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

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
I am all dressed up for a visit to Candyland – even my shoes are called Candy. I started with the delightful and whimsical dress from The Closet. I love the lovely black frippery around the shoulders, the black and white waist and the lovely ribbon-weave candy-colored skirt.

Holiday Party Season is rolling down the pike. Have you started shopping? HAVE YOU? Good grief….me neither – not REALLY. I need to get it together. Fast, because with Halloween rolling up uber-fast you KNOW how quickly all the big fun events start happening. Luckily for me, I do happen to know a couple of really top notch designers who help keep me from dressing like a total slag.
I am speaking of the lovely Kunglers of course. If you haven’t been to their store yet – check’em out. Besides offering a quality freebie on a regular basis, they have a really tremendous RANGE of designs. Looking for something casual and relaxed? They’ve got this. Or some really lovely lingerie that won’t break your bank? Try this. Something really femme but dateworthy? Literally – the range is there, from very fancy evening event to causal romp with friends…….which is why I always am so excited to see what is new from Kunglers. Continue reading
Aerial Assault at the Carnival of Doom
We put up our tent on a dark
Green knoll, outside of town by
The train tracks and a seagull dump
Topping the bill was Horse Face Ethel
And her ‘Marvellous Pigs In Satin’
We pounded our stakes in the ground
All powder brown
And the branches spread like scary
Fingers reaching
We were in a pasture outside Kankakee

It was at a 4th Friday Art Exhibit I hosted once at Vicious (yeah I used to make them do cultural stuff ….no shooting the artistes)…that I was exposed to the vibrant, kinetic artwork of Elros Tuominen. Cajsa was friends and had suggested his sculptures for our next event, so I said sure no problem and we were set.
You’ve seen SL art. A lot of it is shite. But when you run into something different, something that makes you say…..Oooooo I like this…..then you’ve hit on it. Whatever IT is. Continue reading

I’m dogmatic about my eyes. I never change them. It’s to the point where I often think I’ll forget to list them in the fashion details – FNKY – PURPLE RAIN. Yet when I recently picked up this festive limited edition skin at Juicy it came packed full of these iridescent eyes with butterfly pupils.
A soft pink make up with delicate details for a girly girl seemed just my sort of skin to have hanging in the closet and I loved the idea of there being only a limited number of them being sold. I immediately knew what carnival of pink I’d drape over this new skin. Continue reading

I have worn a lot of things in SL – some of them quite silly. But I have never, EVER, worn a dress made of pure light.
Until now.
Swatched in rings of glowing neon and a swirling translucent skirt and top, you might think this piece came form an artiste turned dress designer. Continue reading

In my newbie-hood days, I was addicted to shopping but also had more than a bit of shopping ADD. I couldn’t always remember WHAT I had purchased. A lot of this I attribute to my former crew who advised me to fill up my inventory with worthless garbage – so that the few GOOD pieces I had, I couldn’t remember their names – or where I got them, etc.
Consequently, I bought some of the same things more than once.
This hair from Cake, and this dress from the former X3D now Digit Darkes is a great example. Continue reading

I heard from a couple of different places that Honey, not a new designer but in a new shop, was a having a sale the other day and so I popped over to check it out. After having been on SUCH A cocktail dress binge lately, I’ve been itching to let the more casual, old-school Gidge out of the closet for a bit. Yesterday it was men’s clothes but today I had to slip back into something a little more girly. The designs at Honey are what I think we’re all coming to expect, lotsa nice details – fun fresh color combinations and realisitic fashions.
Because while I appreciate the Bird Cage dress, I’m not wearing it OUT.
I’m also indulging in a bit of nostalgia here. This hair, from CAKE, was my first nonsystem hair. My friend Queen bought it for me about a year and a half ago, and then I went systemically through their store over the next few months buying every single STYLE of this color. Now just a note about this hair. You can see the clip there? Ok, as a new player, been playing like oh 20 minutes, I was whisked around SL to upgrade the AV and this hair was one of the purchases. Those hair clips says SCRIPTED. I never, ever, in a year and a half ever bothered to check what that meant. I thought it was referring to the hair being flexi frankly………and then when I got dressed…..I touched them. Continue reading
