If you have been under a rock, then you don’t know that the I <3 Rouge event is kicking off at 3pm SLT and it’s going to be spectacular. The saviest shoppers are already hitting the sim, knowing that once the DJs hit the floor it’s gonna be a packed house and you don’t want to miss out on any of these items, especially since some are exclusives JUST for this event.

Vive la Rouge
Starting today at 3 PM, there will be a weekend fundraising party to keep Rouge, that amazing red woman, alive and well and a destination spot on the grid. Rouge is not just the home sim for Codebastard Redgrave, or Codie, but it’s also a wonderful terraformed sculpture and a fabulous venue for events. Codie has been generous over the years, allowing folks to have parties and events at her club for no charge and over time a wonderful community of people have come to think of Rouge as a home away from home.
Many of those people are going to do their best to save Rouge with DJ’ed parties on Friday, Saturday and Sunday and by donating fun rouge items whose proceeds go to support Rouge. For example, the poses used in this post are all I poses by Status and all proceeds go to the support of Rouge sim. For complete details about the event, see here.
All Gamblers & Fancy Women Must Sign Up with the Captain
Gacha gambling is one of those Second Life® joys that are widely shared and deeply felt. Folks love to try their luck and the follow up with trading and garage sales while they strive to collect the entire set of this hamster or that spice or those shoes. PXL Creations is joining the Gacha craze with sixteen skins; eight for men and eight for women. The women’s skins are based on Gaia, a wonderful skin that I often wear. The men’s skins are based on PXL Creation’s Daniel.

It’s 3PM So It Must Be Zenith
Chic Management’s new monthly showcase FAIR has a clever organizing framework. Each monthly showcase is limited to twelve designers each of whom are assigned an hour of the day to serve as their inspiration. It’s a lovely conceit and for many of the items, I could see how the time of day inspired their design immediately. It is fun to walk the clock and try to figure out if I can follow their train of thought. Some were less successful than others are making an obvious connection to their time of day, but I like the challenge and seeing their efforts to meet it.
Miffyhoi Rosca of Zenith was assigned 3 PM and coincidentally, I am typing this very sentence at 3:01 PM. I can’t quite make the connection between the time of day and the off-shoulder sweater, but I certainly can make a connection to the sweater. It comes in three colors and also has matching socks that I did not put on. It’s comfy and cozy and so chic at the same time.
Whimsy at Linden Endowment for the Arts
I put on this dress from Donna Flora and loved the whimsical fabric choice. This inspired me to leave my box and head off in search of a fun, whimsical place to shoot. I started at Linden Endowment for the Art by opening my map and entering LEAn in the search window starting with 1. By the way, LEA1 is gorgeous, just not whimsical. Anyway, I ended up at 13 where I fell in love. I was so excited I mass broadcast a SLURL to everyone online telling them I found a great sim if they wanted to check it out. Several folks showed up for a peek, enough to make me crash.
And some of us danced! Yay for mesh skirts that skipped along with us. As you can see, Gidge and I, completely by coincidence, wore the same dress – and look very different. She’s wearing a much more classic feminine style while mine is casual and playful.
Cartoon Friends In a Cartoon World
I couldn’t resist checking out LEA13 between Honour McMillan’s post and Cajsa already being there and insisting that it was amazing. I wasn’t prepared for the stark beauty or the enchanting whimsy the place would inspire. Cajsa loved it so much she sent some blasts that people should come join us.
Our friend Hart Larsson of PXL Creations did just that!
Hart must’ve found it to be as playful and fun as we did, because he lead a bout of random dancing that must’ve gone on for nearly 45 minutes. Continue reading
A Nip in the Air
I thought there was a nip in the air the other day. Turns out it might have been early flu symptoms, but whatever the reason, feeling chilly in real life got me seeking comfy, cozy in Second Life® so I put on the layers. I began this outfit with this gorgeous mesh jacket from La Penderie de Nicole. La Penderie de Nicole is a new store for me, but the designer Marcopol Oh is someone whose photography I have admired for a long time. The houndstooth print is gorgeous and I love the little trace of red dashing through it.
First time buyers may feel some hesitation because we are accustomed to either a one-item boxed Pay vendor or a Buy vendor with all the items. Seeing the landmark and 1 item in the Buy window, I wondered for a moment whether there was an error in setting up the vendor, but never fear, it’s just that the many size options were all boxed and added with the landmark.
Running Late
The only thing worse than Monday is Tuesday. I slept too long, dawdled too long and ended up racing to get ready for my pixel day. Continue reading
LIVING DEAD GIRL – or Disney Villain ?
There are so many things going on, I can’t count them all. But I made time enough to make sure I had something perfect for Sunday morning Jazz at the Velvet with Cajsa as our DJ. It’s one of my favorite things to do, after breakfast, stroll over to the Velvet and just listen to whatever awesomeness Cajsa is spinning. Continue reading
Third Time Is the Charm
It’s so funny that Acha, Gidge and I all independently decided to blog these gorgeous shorts from Ingenue today. I feel like I need to pull out a timestamp and say, b-b-b-but I shot them yesterday. But you know what? It doesn’t matter that we all wore the same shorts, if you look at these three posts they are all so very different. From Acha’s high camp to Gidge’s casual chic to my classic style, we all took a different approach to the same shorts and came up with very different looks. You can find the shorts in several colors at Collabor88 and they are a don’t miss item.
