Nantra – Who are you wearing

#479 To light a candle is to cast a shadow

....Ursula K Le Guin

I am so into my mesh heads now, I can't imagine I will ever be able to wear my system head again!  Today I am wearing Mila from Belleza on my Catwa Jessica head again but with the addition of some of the make-up from their new add-on which is available at The Liaison Collaborative.  

My dress and shoes are from a Hilly Haalan ouftit currently available at The Designer Showcase.  The outfit includes a clutch (not shown), and all three pieces are texture change via hud, giving a selection of mix and match solids and patterned textures to choose from.  The dress and shoes are compatible with most of the major mesh bodies plus classic avvies.

I used a new studio for these pics - when I got my new pc I was very much into the "on location rather than studio" mindset as I finally had a pc that could cope.  However, there are occasions when I missed using a studio so when I heard about this one in a youtube video by Morgana Hilra here I ran to check it out - long story short, I was impressed, I bought it, and I love it!   

For just $350 this studio from SecondSnaps has everything I need plus a whole heap more.  There is a great choice of backgrounds already loaded and there are more to purchase or you can load your own.  It comes with a pose stand loaded with quality female and male poses (I am using Nantra poses here though).  It also has a shadow menu giving some great shadow options, and you can alter the opacity of those shadows, which is really useful.  There are also colour change lights which you can choose to use, or not.  I have only had the studio a few days so still have to learn all it can do, but already I can say without a second's doubt that for 350L it is incredible value for money and I wish I had found it years ago!

#454 Happiness is....wearing a pretty dress (especially this one!)

Today's is a very quick post as the promo on this dress I am showing you is this weekend only.  First though, I make no apologies for wearing Amacci's Simon again, as I am totally in love with the style.  The variants hud I have gives you so many fabulous texture choices but I think I have found my absolute favourite in this gorgeous purple/pink fade.

 Onto the dress, which is on promo this weekend for just 99L - it is a seriously cute original mesh dress (one piece), available in two packs, patterned and plain.  Each pack comes with a hud giving you a choice of 30 textures, a few of which I am showing you here from each hud.  What I really love is the ability to change the top parts separately, so there are endless combinations available.  So, original mesh, 99L for 30 textures, and also so many fits that you are sure to find whatever you need - I chose the Maitreya fit which fits like a glove over my Maitreya Lara mesh body.

In the patterned dress pics I am wearing one of my favourite Elikatira styles, and have chosen to be blonde again.  My shoes are a new release by KC Couture for Tres Chic, and they come with their usual plethora of fits, and with their fantastic texture change hud.  I absolutely love these heels, and am sure I will wear them again and again.
