Casual Friday – On Wednesday

posted by Gidge Uriza

It’s Friday in my world. I used to work in a place that had a jeans on Friday rule. If you were going to be OFF of work on Friday, you’d wear jeans on whatever your LAST day of work that week was, and declare to anyone who raised their eyebrows “TODAY IS MY FRIDAY!”

Hey. It worked.

This is another great pick-up from Dolly Rock when she releases her new releases for only L$100. I would never lie and say I’m madly in love with everything she makes (hell, I fangrl Digit Darkes and won’t even say that about her) but truly – I find some gems in that store, fun kicky things from formal to smexy and I adore picking them up on sale for belonging to her SOM.

This set includes the jens, corset style top and a hat.

I am not wearing the hat. I’m not a hat person, they involve editing and other things that I have little patience for. It’s a CUTE hat. It’s just not my thing. Especially after I spent so much time doing my hair!

Baloonies

Dove Swanson has made an AO that will lift your spirit and your avatar in more ways than one. First, it’s a Relay For Life item so your purchase price will help that great cause. Secondly, it’s a fun Animation Override that is full of whimsy and a playful spirit and as for the last, look at the picture.  To show it off, I wanted an equally whimsical dress so chose this one from KA Designs.

Baby Got a New Pair of Shoes

Abraxxa Anatine of EarthStones brings a jewelers eye for detail to her shoe making – and every pair of her shoes are truly jewelry for your feet. Last night she released 10 news shoes and kindly sent me a couple pair of truly exquisite ones. The shoes are called Lalika and each pair lets you select between 3 metals and 3 stones to expand your options. The pair shown above are raspberry and I selected the Sugilite stone option. With these shoes I am wearing a lovely dress from KA Designs called Cove.

This pair is her Fruit Punch shade. There are five pairs of shoes with different colored straps and 5 pairs with single color straps and she is selling them individually or in two fatpacks. The fatpacks are 30% off which gives you almost 2 pair in discount. With these shoes, I am wearing the newest dress from Mimikri – the Sina in stripes.

In the Summer, In the City

When it gets hot and the sun beats down on the asphalt, it’s time to break out the sunglasses and bright colors. The bright colors add zest and energy to combat the enervating heat and the sunglasses make the bright glare bouncing off the sidewalks bearable. White, such as in the jacket, is the necessary color of the season – brightening your look and reflecting the light and heat away from you. Dressing for summer heat is always fun because it demands your brightest brights and lets you shine. For example, the FAB.PONY dress above is the brightest blue or the KA Creations dress below, both accented with white accessories.

O Admiral, My Admiral

My apologies to Walt Whitman.

Last Saturday, I saw Uma’s marvelous post with the My Admiral Jacket from Milk Motion. She is one of my favorite bloggers and someone whose originality and fashion wit brings real joy and elan to the feed.  I have never met her, but certainly get the impression that she is what we call “nice people” in my neck of woods as her blog is always positive and a delight. When I saw that jacket I knew I had to have it and seriously, it was a struggle to take it off. In fact, I wore it in two outfits back to back.

Quick Look: Diapop & &bean

Here’s a cute  casual outfit perfect for chilling out with friends at The Velvet or running about shopping. The top is from &beans, comes on multiple layers and has an option to wear without the lacy ruffles on the neck. The pants are from Diapop. Now Diapop makes some adorable tops and if they would only make them on all layers and long enough to tuck in, my budget would be in serious trouble.  If you don’t mind crop tops and single layer tops (and many folks don’t) you should check out how cute they are. You can get an idea just from these adorable pants.  The flats are from Shiny Things – and I lurve them.

Butterflies Hanging Fire

Sometimes I shoot a great outfit or dress and then don’t post it right away, letting it get bumped by something more topical or timely. I try to shoot a few outfits at once and stock up a bit in case I  can’t get anything done some nights. This is one that’s been hanging fire for more than 10 days and really it deserves better than that. It’s the butterfly gown from Moxie Polano. I picked it up at Relay For Life, but didn’t shoot it right away, so it’s been waiting its turn very patiently.  Looking at the excellent cutwork and battenburg lace on the bodice as well as the button gloves, I really should not have let it wait. It’s just so lovely.

Hee Haw or I wasn't kidding about the boots.

Normally I would wait and post this in the morning, but since I have shown you Miffy in these old lace up boots in black, I thought you would enjoy the funny coincidence that we were both wearing the same boots, but in completely different styles. After a trip to magi take, I could not resist showing off my finds – especially since it reminds me of cleaning out the cow barn at my uncle’s dairy farm. This may be TMI, but I assure you it’s much more pleasant shoveling straw and manure than washing down the milk off the floor in the milking shed.
