Calming Neutrals And New Beginnings

Barnesworth Anubis created the Haight Apartment Skybox clearly to remind me how lovely simplicity and freeing myself from clutter can be.

It’s spring, and it’s time to slough off those dead skin cells, rid yourself of those dark winter colors and embrace the warmth of the world coming alive again. Continue reading

Put on a little make up make up…..

Some people would call me a skin whore but what I love more than skins are different types of make-ups. Not just like blushes and lipsticks and regular good ol add-on’s. I mean make-ups that transform your face. I love it when creators take chances and get crazy. One of my favorite places for insane make-up is La Malvada Mujer. I’ve used a few of their add-on’s in my pictures below.

I wish more people would take advantage of make-ups. It can take a skin in a whole new direction. Also, don’t be afraid to wear skins with the no brow option. There are SO many brow tattoo’s out there. Some of my favorite brow add-on’s are from Nuuna’s and Rotten Toe. A creative brow can make a whole new look for you.

In the pictures below I started with a clean base from Nuuna’s, it has no makeup on it at all and no brows. This makes it easier to apply add-on’s.

Let Your Flexi Flag Fly

mar28_004

David Crosby’s Almost Cut My Hair lyrics came to mind today as I was thinking about this post.

I almost cut my hair
‘Twas just the other day
It was gettin’ kinda long
I could-a said, it was in my way
But I didn’t and I wonder why
I want to let my freak flag fly
And I feel like I owe it to someone

I guess it’s because so many of us, including me have been deleting more and more of our old flexi and system clothing to make room for mesh. However, today I am going to let my flexi flag fly because there are still times when flexi gives us something that mesh cannot – movement that is flowing, soft and romantic as in this gorgeous gown from Azul.

Easter Egging

Easter with Sophie

I decided it wasn’t going to be a proper Easter unless I fetched Sophie from vising Uncle Inventory (She was there visiting with Gogo’s baby Chris) and took her to do some Easter Egg hunting! We had to go Easter dress shopping first, and I picked her up an adorable crocheted dress and Sweet Penelope & I slipped into this lovely leather dress from Baiastice that I’ve been looking for a reason to wear.

These garden gnomes though, they seem to be confused on the HUNT concept. Continue reading

Casual Comfort and Joy

in shadow_001

I used to own this book, titled something like How To Live Well When Your Age and Income are UNDER 30. Oddly, it was sort of a lifestyle book for when your career and finances aren’t in keeping with the aesthetics you’d like to embrace.

It gave you advice on how to appear “all together” – always wear at least lipgloss, do you nails – do them yourself it’s cheaper. Wear a scarf, it classes up even a tee shirt. Meet friends for apps vs dinner – it’s cheaper but still conveys that social eating and drinking vibe. It taught you how to hunt for chic, fun things to do within your budget. Continue reading

Just Visiting On A Sunday

Just Visiting

 

It seemed perfect to check out JUST VISITING on a Sunday, the traditional day of calling and visiting friends – after church of course.

I can’t remember having been here, so either it’s new or new to me but I decided it would be a more perfect world all purpley.
My Lunch Didn't Agree With Me
I tried to grab some lunch while visiting but then my lunch tried to grab me. I didn’t find this to be polite AT ALL!

Perfectly Purple

But in terms of a beautiful relaxing place to swaddle yourself in the windlight of your pleasure, it’s a perfect place.
