A Skin Fit For A Fairy Queen

posted by Gidge Uriza

I still have a penchant for fairy things, from my days as the Vicious Fairy (some might say I rather secretly still AM the Vicious Fairy), and when Cajsa and I threw a Winter Fairy Ball last year, nothing but the queen of the fairies would do for me.

And when I got the notice that Hart had released a beautiful FROZEN Linda make up for group members…..I knew exactly what dress that skin deserved. Continue reading

Rangoon or It Doesn't Hurt to Ask

I have told you about the XNT Rangoon Shirts before in a post in which I wished designer Nix Sands would make a underpants layer so the shirts would tuck in and be wearable with lower-waisted clothing.  In conversation, I explained that not all of us women like baring our navels all the time and he promised to look into it.  I was delighted, then, when he dropped two new Rangoon shirts on me with the underwear layer. One was black cherry and the other was this gorgeous pearl shirt.

Boom has yet another enticing and lovely outfit – a dress this time – called Celebration. However, please don’t store this in your Christmas Clothing and Jewelry box to molder away until next year. It’s a lovely dress that can be worn  year round. Here you see it with the delicate lace jacket from Zenith – a tintable froth of a jacket.

Sometimes, I Just Find Stuff on the Floor

posted by Gidge Uriza

Wandering the grid, I’m prone to finding leftover hunt items sitting about. This is especially true around holidays, and I know how it can be. I once left Easter Eggs sitting out around Vicious Island for over a month – because I forgot where I hid them + Cajsa and I were really busy hosting two HUGE themed events per week.

I am usually terribly delighted when I find these things though, as my schedule rarely permits me to participate in “hunts” on a regular basis. Continue reading

Falling in love with Modern Gypsy

A friend asked me to TP to Stiletto Moody to see if I could. While standing near the TP point, explaining that it was open only to group members because of the 40% off sale I spotted an elegantly styled and lovely woman. Her name is Staci Bernard and after I admired her lovely outfit, she was kind enough to give me the landmark and introduce me to Modern Gypsy where I found the gorgeous jacket she wore as well as this coat and oh-so much more.

Dress Me Up Challenge – Gidge by Luna Jubilee

posted by Gidge Uriza

Dressing like a grunge girl now poses the same problems for me that it did when I was a girl deeply enmeshed in the self-same music and culture. How to be a girly girl, in a scene that does not embrace the pink and frilly?

The answer of course, is carefully, very carefully. Continue reading
