Fameshed for The Arcade

It’s happened. The flurry of lindens stimulating the economy are flowing as everyone goes MAD collecting at THE ARCADE and picking up the amazing new releases in mesh at FAMESHED.

I thought the billiards dress from Trompe Loeil (The Arcade) might be a bit too masculine for my girly abode but no, I put some flowers and myself on it and it’s plenty girly. Cory Edo is mad for cute drawer pulls, these are adorable as well. Continue reading

My Linden Place In The Sun

I found this flamingo in my inventory and could not resist not even a little bit. It’s a perfect way to spend my beautiful day in the government housing I actually call home.  Further proof that a life of luxury and leisure is not impossible in the linden ghetto, I suppose. Continue reading

Retrofitting Club Gear

If I Were Clubbing_001

Digging through my inventory you might find a lot more items from Nomine that you’d imagine. Most of them are things I bought some time ago and the quality is too good for me to find a reason to trash outright. Continue reading

A Lazy and Rainy Sunday Indeed

Cuppa Coffee and a Snack? Sure

A:S:S (that’s Another Shirt Store) has released a set of their Lazy A:S:S pajamas for Lazy Sunday in special colors and if it’s rainy and cloudy in your second existence as it is in mine, you’ll be glad of them to snuggle up into.

Is that coffee cannister right? I don’t even know. Every time I rezz it that’s all it does. Shrug. Seems wrong. Continue reading

A Funny Story

AAAAAAND Stretch

The RL conspired to keep me off the grid most of the weekend. Which is just as well because RL>SL yet, I missed my virtual piece of sanity. So I enjoyed wrapping up my Sunday evening with a little relaxation in my new Lazy Ass Pajamas from A:S:S – literally Pho – the grid needs more pajamas that don’t make you look like a 20 dollar hooker. Well done. Continue reading

Because of Barnesworth Anubis…

Because of Barnesworth Anubis

 

I was absolutely taken back in time with the set of retro furniture released by Barnesworth Anubis for Collabor88.

My own Uncle George, the mecca of style and culture from my childhood, owned almost EXACTLY this furniture.

He’d designed and built a house, with a proper formal double parlour. One half of the room was southwestern, with lots of amazing things from his trips to Mexico displayed all over. The other half though, was this amazing post modern blue and white SQUARE funiture.

Paired with bleached blonde wood (allegedly from Sweden) he even had a blonde piano in that half of the room. The furniture was leather, but felt like glossy plastic. As though someone had made furniture out of patent leather shoes, yet it was in fact true leather. He polished it every week with a special product he had shipped in from somewhere.

Is It a Crime To Be So Happy?

This wasn’t lounging furniture. This was sitting up properly and visiting after dinner furniture. Or receiving guests furniture. Or listening to the piano being played furniture.

The animals WERE NOT allowed on the furniture.

I suppose that accounts for my small rebellion above. I hope he forgives me.

So because of Barnesworth Anubis, I had a stroll down memory lane. It made me a little teary and a little happy.  I wish I had that damn furniture now.

Calming Neutrals And New Beginnings

Barnesworth Anubis created the Haight Apartment Skybox clearly to remind me how lovely simplicity and freeing myself from clutter can be.

It’s spring, and it’s time to slough off those dead skin cells, rid yourself of those dark winter colors and embrace the warmth of the world coming alive again. Continue reading
