Rise against the wind

Today I bring you brand new items from Tres Chic, ULTRA, Collabor88 and Whore Couture.

I have been running round in this outfit for about 3 days, unable to find poses or props that felt right, till I went to Tres Chic and saw this prop set from Frozen.  it comes with 5 poses and 5 kite props.  I LOVE this Teefy top for Collabor88, so much so that I keep running back to pick up another colour while they are still at C88.  I am a huge Lapointe & Bastchild fan so I ran very quickly to pick up these boho style jean shorts from ULTRA, and I am not disappointed, they fit perfectly and I love the texture change hud they come with.  

I did tell Zsa that kiting should not really be done in high heels but as always, she wouldn't listen.  Her shoes are brand new from Essenz, and to seek them out I paid my first ever visit to Whore Couture.  I was actually flipping between C88, home and Whore Couture while working out which top and shoe choices I liked best.

#517 There are always flowers

In today's post I am sharing items from no less than 7 events.  This includes new releases available at N21, Collabor88, The Aloha Fair, Tres Chic, Shiny Shabby, Cosmopolitan and Gacha Guardians.  

There are always flowers for those who want to see them - Henri Matisse

 Annie Melson has made some new capris for N21, and they are sheer perfection.  Beautifully moulded to my Maitreya Lara mesh body, they come with a fitted belt which you can leave off if you wish. The capris have realistic folds and creases and a sweet tie at the outside bottom hem.  You can buy them singly (which includes a hud to change the texture of various parts of the belt), or as a fatpack, and also the N21 exclusive I am wearing here, with a pretty flower motif on the front and back pocket.  My sweet sandals are brand new original mesh from Slipper Originals for Aloha Fair which opens January 27th.  

My charm bracelet is from Cae for the current round of Gacha Guardians.  My necklace and earrings, also from Cae, are from Cosmopolitan - but the round finishes on the 30th, so don't delay!  My hair from Elikatira is brand new for Shiny Shabby and comes in her usual array of generous colour packs.

#511 Who says I am a witch!

Today I have gathered together items from We Love Roleplay, Season's Story, Cosmopolitan, Color Me Project and Mesh Body Addicts Fair.  I am wearing Catwa's Annie mesh head with Pink Fuel's recently updated Sora applier. 

I had fun putting this look together, I always enjoy doing the dark, gothy/punky type posts, and this one was built from this cute new skirt from Doc Eldritch for We Love Roleplay.  I always love his dark rich palette and this skirt is no different, the textures are really beautiful.

Doc also has this great tank set available at Mesh Body Addicts Fair.  Both skirt and tank are available in a huge array of fits, and the Maitreya choice fits my Maitreya Lara perfectly.  Thy are available in a choice of colours or Doc's very reasonable hud operated fat pack (buy the fatpack!  buy the fatpack!).   Each choice comes with a plain tank and the lip textured one I am wearing here.   

I know, I know, more cat poses but really, how can a crazy pixel cat woman resist such fun poses with the cute black kitty!  Funny story, someone posted on Plurk last week about some kittycats that they were sending to the menagerie unless someone wanted them.  The menagerie is where you send cats you no longer want, and from whence they can never return.  I was "noooo, they can live with me!".  These are pixel cats, I know that, and they are not real, I know that too, but even so, I couldn't think of them being sent to the pixel graveyard.  I think I am spending too much time in sl :).
