Idiosyncrasy’s Justice is a delightful skin that makes me think of the women you see in a de Lempicka painting. I love the rich, bold lipstick and eyeshadow and the strong look of this skin. It is a fundraiser skin for CARE International at the Skin Expo and a wonderful addition to any inventory. I wore it with the multi-color jewelry from Bliensen & Maitai because it suited the lovely halter top I picked up at Different Drummer – a new to me store.

It all started with the hair. This damned hair that Cajsa has been flaunting from Exile…….I had to have it. As Hannibal Lector taught us – WHAT do we Covet? That which we see every day. So eventually I broke down and bought it because OMG it’s big and floofy and FANTASTIC. Continue reading
And this dress is hot! Now I have no idea why I have never seen Emelia Redgrave at a club because if there’s a designer that knows what a clubbing dress should look like, she’s the one! This is not the first and will not be the last of her amazingly hot and sexy clubbing dresses that I have worn. It’s a very complete outfit, too, including the hosiery and the bangles with perfect details like the lovely sash and cinch.
Boudoir is a new-to-me store that features the work of a RL designer bringing her work into SL. Vitabela Dubrovna, as she is called in SL, has some of her RL designs on display for you to see. The SL designs are not identical, but reflect similar design aesthetics. However, while visiting her store I bumped into her and saw that she is going beyond the possibilities of RL clothing by adding a rose petal emitter to a rose-petal festooned gown. The dress shown here, though, is as comfortable in either world. A lovely pewtery gray dress with a beautifully ruffled skirt, Boutique’s Ruffles dress would be a delight for dancing or parties.
Have you ever watched the Rachel Zoe Project? I confess it is a guilty indulgence of mine. I love fashion and so I can understand her someone out-of-kilter priorities. Much is made of her pet phrases like “Bananas!” and “I Die.” and the like, but they never seem to notice that there is one word repeated again and again and again in every episode – and that word is options. “We need more options!” is the theme of Rachel Zoe and her crazy staff’s lives. Well, if she had this dress she would have many options in one. For example, the bodice can be worn like this with bare skin peeping out or….

Ashia Tomsen was a sweetie and dropped some review skins on me from one of her latest releases. I’m wearing her JUSTICE – Charity skin and omg, it screams glam sexy to me.
I am rarely a fan of the pouty lip – unless it’s done “just so” and for my taste anyway, Ashia has nailed it. I’ll be wearing some more of these in future posts (which I have shot) but I just felt so glam in this one I had to bring it out first.
Well it’s a marvelous night for a moondance
With the stars up above in your eyes
A fantabulous night to make romance
‘Neath the cover of October skies
And all the leaves on the trees are falling
To the sound of the breezes that blow
And I’m trying to please to the calling
Of your heart-strings that play soft and low
You know the night’s magic
Seems to whisper and hush
And all the soft moonlight
Seems to shine in your blush…
Could I just have one more Moondance with you, my love?
Can I make some more romance with you, my love?
Oh, this dress is made for dancing in the moonlight. It catches the light and reflects the moonlight as you dance. Of course, when I wore it dancing I did take off the jacket, but this sure is the jacket to be seen in.
I thought I might show you why my posting has been so erratic lately. I caught the flu and have been struggling with it for a month now – hoping to get well enough to be able to spend more time online again. However, I hope with lots of sleep and chicken soup I will back to normal soon. Meanwhile, I found this completely wearable The Flu outfit at GiftHorse. One case of The Flu is 50L, but if you want to give a lot of your friends The Flu, it is sold in six-packs for 250L.

Well whenever I’m bored on the grid, it never ceases to amaze me the amusements I can find at Sn@tch, even when I am NOT shopping. For instance, last night I rode a bucking Panda Bear.
I’ve got really good form don’t you think? Continue reading

The new military styled swing jacket from HILARIOUS designer Kesseret Steeplechase is probably one of THE must have jackets on the grid this fall. It’s a look that is hot in RL and her great styling made this one of the few things I’ve seen on the feed recently that made me say /DO WANT. Continue reading
