"Snuggle Me On Coffins"

Hey luvs!
Hope I am all finding you all in great spirits! I made my way into Arcade, and though I didn't go nuts, I had fun! Lots of different things to snag so if you haven't been there, you should! Or check out the gacha sales to get the stuff you want. That's the way to go for me really. I applaud you all who go in there and just know you will win the rare! I have the worst luck with gachas, but I didn't do too bad this time.

I am trying to jump on my blog or Flickr more often but I am still luvin' all over RL and so getting here is a challenge but I promise to try....especially during the Halloween season which we ALL know is my fav!

Alright luvs, take care! See you all in two shakes of a lambs tail ♥

Hey dolls! 

I am playing super catch up again, as I have like a floooood of shit just piling up in my brain! Like I wanna take pics of this, and that, gotta blog this, etc. Meanwhile in RL, hectic! Tis' the season for it though. Oddly enough though, this weekend, it snowed, we were trapped in doors, and I had a bit of a break and was able to get in several blog pics.

I neeeeeded to blog this top because I loved it. I <3 me some Pac though. "Omg wut Gia is like all metal/gothy like though!" ......And?! Haha I grew up around soooo many genres of music and I am SO thankful for that! I grew up to know/love/appreciate the real rap artists of our time, and Tupac was one of them. Real messages, real experiences, real beats. Damn, I miss it!

Also, let me include that...several events have opened (of course!). One of them was Tres Chic. We had early blogger access  and the quick fingers in me bought a skin before the creator had actually finished set-up! Lol. I sent her a notecard thinking there was a mix-up and instead of being crabby about it, she was super awesome and just apologized and sent me the correct applier. I soooo love SL creators that are down to earth and ready to answer questions and help out when they can. It makes me want to be a devout customer. With the incredible quality of the skins, that won't be a problem!!

I wont keep you all though. I had to show this mash-up of super cuteness so you could join in on this odd collab of urban witchery haha <3

See you all soooo soon!

It's The Return of the Living Dead!

{Pictures taken at Haunted Silent Peacock Hotel}

 Hello again luvs! I know, I know...do feel free to punish me. I've been away for so long! RL can do that to us sometimes. It just gets super hectic and when all of it piles up, it's just easier to move a few things to the back burner, not forget them, just move them to the back for a lil bit until things get settled. I have been working a lot, and I mean that in SO many more ways than one. Working on me, working on my place, spending time with family, etc. etc. and it all has been rejuvenating for me! I really do feel like I've returned from the "dead". Head is fresh and overflowing with ideas and pictures I've wanted to take so, I am excited! Excited to play around in my Second Life once again while I have some time. 

Now, mind you...that is not to say that I will be back to a regularly scheduled blogging routine. I am simply saying I am enjoying my SL again so some blog posts will be flowing in here and there. Not without some changes though. I will probably cut down on the amount of pictures taken and also get used to some wall blogging to simplify things for myself. Hopefully it won't be too much of a change for you! Hopefully it's a good change <3
Moving on though!
If you've been a part of Gia's World, then you know this is my favorite time of year! Like so many of us Spooky-Boo's, I tend to shine a bit during Autumn. I live for all things spooky, creepy, all that good stuff! So I saw Dizzy, owner of DRBC, post an ad of this super adorbs dress that is all the sexy and spooky mixed into one! One of my favorite combinations. I had to doll it up and show you all. Have you been to visit Retro Rewind yet? I know it's hard to keep caught up with events. After my lil break, I was overwhelmed with trying to play catch up! I will do my best to keep you as updated as I can but one of my favorite places to keep an eye on new events/releases is the Essential Inventory facebook page. 
Make sure to make your way over to Retro Rewind and snag all the DRBC! 

Btw, the sim I was at for the pics was super cute! I think there is a hunt going on there and they do some rp'ing I think...well the skellie guy that was trying to talk to me seemed to be RP'ing lol. Here's some unedited pics I took of the place. There's so much more than this though and a nice maze with some hidden gems for you to run away from :D

I will be back around soon with some of my fav things, especially with all of these Halloween themed events coming up! 
See you again soon luvs!!

Hey guys and dolls! Hope you all enjoyed the weekend and are ready to kick off a new week. 

This blog post is pretty special to me, lemme tell you why. My love for DRBC is no secret to the residents of Gia's World. When I walked into the place upon my return to SL a few years ago, I fell in love with its originality and quality....and then I met the owner who is now someone close to my heart. So, am I bias? Hell yes. There, I admit it. It's official. Take a picture, make a stamp. Now, the owner (Dizzy) is learning to mesh! I, for one, am super excited about it because...I've seen such amazing things from her already and when the possibilities are limitless, I think we're going to be blown away. The first all original DRBC mesh release is out and though it is small, it is precious! All my witchy friends will agree that it is another gem that belongs on you at all times. It is customized for Slink, but as you can see, I am wearing it on Maitreya hands and it was a quick and easy adjustment. It also has a HUD so you can play with color options. Just a heads up, this ring will remain on me, you'll remember, 'ah yeah, that's why Gia wears that ring all the time..'!
My cuuuuute shoes are by none other than FK Designs who has actually dropped a few new releases! I am just forever trying to catch up with these people lol. But make sure you head over to the FK Designs official Facebook Page to keep updated on all the thangs! The clown shoes are a new FK release you will want too!

I found this gem of a sim on Explore Second Life. A lot of bloggers have been there, especially on this train track so...don't be surprised if you see a lot of us here lol. It's an all around gorgeous sim. Tons of little corners, cozy ones, to take pics in, hang out or snuggle, or hang out and snuggle!

Alright loves. Lots to catch up on. I will be around again soon, until then, go show my girl some love and snag the very first all original DRBC mesh ring in all of its witchy gorgeousness!

"A True Queen Does Not Need A King.."

{Taken at Tales of Ashenborne}

Vikings on  the History channel has started up again! I am such a fan! A friend introduced me to it last year and I plowed through the first few seasons I missed then was able to watch along with everyone else and...now it's back and I am so excited! They haven't failed me yet in acting, story line, eye candy lol. My favorite character is still Lagertha (when they pronounce her name, the R is pretty much silent). I love that she is not made to be the typical female running behind a man, waiting on a man, etc etc. I love that she reigns, I love that she is ruthless, I love that she looks so beautiful and sweet but if you know her, you know how deadly she can be when it comes to protecting her family, herself and her people. 

So when I thought of which direction I wanted to go with this picture, I thought of Lagertha and her brutal beauty. 

The picture was brutal on me too! I don't know why I never thought to take a picture vertically. This is what...my third year of blogging, (close to it anyway lol) and I never flipped my pictures?! This whole time?! Thankfully I have a wonderful friend who sent me in the right direction to accomplish that and a boyfriend who helped me nail it! 

My gorgeous Death Row Designs helmet needed to be featured in its entirety. Every way I was trying to take the picture, it seemed to chop part of it off....and I just couldn't have that! So...I don't know, what do you all do to get the pictures you want? Especially when it comes to this flipping the picture shenanigans! If there is easier tips or tricks, y'all better share! lol

Also, I am so thankful that Azuchi Designs followed me on Flickr when they did because I was just about to go on this total bitch fit about there being a lack of proper armor in Second Life lol. This armor is insanely gorgeous! It actually covers the bewbs! Shocking right?! Why is all female armor made to look so revealing? Some of us would like to imagine that our chest would actually be protected in battle you know!

Won't keep you forever. Arcade is right around the corner, we're about to get real busy and real broke haha. I'm so ready, teleport ready, full alpha ready!

Thanks so much to the people of Ashenborne who let me stand around their sim forever trying to get this picture in! To allll my roleplayers out there, I hope you take a moment to check it out. Looks like it would make for some great roleplay and it seems laid back enough at the same time there's some rules for great game play and smooth rp and leveling! Ladies, keep watch for sexy pirates! I saw a few prowling around!

Be back soon luvs! Enjoy your weekend <3

After The Fall

{Taken at The Wastelands}

Hey luvs! Told you I would be back soon! Not soon enough, I know. If it were up to me, I would be here daily....nah, not really. That lil break allows for some inspiration to build and that is always a good thing.
I had yet another chance to tap into some of that cyber-ish styling and you know whenever I can do it, I will jump on it!
It's not too often that we see hair creators in Second Life go above and beyond the norm. That is in NO way disrespecting a single one of them, No no no. I love my SL hair stylers! What they do is not easy, at least not to me lol. Just like with clothing though, you get styles that are often similar, gorgeous...but still similar to others. Occasionally though, there's that one...and you all know what I am talking about. That one that stands out. I love .Shi for that! It seems that recently more hair styles have been available from .Shi and I definitely will not complain about that! I hope we get to see a lot more! They're new, fresh, unique, cutting edge.
I love that you can use them, I can use them, he and she can use them! They work for every genre I can imagine and that kind of flexibility is  pretty awesome.
If you click on the .Shi link above, there are some pretty interesting factoids about the owner of the shop. I love getting to know the people in my SL like that. It's inspiring to read about a person who started out in SL and went on to bring creations into RL. I know of several.
Also a lil bit intimidating because her creations in RL and SL are ah-may-zin! So I will have to have my creative hat on to show you allll the things they way they need to be shown! I'm up for a bit of a challenge!
I was able to combine my badass hair style with a tattoo I fell in love with! I missed it last month during the Mens Only Monthly event. It's now out at the main store so check out 7 Prodigy for the rest of the goods!
Of course, I featured a closie of my nails too. I am pretty much always wearing Dark Passions on my nails. The only time I don't credit my nails in my blog posts is when you cant see them but in any case, just know I have Dark Passions on them anyway lol.
Okay luvs, I shall see you again really soon! I hope you've enjoyed the weekend, may all of our Mondays be short and sweet <3

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 at Dystopia}

YaaaaaaY It's the weekend my luvs! We can celebrate. For a minute anyway!

Sometimes in Second Life, I fan girl. I feel silly about it at times but it doesn't matter that this is a virtual world, talent is talent no matter where, when, how. I fan girl over styles, bloggers, SL Flickr Artists, SL Creators, SL Designers....I can't be the only one. I see others complain about it sometimes and even I, oddly enough, have been fangirled/fanboi'd before! Where they will come up to me at event or whatever and tell me they love my blog or Flickr pics and I will admit, it feels pretty awesome just to get a small pat on the back, a lil bit of acknowledgment when I am out and about. 

So, never be surprised if I run up to you and say hi. I am a blogger who still faithfully follows lots of blogs, I applaud and support them. I love running into SL designers and saying hi too and letting them know how much I love their creations. Sometimes they're cordial, sometimes they're not lol. If the latter occurs, I pretend it didn't and move on and remember not to talk to them again. Maybe they're a private person, maybe they had a bad day, maybe they were busy but in any case...I did my part.

So one of the SL designers I love to fan girl over, and WAS cordial with me when I ran into her at Shiny Shabby once, is Valentina. When I run into her creations in SL, it's pretty much guaranteed I am going to buy it lol. I can't help myself. I don't think there is no one general style to her and I kinda love that. I have mixed her outfits/dresses/etc. with many different things in many different styles of clothing. It's unique, it's detailed, it fits wonderfully, comes in many different colors, what else can you ask for? The outfit I am wearing here is just another one I marked down as one of my favorites and received so many compliments for! So I hope you'll all introduce yourselves to that shop, if by freak chance you haven't already. 

Actually...come to think of it...this entire post is full of my favs that I fan girl for. Glam Affair, Shi, Eudora, and Valentina <3

I will be back again soon my luffs! Have a great weekend!

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!

"She's A Myth That I Have to Believe In.."

{Taken at Ironwood Hills}

Places in Second Life have slowly started to become covered in all the fluffy white stuff...yes, I do mean snow. Right now, I appreciate it. I am from the northern part of the U.S. so I grew up around many feet of snow during the winter. Winter just isn't winter unless you have to navigate icy roads and can sit in the back yard building igloos. Well, we tried anyway. We never actually could get to the ceiling part of it, we'd just get some pretty high walls going before my siblings wanted to start an all out snowball war and then...the walls were no more. 

The sim owners in Second Life have such talent though. I don't know how they manage to pull an entire place together. The smallest details are always what get me. Ironwood Hills has been a favorite of mine, several of my blog pictures are linked back to it. Creepy and gorgeous with one of the best graveyards in Second Life. Make sure to pay it a visit.

Remarkable Oblivion has given us some more wings to play with. So many of us are still in the RO wings that were released awhile ago. Just like those, these are also gorgeous! With a darker vibe though, at least that's how I saw it. These are available at We <3 Roleplay, be sure not to miss them!

I will see you again soon luvs!  Much to show, so little time <3

November Harvest

{Taken at Elysion}

I so hate saying good-bye to October...but I know all good things must come to an end. And just to be a sarcastic ass, I always make sure to share the countdown till next Halloween, there's always a person out there that'll get butt hurt about it!
Even though we say goodbye to October, November and December still warm the heart...maybe not in the same way but that's just a cluster of months I am learning to really love. I know some of us get really down around December. It's a stressful time of year! The one thing I can do is make sure to not focus on me. Mind you, I am not saying that will be the solution to YOUR problems, I am simply saying that is how I am wired and how I work around the 'C' word blues *CoughCHRISTMASCough*. For example, I focus on how excited the kids in my life are about the holidays. They seem to share their excitement with me, if only for a moment.

This time of the year is always an amazing time to bring around those warm colors, knit sweaters and all the cozy things! I am looking forward to a lot of the events coming up because I know they will deliver just this!

Speaking of the 'warm colors, soft undertones, etc etc...I simply adore Glam Affair! It seriously doesn't matter if I am wearing a mesh head or my normal head, Glam Affair just makes all the adorbs happen. So I couldn't help but put together a picture that would not only highlight the skin but show how much it inspires me and reminds me of the beauty in this Autumn Harvest.

So What If It's Hot Out, I'll Still Be Wearing Black!

{Taken at Dead End City RP Sim}

Hello luvs, did you miss me?! I missed blogging but the break was severely needed. It's just something that happens. Not only to bloggers but everyone in SL. Real life steps in and is over demanding. There is really nothing you can do about it. I am not going to go into my innermost personal issues with you but I will say that it's not only RL work that is exhausting me, just a lot of alllll the thangs! I wish I could continue functioning without any of it getting in the way but that's just not how I am wired. So there is your answer as to why I haven't blogged every day. Plus, blogging for me has always simply been my creative outlet. A way for me to show off some of my favorite fashion designers and all my other fav things in SL. It was never about anything else. So when it became too demanding, I had to reassess it all. I love my sponsors btw. They have always been some of the most supportive and understanding people on the grid. I'd rather be without a sponsor than have anyone think I am just getting everything for free. I am certainly not. Hopefully I will be able to get in more blogging time now though. So anyway, onto other things!

Summer is here and holy hellballs it has been HOT! I live in one of the colder states in the US and even here we're in the 80's. Now for some of you I am sure that is ideal but for those of us thick blooded people who can't stand the heat...this is hellish. Plus humidity, eww!

Still, there isn't a day that goes by that I am not wearing my black clothes. The only other color I have is a dark purple haha. So many people will come and tell me they don't know how I can wear black in this weather but...how could I not? It's my favorite color to wear and anyway...I don't feel much of a difference wearing anything else. Maybe that's just me. 

This fashion I am so enjoying in SL has made it's way into my RL. I have done my fair share of leg work looking for places online or in my surrounding area that sell clothing similar to this and I am starting to completely overhaul my wardrobe. That's been long overdue anyway!

Needless to say, when DRBC dropped this one, I was on it! This is NOT the only print that this awesome cardi comes in either! Make sure to head over to the DRBC Facebook Page, click LIKE and make sure to check out the other kickass prints this Cardi comes in. I honestly had a hard time picking which I wanted to blog. Hell you may see the others here too haha. Anyway, enough of me being chatty Gia! I will hopefully see you all again in a bit here! *le MUAHs!*

"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!

Welcome to Retroville...{DRBC Double Banger Special!}

{Taken at Retroville}

Well hello there!

It's been awhile since I've had fun with a DRBC Double Banger so I thought I would do so just now!

I've linked the facebook page above and if you haven't followed it already, make sure to do so because you will most definitely want to keep up with the awesomeness she is constantly dropping. Seriously, I can't keep up, but that's a good thing!

DRBC recently opened a lil chain location at Retroville, which is linked under my pictures. 

What is Retroville? Do you remember Hard Alley? "Before it was Hard Alley, SL's FIRST dirty urban RP sex sim, it was Retroville, a gleaming city of hope and dreams!  But behind closed doors, a darkness is growing." So that is what is quoted from their sim description.

I was super impressed with the layout and design of the sim. So many different people have participated in it so I won't even attempt to name them all but I do know that besides Hard Rust and Spirit, my girl Jaimy (owner of Death Row Designs) and her partner in crime Tito are a big part of it as well.  And like I said, many others!

So, do feel free to head over and pay Retroville a visit. Especially my followers that are roleplayers. The place has awesome potential for roleplay and I can't wait to see it in action and maybe get in on it (if I can get some free time that is!!). Oh and if you go, take pics because I want to see. Mind you, I meant get in on roleplay, get your minds out of the gutter! Only my mind is allowed to live there.

Okay enough chatter box Gia for now. Go shop all things DRBC cuz the cuteness! Landmark Retroville and have a blast taking it back to the 50's, one of Gia's favorite era's!!

Glamour, Every Day...Every Minute.

Voules vou? Do you want to...what? Finish the sentence! The Burlesque event opened with lots of pretty stuffs and corsets galore! Seriously I couldn't begin to tell you my favs, there were so many. This was also the place to snag the cute & sexay stockings for your bodies ladies! Canibelle is there with a super sexy garter stocking set that I adored.

Death Row Designs is there as well but of course, leave it to the DRD gang to come up with a lil replica of Moulin Rouge! I was just smitten with it. Front to back it is quite an eye full. VIP seating, floor seating, loaded bar, stage, hidden room (In  the windmill!!) Short story. I knew there was a hidden room, I don't know why I didn't know where the hidden room was. I did look in the building but for some reason didn't see it in the windmill. I'm glad the creators were offline and I didn't have a chance to bug them about it because when I did find the hidden room with the vanity and the cute bed and everything in it, I did indeed slap my own forehead.
This is a set that I hope many had a chance to snag. Business owners, club owners, and land owners alike it's a place you will want around for private gatherings or social gatherings. It's just that gorgeous! The entrance was amazing too!

With lots of animations and a great environment, it has great RP potential too. So like I said, just everyone go grab it all.

The loverly manicure in my pic is by none other than Dark Passions of course! Make sure to keep your eye on that one. If you like getting your nails done in SL as much as I do, that'll definitely be one of your favs! Especially if there's a place in your heart for the darker side of things and well, we all know the darker side of things is much loved in Gia's World!

Okay cant stay long but hopefully be back soon! Be patient with me...love you all long time but RL issues keep me from sitting long. Back pain is a bitch. <3
