That Top Is a Dress

sept09_002

I am wearing one of the many options for the new Nico dress from Maitreya. It comes in several colors and prints and has an easy summer style with its loose and breezy shape. It is, however, impossibly short for me. Of course, that makes it so very flexible. I could wear it with leggings as a dress or with pants as a top.

My Favorite SL Blogs

Gogo over at JuicyBomb did a Top Ten list of her favorite SL blogs. I was so pleased that It’s Only Fashion made the cut. JuicyBomb certainly makes my list. I guess “we belong to a mutual admiration society”, as the song goes.  I thought it would be fun to make my own list. So, in no particular order:

What they have in common is that they write. They have something to say as well as something to show. Show and tell. Dantelicia is the one exception, but her photos are so wild, they tell stories of their own. Of course there are so many others that I like and a couple go-to for news and updates that are can’t miss like:

Golden grove

Saiyge's wood

I’ve been redecorating the skybox as a surprise for Jackal (don’t tell!), and was overjoyed to log in last night to a message from Balderdash. NEW GROVE! That’s right, Saiyge made an entire wee grove of Autumn trees, so that I don’t have to make it myself, and it’s a scant few prims, too! I love all of the stuff that comes from Balderdash anyway, but orange and gold leaves make me particularly happy. I’m cavorting through them in clothing from a year ago that I still love.

Glamming It Up

sep05_002

I was DJing the other night and decided this new dress from Glam Affair for faMESHed fit the bill perfectly. It comes in pink, mint and black and features a dramatic asymmetrical skirt with a belted empire waist. It really is a lovely dress for dancing though I had to choose relatively simple dances to avoid exposing the alpha texture that made my avatar’s body disappear. Of course, nearly all dresses place some constraints on what dances I use, so that’s no big deal to me.

Speaking of alpha textures. It would be nice if creators made alphas at the absolute minimum size. This skirt stands out a bit from the hips, so I wonder if the alpha could have ended at the waist or at the hip bone rather than continuing down to the thigh. Of course, I was too lazy to make my own, but considering how sexy this dress is, it would be lovely for the sexy lingerie I was wearing to show. It would certainly allow for a more rambunctious dance – perhaps one with a kick or two.
