A Difficult Post

I hate trying to mix mesh pieces from different brands together.  Hate it.  I wanted to challenge myself, though, so I tried.  I sort of succeeded, lol.  The outfit is finally together and I like the way it looks but I had to alter my shape pretty dramatically to make it happen.  I had to fit into a XXS on the corset for it to be able to work under the skirt and my av normally wears a medium or small. 0.0  See, the problem is, the skirt from Bare@Rose only comes in one size.  That size is, I would say, around a medium in standard sizing.  It's rigged so no resizing allowed.  I was dumb and didn't try a demo before buying five new outfits from there, thinking I could use them all for mixing and matching. Blargh.  The wonderful thing about it is that all the pieces from Bare@Rose come in multiple colors, usually with a full out, not just one item, and they are dirt cheap.  So, even though the items are very difficult to mix and match, I am still happy with my B@R purchases.
My top is from Ingenue for Collabor88.  The top is available in a zillion sizes (standard sizing plus more) and the alpha layer textures for downloading to edit in case the alpha layer included doesn't work.  Lots of colors available and only 88L!  My necklace is part of a jewelry set from the MySecondBox group samples this month.  Ring and earrings also included.  My head wrap is from Vaughan's @ Fashion Voodoo.  The head wrap comes with two hair base tattoo layer options (I am not wearing them, I just felt like mixing it up and using a subscriber gift Hairoin base) and the wrap itself is texture change to three different patterns.  My skin is a new-ish release from JM:Mai that I just kind of decided I loved based on the fact that the lips and eye area definition was awesome.  It comes with two lip options and also eyebrows colors on the tattoo layer.
My shoes are new from Lassitude&Ennui for L'Accessoires.  There are lots of colors available for 350L each or you could be a rich girl and get the fat pack for 1000L. xD  The feet come with a skin tinting HUD that is pretty easy to use (color picker and RGB options, as well as various skin texture starting points) and also has twenty nail color options.  Rigged mesh and unrigged, resizable, mesh included.

Puking Rainbows on Alice

  Ever wonder why no one has ever found a mermaid even with all the reported sightings?  Because no one bothers to look when no one believes a pirate covered in rainbow vomit, that's why.
  You can get this awesome rainbow spewer from Weather or Not and this mermaid ensemble from Quaratine, both at the current Zombie Popcorn carnival.  You can wear the face paint from the WoN set by itself but you'll need a friend (or enemy?) if you want the rainbow puking action, since it takes two people to work.  The mesh mermaid tail from Quarantine only comes in one size so keep that in mind. 
   I know my pictures aren't that great this time but I had way too much fun taking these pics that I wasn't paying close enough attention to notice the flaws until after they were done.  Just trust me that everything is nice! xD
Worn:
Rainbow Spewer Set: !Weather or Not? @ Zombie Popcorn
Mermaid Tail (mesh), Shell Bra and Pose: Quarantine @ Zombie Popcorn
Hair: Clawtooth by Clawtooth @ Collabor88, 88L per color pack
Skin: Adore&Abhor, MySecondBox gift item (300L join fee, group joiner in store in case you can't fit it in search)
Additional Notes:
-The person with me in the pirate outfit is Alice Demonia.  I have no clue what she is wearing.
-There are some extra rainbow-y effects I added in the first photo post-process and I found them on Pixlr.
