Totum quod splendet

jan07_003

It’s true, all that glitters is not gold. Sometimes it is bronze, silver or platinum. And sometimes it is a bit of all at once as in this gorgeous top from Fashionably Dead. The peplum top is available at Collabor88 where the theme this month seems to be proving that glitter comes in every color. I dressed it up with the bottom of the Kamille dress from Countdown. One of the advantages of combining mesh with system layers, as Countdown has, is the ability to mix and match which makes me happy.

At The Office

At The Office

 

It was a busy day at the office yesterday. My To Do list was a mile long and I don’t think it got any shorter by the end of my day. Fortunately, Cajsa has put up a lovely new office at Glookbone so at least if I have to sort through the work part of my SL I have a pretty place to do it. Continue reading

St Patrick’s Blue – Week 12

Slowly plodding through my 52 colors…..
The week I am on is St Patrick’s Blue – who knew St. Patrick had a blue? I sure didn’t…. well… now we do… and here is MY take on St. Patrick’s blue — this great dress from Purple Moon…..

It’s nice when technology forces me to grow

CHANGE BAD! But sometimes necessary.

Then there came the patch in which shadows broke. I couldn’t enable them in Phoenix Firestorm without crashing SL so badly that I had to clean install every. Single. Time. Cajsa hopped in with a fix for that: upgrade my Mac’s OS to the latest, and it would work! So I upgraded. And Lo, it was possible to enable shadows again. Sadly they don’t actually photograph yet (or there’s a fix I haven’t found), for only about half the shadow photos, and the rest is lost.

And then my ancient Photoshop broke. I shoulda made sure CS2 worked in Mountain Lion before hand, but sadly I didn’t and it doesn’t. I have downloaded Gimp and will try my best to learn it. All whining aside, it’s nice to have an SL that works reasonably well again. And change definitely forces me to think. And thinking is ALWAYS good. Right?

Anyway. I am wearing things by people. List below.

A Not So Quick Dip

A Quick Dip

 

I have to head back home later today but didn’t want to go without one more dip in the gorgeous waters here.  I brought with me a “not new” yet “still awesome” swim suit from One Bad Pixel, the ringed bikini. It’s perfect for swimming or just being pretty.
