The One Where I Steal Cajsa's Jewelry

posted by Gidge Uriza

I picked up this skirt and sweater over at Edge Designs after Belle Lefavre sent me over there exploring. I thought the skinned knees were very reminiscent of my youth, where I tripped and fell over everything in sight regularly. Forbidden to wear clogs of any sort due to such clumsiness, I would have rocked this look daily had I dressed this way, I promise.

Bandaids can be fashion! We’re setting a trend, two posts with bandages of some sort in 24 hours. Continue reading

Hee Haw or I wasn't kidding about the boots.

Normally I would wait and post this in the morning, but since I have shown you Miffy in these old lace up boots in black, I thought you would enjoy the funny coincidence that we were both wearing the same boots, but in completely different styles. After a trip to magi take, I could not resist showing off my finds – especially since it reminds me of cleaning out the cow barn at my uncle’s dairy farm. This may be TMI, but I assure you it’s much more pleasant shoveling straw and manure than washing down the milk off the floor in the milking shed.

Apocalypse Chic

When Miffy came over to the new It’s Only Fashion Blogging Headquarters and Day Spa (a photosphere on the bottom of the ocean in Glookbone back where we began MDR 18 months ago) I asked her if I could shoot her outfit for the blog. Sometimes I can really admire how someone styles herself – even if would never opt for that style – simply because of the utter commitment to her concept.  That’s what engages me with this outfit – that, and the quality of the components beginning with this amazing backpack from Tonktastic.

When I picked up my fatpack of Alto tone skins at Symphony Skins – I told creator Claire Harford that I was gonna rummage through inventory and break them out in some bikinis to show them off. They’re gorgeous with nice femme tummies and no muscle-y shadowing while still looking quite fit.

Plus she included a cleavage version with some monster cleavage going on – this one’s for the …….boys! (Or girls if that’s how you roll). Continue reading

Back To Work? Really?

It’s alleged that it is Monday Morning and that this means I need to put on a suit and act like a grownup and not some pixel fashionista.

Sigh. Who’s plan IS this anway? I didn’t vote for it. I should send out a memo….

Or just stay swaddled in another super fun production by June Dion’s BARE ROSE. Bare Rose as we all know is great for boxing up several versions of their clothes and for often giving you accessories (FTW) and goodies to complete your look.

TOY SHOP GIRL is no exception.

Including the jeans, top, bag and all the other accessories (most of which are just images on the bag or the shirt which is good, you aren’t carting around a lot of prims and they are well done and look good). It also includes the glasses which Cajsa insists make me look like Sarah Palin.

A small part of me died upon hearing that. Continue reading

The birthday of friend and designer Polaire Aeghin of PRELUDE was an excuse to break out this shimmery confection of a gown from Victoria V that I picked up during the grand opening of the SXY2nd sim.  Yeah I know, your friend is a creator so who do you wear to their private event?

Royal Blue ♦ Suzie Blue

Ben Harper is one of my favorite singer/songwriters. It’s a joy to listen to him explore all sorts of musical roots and genres as he seeks a good song – which he once said was really what it is all about – a good emotional song.  I was listening to him this morning and had hit the ITunes Genius button and the Genius decided to play “If I Could Hear My Mother Pray Again” Oh yeah, that was an emotional song. Thirty minutes and three hankies later, I can finish posting this great separates from the new Royal Blue Collection which will be released on the 13th and share a more cheerful  Ben Harper song. Okay, it doesnt’ start out cheerful, but it gets there.

Hunting Gear

Gidge and I did the VIP Keys hunt last night finishing late enough that I have not even peeked at our gifts yet. However, it was a pleasant hunt and 50 seems just about the right number. It was the first hunt I have completed since the Halloween Ghost hunt. I found some new-to-me stores and spent more than I should have, so it seems to work the way it’s supposed to.  This is the outfit I wore while hunting – casual and comfy, but still stylish and fun.

Can I Interest The Gentleman In Something?

The Leopard babydoll set from Indigoblue on the Sxy2nd sim was just the ticket for a sexy new lingerie pick up. You can wear it with or without the prim babydoll attachment, but I was feeling a bit girly (duh it’s ME) so I included it for your viewing pleasure.

It’s a pity though, cuz this skin has a rockin femme tummy, as do all of the skins from PXL Creations. Continue reading
