We Just Go in Circles
Just kinda felt like blogging, so here’s a simple, feminine look for you. I’ve been on a skirt kick lately, and I absolutely love this one (which is actually part of a dress.) Plus, I needed to show off some of my hair fair finds in regular LOTD style, so here’s the first! Enjoy!
Hair Fair Faves: Mid-Length & Long Hairstyles
I’m back with my last installment of Hair Fair goodies. I merged the mid-length and long hairstyles together for this post, because I didn’t find as many of each that I would wear on a regular basis. It seems this year’s Hair Fair had a LOT of braids, ponies, piggies, and short hairstyles, but not so many mid-length and long hairstyles that I would wear. So, here are my faves, and if you haven’t been to the Hair Fair yet, you better get on that because it closes in a few days!
Hair Fair Faves: Updos
I’m slowly, but surely, working on my five total installments of Hair Fair Faves, and I’m here with my 2nd installment filled with my favorite updos. I hope you enjoy them!
Cabaret
Bronson and I decided to challenge each other to think a bit outside of our normal blogging box. If you know anything about me, you know that I have a particular style, and I’m not too ballsy about venturing outside of it. Nothing wrong with that… I just know what I like. But it’s always fun to try something new, and Bronson challenged me to try to pull of a cabaret look a la Liza Minnelli. I posed my own challenge to him, which you can see on his blog over at (ir)regular guy. And, trust me, he kicked my ass in this challenge. But it was still fun, and I love the look I created. So we both win!
GLITTERATI Headshot 2 Poses
I am SO excited for today’s SL Daily Deal! Katey Coppola of GLITTERATI has released a SECOND set of headshot specific poses, and they are just plain awesome! These new poses are similar in concept to her previous Headshot poseset, but this time the poses position your whole body to create interesting and unique headshots. There are ten poses in the set, and there are different hand morphs for a majority of the poses, giving you tons and tons of options!
New Store Alert: NIAVI
Zoe Demar and Niavi Toxx just launched an awesome new brand in SL, NIAVI. I have known about the launch for some time now, and I have been so excited to get a sneak peek at this brand new line of clothing. And I have to admit that I was not disappointed in the least. In fact, I was quite impressed at the quality of these new goods. I wanted to show you a selection of the new offerings, so there are four more looks and full style details after the cut.
Snuggle Me
Something about this outfit, specifically the fuzzy coat, just makes me feel like I’d be the perfect candidate for warm snuggles. Don’t I look so nice and toasty? I first saw this awesome coat on Lizzie’s blog, and I immediately fell in love with it. Truth be told, it’s one of my favorite items this winter, and I couldn’t resist using it to throw together a snuggly ensemble.
A Little Bit Retro
I’ve noticed that my looks tend to be muted and neutral, and I rarely give a huge color splash. So I decided to put together a look with a bit more color than usual, and I ended up with this retro feel. But I like it, and I think the pieces work well together. Sometimes you just have to go where the outfit takes you.
Formal Feature: -Phoenix Rising- Lile’s Impression
I have been a bad blogger lately, but I’m working my way through my inventory in an effort to finally get everything in my “to be blogged” folder photographed and posted. And in the process, I’m finding some wonderful items! Take this gown for example: it is one of the most stunning formal gowns I’ve seen on the grid, and I can’t believe it was just hiding away in my inventory! Yay for pleasant surprises!
Review: – BEBAE – Erin
New releases at - BEBAE – are always highly anticipated, especially by me. Yet, somehow this one flew in under the radar and snuck up on me! How is that even possible?!?!? I didn’t see it coming, but it was definitely a pleasant surprise!
It’s in the Name
Let me just say this…and I mean this from the bottom of my heart…I have the BEST Plurk friends EVER. Seriously, I cannot tell you how many amazing SL people I have met through Plurk, and they have really enriched my life in more ways that I could have ever imagined. And one of my absolute favorite friends that I have met through Plurk is hands-down Leah McCullough of .:Naive:.
Hair Fair Faves – Long Hairstyles
The long hairstyles from the Hair Fair have been some of my favorite finds of all. In fact, a couple of these hairstyles are my absolute favorites from the entire fair. Care to guess which ones?
Hair Fair Faves – Braids, Ponies & Piggies
Hair Fair 2009 is finally here, and I braved the 4 sims this weekend to spend WAY too many lindens on hair upon hair upon even more hair! I thought I would show you my favorite finds at the fair, so this is the first post in a mini-series I’m calling my Hair Fair Faves. I’ve grouped the posts by hairstyle and decided to go with Braids, Ponies & Piggies for my first installment. Enjoy!
Subdued
I have a tendency to be a little dress-happy, but I have been a good girl and have tried to scale back my frequency of wearing dresses in the past few months. But, I desperately wanted to wear a dress today, and I couldn’t control myself any longer. So, here you go…it’s a dress happy day!
Four Seasons Challenge
A couple of days ago, Cajsa Lilliehook, esteemed SL fashionista and photographer, issued a Four Seasons Challenge to the masses. I thought this was a terrific idea for a challenge, so I quickly jumped on the bandwagon and started assembling an outfit for each season using one item in common: the adorable Roxy Bermuda Shorts from [PINK OUTFITTERS]. I thought it would be really cool and challenging to try to use a pair of shorts in all four seasons, but this task was a bit more difficult than I expected. Details for all four looks are after the cut…
