Pondering

“Life is a great big canvas, and you should throw all the paint you can on it.”
(Danny Kaye)

I was pondering this quote while exploring a new to me sim, full of amazing spots, so I thought “I’ll take a picture!” and that’s what I did. I liked the shot so much that I decided to add some “canvas action” to it, whatever that means…LOL

Pondering

Then I thought (yeah…lots of pondering and thinking lately….someone stop me, please!) that my look of the day was so cute it would have been too selfish of me not to share the cuteness (…..) , soooo here I am, showing you what I’m wearing.

Here i am!

The awesome boho dress is from vive9, I absolutely dig that vintage style, it’s what I would wear in RL too.
The lace part is so delicate and romantic, but what really makes the difference is the belt which adds that particular touch of fashionista glamour.

Exploring in Style

I went over to Anarchy sim the other day to explore the glorious castle that was built there. It was so lovely on the outside, I decided to stay outdoors, especially since I had the cutest jacket in the metaverse to keep me warm. Do you think I exaggerate? I do not! Look at the peachy cuteness with the perfect little belted bow, the pleating buttons, the pouf of fur collar and the adorable piping. Those are design details that win!

Fashion That Excites

The runway show from SHI was one of the most exciting at Modavia Fashion Week – because the clothes were clothes we hadn’t seen before in Second Life. There were stunning pieces and one of my favorites was this marvelous top, jacket and shorts with leggings from SHI. Who knew shorts could be so elegant? And that jacket, that jacket is one that can be worn so many ways.

Funny Thing About My Inventory

Things keep disappearing and reappearing. Case in point, awesome cute jewelry from Caroline’s. Saw it in my offlines. Logging in, it didn’t deliver. Sad face. Forgot about it.

Searching for jewelry while styling – THERE IT IS! YAAAAAAY!! Continue reading →

If Beau Brummel Were the Designer for Star Wars

If Beau Brummel were the designer for Star Wars, I think Darth Vader might have had a cute little number like this and we would have been so much happier with the Empire. After all, if you must have evil overlords, they should be sharply dressed evil overlords.

No Frogs Were Harmed

When I saw the Dart Frog Fairy dress from Simply Fae I was so entranced by the Dart Frog fabric, but really didn’t want to wear it as a fairy. It makes an adorable fairy, but then I might have to steal children and I have my hands full with a cat. It was a simple matter to take off the wings and then by editing specific prims, I ate the leaves that were at the belt. This left me the fabulous fabric that I wanted without the fairy elements. I added this fabulous jacket from Bliss Couture’s new collection of fantastic furs.

Marvelous Night for a Moondance

Donna Flora's Dancing was made to be worn in the moonlight, its silk sheen reflecting the moon as you dance among the stars.

Well, it’s a marvelous night for a moondance
With the stars up above in your eyes
A fantabulous night to make romance
‘Neath the cover of October skies

And all the leaves on the trees are fallin’
To the sound of the breezes that blow
An’ I’m trying to please to the callin’
Of your heart strings that play soft and low

And all the nights magic seems to whisper and hush
And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush
Can I just have one more moondance with you, my love?
Can I just make some more romance with you, my love?

I Am Easily Amused

Seriously, I got far too much of a kick at wearing L’Abel at La Perla – an la-diculous la-incidence that more mature people would not even notice. Oc course, I am one of those people who can get fixate on a word and play with it, pulling it apart, removing the wheels and inspecting the undercarriage. I keep a dictionary for bathroom reading. My college offered a Linguistics major and though it was not my major, I spent many hours in the Word Room where my incipient love of words deepened into a life time love affair. L’Abel is a perfect store name for me, a neologism that references the creator’s name (Neferia Abel) and makes light fun of the emphasis on labels and branding in fashion marketing. It’s sly, clever and witty. Speaking of sly, clever and witty, what about that hat?

You never know what might happen or who you might meet

I had a little adventure shooting this picture. It began with a bit of SL wanderlust that had me wanting to find uncharted territories. I opened up the map and moved the slider so that I could distinguish individual sim terrain colors but not the sim details – about the size of my little fingernail. I was going map hopping. When I go map hopping, the only criteria I have for choosing a sim is that the surface is different from the default grass and sand. It can have darker grass and whiter sand and I am there, but the default is a clue that they didn’t put much thought into it. I found a few romantic garden spots with deep, lush dark green grass, but then I saw a sim that was red. Red! I had to go! And with the splashes of red in my outfit from Jador that I picked up at Modavia Fashion Week, this could be a great sim for shooting my outfit.
