HoPo Mall is The Frugal Fashionista’s Valentine!

HoPoBlog1

It seems to be a general concensus through most of SL that Valentine’s is not a very well-liked holiday. From ramblings on Plurk, in group chat, and the sheer number of tee shirts out for sale with cheerful messages such as “F*** Valentines Day,” I’d guess it’s probably about as popular as Arbor Day when [...]

The Frugal Fashionista Says Goodbye to Barcode & Hello to Belleza

Barcode1

When I heard that my friend Makenzie Irling was closing down her store, Barcode, I got a little bit bummed. It’s a great store with fun, simple clothing items that mix and match so well with just about everything, and the prices are definitely do-able for even the most fussy fashionista.  But, of course, a [...]

FOAM is Back

noveau_001

I am ecstatic today, because Arabella Steadham has informed me via her blog that FOAM is back in-world. YAY! I was really quite sad when they were kicked out of the main grid for being underage. Actually, I was sad about the loss of the hair I’d come to be addicted to. Now, like a [...]

I’ve got an awesome treat for you this week ladies and jellyspoons, an honest to goodness review and interview of the tool SculptCrafter, and it’s creator Contagious Republic. I warn you – it’s a biggun! I stumbled upon this amazing tool while looking for an easy to use way of making sculpts, without me needing [...]

Delora’s out of the Closet by Delora Starbrook, Haven Designs Well hello there, my loyal fans!  Did you miss me?  I know I’ve been missing off the blog for a few weeks, but I had that stupid real life thing going on that was hurting my soul and causing me to not have any time [...]

SCD’s 15 Minutes of Fame: featuring M’Lady and Kaete Guisse Photography

aya-02

With your host – Aya Liotta! Coming to you live from the turn of the century this is Aya Liotta! Okay, you’re right I didn’t time travel, but what I did do this week is take a look into the past to inspire some looks for today. I think that fashion seems to repeat itself; [...]

Claudette Cozen?

I’m upset that you guys let me miss this. It’s been up for a WEEK and I haven’t seen hide nor hair, nor slight mention of it from all of you! Shame! Fashionista is proud to announce the Grand Opening of Claudette Cozen Couture on April 2nd 2009.

Concord Clothing

Noelle Hathaway, formerly of Elle, Inc. sent me this outfit from her new brand Concord Clothing that I just had to show you. I love pairing red and navy; it’s a classic combination that always looks tasteful. The top comes on multiple layers, as does the included tank top. The jeans come with classic, sculpted [...]

Fishy Strawberry and Bare Rose

Hi, I have tried to follow advice on how to get my pictures to look slightly better. Hopefully this will make SL look better than SL looks to me! First up is this dress from Fishy Strawberry, which comes with an optional bra in case you don’t want to show off the sides of your [...]

Run to RunoRuno

What can you get for only L$50? My new favorite dress!

Deck Chairs and Potato Sacks

Shout out to my peeps in the Northern Hemisphere! It’s so freakin’ hot, my deck chair melted; and I was so inspired by this moment of weather-induced agony that I decided to let it drip all over my body. Uhh… it may not sound right, but this dress from TWEE (named “Melted Deckchair”, of course) [...]

New Hotness

Like most fashion bloggers, I tend to prance off to the “hot new thing” (HNT) when someone opens a shop or releases something that looks especially impressive. So, true to form, I trotted over to Kari, a new installation by Menno Ophelia. Word on the feed says we’ve been waiting ages for Kari to open, [...]

Kungler Designs + +plus = Heaven

There have been many times in my second life life that I’ve scoured blogs for new and interesting places. And usually I don’t come empty handed from those said scourings. One day, I came upon a place called +plus and then I was in accessories heaven. Picture Courtesy of Helena Compton’s +plus blog **more after [...]

Heartattack & Vine @ The Starlust Motel

I went to the Starlust Motel opening today and was absolutely peached to discover a new brand called H&V, by Guerrila Gobo. It’s fab. Honestly, I didn’t even pay attention to the prices as I was snapping up the gear, but I’m sure it can’t be too expensive as I didn’t cringe in horror while [...]

Siddean Munro, your clothes make me drool..

Because of the recent entries about theft and copyright issues on every fashion blog on the feed, I’ve been a little distracted to be able to write a full-on article. But I am back with vengeance! Siddean Munro has such a classy store in CG Heart called SLink with colored glass windows and a great [...]

Brand New Goods for Men

With all the hullabaloo about artists ripping other artists and whatnot, it’s always good to see it when a new creator gets into the act and pumps out some goods that are not only well crafted, but are cheap too! Each of what I am going to show you is less than L$100, brought to [...]

Axel! Axel! Axel!

I was recently dropped a few items from Niki Axel. And this is what the notecard stated: [Axel] sell hand-drawn contemporary high quality clothing in what we like to think of as a boutique-style atmosphere. We want to provide funky, fresh, couture fashions to the SL community We make all our textures from scratch, and [...]

A Passion for Fashion Fruit

One of the best things about searching for formals is uniqueness. And then there is also pretty colors. I have to say, we are all superficial somewhat — I think we are because we all want pretty clothes and colorful fabrics for those said clothes. Fashion Fruit by Maryna Wind provides the prettiness and the [...]

Zaara Indian Couture – It’s Currylicious!

I’ve been surfing around the What’s New website lately to look for inspiration on new outfits when Zaara Indian Couture completely caught my eye. Her attention to detail amazed me hence I summoned some courage to IM Zaara Kohime to ask her for some review items. The best part about this whole review experience with [...]

Feeling of Royalty

I’ve been feeling a little Second Life depressed lately due to the large amount of lag. This entry is actually a long time in coming! I’ve finally got my butt off the couch and did some post processing on these lovelies. I can’t say I had to do much, it’s like trying to make something [...]

These chicks are so .:Naive:.

If you have a brain and a heartbeat, chances are you fascinate me. I’m curious about where you come from, what you’re doing, and what makes you tick. Imagine my thrill when I got to dive into the minds of an up-and-coming designer dyad, Leah McCullough & Abbie Dharnen of .:Naive:.! Let’s jump right into [...]
