Drew is one of the exclusives released by Purple Moon at Fashion For Life. It is beautifully made in every detail from the sumptuous embroidery to the black piping on the bodice that feeds into the spaghetti straps. The execution on this dress is flawless. Continue reading
If you enjoy the music of that era, then you should join us at the Jersey Garage for Psychedelic Wednesday’s 7-9 PM SLT. Every week, we dress up in clothing from the era and listen to the seldom heard tunes that filled our teen years! Its a blast and with that in mind I’m constantly on the look out for something that I can wear each week.
Wanna see what I wore? Keep reading….

Do you sometimes want a gown so rich and full and extravagant you feel as though you are the figurehead on some elegant ship of state? If so, the ‘Heartache’ gown by Tres Beau at Fashion for Life. With rich saturated colors and a gorgeous corset, it demands some dramatic photos. I ended up making a smaller pinpoint projector texture that I will add to the bottom of this post so you can download it for your own photos. Continue reading
I was browsing my inventory this morning, searching for something to wear with my earrings from Bliesen + Maitai for FASHION FOR LIFE and was reminded, due to my lack of inventory maintenance, of how many years I’ve attended Fashion for Life. It’s not something that’s ever been top of mind, like COLLABOR88, Fifty Linden Friday, or The Arcade, where I feel a RUSH and desire to go. More like, it’s something I should go to as a member of our community to support the spirit of charity and helping support American Cancer Society.
I’m lucky, genetically. There is no cancer in my family. It doesn’t mean there won’t ever be, it just means I’m not predisposed. My genes are on file at Columbia, because of different family medical issues, and I know for a fact that I carry none of the KNOWN genetic markers for any type of cancer. Continue reading
…makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind….
Love Seals and Croft and that song just felt like it fit this mood. Standing on the beach at Black Basalt Beach, a beautiful sim to just hang out or surf (or take pictures). This post is dedicated to the summer themed items at Collabor88, which just opened on June 8th.

I would have fit right in with Pete Seeger and the other folk music activists in this out fit from Spyralle – at Fashion For Life, I really love this long ponytail from EMO-tions a Fashion For Life exclusive.
Watching the efforts of the builders, designer and bloggers that are doing their utmost to make Fashion For Life a success, I think of the words of Pete Seeger’s wonderful song, One Man’s Hands.
One man’s hands can’t tear a prison down
Two men’s hands can’t tear a prison down
But if two and two and fifty make a million
We’ll see that day come round
We’ll see that day come round. Continue reading
Ok no I am not finishing that little poem.
I do have a magical boat that lets me levitate, however. I’m fairly impressed by that. You should be too. Well, in fact, I’d adjusted my sit to show my shoes better then rethought that and forgot to adjust back. I figure, if I acknowledge it, then I no one can sweat me for it. I always sort of wonder if people know they are floating, or that objects around them are floating when I see this. Time is the mind killer, we spend so much time doing this and that it’s easy to miss a little thing like levitation, amirite? Continue reading
The Naiades dress from [sYs] is all about the side boob. At least it promises side boobery, but if you wear the right size, it’s a promise unfulfilled.
This year’s Fashion For Life features a Passport Game that encourages visits to every sim. To play you pick up your passport at one of the Redemption Center’s located on each sim. Then you wander the sims, picking up a souvenir on each sim. The souvenirs are provided by the builders and fit into the themes of the sims they built. Each souvenir requires a 50L donation to Relay For Life. You can find the souvenirs in each sim’s Gacha area. All you have to do then is wear the items while wearing the HUD. Each item stamps your HUD. As you can see, I made an “outfit” out of mine, who knew a flower pot made such a lovely skirt?
Once your HUD has all 10 stamps, then you are ready to redeem your passport. Go to the redemption center to choose from the many prizes provided by creators and builders. You can only play the passport game once – so choose wisely.
