Truth made new hair!!!! And one of them is named after me (and any other Gogo's out there)! I didn't think it would be that exciting to have a Truth hair named after me, but it totally is! There should be a collection ~ the Gogo I – XCVII. Just sayin'…
Truth – Gogo (Mocha) <– omg you all have to get it!
Truth – Ashlynn (Mocha)
Truth – Harlow (Mocha) w/ color changeable headband
I'm wearing an old beloved skin from Laqroki (when it was still RaC) called Carina. I loved this face sooo much, I wore it for more than half a year straight! Back when I was fairly new, people weren't such big skin whores. At least I wasn't. I found a skin that I liked, and I thought that was it. Done! I am hoping that this Carina skin will receive the "glow" treatment from Laq, cos I waaaaaaaants.
Anthology event announced that May will be the last round. This is the only event that I’m a blogger for, so it feels kind of sad seeing it end after two years. But honestly, I also think there are too many events on the grid, so losing one is probably healthy overall for the Second Life economy.
Events create this rushed mentality for both creators and consumers. Before I even get a chance to unpack and show you my latest outfit, it’s already three releases old from the same creator. Now it feels dated, it’s no longer at whatever event it launched at, and I don’t even know if it made it to the main store. Events are not that great for bloggers.
My blog posts sell items long after I post them. Years later, people still find old blog posts and go shopping. That’s why event blogging has always felt weird to me, because the content expires so fast. I’ve always been hesitant to sign up for event blogging because I don’t actually want to feel obligated to blog anything. Anthology was super nice about it though. You just blogged a few items per round and could pretty much blog whatever you wanted. Blogger’s choice.
Even though I still blog fashion, I also want to blog about so many other things in SL. That’s why I don’t really sign up to officially blog for a lot of brands or events. If I’m only blogging, on average, once a week, I don’t want my content dominated by one thing. I’m too scattered for that.
So I guess this post is really just to say that Anthology will be missed, at least by me. It was me dipping my toes into event blogging and realizing I probably couldn’t handle a massive event with super strict blogging rules.
Anyway, don’t ask me why I decided to shoot these photos in the dark. Then I realized you couldn’t even see my shoes, so I had to go back and change the EEP light settings.
I love loafers, and these are the Elaine Shoes by Arltos at Anthology. I don’t know how long Arltos has been around, but I only really started noticing them fairly recently, maybe within the past two years? I wear low heels, loafers, flats, sandals, and sneakers. I’m not a fan of sky high shoes. They look uncomfortable, even on virtual feet.
Wunderlichs always amazes me with the accuracy of their historical gowns. I can't say I know for sure that they're accurate since I'm not from these centuries ago, but I've seen the real life inspiration pictures and they look the same (and sometimes the SL version is even better than the original!).
I'm wearing the Wunderlichs Pink Empress lisabeth Hungarian Coronation Gown. This gown includes a plain Pink skirt, Pink skirth Apron (worn above) and Train (also worn above). There are 2 sleeves options, with Ruffles or Without. The gown is huuuuuge, totally Empress-worthy 🙂
I'm wearing Dutch Touch's River II skins today. Each skin includes Blonde, Brown & Black brows and Freckles too. Even though I think Dutch Touch skins are more suited for Dark hair, I'm trying them with Champagne Blonde today and they look pretty cute!

L'oring skins has just released the Sophia skins in 7 makeups. I thought the face was cute, has great lips and a nice body. The eye makeup is too heavy but people who like thick liners and that smudged enjoy these.
Here is Sophia shown in all 7 makeups. As you can see the lipsticks comes in variations of pinks and reds and eye-shadows are pretty much similar on all skins.
Well, the body is nice but I think the nipples are a lil too pink (maybe some people like that?).
I love a good school uniform in SL, and monso gets it right every time! This uniform includes a HUD to change the blazer color, trim, skirt texture, shirt color, and tie texture & style. I don’t like to wear Brown often, but since it is Autumn, I wanted to put together an outfit with warmer tones.
How adorable is this HUD? I had so much fun putting together different uniform colors! If you’re not into school uniforms, this could also be a work uniform, just a really good-looking outfit.
What I’m Wearing:
Pink Fuel – Kumi (Peach) Pure (bwnbrow/crease)
Truth – Guinevere w/ Roots (Swedish)
Monso – My School Look (Blazer) size2/S
SLink – Relax Boots (Brown)
