Witchy Woman

{Taken at Mercy Falls}

Hey luvs! I hope I am finding you all in good spirits <3

Real life still has me super busy right now but my blog is always on my mind. I can be at work, thankfully we're allowed to use Ipods, so I will have my music on and it brings to mind so many pics I would love to take for the blog or even just for Flickr. So you're all never far from my thoughts, just so you know! 

As all residents of Gia's World know, I can never get enough of DRBC! This little outfit was released for Erotigacha. I was away during that time so I didn't have a chance to show it off but it couldn't sit there without recognition in Gia's World! I know a lot of you would love it as much as I did. There are several different print options available that you will definitely want!
Whenever I can flaunt my 'Witchy' wardrobe in SL or in RL, I am all for it and this is surely one you will want in your collection too.
I can't keep you all long today. Actually, I've already edited another picture and have another outfit on....I'm getting backed up here lol. So I will be back soon. The weekend is right around the corner! *Cheers!*

{Taken Outside of the Hard Alley Club}

Hey guys and dolls! 

I hope I am finding you all in good spirits. The weekend approaches soon. I should be happy about it but I can't be lol. I've had the week off, (not by choice!) and will be returning to work Monday. The days off have been nice though and much needed in so many ways. I've been sick and simply needed the rest so I am thankful to have had these few days to spend at home. It also gave me a few more chances to pop in SL and enjoy all the shopping, events, and visits with the people I adore. 

Speaking of people I adore, DRBC recently released this adorbs dress that I knew a lot of my readers would just fall in love with! This is one of my favorite prints but she made a plethora of them, so you have a ton of options, polka dots galore and a Hello Sailor! one that is to die for! Make sure you follow DRBC (as linked above) on Facebook for updates on recent releases.

I couldn't help but take advantage of someones ride parked outside of the new Hard Alley Club! That's right, Hard Alleys Retroville has moved sims! So make sure to pop over and visit. The club is active with some pretty awesome DJ's! The music ranges from punk to rock to...just everything! The company is great and  oh yeah....I hang out there so that's a bonus right?! Come over and get down with us sometime!
Be back in two shakes of a lambs tail <3

Ongoing theme of all things witchy but this time I get to play with one of my favs! Of course DRBC!

The hat was made by a good friend of mine. I look forward to so many more creations by Gidget (owner of Gidgi Doll).
The sim is a new one to me and I loved it! So many spots for gorgeous pictures so make sure to pay it a visit!

Do You Voodoo Too?

I think by now, everyone knows that I almost exclusively get my nails did at Dark Passions. There's a reason that I give that place so much love and devotion though. Seriously, if you're not familiar with the shop, you're missing out! Originality a lil bit o' gore, horror, goth, nu goth, pastel goth, Victorian goth and if you look close enough, you might find some cutesy designed nails there. Both Maitreya and Slink friendly (With special requests for Belleza), it's definitely a shop I adore.
I know a lot of people are like, one color and go when it comes to nail polish. I'm a bit pickier myself. But, there are days when I don't want to mess around too much and I have a favorite 'go to' polish and that's the  Dark Passions - Koffin Nails: Roaring 20s & Dirty 30s OR DP - Koffin Nails - French Manicure - Black Tips. I love them both and they go with alll the things!
So I did a special lil nail blog post with a closie of some badassery nails that Dark Passions released for Horror Haute. C'mon now, how often are you going to be able to say you wore voodoo pins in your nails? Nevar! The prices are always shockingly low so, do take advantage! These lil ebil cuties are only 50L at Horror Haute so go take a look and lemme see the voodoo that you do!

"I'm Taking Control, I'll Assimilate Your Soul, I Will Rule Your Mind..."

I am sure you have all heard me many times go on my lil rants about how Goth in SL needs to 'evolve'...by saying that, I am usually talking about the flexi that has stayed in a lot of the clothes, system clothes (although when done right with appliers can be great!).
Also thinking outside of the box. In EVERY genre, not only Goth...the best thing we can do is put things together because WE like it. Because it feels and looks great to YOU. Regardless if some asshole is sitting there telling you how crappy it looks, how they don't like it, how they would never wear it, how it looks ridiculous, etc etc. That is THEIR point of view and not yours. You will find that they often wear things that you just shake your head at and wonder what the hell they were thinking when they put that together. It's all about perspective and everyone has a different one. What I wish is that more people were aware at just how rude they are when voicing theirs. Not everyone has to agree with your perspective, and you cannot force them to. What you will end up doing, if that person is like me, is pushing them away. So...careful of your words. Honest opinions are always a good things but never force your personal style/views etc. on anyone.
One of my recent obsessions has been a newer blogger named Judas. Of course he's sexy, Do I have to point that out? That's obvious but far beyond that is his sense of style. Quite honestly, it's like one I have not seen before. It's edgy, it's goth and sometimes not, it's Androgynous and sometimes not, it's unique, it's incredibly sexy....quite simply put, I can't think of a better person who's claws I'd rather have on my bewbage than his! He's not afraid to wear guyliner, nail polish and heels...I just adore it! So, love all over his blog, as it is male AND female friendly!  <3 your Judas! You can put your claws on me any day! Check out his blog, bookmark it and luff the fluff out of it!

Lemme Show You How I 'Goth' {World Goth Fair 2015}

{Taken at Xin}

We are like what...2 days into World Goth Fair! Have you invaded it yet?! Hells, I was allll over it days before it opened, but special blogger stuffs and all, we're allowed to so there! So I was able to see a lot of the awesomeness though a lot of the shops weren't set up yet so I will have to swing by again later!

As I have mentioned before, RL has been super hectic for me so this was my first year in a few years that I decided to not be an official blogger for World Goth Fair. I didn't want to make any promises I couldn't keep. However, I figured I would blog what I could on my own dime and on my own time. I snagged several goodies.

So just to go over a few things. In previous years, World Goth Fair was a charity event for the Sophie Landcaster Foundation but due to complications that were outlined in the World Goth Fair blog post, it is no longer so. I know this saddened a few of us but I trust that Axi and Lokii know what is best for the event and for the Goth community in SL.

The month of May holds a grand day for us 'Goths'. World Goth Day is May 22nd. This is a day we let our freak flags fly a little higher than usual. A little prouder, a little more prominent. Enough to let the rest of the world know we're here, we're strange, we're dark, we're okay with it. Amongst all of it...don't forget we also love passionately and have feelings like all the rest.

I've went on many a rant about my views on goths and some of those in the scene feeling rather 'gothier than thou' so, I will spare you all. Just keep in mind that, like it was said in a picture I saw on Facebook, "Goth should be liberating, not confining". Are you Victorian Goth? Nu Goth? Bubble Goth? Industrial Goth? ....Whatever you are, I love all of your Gothiness, and that's simply how it should be! <3

I have a map for you to check out and make use of! But also keep updated on upcoming events on the WGF blog!

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!

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!

Oh So Glam {Skin Fair 2015}

Hey dolls!

Has everyone rampaged into the Skin Fair?! One of the most anticipated events evar!
I was able to take a peek around the two sims and snag a couple favs. So I get to focus on that for a few days. Hoping to keep it all skin and very little clothing lol. It should be fun. It's not something I am really used to so, here we go!
The first one I am show casing isn't a skin place a blog for, just one I loved and given, just a tad bias since Glam Affair is so Maitreya friendly and we all know Gia loves the Maitreya body so much!
There are several options for this skin but I loved the smokey look around the eyes of course. It's always been one of my favorite looks in RL and SL!
If you don't have the Maitreya body (for some odd reason!), Glam Affair skins are all included in the Maitreya body hud so, if you own Glam Affair skins, all you have to do is match up your body color with the skin you're wearing!
In typical Glam Affair fashion, the new skin is super soft and gorgeous. The eyebrows seemed a bit more defined to me and I loved that! But maybe that was just me lol.
Okay so on to the next one but this is definitely a stop you should make! Demo and then buy!

Keep in mind that a script limit will be enforced for the first week of the event to try and keep the lag down. Wear your system clothes and remove any unnecessary HUDS, keep all attached pets and babies at home with sitters, etc. No need to attach the entourage while you're demo'ing skins believe me! Let's keep it nice and clean and get in and out with alll the goodies!
Also, Skin Fair isn't only skins so, get them lindens ready to flail. I saw some ah-may-zin tattoos, make-up and other neatness there so, take your time and browse!
Back soon with some more favs and a NEW fav that I've never tried before, tats and more! :D

"I'd Rather Have Flowers In My Hair Than Diamonds Around My Neck.."

{Taken at Frisland}

Hey guys and dolls! I thought I would go to another part of Gia's World this week. It's not a part of me that is seen too often but it is a part of me that is there nonetheless. 

I always hope that my readers, my friends, everyone...understand why I named my blog 'Gia's World'. Not to be a narcissist haha. No, I named it that because there are SO many different sides of me. I can't just claim to blog one style of clothing when I love so many different styles. From Goth to Rockabilly, Fantasy, Fancy, Chic, Casual, and oh so many in between, it's all found in Gia's World. They're all different parts that make up me...Gia <3

So Sn@tch hasn't made an appearance here in awhile. Blame Ivey, hurry, everyone go prod her for not making these sooner lol. So she makes these gorgeous lil hip hugging pants and they just so happen to have the name 'Gia' in it (cuzshelovesmelongtimemhmm) and so I HAD to have them in Gia's World! They come in several different colors, have a nice rounded tush (no odd flat butt), and fit the Maitreya mesh body really well, which is what I have on in the pic and rarely take off. 

Mind you, this is Ivey's previous release....because this woman already released more Sn@tch goodies! Seriously, she is so very hard to keep up with. The awesomeness just keeps coming, we Sn@tchettes don't complain though! Follow Sn@tch on Facebook or on the Sn@tch Blog to keep updated on all things Sn@tchable!

Alright, alright...I am working on another post already. Sorry I am so super picky about my pics so it takes me way longer than what it should but I'm on it! Promise <3 See you shortly!

It's seriously attack of the RO Wings lol. They're gorgeous though! You can't really help but love them and want to wear them in all different ways. I saw tons of lovely Victoria Secret-ish and happy lovey dovey posts so I am glad that side of the wings were covered. I figured I would go in the opposite direction.
Isn' that Gia's favorite direction to go during this sappy ass time of year too?! All I am excited about for February is the return of The Walking Dead. Yaaaaaay! Everyone can keep their chocolates and whatnot and I will be happy over here in my corner with the zombies...and Daryl Dixon!

These wings come in various colors. White, Black (as pictured), red, pink, purple and a almost prismatic color. All absolutely gorgeous and with a Fatpack available, that is the route you'll want to go. I am always too selfish to pick one color only.

With RL things calming down a bit this week, I am hoping to jump back into my regular schedule and hopefully play around with the wings some more. So I hope you never tire of seeing alllll the wing pics <3

Back all too soon loves!!

World So Cold

{This Photo Taken Here}

One of the lil quirks I have with Second Life photos, especially during these winter months is that it seems like...nobody cares that their avatar is standing out in the middle of winter...in lingerie (for example!). I personally like to layout a storyline for my photos...and I know, that's just MY personal preference and not everyone has to do that. That's just fine. But if you're standing in the snow butt ass nekkid, I would like to know why. So I sat on this photo for a minute for that exact issue. I had to ask myself if I would take a stroll if the winter chill would nip at my bare shoulders and legs...depending on the situation...yes. Have you ever been so angry that you don't feel the weather? The sting of the winter wind on your face is nothing in comparison to the feeling that is completely engulfing you. 

I loved this dress by Skindustrial Bodyworks. It is available in several colors just in time for dances, parties, gatherings, date nights around this holiday season so make sure to grab them all!

Be back in a bit luvs!

The Ghost of Christmas Past

My dearest apologies for not getting this blog out like daaaaays ago but you see I have a good reason, which will be located on the bottom of this post.
After a lil talk with my friend Anika, I decided that this house was far too great to just feature a few pictures of it here and there, I wanted to do something different.
This house and all of the awesome little knick-knacks in it are by Death Row Designs and are available at the Arcade this December round. Oh ho ho so many things at the Arcade that just made me want to slap the designers lovingly with my lindens. Lol. But this is definitely one of the gacha machines you're not going to want to miss.
With the attention to detail and the nice warmth the little quirky house gives, it's simply a must have for this time of year and one you'll want to put out every Christmas! My favorite part of the house was of course dear old Ebenezer's bedroom. You can just tell how much work was put into all of this. Death Row Designs is a team now and I think they do a damn great job together! They always leave me eagerly anticipating their next project.
So this was my first time in a loooong time playing with video, and then on top of that I decided to get a new program so you might be seeing more videos from me (maybe, no promises! Time permitting!! Gia is a busy busy lady). So be nice as far as judging lol and enjoy my little walk through of Ebenezer's house and I hope it entices you to go snag it and enjoy its warmth this holiday season...before the Ghost of Christmas Past comes to haunt you! Also, don't forget to grab the awesome lil snow man that is a free gift from DRD at the Arcade featured in the beginning of the video with and without sound effects. <3

Back soon my loves!

Ain't No Party Like A BookWorm Party!

{These Photos Taken At Frisland}

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!

Just Got Wicked

This round of We <3 RP is open and I think (personally of course) Arcadia steals the round! There were many things that caught my eye and I snagged a good few (including the bracers I am wearing! Go go Random Matter with your bad self!) So many different storylines that came at me with this dress. I thought of an assassin type photo and then I wanted a demonic photo and then I decided to dig back in my roots and lift my hands to the moon! But I had to show you some more awesomeness from Twisted Hunt Fall. The bottom photo pose and demonic conjuring circle are separate prizes that work together. You'll want to snag them both!
Although this dress comes in a variety of colors, this so happened to be my favorite. The hood conceals part of your face and makes for a very ominous looking character. Don't miss this one at We <3 RP!!
See you shortly my luff n stuffs!!

Another Time, Another Place

{These photos taken at DryLand}

Long overdue blog post! And I've just been in this outfit for days and loving it and enjoying all the compliments! I'm surrounded by a loving bunch <3
I've always loved the post apocalyptic movies. Mad Max, Doomsday, etc. So, although I thought of going for the more Domme look, I opted for the post-apoc biker chick. It's something about those films that makes you wonder what you would do in a post-apoc world. We can all make guesses and try to be badasses but I suppose we'll have to wait our turn!
These pants are a recent FK! Designs release and they are amongst my fav. Say it with me kids, it's something I say often..Mesh is only mesh until a designer breathes life into it! And Frost Kit, owner of FK! Designs did just that. The pants are sexy with so much badassery to pull off my lil other-worldly look. My Harness is recently dropped by DRBC and with a promo price on the MP for only 100L! It's a must have.
Get to shoppin' and I will be back around soon with more snag worthy thangs <3

Graveyard Queen

 {Above photo taken at Pulse}

Dead Apples is participating in this round of We <3 Roleplay and I am loving all over this vampiric skin! Pale and delicate, deadly and gorgeous!  With bloody mouth and non bloody options as well.  All kinds of appliers are available for it and with that being said, it tempted me to play a bit more with my Wowmeh (doesn't that sound dirteh?! lol).
So I found that I love the Wowmeh and hope it comes out better and stronger than before. With so many mesh shapes out there for us, it can be a tough decision, and when that happens ladies...just go ahead and buy them all I say! While usually rounding edges of my SL shape for photos, the wowmeh made it easy on me and so I stayed looking at the pics, trying to find all jagged edges and though I found a couple, it was waaaay less work than on the standard SL body.
The lingerie I have on was a freebie from Dead Dollz, well group gift. The cost to join the group isn't bad at all so great deal there! Especially since it has the Slink/Wowmeh/etc. applier HUD included. Thank you Kiddo for the spoils!
Also my heeeels! If you don't know what the Saturday Sale is, you're missing out! Reign always spoils us on Saturdays with amazing deals on awesome heels and so many other designers participate in the Saturday Sale. Definitely make yourself a part of it. These are deals that us oldies weren't given back in the day so yus, I enjoy them much!

Ok enough ramblings from Gia, get to shoppin' luvs! <3
