Sunday Afternoon

posted by Gidge Uriza

Once you kick off those church shoes and make your Sunday plans, you want to be comfy. So what are you doing today? A cookout? Going to drink some beer and play trivia? Cruising the grid with your girls looking for something you can’t live without?

I pillaged my inventory trying to remember what BESIDES Sari’s I had picked up at the Yak & Yeti extravaganza (I haven’t been in a while – everything might still be free, I dunno). Continue reading

Sunday Morning

posted by Gidge Uriza

I have been extreme remiss in visiting my friends the Kungles new Sim. I sent a present but between being sick and kids being sick and then being busy blah blah blah blah I never got over there. Which is lame of me, as they are some of my favorite designers in SL.

So when I went wandering around, taking in their lovely new mainstore, I was excited to take in all the news, and maybe the not-so news things I hadn’t noticed before. Continue reading

Candy and Cigarettes

posted by Gidge Uriza

It all started with a blogpost on Freestyle about a free snowboard! I was bored, had no one to hang out with and though, Hey – I’ll go get that snowboard. That’d be a hoot.

Except I couldn’t FIND it. I round RAY SKIN just fine, and I found a lot of cute freebie clothes (worn) but no snow board. Now, as will happen when there is a post from Freestyle, it was kind a crackalackin busy with freebie hunters and folks checking out a store new to them. So it was lagarrific and hard to get around. There probably WAS a snowboard and I couldn’t FIND It. Continue reading

A Fashion Blogger's Bedroom

posted by Gidge Uriza

You would imagine, that when one has a RL husband who spends hours and hours retexturing your new SL home, and he spent hours arranging and picking out furniture to make your home a place you can be proud to bring your pixel friends – that you’d be careful with your prims.

You’d mind them, make sure that you can always have plenty available, wouldn’t you?

Of course, if you did that – you wouldn’t be THIS Fashion Blogger. Continue reading

For The Inauguration,I Turned to The Italians

posted by Gidge Uriza

Cajsa said she was going to wear blue, so I felt obliged to wear red. I had this snappy little new red dress from Clio’s Pret a Porter so figured I was SET! Of course then, Cajsa got all patriotic and emotional in real life and sat watching all the festivities all over again on TV and didn’t log into our pixel world.

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

But at least I was cute. Continue reading

Presumably, The Rose WITH Thorns

posted by Gidge Uriza

King Henry the 8th took his 5th wife, Catherine Howard, straight from his 4th wife’s wedding party. He called her the ROSE WITHOUT THORNS. Presumably, a slam on his original Tudor Rose – Anne Boleyn – the raven haired beauty he had proclaimed to the world was his own true love.

Yet, Rose with or without Thorns – he beheaded them both. Continue reading

Encemble For a Sunday Afternoon

*please read all the way through, I really do know how to spell Ensemble**
Responding to some recent grousing about “unknown designers” not getting enough play in the fashion blogs, I decided to spend some of my free time specifically going to stores I didn’t know. Just looking up random search terms and TP’ing in. Looking, in fact, for that diamond that simply has not been mined yet.

I ended up in some scary places and a ton of BIAB store. Hoohoo. Yeah, oh and some orgy rooms. But I digress. Continue reading

Quick Look – SWA's Perfect Denim Skirt

posted by Gidge Uriza

When I got a “perfect fit” denim skirt dropped on me the other day, I was a bit skeptical. But when I drug it out, saw the fun purple denim AND the fact that when I put it on – the center panel prim was really simple to adjust to make look right on MY Shape……I was like “Okay, this might be the PERFECT Fit skirt!” Continue reading

What To Wear To The Drunken Drow?

posted by Gidge Uriza

My friend Delilah Drutmann dropped me a notecard a couple of weeks ago that said SHHH! Surprise party for Jezabel! At the Drunken Drow! Here is the LM!

As they are both my RL friends, and folks I drug into the Metaverse with me, I obviously HAD to attend.  But shortly after I got them out of their newbie attire, those two girls ran off into their own SL and I don’t see them all that much. So I was interested to see what they were about now that we didn’t hang IN WORLD so much.

And you’re having the party WHERE? The Drunken Drow? Continue reading

Casual Friday – It's A-Bomb

posted by Gidge Uriza

I love it when a designer (especially one I’m not all that familiar with) throws out a new release with ONE color a little cheaper. I think it’s a great alternative to a freebie. We get to check you out and see if we like your work and you still get a payment, albeit token, for your work. I know if I like your work – I won’t hesitate to come back and pick up the color I love.
