Milla: Tack så mycket Verkligen glad att /du/ gillar det med.

Kallisto: Thank you – I think we all need a touch of classic elegance once in a while (:

Marni: Haha, you know it’s registered, so… maybe once in a while? We’ll see.

Portia: Done and done! I’m thinking about the next one now. I think it will probably be more springish or summery.

You are the darkness where new lights begin and increase.

(The reason I’m able to overlook the small hat is because of the small dress that accompanies XD)

Valena: I had a feeling you would like this one

Dona: Thank you!

Bibs: Long time no see Thanks a lot, it’s really nice hearing from you and I’m glad that you’re reading and enjoying my posts! Hope to catch you in world sometime soon!

Moisie: Do you really need more clothes, as long as you have a seashell bra and octopus bottom? Maybe I should blog that. HM.

Portia: Haha, ome days I wouldn’t mind having a personal shopper either, some days I wouldn’t mind shopping for other people. It’s a fun part of the process though, and I’m sure /most/ women agree most of the time.

Kristianne: Thank you – the different silhouettes one can create with different pieces is one of the things that interest me most about clothes, I lovev playing with it even though this one ended up being a classic.

Galilla: Last name isn’t required, I think that was mostly mentioned since your comment was partly negative, but it’s really up to you to choose your signature. It is a very serious issue and recognizing that on a fashion site is hardly a crime – I’d say it’s relevant. I don’t think it was the fact that you did bring it up that caused something of a stir, but more your choice of words/the way it was put.

Thank you, I’m glad we did talk it though and that you commented again, I hope you’ll continue to do so and that without being afraid of expressing your opinion. I’m sure there were others who shared yours on this matter in particular too. So, let’s put that incident behind us.

<3, M

Me again. Galilla. My last name is Sinatra by the way. And up until about 3 weeks ago (which I just saw yesterday), I was the ONLY Galilla on the grid. A fact I was very much aware of. So I was not attempting to hide my identity. Besides, it didn’t say last name was required, and since it was my first blog comment post, I just simply didn’t put it.

Mariya and I spoke in world. She was very gracious and even admitted to me, as she has to you, that her skin choice was not the best for the outfit. It did make her appear extremely thin due to the shading. I IM’d her to apologize for making her feel uncomfortable, especially since it’s not her blog.

But let me say this, and I hope this will not cause more controversy and more posts. That is not my intent. My intent here is just to explain why I made the comment.

What I attempted to do was start a serious conversation on the issue of weight in the fashion world. I work at a school, I see some of the young girls practically starving themselves to be thin to look like those models they want to emulate. And sadly, we have lost one to anorexia. It is no joke. It is a very serious issue, something I’m sure most of you will agree on. My crime, it seems,is having actually posted that comment on a fashion site. My mistake. It should have been made on a blog where people openly discuss serious issues.

And so, I’m sorry if I offended anyone. Especially Mariya. You are doing a fine job Mariya, the outfits you are creating are lovely and I’m glad you chose to continue. I enjoy visiting the blog everyday since I discovred it about a month ago. All the best.

Galilla Sinatra

PS: Just so you know – I do have many friends, in RL and SL; I don’t have any issues concerning my weight (I am slender and healthy). And please, let this be the end for Mariya’s sake. I just felt I needed to explain.

I love the silhouette of the cape with the profoundly understated sexiness of the skirt, stockings and heels. Traffic stoppah!

But we know it’s a cruel world where everyone buys themselves clothes or else everyone will be walking with just their expensive branded skin and nothing else

*winks*
