It’s a good day for singin’ a song!

I feel like I’ve been away from this blog forever! If you read my personal blog, you know why. If you don’t…well, what’s wrong with you? LOL! Kidding! Let’s get on with the good stuff! Well, and some bad stuff. But it’s mostly good stuff.

Style - It's a good day for singin a song

After many years on the grid, and many years of being my “Almost Always” posemaker, Adorkable Peapod is closing her store. SADFACE. She has been one of my favorite favorite posers for ages and although I know this is the best thing for her, I can’t help but think “What about ME!” There is a closing sale at aDORKable Poses until June 9th, so be sure to go pick up some goodies. Thanks for all the years of being the best!

Truth Hawks released some great new hair this week along with his brand new textures! The textures are truly lovely, and although I might have given him some sh!t for taking away the 2 colors I wear most, I do really like the new colors. But shhh, don’t tell him I said that. I fell in love with the Lotus hair because I’ve been doing a side braid a lot in RL lately.

The Boutique opened up for a new round and I’m loving the new Cupcake jewelry from Cae and this awesome Lotus Crown from Noodles! The cool part is that my Cupcake ring fits just fine in between my new Diversity ring set from Stellar! There are several separate rings in the set so you can move them around however you’d like. What in the world did we do before we were just (Read more...)

Keep it basic, b!tches

I’m having a case of insomnia tonight, so I thought I’d do Magenta’s Basics, B!tches meme. I almost called her Skittles, which I guess would be what most everyone else knows her as, but in case you went to her blog and were like “Skittles? It says her name is Magenta! What’s going on?!” then I wanted to save you any misunderstanding.

Um, anyway.

So Skittles wanted to know what our basics are. What do we go to first, what do we not leave the house with, etc. These are mine!

Keep it basic, b!tches

[Btw, I barely did a single bit of body editing to this pic, which makes me itchy. I did smooth out that jutting angle in my calf, though. I'm not totally crazy.]

I’m pretty simple, if that hasn’t been obvious in this blog. But when I’m not blogging, I’m even more simple and it’s not uncommon for me to stay in an outfit for days if I’m not blogging, OR switching back into a “more comfortable” outfit right after a blog post. I don’t know why. :-p

Hair: I wear Truth hair pretty much 90% of my SLife. I’m most often in his Swedish blonde, but lately I’ve been doing the Fairyfloss color. Someone asked me why recently, and the only answer I can give is that it makes me happy. My second favorite hairs come from Wasabi Pills, and I have to admit, I am really liking the new textures from Exile. But Truth hairs fit my head the best. This one is Haven and it’s the one I reach for almost immediately these d (Read more...)

Strong Like Bull

Hey hey, it’s almost May! Jane dropped some great new releases recently and Zodiac is going strong. Strong like bull!

Style - Strong Like Bull

The Day Trip dress from Jane is one of those beauties that you can totally dress up or down, whatever your style is in that moment. I really love versatile pieces and this is definitely that kind of dress!

I totally fell in love with the Andorra necklace that appears to be a collaboration piece between LouLou & Co and Virtual Insanity for Zodiac. It’s girly enough for someone like me, but still has an edge to it.

I took these photos out at Cica Ghost’s Rust exhibit. It’s really a cool build, so I suggest checking it out.

Have a great end of April!

Refreshments In The Garden

The Garden starts tomorrow!! Yeahhhh!! This is a home and garden event, and oh my gosh, is it going to be a great one!

Style - Refreshments In The Garden

What Next has brought us this super cute Garden Cafe Caravan and I am just in love with it! It’s just all kinds of adorable, and even if you don’t have the need to have the full set out all of the time, there are several cute pieces that you can grab from the set and use in your home.

Collabor88 is still going strong, and the Spring Halters from Auxiliary are a total necessity for your spring and summer wardrobe! I love that they show JUST enough skin to feel all warm weather wonderful, but not so much that you would think that your boobs are about to fall out.

Hope you all had a great weekend!

I know, I know. We JUST got to spring and already I’m thinking about summer?? I can’t help it! I’m a total summer girl! When I tried on the new Nox jumper in Candy from Coldlogic yesterday, I immediately thought, “Oh, that’s a summer vacation outfit …

It’s Time To Begin

The first day of Spring is rapidly approaching, and I am thrilled! I love the start of new seasons, but spring is a special favorite because it is such a rebirth of life. In my opinion, of course. :) And I’m also just so happy with all the lovely spring clothes that are hitting the grid!

Style - It's Time To Begin

Gos Boutique‘s new Lolita espadrilles are ridiculously cute and so very very perfect for spring! If you remember, Gos had espadrilles years ago, but these ones look even MORE amazing because they are mesh and have the foot & sheath so that it fits a LOT better than the old ones did. The espadrilles also use the Colour+ system, meaning that if you buy one pair in blue and later buy one pair in red, you can mix and match the colors of the ribbon, seam, toecap, and laces using the included HUD. I’m only wearing mine in Dusk Blue, but I had a ball mixing up all the colors to get a bright and cheerful look! These shoes are exclusive to The Boutique currently.

OneBadPixel released some new items recently, including these fab Cuffed Denim shorts, which I’m wearing in a floral print. I had a pair almost exactly like this in RL when I was younger! These shorts fit SO well, too! Sometimes mesh shorts tend to give me a really super huge bubble butt or cut off weirdly, but these are perfect!

Drift is one of those stores where every time they come out with something new, I just get super happy! I’m wearing the new Hangover tank, which is just a cute strappy tank that (Read more...)

Could I Take The Bullet

I spent Saturday afternoon reading a free novel on my Kindle and the main girl in the book was a this rich girl who had some of the most amazing outfits. Later I found out the author is big into Polyvore, which explains it. But in the book, this beautiful girl with the amazing outfits has to face kidnapping and being put into hiding. As I was getting my outfit together, I kept thinking about her. I think she would have liked this. Hopefully you do, too!

Thin line between dreams and memories

I’ll admit, I am a home decorating junkie! I pick up so much home and garden stuff, it is probably the biggest folder in my entire inventory, and that’s really saying something if you’ve ever seen my inventory. Collabor88 gave me another H&G fix this month because there are some cute cute things for all your decorating needs.
