Alchemy is one of those great stores that I like to reach to for “party dresses”.
Yes, like I’m 10 years old, I like to have specific “party dresses”. Continue reading

Pretty in Pinky
Posted by Gidge Uriza – FYI this is a review – but I can’t get the review logo to post!
When rifling through my new PXL Linda skins I found, to my delight, at the bottom of the group some skins with fun pink and purple tones. I immediately wanted to wear something light and summery and pulled out this dress from BINGO that I forgot I picked up. Continue reading
Dance the night away!
Sunday afternoon Maht did one of his best sets ever at the Velvet – a homage to the great songwriters and I was ready to dance because I was eager to try out the new dances from Akeyo in a group. I prefer dances that don’t make the men dancing with me on my HUD look silly, and these Akeyo dances really fit the bill. Animazoo has some great ones, too, by the way. No disrespect to Sine Wave, which also produces some good club dances. It’s just that I cringe when I see a guy doing OMG. What can I say? Anyway, eager to dance, I decided a nice miniskirt and tights would suit and sure enough they did.
Falling Leaves
Leaving the aviary for a bit, Paper Couture’s Falling Leaves dress gets its inspiration from the colors of autumn and the brilliant colors of the dying leaves. This is a lovely day dress and beautifully constructed yet again.

……When I am so CLEARLY dressed for the ball!
Yes ladies, I’m totally stricken with the plague. I’ve neglected all my blogging responsibilities in favor of some serious sleep, and pillow drooling. Surprisingly, the pillow drooling has not been as therapeutic as I’d imagined.
But I digress……. Continue reading
From Burlesque to Ballroom
Just as I was finishing the burlesque shoot, I got an urgent IM from a customer and really, really did not feel like doing a shoot with a fan tail. So, I changed my hair real quick and tossed on this lovely gown – over dressed a bit for the occasion, I know – and was there in less than a minute. Continue reading
Burlesquerie
It’s purely coincidence that the outfit I am proposing for Halloween fun today is completely free. This outfit is not an editorial comment on the Freebie debate. In fact, I shot the photos on the 22nd, a day before the Great Freebie Debate in which I agreed with everyone. I like freebies, I sometimes blog them. I also think that there’s a freebie glut right now. Perhaps there will be a natural market correction. I also agree some shoppers are just dang rude, but do not believe the freebies make them rude. Some people find anonymity liberating and become more creative, more open and more alive. Some find anonymity liberating and turn into creatures with the manners of a weasel, the morals of a polecat and the kindness of a badger. It’s not the freebies that make them that way; it’s their true nature. But now, back to fashion.

I have traditionally worn the Kallos lingerie set with the Digit Darkes Tulle skirt over the top. But I thought there might be a revolution if I wore one more corset that way. Instead, I thought I’d show you this lovely piece on it’s own. Continue reading
Cross My Heart
posted by Gidge Uriza
Jewelry with religious tones is always fascinating to me, be it an Ankh or a Cross or something from the east (okay technically the ankh is from EAST of me but I’m thinking EAST of that). I like especially like wearing Celtic Crosses (that’s the Irish in me) and this stylized Celtic set from Earthstones is a great modern take on an intricate traditional style. Featuring earrings and a necklace in a variety of tones this casual set makes a very subtle stylish addition to this casual outfit. Continue reading
No Pixels Were Harmed in the…
One of my favorite groups is the Swedish group Hedningarna and one of my favorite songs of theirs is Räven. You can hear a clip here. I thought if it as soon as I put on the wonderfully luxuorious red fox jacket from bijou as the name translates to Fox Woman. The song is quite ferocious, so I left off the lower half of the fur coat, making it a jacket to wear with leather pants – much fiercer that way, I thought.
Incidentally, this texture is also in the free texture pack I mentioned in the previous post.
