Look of the Day

I've been focusing on mid-waisted pants recently -- but decided to mix things up and post a favorite in the lower-rise category. I am seriously in love with these Drifter pants from Pushbutton Industries. When the purple ones were released for the clothing fair, I couldn't wait to snap them up! The interesting detail is just fabulously done!

Look of the Day

My first (and definitely not my last) outfit from Draconic Kiss. I picked this up at the clothing fair, in my favorite color! Because I did truly drain my bank account at the clothing fair, I had to accessorize from my closet -- and was reminded that I had these delightful ruffle boots from Shiny Things -- just the thing! The pink polka-dot leggings are probably a bit anachronistic, but were irresistible :)

New at Magpie!

Hi everybody! To celebrate my first full month doing business as Magpie, I'm offering 2-packs of fresh spring tshirts for L$25! The shirts come on both the shirt layer, and the undershirt layer.

Fabulous Ribbon Jeans!

I like to design tshirts, so am always on the lookout for interesting jeans and shorts. As soon as I saw these fun jeans, I had to have them! I had to have them immediately, and could not wait. They are by Moonshine Clothing, and at that moment, they could only be found at the Clothing Fair. So, I stripped down to my system self and headed on over. Much to my delight, I got into the fair immediately, and didn't experience too much lag. This was my first clothing fair, and I was like a kid in a candy shop. I think I drained my account in 10 minutes! I did try to mostly focus on things that were in the special RFL vendors (and freebies of course!), so I don't regret a moment of it. I haven't even opened up all my goodies yet -- but I'm sure you'll be seeing some of them in future posts :)

By the way -- I did not design this tshirt, but it is a spectacular one! I love the crisp graphics!

Building at Magpie

I've been having a great time today building on my parcel at Magpie. It is ever-so-slowly starting to look like something similar to my vision. More importantly -- I'm learning something new everytime I try to do something! What an adventure :)

My Other Life

Even in Second Life I have more than one life! (well -- that is one of the points of SL, right?) Since I joined SL four months ago, I have had a soft spot in my heart for the communities of Caledon. I've been on their citizenship roles for some time, and am shortly to become a founding landowner of the new Caledon sim, Glengarry. To get ready for actually taking up residence on my tiny plot of land, I've been trying to acquire a few outfits that I enjoy, and will let me fit in comfortably into the Victorian Steampunk society. (The fashion parameters of Victorian Steampunk are still a bit vague to me -- but I'm going to keep working on that!) I was delighted to find this outfit at Layniewear's fire sale. Laynie has made the pieces of this outfit on a gazillion layers -- a little overwhelming at first, but guaranteed to be very useful! As soon as I got it on, I ran back to buy more colors.

And what could set off a steampunk look more than watchfaces?!? These pieces by Magika are absolutely wonderful! The hands on the watches move constantly, and just scream "time traveler".

Glam: All Dressed Up

Ahh... these boots. I'm in love with these boots. You may start to be realizing by now that I'm a fairly casual girl, and don't glam it up too often. But -- the moment I saw these boots, I had to have them (and a silver pair as well!). Of course, that meant I had to have something shiny to wear with them. I'm hugely fond of Punch Drunk's rock star outfit, which I've had for some time, so I went back to check out some of her other stuff. This bronze dress jumped right into my inventory! A few teal accents, and I'm ready to go.... somewhere!
