Plastic Flowers That Fight for Color

I realized something about my blog today.  It’s supposed to be a reflection of me, yet I’ve completely abandoned one of the most significant parts of my life: music.  When I want to be alone, when I want to escape from everything that yesterday threw at me, music is my safe haven.  So I’m going to try to share a little bit more of myself with you here by incorporating some of the music that keeps me going.  I don’t have many words to share today, but one of my favorite songs as well as full style details for this look follow the cut.  The lyrics say plenty.

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!

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.

What to Wear?

Getting dressed and undressed in SL isn’t quite the same as in RL.  In fact, it’s much different.  In SL, I can quickly move from fully dressed to fully undressed to halfway dressed in a number of different pieces that don’t even match.  And I can do it all in a matter of seconds while standing in my front yard and manage NOT to get the cops called on me.  But the same is not true at all in RL.  And although I don’t exactly NEED a discreet place to change in SL, I definitely welcome the privacy, and this awesome new Glam Dressingroom from :[MudHoney]: Designs appeals to me in so many ways.

Who’s That Girl?

This outfit came together sort of accidentally last night, so I thought I’d snap a few pictures and post it.  It’s a cute and sassy look, and all of the pieces are really well-made.  And I think this is the perfect look to kick off the weekend!

Baby, It’s Cold Outside

There’s no denying that I love cold weather in RL.  And honestly, cold weather looks in SL are probably my favorites because I love to layer.  Not only is it a great opportunity to showcase as many designers as possible when you’re layering, but cold weather looks are so damned cute and snuggly, too!  Who couldn’t love them?

Stacie’s Strength

It has been my experience that we, as fashion bloggers, are truly blessed with wonderful, caring, talented, and extremely generous designers.  Honestly, without the designers and the amazing things they do for the fashion community, I wouldn’t have much to talk about in this silly little blog of mine.  So, it should come as no surprise that I, or we, might become accustomed to the status quo.  Spoiled, if you will.  Yet, there are also times when we’re totally blown away, caught off our guards, truly surprised by something.  And this is one of those times for me.

Ashoka Eales, of Phoenix Rising, surprised me with this amazing new set of outfits named Stacie’s Strength, in my honor.  Simply put, I am surprised, shocked, and blown away.  And to be honest, I’m so emotional right now that I’m struggling to write this blog post.  So please bear with me, because this topic touches very close to home for me.  Those of you who know me on a close, personal basis probably know why Ashoka might see something in me that most people don’t.  And to those of you who don’t really have a clue what I’m talking about, I apologize for being so vague.  However, I’d never want to be accused of flaunting my own disadvantage, so I’ll just leave it at that and show you the amazingly versatile stylings of Stacie’s Strength instead.

Review: [ PXL ] July

I have been looking forward to the new July skin line at [ PXL ] Creations for quite a bit now.  Although my male alt, Ethan, wears [ PXL ] Jude, I was actually a [ PXL ] skin virgin.  But the July previews looked so awesome that I knew I needed to try this new skin, and I’m amazed at how much I love it.  This is Hart’s best skin yet, so you definitely need to check it out!

Review: Bebae Fabia

I’m always a fan of Torie Senne‘s gorgeous skins at BEBAE, and when I hear she has something in the works, it never fails to excite me!  I have been looking forward to her beautiful Fabia skins for some time now, and I have to admit that it was well worth the wait!

Swank

I really hesitated to buy this poncho from [LeLutka].  I didn’t know if it would work on  my avatar or if it would be a nightmare to fit or if it would end up looking bulky on me.  But I decided it was worth a try, and it turns out that I absolutely love it!  YAY for taking risks!
