Curio: Party Girl Celebration and Settlement Frustration

jan02_004

Dress by Leverocci

Like many other fashionistas who have long enjoyed and appreciated Gala Phoenix’s skins, I was thrilled to read that a settlement had been reached and Curio’s doors are open once again. To celebrate, Gala released an entire pack of her skins, with all the makeups and all the tones, to her in-world group. What a generous gift, especially in celebration of what must have been a very frustrating process. I think many people are feeling frustrated. I know I have mixed emotions. My celebration that Curio has returned to the grid is tempered by the very real disappointment that the settlement precludes the storybook verdict and vindication that all the courtroom dramas promise us.

Beep Beep Beep

Beep Beep BeepThis has not been the best morning. I just spent twenty minutes running around this Linden neighborhood looking for my cat. WHERE IS MY CAT? She wasn’t in bed with me like she should be. The Kittycats hud won’t find her. WHERE IS MY CAT? And – somehow, in the night, someone has stolen all of my nail polish.  My entire rack is empty and I know for a FACT I locked the doors. I was not starting out right at all. Plus, I was tired.

Days End

Some Me timeI decided to continue getting things done today so after a quick stretch I decided to go for a run to learn my new neighborhood. Surely someone would be out and about, right? I mean – they aren’t all INVISIBLE. Are they… Continue reading

Up And At’Em

Morning Adventure

 

I’ve got a full agenda today. That holiday off made it like a Monday all over again. Good grief, I am worn out just thinking of all the things this pixel girl has to accomplish today. But, there was nothing for it but to do it – so I hopped in the car and headed out into the world to cross off my list of to-do’s.

Art For The Mind

After a quick cup of coffee, I decided I was going to start my day out with some avatar enrichment.  So I popped over to an adorable modern art gallery. I see a lot of Pollack  inspiration but the entire collection is one of various mode and tone in the modern school. It’s a fun location to shoot outside as well, so I recommend taking a few moments, and looking at something lovely today. It’s soul filling. I promise.

And now I’ve got to find my iPhone because Siri needs to tell me what’s next for today. I can’t live without her!

I Moved To Government Housing

My Linden Home - Welcome to 104 - the Boo Haus

 

It’s true. I have moved into a Linden Home – albeit probably temporarily.

Remember when they came out? And it was like wow, you can put one decent sofa in there and maybe a table and then you are out of prims? Well, with mesh, that’s all changed. I did some very cursory shopping – but my first pass at living a more modest lifestyle has begun, we’ll see how it suits me. Continue reading

Fancy Dress Parties

Every year I cringe at the thought of New Year’s Eve parties. There is always this expectation that you are supposed to have an awesome time and party hard and every year I’ve always been let down. This year though, I had a pretty good time, granted, I spent the evening with friends in SL dancing and being silly at Rouge Lounge, it was an excellent time and I also don’t have to deal with a horrible hang over.

I found this simple and elegant evening gown from Lilleth Mills Couture on the marketplace called Lana. It’s moves so well and the texture gives the illusion that it sparkles when you move. It was a hit!

2012 1 1 – Aquamarine – Week 11

My New Year’s Resolution is to blog more – cause we all know I suck at blogging regularly… and since Luna JUST posted her last post of the 52-Week’s of Color Part Deux, I have some catching up to do……
So here goes… Week 11 Aquamarine. I chose this dress from GizzA, quite a while back and have had it in my “to be blogged” folder just waiting for me to get off my ass and blog….

Aquamarine 11a

Its a beautiful, flowing casual gown suitable for an afternoon wedding or a late night walk on the beach with the man of your dreams….

More after the cut….

Five Years Ago Today

jan01_002

My first blog post was published five years ago today. It is encouraging to see how many of the designers in the first post are still with us. RaC is now LAQ, but that is just a name change. Adam n Eve and Nikky Ree, Muse, Simtropia and Innovations remain, though Muse has not released anything new in a very long time. I guess it shows that quality endures if designers keep adapting as time passes. Of course, there are new designers who bring quality to the table too and who I expect will be releasing in five years if Second Life is still around. Certainly I would expect a designer that brings such variety and imagination to the craft as Giz Seom does for Gizza will be around for my 10th anniversary blog post.
