This adorable little sweater dress from Bowtique is so sweet with its peppermint pink striped inset down the front, the double row of ribbons and the pink pearl buttons. However, it is saved from being saccharine thanks to a sharp, flat collar and the ribbed selvage at the bottom. If that collar had been rounded and if there were a ruffled skirt, this dress would rot your teeth. Instead, it satisfies your sweet tooth without causing any cavities.

Cajsa Fast Five: April 19th
There’s so much today, that I had my five before I even began browsing feed.There’s a video preview of Fantasy Faire that is stunning, a great Disney Bound post and info on an advertising campaign you might be interested in.
- SL DisneyBound – Merida: I want the hair. This is simply stunning and one of my favorite from all the DisneyBound challenge posts yet. I love everything Elisaokkbye did from the dress to the hair to the pose.
- A Secret Setting in the Viewer? The folks over at Firestorm/Phoenix are having altogether too much fun. You simply must look at the photos. The last one from Whirly Fizzie had me laughing myself silly.
- The Drax Files Episode Four – Fantasy Faire/RFL: Draxtor Depres interviews Zander Greene, one of the organizers of Fantasy Faire. Zander is an incredible interview, articulate and expressive in his language. The video is beautiful highlighting much of the beautiful of Fantasy Faire.
- A Tiny Roleplay Misunderstanding in Second Life – Honour McMillan has been blogging about travel in SL for a long time and often posts wonderful explorations of different sims. This time, however, something went awry.
- Casting Call: Apply to Star in a Second Life Ad Campaign – Here’s your shot at your 15 minutes of SLfame and SLebrity. LL is looking for avatars who are willing to reveal their RL selves and whose avatars and RL selves are different.
I’m a creep, I’m a weirdo
I’ve always believed that in Second Life it doesn’t need to be Halloween to dress like a complete weirdo. In fact, I’m constantly browsing the marketplace for bizarre things to put on my avatar. It’s fun! I dress like boring person out here in the real world (although that will be changing soon since I’ve made a new friend who makes her own clothes and is currently making me a super cute dress) so I like to get creative here in SL.
I Love Rock and Roll
I love Rock and Roll almost as much as Joan Jett does. I am feeling particularly rock and roll today in this rockin’ outfit from Gizza with a boost from Baistice and MiaMai. Gizza’s Anarchy outfit includes sleeveless mesh tees that can be worn for a bit more coverage and a leather biker cap. It’s a hot rock outfit, with glam elements such as the quilted leather skirt and the gold chain belt. I wanted to add to the glam, though, so I added a jacket from Baiastice full of gold studs. It comes in several colors and I was tempted to go for black, but decided I like the use of silver with gold.
Gidge’s Fast Five April 18th
I was scrolling through the feeds this morning while drinking my coffee and realized I’d noted two posts to look at later for shopping, therefore I was almost to a fast five. Thus, I bring you the Fast Five from Gidge inspired by my morning coffee shopping time.
1. The Blues-Ish The gradient blue in this picture caught my eye immediately. I love FreeStyle and still use it as a catalog of places to shop that provide quality free or inexpensive items.
2. Beautiful Life: I only like poses that appear to be mid-motion. I’m weird like that. Sam Laszlo’s post has some great pics that truly look like avatars caught mid-joy. Love the looks too. Continue reading
Cajsa Fast Five: April 17
Today finds me sending you back to the same blog as last time, but how could I not, the photo is so special. The rest if great fashion or lifestyle blog posts and one post with guidance on pronunciation.
- A Midsummer Nights Dream: Wise Sandalwood had half of Plurk agog yesterday wondering how she did this. I assume she used a mix of different texture layers and brushes in Photoshop. Part of the magic is not telling. The other part is recognizing how perfectly the Doll Coco Avatar is for creating illustrations.
- Loneliness: Wicca Merlin does a stunning exploration of hard and soft textures and moods in styling her Gizza-centric outfit yesterday. The pieces she pulled together should have been disjointed, but somehow they work together.
- The FIC Is Back! (Or It Never Left) – This is a few days old as I hesitated to include this post from Prokofy Neva whose infinite capacity for argument is well-known. However, I have been mispronouncing FIC all this time. It rhymes with BIKE, not SICK. That is one of the things covered in this op-ed full of speculation that is debunked in the Update at the end.
- Soleil: Eve Kazan has a beautiful travel/fashion post featuring the arid FAS sim and her finds at the local market, the spice, the pottery, the flowers…
- 229: Nati Williams did a post featuring her garden. I want to live there.
Nirans Viewer for the win!
I tried out the Nirans Viewer today for my blog pictures. I’ve always been a 3rd party viewer gal. Firestorm has been my interface of choice but after a while my pictures started becoming wonky. I heard Nirans was the viewer of choice when it came to taking pictures. After fiddling around with the interface and figuring out where everything was…I’m pleasantly surprised!
Pop vs. Soda
The Soda Pop Dress from Deco for April’s Collabor88 reminded me of the ancient cultural struggle between those who say Soda and those who say Pop and the outliers who say Coke. It’s a conflict that has been mapped and researched and will probably continue long after we all are gone. DECO’s designer sidestepped the controversy by called the dress the Soda Pop dress, showing a keen instinct for diplomacy.
Menswear Fashion Week is Coming
Menswear Fashion Week 2013 is coming soon and I was thrilled to write an article for the AVENUE MWFW Supplement about the avant garde fashion house Faster Pussycat. If you’re interested, you can find the issue with the schedule and all the details here.
Why You Need These Things…A Post About Staples
There are things any well dressed girl has to have. HAS to have. Even if you just have ONE, it should be a good one and serviceable. Today’s post is dedicated to those things. Continue reading
