Quick Look:Mimikri – 50L Weekend Madness

Leave a reply

posted by Gidge Uriza

Ok so I never did 50L Fridays or 60L Sundays or what have you, until this weekend. And now I’m broke so I hope you bastards are happy. 🙂 Kidding.

Let me first say – the only reason I stepped out for this event, 50L Fridays, were these TIGHTS from SH*T Happens. Ana had announced them on Plurk (hello creators – JOIN PLURK, it’s like fashion on Crack) and I knew if nothing else, I’d make time to pick up a set. 

While I was out carousing I got a notice about another event, WEEKEND MADNESS that some creators are participating in and saw Mimikri’s name on the notecard – HELLO!  I cannot believe this jacket and skirt was only L$50!

I added a black tank underneath so as not to be TOOO booberiffic and these gorgeous sleek boots from A-Bomb. If you haven’t been to A-Bomb lately – I have to say she makes some of the most fun stuffs around. Definitely worth a stop!

Digit Darkes Reminds Me WHY She Was My First Fashion Love

When I was new on the grid, I stumbled into a store that had clothes that weren’t cheap (to an unemployed girl they weren’t). But – they were spectacular. And they were vastly different and BETTER than anything my blingtard friends were sporting.  I immediately fell in love with the possibilities of fashion here on the grid.

That store was then called X3D – and you know it now as Digit Darkes.

I’m wearing a new release from her that she put on sale the other day – the Andreas Dress, in Copper. Like all of her work- it’s stunning, front AND back. Continue reading →

Sweater Dresses are Hot For Fall!

I was headed to THE VELVET to dance my heart out with Cajsa during our friend Maht’s Sunday set when this great sweater dress was dropped on me from Linc. It comes in an array of colors and they’ve done a nice job with the skirt prim.

It was a nice Sunday afternoon kind of dress to club in. Plus it’s wintery cozy – I love the big oversized collar on it.  It would also look great with slacks (expect to see it that way!)

So I let my hair down and danced the afternoon away with Cajsa.

I’m wearing the Fishnet Tights from BLOWPOP which are great with this sweater dress.  Annyka did an awesome job creating them. Continue reading →

Looking Idiosyncratic

1 Reply

Idiosyncrasy’s Justice is a delightful skin that makes me think of the women you see in a de Lempicka painting. I love the rich, bold lipstick and eyeshadow and the strong look of this skin. It is a fundraiser skin for CARE International at the Skin Expo and a wonderful addition to any inventory.  I wore it with the multi-color jewelry from Bliensen & Maitai because it suited the lovely halter top I picked up at Different Drummer – a new to me store.

It all started with the hair. This damned hair that Cajsa has been flaunting from Exile…….I had to have it. As  Hannibal Lector taught us – WHAT do we Covet? That which we see every day. So eventually I broke down and bought it because OMG it’s big and floofy and FANTASTIC. Continue reading →

Moondance

Leave a reply

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 falling
To the sound of the breezes that blow
And I’m trying to please to the calling
Of your heart-strings that play soft and low
You know the night’s magic
Seems to whisper and hush
And all the soft moonlight
Seems to shine in your blush…

Could I just have one more Moondance with you, my love?
Can I make some more romance with you, my love?

Oh, this dress is made for dancing in the moonlight. It catches the light and reflects the moonlight as you dance. Of course, when I wore it dancing I did take off the jacket, but this sure is the jacket to be seen in.

The new military styled swing jacket from HILARIOUS designer Kesseret Steeplechase is probably one of  THE must have jackets on the grid this fall. It’s a look that is hot in RL and her great styling made this one of the few things I’ve seen on the feed recently that made me say /DO WANT. Continue reading →

It Started with Sysy's Scarf

I gotta admit I’m not a big scarf wearer. I find that they so often floop out unnaturally and just look bizarre – or cut into my hair or some other thing that annoys.

So when I dropped on this lovely scarf from Sysy’s – I was immediately in love with the comfortable way it lays on your shoulders. So – I had to make an outfit around it, now didn’t I?

A crushed velvet jacket from Sn@tch and suede pants also from there seemed the perfect winter accompaniment to this lovely knitted scarf. Ok I might not be too warm……..but I look cute. Continue reading →
