Aurorochka?

LeLutka has released a whole new winter apparel line. This year's theme? Military chic. Right up my alley! And did I mention that their fur hat and fur shrug combo have a very strong Russian feel to them? Again! Right up my alley!

Hell, the fur shrug even has my name. "Irinushka." How cute is that?

SHOES:

I've always been ambivalent about "sculpted" clothes as apparently my shape doesn't quite match that of your average skinny model with tiny tits, no ass, and legs up to her chin. But this shrug seems to fit pretty well even on my shape! Of course, it's just arms... Hard to mess those up.

LMs: Miamai, Mandala, NALA.

Gawk or die!

I've discovered a new store while idly browsing the SL Marketplace website: Gawk! Alright, they're a bit pricy... but the quality of their clothing is damn amazing. I bought at least five outfits in one sitting, and none of them are a disappointment.

HAIR:
Truth

CLOTHES:
Sweater by Gawk!
Dress by Gawk!
Pants by Kitties Lair.

ACCESSORIES:
Glasses by NALA.
Bubblegum by Pink Fuel.
Necklace by Mandala.
Bag by Zooby.

SHOES:
Stiletto Moody.

I'm absolutely in love with this store, now. But let's not get carried away... One outfit a week, and I'm drawing the limit there! Right? :x

Fall Colour

So today we have some real neat stuff! I picked up this sweater a couple months ago, and now I get to wear it without people asking me if I'm hot!

HAIR:
Boon

CLOTHES:
Sweater by DP Yumyum.
Pants by Khush.

ACCESSORIES:
Glasses by NALA.
Hairband by DP Yumyum
Necklace by ICoN.
Bag by Zooby.

SHOES:
Stiletto Moody.

The hairband is actually a group gift. Totally free! Great find, don't you think? I've also been looking for hair that goes with hair bases for what seems like forever now -- and found these great styles and a few more at Boon! And wouldn't you know it, they are for sale until November 20th at 50% off! The Boon hair bases are also only $50 for a set of colours, and they come in three different versions: High gathered, medium, and low. Perfect for all the styles they have available to go with hair bases!

ETD is back?!

I stumbled on a Marketplace link somewhere to a little hair shop ran by Elikapeka Tiramisu. Maybe you remember her from a little hair shop called ETD? I must've had a heart attack. I have been watching that tiny XSL-only shop since then with bated breath. ETD was the reason I got addicted to hair in the first place! And now she's back, making brand new hair!

So of course I got as many as I could! And the "naturals" packs are back. The rest of the hair designers out there should take a pointer from Elikapeka. She lops two blondes, two reds, two brunettes, and a white all together into a single package! No more having to buy a bunch of different hair packs if you like to switch colours on the fly.

No in-world store yet, but I'm sure that'll change once more people know about their return! For now, you can find the hairs at Elikatika Marketplace Store!

I love Indyra!

Yesterday Indyra Originals finally put out a new release! And I have been waiting for this kind of clothing since I first saw their McQueen tribute.

HAIR:

CLOTHES:
Coat by Indyra Originals.

ACCESSORIES:

Necklace by Alienbear.

SHOES:

I paired this beautiful Marquis dress with their rabbit fur jacket in black and some stockings from Blacklace... which oddly enough matched colour-wise perfectly with what Penelope was wearing today! Of course wearing so much fur and jewelry AND my Penelope makes it impossible to teleport... but when I do get there, I look good doin' it.

And of course I couldn't pass up this photo-op of mommy and babygirl! Penelope is wearing the new Sweet Penelope "Juicy Pink Punk" outfit if you guys are curious!

LMs: Alienbear, Gisaci, Indyra Originals, Love Soul, NALA, Stiletto Moody, Zooby.

Fur & Snow

The furry coats continue! Indyra is re-marketing their rabbit fur coats for this season. While many of us believe it's wrong to wear fur, I think it's pretty safe to say that no RL bunnyrabbits were killed to make this coat in SL; however, we can't vouch for the safety of certain Ozimals when it comes to this stylish outerwear.

And don't forget that Stiletto Moody is having their 70% OFF EVERYTHING sale! This is too good to pass up. I have been popping in and out of there for the last two days, for a grand total of six new pairs of shoes and one whole colourpack of the Greta! I believe this foray into the sin that is called Stiletto Moody has finally pushed my shoe total over 50 Moody pairs! Does anyone in SL offer professional help for this?

DeLa Fun!

I'm back and trying to update this blog again! I've amassed such a large amount of clothes again, and would love to start showing them off once more. :P

HAIR:
Maitreya

CLOTHES:
Coat by DeLa.
Dress by DeLa.

ACCESSORIES:
Legwarmers by Kitties Lair.
Nails by Love Soul.
Glasses by MIEL.
Necklace by Donna Flora.

SHOES:
Stiletto Moody.

It's cold enough outside in most places to get away with wearing the big bulky coats in SL too! So I've finally pulled all of my stuff out to strut around in.

Random Rant Post!

So this has been circulating through pretty much every dang group out there, and I'm so sick of this kind of crap... So let's rant for a bit!

Warning : If you will get an object called RADAR FREE V44. Clear it, don't take or wear it. It will activate a moneytransfer from your accound to the Objects sender, duplicates and send itselves to other people. Give these messages to other groups and friends. This is verified.

Really, guys? First, I'd like to say this is total bullshit. Why?

Red & White

Trying out the red lipstick shade of the new skin! And what better way than to pair it with my red Gisaci trench?

HAIR:
Maitreya

CLOTHES:
Trench by Gisaci.
Dress by Gisaci.

ACCESSORIES:
Bag by Zooby.
Nails by Love Soul.
Glasses by NALA.
Necklace by Alienbear.

SHOES:
Stiletto Moody.

I'm still not completely sold on the skin. Modified my shape just a little bit to fit the face a teeny bit better. And it's definitely cute... Will have to wait a few days to see how I like it!


LMs: Alienbear, Gisaci, Love Soul, Maitreya, NALA, Stiletto Moody, Zooby.

Black Queen Style

Decided to get the tattoes and black clothes out of the inventory...

HAIR:
Truth.

CLOTHES:
Blouse by LeLutka.
Pants by LeeZu.
Gloves by X*Plosion.

ACCESSORIES:
Glasses by NALA.
Earrings by Alienbear.
Bracelets and rings by Mandala.
Bag by Zooby.
Tattoes by Nasty Tats.

SHOES:
Stiletto Moody.

Also got a cute new skin! Thinking it's about time to change after having my old one for almost two years! It's Korean style, but fits my shape rather well, if I do say so myself...

LMs: Alienbear, LeeZu, LeLutka, Mandala, NALA, Nasty Tats, Stiletto Moody, Truth, X*Plosion, Zooby.

Louis Vuitton

I love Louis Vuitton things about as much as I love Burberry things... In George W. Bush's voice, "Which is to say, I love them a lot." My LV stuff has been sitting in my inventory for a while now, so I thought today would be as good a day as any to bring it out!

HAIR:
Fri.day.

CLOTHES:
Shirt by Zenith.
Shrug by Sassy Kitty.
Pants by LeeZu.

ACCESSORIES:
Hat and purse by Arbizu
Glasses by NALA.
Earrings and necklace by ICoN.
Bracelets and nails by Mandala.
Fur by RedGrave.

SHOES:
Stiletto Moody.

Arbizu is this amazing little shop that does all the big labels: Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Burberry, Gucci, etc. They mostly specialize in purses and shoes, but for certain brands they also have hats, scarves, even a few very stylish freebies! Definitely worth a visit. This hat that I'm wearing is actually a man's hat... but with resize scripts, does anyone really know? ;)

LMs: Arbizu, Fri.day, ICoN, LeeZu, Mandala, NALA, RedGrave, Sassy Kitty, Stiletto Moody, Zenith.

Baby Blue

The colour scheme of Sweet Penelope store consists of mostly baby blues. So I thought it would be a great location for me to take a pic of today's outfit!

HAIR:
Maitreya

CLOTHES:
Coat by Gisaci.
Dress by Gisaci.

ACCESSORIES:
Purse by COCO & CO.
Nails by Love Soul.
Glasses by NALA.

SHOES:
Stiletto Moody.

I shied away from blues when I was a redhead. Something about blue and red just never looked right. But for blondes, it seems like a perfect fit! And so I paired this lovely baby blue Francia Woven Coat from Gisaci with the white Rainy Day Dress, also from Gisaci! Definitely a simple yet very stylish look.

But speaking of COCO & CO... The store is actually having a huge 50% off sale on both their Winter and Spring collections. If you like the Chanel look, you have to check out this little shop! They've got everything from shoes to purses to full outfits straight off the Chanel runway.

LMs: COCO & CO, Gisaci, Love Soul, NALA, Maitreya, Stiletto Moody.

Military Crop

I can't wait to start wearing cold weather clothes again. Jackets, jeans, furs... the list goes on! And it's finally getting cold enough outside to sort of justify wearing some of this stuff in SL too!

HAIR:
Truth.

CLOTHES:
Military crop jacket by Armidi.
Shirt by Cupcakes.
Jeans by Kitties Lair.

ACCESSORIES:
Backpack by Gritty Kitty.
Glasses by NALA.

SHOES:
Stiletto Moody.

Admittedly the shoes make my feel look rather cold in that dark, rainy corner of SL. Then again.. it is only SL, and I've seen girls run around in bikinis while visiting Santa in his North Pole house before. And that's how I'm going to justify wearing my new Barbaras in the rain and cold.

The Truth hair sale is still also going on until September! All hair is 50% off. That's ridiculously cheap, guys. And it's some of the best hair in SL, with hundreds of different styles to pick from. Go check it out!

LMs: Armidi, Cupcakes, Gritty Kitty, Kitties Lair, NALA, Stiletto Moody, Truth.

Home Decor

Welcome to my home! I thought I'd give you a little tour, all while showing off some of Second Life's very lovely furniture designers! I live in a little two-story skybox overlooking the Tokyo skyline, and it's more than enough for me. Let's start with the living room for now!

Zebra Prints

Finally managed to find a zebra print shirt! Now my Robins aren't as lonely anymore, getting almost no light compared to my other Stiletto Moody shoes.

HAIR:
Maitreya

CLOTHES:
Jacket by Fri.day.
Shirt by Cupcakes.
Shorts by Apple May.

ACCESSORIES:
Dog bag by Zooby.
Glasses by NALA.
Bracelet and ring by Mandala.
Earrings by Sn@tch.
Belt by Phoenix Rising.

SHOES:
Stiletto Moody.

And this lovely zebra-print shirt is actually from a store that right now is having a giant sale on their entire inventory! L$10 - L$100 for everything! If you're interested, go and TP yourself to Cupcakes and grab up everything you need!

Phoenix Rising is also having a closing sale! One of my favourite stores finally closing its doors. Booo! :( But, that means everything in the store is only L$100. And they mean everything. Dresses that were L$750 are now only L$100. Go buy!

LMs: Apple May, Cupcakes, Fri.day, Maitreya, Mandala, NALA, Phoenix Rising, Sn@tch, Stiletto Moody, Zooby.

Mandala Bracelets

I've never had much time to read fashion blogs. All stores and clothes I've found either by word of mouth or by pure chance. This was one such occurance.

ACCESSORIES:
Bracelets by Mandala.

While walking through a mall and trying to find a store that had moved, I stumbled onto a small booth of a store called Mandala. The displays alone took away my breath; we're not even talking about the product displayed on them.

Mandala is a Japanese store specializing in jewelry and shapes. While I'm in no need of a new shape, I'm always in need of new jewelry! And these guys are definitely on the cutting edge.

Not only are their items incredibly high quality and detail, but they also come in huge varieties! Bracelet on the left comes in two styles (I like the furry one), as well as a set of rings attached to a set of matching nails. No more picking whether to wear your rings or your nails!

And I paired the bracelet on the right with some black lace gloves that seemed to go quite well with my Blazer Combo outfit! If you love extravagant jewelry, definitely check this place out.

LMs: Mandala.

Blazer Combo

Today I went with a butchy look. Short hair, a rolled up blazer, and some sneakers. Sometimes it's nice to really look like you mean business.

HAIR:
Fri.day.

CLOTHING:
Blazer by Armidi.
Shirt by Gisaci.
Pants by N-CORE.

SHOES:
Urban Bomb Unit.

ACCESSORIES:
Bag by COCO&CO.
Nails and ring by Love Soul.
Sunglasses by MIEL.
Watch by GOS.

While I never wear anything but Stiletto Moody, I make an exception for these Vans knock-offs from UBU. For a very reasonable price, you get the high-tops that you can either roll down (pictured) or lace all the way up your calf. The shoes are menu driven to give you sooooo many fabric and colour combinations! Anything from the Burberry plad to checkers and zebra print! Definitely worth having a look.

The watch was another story. Obviously designed for a man -- why I bought it to go with this outfit in the first place -- resizing it is not the easiest thing to do. So I decided to just push it up my forearm and let it hang loose! I believe GOS offers resize services as well, but I didn't think it was that big of a problem!

Modern Hippie

My first outfit for the blog!

I got this great hair at Maitreya's giant sale, and couldn't figure out what to pair with a flowing hair that had a hippie-style hairband. This is what I ended up with!

CLOTHING:

Sweater by Armidi.

Dress by Gisaci.

SHOES:

Stiletto Moody

ACCESSORIES:
Necklace by ICoN.
Burberry bag by Zooby.
Nails by Love Soul.

HAIR:
Maitreya.

Rage looks very comfy in his new Burberry bag from Zooby! He is by far the best puppy-in-a-purse I've seen in SL. Definitely worth checking out if you're going for that ditzy Paris Hilton look. Chihuahua not your thing? There are also Beagles and Pugs! But why on earth would you want anything else?!

LMs: Armidi/Gisaci, ICoN, Love Soul, Maitreya, Stiletto Moody, Zooby.
