I am enough of a princess to love the girly skirts my Uriza cousin Ghanima creates on a regular basis. But today I’m excited to show you a couple of other things that are new to me & are exceedingly festive!
My friend Hybie has a little hair shop called TENDRILS and she has made hairs! I chose the most white/platinum shades for fun and only picked up a couple, but I really liked the selection at her little show. Boutique hair FTW! Continue reading
It’s pretty clear that with the many Sn@tch separates we can put together all sorts of looks, but let’s not forget that we can also take pieces of outfits and mix with separates for an entire new look as well. For example, the cocktail dance dress that Gidge blogged the other day is a perfect resource for mining for ingredients in a new look. Here, I take the bodice and sleeves and mix with a sash from Personal and a skirt from Sn@tch for a new look.
Congratulations on being awarded a Fabbie from It's Only Fashion.
What with one thing and another, Gidge and I have decided to enter the fraught fray of awards and accolades with our own entry – the Fabbies. The Fabbies will recognize excellence in blogging wherever we see it and recipients are encouraged to post the award banner on their winning post. There are some rules and criteria that we should go over now.
This post is a Fabbie Winner!
And now, without further hoo-hah, I am pleased to announce the first recipient of a Fabbie, Nikkita Auerbach of Second Life® Fashion Addict for her fun and informative and fabulous post Schrodinger: Genius or Just a Guy Who Hated Cats. In this post, she not only explains the logic problem of Shrodinger’s Cat illustrated within SL – but does so with wit and Cecil Adams. How many SL posts bring the world’s smartest human into the fray? For this and general fabulosity, I am happy to congratulate Nikkita Auerbach and present her with this Fabbie.
These are some of my favorite pieces from Digit Darkes and as her most unashamed fan girl, i will miss her intensely. We have featured her 166 times on our blog and it seems like it should have been more. Gidge!

I am not alone is feeling shock, dismay and sadness that Digit Darkes has left SL – at least under that name, closing her store and her sim. I don’t know why and won’t speculate, but will only offer this retrospective of some of the joy and color she has brought to my SL experience.

Her face is a map of the world, is a map of the world
You can see she’s a beautiful girl
She’s a beautiful girl
And everything around her is a silver pool of light
The people who surround her feel the benefit of it
it makes you calm
She holds you captivated in her palm……….
Good Morning beautiful girls.
If you’ve been under a rock, it’s important to get to The Dressing Room to pick up Gina 04 from Tuli because who doesn’t want to be a beautiful girl?
Style Notes:
Marie Antoinette was a fashionista. She’s not the original fashionista because there’s Du Barry and Pompadour. I am sure if we could only find the style section of The Imperial Times of Rome, we could discover Calpurnia’s favorite stola maker. Fashion is probably as old as human existence since we just know that some cave women draped their skins better than others. Still, Marie Antoinette does have the singular distinction of being someone whose love of fashion not only contributed to her death, but to a revolution. I guess it is possible to take love of fashion too far. Sshhh! Don’t tell Gidge!
Anyway, if Marie were alive today, she would shop at Sn@tch, and she would buy this dress. Good grief, it’s named after her. I shot it at Utopia 04-Markus Inkpen. When I choose a place to shoot an outfit, I generally choose one of two approaches. Either the setting and the clothing are in complete harmony, such as a 20’s style gown in a speakeasy or they are completely dissonant such as this bright colorful fantastical dress in this somber sim, apposite and opposite you could say.
International Fashion Week is winding to a close and so are my highlights of some of the lovely designs on offer there. I could not miss out on showing you the lovely Milena dress, an IFW10 exclusive, since MiaMai is a long-time favorite of mine and always produces luxurious and beautiful gowns. The Milena is no different. It has a back that dips into the Tropic of Capricorn and a bodice that dips to the Tropic of Cancer and entire continents of ruffles. Now as to those best-laid plans….

I can count my real friends on The Grid on one hand. And I feel like I’m lucky, because some people can’t even say that.
I made one of the best friends I ever had, thanks to Sn@tch. Continue reading
