Do Not Stare DIRECTLY At This Cleavage

posted by Gidge Uriza

When Claire Harford released her SSV3 skins at Symphony Skins, she made sure to includ a busty vs. normal version with – as you can see – some bombass cleavage built in to the busty version.

It might blind you, look carefully – shading your eyes with a shadow box. Continue reading

Apocalypse Chic

When Miffy came over to the new It’s Only Fashion Blogging Headquarters and Day Spa (a photosphere on the bottom of the ocean in Glookbone back where we began MDR 18 months ago) I asked her if I could shoot her outfit for the blog. Sometimes I can really admire how someone styles herself – even if would never opt for that style – simply because of the utter commitment to her concept.  That’s what engages me with this outfit – that, and the quality of the components beginning with this amazing backpack from Tonktastic.

I Too, Love Evie's Closet

posted by Gidge Uriza

So I’ve been drooling all week watching Cajsa break out the Evie’s closet love. One of the great things about blogging with a partner is that although we do like alot of the same stores – we often shop at places the other places has never heard of/never goes to. So you get great exposure to other shops that you might have taken months to find.

Such as Evie’s. I’m notorious for hearing of a place and then never making it over.  I know……all you creators love my attention span, right?

This heavy velvet medieval gown is probably better suited for Christmas time and madrigals but I just can’t care. I am completely enamored of it, and was the second it rezzed in her store. This gorgeous gown set me back exactly L$500…….which is NUTS considering it’d be L$1500 at other shops  for such incredible quality and gorgeous, rich design. Continue reading

Quick Look – Zenith Summer Dress at Don't Ask

posted by Gidge Uriza

When I wasn’t looking, Miffyhoi Rosca went in and dumped a ton of news in the store. I suppose it’s because she’s in Hong Kong and I’m exactly 12 hours opposite that we often are just ships passing in the night that I missed it.

Oh, and the fact that I’m a bad store owner and don’t do a daily walk through.  Continue reading

Retiring, or Receiving a Guest?

posted by Gidge Uriza

Well…….a LADY wouldn’t tell you, now would she?

I fastidiously collect pajamas, and nightgowns, and robes, and was absolutely delighted to find this special offer at Indigo Blue on the Sxy2nd Sim as part of their grand opening extravaganza. It’s a complete trousseau of lingerie with a dressing gown.

Probably more appropriate for your SECOND SL Marriage……..eh? Continue reading

Sundays Are For Exploring & a Photo Tip

Sundays are probably when I spend the most time just playing on the grid, exploring sims and generally just having a lot of fun before heading over to the Velvet for Maht’s DJ session that I know will always be a fun and interesting set. This Sunday’s set featured singers and bands from Chicago – and it was a revelation how much great music comes from the Windy City considering he didn’t play any blues.  I dressed in a hurry for the session, but love the look that came together. Afterwards, I headed out to Sasy Scarborough’s new digs:

Party Pansies

Last night Gidge’s husband Silo threw a Rez Day bash to celebrate his second year in Second Life. The theme was Guilty Pleasures – those songs you love but are too embarassed to admit it.  Well-named I have to say. Requests were sent in ahead and were played anonymously – and very few owned up to their requests. Still, it was the most interesting playlist I have every DJ’ed and we had a lot of fun. I wore this lovely dress – as spring-like and feminine as they come.

Who Is The Meanest Girl In The Room?

OOOOO! I KNOW! PICK ME! I KNOW I KNOW!

OOOOO! I KNOW! PICK ME! I KNOW I KNOW!

posted by Gidge Uriza

One of the great benefits of living your SL in a swaddle of love and kindness is that no one ever sees you coming when you pull out your real evil self.

But sometimes, it’s fun to dress up your girly girl AV who adorns herself in pink chiffon as much as possible, in something like the COWBOY BOOTS OF  EVIL (god how much do I love Ivey for this name? – I BOUGHT THEM WITHOUT HARDLY LOOKING AT THEM – SOLELY BCSE THE NAME POPPED UP AS I CAMMED AROUND).

To a Butterfly

This dress from Magnolia is an Ode to Butterflies with its lovely embroidered green and bronze butterflies on the sheer overskirt. Butterflies appliqued on top of more butterflies form the hem.

I’ve watched you now a full half-hour;
Self-poised upon that yellow flower
And, little Butterfly! indeed
I know not if you sleep or feed.
How motionless!–not frozen seas
More motionless! and then
What joy awaits you, when the breeze
Hath found you out among the trees,
And calls you forth again!

Leaping Leopards

Animal prints are ever more popular – in both lives – and this lovely cocktail dress from PinUp Dolls is an expert and elegant use of leopard print in a dress. Just enough to add pop and zest, but not enough to add even a scintilla of skankiness.

It’s much better to go all out on the leopard with the lingerie, like this from Reasonable Desires, where you really want to show your wild side.
