Writing from Kissimmee, Florida. Fashion for Life has been spectacularly successful so far this year.  The report from the sidebar counter at the event blog is at least L$4.3 million — that’s better than USD $16,000 contributed, with better than four days left in the event.  Not bad, people! If you’re looking for some ideas, [...]

Reblogged from It's Only Fashion: Monica Outlander of MiaMai has produced a gorgeous pantsuit with a gorgeous wool serge. I love its rich texture and jewel tone colors.

One reason many of us got into Second Life in the first place was for the chance to explore. It was only afterwards that we became contaminated with the tendency toward conspicuous consumption (grin). Cajsa Lilliehook of It’s Only Fashion still does an occasional turn inside a photosphere; but these days, she’s more inclined to [...]

Besides, it’s a great dress! ===== I am wearing the Carmen dress from Kunglers for Fashion For Life. It’s clear it’s inspiration comes from the fiery [...]

I hope you’ll join me in wishing a speedy recovery for my friend Cajsa Lilliehook of It’s Only Fashion, who went into the hospital for an operation.  You can get a little more information by reading the article below from her blog partner and even closer friend, Gidge Uriza, but most of all you’ll get [...]

No sooner did I get back home RL yesterday than I found an invitation to a rezz-day party for my friend Cajsa Lilliehook in the E-mail.  (Almost everything in the past week sent to me in world was capped, since I had no connection to Second Life on the dinky laptop there.)  I managed to [...]
