😀
Halloween parties are cool, anyway, and it’s a shame I missed the one organized by Gidge and Cajsa: different time zones, you know^^

Ok, I don’t love Halloween, but I love the fact that lots of designers normally release new stuff (and gifts!) for this time of the year, thanks God not only orange and not only Halloween related, and one of those releases immediately caught my attention, since the moment I received the notecard.
I’m talking about the Wednesday outfit from SeVered GarDeN, inspired to Wednesday Addams (also “Hand” is part of the pack, even though you won’t see it in my pictures) and so damn awesome.

My doll

I have a thing for SeVered GarDeN: Berta Avro and BUBI Bolissima create some of the most interesting, beautiful, original, and high quality clothing I ever seen. It’s a mix of fantasy and modern fashion, it’s something really unique in the SL fashion universe and the Wednesday outfit is an example of what I’m saying.
Shoes, socks, the doll and, as I said, “Hand” are part of the outfit and all the sculpted prims come with a resize menu.
And, guess what? The price is really really really affordable, like everything at SeVered GarDeN.

Fifty of Fifty

Eclectic Wingtips of Eclectic Apparel is having a super sale, putting half of her store on sale at half off. Yes, 50% of the items are 50% off.  Even better, there are a few 1 linden items such as this gorgeous little number to sweeten the pot. What I like best about Eclectic Apparel is that there are great basics, separates that can be combined and mixed and matched and build and extend your wardrobe. This is a stocker-upper sale.

The World in a Bottle

Nov02_009

One of the reasons I love the jewelry at Balderdash so much is that when you zoom in on it, you can find whole new worlds. Take this Bit of Earth Necklace which is lovely and attractive from a distance, but when seen in detail, reveals so much more than you would suppose. Whether you’re zooming in on a pair of earrings and finding some words from a book or tiny shamrocks, the true revelation of Balderdash jewelry is in the fine details. I showed this to a real life friend who was in awe and perhaps, for the first time, really understood the appeal of Second Life fashions. I wore the jewelry with what seems a relatively casual, everyday outfit. Which is what I thought myself, until…

If I Could Walk On Water

I had one of those great mornings on the grid today. I completed a set and got it out for sale, talked to my friend Dove and found this BITCHING dress from THE ICING which desperately needed me to wear it.

I forgot I had this, how is that possible? Have I worn it before? Honestly, I don’t even care. If I previously blogged this dress it’s so flawless it deserves a second run. Continue reading
