After All This Time?

So I'll admit it. I'm probably the least "geeky" or "nerdy" out of my group of friends. I don't know anything about Doctor Who aside from what I've learned by osmosis. I don't care about Star Wars or Star Trek. I don't even care about having the latest and greatest gadgets and until recently, I've been using a super super out of date iPhone that wouldn't even let me Instagram!

But, I do adore my geeky friends because they teach me things daily, and I absolutely love the things that are out at the Geeks n Nerds Fair!

Style - After All This Time?


FATEplay has some fantastic Doctor Who themed outfits for the fair, and even though I had to Google it to see who Billie was, I do know that I love her outfit! Jeans, a great tee, and an awesome jacket? What's not to love? I'm wearing it in the Original color, but you can also have it in Dark and Autumn, and of course all the pieces mix & match. You will definitely mix the jacket and jeans in with your wardrobe, I can tell you that!

!bang is also out at the Geeks n Nerds Fair with a Geek Speak gacha! These are wearable frames that say various geeky things. Of course, being the book lover that I am, and will always be, this one spoke right to my heart! ♥

The Geeks n Nerds Fair is going on now until December 8th. See ya there, nerds! :)

I'm Bound To Thank You For It

A man sees a young guy standing near a dog on the street. "Does your dog bite?" he asks the guy. "No, my dog doesn't bite," the young man replies. So the man reaches down to pet the dog and the dog bites his hand. "I thought you said your dog didn't bite!" the man exclaims. The young guy says, "My dog doesn't bite, sir, but that's not my dog."

Oh. Blog!

Bubblegum Alley is a new event for kids and families and it's very cute! I picked up some great home decor there from Pixel Fusion and new-to-me store Noble. I'm always thrilled to find new-to-me stores, and this event was full of them! This round of Bubblegum Alley runs until the 26th, so hop on over and check it out!

Fri.day released some fantastic boots for Shoetopia. The River.Boots are lace-ups with a great wedge. They come in several colors, and if you buy the Dotty color at the event, 100% of the money goes to Soles4Souls.

Have fun!

Maybe Tomorrow

Around this time of the year, my blogs seem to get a lot more sporadic. I keep telling myself "Maybe tomorrow." But well, eventually tomorrow is today and that's okay because I have some cute things that I have fallen in love with over the past few days!

Style - Maybe Tomorrow


Coldlogic released some new coats and OH... they are perfect!! I'm wearing the Golding coat with the optional shirt and skirt. How adorable is this coat?? I love the little zipper detail on the sleeves and it's just so ladylike and classy! But if you didn't wear the skirt and shirt part, you could easily pair it up with other things to make it a lot more edgy and rockstar.

But since I was going for a more ladylike look, check out the new Maryse heels from Ingenue! These are add-on for SLink feet and I am in shoe love with them. Classy, classy, classy.

Until tomorrow!

Maybe. :)

Just Take Your Time

I do a lot of inventory cleaning on an almost daily basis. Not a lot, obviously, since my inventory is still pretty massive. But I throw away things pretty much daily as I come across them. A lot of the time, this does mean I'm throwing out something that was made before August 2011 when mesh came out. However, sometimes I find just the right old [vintage?] item deep in my inventory and I feel like it pulls my look totally together.

Style - Just Take Your Time


I really like the new Band Jackets from Cracked Mirror for FaMESHed this month. Being a former band nerd myself, of course the first thing I think of when I think of band jackets is the letter jacket that I wore almost daily, but these are more like uniform jackets. Quite structured, very classic. These come with a short "shirt" inside, and I kind of wish they had a no shirt option to pair up with a longer belly covering shirt, but I do like this a lot.

The vintage item I found that I felt really went with my whole look was the Ginger boots from Shiny Things. They are from 2010 [very old in SL years!] and just sculpts, but I don't think they look dated at ALL. *sighs* I miss Shiny Things. The store is still up if you want to shop there, though.

By the way, have you been to The Garden yet? If you haven't, you need to go. I'm standing in the Bozeman Barn by Barnesworth Anubis and is it ever awesome! Big rooms and sliding doors and this fantastic two sided fireplace. It would be great for a winter sim!

Time to hop back into my inventory...or go do some more shopping!

But you won’t find my name in your book of Who’s Who.

I'm not the biggest fan of November, but I'm happy that it's the beginning of the month because that means it's time for a new round of FaMESHed!

Style - But you won’t find my name in your book of Who’s Who


Emery has this really cool Los Angeles Cardigan this round, and when I first saw the vendor ad, I thought, "Mmm...that might not be quite my style." But I was totally wrong because when I put it on, I fell in love with it. It comes in the full version with the cardigan and shirt like I'm wearing here, a version with the shirt tucked in, and then just the cardigan alone. Options!

Mutresse proves that shorts are not just for the summer with the Lana shorts for FaMESHed. These are fantastic! And of course there is the great HUD to change textures on the shorts. I'm just wearing them in the plain grey, but they are really very customizable!

Get your butt to FaMESHed, because there is soooo much to shop for!
