Bunneah Love
December 20, 2008
Hehehe…I normally don’t post ready made outfits since I showcase my own, and for that, I think my crush on Katat0nik’s work has gone ‘secret’ until now. Her dresses fulfill the little girl in me as well as the artist: impeccable, eternally cute, completely original work. I’ve yet to meet a girl who hasn’t fallen in love with the colorful, dolly dresses and for good reason. A friend inspired me to post about the new Bunny Dress, when I ran into her in the store, humming and hawing about which shoes/hair/stockings to wear with the new set. There are ways to add your own original touch to big statement pieces like this, ways to make the look cuter, more feminine, or quirkier. I myself love statement pieces and am drawn to lush colors, eye pleasing patterns and odd, original wears. There are a million and one ways to wear this dress, you can even ditch the blouse altogether and add a new one. Other gloves, or nail polish and prim nails instead. Maybe a hat or headdress. And those Lazy Places boots we all love so much. So, if there is a piece of advice I can give you, it’d be to brave it out and go for the statements sometimes. I’ll always keep a (large) stash of versatile basics in my wardrobe, but in there too are feather boas, bright prints, sequins (yup.) and many Katat0nik dresses. Nothing can replace a good statement! Viva!!

Odd Little School Girl
December 15, 2008
I love this outfit. What with my new favorite skin by MiaSnow (Jasmine!!!), the cool GriBon skirt (it has 3 built-in belt color options) and the Lazy Places Holiday boots (‘nough said!), I am one happy girl. Sometimes my outfits have no rhyme or reason, I just throw on what I like until it feels right, and this was certainly that type of outfit. In the end, I have this sort of odd looking school girl look. Funny how people fall in love with certain things, as this may not be my most favorite’d outfit by some, it’s one I wore for a day and a half RL time, which says a lot about how much I like it. hehehe. Hope you enjoy! xoxo

Roughing It
December 12, 2008
I love glamour and style. I also love the outdoors and nature. This is a fun, fantastic outfit with a little bit of rough edging. I wouldn’t have it any other way! ;))
My Irish Cottage made a good backdrop for the shoot. It’s always fun (in my opinion, the *best*) to shoot at home. It’s just such a warm, comfortable way to get things done. ;p
The skin is from the fabulous [/ NoLabel /] store, which I adore. Everything in the store is amazing and you won’t be disappointed. The skin is a new favorite for sure, as are the Poetic Colors eyes. A-mazing and unequaled in SL. The bag is from the new Cachet line everyone’s talking about, and with good reason. It really is that good! The rest is a compilation of favorites. You can never go wrong, so long as you love what you wear! xo

Oh Coco
December 11, 2008
A little post I threw together…I should title it, “What I wore today…” since this outfit wasn’t put together especially for the blog. I think there’s a certain fascination surrounding the ‘normal goings on’ of people. I always love when I get a peek into someone’s ‘normal daily life’ or their handbag. I suppose this is dipping my toe into that idea pool. I do wear my blogged outfits, so you know, just a lot is worn off the blog. Mostly it has to do with time, blogging takes a lot of time. Ask any blogger how much time the spend on a post, and the results will surprise you. Why do we do it? Out of our love for it, our readers, the pleasure of helping out. Some like the attention too, but I’ll tell you the truth, I can walk around safely without getting noticed for the most part. My motivation is love love love. xo

Grey Matter
December 4, 2008
One of my favorite things about the blog is being able to tell you about cool new places I’ve stumbled upon. This is the case with ~ Scribble ~. I was in Harajukubox looking for furniture, when I stumbled upon Radio Signals’ super cute little shop. It’s one of those places that make me really excited. There is clear vision, interesting items and everything is done custom and really, really well. After a little shopping I discovered she has a whole sim (!!) dedicated to her vision. It just opened a week ago and is already looking fantastic The whole place is dark, but warm, lots of black and white with bits of color here and there, from her products mostly, with little surprises thrown in. My kind of place!! I had the pleasure of meeting Radio who I instantly adored. She even played some Björk for me while I shopped. (Some people just know how to rub me the right way. ;)
I immediately bought the tiny top hat. (I have this whole mini-collection going, they really do go with everything..) And the laid back hat w/hair. She also has amazing lights, like lamps which plug into and out of the wall with a click, a cute christmas tree with color change festivities, and a dock complete with lighting. If I ever get hitched in SL, it’s going to be on that dock. haha. There’s more to come, including clothing!! Until then, scoop up the yoyo, the slip on shoes, the bloomers, the long socks…I know I have. Explore, take pictures, stop into the cafe and write on the chalk board. (btw, I’ve never seen a chalkboard like this in SL before.) While you’re at it, go upstairs into the next building and check out the amazing Neko ears and tails made by Radio’s friend Philo, they are so cute and really well made and come with cool accessories like piercings. Meow. ~ Scribble ~ is definitely one of my favorite new sims, and I am certain we will be hearing a lot more about Radio and her vision in the future.
Inspired by the scenery, I decided to make a greyscale outfit to photograph on location. How could I pass up a shoot in this sim? It’s gorgeous. Hope you enjoy! xo
