Pink Fuel and More

  Hi all! I got this awesome skin from Pink Fuel for Skin Fair and I am all about it! I put together a look with freebies I got so enjoy some fun!

  This skin is Emiri. It was originally a gacha skin in three tones (those tones are still in the gacha only) but now this skin has been expanded to include a billion other tones for purchase. It comes with several brow colors, a no brow option, and 9 lipsticks. It's a pretty good deal and very high quality.  It's for the Genus head only so keep that in mind!
  My hair and earrings are from Analog Dog and Romanzi at the Imaginarium. You have to join the Gimme Gacha group to grab them. The place was surprisingly empty considering the adorable gachs items for sale and the ton of gifts. Check it out if you can! My head jewel thing is a fishing prize at Sn@tch. I love it so much. I always try to hit up the fishing area at Sn@tch each round and the initial pole purchase cost has been repaid over and over many times over the years.
  OK have fun and check out everything at these places listed above. Some very cool stuff!

Food and Shoes

  I love both food and shoes and combining them for eating and wearing isn't generally a good idea so have some photos instead!
  The first pair of shoes is from Dilly Dolls.  Original mesh, lots of colors available, awesome as always.  She tends to do items in color options for everyone, from dark, goth colors to sweet, pastel colors.  You can pretty much find any color you want.  My food choice here is the pizza from Scarlet Apple currently at Collabor88.  What can I say, I love pizza.  It has steam coming off of it inworld but I turned particles off for the photo out of habit so you can't see it here.

   The second pair you probably already have and know about but when I thought burger and fries I thought drive-in rollerskating waitress.  They are from The Secret Store, there are a million colors, they were for The Arcade but that is over now.  My burger and fries (and cute little ketchup packets!) are from Pilot and were a past FLF item.  So cute!!

  OK, back to taking more pictures of shoes.  I really love shoes and it is time I gave them some more love.  More details below!
Worn:
Heels: Dilly Dolls, lots of color options and packs available
Roller Skates: The Secret Store, gacha from past Arcade, not sure if still available but I will check when I log in next and update then.

You Have Undies on Your Cupcakes.

  Cupcakes has a new skin line out called Creampuff.  They had an older line with the same name but believe me, it's different and much improved this time around.  There are so many options with this new line I really can't even begin to photo them all without spending all day doing it.  I am just going to show you some more basic options so you can have an idea of what to expect.

  First I wanted to show one of the darker tones called Tiramisu.  The skin I am wearing is shown with the "unlined eyes" tattoo layer option as well as the "lips concealed" lipstick layer.  I felt that wearing the two together gave a very nice, clean option for those who prefer natural looks.
  Next I wanted to show one of the lightest tones called Sugar.  This is also a fairly natural look but I added some minimal makeup to give it a sort of bedroom-sweet appeal. I wore the no brow version of the skin with tattoo layers for flushed cheeks, freckles, and a basic eyeliner.

  All skins come with the natural skin in six eyebrow options, shape, appliers for Lola's, and tattoo layers in the following choices: freckles, flushed cheeks, unlined eyes, facial contour, enhanced cleavage, pink lip, rose lip, concealed lip, and peach lip.  Wowza!  Also available for purchase are packs of lipsticks, eye makeups, and eyes to match.  This really is a lot!  There are seven tones available for this line.
  One other new thing I have found out about Cupcakes is that they have stopped doing full perm mesh and will also be discontinuing their skin templates (with the exception of the rare, limited edition ones.)  This is big news!
  OK, off I go for now!  Check the details below for more info. on the other item.
Worn:

Working

  The worst part of working on something all day is when you try to sit down and relax you still see the task every time you close your eyes.  I feel like the shadow angle here (one of the Bryn Oh ones on firestorm, I can't remember which) makes it look like, even though the avatar has her eyes closed and is taking a break from work, the shadow of herself is still concentrated on working.
  Today is a break from things for me in a way so I am keeping the writing to a minimum and will just let you read the details below.

Details:
Blouse w/Tango appliers included: Sn@tch, part of a pack
Black corset part: Blacklace, free as part of a hunt gift lingerie set
Skirt: The Sea Hole @ The Arcade, gacha item
Socks: Dirty Lynx
Skin, Hair, Head: Fashionably Dead
Table and Pot: Post, part of FLF from yesterday
Eggs: Schadenfreude , part of FLF from yesterday
Collar: Lassitude & Ennui @ L'accessoires

A Sleepless Night

  Well, who could sleep really when they have a corset on?  But ignore that thought because it's a picture and it has a night time feel and shhhh I am tired. :P

  My corset is one of three colors from Lassitude&Ennui for the Adore&Abhor 5 year anniversary celebration.  I was on vacation so I didn't get to put an item out and I missed the start of it (which made me SUPER SAD) but it's still going on and there are so many great deals so check it out!  My collar is also from L&E and is available at the L'Accessoires event.  It's romantic and lovely as L&E does perfectly.  I added an underwear set from Sn@tch (an older item but still good!) that also had the romance vibe going on to match.  More details below!

Corset: Lassitude&Ennui @ Adore&Abhor anniversary, other colors available

How Do You Afford Your Rock and Roll Lifestyle?

I was talking to someone on Plurk recently about how we are both sort of stuck in the 90's.  It's true, it really is.  I think, to an extent, people tend to have some sort of subconscious preference for a lot of things that were around when they were developing into an adult.  Like, my mom is really fashionable, totally with the times, but I can often see some hint of the 70s in what she likes.  With me, I find myself most excited about things that are from about 1994-2001 or so.  I remember wanting to be Gwen Stefani SO BAD when Tragic Kingdom came out.  I wore plaid pants and tank tops whenever I could for so long, haha.  Even well into high school I would bedazzle my bra straps so when they stuck out they were sparkly like hers were back then.  I totally should still do that. D:

Anyway, these plaid pants from Dilly Dolls reminded me of those times a lot.  I love how they have a curvier shape to them than most brands I have been seeing these days.  They also super pegged on the bottom so you can wear them under boots!  The sizes run a bit weird, like I usually have to wear a small or medium in pants but I wore an extra small with these.  Comes with all sizes though, so woo!  My sweater is the weekly special from Sn@tch and in several collar/cuff texture choices.  Currently 75L per size.  More info. below!
Worn:
Pants: Dilly Dolls (160L right now for the full pack of ten colors of the plaid.  Other style packs available.)
Shirt: Sn@tch (Currently 75L per size with four styles included.)

Skin: PXL
Lipstick: Adore&Abhor, not yet released

Three Flavors of Cupcakes

First thing I want to say I know my pics might not be totally up to par at the moment.  I moved in RL and I just am not used to how things are set up yet.  You should, however, still be able to see how lovely these new skin lines from Cupcakes are!  First is the latest line called Nora.  I love how this is very natural, like when you wear it you feel like you could meet some lovely young woman with these features in real life.

 Next is Starlet.  I chose a plain-lipped makeup for this line to show you the newer lip style.  I love the way this makeup looks like a matter or very bare lip would look.

Finally the next line is Doll.  I chose a red lip for this line because, well, I love red lips the best and this is a wonderful shade of it.  I chose a the regular cleavage option and wore my smaller-chested shape to show how the body works well with a smaller bust size.  The skin line also comes with a fuller breast but I think the flat-chested folks might like to see how things could look on them as well so I chose to show this option.

Each line from Cupcakes is available in many tones with multiple body, face and makeup options.  The skins are always affordable and there is almost always a great deal to be had somewhere in the store.  Check it out!
Worn:
All Skin: Cupcakes
Hair 1: D!va @ Collabor88
Hair 2 and 3: Action (brown hair is part of the September VIP gift which I think should still be out, 250L join fee for that group.)
Ink'd Dress: Ladies Who Lunch @ The Dressing Room Blue, 70L for dress, leggings and boots (dress also has a shoulder attachment, not worn)
Zebra Bikini: Sn@tch, comes with multiple trim color options, transferable

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!
Worn:
Pants: L'aph
Sweater: Sn@tch
Tee Shirt and Nails: RezIpsa Loc
Skin: Glam Affair
Hair and Eyeliner: Adore&Abhor (eyeliner is a hunt gift)
Eyes: Umeboshi (limited time group gift in store)

Utilitarian

Most of the clothing I buy and blog is the dress-up type.  I show dresses, lingerie, high heels, etc.  One thing I don't show as often are very casual things.  Well, I got these shoes from Bitch and I fell in love with the faux utilitarian style.  I say faux utilitarian because they have a rugged style to them, almost like a work boot, but they have a high, dressy wedge heel.  I love how they have the elastic bits on the side so you feel like if you were putting them on in RL they would just slide on quick and easy.  I'm wearing the most tame color here but there are brighter colors too, like red and purple, as well as classic black and other neutral colors.

My pants are from Sn@tch's weekly Wednesday 75L special.  The color I am wearing here reminds me of some Dickie's I had back when I was a much younger girl and needed some pants that could withstand dirty basement punk rock shows.  They are mesh and come with a whole bunch of colors.  For the price you get only one size choice so try the demo!!!  They are not made with Standard Sizing in mind so don't assume you know which size will fit you without trying. 
Worn:
Shoes: Bitch @ FaMeshed monthly event
Pants: Sn@tch, 75L special (includes several colors)
Kitchen Utensil: Plausible Body, part of a pay-what-you-want outfit (heavily edited for the photo)

Sn@tch Some Stuff Up

It was Ivey's birthday yesterday!  if you don't know who Ivey is, she is the creator of Sn@tch, a huge clothing (and more) store in SL that has been around for ten trillion years.  She's very opinionated and very sweet and I adore her.  I wanted to show the cute sweater and makeup I got the other day from Sn@tch anyway so this is perfect timing!  The sweaters are long and come on multiple layers with multiple colors, are transferable, and all barely over 200L!  :O  The skirt is part of a dress that has all the same awesome features listed above.  Can't beat the value!

 My makeup is also from Sn@tch.  I've always loved her skins but sometimes I want to wear different brands so it's nice to have the option of makeup only now.  This comes in a darker pack and a more party friendly pack, both with lots of options and cheap as well.  My jewelry is from Hate Me and Eat Me.  I blog them a lot, can you tell I like them? :P  My hair is from Fashionably Dead.  They were having a 50% off sale and I don't know if it's still going on but either way go there and buy hair because it's awesome. :P

 Worn:
Clothing and Tattoo Layer Makeup: Sn@tch
Skin: Red Mint
Jewelry: Hate Me and Eat Me
Hair: Fashionably Dead
Eyes: Croire
Neck Tattoo: Es' Cusi, 25L

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!

Shoe Fair Roller Derby

Um how awesome are these roller skates from Dilly Dolls? Pretty awesome I'd say. I would say I want them in RL but I would probably end up in a cast like my av here. I should also add that these awesome sauces are color change on every part via a hud and are the Dilly Dolls charity donation item. Get the Sn@tch knee pads too in case you are as clumsy as I am!

Angel or Demon?

My friend Laerke sent me a link to a gorgeous dress on Xstreet. I bought it hoping it was as great as it was in the picture....it totally is!It's so romantic feeling with it's puffed sleeves, bustle, lace, and even an umbrella with holding AO. I put the top from the Lil Nipper dress from Sn@tch over it to add a bit of extra sauciness. It all goes perfectly with the hair from Miamai at Hair Fair. I was wandering around in this outfit and got two separate people asking me to tell them where the hair was from because they wanted to get it right then. :)

Dress w/Umbrella and Gloves: Aliza Karu Creations
