Attitude

1 JfL Round

There’s just something about putting on a hat that screams “attitude.” Sassy, confident, pert and perky.

They say attitude changes everything. Attitude is everything. But for me, attitude is all about the hat.

Johnfrancis Laville of JfL Hats is releasing several versions of his round hat for the Jewelry & Accessories Fair, beginning December 5. Check back when the event opens for the link to the fair.

You can pick up a little attitude of your own.

Pretty stuff I’m showing off:

So Not A Fashion Model

1 So Not A Fashion Model

I have never considered myself a fashion blogger. That’s probably ironic since I mainly blog Second Life fashion. But other than Johnfrancis Laville of JfL Hats, I don’t blog for any fashion designers, other than those who are in the few events I blog for. And Johnfrancis is primarily a men’s designer.

So imagine my surprise when I received notification that I had been nominated for an Avi Choice Award for Favorite Fashion Blogger. I was stunned, shocked even, and not just a little bit excited. I never imagined that I would receive a nomination for an award for my blogging. I have always just done it because it is fun. I have always tried to blog only when I felt that I could do justice to what I was blogging, whether it is home & garden, poses, a location or fashion, and that is why I haven’t been blogging as frequently as I used to. I am usually too tired during the week to do a photograph justice, so I content myself with a couple of shoots on the weekend that I can live with. Even then, more shots end up in the bin than land on this page.

Voting opened yesterday for the Avi Choice Awards. I am honoured to be in the company of nominees such as Strawberry Singh, Harper Beresford, Love Trill, Lucie Bluebird, Oakley Foxtrot and of course, my lil Cao. Many of the other 29 bloggers I have never had the fortune to read. But I am humbled to be in the company of those who inspired someone enough to nominate them.

I have no idea who nominated me. Whomever it was, I thank you. I am under no illusion that I will win, but I am touched by the recognition of being someone’s Favourite Fashion Blogger, especially considering I am so NOT a fashion model ❤

Voting is open until 3pm SLT on December 8th. If you would like to cast your vote, you can do it on the Avi Choice Fashion Awards blog.

Tell Me The Story

1 Wistful

I didn’t really have a reason for this photo. I just put on an outfit, rezzed a few items, plopped down on the suitcase and played with Windlight until I found something I liked.

I think there is a story here, looking at the image. Is she moving in or moving on? Or is she simply taking shelter on her travels?

Will you tell me the story?
