Paving the road ...

So much for good intentions! RL has all but swallowed me whole :(

I really appreciated Tymmerie's comment emphasizing the POSITIVE aspects of SL for the short of avi. Flying is wonderful, even with the challenge of those red ban lines. And not having to hem skirts and trousers -- well yeah!

I just dropped a new coat off at the RL tailor yesterday. It was a "petite" and over 2 inches needed to come off the sleeves:(

On the other hand those popular ruffled cuffs in SL often need a bit of *tweaking* before going out in public. After all you wouldn't want to drag them through your virtual soup would you?

And then there are the "full length" formal gowns with no-mod flexi skirts -- one of my biggest SL pet peeves. In my case they are "full and a half length" and I spend the evening dragging my skirt through the floor behind me. Sometime a picture does better than words.

[If you can't see the picture, my skirt extends well below the opening in the floor. ] Perhaps designers might consider providing two sizes? I have seen that in a few cases recently and it is MUCH appreciated in these here parts.
