But I am done with apple-picking now.

and there may be two or three Apples I didn't pick upon some bough. But I am done with apple-picking now.

My long two-pointed ladder’s sticking through a tree
Toward heaven still,
And there’s a barrel that I didn’t fill
Beside it, and there may be two or three
Apples I didn’t pick upon some bough.
But I am done with apple-picking now….Robert Frost

I fell in love with this coat from E-Clipse. I had gone to the main store to look for something else and this caught and kept my attention. It comes in several colors and the scarf is integrated into the jacket. The pants are an older pair from Baiastice that are worth keeping in your closet for mixing and matching.

Climbing the Ladder

I shot this a few days ago with a huge part of my hip accidentally alpha’d out. I’m a blogger genius I am. This gorgeous body suit – it would be lovely with a skirt or slack, and these shoes are from House of Hucci and are STILL available at Collabor88. What? You STILL didn’t make it to Collabor88 for the October haul? Well the clock is ticking up it’s STILL open…run dammit the crowds are gone and the goods are still just as wonderful. Continue reading →

Wishes and Wants

Alaska Metro is participating in a “new to me” event (hey it could be new, or old, I don’t even know) called SAD NOVEMBER. Why so SAD November? I’m sort of ok with November really. Thus far it’s treated me better than September and October so I don’t have this Sad November thing in focus.

The event however is cute. I looked through their event and am going to have to do some more shopping. You can check out the gallery HERE.

I’m trying a new to me skin today, from Deetalez.  What do you think?

If the jeans are right…

If the jeans are right, the experience is transforming, like putting on a magic cloak.
Ritu Kumar, who is one of India’s most successful fashion designers, said “When women wear denim it (the derriere) must look elegant. It’s the second thing every woman looks at in the mirror, but it’s the first thing she cares about. She does that half twirl, her back arched and her head craned around. If the jeans are right, the experience is transforming, like putting on a magic cloak.” And that’s the truth!

Since it’s “all about that bass”, Blueberry should be your go-to store for jeans, yoga pants, bootie shorts, body-con skirts and dresses and everything about that bass.

If you’ve ever wondered why it’s “all about that bass” just look at the shape of that guitar. It’s bringing booty back and so is Blueberry. Not that booty ever left.

In was chilly, so I added a high-fashion leather jacket from Azuchi for Uber. It comes in three colors, though I settled on black after trying each color on twenty times. Fall fashion is all about layering so I wore a Full knit bodysuit from Sn@tch, using Slink appliers. There is a turtleneck collar attachment to make it look its best.

Just One Look

I’m just stretching before settling into my morning routine of blog surfing and enjoying some free time.  Tuesday is always such an annoying morning for me, it’s always the morning I think “Oh I’ll play a little WoW” before I recall that it’s doing maintenance.  I guess we covet what we don’t have then, eh?

Well I’m trying to decide what to do with myself otherwise, and slipped into this cute new dress ensemble from Sascha’s designs, she’s made it in three variations, on solid, one print (I am wearing) and one sparkly – PERFECT for the holidays.

I’m going to be lazy and share her vendor ads for it.

Exploring Vivara

You don’t gamble to win. You gamble so you can gamble the next day. Bert Ambrose
There’s a new game in town. Well, a new place to game. I headed over to Vivara, a new gaming sim. I got dolled up with a couple pieces from The Instruments event, mixing a dress from DE.Designs with a feather bolero from SAS: Sascha’s Designs. There’s a lovely performance hall there and I thought since we can do anything in SL®, I might pretend I can sing. It’s purely pretend.

Presented For Your Consideration…A Day Called Monday

Leave a reply

Gidge Uriza is an ordinary fashion blogger. She’s been at her role for several years now and has enjoyed some success. But lately she’s found that she’s more and more vexed by the little things. The enhancements that just end up being more work, the new releases at events only, the fact that the new Firestorm takes such big pictures that no matter what she does she can’t crop them.

She’s worn out. Continue reading →

Giving Up Is Freeing

I’m loving the new Firestorm but it seems like no matter what I do, my pictures are bigger than my little free editing tool wants to use. Hey I’m just going to roll with it. Not being able to crop isn’t a tragedy.

Today’s adventure involved going over to Shiny Shabby and pulling the Gacha for this dress/sweater combo from Dami. For 69L there wasn’t a bad result to be had. I wanted shoes to go with it but alas I couldn’t get into FAMESHED.  But I got a pink dress so really, clearly the gacha gods were with me! Continue reading →

I can’t believe how much time I lost and now it’s almost Halloween and there are about 1000 Halloween things I haven’t done or worn! SO MANY THINGS! I love them all, want to do them all and then some. I don’t even care how silly they are, I am a fiend for Halloween. Continue reading →

ECLIPSE Magazine Is Out

ECLIPSE Magazine Cover

The latest issue of ECLIPSE Magazine is out with a cover story on Siddean Munro of SLINK along with Sideman’s own explanation of her creative process from the idea to the release. It’s a don’t miss piece. For the first time, I understand what weight painting means.

Biblbe Oh

I also interviewed Bibbe Oh, the SL artist who is the first life Bibbe Hansen, also an artist. She brings her SL art to first live galleries and bridges those two worlds seamlessly. She also has a fascinating life story full of amazing characters and creatives.

Aradia Aridian wrote a great article on kid’s fashions, called Baby Got Swag. There are also several great fashion pieces full of photos.

Each month, we hear from the general public in Second Life in Voices from the Grid, interviewing residents on one topic. This month’s Voices From the Grid asks “How real is Second Life?”
