Party Perfect

4 Replies

I went to Codebastard Redgrave’s surprise party last night for her second Rez Day and had a great time. The DJ, Madama Maracas, was new to me and I thought she was fabulous. She did an amazing job of incorporating a wide variety of music and finding some outstanding songs to suit the occasion – frequently inserting a song that slyly commented on or reflected the somewhat ribald and risque chat in the room. I had a great time…and part of that great time was enhanced by planning ahead and choosing a party perfect dress like this one from Baiastice. You see, I knew that anyone as well-loved as Codie would not have only 15 to 20 people at her party, that there would be a crowd that would stretch our computers to the max…so I wanted to dress for a party while keeping my ARC down.

Don't Fence Me In

Leave a reply

I would rewrite that old, old song to say “Give me layers, lots of layers, and the ability to mod, don’t fence me in.” Take for example, this gorgeous cardigan. The wonderful Fair Isle knit and the lovely button details make me love it, but it’s a grumpy sort of love because it’s no mod. However, I did work around that and managed to make it fit me after all, but only after getting frustrated enough to close up Second Life and go chop up soup fixings into teeny tiny pieces.

Antarctic Dreams

4 Replies

Who is going to a traditional Black & White ball for New Year’s Eve?  It seems like nearly all the women dress in white – a nod to the season’s frosty weather. Many of the dresses have snowflakes and crystals to accentuate the seasonal motif. This year, though, you can have the snowflakes and stand out from the crowd in this black snowflake dress from Sascha’s Designs called Antarctica.

Rangoon or It Doesn't Hurt to Ask

Leave a reply

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.

Armoire Diversity Challenge from Analu

2 Replies

I am still working away at the Dress Me Up challenge but this is my attempt to see if I can walk and chew gum at the same time – or in other words, try to tackle a second challenge while still working on a first. So, dressing like a man?  Well, I was looking for Ztique for a completely unrelated reason and happened to spy one of the many ubiquitous Rfyre outlets on this sim where Ztique most decidely was not located. Bad Search!!!

I know Rfyre has some lovely clothes for men….so I made like a bee and buzzed over.

Last Christmas, I Gave You My Heart – An It's Only Fashion PSA

……but the very next day,  you gave it away.

This year, to save me from tears – I’ll give it someone special.

-George Michael

First off, let this be a lesson to all of us, don’t pick up guys on Christmas. That’s just tacky. And I think we all know that “heart” is a metaphor – so now, let’s all agree together. No picking up guys on Christmas. It only ends in heartache and breathy songs of heartbreak. Continue reading →

Bare Rose Challenge #5

Leave a reply

More Bare Rose love – and this time because it’s a great place for coats and jackets – lovely open jackets that might be part of some complicated costume but on its own makes a lovely open jacket to wear over some seperates.This jacket is from Cross Bones Girl and the rest of the outfit is not something I am likely to wear, but I could see what a gem this jacket was right away.

If You Want To Destroy My Sweater….Pull This Thread….

Of course…….shortly AFTER you pull that thread I’ll have to kick your ass. Nothing personal………but I hate people who do that. 🙂

I’ve been seeing ads for different pieces at REALE come across the feeds for a while, but my machine keeps acting up lately when I try to TP so I’ve been going less far off places. I tried to shop their twice, crashing both times once the store rezzed properly. It’s like some sick joke…….Oh Look at that – that’s cute CRASH! Continue reading →

Pret a Porter Makes me a Kevin Bacon Game Champion

posted by Gidge Uriza

I’m a Kevin Bacon game geek. Yes, I still like to play it. It makes me laugh, because I always have my “ringer” I like to pull out – to wow others with my incredible geek-i-tude. Why, you might ask me, am I sharing this with you – wearing this gorgeous dress by Clio – Pret a Porter?

I guess I just finally decided that I should have some Holiday Spirit and let all of you achieve this same level of dork at parties. Actually, most people are usually fairly stunned when you pull this one off because it’s so obscure.

If you don’t know – the Kevin Bacon Game works like this – all movie stars can be linked to Kevin Bacon in less than 6 degrees of separation.  So you say “Link Madonna to Kevin Bacon” and I say “Oh that’s EASY! Madonna was in Vision Quest with Forest Whitaker who was in The Air I Breathe with KEVIN BACON”. Continue reading →

Foggy Bottom

2 Replies

I suppose since this was not shot at the State Department, Foggy Bottom is a bad name, but it’s what comes to mind. This is actually shot right behind MDR’s studio on our new sim in the Autumn section. In Autumn you can find corn and wheat fields, a wooded forest of fall color or this spooky, scary little bit of mossy, foggy bottomland which I thought a perfect setting for a dress called the Burton dress. From True La La, the Burton dress is suitably macabre for the setting.
