Watercolor

The free fur purse + free fur jacket gifts at Wave inspired this modern-day vintage styling, which to me recalled a muted watercolor painting with just a few splashes of color. A free "Something Old" necklace by Ganked added a chunky silver touch; a free tie-dyed tank by Fashionably Dead kept this look from being too pretty.
Fur purses are so great for those quasi-dramatic, casual toss of the head poses. The trick is tilting the hair just-so. See how this look says "Don't mind me, I just paid $3000 for this purse?" Totally.
Hump Day love + fashionista kisses to all!

Prep

Now that it's blistering hot, it's only 'natch to think wistfully of cooler climes. Here's me channeling that back-to-school vibe, a la any of those prep Gossip Girl biatches -- maybe with a touch o' downtown cool. O Blair, /me hearts you + your headband mafia 4evs.
I'm wearing a pair of free blinged out jeans by Ganked (OK, so maybe Blair wouldn't exactly do the whole rhinestones thing; Jenny perhaps?) + a girlishly sweet, cap-sleeved top for $1L at Willow.
This casual vintage styling is all about the accessories: a mini-fedora hat hair on sale for $50L by Kookie at The Dressing Room + a tres stunning triple-ropes pearl necklace + other chunky jewelry helped finish this look.
I had to show ya a close-up beauty shot of this utterly fabby oversized "Golden Wings" ring by Paper Couture, which my uber-stylish gf Dorothy Button was rockin' the other nite. As you can see, this oversized piece o' finger yumminess is To. Die. (You can also see why I had no choice but to pick up these ridic good snakeskin bangles at Atelier AM too).

It's only mid-summer, so rest assured there's still tons more 'kinis + other skimpies on the way. Still, a fashionista can daydream of fall weather style. Preppy love + fashionista kisses to all!

Oh Shiz, Somebody Let Loose Mah Stray Pig

One of my fave stores for grungy cute stuffs, Stray Pig (which has 3 lucky boards w/ free adorable animals btw) is having a mini-hunt right now where you can grab all kinds of cute things. I have literally zero time today *stabs RL* so I'm gonna point you in the direction of the web page which details all the info. Google Translate, man. It's easy and essential in life. *mwuahs* to creator YonYon Yip (and my girl Kaori Masala) for telling me about this awes hunt!
These items are suuupercute and some of them, like a really cute ladder and bed, have animations built-in.
There's even a grungy house.
The bed gives you a tossing animation which is cute.
This free pincushion seat just seemed to belong here. Love these Stray Pig curtains too, which flutter when you move them.
I will point out these absolutely fabby jewels by my girl Misti Merryman, who just can't seem to stop creating yummie gorges things. Just check out these rich colors + fluttery flower brooch; absolutely luhs that this necklace drapes wide, from shoulder to shoulder. *mwuahs Misti*
I also wanted to show you some of the recent stuff at PopArt, that crazy $1L everything furniture store. These hangers in particular are ahhhhdorables. The purplish plant (nice + tall) + tray of tea is oh-so-cute too.
That's it 'cuz I gotta ruuun! Love + fashionista kisses to all!

Drivin' Miss Flapper Girl

Hullo everyone. It's been a minute but I'm so so excited to be blogging again this weekend! *happy dance*I haven't visited the Wave shop in some time + was pleased to see all sorts of new goodies up on the freebie wall. Check out this free feathery pink flapper girl look, just waiting to be plucked from there. (Check out my post here on Free*Style for another "motorcyle girl" look from this amazingly generous store).
These brown leather Courtisane boots are a gift at the Enky's $1L everything store (lotsa cute finds there, including some nice Exile hair). This gorgeous $1L flapper girl hair by IrEn, resplendent with these lovely soft brown curls, is now old news on the feeds but still one of the loveliest grabs at the Accessory Fair hunt (tons more good stuff there; look for black shopping hunt bags that are all free or $1L).
Ya knows I luhs a bit of silliness with my SL, and the RC Cluster store has all kinds of new goodies in its lucky chair. This "Pretend Car" comes with a really cute AO where you "fake drive" while bouncing your head from side to side. ZOMG do I want one of these in RL.
If you're thinking that this bodysuit top is slightly see-thru, well, you would be correct. Hee.

Happy, happy happy weekend to all my fashionistas. Love + fashionista kisses to all!

Here Kitty Kitty

This stunning Asian-American skin by ISSIGONIS can be yours for a few more days on XStreet here for $1L.
These looks were built around the free rolled-waist white denim shorts that the lovely Emma Gilmour of Surf Couture has set out at her Le.Look! location. *mwuahs Emma* This warm golden brown bob hair is newly free by Uncle Web (love the height at the crown; such a smexeh touch) which just works really well with this fantastic skin tone. The white thermal $1L top + free scarf-tied shoulder bag are both finds from Tres Blah.
Check out these free angel's wings by Boom, featuring this unique trailing "back necklace" which falls down the contours of the back. Like this skin, there's something way cute but hellaz sexy about this unique piece.
The jewelry I'm wearing is the newest free jewelry gift from Ganked's subscribo. Just can't seem to get enuff of Misti Merryman's bold statement looks; plus these turquoise pieces are marbled + textured so perfectly.
This 2nd look features the new Vive9 skin gift which I think is done really well. There's lots of options in this gift (teeth/no teeth; frex/no frex + various tones) so if you demo this skin + it works well with your shape, the $150L group join fee is totally worth it since this group gives skin gifts on a regular basis. -- There's an innocent yet curious face going on here that I like. Plus if you're into the teeth thing (I kinda go back and forth), the Vive9 teeth skins are some of the cutest.
Finally, y'all might be wondering about the ears + tail since normally I'm not so much a neko style champion. My utterly fabby fashionista friend Linda Mensing found these *M* Friends pretties (you rock gf!) + I just can't tell you how fun these are. Velvety furry + so so twitchy, these were simply too way cute to resist. Plus they match the shorts + free tasty head cake from Kue.

Hope everyone's having a purrrfectly fine Friday. Love + fashionista kisses to all!

Party, Then Relax

This free 1-shoulder black cocktail dress by Honey is so totally what I would wear to a charity gala if I was in a classically elegant kinda mood.
Gotta love all the girlish touches here. The pretty shoulder bow is so feminine + there's a wonderfully subtle shine to this satiny texture, which highlights these pretty "waves" of skirt ruffles. -- I just luhs skirts that move in a soft, fluttering motion around the waist like this one. The skirt is mod; I shortened it just a tad so that the black lace-topped stockings (free from Kyoko Couture) could peek thru.

Check out this pretty bow detail on the back too.
The free jewels I'm wearing are the new pink + gold "North Star" jewelry set that Ganked creator Misti Merryman has set out in her store. Misti's designs have been all over the feeds for her large, statement jewelry at tres reasonable prices; there's also a 2-minute flip time lucky chair here featuring a big bold black necklace/earrings/bracelet set. *NOTE: If you previously purchased anything here, all jewelry is now resizable so you can contact Misti directly to get a resizable version (this is what I did on her "Rocklove" pieces that I had previously purchased).

I'm normally not so much a pumps kinda gal but it's hard to resist when the Nardcotix people get the classic pump to a tee. These fabby Wizard of Oz-like ruby heels were 1 of several shoe finds that Dream + I scooped from the $100L moving sale there yesterday (I don't know how long this sale is lasting). The li'l droopy bow in back is so cute too.
This smexeh boyfriend shirtdress is so totally what I would slip on post-gala for that chillaxin' time at home. (I actually forgot about this previously free gift until recently + then remembered how much I love it). These awes pink pumps are yet another Nardcotix $100L sale scoop + just for a fun touch, I added this luscious grape-colored round purple gem necklace, another free group jewelry gift by Ganked. The ciggie was just 'cuz.
There's a ton of wonderful skin gifts on the grid right now + this $1L skin I'm wearing thruout this post by A.Y.Y. is one of my faves. The shading on the face especially is really nicely done + these lips seem especially pouty.
The straight bangs/messy updo hair I'm wearing thruout is another $1L find courtesy of Mikan (*mwuahs* to Dream for making sure I got this one) + I couldn't resist adding my fave fabby Mandala metal cuffs for this more dressed-down look.

After all the partyin' + relaxatin', gotta rest up for . . . moar shoppingz. Love + fashionista kisses to all!
