Patriotica Part Seven – Hippie Hippie Shake

I had to admit I gave a giggle when I spotted this number on SLX. Not a total snicker, but OMG It’s got a scarf at the shoulder and bell bottom swishy sheer legs. Uber fun! It includes SKIN, and several different hair colors. I’m not wearing the skin, it was more pale than I care for but it was stars and stripes forever, I promise you that! It was a lot of fun but I opted to break out Hatchy’s USA FLAG skin instead. Continue reading

Stormy Weather

There’s nothing like a storm starting just as you leave the office to catch a bus home after working late into the evening to bring on a pity party. Fortunately, my outfit was just too cute for pity. Combining Honey Kitty and Schaudenfreude (just love that combination of words), I felt almost perky about the rain. I was wearing the brown Revenant outfit from Schaudenfreude, which makes up the skirt and corset here. The blouse was a lovely light brown, sleeveless top, but it had a skull pin at the neck. I just am not into skulls for clothing except maybe on Halloween, so I decided to wear another blouse. I had this delicious cream blouse from Honey Kitty in my closet – a blouse with loving attention to detail on the collar and cuff prims. Continue reading

Short & Sweet

Short and Sweet! Not just the dress, the post as well. I am working late in RL and taking a few minutes just to post this outfit and let you judge it for yourselves.  I went a little pared down on the accessories because the beaded collar straps eliminate the need and the advisability of a necklace. I went for the taupe shoes because taupe is undervalued when really, it’s a lovely and versatile color that needs more outings.  Continue reading

Patriotica Part 4 – New York State of Mind

Me and My Favorite Harbour Chick!

posted by Gidge Uriza

When I first conceived of doing this whole week in Red White and Blue, this was the outfit that inspired my silly notion. Every once in a while I sweep Onrez for freebie and dollarbie newness and this kyooot little number popped up a couple of weeks ago or more. From Awesome Designs you can still pick it up here for $L1.  You can probably also pick it up at the Awesome Designs maintsore In World however I haven’t popped over there to check. 🙂

I think my favorite thing on this outfit (besides the excellent vibrant color) are these fun stockings! Continue reading

Patriotica Part Three – The One Where Cajsa Tries to Kill Me

My Pants Weren\'t Ripped Before I Climbed Up Here I Swear

posted by Gidge Uriza

Barbie Princess holiday freebies always rock my world. I wore their christmas outfit to an ice skating party last year. This one didn’t dissapoint either. A super cute string bikini with some pants you choose to wear or not (I decided to wear them since I was monument climbing – did I mention this entire thing was FANTOM? GAH!) Continue reading

Patriotica – Part One

Live From the CNN Center in Atlanta!
My fellow Americans, and Ameriphiles,
The 4th of July weekend is almost upon us.
In RL this means barbecues, family picnics, parties, cookouts, trips to the beach and the omnipresent fireworks displays.
IN SL this means all of the above – plus the REQUISITE fashion adjustments for the old Red White and Blue. Continue reading

When a Fashionista Gets Dressed…..

posted by Gidge Uriza

When a fashionista gets dressed
there are two possibilities.
She can slick back her hair with V05 and some give it some shakes for an unkempt style, appropriate for some dinner at The Hurricane Cafe.
Or
She can coif herself elegantly wearing a feminine style that speaks more of a night at Minnie’s .

If she reaches for the tube of V05 that’s that.

But, if she coifs herself elegantly then there are TWO possibilities. Continue reading
