And Suddenly It’s Monday Morning

Gidge was so busy all weekend, COLLABOR88 plus the Arcade plus yard sales plus the normal blogger girl stuff, shopping, standing on a pose stand, shopping, standing on a pose stand, a wee bit of entertaining, well, she got tired and passed out in her new bed. I got this one at a yard sale and it’s cute, it’s at THE ARCADE. I’m not entire sure it’s me, but it’s a fun prop. Continue reading

The One Where I Ride a Very Surprised Horse

Well, it said if I joined the group I got a free horse. I was probably wrong to presume it would be as nice as the horses other people were riding. But, I was whisked back to 2008 with this beauty.

Also my world became lag hell while riding her, and had to abandon.

I wasn’t really dressed to ride though, actually. So it’s just as well. Continue reading

Belleza has a ton of tones and looks in their new skin LEILA out at the Arcade this round and I’m excited to bring you a preview. This is LEILA 6 and she’s COMMON – not rare, but man I love the lipstick.

Fashion Bloggers Don’t Read: All About ALICE PROJECT HAIR

Snapshot_258

So, I was slapping together my morning blog post today and I said, self, something is wrong – THIS IS DEMO HAIR! My friend Alice had sent me some hairs cuz we’re friends and I’m a blogger and she makes hair and it’s a symbiotic relationship and anyway don’t even bother her about free hair I can’t get you hair but anyway after I realized I had on a demo, I went to Plurk.

Gidge :

Nomine Oculi

I was at a party recently and folks were talking about eyes that they liked. The usual names came up, and I mentioned I liked the new release from NOMINE.

The record scratched and everyone was like, NOMINE? Whut? Is it 2007?

Funny true story. Nomine is still around, the creator Munchflower doesn’t release a lot but when she does, she’s got the experience of a veteran to release a beautiful quality item that is definitely worth having. This time, it happens to be eyes. Continue reading

Several Shoots Later

I shot this outfit five times. Five different times. This is a grand departure from my old self, wherein I would say TO HELL WITH THIS OUTFIT and delete it all and you’d never see it.

I used to feel like, it just wasn’t meant to be, if the pics were all shite. But that’s more Presbyterian than I care to be, so I kept going back and back and back to the studio, or that studio, or this location, or at my house, until eventually I even made myself a projector and played with it until I came up with these pics.

Sweeter Than Honey

jul05_004

What is sweeter than honey? How about a dress that can be worn 248,832 different ways. The Nautica dress from Miel (Honey by any other name would taste as sweet.) There are 12 colors (n) and 5 options (r), order is important and colors can be used more than once. You can test it yourself. You can even type in the colors and generate a list of all the combinations.  However the specifics really don’t matter, do they, with this deliciously casual dress with all the right details from the gorgeous front pleat to the rope shoulder straps.
