The Linden Landscape and be dreary, and apparently full of something glowing and full bright. You can’t count on your neighbors to be tasteful, that’s for sure. Since I now have friends who live somewhere in this megalopolis, I wanted to find a beacon that would help them get to #104 Linden Ghetto.
I feel like a MEGA FLAMINGO really says a lot.
It’s from Weather or Not for FLUX event and it’s not just decorative! It’s a festive pose prop. Continue reading
An elegant throwback to a more refined and stylish time, this month’s COLLABOR88 celebrates the era of flappers and art deco, the time when men were men and women were dames.
I already said that, didn’t I?
Well it’s still true.
Except that only cheap women were dames and I’m a lady. Obviously. Continue reading
The designers are setting up and it’s a mad dash to be open for the grand birthday celebration of Collabor88. It’s a guaranteed event of the first order, and all your favorites and lots of great guests are lining up to bring you things you need and things you want and things you’ll want to need. There are some other things that you’ll need to want. Continue reading
The Acid Lily event returning was a bit like “Hmmmm, have I heard of this event? I THINK I have…. What is it?” Let’s face it, there are so many events, sometimes it’s tough to separate the wheat from the chaff. But I don’t like chaff, so let’s talk about an event that definitely goes in the wheat bin. Continue reading
The FLUX Event this month is a Tiki Trailer park kitsch theme that is irresistible. The shopping kiosks are located on the various sandbar islands and up the hill in the trailers overlooking the whole build.
It’s a bloggers paradise with lots of great vignettes waiting for you to take pics of island and beachy themed fun, plus there are lots of goodies from props to clothes and more that I’m enjoying this round.
Dead Dolls has released a very simple but perfect summer sundress that happens to coordinate awesomely both in style and tone with the cherry red heels BOOM released at COLLABOR88 this month (PS ENDING SOON in case you didn’t go). Continue reading
The Plastik has released a new top which put me in a disco state of mind. You could totally have worn this to Studio 54. If you could get in, that is. Continue reading
Hi, I’m Helena Stringer. I was invited to blog on here by Gidge, way back in march, fully intending to start posting. Many thing got on the way. That is what happens when you run a business in sl, everything else comes second. I also had wanted to do this awesome intro, and kept scraping outfits.
I decided not to put it off any longer, and while this may not be the outfit I would have chosen for my first, I do feel it goes well with some of the more recent posts here on Its only Fashion.
This was what I wore for Bandana day yesterday. I know, I should have posted it yesterday, but alas, it was not to be. I feel it is still fitting, as I am also wearing a dress from Donna Flora. Anyone following this blog knows that there is a Charity Event going on right now for Squinternet Larnia, Designer/Owner of Donna Flora. You can read more about that HERE. I’m also wearing a bracelet from Lazuri, which is discounted at the event, with 100% of the purchase going to the charity.
I will be doing my own very special post for Squinternet at a later date, so I will offer no deeply moving words at this point in time. What I will say is that there are price ranges for everyone at the event, so if you have a few L$ to spare, please stop on by.

There were so many beautiful bandanas this year that I struggled only buying four. I kept thinking, four is plenty. You don’t NEED more than four. But, they are so pretty, I rather love them this year. I might have more than four. Continue reading
I went over last night to make another pass at shopping before the onslaught, and wanted to cover some important stuff with you to make your, and everyone elses, shopping experience better.
Like any event, looking cute isn’t going to be your most important focus. Go look cute on the last day. Right now, it’s a struggle to get in. There is a script meter that’s going to let you know if you have on too many scripts. You’ll get three warnings and then if you don’t pare it down, you’re going to get TPd. I know this, because last night in a bikini, I kept getting it. As I swore at Cajsa and muttered in RL about it being BS, I realized my glasses and earrings were scripted, and once I took them off the warning stopped. Continue reading
According to ABOUT.COM MaiTai translates into OUT OF THIS WORLD in Tahitian. It’s a rum drink and one of the most delicious treats to make you feel like you’re having a real grown up cocktail. It contains two kinds of rum for god’s sake.
Cocktails like that were made back when men were men and women were ladies or dames. Bliensen + MaiTai for Hair Fair 2013 has served up fantastic vintage looks that are elegant and true to the period they’re representing.
And take note ladies, she’s got an AWESOME BLONDE! Platinum is the tone I’m wearing and it’s appropriate for ladies and dames alike. Continue reading
