Pop!

This is just a random pic I took while fooling around the other day, but it turned out kinda cute.  I thought I’d share it because the individual pieces represent some of my favorite stores, and you definitely need to check them out.  Be sure to catch the full details after the cut…

Skin Love: DUTCH TOUCH MenSje

I have been casually mentioning my love for the new :: DUTCH TOUCH :: MenSje skin in my most recent posts, but I haven’t really gushed too much about it yet.  So I wanted to post a quick pic of the gorgeous new MenSje face and properly exclaim my love for it.  It has been a while since I found a DT face I just couldn’t live without, but this is definitely one of those faces.

52 Weeks of Color: #14 Black

I honestly did not know what to expect from black this week.  On one hand, there is no shortage of black in my inventory.  But on the other hand, the numerous options can be overwhelming.  Plus, I can’t deny that I have a love/hate relationship with black in SL.  Some creators do a true deep, dark black, but some do a faded, grayish black, so it can be hard to mix and match.  In the end, I fiddled around with my options until I finally gave up and decided to just keep it simple and classy.

52 Weeks of Color: #13 Emerald

I was pretty excited about this week’s emerald color challenge.  I am a May baby, therefore emerald is my birthstone.  Plus, being a redhead, emerald is definitely a good friend of mine.  However, my inventory didn’t have much emerald in it.  I had to really scour my inventory to find some good emerald pieces, but I also lucked into a fantastic new item that I’m so excited to share with you.

52 Weeks of Color: #12 Taupe


I’ve heard that a lot of people hate taupe, but I actually love it.  I’m a huge fan of earth tones, and being able to color block with taupe this week has made me super happy.  Call me boring if you like, but I love a nice, clean look.  And I am really digging the uniformity of this look as well as the simple elegance of these pieces meshed together.  Also, I’m still fooling around with shadows, so don’t hate on my pictures while I figure out what the hell I’m supposed to be doing, k?

Cold Winter Air

It has been a loooooong while since I posted a regular LOTD here outside of the 52 Weeks of Color Challenge, but I couldn’t sleep last night, so I played around with clothes instead.  I have been wanting to put together a winter weather look with this adorable sweater (because hunter green is a redhead’s best friend), but I didn’t want it to end up looking like a Christmas outfit.  However, I think this look worked out just fine for a late night/early morning clothing binge.

52 Weeks of Color: #4 Plum

We’re four weeks into the color challenge, and I’m having more and more fun each week.  I thought plum might be a bit difficult, mainly because there are so many different shades of purple to sift through in my inventory, but I really don’t think it was that bad.  I decided to delve into my inventory rather than searching the grid like crazy this week, so I stuck to my platform and searched my clothing folders for hours.  Since I like to mix and match, my plum outfit isn’t really plum through and through, but it does give an overall plum effect.  And I kinda like it that way.

Formal Feature: (Musashi-Do)

Ever since Shiryu Musashi came back to the grid and started releasing new designs under his label, Musashi-Do, I have been captivated by his talent.  His textures are truly exceptional, and his eye for style is amazing.  And when I saw that he would be releasing this gorgeous Brocade Princess gown, I knew it would find its way to this blog sooner or later.  I even blew the dust off my male alt, gave him a bit of a makeover, and dressed him up in a fantastic tux from Musashi-Do, too!  Click through for more…

Check-Swing

I grew up playing sports, so the term check-swing has an immediate sports connotation for me.  However, it’s also the name of this gorgeous coat I picked up at *COCO*.  I know I’ve been blogging *COCO* quite a bit lately, but the new releases at *COCO* are spot-on, and I love them.  And you know what?  I’m getting tired of hearing all of the rants about fashion bloggers consistently wearing items from the “big” stores.  Hey!  Guess what?  They’re “big” stores because they make amazing items like these.  And if I could make anything in SL that exhibited a mere fraction of the quality of items I’m seeing at *COCO*, AOHARU, etc., then I’d certainly want people to buy them and wear them.  And I hardly think it’s appropriate to discredit talented creators just because their shops are well-known and/or well-blogged.  /end rant

A Subdued Color Palette

Sometimes I just feel like wearing something really feminine, and I don’t see anything wrong with fully embracing it at times.  And something subtly sexy with muted undertones and a soft color palette always does the trick.
