I’m headed up to the mountains today so I thought that this sweater and short outfit from Baiastice would be just the thing to be warm and cute for my trip. It includes the stockings to keep your legs warm while you’re up in the higher elevations.
I had to wear my cowboy boots from G Field again. Because I love them. Continue reading
When I saw this lovely argyle print dress from Chantkare, I immediately thought of the argyle-lined jacket from Royal Blue. They really work perfectly together. You can find them both at Call For Couture which is raising funds for The Samaritans.
I shot the pictures at Lunamaruna – a little city that makes me think of Dr. Seuss. It’s great fun and worth a visit.

Cecilia, you’re breaking my heart
You’re shaking my confidence daily
Oh, Cecilia, I’m down on my knees
I’m begging you please to come home
The heartless Cecelia of Simon & Garfunkel’s lyrics could get away with running off with other men because she was so fascinating. If she were wearing the Cecilia gown from Azul, that would not hurt either. In this photo, I ran off to the Old Abbey at The Looking Glass – a gorgeous sim from Marcus Inkpen that is a delight to explore.

I thought since I started Hair Fair with Bliesen + Maitai I might as well lead off Jewelry Fair with them as well.
The Beauty and the Beast set is a very heavy weighted style earrings and necklace set, featuring images of the Beauty and the Beast in what would be a glass setting accented by beads and gold. Continue reading

It’s Thursday. This means the sun came up – and Truth released hair.
I hear the stiletto heels stomping madly toward his mainstore now.
Anyway, four styles, I’m wearing the Almond color today to shake it up.
There are two versions of the up-do Leighton – with hair down in back and without.
RUN GIRLS RUN! 🙂

There may have been a 30 second lapse of time between seen the notecard about the new releases of jewels and my desire to obtain them.
Maybe.
I’m a sucker for jewelry, LIKE EVERY SINGLE OTHER ONE OF YOU DON’T LIE TO ME.
And when I find jewelry that makes me believe it been rented from Harry Winston, well, then I’m like a pot-head in Amerstdam. Continue reading

I always like to think I’m thorough before contacting a creator that something is wrong, simply because the problem usually exists between the keyboard and the chair.
But I slipped into the Shades of October shrug the other day and my first thought was, hmmm, where is the shirt? So then I’m slapping on other layers, and no matter what I did, I was all boobs in the wind – wearing a lovely shrug.
I’d had a problem a couple of days before with another creator’s stuff – the textures were borked and didn’t work so I kind of thought that might be going on, and IM’d Auguste Finair of Shades of October. She asked me if it was like the picture, and I said ,no I’m topless.
And promptly SENT her a topless pic of myself wearing the shrug. (She will probably sell it to you for a good price). Continue reading

I thought I’d take today to celebrate Sn@tch. Specifically MY Sn@tch.
Yes, this is in fact the best looking outfit in all of the Sn@tchdom.
It’s the GIDGE outfit, put together from several different releases of Ivey’s to make my personal favorite girly look. Continue reading
As a devoted Project Runway fan who has never missed an episode, I can remember dozens of outfits that impressed me coming down the runway only to crash into the Valley of Bad Design once the model turned and walked back to the curtain. A few episodes back Tim Gunn proffered some of his best advice ever, reminding the designer that good design is 360 degrees – looking good from all angles. Well, some designers he does not have to remind about that are Royal Blue’s Marni Grut and Kenzie & Co.’s Kenzie Craven. These clothes were created by designers so cognizant that good design looks great from the back and sides as well as the front, that I decided to showcase this look from the back.
The Kenzie & Co. Zipper Racerback is the most obviously designed with attention to the back – but look at the lovely Jodhpurs on Crack from Royal Blue – they make your bum look good and the houndstooth detailing adds interest coming and going. The photos were taken at The Looking Glass – a new build from Marcus Inkpen
