Nothing in the fashion world makes me go MEH faster than a tank top. Oh you made a tank top? Yawn….
Unless it’s cute.
Which I why I like to be the first to show off CUTE tanks when someone takes the time to make something nice, there are just too many really average boring pieces out there for you to MISS something pretty.
Cool Beans has released the Demure Rose tank tops in pretty tones that are perfect for fall. Continue reading
1963 was a seminal year in American life. It was the year of the Kennedy Assassination – a moment like 9/11 where everyone alive then can tell you what they were doing at the moment they learned of it. It was also the year that brought us Doctor Who and the release of the first Beatles album. 1963 will be celebrated in all its glory tonight at theRock per Annum event at the Velvet. Exploring the development of rock from 1960 to 2012, each week focuses on the music of just one year. It’s been a fascinating process so far because the music for each year is so much fuller and more varied than one expects.
I was getting read to shoot this outfit when Gidge and I went shopping. After a bit of a spree, we headed over to Collabor88. Now I thought I had put together a pretty good outfit, but I had that affirmed with a massive compliment when out of the blue a total stranger asked if she could shoot my look for her blog. Of course I said yes! I still hadn’t settled on earrings yet, but I was close to done.
BFour years ago, I went to ND/MD Skins and Shapes where I purchased an Angelina Jolie look-alike skin and shape and a Marilyn Monroe look-alike shape in preparation for Halloween parties. I was a noob and I was thrilled that the store owner was in the store. She chatted with me and tp’ed in her partner Moonlay Laval to say hi as well. Alea gave me lots of advice on how to put together my Tomb Raider look and taught me one of the most valuable skills I ever learned in Second Life – tinting hair to get the color I want. I still do it all the time and often think of her when I am fussing with my hair. She invited me to be her friend and became the very first creator on my friend’s list. If you remember you noob days, you know how over the moon I was.
That’s all I could think of while tooling around Route 666 on my pink chopper that Cajsa got me for my birthday. Continue reading
There’s a new sim that calls out to the inner child to come and play. I ran over there to shoot some pictures and was entranced by the whimsical creatures and definitely wanted to wear something that was playful and fun. I remembered this outfit from Magoa at Modavia Fashion Week. Magoa’s Fashion Week collection is not for the faint of heart. There’s a dress made of eyeballs! But it is the collection for our inner Gaga and something tells me this sim is as well.
Intrepid explorer that I am, I fell in the lake where I found floating tomato slices among the fish. I certainly fit in with my bright and cheerful skirt and top and the Ferris wheel headpiece.
I may have mentioned this already, but there’s a sale at Truth District with fabulous stores selling fabulous clothes for a fabulous 50% off. You have to be a Truth District Update Group member to go to the sim and membership is L250, which the savings on two purchases will offset. I have seen many of the sales items and Gidge and I have shown some of them off. There really are some great finds – among them this fabulous off-the-shoulder dress from DCNY. I love the soft teal and the romantic print and the shoulder and arm prims hang together beautifully in most poses, so long as I don’t frantically wave my hand in class like Alex Dunphy.
with Miss Luci and her Posse…. adorable tonight in DUCKNIPPLE! I giggle every time I say ducknipple….. These dresses, called Cocktail, come in several colorful prints, three of them shown here, and are just the cutest things.
want more?
In just two hours (Noon SLT), the Truth Sim’s big sales event begins when many of the District’s fabulous stores will be selling selected items at 50% off. I took a look at the store directory and think it’s going to be a shopaganza this weekend. The thing is, this sales is for Truth District Update Group members only. You must join the group in order to go and you can join for free until Noon SLT when the event opens to the public. After that, there will be a fee, so join by noon!
Truth District is bringing it this weekend and I’d like to say THANK YOU to Truth Hawks for recognizing my birthday by having a huge sale. It’s SUPER considerate of you, I’ve always known you are lovely. I’m writing you a thank you note RIGHT NOW! Continue reading
