Random Doodling

Wednesday, March 10th, 2010

So I really had lots to do today, but as usual I started procrastinating and did the SL equivalent of random doodling by trying out different stuff from my Inventory.  Soon I was zipping around the grid picking up new stuff that would go with the old stuff… and the next thing I knew, I had a new look!

Sloppy Chic

Thursday, February 4th, 2010

I’ve got a disheveled, casual look going today.  Like I got up too late and just threw on layers of clothes I found lying on the floor; which all just happened to be in gray and green hues. ;)   And, because I won’t leave the house without accessories, I hung some heavy silver necklaces around my neck (with matching silver hoops), stuck my feet in killer stilettos, grabbed my bag and rushed out the door.

Sunday Stroll

Sunday, January 24th, 2010

I’m feeling really casual today, so I went with a simple day-time look.  I found this tailored jacket at Argrace ; the striped turtle neck sweater actually comes as an extra option with it (there’s also a white shirt option) and I loved it!  I paired it with pair of favourite jeans and then added large hoops and the sexy zipper boots to add just a tiny bit of edge.

Geek Cruise

Friday, January 22nd, 2010

A slightly geeky cruise look for today.  I had to search high and low for the denim shirt until a friend told me about this one here from Gabriel (which is a new-to-me store) and it was perfect. I layered the shirt with a white undershirt (because I love my layers) and then paired it with  a shorts-and-long-socks combo.  I kept my accessories in brown, with the all important geek shades in a lovely tortoise shell texture.

Casual Friday

Casual Friday

I’ve got a casual Friday look in Autumn colours today; in warm browns and burgundies.  I’ve got different shades of brown in the scarf, skirt and boots, and a good dollop of brilliant burgundy in the sweater.  To frame it all a little, I scattered some whites in there with the tights and the shirt — the fishnet tights also add some edge to an otherwise preppy feel. The bag is an ancient Armidi piece, with colours that fit just perfectly.

Biker Love

Biker Love

It was love at first sight when I saw this Union Jack biker jacket from Muism — love, love , love! I tried to aim for effortless sexiness, with high-waisted loose pants and only a bandeau bra underneath.

Stayin In

Sexy little boy shorts with a matching tank, wrapped up in a warm cardigan, makes for a sweet staying-in look.  Pass the popcorn and turn on the movie!

Boyfriend Jeans – Part II

Boyfriend Jeans - Part II

This look is lighter and cuter; basically just a take on the classic tank-and-jeans combo.  The tank in question is girly and frilly to kind of contrast the masculine cut of the jeans; same goes for the heels.  And to really drive home the girly, I went with this super cute hair and big jewellery.

Boyfriend Jeans – Part I

Boyfriend Jeans - Part I

A little while ago I ran around the grid pretty much every day in these boyfriend jeans from Maitreya.  I made two looks with them for my Flickr page and I wanted to post them here on the blog as well.

This first look is kind of moody and wrapped up for a rainy and cold day.  I’ve got lots of layers going with the jacket, the cardie and the plaid shirt, and on top of that I’ve got ear mufflers and a fluffy scarf.  The hat and glasses gave me that moody feel, hiding my face from the world.

BoHo Blue

Sunday, October 4th, 2009

Look of the Day

Here’s another look that I prepared earlier :)  A comfy BoHo look in blues and browns, inspired by the funky Fringe Tunic from Sugarcube. I paired it with these old favourite ripped jeans from The Abyss and knee-high brown slouchy boots.  The last detail was the bag that just went perfectly with the boots.
