Film Noir Fantasies

So I might've had just a lil too much fun with the pics for this blog but, what can I say? You already know me well enough. This always happens when I am having fun.
The DRD set available at 9th Republic is an Industrial set, still when all was said and done and I put myself in the pics (which I wasn't going to do at first!) it reminded me of something very film noir, which is something I love! So I edited my last one in a black and white version as a dedication to my love for all things film noir. All I needed was my criminal to come and find me!

The week has been a long and busy one for me but I am SO glad it's Friday! Finally!
I'm hoping to get a few posts in over the weekend but that's not a promise.
I wanted to thank my readers for being so patient with me. I have never been a 'bang it all out' blogger. My posts have always been spread out over a few days, but right now...that time has been even more so. RL has been super hectic and balancing that and the blog has been tough.
My blog is my creative outlet and my place to go on mini rants and my place to be free...and my place to be a chatterbox to the masses without disturbing the introvert inside me! So, again, thanks so much for your patience. I may not post everyday...but my heart is in everything I post <3

Back soon hopefully!

Do You Hear What I Hear?

{Taken Here}

I have chatted you all up many a times about my mad obsession with music. I have a certain love for it. I'm eclectic...meaning I can jump from one Genre to the next quite easily. Wanna play a game? I so did say that in the creepy "Saw" voice! Okay, so I am using shuffle on my main Ipod, yes I have three in order to survive! So, shuffle on my main (10 songs only) goes like this, and I will be totally honest and not switch it up. (Don't judge!)

1. This is Not - Static-X

2. I Just Wanna F*ck You - Dr, Dre

3. Simple Survival- Mushroomhead

4. Be Quiet & Drive- Deftones

5. Tyler's Song- Coal Chamber

6. Dreams Collide- God Module

7. Counting Bodies Like Sheep- A Perfect Circle

8. Let Me Teach You How To Eat- Reverend Horton Heat

9. Nocturne- Chopin

10. I Love Playin' With Fire- The Runaways

So haha you can see a lil bit of the diversity there amongst my music, I am surprised no Tejano music popped up, there is in fact some on there! 

My main point is that my music heavily inspires me! Sometimes I think that when I am on my death bed, if you put my headphones on me and crank the volume (make it Tool!), I will probably stand right up and take off running. Some of my music can bring me to tears in a moment, some of it is just mesmerizing! Do you have a song that can take you back to a certain moment in life? Songs that hold memories of sadness or great memories of happiness. I think music holds so much power....we simply just don't give it enough credit.

So having said that...may the power of music and all its badassery lead you to these awesome Remarkable Oblivion headphones at Fameshed. I kinda fell in love with them and they really inspired the pic and the whole vibe for this pic!

Hopefully I will see you all again soon. Always soo many pics floating around in my head and not enough time to post them all.... *sigh!*

Elven Sanctuary {Fantasy Faire 2015}

{Taken Here}

With over $5 Million Linden raised so far for Relay for Life, Fantasy Faire has been ah-may-zin! I wish I had all the time in the world, there was certainly a whole lot more I would have loved to show you. I hope that you've all been there by now and had a good time participating in the events, shopping for a good cause and enjoying the incredible scenery.

Each sim is just so well put together, I seriously could take fantasy themed pictures there all day for several months and not get bored and have them all look different! 

So they gave us some blogger challenges and last year I took up a couple. I talked about the first time I heard of cancer. It is definitely something I will never forget. This years challenge, I thought I would tap into a little bit of the  roleplay side of me which is one I used to show a lot more in the beginning of Gia's World and not so much now as I am always feeling rushed between this and real life. SO...this blogger challenge states: Faire Folk- Create a character from the Fairelands. Pick one of the Faire sims as their home, make a look mostly from Faire items, make the character come alive. Take at least one picture of that character in the chosen home sim and blog away!

My character is Daneilea. Born of the Sylvan pride. Princess and heir to the throne. Great Priestess of Arcane Sorcery. Her days are filled with magick, music and love. The love she has for her family, her over protective father and brothers, the people of The Sylvan of Spells and her homeland.

Although I could get on for days about what Daneilea does with her time or how she uses her magick, I still have lots to show and so little time so! Moving forward...
We are on our last days of Fantasy Faire so make sure to pay it a visit soon if you haven't yet!

Here is a list of designers per sim at Fantasy Faire. Use it to guide you to your destination!

"She Likes The Smell of Gasoline.."

 {Taken Here}

Well hello again!

I hope you're all enjoying your week so far. Mine has been a busy one so I just keep repeating to myself that Friday isn't too far behind!

So, I recently got into watching "Sons of Anarchy" but like in a very hardcore kinda way. I watched a few episodes back when and it just didn't catch my attention. Some of my friends kept telling me to try again and so finally after several months I did. Right now, I love it...even though my crush is...no longer a part of the show *SIGH!*. So my new SOA obsession heavily inspired my picture, along with the Reverends song, which I will link below. Of course, DRBC had to show me these sexeh boots, I paired them up with a sexeh jacket from Dark Passions and felt ready to be an 'old lady', as they refer to their women in Sons of Anarchy. These kickass boots come in several different prints and I am sure you will see them again in the blog because, she made latex ones that are to die for! Head over to the DRBC Flickr Pool or DRBC on Facebook to see the other options!

This jacket is a part of the Black Fashion Fair and is only out for 2 more days I think and then it's gone. GONE FOREVER! So run, run now while you have a chance!! (or before she brings it back to the store without the discount lol) There is another plated version as well but Gia likes black and blacker on black so, there's that. 

I fell in love with the skin by AlterEgo. It is currently at Suicide Dollz, which I will also link below. It has a ton of lipstick options, the make up on it is nice and gothy looking and the detail on the skin is gorgeous. Make sure to grab a demo and give it a go!

Okay enough chatter. I have tons to do still and so little time. So much pretties to show though!

Be right back!

 {Taken at Fantasy Faire-Spires of Andolys}

Okay so yes, it took me a couple of days to finally blog all of this but oooooh my gosh! The amount of things that have taken my breath away at the Fantasy Faire...I just can't put into words. Admittedly, I was in fact overwhelmed. Like, where do you start with so much awesome? 

I love events in SL. But I love them even more when they serve a purpose.  If you're not sure what Fantasy Faire is about, please do inform yourself! Click on the link there and see why this event gives us all such a great reason to go shopping and snag some awesome things.

I was blown away with the Spires of Andolys sim, well all of the sims were lovely! This one has a  fairy tale theme going on. In my picture above, I am playing around in the Lost Boys hideout by DRD! Yep, no zombies or gore this round DRD lovers! It's all fairy tale stuff.

I was able to take a few pictures of some of the other things that caught my eye while there. So many awesome views so, I really do hope that you've went there to not only shop but enjoy the views!

{Taken Here}

This lovely caught my eye right away. I just loved the pose and well, she's a mermaid, need I say more?

I obviously had a blast playing with my pics in Photoshop but even without the editing, the scenes are flawless and will have your jaw dropping too. Promise! Also...we are 240K from hitting 3.5 MILLION linden! <--That is JUST in!

Okay, I have so much more to show, so little time. So see you all again soon!

"You're a Bad Little Chick And That's The Word On The Street.."

{Taken at Retroville!}

Genre has already been open for awhile, I just took a bit to collab with myself! I love collabing with my blogger friends in SL but I do realize we all have things that keep us busy both in RL and in SL. We all have sponsors and events to keep up with. So, when I am searching for a partner from now on, I really have to just turn to myself. Less arguments happen. 

I was a bit inspired by 'Orphan Black' of course. Who doesn't love a nice clone war? Just when you thought one Gia was too much to handle I went and rawked your world!

So everything on all four versions of me is by DRBC. She sure did kick some booty at Genre this round but what would you expect? It was 'Rockabilly' themed and we all know DRBC does it best! There's still even more choices for you to choose from and an absolute steal there so make sure to head over, pay Genre a visit and grab stuff <3

Back soon!

"I Will Only Complicate You, Trust In Me And Fall As Well.."

I am SO sorry for my delay. My power supply decided to basically give me the middle finger just as I was having so much fun with Saviad and Pose Fair and alll the other things! Even though I ordered one the same night, it still took alll the way until today to arrive. While I was waiting though, I think I got hooked on a lil show called 'Sons of Anarchy'. Done with season 1 already and it's kinda awesome! Don't be surprised if biker pics start popping up all over the damn place in Gia's World!
So I am tossing in a quickie here that I had finished right before my power supply passed away. The awesome chair I am about to fall off of is by Infiniti, another ah-may-zin pose maker in SL. If you're not familiar with Infiniti, you definitely should be. I love the many different poses included in the chair and the many different ways you can play with it. Drama, sexy and everything else! This was just my lil spin on it. Thankfully, TfAtN sent me some purdy thangs to play with from the 'Create your own Tarot' event. “Create your own Tarot” is a series of Secondlife events exploring one theme of the Major Arcana cards in each month. Last months was 'The Fool' and this months is 'The Magician'. So clearly I didn't stay in theme, or maybe I did. Never can tell!
Okay, get to shoppin'! I have to play catch up <3

Do You Wanna Touch?

{Taken Here}

Did everyone already hit up Collabor88? Yas?! I was glad to see that it was 'Punk' themed and at the same time sad because as a good friend of mine said, "Punk is a way of life, not a style". I was also sad to see the LACK of Joan Jett! UGH Here, fail cards for everyone that missed it but yay for Nylon for including my woman!!

In any case though, regardless of the theme, there is always something I will want at Collabor88. I loved the Tableau hair, even though I hate the band it was named after haha. 

Of course Remarkable Oblivion is there with some absolutely gorgeous shoesies also a collar and earring set and once again I will say that the texture work for RO is just hands down some of the best damn work you will see on the grid!

I paired it all up with one of my sponsors who is also one of the only REAL 'punks' I know in SL and I so wish he could have been a part of that event. With some more amazing texturing and uniqueness, FK Designs is definitely a shop you will want to hit up.

I still have so much stuff to show you from everythaaang so keepin' all things short and keepin' it punk \o/ See you soon!

"I Wish You Were Here..."

I so enjoy being a lil eclectic thing! I can jump from dark to light in just a blink of an eye and I am glad I can. I am far too selfish with things to stay boxed in one genre of ANYthing!
So I am showing you some more Saviad stuff quick. It'll be open tomorrow and there's a ton of different styles there to choose from, all very unique. I choose this one for the 'Look of the Day' because it gave me like a 70's vibe kinda..almost Twiggy-ish so of course you know anything that even slightly touches on my dear Twiggy, I take it!
So keeping it all things short since we have so many events going on!
Collabor88 just opened, On9 just opened, Pose Fair is right around the corner...I can't keep up! Shop all the thangs! I Saw some hot stuff for 100 Block and Genre too so I shall keep you posted!
Back soon luffs!

"As Sweet As the Wind That Blows Me to You..." {Saviad 2015}

 {Taken Here}

Saviad starts soon, April 10th! The list of creators for this event has me so excited. They are definitely some of the most innovative and unique designers on the grid. "Gia..what is Saviad?!" you ask? Well...Saviad is an event where art meets fashion. It is a joint venture between three leading haute couture designers, Solidea Folies, Violator and AD Creations. Haute Couture isn't something that visits Gia's World too often but when it does, we love to go all out! I'm going to have a blast with this event!

It's been awhile since Boudoir has visited Gia's World so I am all too honored to be able to feature it for this event. What a gorgeous outfit and in typical Boudoir fashion, super unique, beautiful and inspiring. 

This is a designer who I allow to inspire my photos when blogging. MY interpretation of this outfit was Springs final release after being held captive by a harsh winter. Spring is full of innocence and rebirth and that was what I tried to capture here while showing this amazing piece of work by Boudoir.

Mark your calenders for this exciting event and keep eyes locked on Gia's World! I've got a few events lined up and lots of goodies to show you <3

I hope you all have a great weekend, whether you're celebrating this Easter holiday or not! Luff your faces, be back soon! Here's a line up of things to come for Saviad!

Don't worry, I wont fall! I promise. Has everyone been to The Dressing Room? It has been one of  my favorite stops for quite a long time now. It is is almost always guaranteed that you're going to run into something that you will like or something you can use. From quality skins, to clothes, make-up, accessories, hair and of course...poses!
I told you The Pose Shop was going to be a permanent in Gia's World and that is a definite now as it is an official sponsor! I am excited about that since the awesomeness doesn't cease and always inspires.
This window pose is available at The Dressing Room this round and it actually is a two person seater and though I started out my picture like that, I ended up having too much fun going solo! However, the two person positioning looks like this..

I love that you can be as creative as you want to be with it. In my picture, I duplicated it and added another wall on either side of me to make it seem like I was in some sort of high rise. Add window props, curtains, backgrounds, or vines, etc etc. Have fun and if you don't know The Pose Shop this is a great time to go snag some awesome goodies at an awesome price!
Back again soon, prepare to see The Pose Shop in all your faces <3

The Reading

{Taken Here}

Just had to get in a post for my Dark Passion...or Dark Passions because I have simply been blown away with the awesomeness emanating from there! As I am sure a lot of you have noticed, Dark Passions has tapped into the Pastel Goth, Creepy Cute...whatever you'd like to call it. Though my preference for the 'gothy' side tends to be more black/bats/Victorian-esque and I didn't think I would be able to go there with this part of the Nu-Goth stuff, I am kinda liking it!

This outfit definitely made its staple amongst my favs and will stay in my virtual closet for future and continuous use from now on! So I hope you all too will make note and come shopping with me to grab these goodies!

Also, check out my boots though! Lindsey Warwick has long since been one of my favorite shoe designers in Second Life. The quality of her shoes NEVER ever ceases to amaze me. Like, this boot makes me want to reach in the screen to rub my thumb on it and hear the squeaking noise! They're not released yet so prepare thine grabby hands (a lil birdy says next week maybe!) and get ready to snag them all in all the colors. AND!!! They're on my Maitreya bodyyyy!

I've currently been in love with this Skinnery skin so prepare for it to be blogged several thousand times! And prepare to see these boots yet again in the all too close future! <3

See you all again soon!

With the weather (slightly) changing, I'm so enjoying these summer time pics. I live vicariously through SL though because, we're expecting snow here this week! *sigh!*

So I celebrate by wearing these DRBC-kinis! So darn cute! If I can wear it with my Maitreya body and it is gorgeous it's such a double win. These are at Carnevil and in lots of different prints! So make your way there and snag them all because believe me, you will want them all! 

Keeping it so short my luffs. We're simplifying a lot in Gia's World so that I can try and blog more. 

I've felt bad because RL has taken it's toll on my blogging time and the only way I can keep blogging is to simplify it by A LOT. I will do my extreme pics when I have a chance but most of my pics will just be quick, fun and showing you the goods to be on your 'to snag' list!

See you soon!

Down On the West Coast... {Skindustrial Bodyworks-SkinFair 2015}

{Taken Here}

Skin Fair this year for me was a challenge...only because last year I had a lot more time to focus on the blog than I do right now. Also because I think I've grown a bit more as a blogger. I realized where my faults were last year but they're all a learning experience. I wanted this one to be more about the skin and less about anything else.

The skin I am in right now well, I am bias. I kind of love love the creator because she is simply an amazing woman and it shows through her work which was exceptional this year! I think one of my favorite things about Skindustrial Bodyworks skins is the highlights. It has a glow on it that just makes it a cake walk when taking pics. No editing needed! I pretty much edited allll around the skin and let the skin do its own job. Also the appliers for loud mouth and Nyam or darn flawless. And yeah, appliers...she makes alll the appliers so that makes Gia a happy girl (even though I know it drives the skin makers nuts! But we love you all long time for it!)

This skin comes in a few different shades which I will show you here in a fancy shmancy flashy thiny (unedited) and gorgeous!

Even though I love my pale skins...I was actually walking around for a good while in the darker tanned tone. They're just so gorgeous! 

Walking around at this beach mind you...which I've been camping out at for a few days because it's still cold where I am so yes, I am California Dreamin'!

If you don't know Skindustrial Bodyworks, this is a great time to head over to the Skin Fair while it's still around (till the 29th!), grab some demos and grab the goodies! Also click the link and show her facebook page some luvin' and keep yourself updated with new releases!

I'm already working on another post! I'll be back soon! Luff yew!

May The Sun Bring You New Energy By Day.. {Skin Fair 2015}

{Taken Here}

One of the challenges that was proposed to us in the SL Bloggers group during the Skin Fair Event, was to take on a skin from a creator that you weren't familiar with. This was actually hard for me to do for many reasons. So after like my sixth time back, a friend of mine pointed out this booth with Zoul skins and I tried on demo's and I loved them. My friends eye for skin was right!

I love the detail and the highlights on the skin. The eyebrows were another fav on these skins as well.  The body applier I was given was for the EVE mesh body, which I don't own and hadn't even heard of but I did find Omega appliers in the main store and so I used my skin on my Maitreya body instead, still gorgeous as ever and rather flawless! The tones are very rich in color, with two exclusives available, one being soft and the other being more on the dramatic side but both absolutely gorgeous! I made some gifs so you can see some flashy stuff and see the different shades of Zoul!

This one is called 'Gina' and was the one I liked first. It is softer, eyebrows and highlights as you can see...

The second one is called 'Della' and is the one that is a bit more dramatic. The eyebrows are more defined and I loved that!

So glad I decided to go ahead and give an unfamiliar skin a shot. If you are not familiar with Zoul,, now would be a great time to head over to Skin Fair and grab some demos and fall in love with it yourself! 

This is kind of like my 'coming out' party lol. I am forever worried about posting nude stuff and always find lil ways to hide it, editing or poses, etc but this time, with this picture...I felt it just needed to be. So, let me say sorry not sorry for the bewbs! I very much enjoyed being one with nature and connecting with my roots, even if it was in a game. Hell, I had the music going and everything, it was good!

Okay dolls, back soon with more stuff & thangs!

I've wanted to do a picture like this for awhile so I am glad the Plastik made the perfect creepy like skin to make this happen! 

Ugh, I simply can't say enough good things about the Plastik. Vae, owner of the shop, has always been super awesome when it comes to creativity and detail with her skins. There simply are none other like this at the Skin Fair so of course you know I am going to feature it! 

It comes in several different shades which I will show you below, and allll of the appliers, it also includes a slink nail applier for each shade of skin. Making your nails match right up with your skin tone easily. Eyes are available as well and don't forget to snag her gift that is there. Super awesome slink polish set. 

This skin is a MUST HAVE for my fellow goths, roleplayers, fantasy lovers, all around dark personalities! Go try the demos, you will not be disappointed! 

Although I had fun making my picture pretty, I don't mess with the skin itself in my pictures. I do fix the shape of my lips and nose if I HAVE to, because I hate when SL windlights make them look funky. That shouldn't be blamed on the skin creator. I used a high pass filter over this pic in order to let the veins in the skin be more visible, as the lighting I used kind of lightened it all up. 

However...the different shades featured below are unedited so if you wanna nitpick, have at it there! You will get what you see in any case! <3 

 

Okay, go play grabby and I will see you again soon!!
