Tongue-Tied

Aug24_002

This fun sundress from Ingenue for Vintage Fair had me reaching for some rockabilly and the incomparable Wanda Jackson. Some people say she is the female Elvis, but frankly, Elvis is the male Wanda Jackson.

Oh, great good golly, he thrills me so
When the apple of my eye whispers in my ear
I get real speechless and I act so shy
And all I can say is neenie-neenie-ny
I get tongue tied, ooh
I get tongue tied, yeah
I go, well ah-ah-ah…
What I’m tryin’ to say is
I love you, yeah!

I added so stockings from League which are super sexy with their garters and the hot Pinup Pumps from N-Core.

I Knew A Girl Named Milly

She was the walking incarnation of the karma wheel, was Milly. She did good things, good things happened. She did bad things, bad things happened. Yet just like the old witchcraft rules, her evil returned to her threefold (although who is doing that counting is always somewhat suspect to me).

Born in the coal mining hills of West Virginia, the 9th of 13 children, Milly was born into poverty. Her exhausted mother looked at the two nurses who had just come to the house to deliver her and asked “What are your names?”.  Sister Imelda and Sister Ann they were, and thus – Imelda Ann was named – called Milly.

She’s A Little Runaway – a Vintage Fair Preview

I’m running away. It’s settled. You can’t make me stay, you don’t understand my music or my friends or anything THAT MATTERS TO MEEEEEEEE.

No wait, that’s not right. I’m all grown up. Hmmmmm. What is it then? Continue reading

Edit This!

Edit This

I got an offline message the other day that said, “Gidge Uriza has offered you ‘STATUS Edit This’ in Second Life. Log in to accept or decline the offer.” Hmmmm. I had to give her a call to find out what she was sending me to edit and what she wanted done, but it turned out that is the name of her new pose set she just released. I had to laugh, because truly, Gidge so loves to edit that I am surprised I haven’t received things with that name a hundred times. Anyway, I was reveling in my love for the new Mignon top from Ingenue, so I tossed on another color and then picked out this gorgeous skirt from coldLogic to wear with it.

Second Serendipity

july08_010

I love how Second Life Serendipity works. Take this outfit. I found this gorgeous Iris skirt at Leverocci and was looking for a good top to wear with it. I had tried on top in my White Tops folder and settled on a nice tank and a jacket which made a nice classic look, but was not what I had envisioned. Suddenly someone posts a vendor pic of Betty Doyle’s new top for Ingenue and had exactly the sort of modern lines I had been hoping for.

This fabulous jacket from Hucci has the classic, eternal chic of a Chanel jacket and the tank from MichaMi can dress up or dress down. I shot this at Digital Dragon – a great sim  with a predominantly black and white design.  This and the other Digital Dragon pics used Di’s Opera poses.

Inviting You Over for Breakfast…

One of my favorite shows ever had a great line, it went something like “If you invite a someone over, it’s for sex. If you invite someone over for dinner, it’s for sex and you’ll cater.”

If you are looking to cater…the Apponos Aprons are still available at the Summer by the Sea Gacha on Amira. In fact, you could even do something more wholesome than post sex cooking, like make stuff for your family or whatever.

Me?

I’m catering.

Oscar and “his” computer

“frrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr” is what my cat had to say this morning. He also said “ghew” and tried to order something on Itunes. Thankfully, when I came back to my chair, the message said they were unable to complete his request. I turned off one-click ordering at Amazon a few months ago after having to cancel The Barbados Travel Pack. Of course, when I try to blog, he’s all over the place. Butting his head against my forehead, climbing up on my shoulder and walking all over the place. If you knew how any times I deleted long interjections in my blog posts! But of course, I wouldn’t have him any other way. He’s a loving, curious and demanding cat who provides so much entertainment and affection. Don’t fret about his eye, he’s still a little OCD from spending 8 months in the animal shelter before I adopted him. It’s been a year and it’s so much better, but not completely gone. The black SoftPaws on his claws prevents him from scratching himself too much.

Even with all his help, I hope to introduce you to this lovely day dress from Bilo. It’s a rather conservative (for Second Life) dress, but RL or SL, this is the perfect dress to beat the heat – fabric that breathes and loosely fitted. It’s bright summer colors just add some energy to the look. You can find this dress in this gorgeous blue and several other colors at faMESHed.

Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps…

Rather than being responsible and working on my stuff for SL9B last night, I popped over to the Velvet to dance while Cajsa DJd. After about the third awesome and kind of random tune, I asked her what the theme was – joking “Just stuff I like?”

She said “yes that’s the theme, I couldn’t come up with one and as I flailed I decided to just make it stuff I like.” Continue reading

Palm Springs Cottage by Barnesworth Anubis

Barnesworth Anubis has brought us the luxury of the dry heat and of the southwest in his Palm Springs cottage.

The patio and pool are gorgeously landscaped with local plants and it’s roomy enough to add any pieces you might have brought when you moved out west. Continue reading
