London Legs

I've been in London for most of the summer, mainly attending garden parties (yawns!! on the immaculately manicured lawns), a few gallery openings, and a smidgen of work (even greater yawwwwwns!). However mainly just been hanging around, shopping and catching up with all the juicy goss!
There I was around the back of Covent Garden ( had to pop a review of some tedious insignificant off-westend parody play to the "Thesbians rag") having a small spritzer to quench my thirst, when guess who I see laden with bags and walking at 5000mph - Tesh, OMG!!! " what the hell are you doing here? you never call first".
Chat and banter ... yadi yadi yack yack yack ( joking xoxoox Tesh hahha).
A big thumbs up and congrat Tesh on ONE YEAR of Slexy!!!!! muah muah muah ( yes yes, we have been doing 3 muahs for ages over here, muah ( I do 4 now hehhe).

(click pic for full size)

Tesh insisted I blog my look, so here it is Tada! Just shorts and shirt I thought , but ok I took a photo and below are the details.
Must rush byeeeee everyone keep looking fabby and CONGRATS again Tesh!!

Panda in the Garden

This gorges dress by M2M that you can scoop for $1L + a silly panda cap (that's actually much like the one I own in RL, heh) made me feel like a li'l garden stroll today.
There's several $1L scoopies you can grab at M2M, like another pretty "Damask" paisley print dress. Look for them on the upper back wall in this cute shack store. *mwuahs Yumi Chiuh*

On a personal note, I was so touched by the li'l surprise bday soiree last nite for SLexy! *mwuahs to G + all our SLexy friends*

Awwws love + fashionista kisses to all!

Happy Birfday SLexy Fashionista!

It's hard to believe that it's been a year since my very 1st blog post. A huge *mwuahs* to all of the SLexy friends who have inspired this blog + shared a laff with us along the way.
My look today was inspired by these brand-new droolworthy lace-up platform booties that my girl Indyra Seigo dropped on me. This luscious cherry color is the yumz. *mwuahs Indyra Seigo*

I was in a girlie braids kinda mood, so I slipped into this free poofy pigtails hair by Heart Softens. A free bohemian babydoll top by C'est La Vie, some free ripped denim by M*Motion + free striped sox by Sey finished this non-matchy matchy, technicolor look.
And now a huuuge smooch to mah SLexy crew: G (without whom there'd be no SLexy), Dream, Dorothy, Rene, Ethan, Catherine, Marg + our lovely guest bloggers like Sileny + Jasmine who have shared in our many adventures along the way.
Like we do in NYC: it's cocktails + cupcakes all around. *raises glass* Here's a cheers to another year of more fabby styles + silly SL adventures. SLexy love + fashionista kisses to all!

Hitch Your Wagon To A Star . . .

. . . and you might just find this free ethereal "Rainy Drop" dress, which my lovely gf Catherine Fairport discovered at Towa + graciously encouraged me to show to you. *mwuahs Catherine Fairport*
Today is a day of reflection for me, so I thought I would share some brain noodles from 1 of my fave poets and truly great American thinktanks, the awes Ralph Waldo himself. Enjoy.

A chief event of life is the day in which we have encountered a mind that startled us.

The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile, nor the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone else believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friendship.

That which we persist in doing becomes easier for us to do; not that the nature of the thing itself is changed, but that our power to do is increased.

Hitch your wagon to a star
.

Introspective love + fashionista kisses to all!

Smoked Berry

Check out this luscious berry-colored cheongsam minidress that you can win for free at the Honey lucky boards (you can win it in black, too).
I was in a dark hair/darker eyeliner kinda mood, so I slipped on 1 of the Tres Blah dramatically smokey eye makeup skins from the Blur installation + this tousled, bed-mussed Dernier Cri hair from the Summer of Love fair. /me is deeply, madly, permanently in luhs with these windswept locks.
I can't ever really go too long without some o' the latest jewels at my beloved Donna Flora. Black diamond briollettes? Teeny tiny smokey purple rosebuds? ZOMG drool. *mwuahs Squinternet Larnia*
The ever-generous Squinternet has also set out these gorges diamond-studded cork wedges (with a touch of berry-red piping) that you can still grab for the whopping price of $1L.

Harajuku Girl

There's an adorable new "Sunkissed" skin fair at Harajukubox, where you can find limited edition skins + see giant pieces of citrus floating casually in the sea. -- I scooped this new makeup of Pink Fuel's "Ember" skin (featuring white eyeshadow+ pink eye stickers) that inspired this prettie take on a Harajuku Girl look.
A stolen moment in the spotlight is tres necessary in life.
This look mixes a few gifties: my top is free by Pr!tty + these jelly-like "toy bangles" are free by Candy Nail (grab the free July "ruby" nail gift too; my blue nails with little candies on them came courtesy of the $50L per play gatcha). This girlie wristlet is $1L by Puddles + I'm rockin' some exceptionally cute poses that are free from my gf Val Southard that are really worth a grabbie. *mwuahs Val Southard*

Now for some fervent Gwen Stefani air mic-ing in the shower. Tokyo streetwear fashion love + fashionista kisses to all!

"In a pedestrian paradise
Where the catwalk got its claws (meow)
A subculture, in a kaleidoscope of fashion
Prowl the streets of Harajuku (irasshaimase) . . .

Harajuku girls, you got the wicked style
I like the way that you are
I am your biggest fan, oh

Harajuku girls

I'm looking at you girls
You're so original girls
You got the look that makes you stand out
Harajuku girls, I'm looking at you girls
You mix and match it girls
You dress so fly and just parade around (arigato) . . .

Style detached from content
A fatal attraction to cuteness
Style is style
Fashion is fashion
Girl, you got style!"

Baby Doll

The brand-new "Antique Linen" baby doll dress by Tram put moi in the. girliest. mood ever. Which is just fine by me. *mwuahs Moca Loup*
Here's the same Tram dress in a pretty dusty rose color. This vintage hue + supersheer underskirt just barely peeking out make this baby doll dress something special.
There's not much more baby doll than ponytails, and these superpoofy ponys show why Truth offers some the finest streaks on the grid: teeny-tiny color stripes + oh-so-subtle shadowing create "layering" effects that are the yums. *mwuahs Truth Hawks*I'm also showing that gorges gem headband by Tram that is simply girlie girl, personified. -- Needless to say, this baby doll is gonna be wearin' tha hellz outta this thing. In all colors. Heh.

Always got time to be a baby doll. Girlie gurrrl

Retro Mood

The latest free black & white checkered capris gift by WAvE put me in a '50s retro mood today, so I added a free loose tie by Tee*fy, a free gauzy white top (+ $1L lace undershirt) + a free fabby quilt bag by YS&YS for this girlie look. -- 'Natch I had to add a wide, modern cinch belt (with triple gold buckles!) by Pacadi Jasha just to mess up the retro mood a bit.

Catch the Tram

It's not often that a piece of virtual fashion will make me do a double-take, but the petal-like folds of this thick, organic drapery by Tram did exactly that.
This entire store is tres adorable; the items are displayed in ankle-deep shallow water + there's some lovely jewelry pieces here too, like this dangly "lips" charm necklace.
For a splash of color, I added this candy apple red sequin bag (stuffed with candy) that you can snatch for $1L at JE*Republic.
