Haut Monde has released some Halloween themed fun. If you are a fan of the tight sweater dresses released not too long ago (I am) you’ll love the festival Halloween themed ghost dress. It’s silly fun which is the best kind, in my mind. Continue reading
I had one of those great mornings on the grid today. I completed a set and got it out for sale, talked to my friend Dove and found this BITCHING dress from THE ICING which desperately needed me to wear it.
I forgot I had this, how is that possible? Have I worn it before? Honestly, I don’t even care. If I previously blogged this dress it’s so flawless it deserves a second run. Continue reading
I deal with stress in a lot of ways. When I’m lost driving I sing the soundtrack from SNAKES ON A PLANE (don’t ask). Lately I’ve been thinking I need a stress theme song in general. Continue reading
Sissy did it again!
I’m obviously talking about Sissy Pessoa, the talented mind behind Baiastice. And, yes, she did it again, she made mo go woohoo when i saw one of her latest releases, the fantastic Emi boots.
In the following pictures i’m wearing them along with an amazing outfit also from Baiastice, its name is Meriera and is part of the Fall Collection, seen on the Modavia Fashion Week 2011’s runway.
These beautiful suede fringe boots are available in many colors: also, they come with two different height designs, the High Boots and the High Boots fold up, so you can switch from one style to another, according to your outfit or just your mood 😉
Don’t you just love them??? I’m sure Gidge does, as she blogged about them, too. That means the Emi boots rock! 😀

I’ve been sitting at my computer for like 30 minutes like Ron Burgundy going “Meshy meshy mesh mesh mesh” putting on mesh things hither and yon trying to decide what to wear now that I’ve installed Firestorms Mesh beta viewer. (Love you Firestorm, you are the shiznat.) Continue reading
Do any of you still watch Project Runway now that it has moved to Lifetime and added 30 minutes to the show? I confess that I do, though with less and less enthusiasm over time. You would think with 30 extra minutes, we would see more of Tim Gunn, but we don’t. Instead we see a lot more fighting and arguing in the workroom. They try, the scream, they holler, the flounce and they sneer, but they will never be Wendy Pepper. This week, though, one of the designers had an amazing Make It Work moment when she lost her money at the fabric store and had to work with the money other designers had to donate to her. It was a low cost challenge in the first place, so she had only $11.50 and was certain she was going home, but she dried off her tears and made it work and won the challenge. I didn’t have nearly the difficulty making this work. I love the Zaria bodysuit, leggings and miniskirt but I wanted a more formal look and decided to make it work by adding a full length skirt and allowing the Zaria miniskirt to function as an embellishment at the waist. I love how it turned out.
This weeks word is SOLITUDE. Is there any sound that makes you feel more alone, than the crunch of fall leaves under your feet with no conversation to break the silence?
The SL Weekly Words Challenge is a blogger challenge where you are challenged to portray a word or words in a photo of your choosing new or old. There is no right or wrong way, it’s all about what the word or phrase means to you.

I love THE MOTELS song Only the Lonely. The video reminds me of BLADE RUNNER though.
So when I put this outfit on and it reminded me of THE MOTELS and the video and then I was thinking about BLADE RUNNER………then I wanted to find someplace fun and weird to shoot this new release from BAIASTICE which is part of the new Fall collection. Continue reading
It’s Not Easy Being Green
It seems you blend in with so many other ordinary things
And people tend to pass you over
cause you’re not standing out
Like flashy sparkles in the water
Or stars in the sky
But green is the color of spring
and green can be cool and friendly like
and green can be big like a mountain
or important like a river
or tall like a tree
This song made me think of creators who truly make nice, very well made items that might not be THE BIG GUNS you see releasing news at Modavia. They’ve got talent, they’ve got verve but they’re not the big fashion houses we’ve spent the past week drooling over.
Regardless, there are some brands that release fun and pretty pieces that are just as NOT TO BE MISSED as anything else. The precious dress from SOMNIA is a great example. Released in MYRIAD colors and on basically EVERY LAYER POSSIBLE (good god Sanura when do you SLEEP) this is a great example that there are gems laying about.
You just have to get out and go shopping. 🙂
And, dig the awesome guillotine necklace from Bewildebeest and the new statement ring from Dark Mouse. SWEEET New Jewelry Is SWEEEET.
GO SHOPPING!

Is there a wrong way to wear a snake on your head? I don’t think so. But as I was styling this new release from Wasabi Pills and playing around with colors etc, I kept thinking WHAT am I going to wear with a snake on my head? Continue reading
