Looking at the clear cut can be pretty sad, but over the hill there’s replanting. In fact, you can help support reforestation by going to the Happy Clam Island Reforestation Project and hugging a tree. Hugging a tree for 20 to 30 minutes while you are going through your day’s notes and message will pay to replant one tree. Or, you can just pay a tree directly. Just go and find a healthy uncut tree and give it a hug. It will thank you. And that should make you happy as a clam. Continue reading
It suddenly occurred to me that because the only skins of Hatchy’s I have worn were the Demon and the Neko skin that you might think she doesn’t make everyday skins. I decided I would wear her Mimi skin to show you. There’s a reason I don’t wear Hatchy’s skins very often. She made my shape and it’s somewhat similar to her own. She wears her skins all the time, of course, and so when I put one on, I look very much like her. I don’t want to confuse Gidge: one SL daughter is enough. Right, Gidge? Continue reading

You know what? I never shop at Sn@tch. Which is really lame of me. I like their stuff. I picked up those fantastic pirate skull shoes they put out for free, and not just because they were free but also because the bows were color change and I thought that they were a hoot. I would totally have paid for them.
There are always so many people THERE, and the models are chatty and they freak me out.
And then, I’m fairly sure everyone there hates me also.
WHY? Continue reading
Le Petite Fleur has more than an outrageously fun group gift. The store has lots of lovely dresses. The one I am wearing today is a confection with a cream base and several tones of dots in all the shades of coffee, from latte to mocha to espresso. I really wanted to wear this particular necklace, so I took of the dotted bodice that comes with it and chose another top. Continue reading

In my newbie-hood days, I was addicted to shopping but also had more than a bit of shopping ADD. I couldn’t always remember WHAT I had purchased. A lot of this I attribute to my former crew who advised me to fill up my inventory with worthless garbage – so that the few GOOD pieces I had, I couldn’t remember their names – or where I got them, etc.
Consequently, I bought some of the same things more than once.
This hair from Cake, and this dress from the former X3D now Digit Darkes is a great example. Continue reading
Creamy Cooljoke just wrote about this lovely group gift from Le Petite Fleur yesterday and I had to have it – in part because I used to this dress in RL or one substantially similar. Seeing it made me nostalgic and I rushed to get the dress which took all of two seconds since it was a group gift. It was chilly last night, though, so I added a shrug from Stitch by Stitch to cover the bare shoulders and stay a bit warmer. Continue reading

First I Drink…….
Then I Smoke……
Yeah, I’m in a KISS mood. That quote was for all you 40 year old guys pretending to be 25 year old guys. Or pretending to be girls. Your Mom doesn’t like what you’ve done to her basement.
But I digress.
I recently got the opportunity to meet and visit with Rhaorth from RHA! designs while we were shopping at Zaara. She was talking to someone else when I got there, about fashion bloggers etc…….and you know me. Continue reading
So…I am wandering around the Best of Italian Design sim – popping in to test a store SLUrl I added to the directory – and discovered OC: Orage Creations and dropped everything I was doing just to enjoy the marvelously surreal designs. Although most were priced about average for high fashion gowns, there were two dresses indistinguishable from the others in quality, but marked down without fanfare to 10 and 20L. I snapped them up and decided to share the wealth by spreading the word. The first one I put together with MiaSnow’s magnificently eccentric Wild Woman Hair – a magic chair gift. She kindly set the chair to 5 minutes, so it won’t take you all day to win. I thought the wild span of the hair and the wild black plumage at the top of the dress was a nice pairing.

I received a wonderful array of Role Play style medieval garments from Elegance a while back and with my RL move and all, it took me a while to get a chance to show them to you. The Persimmon set features an array of options, pants, cape, scrolls (scripted and unscripted), hood, boots, shoes etc….to fit your needs. If you like to role play, or dress up in beautifully detailed medieval clothes just for grins – this is a great set. Well worth the investment, because of the myriad of options you get for outfits.

Another of the radically different and interesting skins my friend Hatchy has made is this Neko skin with hand-drawn fur covering the entire body. The first time she gave me a skin of this design, before she had completed all of it, she forgot to tell me what it was, so I kept waiting for it to finish rezzing. I thought it would be fun to style an outfit for this skin – but not necessarily to make it Neko. Indeed, my choice right off the top was the very un-Neko Baiastice. Continue reading
