I’ve probably bounced around on this cute compact pose set of Cajsa twenty times in various lingerie and get-ups, but it wasn’t until I got the Victorian Ventilated Corset set from Reasonable Desires that I’d found what I really wanted to wear on it.
I mean, ribbed hose? White cotton bloomers? Ah….I’m ironically sexy! Continue reading

I told a friend the other night that I’ve been shooting like crazy lately, and not posting. I’m not sure why. I’m sort of randomly wandering and shooting and styling outfits and then I have very little to SAY so I’m struggling to blog.
I think I’ve got post-partum brain cramp. Continue reading

So you may not know this, but I never delete anything. If you’ve sent it to me, I’ve got it (unless you sent it via subscribo or deliverator and I was capped).
Ok that is a partial lie, I did delete my Okina prim vajayjay that a mommyblogger friend bought me on like day two on The Grid. It was hideous, freaky, and despite being good for gags like making it pee in the middle of rooms suddenly, I really didn’t need it. (ok sometimes that might be fun to have back – /me considers all the places I could suddenly pee on the floor). I also on occasion delete things which are too hideous to contemplate further,but this is rare.
But I digress………..
This is valid information because it’s how I arived at today’s outfit. Digging through my inventory going “Hmmm, what haven’t I worn?” I found a box from DREAMS – from my friend Sanura Snowpaw. I pulled it out and tried on everything and ended up leaving on the corset top and the collar……I was gonna be a neko girl for fun but then I found this cart item at the photo studio and it didn’t work. Mebbe next time! Continue reading
I always have the best time styling Blueblood releases. I probably take longer on them than almost anyone, because I am always trying to Barbie-doll them to be ironic or step out of my pink Mattel box and take them in a different direction than my comfort zone requires.
Just as I can rave about how Sascha Frangilli gives me oodles of options in my ballgowns (just see previous posts from me AND Cajsa- raving is aplenty) Ghanima Uriza (my favorite Uriza cousin)rocks my world as far as styling options for her releases. I’d be hard pressed to really shoot them all.
Yes. I Bite.

All videos in the 80s needed fog, wind, outrageous and bold face makeup (even on the boys), big tall hair that would stand up and NOT sway in the wind (thank you AquaNet) and if you were REALLY putting effort into your production – NINJAS AND TIGERS.
(Point of reference – Total Eclipse of the Heart Video, I promise, You Tube It.) Continue reading

It’s no secret that on many occasions Cajsa and I share a brain. Often, with no communication for a day or two, we’ll hit publish at the same time. Now I admit, when I saw she’d put up her gown from Sascha’s Designs – I already had mine in queue to publish next and thought it was funny.
But clearly, our brains are still attached because I had Baiastice queue up to publish today, and when I finally sat down at the PC what do I find on her post?
Baiastice.
Great minds…… Continue reading

Ok so just like Cajsa said below……..the options that Sascha Frangilli gives us in each item we buy from her are staggering, release after release. As a blogger, I spend more time figuring out which pieces to wear, how to wear them together – or whether to just shoot them ALL than actually shooting.
I admit it, though – it’s kinda fun.
The flexibility with the variety of styles of skirts offered, two pair of gloves, a bolero jacket option etc means that although Cajsa and I each blogged this today, neither of us are sporting it exactly the same way which I really like.
This is a gorgeous spring outfit in either black or white – and as I look at the hat I’m reminded that the Kentucky Derby is coming up……..girls got your Derby Hats ready yet?

When I was in High School, I was plagued by being smart enough to take classes ahead of my own grade level. My sophomore year I ended up in a Senior Level biology class, and had this misfortune to take a seat in the midst of three jock bullies on day one of class.
I should’ve known, should’ve switched seats when I heard one of them whisper “This chick looks smart, let’s get her at our table she can do all the work.”
And our teacher, intimidated by the fact that at 17 years old these mongrols were man sized – turned the cheek as week after week they harrassed and bullied me. They would steal my work and copy it, break anything of mine they could get their hands on. They’d pull stools out from under me so that I’d fall when I tried to sit down, poke me with pins so that I would move my arm that they could copy my work.
But the most annoying thing they’d do, believe it or not, was call me Gidget at first and then after weeks passed – Gidge. Oh my god their neanderthal brains thought that this was hilarious – as my RL name is Bridgette. THE SHEER WIT OF IT NEARLY COLLAPSED THEM WITH LAUGHTER. Continue reading

Sascha Frangilli of Sascha’s designs dropped her gorgeous WATERFALL ball gowns on me like two weeks ago, but my ongoing pregnant sloth has kept me from bringing them to you in a timely manner.
So – I thought I’d start by showing you the gorgeous limited edition GOLD color that made me drooool when I put it on.
I can actually hear the rustle of this fabric – and if you ever wore a big girly formal to a dance I bet you can too. There is a sound, a whooshing rustling sound that taffeta, chiffon and even silks made when you are wearing yards and yards of them. The weight of them as they brush past other dresses, or while you dance, makes them give off a sound that is probably indiscernible to anyone but the girl wearing it.
It’s kind of fantastic. Continue reading

My friend Morgaine Price dropped her recent creation WISH on me, and let me know that the FAE ELF PRIDE festival is still in full swing until tomorrow! So if you meant to stop by and check out the events…….she’s got a fun gown that has an add on pack to spice up the look as well. Continue reading
