..since I came around! I have been playing super catch up on my own blog, but here I am! Today I wanted to put together a look that was cute, but not my usual style, so I went a bit darker than normal, stepped out of my own skin into someone elses.. and it felt good!
I finally got around to visiting the Tomorrow Today fundraiser and picked up quite a few goodies, and saw a few booths that led me to other stores, so everything (almost) in this picture has been purchased in the last half an hour or so! YAY!
I adore these boots from Zombie Suicide, I knew I had to have them but I didn’t know how i’d wear them, but I found a perfect hoodie dress there too and voila, the darker side of cute sprang to mind!
I love these eyes that I picked up from IKON from the fundraiser, as well as this gorgeous skin from Modish, not my usual look but one I think I dig, as it’s a bit different and I like to be a bit different sometimes.

Sometimes RL can invade our Living the Cute Life in SL! I admit, this has happened to be over the last few weeks. My inventory is totally not Cute after being neglected for so long. How do you all handle not so cute inventory situations? Do you have a favourite method or tool to keep things organized? On the bright side, I did manage to score an absolutely cute hoodie from RibboN that I’ve pretty much been living in (When I wasn’t wearing a bikini and running through random sims throwing snowballs at people – Don’t judge, we were bored and trying to get everyone into the Winter Spirit!) RibboN has a bunch of hoodies available, both from their lucky boards and for sale (at really good prices too). Between the lucky boards and buying, I think I own the whole store. This is what happens when a Bratista like me, finds something cute!

Hi, this my first cutie post. I’m Bellacita and I’ll be bringing you some cute looks. Today I’m showing some cute pumpkin poses you can get at the Arcade Gatcha from Adorkable Poses. Also the latest fall releases from Cold Logic.
When I first started Second Life, I did what everyone does. I got freebies. Copious quantities of freebies. I scoured the search finding the newbie friendly stores, that had rows upon rows of outfits, that at the time I thought were amazing. My inventory was a disaster and my wardrobe was a bit…blingie (yes, I wore the blinged out, flashie white stiletto heals. Don’t judge me! *giggles*). I wasn’t satisfied with what I was finding for free content and I was a cheap skate. My goodness have times changed. I think it was around my second month, I realized that I needed a change. I call this my first stage of cuteness. I decided to make my own skin, modeling it after my real life (I spent 10 weeks looking at myself with a mirror, I don’t recommend this to anyone). I checked out my scars and my beauty marks, I even had a few checked out by a doctor (one can never be too careful, especially when you’re fair-skinned and prone to sunburns). I purchased hair, eyes on and on and on, and began my quest for finding the cutest girlie frilly fru fru dresses possible. We’re talking crinoline, poof skirts and stockings here. This became an obsession.
I began finding store upon store, and I began buying everything within the stores. It’s actually a running joke amongst my friends that when we go into a store, they’re expecting to hear me say “There’s nothing new here, I bought everything in the store”. Most of the time, it was true.
I look back at this time, and I sort of giggle. I look at the clothing I bought and I simply smile. I think back then the excitement of finding that perfect frilly dress cannot be fully described. I remember hearing about a shop that was closing down. I was so incredibly sad because it was one of my favourite stores, but then I caught wind that they were reducing their prices. Immediately, I grabbed my trusty Visa and purchased more Linden than any person should really do. I did buy the store, and the images in this post show one of the dresses that I grabbed. I have it in 6 colours and until I sat down to write this, I had nearly forgot about it.
So here is my question to you. What was your first phase of cuteness? Were you much like me and dived directly into the frilly fru fru dresses? Did you go for the sexy, yet sweet seductress look? Did slip on some jeans and a t-shirt? I think it’s amazing to see what others define as their cute style, so please provide some feedback and share your first phase of cute!
