What To Wear To a Theme Party?

posted by Gidge Uriza

Our second computer is fritzed, so I couldn’t bring Silo along as my date for the Second Style Sim opening theme party which was replete with gorgeous couples in costumes of famous lovers.

But I needed to go, even just for a while. I was not only excited about the Sim opening but you know, I WORK FOR THEM, so it would’ve been really inappropriate to miss – but – WHAT TO FLIPPING WEAR? Continue reading →

Do The White Goths Only Stab Others For Good?

Posted by Gidge Uriza

You know the saying, EMO PEOPLE WANT TO STAB THEMSELVES, GOTH PEOPLE WANT TO STAB YOU – well after I got the latest White Goth – Sophie release from BLUEBLOOD this got me wondering. What are the White Goth’s up to? Reading Martha Stewart instead of Keats? Smoking E- Cigs instead of clove?

The Sophie dress comes in several pastel accented colors with a gorgeous white theme all over,including gloves and hose. Continue reading →

I Used To Rule The World…..

…..seas would RISE when I gave the word……

I know, lotsa fashionistas have blogged this dress. But it’s totally festive and I wanted to wear it too. I just had this whole pirate thing going on the second I saw it. So I went exploring and found this nutty build of pirate ships. And a guy apparently role playing a hanged man behind me. (Yeah that’s a person not a part of build). Continue reading →

Exile's ZOE – The Gauntlet Has Been Thrown Down

I got an IM from Winter challenging me to style this hair – a new release at EXILE.

I expected a lot more CRAZY out of the style than I got when I TP’d into EXILE. It’s some big hair, with dreads and big ringlets and I liked it immediately because it’s long hair.

And I LOVE long hair. I also love the shades of blonde Kavar uses so that was pretty much a WIN as far as I was concerned. What I HATE is to SHOOT long hair.

I find that I don’t think twice about intersections and other annoying bits of hair here and there when I WEAR long hair, we all know it happens – just like we know that the texture can stretch and distort over ya bootie if you don’t wear a skirtshape with your system skirts. Continue reading →

Digit Darkes Reminds Me WHY She Was My First Fashion Love

posted by Gidge Uriza

When I was new on the grid, I stumbled into a store that had clothes that weren’t cheap (to an unemployed girl they weren’t). But – they were spectacular. And they were vastly different and BETTER than anything my blingtard friends were sporting.  I immediately fell in love with the possibilities of fashion here on the grid.

That store was then called X3D – and you know it now as Digit Darkes.

I’m wearing a new release from her that she put on sale the other day – the Andreas Dress, in Copper. Like all of her work- it’s stunning, front AND back. Continue reading →

Fall Weather is Here – Get Out Your Tights!

Posted by Gidge Uriza

Since I never throw anything away, I had these excellent ribbed tights that were part of a funky disco outfit from Pixel Dolls last year. When I saw this sweater/skirt set at Honey Soul – I knew they’d make a great fall look. Continue reading →

DIY Costumes: Shop Your Inventory

I happened to be logged in during the day last Sunday and our friend Maht was doing a Halloween set from THE VELVET – his usual Sunday spot. I didn’t have a lot of notice before his set started and it was a Halloween party so I fretted for a bit about who to be.

Then it occurred to me that this old Free Speerit hair ELISE has a banana clip.

Putting together the rest of Sarah Palin was just TOO easy. Glasses from Prim Optic and a conservative dress from Little Rebel (I MISS LITTLE REBEL) and VOILA I was done. Continue reading →

Casual Friday 8.14.09

posted by Gidge Uriza

My bedroom is littered with goodies from the Designer Showcase Network – some from old favorites and some completely new to me. I love getting something handed to me from a creator that I’ve never shopped at before just because I have the opportunity to learn a new place!

And even simple items like tanks or shorts tell me a lot. Continue reading →
