Event Fusion

The Designers United event missed my radar somehow until I saw Cajsa’s blogpost. I don’t know how I missed it but I’m scattered, what can I say?

I had been petting and drooling over the gorgeous creativity dropped on the Hair Fair by Tekeli-Li this year (yes this Barbie is a huge Tekeli-Li fan, go figure) and I had my skin all picked out but just couldn’t decide what to wear – until I got the DU notice about this dress from ORTA.

Three Event Openings in One Day: Bring It On

For SL Fashionistas, this weekend presents the beginning of an embarrassment of riches coupled with the opportunity to do good while looking good. Yes, there are three, three highly anticipated events that opened this weekend and two of them are fundraisers. One is Designers United, the sporadic exhibition of design focused on a single theme, another is Hair Fair, raising funds for Wigs for Kids, and the other is Project Donate, an emergency fundraiser for UNICEF and their program of flood relief for Pakistan. To visually demonstrate that all this activity should be embraced as a good thing, I put together an outfit featuring items from all three events.

In fact, I decided to take the idea of mixing up the events so far that the top I am wearing is part Designers United and part Project Donate. The upper portion comes from La Gyo’s Antique Tunic for Designers United and the bottom portion comes from Bublee Bing’s Inspired by Valentino dress for Project Donate. The skirt also comes from the Inspired by Valentino Dress

Fine Tuning with Dafne

I don’t often do skin reviews because I am not one of those devil-in-the-details people who zoom in on the toes, the backs of the knees, the nipples and other parts hither and thither to inspect for flaws. I am guided more by the overall impression of the skin and how it makes me feel. The new Dafne skin from PXL Creations makes me feel great!

For the picky details, I go and read Gogo, Luna, Grazia and a few others to find out if there are flaws. Of course, with some skin designers, I just know they are flawless because the designers are so meticulous and painstaking. Hart Larsson of PXL Creations is that sort of designer. For example, reading on plurk, I saw that he reloaded 280 of his skin textures because he noticed that the texture compression varied in some viewers and make a slight imperfection. Frankly I could not see the imperfection, but that’s one of the 674 reasons I don’t make skins.

San Francisco Bay Blues

I got the blues from my baby left me
by the San Francisco Bay,
The ocean liner’s gone so far away.
Didn’t mean to treat him so bad,
He was the best guy I ever have had,
He said goodbye, I can take a cry,
I want to lay down and die.

Aug31_001.jpg

I ain’t got a nickel
and I ain’t got a lousy dime.
He don’t come back,
think I’m going to lose my mind.
If he ever gets back to stay,
it’s going to be another brand new day,
Walking with my baby
down by the San Francisco Bay.

The Ferry

It was a beautiful day – not hot, but with gentle warmth tempered by a soft breeze to freshen the  senses. A perfect day for a ferry ride. Ferries are quite common in the Northwest and range from the small ones that carry  a car or two and some passengers to huge ferries that carry hundreds of cars and buses and semis and the even more hundreds of people. Some ferries cater to tourist excursions but many more are part of people’s everyday commute.

The Ferry from AM Radio is relatively small in size – but it is beautifully made and evokes that sense of romance and adventure that ferries always make me think of.

Quick Look:PXL Creations DAFNE Hits The Grid!

Conceptually, I was going to shoot all of the makeups in all of the tones for PXL Creations new skin release, DAFNE.

However, I kept hearing that scene from PeeWee’s Big Adventure in my head “There are over 1000 ways to prepare maize, all of which I will tell you about NOW” and I thought you know, it’d probably be ok just to show SOME of them.

I’ve always loved PXL Creations skins because Hart’s awesome shading never, EVER gives me fat chipmunk cheeks. But he’s added gorgeous glossy lips on some of the makeups this release which is my addiction in both lives.

If I’m not leaving a big old lipstick shmear on my coffee cup,how will you know it’s mine?

Ok, RL Gidge has to go shmear on her OWN lipstick.

Dafne is now released at PXL Creations and she is GORGEOUS.  I’m wearing the sunkissed tone because that’s my new addiction but there are several tones for all the different tastes out there.

Now, GO DEMO! (then buy)
