Baking Sunshine: The Lemon Torta Caprese Experiment A sunny twist on a Capri classic — my first Lemon Torta Caprese turned out to be pure summer on a plate. Light, tangy, and perfect with ice cream, it’s a recipe worth repeating. Plus, the in-world look that matches the vibe.

Pizza, Pixels & Poetry: My Romantic Renaissance Friday Friday brought two delights: Collabor88’s 14th birthday with its Romantic Renaissance theme, and the grand opening of Costa di Luce, a stunning Italy-inspired sim. I soaked in jazzy tunes, sea views, and a perfect virtual pizza—dressed in baggy jeans, kitten heels, and fresh finds from this dreamy shopping round.

Untitled Summer sims bring all the calm: birdsong, blooming flowers, and the perfect excuse to dress up. Today’s look? A sultry berry dress by Valentina E, bold brows from Midori, and yes… I dared to wear flexi hair (and liked it). Style, serenity, and a sprinkle of sass—right this way.

Tabula Rasa: Cleo by Moccino Today’s blank canvas is Cleo, the newest face from Moccino, and she's bringing all the Renaissance body tones to the table! I stumbled upon her for just L$99—a total steal. I have no clue how long she’ll stay at that price, so if you’re tempted… better sprint, not stroll. I picked up Cleo in Honey, which is a warm, golden tone close to my usual…

Put your homophobia up your arse

Homophobia isn’t an opinion, it’s just hate in cheap disguise. Love wins. Always has, always will. If that bothers you… maybe the problem is you. 💅🏽 #LoveIsLove #StopHomophobia #QueerAndProud #PixelPride #VirtualActivism #gangofhomos

Last Week on Pixel Approved: New Look, Same Sass

Poolside Chic: Style, Sunshine & Prosecco

Hotter Than a Second Life Summer: My Picks from SeraPlus SeraPlus is back with another round of fabulous gifts, and trust me—it’s a feast. For those unfamiliar, SeraPlus is the Seraphim-initiated program that brings exclusive perks to Plus, Premium, and Premium Plus members. While I understand not everyone can or wants to upgrade their Second Life membership, the value is definitely there. Between the weekly stipend and the generous extras, you’ll likely find that it offsets much of the cost—especially if you’re active (or let’s be honest, a little addicted) like I am.

Sunset, Sand & Aperol: Unwinding at Bleriot Plage

Sunset, sand, Aperol in hand. Heels on the beach. Casual elegance in every step. Bleriot Plage calls you to slow down—and look good doing it.

Lookbook

Hyperinformed, Undernourished (But Still Well-Dressed) When I was a kid, I read constantly. And I don’t mean “a book or two here and there” kind of reading—I mean devouring entire stacks weekly, counting down the days until I could return to the library for my next fix. At the dinner table, if there wasn’t a book nearby, I’d read the labels on the ketchup bottle.

Sunset, Sand & Aperol: Unwinding at Bleriot Plage After wrapping up another whirlwind day at the office, I craved a little quiet—and Bleriot Plage never disappoints. It’s the perfect escape: peaceful, scenic, and blissfully empty except for a few seagulls who seem just nosy enough to count as company. I love sitting here, looking out over the calm sea, and letting the day slowly unravel as the sun begins to dip.

Tailored, Timeless, and Just a Touch of Green You all know I have a soft spot (okay, a major weakness) for Thalia Heckroth’s creations—and her latest release is no exception. She’s just dropped a new fit-and-flare dress that’s a masterclass in minimalist design with luxurious detail. Crafted from the purest SLinen, the fabric drapes beautifully and the tailoring is, as always, impeccable. The silhouette may seem simple at first glance—clean lines, classic cut—but the real magic is in the…

A Stroll Through Elegance (and a Perfect New Outfit) Today is one of those days where the sun is just right, the breeze is gentle, and the world practically begs you to go outside. So that’s exactly what I did—off for a walk through the stunning The Grove Country Club Estates park. Walking there honestly feels like drifting through the Giardini di Boboli in Florence. It’s that beautiful. These sims are…

Gilded Glamour, with a Touch of Sass If you’ve known me for a while, you know I’m usually all about minimalism, effortless elegance, and that quiet, understated luxury the TikTok generation now insists on calling “old money style.” (Don’t even get me started on that… but that’s another rant for another day.) Today? Today is about indulging. Every time I watch a new episode of…

Dramallamadingdong! This morning started off like any other—just a girl heading to the lovely farmers market in Cerulean Township to pick up some fresh produce, honey, bread, and maybe a little wine (for hydration, obviously). But of course, my Aardvark Drama llama had other plans. She was not pleased when I told her she couldn’t come. So yes, I caved. There we were—me, my sassy llama, and a shopping tote full of local goodies, playing out what looked like an unusually glamorous slice-of-life Saturday.

A Little Fashion, A Little Flavor: My Favorite Pasta Recipe Let’s switch it up today, shall we? Usually, I’m here talking about what’s in my wardrobe, but today? We’re heading to the kitchen. Because honestly, what’s style without a little substance—and preferably some carbs? If there’s one dish you could wake me up for at 3 AM, it’s Spaghetti all’Amatriciana. No hesitation, no questions asked. This Roman classic is comfort food at its finest—simple, rustic, and absolutely irresistible when done right.

LOTD: Vacation or not, Collabor88 must be shopped! Confessions of a Serial Shopper (On Vacation, No Less) Look, I’ll say it loud and proud: I am a shopaholic. Possibly one of SL’s original fashion victims. And while I don’t get quite the same heart-racing thrill I used to when the monthly events roll around (I know, I am that spoiled by now), I still throw myself into a little retail therapy before I trade my sneakers for flip-flops and hit full vacation mode once more.

This time it was the Amalia blouse—a timeless piece that's as versatile as it is beautifully made. Since I’m still in vacation mode (read: minimal effort, maximum style), I paired the Amalia blouse with David Heather’s Chiara Culottes. I could’ve spent ages digging through my inventory for the…

My totally comfy loafers with a modest heel are Edda, by David Heather, and I feel I should have bought the fatpack of those too, but I'm trying to respect my budget!
