Zoe: Collaboration

I love it when Second Life designers decide to work on something together. It’s a testament to the openness of SL Fashion Community and to the freindships and connections people make though Second Life and through their mutual love of fashion. In this case, Leah McCullough of Naive and Mouse Mimistrobell of Dark Mouse produced completementary dresses and jewelry.

Dressing2Shop

I think when you’re shopping you should dress well enough that you don’t feel all pathetic and underdressed and end up buying out the store. However, I do think shopping in a ball gown is lagtastic. I like to dress the way I would in RL, comfortably in chic casual clothing with some layering in case the air condition is on. This little mashup of items form Anuenue, Kookie and Canimal is just right. The shoes, by the way, are from Kalnins and it’s worth it to make a size 11 foot copy of your shape and toss in the folder with the shoes for easy dressing.

Back To Work? Really?

posted by Gidge Uriza

It’s alleged that it is Monday Morning and that this means I need to put on a suit and act like a grownup and not some pixel fashionista.

Sigh. Who’s plan IS this anway? I didn’t vote for it. I should send out a memo….

Or just stay swaddled in another super fun production by June Dion’s BARE ROSE. Bare Rose as we all know is great for boxing up several versions of their clothes and for often giving you accessories (FTW) and goodies to complete your look.

TOY SHOP GIRL is no exception.

Including the jeans, top, bag and all the other accessories (most of which are just images on the bag or the shirt which is good, you aren’t carting around a lot of prims and they are well done and look good). It also includes the glasses which Cajsa insists make me look like Sarah Palin.

A small part of me died upon hearing that. Continue reading

Walking on Sunshine

Last night Maht and I both retired from MDR Photo Studio – leaving our baby in the capable hands of Arcadia and Rhodesy and we celebrated with a lovely party. I made a clear platform (one I used for shooting in the past) at 200 feet so it’s right in the middle of the clouds and we danced on air. Actually, Achariya took some really great photos. Since it was in the clouds, I didn’t want lots of flexis to disappear depending on my angle, so I chose this lovely new dress from Paper Couture. Dressy, great for dancing and no long flowing skirt to disappear.

Want to feel like a fairy princess?

Okay, there’s two sure-fire ways to feel like a fairy princess. First, you could prick your finger, sleep for 100 years and wake to a kiss by some handsome prince who’s 100 years younger than you and then be called a Cougar Princess all your life…or you could go the easy route and TP over to Evie’s Closet and buy yourself one of her stunning gowns. I recommend the latter, it’s faster.

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

Casual Friday in Purple

This is the perfect outfit for the weather today – a bit warm a bit brisk, sunny – cloudy, oh damn we can’t make up our minds weather. But no rain! In a city that gets over 200 days of rain, that’s a plus. If I could, I would natter on all day about the purple cardigan from Kurotsubaki. It’s a lovely wrap sweater replete with multiple prim attachments – including the lovely bell sleeves. What’s unique is that there are 4 prims for the flowy bits – 2 for each attachment point so you can choose exactly how full and flowy you want it to be. I chose the less full options just because that seemed more casual.

Sundays Are For Exploring & a Photo Tip

Sundays are probably when I spend the most time just playing on the grid, exploring sims and generally just having a lot of fun before heading over to the Velvet for Maht’s DJ session that I know will always be a fun and interesting set. This Sunday’s set featured singers and bands from Chicago – and it was a revelation how much great music comes from the Windy City considering he didn’t play any blues.  I dressed in a hurry for the session, but love the look that came together. Afterwards, I headed out to Sasy Scarborough’s new digs:
