My Favorite Color

Green is my favorite color. It’s a good thing because there’s so much green in the world with the grass and the leaves on the trees. I discovered that I need to live in a green environment after a short and unsuccessful move to Montana where I became so depressed that I began sleeping for hours and hours everyday. Taking my nephew on a college tour and showing him my alma mater (which he chose to attend) I came back to life and good cheer with an hour of entering the green grasslands that I love. I will never live in an arid place without lots of green again. I need green! And I really love green when it’s in an adorable little dress like this one from sen*2.  It’s a little summer strapless sundress, but a nice cardigan dresses it up a bit.

If the Shoe Fits, Wear It Again & Again

I love the playful look of the Magnifico Plateau shoes. In particular, the blue ones with that beautiful shade of blue that reminds me of the Melmac dinnerware at my uncle’s cabin on Lake Kabetogama. I suppose associating shoes with dinnerware is a bit odd, but that dinnerware reminds me of family picnics, playing with cousins, tramping through the woods and hours of fun on the lake.  Just about everyone had Melmac dinnerware at their lake cabins because that stuff was indestructible. You know, Mad Max and all the post-apocalyptic survivors may lack for a lot of niceties, but they would still have Melmac. Here I am enjoying some music while wearing a great top from Eldee and capris from artilleri.

IFW10 – Cloud Nine

1 Reply

International Fashion Week 2010 sponsored by Glance Internation began today and will continue through the 18th with 5 fashion shows each day. Can you imagine the excitement and all the great fashion on display? Just to give you an idea, take a look at this IFW10 Exclusive design from G Sloane Couture. It’s called Cloud Nine and wearing makes a person feel like they are floating on Cloud Nine with its fresh creme de menthe color that should make even the Grinch smile.

The dress is a hot weather and sunshine dress and made me think of villas and sunshine and the Greek islands and so I went to Armenelos – a new sim in the multi-sim Calas Galadhon parks. Yes, parks created just for people to enjoy – no stores, no rentals, just pure pleasure.  It’s a beautiful complex if white stucco houses with stairs and sidewalks that wind and meander like an ancient village up the mountain. It’s pure pleasure which means it’s a Greek version of Cloud Nine.

Summer Sun

Leave a reply

The summer sun can be enervating, but Lelutka has the solution – the Berthold hat. Now, I am one of those people who wonder about the logistics of things, so I assume that this is going to be one of those hats that you buy when you get to your vacation destination and ship home. It won’t fit easily in a suitcase and if you try to wear it on a plane, I think you will be arrested! Still, it’s gorgeous, if impractical.

Don't Hate the System Skirt!

3 Replies

I am a confirmed lover of the system skirt. It’s really the only way to get the long, lean look of a pencil skirt. There’s no skirt shape more flattering and sexy than a pencil skirt at least in my opinion. Like most people, I found the initial look of a pencil skirt in SL a bit disturbing because my derriere just ballooned when I put on a skirt. That’s because the system skirt floats above the mesh instead of laying flush on it. I quickly learned to create a skirt shape that fixed all that and have been loving system skirts ever since. It’s not that much work and you only have to do it once – make a copy of your shape, make the edits and save it as Skirt Shape and you’re good to go. There’s an awesome tutorial  for you from Miko Okegamu on youtube.

Macrame

Leave a reply

This gorgeous body suit from Baiastice is called Macrame. When you say macrame to me, that’s not what comes to mind.  To be honest, every time I see the word macrame, I think of this Portland restaurant called the Daily Planet – a burger and fries kind of restaurant/pub – that has these huge macrame plant and light fixture things hanging from the ceiling all made of jute. Now, imagine how years of fry-cooking grease-laden air will affect that jute rope they are made of and what it may look like if seldom cleaned and you will get an idea why I only went there once and why the word macrame is terribly unappealing. So, with my anti-macrame bias solidly on high alert, I tried on this outfit and was surprised by how lovely it is – and seriously, that’s lovely gorgeous beautiful lace – not macrame. And did I have fun mixing it up with some skirts.

A Date with Frosty the Snowman

Leave a reply

Well, not really, but if I did have a date with Frosty, I could not go wrong with this amazing gown from MiaMai. The gown is called Ever East and is a sinuous sexy shimmer of a gown that sleekly slides along your form. With a higher than thou side slit, it’s a perfect reveal of the fantastic Ice Queen skin from PXL Creations. A special holiday gift makeup for the fabulous July skin, this skin has delicate tracery tattooing on the legs, back, bodice and arms.

I love the fun dotted fabric in this playful Beetlebones dress and could not resist playing with the dot motif to the nth degree by pulling in the target tights from Veschi and even a circle in circle jewelry set from lucas lameth.

Creator, Preserver & Destroyer

1 Reply

Annyka Bekkers just does the most stunning work. So stunning, she actually got me into a shirt with a picture on it. I love prints and all, but abstract and geometric prints – not representational. So it takes something really special to make me want to wear it. However, this shirt of Devi, the Great Goddess – the trinity of Creator, Preserver and Destroyer did the trick.  I love the colors, I love the artwork and how it is not lost in the expansion and contraction of the fabric over the shape. That is quality texture work, something that you can depend on with anything from Blowpop.

Options, must have options!

Leave a reply

Have you ever watched the Rachel Zoe Project? I confess it is a guilty indulgence of mine. I love fashion and so I can understand her someone out-of-kilter priorities. Much is made of her pet phrases like “Bananas!” and “I Die.” and the like, but they never seem to notice that there is one word repeated again and again and again in every episode – and that word is options. “We need more options!” is the theme of Rachel Zoe and her crazy staff’s lives.  Well, if she had this dress she would have many options in one. For example, the bodice can be worn like this with bare skin peeping out or….
