Indy 500 Fever

posted by Gidge Urza

Indy 500 fever will be gripping the greater Indianapolis area as the parties and events leading up to the big race are in FULL Swing by now. (ah, I do miss it). Party hopping on Friday before the race used to be a full-on social requirement and the only requirement for being fashionable, was to ROCK the black and white.

I was wandering around Retrology just seeing what I needed and still didn’t have and ambled into this really cute set from Encore. Meeting all the requirements of casual, cute and black & white I decided it was a win for Friday festivities! Continue reading

A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To the Photo Shoot

posted by Gidge Uriza

It started out simply enough. I’m in World. Cajsa is in World. One of us says “Wanna shoot?” – the other agrees and she TPs me into her photo studio at MDR. I land in the sphere with her and wander out to the platform to wait for the world to rezz a bit.

Ya with me?

I spin around and take a look at the cute outfit she’s got on, sweet little casual skirt look with a denim jacket.  Myself I was wearing my “PRIM WHORE” shirt from Weirdiculous that I got for my first REZZ day and had my title all planned out “KNOW THYSELF”……..

I had planned to be witty. Continue reading

Callie Cline Made Me a Cowgirl

posted by Gidge Uriza

Green leopard boots with color change gems? Are you serious? I don’t understand why these didn’t give me a CALL to come over and fetch them. These boots were one of my MANY green pickups during Callie’s big green L$99 sale – and then I added the jeans when she had her big L$10 sale right after.

She’s had some amazing sales lately. Continue reading

My Love of Frick May Be Naive…..

Posted by Gidge Uriza

….but I love her work.

I love that I can roll over to Frick whenever I’m in the mood for something nutty or different, and pick up one of her fantasy skins – and do so for very few lindens. I had to have this retro pinup skin as it’s called Brigitte – and Gidge’s RL name is the same.

I’m slowly on a quest to acquire things with my name to make an “ALL ABOUT ME” outift. ”

Fricka’s prices are good and her variety is such a treat. I do love all the fun skins. I usually take new player friends over there to pick up “something different” when they have been on the grid a few days. They ALL love it. Continue reading

Keeping Warm

Keeping warm during these final days of winter is proving to be a joy as I work together pretties from various places.  This entire outfit started out with Digit Darkes VIPER Capris. Do you think Digit killed and skinned this viper herself? Continue reading

Sn@tch It Up!

posted by Gidge Uriza

When the big stores have their wonderful, huge markdown sales, I always like to take advantage of stocking up on basics. Sn@tch is one of my favorite stores for picking up different things that make great additions to any outfit. I can’t believe, however, that I had never noticed this sweater, scarf comb that I picked up during their L$50 sale. Nutty! Continue reading

Casual Friday:Mix and Match

posted by Gidge Uriza

Today is a great example of how you should always look at your group gifts/freebie gifts even if you think they are not completely your cup of tea. I received Jaycie from Dollyrock as a group gift, and it’s a little dress, halter top, glitch pants, shortie cutie skirt.

I don’t wear a lot of this style, and my initial reaction was “Meh I don’t wear a lot of these, I’ll bag this.” And with an inventory aproaching 40k – I think this is something I need to do even more.  But I really LIKED the texture and thought the little halter was a cute summer top – so I kept it hoping inspiration would strike.

It did. Continue reading

Would You Like To Come To The Pants Party?

posted by Gidge Uriza

Okay, there isn’t a party in my pants. I just wanted to use that line.

I picked up an outfit to wear snowboarding, and kept wanting Cajsa to shoot it, but this was the third or 4th outfit I pulled out that I had saved and this STILL Wasn’t it.

Sigh. But It’s cute, isn’t it? Again from RAY SKIN, again a dollarbie I think this one may have been in the back of the store beyond the courtyard. It was actually NEAR the snowboards – thus my confusion. Continue reading
