I love this new Sylvia hairstyle from Truth. It comes with a plain or scripted with a streaks version. I’m channeling my inner Avril today, hence the title of this post.
I don’t often feature poses by itself but I really should more often. Fashion blogging would be impossible without a variety of nice poses to show off the items. I’m featuring StoRin today, who has a small but growing collection of poses. I find that poses from StoRin fits me pretty well and Annah Whitfield has a lot of standing poses, which is perfect for blogging.
Shown below is two separate poses packs from StoRin: Something Cute and Curvylicious. They’re all mixed up in the picture, so I’m not sure which pose came from which pack, so you’ll have to visit StoRin to find out 🙂
What I’m Wearing:
Truth – Sylvia Streaked (Swedish)
LeLutka – Lola (Light) Base (L Brows)
LeLutka – Lola (Lipstick) Fuschia
Hucci – Ring My Bell (Wild Pink)
Miam Miam – Diamond Heart & Key Necklace
Miam Miam – Diamond Heart & Key Bracelet
Maitreya Gold – Shanti (Leopard)
Hiiiiiiiii! I’m so excited by all the new releases this week from lots of favorite brands in SL. First up, is this darling Wilde hairstyle from LeLutka. This hairstyle is so retro/cute and really reminds me of this girl on YouTube.
Looking for some gorgeous new eyes? Check out these new Secret Window Eyes from ID. The eyes are available at the Phillipine Disaster Charity Event for just $100L! Goodies for a good cause? See you there! This event ends on December 26th, 2001.
My outfit is so sparkly, thanks to the new Sequin Cardigan from Mon Tissu. I’m pairing it with the Westbury Mini (it’s mesh, also from Mon Tissu) and the Glitter Peeptoe Pumps from SLink adds a lil’ more sparkle. I don’t typically wear Yellow with Olive, but I must say this is a fantastic combo.
Aems did a great job keeping this blog updated while I was missing in action! If you’re a designer and you like her style, send review copies to Aemeth Lysette in-world. I am baaaaack, with fabulous new goodies from Mutresse, Exile, and The Secret Store.
Valentine’s is in the air! 🙂

I was so excited to go to the Gaeta 1 / Zindra Town Hall, and I ended up leaving that meeting feeling disappointed.
First of all, I didn’t want to say this, but I will. The Town Hall could have been planned so much better. Dear Lindens, please make a question submission form, collect questions throughout the week, then choose the most informative ones to answer live. Letting everyone ask questions in local chat was complete chaos, and a lot of people couldn’t stay on topic. I was also surprised it was entirely handled through chat. You know that meme that says, this could have been an email? Yeah. That.
This meeting could have been genuinely informative if they had come in with a clear list of answers, explained exactly what residents need to know, then saved the last 15 minutes for open Q&A. Why that didn’t happen is anybody’s guess. Sometimes these meetings feel like Linden employees struggle with creating an agenda and sticking to it.
I was also disappointed to learn that residents who bought in on April 15 or after the expansion blog post went live seem to be treated like second class citizens. The relocation process should not prioritize only the biggest landowners or the people who have held land there the longest.
If I were managing this move, I would contact every current landowner, I think they said there were around 349, and ask two simple questions:
Do you want to move to New Zindra?
Can you move now?
If the answer is yes to both, put those residents at the top of the migration list and start moving them immediately. The people with more complex requests, unusual parcel needs, or plans to relocate elsewhere can be handled afterward.
Residents who are ready now should be first in line. Tier doesn’t stop while people sit in limbo, and it would be nice if Linden Lab remembered that.
I hope this whole thing wraps up within weeks. If the new continent is ready to go, I’m ready to move too.
And now onto what I’m wearing, because even when it isn’t a fashion post, it somehow becomes one.
Another round of Anthology just opened, and this shimmery dress is the Artemis Dress by Madame Noir. This dress is an example of when PBR is done so well it creates reflections and highlights correctly. With this outfit, I needed to find a place to serve as the backdrop for my photo. I opened the Destinations menu in-world looking for a music venue, and somehow ended up outside an 80s movie theater. I love The Breakfast Club, so naturally I had to take the picture in front of the poster.
MG Fashions has recently released some really great casual pieces that can be mixed-and-matched together and the colors are really soft and pretty. I’ve been quite obsessed with Nautical themed decor lately, so was really happy to see some Nautical tops and jackets that will compliment my mood if I ever get that yacht I want! (I’m still waiting for a nice drivable one and not the attach-to-your-avatar kind.)
This outfit is perfect for shopping and I love the matching Nautical Earrings from NoLabel. The MG Martina Sweater has a great sculpted neckline and sculpted sleeves.
I love skinny jeans, the textures and sculpted cuffs are great on these Dark Blue ones which are sure to become a staple in my inventory. Even virtually, I go for the ones that look like they are comfortable and will not cover my sexy heels!
This is the gorgeous long Nautical Coat in Slate Blue. I’ve come across a lot of nautical themed items in SL, but they’re mostly bikinis and short skirts. This is the first coat I’ve seen and it is fabulous!
I bought a set of tribal face tattoos from Sorry.Asia. Is this brand new, or just new to me? I haven’t ever seen the brand name until this week, so I guess they are new-ish!
I’m piling on the tattoo layers today, so if you’re using an SL client that does not have this capability, you’re really missing out! My favorite teeth tattoo is still the Aegyo Teeth tattoo layer from Mozz, even though I’m constantly buying and trying different brands.
Hucci has just released this goddess-like Waterfall bikini set in a billion colors, so there’s something for everyone. I chose to wear the Ocean color, cos I just love this vibrant blue color, it goes so well with Gold jewelry.
