The Dorky Fashionista and a Face Palm Incident

I always like to think I’m thorough before contacting a creator that something is wrong, simply because the problem usually exists between the keyboard and the chair.

But I slipped into the Shades of October shrug the other day and my first thought was, hmmm, where is the shirt?  So then I’m slapping on other layers, and no matter what I did, I was all boobs in the wind – wearing a lovely shrug.

I’d had a problem a couple of days before with another creator’s stuff – the textures were borked and didn’t work so I kind of thought that might be going on, and IM’d Auguste Finair of Shades of October. She asked me if it was like the picture, and I said ,no I’m topless.

And promptly SENT her a topless pic of myself wearing the shrug. (She will probably sell it to you for a good price). Continue reading →

I found this outfit at Sn@tch when I was looking for something to fix another problem I was having – it’s a FACEPALM story but you have to wait for that. I’d actually seen Ivey’s notice releasing it, and noted that I liked it but when I got into the store and took a good look I realized it would be AWESOME with these boots I got.

I picked these boots up at the FEMDOM event a few months ago, they were free. I was lead to the boots by a boy on a chain. So you know, that was good times. Continue reading →

New York Origami

I love the Designers United events. By focusing designers on a single inspiration, not only do they let us see an idea reimagined in many ways, they also often force designers out of their comfort zones into a new way of thinking about design. DU 19 was an extension of the DU 4 event focused on Narcissus and designers shared creations inspired by some of the alternate choices for inspiration for DU4: metamorphisis, 60s space age or origami. This dress is Anya Ohmai’s creation based on origami and gives us a new iteration of the paper dress.

I shot it at Rez on the land down below the landing point which is on an island anchored by the chain you see in the photo. If you walk to the edge of the island and let yourself fall, you will find yourself down at this very modern Stonehenge.

You can see a more complete picture of Rez here. The landing point is on the island above.

It’s no secret that I never like short hair. I mean, I “like” it but I’m always way girly happier in long hair. Until it’s time to shoot it. Then I’m all bitter because it’s sticking into my shoulders and boobs and looks like crap for the shots I want……and there is a lot of screaming and swearing usually – at least in my computer room.
