Almost Bald And No Edits

collabor 88

I was in a bit of a rush this morning so first of all, I was in a dither. I had the new hair from D!VA which is PRECIOUS at Collabor88 except, for some reason this one just doesn’t suit my face. D!VA makes PRECIOUS hair, and it’s exactly the sort of hair I WANTED so, I dug out a style from a month or two ago. VOILA.

But then I was a lazy blogger and just decided to edit in aviary and waddya know with the clock ticking, Aviary was down. Continue reading

Angel from the Fire

The Designers have begun sending out their monthly subscriber gifts for the OCTOBER gifts and it’s shaping up to be a beautiful month. I am going to post each item individually this time and first up is a release that should be dropped into the group in the next day or so – from Sacha’s Designs it’s CRUELLA complete with wings you can adjust to fit your AV better (yay for being able to mod).

Design Your Own With Great Pieces

oct12_005

When I unpacked the glorious “My Feathered Waspie” from La Penderie de Nicole, I realized it was one of those pieces that could be mixed and matched with bits and pieces of other outfits to make fun, new things, giving me a chance to “design my own.”

It’s TIME TO GET READY FOR HALLOWEEEEEEEN

Holiday Baking

I really really like Halloween in both lives. Crazy decorating, lots of treats, there is no end to my enthusiasm. I started breaking out my fall/Halloween awesome decorations this past week and decided that some baking is definitely in order. Continue reading

No Muss, No Fuss

Oct08_003

When I saw this fabulous off-the-shoulder sweater from erratic for FaMESHed this month, I immediately thought of these gorgeous pants from Cashmere that I found at Vintage Fair. Sure enough, they are a great match and perfect for a no muss, no fuss Saturday.

To Hang Vigil For Odin

Weeping for Odin

I chose one of my favorite books, American Gods, as the inspiration for my pose prop for the DEAD COOL Halloween event. I think it’s time we started rolling out the truly macabre and grisly wonders of the month of October, and while I didn’t include an actual hanging pose, I think electing suicide is macabre enough.

The Plastik Gambit

oct08t_006

I don’t know which opening move Aikea Rieko is commemorating with her Gambit dress, but it must be a colorful one.
I love the many iterations of this Gambit dress from The Plastik for FaMESHed and there is one in the tradition black and white colors of chess, so the name makes perfect sense. But for me, I am drawn to the wild, hallucinogenic prints like this one and the one that Acha wore the other day. But then, I have never had the patience for chess.

It’s a Wrap

Oct06b_005

I wonder if Diane von Fursternberg knew, back in 1972 when she introduced her wrap dress, that it would completely conquer the world. This Kennedy dress from Rebel Hope shows us why. It’s a model of simplicity, free of embellishments. Its lines are clean and spare with no added darts and pleats for structure, its shape formed by its easy embrace of the body. Its color gives it a dash of the casual while its fluidity and side wrapped bodice add a touch of cleavage and sex appeal. It may have come into being in 1972, but its organic shape made it an instant classic. It’s one of the fabulous mesh pieces you can find at this month’s FaMESHed showcase.

…DRAW !

...DRAW

I realized after I edited that this pose looks like I’m about to have a shootout.

This town ain’t big enough for the both of us, pardner.

Fitting as I chose the western pattern of leggings to wear from Baiastice for this shoot. She just released beautiful leggings in a variety of colors and patterns. I was feeling fall colors when I got dressed though, and chose shades to reflect that. Continue reading
