Pretty in Pinky

Posted by Gidge Uriza – FYI this is a review – but I can’t get the review logo to post!

When rifling through my new PXL Linda skins I found, to my delight, at the bottom of the group some skins with fun pink and purple tones. I immediately wanted to wear something light and summery and pulled out this dress from BINGO that I forgot I picked up. Continue reading

Grace in a Skin Flick

I received two sets from Skin Flicks to review, the first being that cocktail dress I showed you a few days ago, and then THIS lovely piece – completely on the other end of the spectrum – fashion wise.

Or is it? Continue reading

So You Need THE Dress….

posted by Gidge Uriza

Someone on the Vain Group IM the other night called out “HELP! I need the dress!” A few thought she needed a wedding dress.

But I knew. She wanted the dress. A dress of power.  A show stopper.  Her exact request had something to do with making his pants fall down around his ankles – but you get the point.

Luckily I knew where to find one. Continue reading

Not Your Typical Skin Flick

posted by Gidge Uriza

I’ve discovered a new shop to love, thanks to this excellent review pack I was sent from Skin Ficks. My first instinct was, upon hearing the name, that the clothes would be of the SL Hooker-Blingtard variety and I’d throw them out.

I couldn’t have been more wrong. Continue reading

Talk To Me, Goose

I’ve finally re-emerged from the ranks of the drug induced exhaustion + carpal tunnel that has pretty much kept me away from the keyboard except when at work.

I love it when a doctor prescribes me something and then says, “This is going to make you unbelievably exhausted. It really induces a strong sense of fatigue.”

Why, lovely…….do you have anything that makes me feel fat and ugly and we can just call it depression in a bottle?

LUCKILY I have a pixel world when I can escape these doldrums…….and I get some great opportunities to show you some fun pieces for the having. This set is really all built around this skin.  You see, because Cajsa is EVIL  my good friend she took me to Symphony to check out their skins.

Sigh…..I barely knew where to start. Continue reading

Plum Cute!

Many of you might be aware that Teagan Blackthorne and Laynie Link recently re-invented their design house and launched the TEA LANE shop with new designs. I have been remiss in checking it out (It’s totally on my list) but Laynie was good enough to drop me some goodies to check out the new offerings.

Cowl neck sweater dress? MATCHING BOOTS? YAY! Continue reading

How Can I Be Sick………?

……When I am so CLEARLY dressed for the ball!

Yes ladies, I’m totally stricken with the plague. I’ve neglected all my blogging responsibilities in favor of some serious sleep, and pillow drooling.  Surprisingly, the pillow drooling has not been as therapeutic as I’d imagined.

But I digress……. Continue reading

Who? Me? Wear Silly Shoes? NEVER!

posted by Gidge Uriza

These shoes are getting a lot of mileage but they’re too HILARIOUS not to. Seriously, giant fairytale shoes with wings with what look like fairy lights……they’re the perfect pixel compliment to SCADS of outfits.  They’re so over the top that I knew they’d be a hoot even with this sleek look from Digit Darkes. Continue reading

Brrrrrrrr, I Need a Coat!

So I’m sick. In RL. I’ll spare you the details, but let’s just say that there is snot, a sore throat that disallows proper speech and hot burning ears. There is also some coughing.

Consquently, I’m bitter.

When rifling through for something to put on for ambling around the grid the other night, the only thing I wanted was SOMETHING WARM.  I remembered something wonderful that was distributed by Peppermint Blue (and I believe might still be available on the wall at the SilkRoad Location) – this awesome winter outfit from Izumiya.

Queen of Denial

A lot of role play areas have great items that are fantastic for costumes. Not to be missed are some of the Egyptian role play areas (seriously just search EGYPT) where some of the most lavish costumes I’ve ever come across can be found.

I hunted for an Isis or other Egyptian costume for a party earlier this year and scavenged all over the grid looking for the one I wanted.  Part of my challenge was that I had fallen in love with this hair from Tekeli Li and didn’t want to wear different hair but the costumes I found had hair that REALLY had to be worn with the otufit.
