Well I got a new little dog. I might be into collecting little dogs now. With the Arcade feeding my cute things addiction this weekend it’s hard to say WHERE the madness will stop. But I’ve set up a little campsite with my new Tres Blah trailer and outdoor goodies, and the doggie and me are on vacay! Continue reading
Vespertine is releasing some gacha pieces for the book lover who really adores the look of books throughout their dwelling. They’re amazing pieces to create little vignettes for a blog, or just to enhance the narrative of your own Second Life.
Tres Blah has an assortment out, some adorable spring themed items for your home, I’ve got a few goodies and I confess I’m going to have more if I have my way.
I admit I love little personality pieces to spice up the look of my home. I’m a sucker for silhouettes.
And if those goodies weren’t fun enough, I’m also off for a weekend of relaxing at the beach in my new Tres Blah camper and some other items from their spring collection for THE ARCADE.
The Arcade opens at 12:01 AM SLT on 3/1/2014 and these are just a few of the NOT to be missed pieces of awesome this round.
Get on your marks.
Get set….
I have a doctor’s appointment this morning and am running late already. They say a pictures is worth a thousand words, so here’s 4000 words. The lighting is done in-world with a projector I will be putting on Marketplace soon.
There are some things in SL that just strike my fancy. The dress form is one of them. I love dress forms. I love that creators are whimsical enough to create dress forms. This month has seen an abundance of them. Allegory Malaprop of Schadenfreude and Julliette Westerburg of Tres Blah both released dress forms as part of their Arcade Gacha items. Sienia Trevellion of Lark also released a lovely dress form and I pulled an older version that I’m particularly fond of out of my inventory, one by Theosophy’s Trace Osterham.
Hi there, I’m Mouse Mimistrobell, and I guess this would be my first post on It’s Only Fashion! I like clothes, I like fashion and so, Cajsa and Gidge were lovely enough to invite me to post on their blog quite a while ago. So even though I am embarrassed to take so long, I finally got down to it. I was inspired by a couple of things, and being a slow burn, it takes me a while to have all the pieces come together. I picked up this sweater at the dressing room, and held on to it for a bit. Something about the yellow and animal print appealed to me, though I hate the alpha. Of course I hate all alphas, so it’s not a deal breaker. A couple of days later, I saw a pair of jeans on sale and they were peach! Well they also seemed to work anyways, so I kept going with it. Then I pulled out a Tres Blah skin that looked ‘just a tad’ tarty, and wow the whole thing just worked, and there you go. I took these pictures in a gorgeous sim that was the first one I came across in the SL Destination Guide today. Yeah, I’m creative like that! I called it a walk in the woods after a favorite old children’s book of mine, and I imagine it’s a late spring evening, chilly enough for a scarf. I hope you like!

We take the pressure, and we throw away conventionality, belongs to yesterday.
There is a chance that we can make it so far.
We start believin’ now that we can be who we are. Grease is the word.
Grease is the word, is the word that you heard.
It’s got a groove, it’s got a meaning.
Grease is the time, is the place, is the motion.
Grease is the way we are feeling.
I was going to say a lot about missing the 90s and baby doll dresses and things of that sort but I got up at 3:30am and I’m not feeling very wordy at the moment.

This is a really great round with a variety of styles. I am in love with the two pairs of shoes I bought – the Ingenue pumps with their swirly Scorpio design, and the Decoy ankle boots are both amazing. Pink Outfitters offers a cute strapless top with a peplum bottom, which I’ve “toughened” a little with leather pants and the Decoy boots. Bilo has a great sweater dress, which I really like with heavy tights and the Ingenue pumps. Last but not least, Alice Project has released the Steph hair in two versions – with retro bangs or without.
Catch a ride to Zodiac and check out the event for yourself!

I was DJing my usual Sunday morning jazz set at The Velvet when Reverie Boucher, a friend of mine, dropped by wearing an outfit that I just loved. I liked it so much I asked her to let me blog her outfit. What’s funny is that Hybie also blogged the outfit on Monday – though in different colors and styled differently. Goes to show that you can wear the same thing and look very different depending on colors and accessories. The sweater and blouse from Tres Blah are a fabulous piece. In Second Life® as well as in our first life, pieces like these are investment pieces as they can be worn with so many things, casual or dresswear, with pants or skirts.
Seriously, this is the cutest outfit EVER. I sludged through the lag at Collabor88 but it was well worth it. So many adorable things there this month. I’m sure you’ll see all these things blogged a million times this month but who cares….I’m cute as shit.
This outfit makes me long for fall. I was just saying this morning over on plurk how I hate that So Cal doesn’t have seasons. I guess I will have to be content with living out my fall fantasies in SL.
