Retrofitting Club Gear

If I Were Clubbing_001

Digging through my inventory you might find a lot more items from Nomine that you’d imagine. Most of them are things I bought some time ago and the quality is too good for me to find a reason to trash outright. Continue reading →

Sometimes I Feel

may11_002

The lovely button-front shirt is from Kunglers. The jeans are from The Plastik, they come in more colors and prints than I can count. I suppose the lyric is maudlin, but Mother’s Day is a hard day for me. I miss her every day, but some days are harder than others. 

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
A long ways from home

Miamai IS The Protagoniste

Protagonist means the first character or the leader. That’s quite fitting because Miamai has been busy carving out a new normal in makeup and fashion with the release of the Protagoniste beauty HUD. Eyeliners, lashes, eyes, contacts, face gems, the list goes on of amazing variables that are possible all in one HUD. I thought I would take a few minutes to walk you though the basics to not only show you how it works but what is possible, from girl next door to Gaga.

Protagoniste by Miamai - Step One Pick Out Your Eyes

I chose a bare makeup from Pink Fuel because I really wanted to show off what amazing about this creation vs an already glammed up skin. Continue reading →

Cajsa Fast Five: May 11

Fast Five There is so much goodness today, I had more than five picks before I even opened up the feeds. So, for great pictures, great styling and generally great posts, let’s get started.

 

  1. Memory Bliss – Sophee Mojo just blows my mind with this post. If you don’t scroll down to see her head shot, I will punish you. The composition is masterful, from the ess-curve made with her head, neck and shoulders, her use of the golden ratio and the rule of threes with those bright pops of red. I am in love with this photo.  Continue reading →

Float Like A Butterfly

may10_004

Can anyone wear yellow and black and not have at least a passing thought of bees? While this dress from Les Petits Details is far too lovely to sting like a bee, it does float beautifully. Combining system layers, mesh and sculpts, it was designed to cleverly take advantage of each element of clothing manufacture. Continue reading →

Gidge’s Fast Five: May 10th Friday Night Is Alright Edition

GidgeFast Five Well it’s Friday Night and if you didn’t already do your FLF shopping shame on you the clock is ticking. But if you’re done, I’ve got some other good things to show you before you head out to dance the night away or whatever it is your digital world holds.

 

1. Last Chance: Wedding Season is upon us in both worlds. I thought the little purse was a lovely touch. I used to wear wedding dresses to combat role play sims. True story. I wonder why I’ve always struggled with role play? Continue reading →

I Don’t Care I Do What I Want

I Do What I Want_001

Sock and hose together? I don’t care I do what I want! Bag doesn’t match shoes? I don’t care, I do what I want!

I had Eric Cartman in my mind as I put on my gacha prizes from The Chapter Four, yeah I’m still going on about that. I like taking all the gacha things and then wearing them all together. It’s like a sport to me. Continue reading →

Cajsa Fast Five: May 9th

Fast Five There’s a solar eclipse happening right now, you can watch it here. And coming out of the eclipse of depression, Allie of Hyperbole and a Half has a new post – the first in many months. While I do not suffer from depression, my late brother-in-law did. Her story explains it so well, something those of us on the outside need to understand. It is easy to offer platitudes and advice, but however well-meaning, they are hard to take. If you read nothing else, take some time for that post (As always, she writes with humor.) to get some insight on something I hope  you never experience. Continue reading →

Both Sides Now

may08_001

Flowey has a fun and whimsical set of clouds at Collabor88 – rain or shine – Flutter Memel looks at clouds from Both Sides Now.

Bows and flows of angel hair
And ice cream castles in the air
And feather canyons everywhere
I’ve looked at clouds that way

may08_007

They rain and snow on everyone.

But now they only block the sun
They rain and snow on everyone
So many things I would have done
But clouds got in my way
