I’m ready to waltz around the garden in this gorgeous Blush Dress from ANE. The dress features a sheer and classic version, and a HUD to change the colors of the dress and leaves. I’m wearing the sheer version in a soft lilac color, with silver leaves. The sheer version of this dress has tiny mesh holes, it’s not just a sheer texture. The dress also shimmers in different lighting cos of materials. I rarely ever notice materials, but it’s pretty breathtaking when it’s done right.
I changed my skin again! I’m wearing the new Judith skin from Glam Affair. I’m glad to have a few new skins to add to my skins rotation.

L+R+W has just released the Fairy Rose heels!! L+R+W is a collaboration between two wonderful brands, Love Soul and R2. I’m so excited about these because they’re a single attachment (shoes+invisiprim are together) so I can wear them with pants that have cuffs!!
Also… the HUD system has been updated to a more user-friendly menu with 3 different tabs: Nail Color, Skin Color, and Resize & Pose. Everything is more visual than before, so it’s very very easy to color match your skin tone and select nail colors, etc.
Each pair of L+R+W shoes also includes an Update Card, so when they upgrade or make changes you get the update for FREE! yay!
My favorite feature is the ability to show/hide roses, it’s really like getting 3 pairs of shoes for the price of one.
This release has 9 different pairs to choose from — the White has 4 different versions, each having a different rose color. These heels would make great bridal shoes!!!
Sometimes I think that Gogo is me, and sometimes I think that she’s Gogo, a virtual girl with a pretty fabulous wardrobe. I enjoy blogging, and I have a certain casual style that I favor, that I know a lot of you guys do too. I think that people who call my style ‘boring’ are just trying to ruin my day, and that’s not possible… cos I happen to love casual. I love bright colors, I love that my photos are usually cheerful. Have some flowers, and lighten up!
My fabulous outfit is from Teefy, and check out these gorgeous new Uvola Sling Back shoes from Hucci.

I don’t usually wear short hairstyles, but this new Scarlet style from LeLutka is so cute! I also needed a dark Brown hair color to match the brows on this skin, so I picked the Naturals pack which includes my favorite Blonde (Marilyn) and my favorite Brown (Bournville).
It seems like the Arcade has just ended, cos I still haven’t unpacked a few things from the last round, but it’ll be back again next week (on June 1st). Mochi from Pink Fuel will be releasing this GORGEOUS Harley Skin, plus a super-duper rare one that I won’t spoil for you guys 😀 I loooove the face and lips on this skin so much!
Today I’m wearing the newly released Amelia dress from Compulsion. I love the shape of this dress, so realistic and natural, especially the folds in the skirt. The Fatpack also includes a HUD to change the texture, which I love , cos HUDs are super efficient and saves inventory space!
I went to Cosmetic Fair this morning, and found so many fabulous and inexpensive makeup sets. I’ve created five looks above, featuring just one skin (Pink Fuel, Harley) and seven different SL cosmetics brands. My focus was on eye makeup, cos they usually work with every skin.
Brands featured:
Nuuna – Ara Makeups & Pekka – Eyeliner Combo 2 Essences – Fake Painted Eyebrows (Pink) cheLLe – Moon Dust eyeshadow & MONS Makeups – Black Eyeliner Series La Malvada Mujer – Lux #2 KOOQLA – NY Summer Shadows 06
I was able to create so many unique looks just from these packs, and they cost less than the price of ONE skin!
Did you find something amazing at Cosmetic Fair? Share!
My sl kitchen is a work in progress. Wilma said I should pretend like I’m baking Apple pie, so here are all the ingredients but I’m searching on SLex right now for a baked Apple pie to hide in the oven for later 😛
It’s time to get a Flickr Pro account if you are a fan of the photo hosting service/social media platform. The Flickr commercial use policy has been in effect for years, so even though they have not enforced it in the past, they are now. It’s time to pay up or risk having your account terminated. According to this blog post on NWN, many Second Life residents with FREE accounts are in violation of the commercial use policy.
If you are a designer in SL and make money, consider Flickr Pro the cost of doing business, if you actually want to do business and not call it a “hobby”. As my friend says, even hobbies cost money. I’m surprised at the pushback from some SL designers and bloggers since Flickr is the photo social platform of choice for SL residents, and not even prohibitively expensive. It’s only $50/year! I’ve been a Flickr Pro member since November 2007 (proof below) and an SL snapshot addict with over 19,660 photos. I definitely see value in Flickr from the moment I started using it to cross-post my blog photos and saw that I could multi-task by promoting my blog and follow my favorite brands at the same time!
There are so many reasons that Flickr is superior to other photo hosting services, that it would be a huge loss for designers and Second Life residents if it shuts down. Would you support a service that you use for pleasure or for profit, for $50/year? Many brands in SL don’t even update their blog nowadays, so they rely on the social power of Flickr to share their new releases. And what will become of “flickr bloggers”, if they can no longer credit brands and post links? If you find value in Flickr, it’s time to go pro before it bites the dust.
If you want to remain a FREE Flickr account, here’s what you need to do to not have your account terminated:
