Gimme Some Damn Coffee

Let’s face it, some people aren’t themselves until they eat. I’m not myself until I get a cup (or two) of hot Joe in the morning. In fact, I’m downright cranky I confess. I probably shouldn’t get this cranky but darnit, the service in this place is just too damn slow. Continue reading

I Never Like To Admit That I Was Wrong

Are you good at admitting you’re wrong? It’s a skill. When I’m working, toiling at my desk and blogging, shooting, styling, I have no problem admitting something’s wrong. “Look at that intersection” or “Oh god why did I think that went together” or whatever it is I’ve done wrong, I am ok with admitting it. I’m good with accepting it and moving on.

Personally I’m terrible at it.  I hate realizing I’m wrong about someone. I hate being wrong about who they are, or their intentions.  Continue reading

Got My Hucci On

So I had some time to myself after feeding my kitties and doing the usual housework and I thought SELF! You need to go out! So I dug in my closet and found some perfect clubbing clothes from House of Hucci.

It was Fetish Night and I guess my fetish is….cute clothes. Continue reading

A Headache Away

So many things are just a headache away from solving. Right now my head hurts. Decisions are hard, and I’m not a girl who makes them when I don’t have to.  Yet here I am making decisions, shedding my skin and becoming a new girl.

It’s rather liberating. Sort of a “dance in the cold ass snow” sort of liberating.

The snow, however, is cold as shit. Continue reading

What’s Wrong With Being ?

It’s a Sunday that’s been rife with things to do and me being confused about events that aren’t open yet or are already closed. I’m 15 kinds of cranky so I decided something comfortable was in order for today.

My new dress is a shirt dress from Fission and it’s got the right amount of “put together” to go with just hanging around.  Continue reading

Cute Things On Marketplace For You

If it’s true that girls only dress up for other girls, how much more so that fashion bloggers dress up for other fashion bloggers? And compliments FROM other fashion bloggers – aren’t they some of the highest praise you get?

I received a really cute dress that fits various SLINK Bodies (I’m wearing SLINK Hourglass today) with a note that I was receiving it because Kirsten Corelone loves my blog. I fangirled being fangirled and quickly slapped it on to take a look.

It’s perfect for my shopping adventures today and a great pick up if you’re looking for something to wear out this weekend. You can find it on MP in their store here. There’s some really cute stuff in this new to me shop.

Now, I’ve got to go check on my kitties and make sure Carson fed them while I was taking a couple of days to travel! (I’m sure he did, I’m he said he would….)Happy Thursday everyone!! <3

Mesh Head from Fawny: Pros and Cons

The problem with being a blogger is that we’re obliged to make things look good. We don’t want to be photographed looking BAD, so we fix things, shoot around things, and very often don’t show you when something isn’t quite as it should be.

Sometimes the isn’t as it should be  is the Grid being stupid, sometimes it’s a design problem. Regardless, if we don’t share our quibbles (as we call them around here) we aren’t really being truthful.

When people tell me my avatar is beautiful, I routinely tell them it’s my job. Of course I look good. Which brings us today’s post. I’m sort of addicted to trying out mesh heads, and I think Gacha is a fun way to pick them up. I don’t have a lot of illusions about random MESH HEAD X not matching skins I own, I know this is a thing and I’ll put on a scarf or whatnot and make it work. I just like the variety and shooting varied photos with different faces. It’s fun. So I couldn’t resist one pull at the Epiphany event to grab one of the heads from Fawny.  Continue reading

Can We Talk About Free AOs ? Part One

For reasons I cannot properly explain I was compelled to try out some various AOs from Marketplace the other day. I decided that given the fact that decent AOs can be expensive AF that maybe, maybe I’d find a gem or two on MP. You never know.

For today’s experiment I’m not using vids – which I should have but RL is making it impossible ATM so I think I will experiment with shooting short vids of the AOs next time around and if so I’ll include this one.

I’m starting out with THIS ONE – MIA PRIMA.

Let’s start with things that are good: Continue reading

What Did I Forget ?

I’m the queen of bad intersections, hair stuck through arms, floating necklaces and various other faux pas. I’m a veteran enough blogger to snicker when someone else does it yet find the ego to go oh eff it I don’t care when I do.

This is pretty much true 100% of the time. I will decide that it’s a  more accurate representation of your SL experience as intersections and weird stuff DOES happy when you aren’t stuck in a pose for a shoot. So, that’s a Gidge truth.

However, I had this great night last night reconnecting with an old friend and then Amatorum was having a party so I slapped on something new QUICKLY and ran over there, with a nagging feeling the entire time that I was MISSING something. What am I missing? Continue reading
