Play Like A Cat – The Cliff The Cat Memorial Sale

Cliff The Plurking Cat was an Icon around our plurk timelines. Last year, prior to and after Cajsa’s surgeries, she’d fall asleep and Cliff would keep us entertained for hours posting updates about her. He’d tell us ATGUIASIGOHA GIOAIG and sometimes AETOIUBIVNRTINH and occasionally BNIOEFNAODGIAIOG.

His notes would be met with responses of “HI CLIFF!” and eventually, if it went on long enough, I’d have to call her just to make sure Cliff wasn’t doing his own version of Timmy Fell Down the Well.

When Cajsa announced that our beloved Cliff was going to have to leave us, due to illness, several of her friends wanted to do something special to remember Cliff. We came up with the idea of having a very small friends  sale to benefit the Oregon Humane Society.

So first, we contacted them to make sure it would be ok to collect money in their name. Btw – Christine G = Kesseret Steeplechase if you didn’t know. With their permission, a very few of us are throwing a special sale with 100% of the proceeds benefitting the Oregon Human Society. More info can be found here. Continue reading

Lazuri at Accessory Fair

Lazuri_006

There’s something so summery and fun about a shift dress and the ones at Coco are amazing. This Red Art Print version is fun and vibrant. The picture print is so whimsical and then adding the big flowers, you end up with something that makes me smile.

Pretty on the Prairie

I came by this gorgeous dress by Azul and thought… such a contrast in the dress itself, leather and layers and layers of flouncy chiffon… deserved a contrasting scene to shoot it in…. so I chose the Mother Road.

Azul 1

This dress is everything I am… feminine and beautiful, yet edgy and tough. I put it on and didn’t want to take it off…. and haven’t … for three days… (I think I need to send it to the dry cleaners now).

The lacing on the back of the dress is exquisitely done, every grommet perfectly placed. The flowing skirt is available as a cocktail length as shown or ball gown.

Azul 2

 

You CAN rez at this location, but only in the landing zone and then sit on what you rez and “ride” it out. It has some awesome roads for bike riding.

Go Back to the Accessory Fair! Now!

Indy & Co Farouk_001

If you have already gone to the Accessory Fair and think you have seen it all, you haven’t. Indy & Co. just released Indyra Seigo’s contribution to the Accessory Fair as she was ill. You are probably more familiar with her clothing for Indyra Originals, but she also has a shoe line called Coquette Noir and the jewelry line called Indy & Co. The Farouk Necklace and Earrings are a bold addition to the many Egyptian-inspired pieces at the Accessory Fair and make an elegant transition from ancient to modern fashion.

I will be showing you several pieces in this post, so I wanted a perfect dress to highlight jewelry. I chose the Rosalie gown from Miao as it’s a perfect foil for jewelry with v-neckline and classic shape. It has a modern touch with a wide beaded waistband. Coming with a sculpt or flexi-skirt it allows you the option of the movement of flexi or the photographic charms of sculpts.

Week 26 – Tangerine

Tangerine, she is all they claim
With her eyes of night and lips as bright as flame
Tangerine, when she dances by, senoritas stare and caballeros sigh
And I’ve seen toasts to Tangerine
Raised in every bar across the Argentine
Yes, she has them all on the run, but her heart belongs to just one
Her heart belongs to Tangerine
Tangerine, she is all they say
With mascara’d eye and chapeaux by Dache.
Tangerine, with her lips of flame
If the color keeps, Louis Philippe’s to blame.
And I’ve seen clothes on Tangerine
Where the label says “From Macy’s Mezzanine”.
Yes, she’s got the guys in a whirl, but she’s only fooling one girl
She’s only fooling Tangerine!

Well… the dress isn’t from Macy’s its from .salt and I don’t think i’m fooling anyone… but ya never know… 🙂
