I found a fun site last night – and forgive me if everyone in the world already knows about it – it was new to me. It’s part of Koin-Up a social networking site that overall confuses me and leaves me befuddled and unnetworked. However, it more than makes up for that with this resources. Koin-Up Places.It’s sort of a resident-generated pictoral directory of Second Life’s® cool places and it got me running far and wide. I shot this photo in Tuscany. Continue reading

I’m dogmatic about my eyes. I never change them. It’s to the point where I often think I’ll forget to list them in the fashion details – FNKY – PURPLE RAIN. Yet when I recently picked up this festive limited edition skin at Juicy it came packed full of these iridescent eyes with butterfly pupils.
A soft pink make up with delicate details for a girly girl seemed just my sort of skin to have hanging in the closet and I loved the idea of there being only a limited number of them being sold. I immediately knew what carnival of pink I’d drape over this new skin. Continue reading
More than one person has called me a pixel prude so imagine my surprise at myself when I opened a review box sent by a new designer with a new store (Jordanna Magic of Magic Kisses) and found myself most drawn to an extremely racy lingerie set. Totally not my style – but there was something about it that I liked. Continue reading

Fall is coming. In the US it’s Labor Day weekend – a three day holiday where we’re soaking up the end of the summer goodness and preparing for the fall to really descend. Continue reading
brrrr….the rain can make you feel so cold. Especially if you’re silly and leave your jacket at home. Thank goodness I at least had an umbrella when I went to the shopping alley. Today I am wearing a lovely Haley hairstyle from Bishwear for Hair Fair and the dress I almost chose for the “mind’s true liberation” post when I was still trying to think of clothing.

……If You CAN Then My Hair’s TOO SHORT!
See.
I know songs from Hair!
That particular one, was a favorite in High School – as we were lacquering our hair with more layers of Aquanet and teasing it this way and that, yet dropping those bangs down strategically to look disheveled.
I recently told Cajsa that I think my love affair with Aleri Darkes hair stems from my love of her bangs in the face styles.
I gotta have bangs. And Aleri isn’t shy about shagging up a ‘do with some killer bangs, I tell you that. Continue reading
I was tired last night so just stayed home and vegged in front of the fire in leggins and a long sweater/dress, but still in hair from Hair Fair – this time from Majika.

Looking for a fun Urban Decay sort of spot to shoot, Cajsa and I hearkened back to our past and went to the newly remodeled Vicious Wasteland. With ability to build and run scripts, this is a great spot for shooting photos or people – depending on your preference.
We were choosing to spotlight the fashions of one of The Grid’s Russian designer’s Olya Lowey. Olya’s designs vary between ultra-modern visions of future fashions to Romanov velvet influences, all with sharp details and many including shoes and accessories. Continue reading
Aquarius!
Aquarius!
For something as grandiose as the Mind’s True Liberation, I really could not imagine the appropriate clothing to depict it – so reached back in time to Coventry and an early act of civil disobedience and nonviolent resistance.

****STYLE NOTES******
Eyes: IC-Eyes Soulful Hazel
Skin: Tuli Elizabeth Light Electra
Hair: Bishwear Haley (2 copies) on on the head and on on the shoulder because I am a pixel prude.
Another Hair Fair Find and yes, another from Bishwear. Can I help it that I like shaky, shakey shakey hair? This style features straighter, more flyaway hair that has a naturalistic look to it. To give myself a crystalline feel, I went for this lovely group gift from Baiastice. Continue reading
