It’s PUMPKIN TIME! RL Gidge is off to the mountains to procure some orange round goodness and I thought pixel Gidge shouldn’t miss out too! So I’m on location that THE GREAT PUMPKIN PATCH!

I apologize if the image sizes are wacky – I’m having a fight with FLICKR right now and photobucket isn’t obeying me.

I’m wearing the gorgeous and luminous AIMESI skin – AMELY – in Caramel. I chose some great casual wear from Magi Take, which fits EVERYONE’S budget!

Second Style invites you along this Friday for a peek at our Halloween party…

This week’s feature is the Halloween Party spread by Darkley Aeon.  She invites you in for a look at what everyone will be wearing out and about next week.  Get some great ideas on what you might find for your Halloween!

Have a look at the Second Style Halloween Party yourself!

The latest release from Sascha Frangilli will have you saying BOO as you crack the carriage length whip at everyone who dares make eye contact with you.

I mean seriously – this is some killer leather, don’t you think?

As with all good things froms Sascha’s Designs she likes to give you great options – such as long pants for a completely different yet no less hawt leather look.

There are so many different combinations of BOO that you can put together, I’d be hard pressed to show you all of them. I like the train with the short skirt though – very smexy.

The stockings come WITH – yay for including the details right? Are my seams straight?

I’m wearing Frick’s beautiful Pinup Brigitte skin in peach, and new Glow Eyes from PXL Creations – in FATE.

It’s no secret that I’ve been out of world and seriously sick for a few weeks. But I was so excited, the last time I logged in, to be teleported to the opening party of Faery Sola’s Moonbeam- next to Oubliette.  I immediately had the perfect dress for such and occasion - Chantal by Rebel Hope.

Rich in jewel tones, I had to have the green version of this dress. I think one of my favorite features is the leg slit – pefect for legs that go all the way up don’t you think?
I chose to go brunette that evening, and Diversity Hair’s Coquette up-do was a great elegant choice for this elegant gown.

The skin is Laqroki – Tasha #10 Potrait skin in Fair.

1. Shape – Gidge custom shape by Hatchy Mills
2. Skin – Laqroki – Tasha in Fair- #10
3. Hair – Diversity Hair – Coquette – Tootsie Brown
4. Eyes- Poetic Colors – Lavender Fields

First off, I’d like to thank Iris for the great job she has been doing as Editor for Second Style. Without her amazing amount of help, great suggestions, being a brainstorm buddy, etc, I would have never been able to get Second Style up to full speed again. THANK YOU!! Unfortunately, Iris is no longer able to commit to her position at Second Style because her new RL job is going so great. I’m very happy for her and wish her the best.

Furthermore, I would like to announce Felicity Blumenthal as the new Editor for Second Style. I’m very excited about this due to her previous experience and will welcome a fresh perspective to the on-goings of the magazine. Please join me in welcoming her!
