Quick Look -Across The Universe


Posted by Gidge Uriza

I had to share the latest release from Foxy Moron before I ran off to do the real life shuffle. Decked out in nebula colors – IRIS in Sunset from Foxy Moron reminded me of both flight and an elegant ball. I added the rather disheveled Wish 2 hair from Cake – and told Cajsa I was fleeing my date. 🙂 Continue reading

The Song

I am in love with that glorious line of rhinestones running down the back of the heel of these Dare pumps from Shiny Things.

Purple haze all in my brain
Lately things just dont seem the same
Actin funny, but I don’t know why
scuse me while I kiss the sky

Costume Cutie: Betty Grable

Betty Grable was the consummate pin-up. I read once that her legs were insured by Lloyds of London for a million dollars each – and that was back when a millionnaires were few and far between and there were no billionaires. Ingenue has a delightful Betty Grable costume with the suit from the famous pin-up and also that same animation. Now, what woman could resist being the world’s most famous pin-up, even if only for an evening?

Orange You Glad It's October?

posted by Gidge Uriza

The month of my birth, the month of All Hallows Eve, the true beginning of fall in my mind all pull me toward shades of orange and brown every year. Both in RL (sitting here right now decked out in BROWN) and SL the palette of my wardrobe takes a shift this time of year.

Okay okay, NOT this dramatic. Continue reading

Show Some Skin

posted by Gidge Uriza

Cajsa warned you I had new skins! 🙂 There isn’t a pixel day that goes by that I don’t THANK GOD for my now SL Dead Blingtard friends who only ever took me shopping at X3D (now Digit Darkes).  Because if it weren’t for them, I wouldn’t be wearing some absolutely gorgeous, radiant new skins.

I was trying to get off to bed last night when word of the hunt at Diversity came and I braved another hour online (despite it being day two at a new job!) to make the best of it! The new skins are simply radiant and the variety of make up options are truly myriad. Continue reading

Charlie!

Okay, so I am a terrible skin reviewer.  For one, I care more about how the face and the makeup look than the shape of the tuches. I must confess, though, that the new Aleri Darkes Virgo skin has a great tuches which I noticed while shooting Gidge last night for an upcoming post on some lingerie. Secondly, who ever heard of talking about skin with a fake mustache and eyebrows? oh well…

I feel pretty, oh so pretty

Maria sang that song in West Side Story and it’s exactly how I felt when I put on this dress and one of the lovely new Aleri Darkes skins.  Now you skin lovers out there, you have the opportunity to find all sorts of lovely skins during the current hunt at her store. You just need to find the cookies – and this is what they look like.

Ruby

Is there anything sexier that a form-fitting, softly-flowing jersey sheath with a pencil skirt? This black and white print sheath makes a good argument that there is not.  Sexy, chic and simple, who could ask for more that this gorgeous dress from Little Rebel. It makes me think of the lyrics from Ruby.

Youve painted up your lips and rolled and curled your tinted hair.
Ruby are you contemplating going out somewhere?
The shadow on the wall tells me the sun is going down –
Oh Ruby, don’t take your love to town.

Harmony and Understanding

Harmony and understanding are easy to find when you go to The Refuge and Expansion. I was lucky enough to go their the other day and catch a live concert at the farm house by a marvelous classical guitarist. And lucky enough to be wearing yet another Hair Fair treasure – this time from Damselfly.
