Raise Your Glass!

Happy New Year's Eve, everyone! We had our New Year's Eve Eve party last night and it was a blast!! For my last blog of 2012, I decided to show last night's party outfit. [Well, after I found my shoes!]




Please be safe if you're going out tonight! I want to see everyone back in 2013!!

On The Naughty List

Have you been naughty this year? Is Santa not coming down your chimney? Ah, who cares? Zodiac is open!




It's the Capricorn round [see the horns?] and there are a ton of great goodies there for your shopping needs. And while you're at Zodiac, walk on over to Alice Project and get some hair! I got this one today for free! But if you've missed any of her previous gifts, they're on the wall for $50L.

Happy shopping!

It's the hap-happiest season of all!

Oh, look at this place! It's beautifully decorated, isn't it?




I just love when I stumble upon sims where I can take pictures. It's so helpful that people decorate so that... What? It's not a sim? OH THAT'S RIGHT. It's a collaboration piece from Pilot and Exposeur!




This wonderful winter Snow Globe makes my heart happy! I collect snow globes in SL, and actually being in one is awesome! Pilot does wonderful mesh work, and Exposeur makes some of the best poses on the grid, so now could this NOT be full of fantastic?? This globe comes in at 44 Land Impact, and has 7 couples poses, 3 group poses, 5 female poses and 5 male poses. Also, there's a little mini version [3 LI] of the globe for decoration! I already have it out on one of our shelves!

I think more people need to do collaboration projects. When two awesome creators combine forces, it's pretty much always amazing!

Living Glam At The Christmas Expo

Have you been to the RFL Christmas Expo yet? No? Well, you better hurry! It ends tomorrow!




I stumbled upon new-to-me store LIV-Glam while at the Expo yesterday, and I couldn't resist the Amy trench coat! It's a real steal at only $99L and comes with a HUD so you can change your coat into one of thirteen colors. There is also a special colored trench that is just for RFL that you can buy separately. I think it's very cute, although I wish the inside was not transparent. In certain poses, you can really tell the transparency. [Look at my left wrist to see what I mean.] But for such a cute and affordable coat, trust me, I'll let it slide!

The RFL Christmas Expo ends tomorrow, December 19th, so scoot on over and check it out!

I Get Too Hungry For Dinner At Eight

My dear forever sister, Rylan Carling, decided to hang up her hat as far as SL fashion blogging goes today. I'm sad, because Rylan has definitely been one of my fashion inspirations for many years now, but I also know that she has so many amazing things that are going to be happening in her offline life. So as much as I want to be selfish and tell her to keep doing it, I am happy for her for so many other reasons. While I was doing my photo tonight, I thought about her. The lighting in the picture reminded me of one she did for my husband and me last year, so Ry, this post is dedicated to you! ILY!!!




Alice Project has been doing the Advent gift giving over on Mint Tulip this month and it's been great! Plus, if you miss any of the gifts, Alice has helpfully put them on the wall for the low low price of $50L each. I combined the Bonnie bangs from today's gift with the Clarissa hair from a previous gift. Since the bangs are not rigged, it was no problem moving them around to fit the hair. I have kind of a fivehead, so I almost always need bangs!

Coldlogic put out the cutest party dresses last week! I'm wearing Merry in Emerald since it IS the Pantone color of 2013! I just love this dress. It's a simple, classy party dress and, as you all KNOW I love, you can dress it up and down in many ways.

Collabor88 is still going strong, and you'll want to stop by to get Maxi Gossamer's Patience heart watch necklace, Marukin's Dolce & Frais poses, and the Snowy City Loft by Barnesworth Anubis.

Happy Shopping!

Christmas Cutie

If you haven't heard, an awesome fundraiser is going to be held for Second Lifer Sway Dench. You all might know Sway from the cuteness she creates - like cookie bears! You can read up on why the event is being held over here on the Together For Sway blog. Updated: Here is the SLurl for the event! Over 50 of SL's best designers are taking part in this awesome event, including Funky Junk!




The Noelle house is just about as cute and Christmassy as they come! It's a small home with a large living area, a smaller downstairs room, and a spacious upstairs loft area. There is also a great back sun room!





Together For Sway starts on December 15th and I'll update this post with the SLurl when the event starts. Be sure to shop, get some awesome stuff, and help out one of our own! See you there!

So Really I Better Scurry

Hello readers! Did you miss me? I know, probably were too busy shopping to notice I was gone, right? I don't blame you a bit! Sooo much goodness has come out in the past week!




Collabor88 is unbelievable this month! I'm so happy with the Chaud dresses from Ingenue, I hardly know what to do. I've said it time and time again, but I adore simple pieces that you can dress up or down in so many ways, and this fits the bill! I dressed this one up with the Baboushka fur collar and fur hat from Maxi Gossamer at C88. I love all the fluff! And Fashionably Dead has some awesome Knee High mesh socks [the tops are mesh, not the actual sock part] that I couldn't resist wearing. My thighs might get cold, but who cares when I look this cute, am I right?

Also at C88, Trompe Loeil has the cutest little mesh winter cottage called Frostbite! Because it sits on its own snowpile and has trees, you really could just put it anywhere! The inside is basically just one room and has a fireplace. Cozy!

You have more shopping to do, and so do I!

Buffalo Gals, Won't You Come Out Tonight?

I'm watching "It's A Wonderful Life" right now and the song "Buffalo Gals" will be in my head for days! But I had to show you guys some newness from this month's FaMESHed!




Pink Outfitters brings us the Tori Bodycon dresses this month. It's a simple dress, which you all know I adore, with a nice little belt. You could, of course, wear it without the belt, or if you have another one that fits over the dress, that would work, too! The thing I love about classic dresses is that you can dress them up or down in so many ways!

And oh my GOD, look at the Fufu Bag from Maxi Gossamer! I seriously squealed when I saw these purses because I have a total love of sparkly, pretty, party purses! I'm carrying the silver shimmer one, but the combo pack comes with black feather as well. Also, you have the option to carry it in your hand or on your shoulder.

As I was walking down the street, down the street, down the street...

Whatever Gets You Through Today

The With Love hunt starts today at 4pm SLT! And here's another little taste of Coldlogic's new releases this week, just in case you needed another reason to go!




Pink Fuel is offering us this beautiful Alyx skin for the With Love hunt! I am in love with this skin and the pretty pink makeup on it!

I'm also in love with the new Soto sweater from Coldlogic. It just looks so warm and cozy, and the tied belt gives it just a little extra bit of beautiful.

I don't know about you guys, but I'm ready to get more stuff!

You Stare Politely Right On Through

More goodies from the upcoming With Love Hunt, and a new release from Coldlogic!




Coldlogic released a few new items yesterday, including the simply lovely Page skirt that I'm wearing. It's a very simple skirt, perfect for pairing up with all kinds of tops and jackets.

DCNY has a wonderful Ruffle Top for the With Love hunt. The ruffles on the chest and arms are mesh, but the rest of the top is texture, so you won't have any problems at all fitting into this!

And look how pretty the White Wood Entertainment Center I'm standing in front of is! This is by Alouette and will be available in the With Love hunt. It's mesh, and only 8 land impact!! Remember back in the day when something like this would almost leave you no room for a house? :)

Remember, the Coldlogic items are out already, and the With Love hunt starts tomorrow!

Good News In A Text!

Oh my goodness! What's this text? It says that the With Love Hunt starts on November 30th! That's great news!!




This is the third year of the hunt, presented by CHIC Management, and let me tell you guys - it's ALWAYS great. I am not very much into hunts, especially hunts where you have to pay for the item, but these items are WELL worth the 10L price tag! Other bloggers and I will be showing you some items here during the hunt, and of course the lovely folks over at Seraphim will have a complete round-up so you will be able to pick and choose which stores you wish to go to. It's a heck of a deal because there are thousands of $Lindens worth of items, but yet even if you get every single one, you'll still pay less than $800L in total!

See you on the hunt!

My friend Caelan Hancroft opened her new jewelry store, Cae, this weekend! Look how pretty her Entangled set is! Choker, ring, earrings, cuff - all beautiful! I can't wait to see what else Cae is going to have in store for us in the future!

And you know a weekend isn't complete until Truth releases pretties for us! I'm wearing Adeline and I'm sooo into braids lately, so I jumped for joy when I saw this hair style!

Happy shopping, y'all!

I Hope To Be There By The Morning

Quiet day for me today. I'm really just waiting for the morning.




Couple of events to tell you about: The Unhinged event kicked off today and there are a lot of great designers involved. This event is a charity fundraiser for Second Lifer Eku Zhong. I don't know Eku myself, but when so many people are willing to help you out, you've got to be a pretty special person. You can read all about the event on this page.

FAIR starts on November 17th, and as usual, it's going to be fantastic! Lots of great items and I'll definitely been showing you guys more from the event after it opens.

Happy shopping!

Even If The Skies Get Rough

It was a gray gray day here today, so having a gray background for today's picture just seemed very fitting. But even in all the gray, once in a while, the sun broke through. I like when that happens. Just kind of reminds you that better times are ahead.




Auxiliary has these awesome Belted Bell Bottoms for Collabor88 this month. They are lowwwww rise. Seriously - don't even think about wearing them if you aren't waxed clean. But I love them a lot, even though a little butt crack does show in the back. I'm wearing them in Vintage because I really like the side panel.

Happy shopping!

Just Look Over Here

I've never been a morning person. Anything I do in the morning usually has to be double checked. That obviously includes photos. But that's okay - just look at me. Don't look behind the fountain!




Truth released some new hair yesterday, and I got really excited about the Cyanne hair! I just love hair accessories - scarves, barrettes, etc. This is a long style with the hair down the back. Love!

Have you seen the Eternal eyes at IKON? So very very pretty! I'm wearing the Marine color and truly, you need to see them in person. Pictures do not do these eyes justice!

Barnesworth Anubis put out this amazing Marrakesh Oasis skybox for Collabor88 this month and just being in it makes me think of hot weather, which of course I love! I'm sure you'll be seeing more of this lovely skybox in future posts because it makes an amazing background for pictures.

Have a great weekend!

All I Have To Do Is Dream

I decided to distract myself from all the election craziness to put together a quick look. FaMESHed is awesome this month, Truth released some amazing hair a few days ago, and you need to shop. What more do you need to know today? :)

Have you made it out to FaMESHed for November yet? If you have, then you must have fallen in love with the new Woolsworth dress from Cracked Mirror. I mean, look at it! How could you not??




I am a TOTAL argyle fan, so the lovely little sweater on top of the long shirt dress is just total love for me. I had originally put jeans on under this dress, which looked great, but then I decided to go ahead and pair it up with the Basic Tights from G Field.

Remember that FaMESHed has a new location and build, so be sure to update your landmarks!

Happy November!

Happy November, dear readers! I hope you all had a safe and fun filled Halloween. I don't eat a lot of candy any more, so getting new Coldlogic dresses was a better treat for me!




The new Palmer sweater dress is just wonderful! I think I like that I could easily pair this with jeans or put a turtleneck underneath. You all know how I do love options with my clothes!

Truth released some great hair a few days ago, and I'm totally in love with the Josie hair. This reminds me of how my hair normally is here at home - scooped back into a messy bun, usually some some random braids here and there. If you wear any of the fades pack colors, there is the option to have a colored braid or a plain braid. I'm just wearing the plain one in this photo.

Did you hear the news? Auxiliary finally opened!! If you're in the group, you can pick up a box of gifts that includes this awesome Oversized Leather Tote. I simply adore huge purses because I carry a ton of stuff with me always, so you know I love this!

Happy shopping!

Would you like a cookie?

Events events events!! I LOVE THEM. :-p I don't love Halloween that much, to be honest, but I do appreciate some Halloween themed items and events that are in Second Life.




The Halloween Gacha event is open! It's a small event but there are some really cute things to be found there! Like the Halloween Cookies poses and props from Status! I'm carrying the rare cookie box.

G Field has this super cute Vivian Halloween dress out in their store and...AND...it's free!! I love free and I love this dress.

The Costume Ball is another Halloween themed event that has some really nice things, like the Christy hair from Wasabi Pills! It's an adorable ponytail with a bow. The bow comes with a HUD so you can change the color.

Have fun doing your spooky shopping!

Always Another Show

As I was mentioning in a comment to another post here, I'm not much of a skin addict. I know, I know. I LIKE new skins, I love love love to go demo skins, but I'm picky and once I find a skin that is ME, I won't change for a while. But, I'm trying to branch out a little bit and find new skins, and you know I'd never lead you guys to an ugly skin that I wouldn't wear myself. So with that said, how cute is the Faith skin from PXL??




It's a little more mature than my normal younger looking face, but I think that's what I like about it! When I look at a skin, I look at it from head to toe and all the bits in between, and believe me when I say this one is just fab! This one that I'm wearing is the PXL VIP group gift, and if you're in the group [and really, you should be], you can receive 25% off of all Faith skin tones and makeups until October 27th!

Have you been to Zodiac yet? No? You need to go so you can get the Jenny strapless blouse from Pink Outfitters! It's ladylike and simple, but still sexy! I found that the top of the blouse was bigger than what I'm normally used to in a Medium size, so if you're more busty than I am, you should have no problems fitting into this!

Have fun shopping!

Picture Perfect Memories

The Scorpio round of Zodiac starts tomorrow!! I adore Zodiac, I think the designers always have so much fun with it and make so many things that I just HAVE to have!




Bilo has these really lovely Hiba dresses for Zodiac. I just can never have enough casual dresses. Sometimes all you want is something pretty and simple to put on so you can look presentable without having to fuss too much. But you can most definitely dress this up with higher heels and more jewelry. I kept it simple here because that's the mood I was in.

I think the Hiba dress also goes really well with the Coffee Bean jewelry Izzie's has for FAIR! I'm not a coffee addict [anymore] but I think coffee bean jewelry is really unique and fun!

As always, have fun shopping!

Whoever thinks of going to bed before twelve o'clock is a scoundrel.

I'm a night owl. I always have been, and I think always will be. The funny part is that I'm kind of night blind and I don't go out at night a lot. I save my early evening wanderings for SL.




Stellar has come out with some great new items! The Corduroy mini skirts are just fantastic! I have been waiting for new mesh mini skirts and these fit the bill! There are matching Turtlenecks as well! The turtlenecks are a mix of texture and mesh pieces, so you don't need to worry about sizes. If you're in the Stellar VIP group, there is a free Halloween corduroy skirt waiting for you at the store!

Truth released new hair this weekend, and how amazing is the Dawson ponytail?? I'm still all kinds of excited about his new color fades, so I'm wearing this in Barbie, a mix of blonde and pink. Cute!

FAIR just opened this weekend, and the Joy skin from Lara Hurley is a total win! I've never actually worn one of her skins before [that I can remember], so this was a real joy to try on. I'm a fan now!

As much as I love the night, the morning has me working hard, so I'm off to bed.

Ship To Shore

I have a huge headache today, but I just couldn't resist showing you all one of the new coats from Coldlogic!




The Shreve coat is just perfection. A long time ago, I had a coat similar to this but of course it was made all out of prims and never looked QUITE right. Mesh was just absolutely made for things like coats and I'm definitely very much in love with this one today!

Several more coats were released today at Coldlogic, along with pants and skirts, so you definitely need to hop on over there and check it out.

Loving a music man ain't always what it's supposed to be.

Last night I found myself alone because my dear husband was off being a music man in the non-SL world. [He's a DJ, he's not trying to be a rock star.] So I figured I'd put on something sexy while I waited for him to come home.




Cracked Mirror is in Cinema and has the cutest things for it! The Starlet Corset and matching Ruffle Knickers appeal to everything girly in me! They're mesh and I'm getting an increasing love for mesh lingerie!

Also at Cinema, MudHoney has the Priya bed! Lots of animations in this one! I'm not sure if I put the curtains on the right way, but that's what happens when I'm left alone.

Truth just released new hair and I am loving the Jemima hair, AND his new color fades pack! I'm so all about different colored hair lately!

And did you hear? SLink released new mesh hands for the women! I absolutely had to fatpack these babies because ... well, look! They come in different poses and you can add your rings to them. The wrists are standard sizes, but the hands resize to YOUR hand size. So if you have tiny baby hands or huge massive hands, the hands are pretty much just your size.

Okay, more shopping to be done!

No Need For Explanations

There's no need to go into that room. No...no need at all.




Okay, I'm actually the BIGGEST scaredy cat ever and I hate horror movies. But Pink Outfitters is in the Horror section of Cinema, and I couldn't resist doing a little bit of a different picture! The Favorite Striped Tee and Cropped Boyfriend Jeans are awesome! And yes, there are absolutely "clean" versions of these items.

Also at Cinema, in the Romance section, Wasabi Pills has this great new Nikki hair! I am a great fan of Wasabi Pills, and I swear their hair just gets better with every release!

Be sure you take off most of your scripted items when you go to Cinema or you won't be allowed in! I went in with just an AO and it was totally fine. You don't need to be all dressed up to go. No one cares what you look like, they just want to shop! :)

It Was Like A Movie

Cinema is coming on October 13th! Have you heard about this? It's a fabulous new event brought to you by The Hottie Cooterati Experience and is centered around the movies! There are so many fantastic creators taking part, and I know you all will simply love it. Better start saving those $Lindens if you can, because there's going to be a lot to shop for!




Zaara is in Cinema and brings us this just simply lovely Runa dress. It's mesh, of course, and knotted in the front. If you're like me and adore classic styles, this is the dress for you!

If you really can't wait until 13th to spend your money, head over to Collabor88 and pick up the Garden Party set from Cheeky Pea and Pilot! It's SO cool and comes with the table, canopy bench, tree, and bird cages you see behind me, plus a blanket for the ground that is not shown. I truly love this set!

Have a great shopping day!

Collabor88 is open! If you like fun, colorful, kitschy things - this is definitely the month for you!




Trompe Loeil did this awesome Dreamy Genie bottle and oh my God, is it cool! You can fit a bunch of your friends in it, and it comes in different colors and in both adult and PG versions.

My lovely lilac Cindy shoes are from Ingenue and I can't call them anything other than adorable! I love a great wedge, and with the sweet little bows on the tops, they'll be making a lot of appearances on my feet!

D!va brings us the Norma hair, a messy curly short style that makes me want to just put my fingers in my hair and play with the curls all day. The hair comes with 2 different bangs.

In non-C88 news, last night I had a nice little conversation with PXL skins designer Hart Larsson. What a sweet guy! I'll admit that I'm not really very familiar with his skins [I tend to find a skin I like and stick with it for ages] but he introduced me to his Kate skin. I just love it! It has a very cute face and lots of makeup options. Total love!

Just Take My Hand

Just a few more hours until the October round of Collabor88 starts! C'mon, take my hand. I'll drag you there!




Ur.Favorite.One has just the cutest things for C88 this round! The Flamingos Day cardigans and Flamingos panskirts are just fab! The cardigans have that vintage look that I just adore, and the skirts are very cute! I will say that I would like the alpha for the cardigans to be just a little longer on my arms because in certain poses my skin pokes out, but I'll mod an alpha at some point.

Yummy has a Plastic Charm Necklace for C88 that is just soooo much like the ones from the 80s!! Did you all have them? I collected charms like crazy back then. I'm just thrilled with this necklace!

If you haven't been out to see Cica Ghost's Black and White World, you need to go! I went out there last night and it was amazing! I plan on visiting often!

Wow. Okay, this post was brought to you by the letter C, the number 88, and exclamation points.

I'm talking loud, not saying much.

Happy Saturday, everyone! Ooh, there's so much new, let's hurry and get started!




Collabor88 starts tomorrow, and check out the Davenport mesh tops from The Sea Hole! The theme for this month's event is Pink Flamingos. "Pink Flamingos" - A colorcentric Theme summed up in the non mainstream cinematic expoits of John waters, Plastic kitschyness and General Deviance. It's going to be FUN!

Mr. Truth put out new hair last night, and I am totally in love with the new Mayim updo! Have you checked out Truth's new color fades pack? I'm very into the whole idea of dip dyed hair or colorful pieces [having made part of my RL hair pink recently!] so the new colors make me very happy!

And last but not least, the new Equestrian boots at Gos are just so...well, no words! I just can't stop looking at my feet! Long and lean boots with a lovely stiletto heel? I can't think of anything better for my feet this season! As most of you know, Gospel's dear kitty was recently in an accident and after receiving so much support, the very classy Mr. Voom has decided to raise money for the PDSA - The People's Dispensary for Sick Animals - by creating a special edition of each new release. You can read all about it on his blog. :)

Do you want to shop yet? C'mon, let's go!

I'll Be Your Teenage Dream

I have always loved a short plaid skirt. Yes, they can sometimes come off as too schoolgirlish, but plaid? Never goes out of style. Plus, this outfit got a big thumbs up from the husband, so yay for that!




Eclectic Wingtips did such a fabulous job for FaMESHed this month! The Grace turtlenecks and Allure skirts are just what I've been looking for in SL lately! I went a bit more "young" with my look, but you can easily pair the turtleneck with jeans, or the skirt with tights and boots. I want all the colors now!

You and I...we'll be young forever...

And I'll Owe You One

Yes yes, same hair, day two. Shut up, I told you I loved it. :) But what I equally love are the new Varsity sweaters and lounge sweats by Cracked Mirror for FaMESHed!




I swear, the moment I saw these at FaMESHed last night, I screamed a little because these are SO ME. Especially in the fall when all I want are comfy cozy clothes. Some of the sweaters have numbers and some do not and there's a bunch of different colors to choose from. Total love!

I think I'm going to curl up in my new sweats and play a game!

Oh, I think they do make passes.

I love wearing glasses. In my physical world, I wear contacts almost every day because they're easy, but in SL, I just adore wearing all kinds of glasses. And I think I actually squealed a little when I put on the new Softpaw glasses from Krystal today. They're just too cute!




The glasses are just so sweet and delicate with the tiny little color-change gems and scroll work! I love when people put such fine detailing into things, and these definitely don't disappoint. Even the ear pieces are detailed! Love love love.

FaMESHed started today, and look at how adorable the new Izumi pigtails from Wasabi Pills are! I'm totally in love with this hair, even if it does make me look a little young. The hair is only partially rigged mesh. The bangs are not rigged, so you can edit and move them around if you need to. I didn't need to, it fit perfectly out of the box!

Although you can't see my entire pose, it comes from Status, and Status is 2 years old today! Happy store birthday, Gidge!! :)

Okay, enough. It's time to shop!

Did Bach Ever Eat Pancakes At Midnight?

I'll be the first to admit I don't pull off "gothic" very well. I have friends who do and do it extremely well, but it's not really my style. But I knew immediately that I wanted to wear The Witching Hour by Indyra Originals for FAIR when I saw it. Then when I saw the L'Opera hat by Tres Beau for the You Go To My Head hat hunt - well, I knew I had today's outfit!




The dress is very short and slim fitting, and comes with the stockings. My favorite part of it is probably the brooch and collar. I like ruffles! And I think the hat is just awesome! I had never heard of this hunt, but after seeing pictures of the offerings, I think I might have to do it!

Hold It Against Me

Yay! The new round of Zodiac started on Saturday! I know this is only the 3rd cycle, but I really think this is the best one yet!




I don't blog a ton of lingerie in here because I'm shy [and because I rarely ever buy it], but the Balance lingerie from Solange for Zodiac is so pretty! I've been dancing around to make the little tassels wave ever since I put it on.

And how cute are the Morning Light Cupboard Beds from Trompe Loeil for FAIR?? They come in different colors and can be styled in sooo many ways, as I'm sure you've seen other bloggers do recently. Love!

I guess I should go put some pants on now.

Taking pictures is savoring life intensely, every hundredth of a second.

Fall really is the best time to head out and take photos, don't you think?




I've been trying to blog this DouceMon jacket from LeeZu for a while but SL being what it is, for some reason the main part of the jacket wouldn't rez in clearly. I ended up tossing it on the ground, which allowed the texture to rez, which then meant it cleared up on me. Oh SL, the tricks we have to learn sometimes! But it was worth it because this is just the perfect fall jacket! The sleeves are all pushed up, and there's a great patterned panel in the back that matches the lapels. Total love!

Someone mentioned the Vintage Camera by Tee*fy for The Arcade and I realized, hey, I actually got the RARE one! I just hadn't unpacked it! Did you spend a ton of money at The Arcade? I did. But - I'm STILLLLL looking for the white mesh sneakers from DECO. If anyone has a pair they're willing to sell, I'll pay twice the gacha sale amount. Or I'll trade stuff!

Have a wonderful Sunday!

Not Very Technical

So the husband has been hinting that he might like a television in our bedroom for when we want to be totally lazy. But um...I might have to let him hook this up. I'm not very technical.




Luckily I'm pretty in my new outfit from FAIR!

FAIR opens today at 4pm SLT!! Also, if you like my pose from aDORKable, you can pick it up tomorrow when the Libra cycle of Zodiac opens!

Happy Saturday!

Dirty or Clean?

I'll admit it, I have a very long nighttime beauty routine! What? You think this kind of face is just natural? No way! Because I spend so much time in the bathroom, I always like to make sure it's clean and neat. My husband, however... well, you know men.




Of course, I'll forgive him. After all, sometimes you just have to get dirty to get clean!

Intervales Theme

I made a joke the other day that I was going to have to start stripping or turning tricks to pay for all the things I want from all the amazing events. And I might still have to, because FAIR is coming!




On September 22nd CHIC Management will open the doors to its new monthly event. The event will focus on a theme of time, each designer being inspired by one of the 24 hours in a day. There will be resident brands (who will alternate each month) and one cycle guest spots which are available to apply for.

CHIC is re-introducing its Fair Pricing Policy (hence the name of the event!) which encourages designers not to reduce the prices of their products in the event, and to ask for a price that they think is fair considering how much work they put into the item.

See you at the FAIR!
