P is for Perla in Donna Flora A to Z

And Perla just happens to be my FAVORITE dress from Donna Flora’s collection! It can be worn as a casual day dress with the hat or dressed up and worn out for a night on the town with some fancy jewelry. I chose the casual look today, as it IS Sunday.

Week 5 – Patina

I did an inventory search and came up with this dress from e! which seemed to be the perfect match for Patina!  I also downloaded the newest Firestorm viewer and low and behold I could shoot SHADOWS and not lag!!!!

You have no idea how happy that makes me… I have an ATI graphics card and it seems SL and shadows do not like ATI cards… until now (shhhh don’t tell anyone lest they take it away).

Week 3 – Electric Indigo

Leave a reply

Short and sweet cause I’m going to try to catch up today….
Electric Indigo was a sweater that was custom made for me by my friend Gideon Styles, owner and creator of *G* Styles Fashion & Design.  He has a great line of shirts for men and women.

Apparently I’m going through a black , red and white phase. I’ve noticed that everything I’ve purchased lately has fallen into those three color categories. (can white be called a color since it’s the lack of color? I think I remember that from art 101) Anyways, i was browsing the marketplace (because I rarely shop in world anymore) and I came upon this lovely clockwork collar from Hebenon Vial. It was lust as first site. It is color changable so you can match it with several outfits. I paired it with this super cute off the shoulder sweater from Izzy’s.

Y&R Goodness

It’s been a week since I shot these pictures, but I have been under the weather. I wonder where that phrase comes from. Does it have to do with people feeling achey when the barometer falls? I saw someone suggesting it had to do with being seasick and going down below decks. That doesn’t quite make sense to me since often people who are seasick feel better with the fresh air. Another suggests it has to do with being on the weather side of the ship – the side getting hit by a storm. That makes a little more sense. However, if top of the morning is supposed to be good, I guess under the weather must be bad, right? Well, that’s how I have been feeling and so have no been online much at all. I did, though, want to get this posted. It’s an adorable top and skirt I picked up at Y&R while I was shooting there with their adorable bears. The top has a prim to make it into a more baby-doll style, but I liked it better without.

Superman sucks!!!

Well, Banksy docet 😛

Superman Sucks^^

Ok, folks, this post has nothing to do with Superman, but I couldn’t help mentioning him after taking a few snaps in the Diapop shop which got one of its walls decorated with that famous Banksy’s graffiti.
In my humble opinion, it’s a great deco choice made by Dianne Peccable – owner and designer of Diapop – and I’m not surprised because she has taste. I know Dianne since long time, she’s such a lovely person, a sweet friend and a talented designer, I always liked her creations and her 70’s/vintage/neo romantic/hippie/alternative/and more style…..oh well, I would just call it Dianne’s style.

The Black Betty dress is her latest creation and I’ve been wearing it quite a lot lately after deciding (it didn’t take me much time!) what hair, shoes, accessories could go well with it.

Four Years and Counting, Some Thank You's

It’s Only Fashion will be four years old tomorrow. It all began with this post with me wearing a dress I had worn for Gidge’s New Year’s Eve Party. I didn’t know what I was doing and had no idea how to get someone to actually read my blog. I posted a few times. They were perfectly lovely posts that nobody every read or saw because I had no idea how people got other people to look at their blogs. That is one of the reasons Gidge and I did the Marketing tutorials for Bloggers. There was the World of SL feed but new people were not being added, so I floundered. Then, in April, I heard about IHeartSL – the new feed that welcomed newcomers and inexperienced bloggers with open arms, giving them access and exposure. There are many other feeds and they each have their own particular personality, but IHeartSL will always be the one that opened the door for me. I am sure I am not the only blogger whose entree to the blogging world was facilitated by IHeartSL.  And of course, Gogo has been free with lots of good advice and help over the years as well.  Her generous help to new bloggers has made the community much larger and more open.  Continue reading →
