Modern Gypsy’s Cerulean Mist dress is a dancing nebula of color – so I had to go to the nebula dance floor at Little Kasiopaya to take my pictures. The blend of blue, purple and silver is a cerulean celestial delight.

I love ice blue, that wonderful color that seems to be deciding between blue, white and silver and never making up its mind. The ice blue of the Lani dress from Lelutka is just that perfect shade, holding itself in a state of perfect suspension between the three, never drifting off balance. Add to that perfect ice blue, the beautifully formed bodice and winging single sleeve that arches gracefully over the left shoulder and the lovely sculpted skirt and you have a very cool bit of chic.
Loving the dress color so much, I really wanted to emphasize it by shooting at the beautifully blue sim Noah’s Ark where nearly everything is blue. I also chose the Cheery Cyan windlight setting from Torley Linden to reinforce the blueness. Continue reading
I am wearing another of the wonderful new gowns from Micah Kanto’s recent collection for Modern Gypsy. Femme de Magnifica has a luscious sculpted skirt with a fabulous belt. It’s nearly nude beige and gold tones give it a subtly sexy look. After seeing Heaven Lake in a recent post by Randi Lenroy, I thought it might be a great setting to show off the dress.

I love how things just fall into place in SL sometimes. For example, I went to nostos:deer to shoot this outfit and came across a patch of dandelions and tall grass on my walk to the beach. Just last night, Tenshi Vielle sent a dandelion out to a group I am in, so it seemed like I had to stop and shoot this beautiful dandelion white dress from Lelutka there.

One of the final acts of my favorite Woody Allen movie – HANNAH AND HER SISTERS – is called LUCKY I RAN INTO YOU. It’s about two people who’ve known each other and fall in love despite the past. Making friends can be like that too.
I feel that way a lot about my best friend and blog partner, Cajsa. Continue reading
Modern Gypsy’s newest collection is full of interesting and avant garde designs. The Dovetta dress is, in my opinion, the most arresting – or the most likely to get you arrested since it doubles as a deadly weapon. In jest, I said it was a First Date dress, but then decided to explore the idea further – styling it for a First Date with an unknown quantity, giving it a hard-edged, remote styling. I added tintable leggings from Fashionably Dead and a belt from M.A.II.K.I in a bright cerise.
Luckily for this imaginary date and me, the prims detach for a more comfortable Second Date. I switched to a red belt from Lelutka and ditched the leggings.
I love the playful look of the Magnifico Plateau shoes. In particular, the blue ones with that beautiful shade of blue that reminds me of the Melmac dinnerware at my uncle’s cabin on Lake Kabetogama. I suppose associating shoes with dinnerware is a bit odd, but that dinnerware reminds me of family picnics, playing with cousins, tramping through the woods and hours of fun on the lake. Just about everyone had Melmac dinnerware at their lake cabins because that stuff was indestructible. You know, Mad Max and all the post-apocalyptic survivors may lack for a lot of niceties, but they would still have Melmac. Here I am enjoying some music while wearing a great top from Eldee and capris from artilleri.

Style Notes:
***Bold R Denotes a Review or Promotional Copy***
Yeah, it’s a shortie. I’m sleepy. Give me a break!
Two Roads Diverge at the entrance of the South Farthing park sim.
Two roads diverged in a primfilled wood
And sorry I could not travel both
Being on avatar, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
And waited for the rezzing of the undergrowth. Continue reading
No, the moon is not made out of green cheese, but if you go to Shadow Moon, the sky is. Well, green something anyway! I was wearing this audaciously fun outfit from The Black Canary and decided to check out Shadow Moon – the name of the place sounded so evocative of mystery and danger and illicit rendezvous in the darkness of the shadow of the moon.
Hah! Not so much. Still the bright whimsy of this cartoon goth world delighted my sense of humor. I could not resist.
As you can see, the Lament outfit from The Black Canary is perfect for a night in any goth world – be it in Toon Town or some more sinister realm. The cape is amazing, so are the collar and cuffs on the shirt and the amazing silver findings that detail the jacket. It’s a beautifully elegant suit that was a delight to wear.
