I’ve had the same two New Year’s Resolutions for the last two years.
1. Eat more cupcakes.
2. Buy more stuff.
This pose and the new outfit I’m wearing illustrate just how well I’ve kept these resolutions đ

That LBD
Every girl has one. Or if she doesn’t, she’s always on the look out for that one perfect Little Black Dress. It’s a wardrobe staple that probably inhabits at least 72% of women’s closets (I made that stat up – but it sounds about right to me đ ) And I capitalise it on purpose – it’s a fashion statement all on it’s own!
I swore to myself when I started this blog it would be about photography in Second Life – NOT about fashion. There are more of those than I could ever get through, and I check out a LOT of them. But I am an admitted clothes horse, shoe whore and hair aficionado. I am the “go to girl” for shopping in Second Life amongst my friends there. So it was inevitable that at some point, fashion would be the focus of a blog post.
This dress is the reason why. I found it while shopping with my sister, Maddie, and as soon as I tried on the demo, I melted. THIS is the LBD I have been looking for! It’s sleek, sophisticated and oh, so sublime. Not to mention sexy and smokin’ hot!
So, here’s to the Little Black Dress – a dog may be man’s best friend, but the LBD is a girl’s đ

That Troublesome Photo
I love this photograph. And I hate this photograph! It’s one that I shot and thought, “Oh! I’m going to LOVE working with this!” Instead, I have gone back to it time after time, trying different processes and techniques, and I’m still not happy with it!
But I want to share my frustrations and challenges, as well as those photos I am (somewhat) pleased with. And this, so far, is the most frustrating and challenging picture I’ve done…
I’ll keep going back to it. It’s my Achilles’ Heel. And one day…maybe…I’ll get it right.
