“Crush on You” is such a delightfully sassy picture and outfit, I could not resist checking out the rest of EunWoo’s [Astrearosu] blog Nymphanium. It’s the sassy pose that really makes the look for me.

Katien Erin’s “The Glorious Diva” goes full Seventies in her post “70’s Vibes.” I love the glasses, the bold natural, the fabulous yellow top. It’s all brilliant.

SL Fashion Friday: Jacques Valentine’s Blog is a Stylish Treat

Cajsa Lilliehook covers the best in virtual world screenshot art and digital painting

I just discovered Jacques Valentine’s self-named blog and really love the fresh and avant-garde style that he creates. His pictures are great, too. Jacques approaches androgynous fashion in the best possible way, insisting that people can  wear anything and still be a “boys to the bone.” Lookbook #473. For example, the dress and the collar are not even by the same creator, but doesn’t look like it was made that way. 

• Dress: Spectacledchic - ophelia dress
• Collar: Insomniac Angel - Lolita detachable collar
• Hat: BOYS TO THE BONE - Punkare beret
• Socks: Versov - Comfov socks
• Shoes: Semller - Thumper boots 

The next outfit is great streetwear.

SL Fashion Blog Friday: Nadja Baxter Has the Stylish Shopping Tips You Need

Cajsa Lilliehook covers the best in virtual world screenshot art and digital painting

Nadja Baxter has been blogging since at least 2007; Old Guard, indeed. Her original blog was called GermanStyle but now she has an eponymous blog, Nadja Baxter. It’s important to know that her blog has more pictures than her Flickr stream and her photostream has pictures that never make it to the blog. There are a few candids, shots of friends, and microblogs on her stream. The blog posts have several photos the better demonstrate the outfits. You really need to follow both to see her prodigious output in Second Life. I like the outfit in this recent post.

SL Fashion Shopping Tips from a Style Blog With a Great Name

Antisocial Darwinism is the best name for a blog ever! “Confession 316: Can You Make Things Alright?” has a lovely photo. Imogen Atheria is very open about how tough November is for her as her father’s birthday approaches and how his death makes it an emotional time. Many people find these milestones hard to navigate. I also love her outfit.

Casual & Glamorous SL Fashion Shopping Tips from the Perfect Fashion Blog

Look Perfect Fashion is a blog by Carol Bebb that features fun fashions with decor. This pic above drew me in by finding an orange pickup truck. It’s post number 1898, so Carol has been busy. I like her outfit, but I really fell for the pickup truck.

Shopping Tips from an SL Fashion Blog -- And Blogging Tips from Me

Cajsa Lilliehook covers the best in virtual world screenshot art and digital painting

Live, Love, Laugh is MetteKenzo Nagy’s blog. She focuses on fashion and I was drawn to her work by her colorful, bright pictures. “Ooh Na-Na” really appealed because it was a successful example of turning a picture on its side. She didn’t do a full horizontal. Even though the diagonal is very acute, it still allows us to make sense of the picture without turning our laptop on the side. I have been baffled by these pictures for quite some time, but Gogo explained the rationale and now it makes sense. Many of today’s blogs have such big pictures they fill more than the screen, by going diagonal, they can get the whole picture in your window without scrolling. Now it seems obvious. I like the dress, though it’s only for the body made by the same creator.

Kirinyth has a self-named blog that combines visiting beautiful sims, fashion, and decor. “Riding a Sky Whale” is an outstanding blog post that thoughtfully asks us to look at the world anew. I love it when bloggers write more than credits, sharing more of themselves than an outfit.

Weekend Shopping Tips from Fun SL Blog, Just Be You

Cajsa Lilliehook covers the best in virtual world screenshot art and digital painting

“She’s the Most” is a recent post in the Just Be You blog from Romanthomas.I love how he gave it that retro look that totally suits the style. His blog is very visual with several photos including a hilarious 1950 calendar, just in case you didn’t catch his message. He also includes lyrics to a song that suits his theme and a YouTube video embedded. In an unusual but clever move, he adds vendor pics of the items he highlighted.
