That Rocker Chick...

Every week as I do my walk around the Retrology SIM, I check out the shops for new finds. This week I was delighted to see that "Punch Drunk" had a new outfit, and boy was I game. I love a little Rock in my wardrobe, and this look had the Grunge, the Glam, the Punk, and the Pizazz! Paired with this "MUST HAVE" Armidi hair, The Roxy, I felt like a Punk Rock Princess! Throw in some arm warmers, a little Gothic Lolita necklace and some chunky boots and I was good to go!

Camping Out!

For the "Camping Out" Event at PIN UPS, I raided the Closet for my best cold weather camping look. This Jacket, a favorite, from "Little Rebel" screams Lumberjack's Daughter to me! I paired it with these great Cargo Khakis from "Fashionably Dead" and some sturdy boots from "Jeepers Creepers". I love this Hair/Hat combo from "PushButton Industries", and think it adds just enough funk to the look to make it mine. I dashed over to "RUST" for a backpack, and came up with this great one at a very reasonable price (< $100L!). I'm ready to Hike!

Is It Too Early For A Tea Party?

A Gorgeous Lace Dress from Neferia Abel's "~Ivalde~" inspired this Tea Party ready ladylike look. The Sculpted Flower Accent on the waist is so fabulous, you really don't need a lot of accessories for a complete look. A soft long curly style for my hair from "Armidi" was in keeping with the romantic feminine look of this dress, which also comes in a gown look. A knotted pearl necklace says "Lady Who Lunches"... I am looking to buy a silver tea service now so I can have the Girls over for finger sandwiches and petite fours.

Dandelion Dolly!

I was feeling a little silly and wanted to really "cute-up"! This adorable Babydoll dress from "Devilish Cupcakes" can be done up a number of ways, but I went for a funky look by pairing it with Electric Purple Tights and Hi-Hi Top Platform Chucks Sneakers. The Hair, from the amazing "Curl Up And Dye Salon" is just too cute, and I was going for the giggles on this one! Just a sweet fun take on the Babydoll dress.

Rockabilly Red!

For my weekly set at "Rumble in Brighton", a UK Based Rock N' Roll Club, I went pure oldskool Rockabilly! That means pulling out the heavy "/artilleri/", like this fabulous 'Vicky Dress' with optional patch on the jacket layer in about 8 different options! These were my first Tattoos in SL, perhaps the most expensive too, and absolutely worth every single Linden, Canimal makes the best bright coloured ink tats in SL. Rockabilly hair is what "Old Gravy" is all about, and this style named 'Jersey Girl' comes with a pile of optional headbands or flowers, like the ones I have chosen. A few funky accessories and I am all set to go!

A Doll On Christmas

I felt like a doll the minute I put on this sweet felt dress from "Swallowtail". It is adorable in it's almost "Arts & Crafts" feel, and it was hard to decide which one to get since all four colour options are completely different and equally amazing. the new 'Knit Beads Necklace' also from swallowtail is perfection, and I chose it in white since it was Modable and I knew I could tint it and wear it endlessly this way. Adorable dresses call for adorable Mary Jane's Shoes, and these Clogs from "Shiny Things" have just the right feel. Like a little girl playing dress-up, this made me feel like a sweet little doll on Christmas morning!

A Sweater and Some Leather

After putting all my paper Couture on display, I settled with this outfit, the "Leather and Wool" for my look of the day. The sexy sheen of leather and this close fit cowl neck sweater are just so classy and sexy. Of course, a cowl neck calls for a sexy short style, and "Armidi" is the answer with 'The Poynter', probably my favorite style of the moment. Sultry make-up in sizzling
dusky reds complete the "Femme Fatale" look nicely.

What's In My Closet - Paper Couture!

When it comes to Second Life Couture, there is just something magical about "Paper Couture". The Lu sisters are endlessly attentive to details and use all the system layers to perfection, with intricate and wonderful prim work, and quality texturing and hand-painting, there is simply nothing else like it. I have loved collecting these outfits to wear, but also because I think they are a form of art. Similar to the best Couturier in real life, these are collectible pieces, and what makes these outfits so brilliant, is that you can pull them apart and use pieces in other looks in your wardrobe so easily. Gown, Outfits, Shoes, Jewelry, Handbags... all done with that quality designer touch you would expect from a shop with "Couture" in the name. (Note: This term is bandied about all together too much in SL, I once saw someone label a slingshot bikini as "Couture", seriously people!)

Causual Morning In The Abyss

Christmas morning is the perfect time to throw on a relaxed track suit and chill out at home. I had been looking for an opportunity to wear this one, from , and I love the combination of gray and rich burgundy. The Hood is sculpted perfectly in my opinion. Add a pair of casual flats, these from Boing Fromage are MUST HAVES, for their endless color changeable options.

A Golden Baby Doll Coat

Sometimes a great coat is all you need to make an outfit. This goldenrod plaid wonder from "Argyle" is just adorable and needs little more than some black leggins and boots to make a complete look. The hait, a fabulous freebie from "Maitreya" upon the openinf of their new Mainstore is just too great to be believed. I picked up the chunky fabulus bracelet from "Swallowtail" on my last outing, and it's gold matches the coat so well I had to throw it on.

Jitter Bug Doll

For a "Pretty in Pink" Event, I took my oppotunity to go a Retro with this adorable Dress from "Total Betty" chosed for me by my husband Draco who said, "You hardly ever wear pink". The hair is simply fabulous, from Betty Doyle of Ingenue, and it makes the Retro image complete. Some retro stocking and a pair of slingbacks from 1-800-Bettie's finish the outfit off nicely. I always like to add my personal touches, some punky piercings to contrast with the squeaky clean Retro Doll look make it all me!

What's In My Closet - The Look Of Ivalde

If I had to name the Designer that I indulge in the most in Second Life, it is without a doubt Neferia Abel's ~Ivalde~. She creates looks from Victorian to Modern Day, From Ancient Egypt to 50s' Era Poodle Skirts and literally everything in between. Nef and I have become friends since her shop first came to PIN UPS, one of the first Vendors we had, and now she has a very important place on Retrology. She is a lovely person, endlessly creative, generous and kind, and has a joy and energy about her that shows in her work. Her clothes speak for themselves, and here is a look at all the items that have spoken to me when I enter her shops.

Cozy Knit Cap Cutie!

This is possibly the cutest Cap/Hair combo in the existence of SL! The "Karlie" knit cap from "Slow Tempo" seems to look great on almost everyone I have seen it on, and is so reasonably priced, it is a must have this winter season (comes in several cap and hair colour combos). A cozy detailed Sheepskin coat matches the cap well, and then a nice worn pair of denims from TULI make the outfit complete.

Into the Forest

I loved this Cropped Leather Jacket on sight, but the colours were so great I almost got two. I settled on this Lush Forest Green and think it looks fab! Paired with a simple Camisole set and some worn jeans, I was able to play a bit with a whimsical earring, these cassette earrings from "Electric Jane's" are just too cute! Pulled up hair from Armidi lets the Jacket Collar show nicely, and some basic buckled boots (foot part only) mean I am ready to rock!

Passion for Purple

A Cozy Purple Wrap Sweater (with Brooch) from "Nylon Outfitters" makes this look Soft and Cuddly while still Sexy and fun. Nylon is great for Handpainted clothing, and I love to pair it up with some photoreal looks to acheive a really unique effect. These glasses, from /artilleri/ are the perfect match to this almost bookishly sexy look, and I must admit now that I own all of Antonia Marat's eyewear in fatpack for the endless colour and style options. Some sculpted flats from L&E give a little polish and a lot of class to this casual look.

These Boots Are Made For... Me!

When the Best in Boots event rolled around at PIN UPS, I got a chance to wear these fabulous new Chunky Boots from "Shiny Things". They are brilliant, and even more so since they have HUD Controled colour-able ribbon laces. You can choose from 6 different colours, and extra HUDs are available in store. Paired with a Matte Red Tight from Creamshop and a great Sweater Dress from "Elle", the boots are the thing!

Anniversary Gown

I had been waiting for a special occasion to wear this lovely Gown from "LeeZu Baxter" and my 10 Month Anniversary with my beloved husband Draco was just such an event. We went dancing, and this dress requires little in the way of accesories since the optional Cape Jacket speaks volumes. These earrings from "Diamonde." are favorites, and go with the edgy style of LeeZu's looks so well. This dress is even more brilliant for it's options, a cocktail and gown version, cape or no, and some expert texturing makes it well worth the Lindens. I felt so glamourous in this look, yet still very much ME.

Under The Mistletoe...

This new hair from "Calla", The Mistletoe in the Two Tone Pack is Brilliant! Love at first sight and I want to wear it all the time. This colour most matches my RL hair, as I have had a ever widening gray streak in the front since I was 12! I just think it is brilliant and softens the whole look of the outfit. This soft fur Hoodie, from "amerie's Naughty" is cuddly and warm with a fluffy Marabou trimmed collar. I love the teal colour of it, and was thrilled to find it looked so fabulous with these crackling boots from the amazing "Maitreya".

Disco Diva!

Disco Diva Time for “That 70s Event” @ PIN UPS! Yup, free skin time again. This skin was a freebie included with a dress I purchased at the opening of TULI in the New Caliah MUSE Plaza. I actually was surprised how much I likes it, and don't think it was too drastic a change in look for me. Hair from "Nylon Outfitters" is usually hit or miss with me, becuase some of the alpha texture stuff does weird things on my screen, but this Flip is so FABULOUS! "Ivalde" is my GO-TO for fab Retro looks from all era's, and this 'Toril' Pansuit is so Disco Fab! Playing dress up is too much fun!

That 70's Look

My Costume for the TV Dinner Event @ PIN UPS, Janet Wood of “Three’s Company”. This outfit is all 70's and all fun! I swear I had this shirt when I was 7 back in 1979, Tres Blah" is great for those Retro touches. My favrite hair from "Armidi", The Poynter, makes a reappearance for a sexy 70's look. Short shorts with a Butterfly applique from "Girlie" scream Roller Girl. And how could you NOT love these fab sneakers from REDGRAVE, who's sculptie shoes continue to amaze me with their perfection.

The Art Of Layering

Chilling Out in the Cold Winter Weather on Retrology. Recently I have been playing with my wardrobe, going outside of the box a little and pulling pieces from different designers together. This outfit is a perfect example, with the Thimbles "Mad Ave" jecket anchoring the whole look. Thimbles makes really fantastic separates, and I have this jacket in three colours and love it. it looks great on it's own, or layered over an oxford. This scarf (which I purchased in 3 colours) from Armidi is a sculptie dream! It fits perfectly (even over my ample bust) and looks so soft and cozy. I am really into hair from TRUTH lately, and this "Angel 2" look with a tintable hat is just so classic!

This Little Piggy

This Little Piggy Went to Market! Having a little fun with a cute undies set from Edelweiss, a shop I stumbled on not to long ago. These socks, from Sh*t Happens come in 2 lengths (Calf & Thigh) and I opted for the very reasonably prices "Sh*t Pack" with tons of great colour options. Slippers in SL are the best, I have at least 5 pair, and these Piggys look positively squishy cozy. Just a cute look I would so be caught in at home in RL too!

This Look is Part Geisha, Part Harajuku Girl, Part Gothic Lolita, And All Awesome! Playing with free skins again, this one from Chez Yaia, completely changes the look of my avatar. Not to mention these creepy Gothic eyes from Wilted Rose. Bare Rose is my GO-TO Place for Asian inspired looks, and they always give you tons of colour options in a box, and are ridiculously inexpensive (and TRANSFER!).

Boho Babydoll

I have had this adorable TaRt Babydoll dress in Inventory forever, and decided it was time to let it out into the light. Paired with great opaque tights, it makes it season perfect. The shoes from my newest discovery, Lassitude & Ennui, are perfection, and the forest green trim on them matched these tights perfectly. I have had this necklace by Petal Meg in inventory forever, but had never worn it for lack of the right neckline and look. It is really something, and modeled off Petal's RL Creations. A brilliant look for Fall or Winter, warm tones and just the right touches.

Fuchsia Fancy Free

For the "Sessions: Kiss Off!" Event @ PIN UPS, a Lipstick Colours Event, I grabbed the first labeled PINK Item in my wardrobe, and threw it on. It happened to be this Freebie Gown from Nicky Ree. I loved to bring a splash of colour to the Party! Generally most of my freebies go into a folder to sort/discard at a later date, but this one got premium placement in my NEW DRESSES folder. Nicky Ree is incredibly talented and her freebie's are like no one Else's. Her shading and texturing of satin and silk make it look "Reach Out And Touch" Slinky and Sexy. The gown speaks for itself, so I kept the rest of this look pretty understated. From Freebie to Fabulous!

City Chic

Time to shop means putting together a Classy Fashionista look! I threw this look together for a shopping trip with Draco, and it wowed me! This corset is Perfection, it even has the breast piece insert to make it look like the leather wraps the body as opposed to hugs it. Made by Bijou, it includes the blouse and tights, and even a shirt that I opted not to use here. MG Fashions "London Calling Collection" offers these very hot sequin shorts. This look can go from shopping Madison Avenue to a Cocktail Party in a flash. I do love these Stiletto Moody shoes that my lovely sister Anessa Stine got me for the holidays. The little touch of red in the shoe sparks this look up!
