This is such a lovely, spring-like dress and today is sunny and bright after weeks of rain and snow and ick, that I could not resist pulling it out. A lovely vintage gown from the duchess of vintage, Neferia Abel of Ivalde, this has a lovely satin floral print with sheer tulle on the bodice.
I feel pretty!
Oh, so pretty!
Pretty and witty and bright!
Now who would not feel pretty in this marvelous jeweled brocade gown from Mimikri. This gown takes opulence to the royal vault and comes out wearing the crown jewels. To add to its lustre, it comes with multiple options for wearing, including the fabulous sheath shown in this picture. The pastel gloves from Fleur look great too.

Cajsa took me to Line to check out the boots, but I ended up being mesmerized by the clothes as well. You might not know it, but I have a ridiculous collection of green shirts and sweaters in my RL in shades of this color of green. Continue reading

You know Izumiya. Great bargains on Neko and Urban pieces, some fun Japanese traditional pieces. A few whole SETS of poses for free plus the entire second floor is free or close to it. So, we’re in a agreement, we KNOW Izumiya.
Or I thought we did. Till I ran over there the other day, just to see what was new. Continue reading
What is the price of whimsy? Well, starting tomorrow for the holidays, it’s 1 Linden @ Nix Sands’ wonderfully eccentric clothing store Pixie Pumps, also called XCentricity and XNT. So, when I need to find the store, I look up Nix Sands’ profile just because the name confuses me. The D’Fly Ice Queen are going on sale for just 1 L – and they are worth a 1000 times that in sheer fun and delight.
LeeZu Baxter has made a gorgeous jacket that I absolutely adore even though it eats up my necklace attachment points. Actually, I totally love it so long as I look at it from the front. I like it from the back, but wish she had not put text on the back. I am not a text on my clothing sort of gal.
TearSong Vaughan suggested I raid Rebel Xtravaganza and it must have been fate, because no sooner did I go to Rebel Xtravaganza than I noticed a lucky chair hiding under the stairs. I have been there a dozen times and this is the first time I noticed that lucky chair and even better, the lucky letter was C. Even better the prize included the exact two items TearSong asked for in her brief.
May I suggest the mellow skirt and winterproof sweater from Rebel Xtravaganza? 🙂 You can pick which color 😉 Maybe combined with a pair of funky leggings and large boots.
In this edition of the Dress Me Up Challenge, I was asked to go Dutch Touch. The specific brief was as follows:
I am thinking something from Dutch Touch, preferably with pants, some boots along the lines of the Ribbon Boots from Shiny Things. To top off a more rough and tumble look some hair from Kin and maybe one of the bruised up skins from Tuli that she has for sale in Dogtown (I think they are still there)
So Candy Flanagan suggested pink and more specifically, she wrote, “Try raiding Honey Kitty or Momo for a super girly look, completed by hair from Gritty Kitty and accessories from Violet Voltaire.” I hope I meet her brief with this girly-girl pink outfit pulled together from Momo.

……but the very next day, you gave it away.
This year, to save me from tears – I’ll give it someone special.

First off, let this be a lesson to all of us, don’t pick up guys on Christmas. That’s just tacky. And I think we all know that “heart” is a metaphor – so now, let’s all agree together. No picking up guys on Christmas. It only ends in heartache and breathy songs of heartbreak. Continue reading
