I Met You On Somebody's Island

“You Thought You Had Known Me Before

I brought you a crate of Papaya

It waited all night by your door……..”

                   – Steve Miller

Oh my god did he really just say he brought over some papaya trying to make time with the ladies?

After shooting for a million hours the other night, I slipped into a cute new dress and Cajsa immediately said “Let’s shoot this one.”

Sweet. Continue reading

I Louvre It

posted by Gidge Uriza

Design constraints being what they are, I’m always charmed when I run into something different in the world of clothing. Whether it’s construction, texture, or a combination of the two – it’s fun to see how creative people can be within the contraints of PS and The World.

This dress from Cachet caught my eye on my first trip to the store. One of a series – I loved the glowing texture which seems to radiate warmth and shine. It was difficult to pick a color – but I chose Jodie at the Louvre and packed up my new purchase. Continue reading

Gentlemen, Start Your Engines

The Indy 500 has always meant a lot to me. I’m a fan. Growing up in Indianpolis I looked forward to the ENTIRE month of May and all the social events that revolved around the race. When I was about 3, when my grandfather was the mayor, my grandmother won a raffle at the Mayors Breakfast event – a black and white check mink stole. Continue reading

She's Got The Way To Move Me, Cherry


When I saw this outfit on Freestyle a while back I had to run to Honey Soul to pick it up.
So cute, festive and perfect for a day of roaming the hard pavement streets shopping for that next perfect accessory. I don’t normally carry purses but this sweet little cherry bag from Artilleri goes with the shoes and both match the dress – and well HOW was I supposed to not wear them all together?
I’m not sure how much more precious this outfit can get.
If I could have found a set of cherry earrings or hair bobs it might be perfect.  Continue reading

Purple Reign

by Gidge Uriza

I am rarely given to monochromatic power-color dressing, but when I picked up the fun ponytail at Mau and Mej’s I rummaged around to find something cha-cha to wear with it.  This fun ensemble doubles as lingerie if you lose the skirt and I love a multi-tasker (I’m a bit like Alton Brown in that fashion). 

Now if only I could find a Can Can animation.  I wore it out to an event where my friend was Djing and twirled the night away as it was – glad of the glitch pants as this skirt has BOUNCE.  Continue reading

DP YUM YUM Brings Fun For Spring

By Gidge Uriza
I ran, not walked when I saw the SL Freestyle post about this super cute skirt. It was on a night when I didn’t have much else to do, so I was running the gauntlet of fashion freebies – and this little gem was right at the top of my list. Right around the corner in the store was a collect of muted tone sweaters sold in two packs. I picked up the “reds” collection hoping that one of them would be a good compliment to this skirt – which it is.

One of my favorite things about SL are the conversations you would never have anywhere else. So when my best friend said “Come over and pick out some sculptures for your housewarming gift” I slipped into this ensemble. I think it says, “I’m casually hanging out with a friend while picking out modern art sculptures.”

Or something like that. It’s what I INTENDED to say anyway.

Style notes after the jump. Continue reading
