LOTD 8-31-15

  I remember when I was a teenager and I dressed like this for a while.  Now I am old and chubby and can't pull it off but whatever, lol.  At least I still have good style in RL and SL! I had never been to Miss Chelsea before, where I got these pants, and I am very happy with them.  And this hair?  I have never had anything like it in SL.  It's awesome.  Add my cool stole, lingerie top, heels, and a cool backdrop and I feel pretty great!

My Husband Says This Purse Is Awesome

  So my husband said this purse is cool and I agree.  It's one of several "mouths" you can get at Pixicat for Kustom 9.  There are four lip versions and you can get choose from three color packs for each one and there are all kind of other options like piercings!  Pretty dang cool.
  My shorts are from Moon Amore.  I love the lace on these.  I wish I could wear lace shorts in RL but...uh...ain't nobody wanna see that. The price is way better in SL than it is in RL anyway, seeing as you get 10 colors for 150L, so whatevs, haha!

  My hair is from LaNoir Soleil Designs.  I blogged them HERE before when showing their prize for The Lost Mine Hunt and I stopped into the store again and am now basically in love.  Who doesn't love finding mesh hair places they didn't know about before?

Super Casual and Conservative

I have been feeling the casual vibe lately.  I know any minute I'll be back to my unusual preferences but for the moment it's all about neutrals and soft colors.  I was hanging out with my friend Dahl and she was like WTF...you look so professional/casual I am frightened.  That means I did good!

Now, about the clothes!  My pants are from L'Aph, a newish store that sells mesh awesomeness.  Lots of sizes included and also there are three cuff style options.  My sweater is from Sn@tch and comes in multiple colors, all transferable.  More info. on items below!

Smack Talking on the Sidelines

I was wearing this outfit and realized it reminded me of the fancy girls being at the party talking about the other girls' outfits and being fabulous and rich and whatnot.  So, hey, put a martini and a cigarette in it and you've got that girl. Sometimes it's fun to be someone else.  But anyway, this dress is adorable and it's from Gotzsche at Vintage Fair.  It's got multiple sizes and an alpha layer and all of that.  There are other colors too if you don't like the pinkish pallet. *Cough* Isabeau *Cough*

My skin is a new release from Adam N Eve at Vintage Fair.  I did a close up HERE.  The pack includes options for dimples, cleavage, eyebrow colors, 6 lipstick tattoos and 6 eyeshadow tattoos on top of the skin itself!  That's a lot of awesome.  I am wearing the palest tone but there is a tone darker than this available as well.  If you want more details on the drink in my hand from Circa check out my Free*Style post HERE.

Dress: Gotzsche @ Vintage Fair

My Digits

I decided to participate in the shape survey thingy Strawberry Singh did HERE.  I could have just commented on the blog or posted on Flickr but I really like this bikini from RezIpsa Loc and even though I showed the top HERE I just felt like showing the whole thing again and I might as well do it here. :P

Migraine Blog

CURSES YOU HORRIBLE MIGRAINE!  I SHALL SMITE YOU WITH TYLENOL AND CAFFEINE!  FEEL MY WRATH!  Okay, maybe I am being a bit dramatic but the Festival of Sin includes the sin wrath, am I right?  Well, any excuse to use the angry face emote in SL I guess.  Haha!  One thing I absolutely can't be angry about though is this dress from RezIpsa Loc.  I met RezIpsa a couple of years ago when she sent me a review copy of jeans in her store when she had about 10 items in the whole place.  I loooooved them so much!  Eventually we started chatting a bit and she joined Plurk where I have been able to see all of her releases and watch her grow as an artist and it's been so fun to see the progress.  I really love these lace dresses (they come in a billion colors) though I'll say right now I photoshopped the prim part of the skirt to blend in better for the photo.  It matched well already but my shadows messed the lighting up and it looked crazy in the final photo so I smudged it to make it look prettier. xD  I don't usually PS much of anything so I wanted to put that out there, haha.

My skin is a new release for the Festival of Sin from La Petite Morte.  I'm kind of addicted to finding new skin designers, skins being my biggest shopping weakness since I joined SL, so to find a store like LPM that is making original, basically from scratch, skins that is still fairly unknown is pretty exciting.  The skins have been making the blog rounds lately and I am excited to see other people's photos and really excited to see what the creator comes up with in the future.  My necklace is from Caroline's Jewelry at the Festival and it's just a fun, simple, messy necklace that really fits the "sloth" theme but in the classy style expected of Caroline's.  The hair is from Amacci and...well...it's just so wild and crazy I couldn't NOT blog it.  I'm a sucker for big, crazy hair!

Sorry Kitty for all the Festival of Sin posts. xD  I'll get back to more stuff in normal stores I promise!

Quick and Free and Limited Time Only!

Hi all!  I have an all free/cheap post for you today. :D  I usually do my entirely free/cheap posts on Free*Style and save this blog for full priced and free/cheap/full priced mixes but I felt like posting here anyway this time around, hehe.  My skin is free for a limited time only from Adam n Eve in honor of Etta James and will be back to full price on MONDAY.  I love the tone, the lips, everything. The skin has a natural breast but I am using a cleavage layer from Ayumi for added oomph.  The Darkglen eyes I'm wearing are from Adam n Eve as well and are also free.  They are actually the demo but are totally wearable since they have no demo marks and are to be considered more of a sample.

My hair is from Alice Project and actually it's *two* hair styles worn together because I'm crazy like that.  The main part of the hair is mesh and is on the MM board for VIP members only (250L join fee but there is a second board with a different style for everyone, not just VIPs also.)  The flexi ponytail add-on is from a different style that I won in the MM board.  I pretty much think it's straight up genius to do an attachment with flexi so that you can get the detail of the mesh item with the realism of flex.  Obviously you need a viewer that allows mesh and multiple attachments so keep that in mind if you want this look.  My eye makeup is from Glamorize on the marketplace and is ridiculously cheap (1L for the shadow, 6L for the lashes that come with both tattoo layer and prim versions) and nice quality as all their items are, generally speaking. My dress is from Dead Dollz and I also found it on the marketplace for only 1L.  The dress appears to be hand-drawn and I am all about that.  Finally, my nails on the glove layer are from RezIpsa Loc.  I almost exclusively wear their nails because they always fit with my skins, no matter the tone, and they seem to be as realistic as glove layer nails can be considering the weird avatar mesh.  You can get a big pack of colors for 50L this weekend for La Venta Eventa.

Whole Bunch of Awesome

Today I have a few wonderful things I would like to share. The main thing being the new skin, Yolande, from Adam N Eve. When I put it on I felt really...well..cool! I paired it here with one of the Hair Fair styles from BC322. Yay!Here I have paired the base skin with one of the hair styles from RezIpsa Loc. The style makes the skin seem sweet and natural, even if you wear the super cleavage. ;DI chose a few of my fave makeups from the skin line to share, two lipsticks and two eyeshadow styles, though there are many more offerings.Here I wanted to show the body because it's really nice! The body is much softer than some of the previous offerings from AnE. I especially love the booty!There are more tones available, including one that is very dark, which is kind of rare in SL. Each tone includes base skin, ten tattoo makeups, cleavage option, hair base tattoo option, and six mani/pedis to match the lip color options. Each tone is 1800L and with all the makeup combinations you get it's like an incredibly cheap fat pack!

It's a Fantasy

I've been thinking about tolerance a lot lately, ever since there was an argument on Plurk centered around religious discrimination. I started to think how it would be great if we could all be the same and then stopped myself and realized that would not be great at all. The differences we have that make us unique are amazing and when people can agree to disagree and work together peacefully, well, that is truly beautiful. My dream, my fantasy, is for us all to better embrace our differences and focus on what makes us the same, how we can get a long, how much love we can give.

While that is not the sort of fantasy one would find at the Fantasy Faire, there is a lot of beauty, charity and many different themes all together in one place. There are items at the Faire to benefit Relay For Life, an organization that raises money for cancer research. Cancer is something that affects everyone, every race, every religion, every sexual preferences, every age. We all can suffer from it and we can all work together to try and find a cure. We are all human and in that word, human, there is pain, loss and suffering but there is also hope, love, compassion and beauty. Whether or not you come to the event to support charity or to buy gorgeous works of art to wear on your avatar, you will be surrounded by beauty and difference. Hopefully that will inspire you to be more positive and to try and full fill the fantasy of true peace in the world.
