Another Glance

There’s a new shopping sim in town. Now I know that happens all the time, but this one has a great build and a fabulous combination of familiar and popular brands with new and unknown to me fresh discoveries. Of course, I am not so conceited as to think that everything new to me at the new Glance Style sim is new to everyone – but nonetheless, I love the combination of new and established – of discovery and reliability.  The sim opens today at 1 PM and there are some opening day gifts such as the hair I am wearing – so do try to get there.

Etheria

I know Gidge blogged this lovely combination for Etheria just the other day, but I did choose a different color – going for Copper all the way. The dress is Fae from Lark and the coordinating jewelry from Dark Mouse is also called Fae.

The fun thing is that Faery Sola who knows a thing or two about fae, just sent me some new poses from her Studio Sidhe and I just had to shoot it all together. By the way, if you’re like me and don’t know much about faery realms beyond what’s in the Harry  Dresden books, I asked how to pronounce Sidhe and will let you all now that it’s pronounced like she which strikes me as really cool for some reason.

The Secret Garden

Happy Mood is such a delightful store. It’s hard to describe because it sells such a mix of items, but if you want one word,  it’s a store that sells whimsy. Whimsy is the defining word for the secret garden at Happy Mood – a multi-level mixture of culvert tunnels, trees, flowers and fun. When I put on this fun Vive La Bohome dress from Modern Gypsy, I immediately though of whimsy and that made me go to Happy Mood for the photos.

Casual Friday:Tea for Two – From BlueBlood

posted by Gidge Uriza

Ghanima at BlueBlood has taken to creating sets which are specifically designed for sharing, which I think is particularly festive.  For only 100L you get a set that is shaded to be unisex so you can dress up your guy friends like I have done to Deth up above. According to Ghanima’s note, she specifically shaded the clothes so that the boys don’t have boobies and the girls don’t get a package so you know, that’s  a WIN! Continue reading

Minerva

posted by Gidge Uriza

I received the Minerva Dress and the coordinating Porto Nova jewelry from Indyra Originals a while back and I have to confess that, like the day I got my FIRST ever review copies – I jumped out and did a dance around the room.

Why? Well………because like Digit Darkes, Indyra Originals was one of my first loves. It was a store I couldn’t afford and the store I got my FIRST EXPENSIVE dress from, a gift from a friend I miss – to wear to a formal Mardi Gras event. I had actually SEEN it in Second Style Magazine and a bunch of my old friends were going to a big fancy event & poor Gidgy didn’t have anything to wear. My friend Jennifer Lemmon bought me the dress and after wandering around the store, I was addicted. Continue reading

Compact Beauty is a Reasonable Desire

posted by Gidge Uriza

I’ve probably bounced around on this cute compact pose set of Cajsa twenty times in various lingerie and get-ups, but it wasn’t until I got the Victorian Ventilated Corset set from Reasonable Desires that I’d found what I really wanted to wear on it.

I mean, ribbed hose? White cotton bloomers? Ah….I’m ironically sexy! Continue reading

Kicking Up Our Heels – Literally

posted by Gidge Uriza

Cajsa and I are completely fruity with glee over the release of the Cajsa Boots and Gidge Shoes from A-Bomb.  They have been out for sale for a wee bit, but with me being off line to have the baby, it took us some time to get together to shoot them in all their glory. Continue reading

It's Black, It's White……

posted by Gidge Uriza

Ok so just like Cajsa said below……..the options that Sascha Frangilli gives us in each item we buy from her are staggering, release after release.  As a blogger, I spend more time figuring out which pieces to wear, how to wear them together – or whether to just shoot them ALL than actually shooting.

I admit it, though – it’s kinda fun.

The flexibility with the variety of styles of skirts offered, two pair of gloves, a bolero jacket option etc means that although Cajsa and I each blogged this today, neither of us are sporting it exactly the same way which I really like. 

This is a gorgeous spring outfit in either black or white – and as I look at the hat I’m reminded that the Kentucky Derby is coming up……..girls got your Derby Hats ready yet?

Sometimes I'm Redonkulous

Yes. Those are pink marabou bunny slippers that I am wearing with this smexy ensemble from Seldom Blue.

Why?

I don’t really know.

I’m short of boudoir slippers. I NEED BOUDOIR SLIPPERS SOMEONE MAKE SOME PLEASE. I have a  great pair from Sn@tch and another great pair from a store that doesn’t exist………and well.

A high maintenance girl like me needs Boudoir slippers. Continue reading

Hair-tastic

Oh yes, this is hair that makes you say ZOMG! But first, let’s pay some proper attention to the chicness that is the new Keyn outfit from Baiastice. Sold as separates, the top and bottoms come in coordinated colors, but nothing stops you from mixing them up. The bottoms are fun little gaucho style pants and the blouse is a chic assymetrical top with a sheer, loose overshirt that combines different patterns of black and & silver or white. It takes a casual form of clothing up a notch with the use of fabric in the top.
