Took my newest look dancing last night for the first time, and had quite the surprise! Although I had all my built-in mocap expressions turned off, my Neve had thoughts of her own about showing off her bento features… added a whole new dimension to my dancing inworld. Personally, I think it made my look even better and more fun, and drew even more attention to how all those sexy Tonic curves looked in this fantastically shimmery wrap dress! Although I will admit to a strange feeling that my avatar had gone rogue and was operating outside of my control lol!

Thankfully the snow has finally stopped for a few days here in RL, but I’m still loving its beauty in SL. I also love that I don’t have to totally bundle up in bulky coats, scarves, and gloves just to set a foot outside my door, but can show off awesome new finds like this mix-n-match outfit I put together from MOZ Designs. I just love all the details on the clothing, from the two little buttons on the cropped cardigan to the MOZ name on the jean snap. And yes, ALL the items I’m wearing — from the tube top to the nail polish — offer lots of color choices, but somehow I just love the way black-and-white looks in the snow.

Also, it´s party time this Saturday Jan 13th on the MOZ Designs Sim from 3.30 – 5.30 SLT!! There will be a DJ and Gifts, Prizes and really good music. See the official invitation below!

The minute I saw this gown, I knew I had to blog it. Pure white, with amazing textures on the bodice, the torso and the openlacework “skirt”, it fits like a dream… not even dancing required a tap on the alpha HUD. This beautiful gown even includes shoes and matching jewelry (plus wings which I didn’t wear), so it’s incredibly easy to put a look together. And although the dress might be called Purity, there’s no question that it’s incredibly sexy and shows off my Tonic Curvy body and legs to its absolute best.

First post of 2018, and the New Year is off to a good start! My new look is all set (well, probably… I’m always tweaking) and I absolutely love the added details and more finished look of a mesh head while still looking like ME. I also now have a 2nd sponsor — MOZ Designs, featured in this post — whose clothes I love and whose Tonic sizes always fit perfectly without a lot of fiddling with the alpha hud.  So here’s to a great year, inworld and in real life to all of us!

So I finally broke down and bought a mesh head, due to an extremely generous and very short-term promotion over at LAQ! Been a bit lost and struggling with it all, and am definitely still tweaking her a bit, but am finally on the right road.  And as this midriff-baring Weekender Outfit from Graffitiwear shows, the LAQ head works perfectly with my Tonic Curvy body… I’m really happy with how much the new me is looking like the old me, only better!

One of the things I love to do in SL (and yes, there are many), is to get all dolled up and go out in formal style. Somehow it makes special occasions — or even just an otherwise normal evening out on the grid — feel that much more special. For my inworld celebration of my RL birthday, I kicked it up another notch with this sensational floaty dress from Allure. Beautifully styled and — because it’s in a Tonic size and not an applier — it just slides over my curves, revealing them in an incredibly sexy way. What pushes the look over the top are the add-on flexi pieces —  including a shoulder scarf —  that swirl beautifully as you dance, making you feel like you’re floating with the music. Includes a pair of incredible heels that are so cool I might actually “borrow” them for other gowns as well!

I know I sound like a broken record, but I am just loving this year’s crop of winter outfits!

I’m not big into frilly lingerie… except at holiday time. It’s just so perfect in front of a roaring fire and all the holiday decorations! And again, I just think that Carrie’s has the absolute best when it comes to underthings that are not meant to be worn “under things”.  What I love about this frilly little set is that it definitely says holiday even when it’s not RED. It also says very clearly that it’s time for a little celebration of the two of us being together this holiday season…

Freshly fallen snow is the best! It’s been really cold here in real life, but not much snow… yet so I love that it’s all over the grid! Not to mention all the great new clothes that go along with it, like these completely revamped jeans by MOZ, which offer great textures (yes, there’s a HUD) and now fit my Tonic curves perfectly. Not only that, they come proportioned for flat OR high feet, so you can wear whatever footwear you prefer. Low-cut and belted, they pair wonderfully with all kinds of tops. I loved the look with this great little FREE jacket!

As someone who loves to do SL photography, I spend a lot of time exploring the grid. While wandering the amazing Aspen Fell sim, I hit a rainstorm. At exactly the same time, Beth Hart’s amazing song Caught Out in the Rain started playing in my ears. I decided it was a sign for this blog post, and my outfit turned out to be just perfect for a rainy day!
