I feel pretty!
Oh, so pretty!
Pretty and witty and bright!
Now who would not feel pretty in this marvelous jeweled brocade gown from Mimikri. This gown takes opulence to the royal vault and comes out wearing the crown jewels. To add to its lustre, it comes with multiple options for wearing, including the fabulous sheath shown in this picture. The pastel gloves from Fleur look great too.
There are five flowers in Modern Gypsy’s Winter Garden. In this picture I am wearing the Rose, another exuberant bouquet of dancing prims.
You can contrast that to the more structured architecture of Asian Lily whose exuberance is expressed through the riotous fabric texture.

Wandering the grid, I’m prone to finding leftover hunt items sitting about. This is especially true around holidays, and I know how it can be. I once left Easter Eggs sitting out around Vicious Island for over a month – because I forgot where I hid them + Cajsa and I were really busy hosting two HUGE themed events per week.
I am usually terribly delighted when I find these things though, as my schedule rarely permits me to participate in “hunts” on a regular basis. Continue reading
So I am going to go overboard and drive you mad with Modern Gypsy posts, I am that excited. This post will look at two of Micah Kanto’s designs for Modern Gypsy, Babybreath and Genko. You mission, should you choose to accept it, is to determine which is which.
A friend asked me to TP to Stiletto Moody to see if I could. While standing near the TP point, explaining that it was open only to group members because of the 40% off sale I spotted an elegantly styled and lovely woman. Her name is Staci Bernard and after I admired her lovely outfit, she was kind enough to give me the landmark and introduce me to Modern Gypsy where I found the gorgeous jacket she wore as well as this coat and oh-so much more.
Just in time for the holidays and New Year’s, Zaara has released her most beautifully alluring gown yet. Releasing it in red, gold and black, she gives you choices for the coming New Year’s parties, including black for a black and white ball. However, only the colors give it a seasonal appeal, so you can wear it all year round. She also put this glorious jewelry out as a gift in the anteroom of her store.
Aemilia Case lifted me out of my pity party at being snowed in and unable to spend Christmas with friends as planned by asking for volunteers for a photo shoot. Considering I had been actually contemplating watching an NCIS marathon, I jumped at the chance to be on the other side of the camera. For the shoot I was given this Mein Herr outfit by Shai Delacroix of Casa del Shai that she is releasing today.
Yes, Sally Bowles!!! and to make it even more fun, all of us were posing on the cabaret chairs made by Luth Brodie of Reel Expression. She will be releasing two 12-pose chairs and 12 standing poses so all of us can release our inner Sally and strut the stage and was kind enough to gift all of us posers with a set.
When this delightful holiday burlesque outfit from Reasonable Desires was dropped on me, I knew it would be perfect with Bax Coen’s ankle boots. They are made for each other.

I look at a lot of Harajuku in RL, the style fascinates me. So when I was challeged to do a Harajuku piece by Candy Lemmon, I immediately knew I wanted a big fluffy coat thing – I’ve been seeing them in mags slapped over the mismatched plaids and heavy handed cloth worn by the youth culture that defines Harajuku.
A big old silly fur coat. If I could find one in fun colors that’d be even better, but when I ran into this WHITE one, which was exactly what I wanted, a floofy white fur coat from Ookami Ningen I KNEW KNEW KNEW what I wanted to do.
I wanted to go Ice Skating. Continue reading
I was surprised by a lovely trio of folders from Roslin Petion of Fleur with the stockings, sweater and dress you see here. I almost jumped up and down for joy when I put the dress on because I had a very similar one when I was a kid – a lovely wool jumper that my mother made and that I would have worn forever if puberty and breasts had not intervened.
