Here Comes the Rain Again

{Taken at Kekeland}

Time to start busting out the sweaters, hoodies, boots and jackets kids...winter is right around the corner!
We have these odd days where I live where the weather is so ass backwards. I'm looking out the window right now and it looks gorgeous outside! The sun is shining SO bright but at the same time, my feet are freezing and I know damn well if I went outside, it would be cold. We have days where the sun is shining bright and it's raining outside and all I can do is shake my head at mother nature and be like, "I know how you feel gurrrl."
That's how the entire month of November is for me, but I wouldn't have it any other way. Typically, in my part of the world, we're covered in snow. So I will take some rainy/cold days and hopefully the snow will hold out till December. A white Christmas is always welcome =)
I mashed up a nice little outfit that I kinda love! Nice warm colors for the season and a messy hair does the trick. Not to mention the pose which was perfect. The news lately hasn't made me want to look at it too much so why not use it for a bit of shelter?!
Good luck on keeping up with alllll the current events and allll the upcoming events lol but head over to Sad November and snag these cutsies before they're gone <3

See you again soon guys & dolls!

Return of the Pumpkin Queen

Hey loves! I took this pic a few weeks back, before my tablet started going a bit insane. Just a quick pic to bring my Pumpkin Queen back this year. She was featured in the blog before and I love her. I kind of have certain characters that pop up in the blog. Maybe my SL has D.I.D lol. Ms. Zombcakes like to come out and play during this time of year too. If you know Gia's World, then you know just who I am talking about!

Keeping things nice and short, super simple. Halloween is right around the corner and I am SUPER excited! I got my costume ready to go, candy, hells I even have goodies for co-workers! That's how you know Gia is in good spirits!
In case I am not back before then, I <3 you all and hope you have a very spooky Halloween!

Soooo many events, so little time! One of the events that recently opened is the Mesh Body Addicts Fair which runs from August 1st-21st. I think a lot of us are just that, mesh body addicts. If you love your mesh bodies, don't miss out!

My favorite lil nail designer ever is there of course! Dark Passions never fails in creating some of the most interesting, unique and gorgeous nail designs on the grid. I love dressing myself up from head to toe so, it's a big deal for me to be so precise. One of the exclusives for the event is the butterfly design featured above. How funny that this lil nail design inspired the ENTIRE picture! 

None better to feature with this than Petite Mort. This adorbs lil jumper is the exclusive at The Aloha Fair right now. This event runs until August 10th, you have a few days left to go check it out. This was easy to wear with my Maitreya which is a must! haha I can't abandon my Maitreya evar. 

Work week is already here again but looking forward to getting in some more posts soon!

Until then, go play grabby hands and have an excellent week! *smoooochers!*

{Taken Here}

Hello again! A week flies by in a blink of an eye, I swear it. I hope yours went great though! Mine was filled with lots of work but I cannot complain. 

I have thoroughly enjoyed this style as of recent. For the longest time, in my minds eye when someone would say 'Goth', I guess I only really embraced a more sort of Victorian styled Goth but this 'Nu Goth' fashion, as they call it, I love love. I think it goes back to a more 80's goth, can tap into some Stevie Nicks-witchery even and all of that makes me happy! I'm still exploring it, embracing it, and making it my own. 

There's so much of it in Second Life right now as the trend grows and grows but, as always, I am picky. That's why I love this outfit so much. By far onr of my favorites as far as style and the detail on what I am wearing is just always so awesome because of course, it's DRBC!

This cute lil dress is already on the Marketplace. At 125L it is just a steal. Originally a strappy dress cute for the summer but I topped it with another DRBC fav of mine, the Open Leatherette and whipped it all up with these so so cuuuute shoes! These are ones you have to have! Hudded, all kinds of colors and the bottoms of the shoes are just awesome too!

I wont be a chatterbox, as I am going to try and get stuff done for more posts so...grabby hands on all the thangs! 

Have a great weekend and hopefully, I will see all of you soon...until then <3 *Black Kisses*

 {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!

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!

{These Photos Taken At Hangars Liquides}

Neeeeedless to say, I just had a ball playing with these pics! I've been experimenting more in photoshop with lighting and blur of course and doing a Fifth Element action shot was the perfect project for the job! 

DRBC dropped a loverly little dress for the anniversary round of Suicide Dollz! Happy Anniversary Suicide Dollz! With over 60 designers participating, this is a round you most definitely do not want to miss! Well, don't miss any round but if you miss this one it's a high five to the forehead for you! Lol

So, it's been my goal since the beginning of the creation of Gia's World to show you things that I simply adore, admire, look forward to, etc., in Second Life. Main one of course is the many designers who I fan girl over because of their talent. Of course, without saying much, you all know one of the designers who I love long time but there's a reason of course! And I really hope you can see that here. The reason I chose to blog the plan white Leeloo dress (Although there is another dress available with a color HUD!), is because of the texture. Although I had fun in photoshop with my pictures, I really wanted to show the texture of my dress in my bottom portrait. I didn't photoshop the dress AT ALL in the bottom pic. Played with my skin, hair, lighting but not the dress.  While in SL I have seen so much mesh clothes that is supposed to be white but it looks like it had paint dumped on it rather than any texture at all...but if I've done my job right, you can see clearly that this dress has an insanely great texture to it! I just have to applaud her on a job well done as there aren't too many that do white on mesh like so. 

With that being said, keep your eyes locked on DRBC as I know this month is a busy one and the releases are a comin'! Gothmas by Gaslight and Horror Festive are right around the corner. Click on the DRBC Facebook link above to keep updated on all things DRBC and to see what she has lined up for upcoming events.

Busy busy days in Gia's World! Eyes here ladies and Gents! <3

The Geeks n' Nerds Event has come around again. This is my second year participating in it...and my second year not feeling like a geek or a nerd according to their items lol. Don't get me wrong, I say nothing bad about them because I love designers. They put a lot of work into what they do...I'm just saying I guess my definition of a geek or a nerd is kind of off. 

I got called a 'nerd' a lot because I usually carried around random books (I still do). Books to read randomly, poetry, old favs, classic American literature, classic horror of course, biographies,...and then there's that side of me that is allll about Middle Earth. When people see me carrying around my Lord of the Ring books or The Hobbit, I get "the look". That's a look I don't mind though. Yes I do in fact indulge in a book or two. Yes I have in fact shut out the world and read a book in a day and yes I have cried over a book, got mad over an ending and rage quit reading several books when they got stupid. *coughFIFTYSHADEScough*

I also get the look when I mention that I am a gamer. For some reason, all these years later...girls are still looked at oddly when we mention gaming or our love for it. I don't get it. I've been a gamer since I fell in love with Atari when I was a lil girl. It was console first and now PC is my luff n stuff and I could never go back to console (shh console lovers, just take it). My love for PC gaming has out lasted several relationships so you can't pin it on that horrible misconception people have 'Oh she games for her boyfriend", no no no...they can't keep up with me! 

I made sure to represent not only my love for reading but my PC love too! Though not in typical Gia fashion, I was willing to take on the challenge of rocking these shoes out because Lindsey Warwick is that damn badass. Her high quality textures never cease to amaze so, no...the shoe is not something I would typically wear but you cannot deny talent and she has it. Although the nerd in me does love the lil control command on the shoe lol.  And as you can see, when you want to, you can rock anything out!

Oh man...tissues for Gia, as I will sob like a babe for this last part of The Hobbit series, The Battle of the Five Armies. Billy, why you gotta touch my feeeeels?!

2181 Days...

{These Photos Taken At The Wastelands}

Our world is a vicious one and the fight is endless...and even when you think you've made it, you can finally relax, take that little breath and kick your feet up, there's always someone else there to knock you back on your ass. Welcome to reality. 

There is something to be thankful for though...and I really had to search for this one so, feel special. I think we've all read that Facebook picture that rolls across our feed several hundred times a day that says "Be Kind, For Everyone You Meet Is Fighting A Hard Battle", but look into it, think about it. It holds so much truth. Nobody knows what you or I are going through. I know, I can at least be thankful I've made it this far...since in this past year I've seen people who I thought to be far greater than I crumble under a battle I fight every single day. So hold your heads high, fight the battle, but be considerate. Be Thankful for what you have and for what you don't have...tomorrow is never promised. 

What is promised is that DRBC keeps me insanely busy! I'm like YEAH I can finally blog this! And here comes another release! Not complaining though! If I am busy so are you! All my sponsors keep me busy! The trench badassery I have on has literally DAYS left before it is out of Suicide Dollz so grab it before it's gone foreverrrr!!! (or until she puts it on the marketplace lol) And then keep your eyes locked on the next round of Suicide Dollz because it's a stunner! I'll try my damnedest to get right on it! 

Also, take your butts to Genre if you haven't been there already. I've already blogged a few things from there in my last post and my wonderful peg leg by DRD is there as well and it is a MUST HAVE! 

2nd pose from the top, welcome to a pose shop that Gia fan girls over! Yes I fan girl over poses. It's no secret that I simply adore my pose makers and even more so when they include poses in their props because for bloggers like me, it can take me forever to get pics done but their props help so much to create the mood and offer so many ideas. This pose is by The Pose Shop owned by Piper Patrucci who, thus far has been a peach and a half when it comes to customer service and random chat. From snuggly poses to sexy poses, standing poses, relaxed and kicked back on a chair poses, skater girl poses, cutesy Christmas time poses...you're bound to find something you'll like. Expect to see this pose shop lots in Gia's World!

Okay okay, enough babbling, I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving if you celebrated <3

See you all again really soon! *le smooch*

We All Float Down Here

Oh...are we supposed to be decking the halls already? Not in Gia's World kiddies! It might forever look like Halloween because that's what makes Gia happy in Gia's World!
Cirque de Seraphim started several days ago and I made sure to pop in and snag a few goodies. Surprisingly what I had the most fun with was poses but you know me, I love my poses. But there's a ton of stuff from clothing to decor, poses, shoes, accessories and everything else in between.
Some of my favs are there and I had to show off their goodies!
Now, if you've been a resident in Gia's World for awhile, you know Dark Passions is always included or around somewhere but usually on my nails, did you know she occasionally plays with clothes too?! She does! She made a cute lil ringmaster outfit I had to play around in for awhile.

I do have a confession, my confession is this...when it comes to carnie/cirque/freak show I am bias and I love taking photos based on those themes! So yes, I may flood you a bit in pics this time but go ahead and admit it, you enjoy it! <3

Okay okay...back soon with more my luffs! Go to Cirque de Seraphim and grab some stuff!

A Metal Influence

So by now I am sure everyone has been alll over Rhapsody! Sooo much amazing things! Seriously, I was quite taken back by it all. I'm like 'Okay I love this, no wait I love this too! And this one there and that there!' etc. And while I've heard of Pixicat before...this dress so won me. I love it in so many ways! I had the option to wear plain colors or change the color of the background of my ribcage/veiny design, but this mix is what I loved best. Also the option to remove spikes but...pfft, who would do that?! Spikes and more spikes I say! And I did just that. Pairing it with a set of earrings I love and another Rhapsody goodie, a collar from CerberusXing, AND my L.W. Spiked heels...this seriously has to be one of my favorite outfits.
Everything around me is at Rhapsody too. But you know me, I can't simply place things...life can be full of disarray and so it will be portrayed as such! I love love the furniture options available at Rhapsody! If you're looking to revamp your place, or simply purchase some awesome additions, you don't want to pass up these ones! And the studded skull art, which is available in many color options, is a must have!
The Skinnery is also participating in the event with this awesome skin I am in. Super cute with available eyebrows that I was unsure of at first, then loved!
Milk Hair also surprised me with what seems to be some tweaked textures. Gorgeous style too!
Okay okay, I will be back soon! So much more to show! <3 Oh and, here's a map to help you navigate your way around to snag all the goodies.
Btw...I am an all out Metal Head \m/\m/. Although eclectic, my heart will always be made of Metal!
