Lourdes’ SLife of Luxury: Retro for the Militant

A buddy of mine, who is rather cute when in militant mode, recently attended the Vintage Fair and she was a bit disappointed at the lack of representation of a certain segment of Retro Pop Culture. I disagreed I said its there its just in how the user chooses to dress it up. I vowed to get [...]

6231173127_efae46f97e_z

I had an issue awhile back where someone who had been a total asshat to other creators in the community decided to coordinate their own event. There was a discussion on plurk, and someone said, “Even if the event coordinator is an ass, at least support the creators in the event.”  The creators in the [...]

Lourdes’ SLife of Luxury: School Daze

Its that time of year again when the little munchkins go back to school. Since I graduated high school I thank the universe that I don’t have to go through that ever again. I think high school was the longest 4 years of my life.  On top of it being back to school time, planning [...]

Everyone is all excited about mesh being released across the grid. Mesh clothing and accessories are popping up on the feeds.  One of the downsides is that mesh clothing does not conform to your shape.  You wear and alpha to make your shape disappear and then you take on the shape of the creator of [...]

Moody This week I’m participating in Gidge’s SL Weekly Words Challenge. The two words for this week are wants [...]

Sometimes I sit back and think about my summers growing up. Fond memories of the long ride on the D Train to Coney Island. The Nathan’s on Coney Island was the only one in the city you could get fried clam strips, and that was always the highlight of the trip. Back in the neighborhood [...]

Lourdes’ SLife of Luxury: The Affairs of Dragons

5977309933_9a822aa93c_b

On July 3, 1999 I purchased a book that was highly recommended titled A Game of Thrones.  Over the past 11 years I’ve kept up with all the books. I’m currently reading A Dance With Dragons and its rather slow going. Why? Because my least favorite storyline is prominent is this book.  Daenerys Targaryen is [...]

Lourdes’ SLife of Luxury: My Casserole for Kess

FO1D18_tangerine-glazed-ham_s4x3_lg

Gidge proposed the idea of doing a “Casserole” for Kess. Where I’m from there is period before the funeral, usually after the wake, where friends and family get together.  During this time there is the undertone of having lost a loved one, but its a time to eat, drink, dance and a laugh in remembrance of the [...]

This year was my fourth Hair Fair. I still remember the first, it was an egyptian theme.  I was all of 3 months old and I was totally overwhelmed with so much hair. At that point I had not yet settled on which hair color would be my favored color.  As you can see from [...]

Hemos perdido aun este crepúsculo. Nadie nos vio esta tarde con las manos unidas mientras la noche azul caía sobre el mundo. He visto desde mi ventana la fiesta del poniente en los cerros lejanos. A veces como una moneda se encendía un pedazo de sol entre mis manos. Yo te recordaba con el alma [...]

  LeeZu is one on those stores that has been one of my favorites for awhile. She is always very creative in her designs and the quality is always top notch.  I tend to admire from afar her more creative designs, because I know that I could never do alot of them justice.  When I saw the [...]
