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

“It’s still magical,” she said

It’s one of those weeks where it feels like the entire world is making me wait for stuff (important stuff, life or death stuff). Bureaucracy marches on like the automaton it is. Still, I feel very, very free in this dress, in these shoes, in these woods. And that’s always been the beauty of SL to me.

Vintage LOTD – October 9 2012

Today, after heading over to PXL to join the VIP group. I wandered up into the special VIP only sale room and saw a GACHA vendor for PXL skins. I’m a sucker for GACHA… guess that’s why they call them GACHA… This skin is the RARE GAIA Vintage skin for only $99 L. So, of course I had to create a look for today, just for the skin. Isn’t it just gorgeous!?!
