Alright, got that outta my system!
It is also Step Up Day, Step Up is an organization that is helping to combat content theft in Second Life. Please, show your support. At the very bottom of this post I will give you more information!

For now, I’m back to supporting creators by showing off their goodies.  I’ve been fortunate enough to meet several people in the SL fashion industry, and I also find myself in the company of outstanding fashion bloggers.  What this has done for me, is increase the respect I have for them.  This is one reason I am writing this simple little blog, I hope to send even one person to the doors of these creative folks who work so hard to ensure our virtual personalities never need to suffer in bad taste!!

Today’s Look was nudged on by my buddy Ona Ra.  I love this flowy skirt from DP YUM YUM but really had no idea what I would pair with it.  Impulse buy? Who me? NEVER!

I dug around and found a blouse by **en svale** its in a spring green, but in the store it is labeled as ‘berry’ due to the floral designs at the neckline. Don’t let that confuse you, but better yet just buy all of her blouses.  I am sure I own half of the items in there, and her prices are always so reasonable.

Completing my outfit are baubles from Earthstones. (yes I do own other jewels but my chest of Abraxxas goodies never seems to be full).  This necklace and earrings set is called Jharna Attraction.  The deep chocolate browns make it a very versatile set for fall.

My hair this morning channels a bit of early 70′s Cher, it’s called Faye and is by Maitreya.  Skin today is a different League skin called Misty in Deep Tan and Glam makeup.

We have enabled a new feature here, that allows you to ‘click to view larger’ on all of these photos. I hope you’ll find that useful.

Now, for more information from Step Ups organizers. Please feel free to contact one of them, or myself for an educational pack

Step UP! is a campaign centred on a special day of action that everyone can become involved with, and that can empower and inform people about the problem of content theft, and what they can do about it..

We are aiming for a day that draws together action, education and celebration. We want a focus that empowers people and allows them to express their own creatvity in a variety of ways. It also draws attention to the strength of feeling that there is here on the grid.

Step UP! Day will be November 5th – Guy Fawkes Day or Bonfire Night in the UK.

Action:
a) On this day – no-one uploads textures to the grid. This should show the economic power of people acting together, without harming content creators. We want Linden Lab to see the power of the feeling about the problem of content theft – and to discuss urgently strategies for tackling it.

b) As many people as possible wear an orange ribbon as a sign of support for creators.

Celebration:
The day ends with parties. Bonfire parties. That means that all around the grid, people have parties.

We’re encouraging every club to hold a Step Up! party. We encourage every musician to play Step UP! events. Everyone on the grid has a part to play. Everyone can take part.

Education:
1) Info notecards
You’ll find a notecard here in your pack:

2) Media
All over the blogsphere, on inworld TV shows and radio stations, people will be talking about Step Up! and what it means.

On the Designing Worlds shows we’ve talked again and again about the need for a social shift – so that people see content theft as socially and morally unacceptable. So … let’s go for it!

The concept originates with a small group – Angie Mornington, Gabrielle Riel, Gwen Carillon and Saffia Widdershins. But more and more people are now becoming involved. And you can too:

These are the only non prim toe or non BOOTS that I wear. I just love the details Abraxxa put on these, and phooey if I have to have plain toes I’ll have plain toes
