You Have To Go To Baiastice

As a community I think we do a nice job of celebrating people when times are bad for them. We shower love and all those things we should’ve said when people are ill, dying, dead, etc. Which is pretty awesome. People will say that the fashionistas are cold materialistic bitches but, when you see the outpouring of love that we can generate – I think it betrays our true natures. We’re not bishes, we just play them on the Grid.

But, what if sometimes we told people how awesome they are – just because? It’s not a meme or a challenge. More like, I wanted to blog this dress and didn’t have anything witty or interesting to share. I remembered the first time I went to Baiastice with Cajsa. She said “You have to go to Baiastice, it’s amazing.” Continue reading

What else could you do with seven itty bitty men…

June 25, 2012

The Lily dress from Baiastice comes in several lovely colors for the Fairy Tales 2012 event.

Cinderella’s on her bedroom floor
She’s got a
Crush on the guy at the liquor store
Cause Mr. Charming don’t come home anymore
And she forgets why she came here
Sleeping Beauty’s in a foul mood
For shame she says
None for you dear prince, I’m tired today
I’d rather sleep my whole life away than have you keep me from dreaming

’cause I don’t care for your fairytales
You’re so worried about the maiden though you know
She’s only waiting on the next best thing

Last Day of Chic2 and Only 3 More Days of SL9B

Oasis

The worst thing about events is that they close and I always feel that I have not seen enough, highlighted enough or done enough to share the great variety of creations at the event. That’s certainly true of Chic2 which closes today and of SL9B. The entertainment ends today but the exhibits will remain until the 27th. You should definitely go exploring and if you’re a freebie hunter, this is prime territory for freebies. Today I am wearing Tare, a new dress released by MiaMai with a summery pop art print in several colors. I chose orange because I picked up some orange shoes at Collabor88 that I wanted to wear.

But first take a look at this gorgeous tree from New Trails. It’s only 100 lindens at the moment – part of the Spruce Up Your Space event. It’s at New Trail right by the landing point. And then there are those logs on the floor with the moss and bracken. They also come with big mushrooms, but I edited them out since they were more fantasy than I wanted for this. It’s from Gallimaufry and free at their SL9B just two parcels down from the Blogger Carnival. There are six poses in the log, but they were laying down and sitting poses that didn’t work with this skirt and the handbag.

SL9B – so much to see

At SL9b

Here I am standing right in front of a striking kinetic sculpture of light and magic just down the street from our Blogger Carnival. I spent a few hours wandering around a few of the sims last night, barely scratching the surface, but there was so much to see. I dressed for exploring in this loose, casual top from Tea Time with leggings from Maitreya.

At SL9b

Peek-a-boo, I see you.

SL9B DJ Set

I signed up to DJ at SL9B and drew the 6 AM slot. My set was this morning and was a lot of fun. I featured music of community liberation and resistance from around the world, trying to craft a set to suit this years SL9B theme of community. Gogo gave me some smart advice, reminding me not to wear mesh in case there were folks attending without mesh viewers, so I dug out this gorgeous old dress from MichaMi and added hot pick shoes from Baiastice is spice it up with color.
