Feels like I am always running off to one place or another. This week, I’m off to the beach to spend time with family for some big birthdays. I suppose this style is a little hodge podge but I feel like it’s apropos the rainy fall weather in Boston. Comfortable and familiar.

Incidentally, I tried to find these pretty flats from Friday in a darker color but I couldn’t find them at the main shop or on Marketplace (in case you’re looking for them too). I’d love these in a spicy pumpkin texture (and IRL too).

Back after next weekend.

More than halfway through September and the weeks keep barreling away. I’m back in Boston (it sucks to be a Boston sports fan right now, tho – Red Sox and Patriots) and as my work winds down IRL, I have a lot more free time. I don’t always feel inspired to check out what’s new in SL but this offering from (fd) – Fashionably Dead – stopped me in my tracks.

At first glance the ad didn’t speak to me so I almost skipped over the whole thing at Collabor88 but when all was said and demoed, I had fatpacked this gorgeous modern blazer and fallen head over heels with the sheer top and skirt – somehow vintage and futuristic at the same time. Completely brilliant. I added a shellacked hairbase to take it a bit more vintage and a bit edgier simultaneously.

Who knew that a big bow could completely reengage me in SL fashion? As a result, I had to double down. One good bow deserves another…but this one’s on a headband ofc.

I fatpacked this dress from SHIFUKU (a brand that seems to have just added Perky sizing, yay!) because I couldn’t choose just one pattern (florals mostly, but I was still so attracted to it!). First up, I went with this moody, deep fall number. In fact, I am probably pushing the season a bit with the overall look but today in Boston was so chilly in the early morning that I couldn’t resist. I do <3 Fall so very, very much.

Hurricane Lee is heading in our direction tonight/tomorrow so depending on the weather, I might be inside long enough to style another look, this time inspired by something so frikking unique from Fashionably Dead (fd) that I didn’t love until I tried the demo!

I haven’t been around for a few weeks but I felt like a really big bow would cheer me up. And it worked. When has it not? None of this stuff is new anymore, and tbh, I haven’t been to any event in weeks – but I love this look for fall.

Unfortunately, I had to buy this skirt from Emery twice. I guess I must have tidied it too quickly and then emptied my deleted items without realizing it was in there. Needless to say, the creator didn’t seem to have a Redelivery option and never responded to two notecards with messages and transaction history. So, I bought it again because a good jean skirt in a perfect length is like a unicorn in SL. Hardly any creator releases skirts that don’t expose at least one ass cheek *roll eyes*. I love, love, love this one. Twice worth it, tbh.

Hopefully will be back soon.
