From time to time I’ve mentioned to my hubby Bradley that it would be nice if he might contribute a little to my blog and give some masculine perspective on Second Life fashion. I was hoping for a nice “couple fashion adventure” where we both dress up and go snap pics at some exotic locale. Anyway….months go by and then last night out of the blue, he asks me to just snap some pics of him in our living room. I obliged, but needless to say, the pics didn’t turn out too well! I finally talked him into some retakes up in my photosphere. He fussed a little about doing it, but overall was a pretty good model! And so here we go – Bradley doing a casual look (casual is his favorite btw)! However, he does assure me that we will still do the dress up thing and all that. And believe me, he does look fabulous in a suit or tux!
Bradley sports a “just let me be me” look with nicely detailed jeans from DrawMachine and a comfy Ramones Logo t-shirt (properties = unknown on this sucker and he can’t remember where he picked it up at.) Moving along….the classic Biker Boots from DrawMachine are some of Bradley’s favorites. Again, these boots are great quality with awesome details! In fact, I liked Bradley’s so much I went and bought myself the womens version of these boots! You should definiltely check out DrawMachine if you haven’t yet! Bradley’s hair is from H2L and I have to say I love this hair on Bradley! Supersexy, as is the nicely done Beat skin from Fleur. Kinda gives him an Orlando Bloom look! Cool Dion Shades from Role Optic and great poses from Long Awkward Pose! I love LAP, Dove Swanson is so generous!
K – let’s just get this over with.
Are we almost done???
I wanna be sedated………………….

I absolutely adore this dress by Gbberish! It is stylish and well made, and the rich colors of cream, burgundy and dusty rose are to die for!! It comes with both a wrist and shoulder corsage, and matching short and long gloves! I completed my look with classic pearls from DarkMouse, pretty cream colored shoes from J’s, and a gorgeous Victorian styled purse from Prelude! My lovely hair is Eleanor from Hair Solutions, which you can currently find at the Hair Fair!! Enjoy :)

If you’re looking for a new place to explore why not try Paris 1900. This is a wonderful sim with lots of things to see and do. Visit the Moulin Rouge, parachute off of the Eiffel Tower, ride the Carousel or just shop ’til you drop!

Hi again! Just wanted to tell everyone about a great new store, Etc., owned by my friend Deandra Watts. I met Deandra on my second day as a noob in SL. She owned a small boutique at the time and she passed me several really cute outfits! So sweet of her! :) Since that time, Deandra has gone on to own and operate her new store called Etc. Etc. offers really cute, trendy clothing at very affordable prices! And although she is just getting started with this venture, you can expect great things from her as she continues on! Here is a sample of what Etc. has to offer.

The Camokini!!!! Also available in 5 different colors. Just what I need for the beach!
