All that Glitters

The dress I am showing you part of is from Just Because for Fameshed and comes with a glitter and solid one in each colour.  The necklace from my set, also available at Fameshed, comes with one of Cae's great huds giving you not only loads of texture change options but also allows you to hide any of the necklaces so it fits easily into any outfit.

Floating

The cloud Zsa is floating on is the Seeds of Insiration prize when you play the Hopscotch gacha at Gacha Garden 20 times - the other prizes are rezzable clouds in lots of cute shapes.

My jacket/tank and jeans/capris are from RealEvil Industries. The jacket comes with an integral tank, and the jeans can be switched to capris with a click of the hud, so it is a really versatile outfit.  The textures are flawless and I am sure this is an outfit I will wear to death!

My nail and eye make up are both from the new round of Applique, which opens tomorrow, the 11th, and my lips from Alaskametro were at On9 but will soon be on the marketplace.

My eyes are from the brand new set by Avi-Glam, Melancholia, available at Sad November.  I am wearing the Lapis on my Catwa eyes using my Omega applier hud.  I didn't think Kendra could out-do her Serene eyes but she has, these new eyes are truly stunning.

I have changed my hair for the close up simply because I love this new hair from Exile for Collabor88 so much that I couldn't resist wearing it although I had already taken the full body pic with different hair.

He's Behind you!

I am bringing lots of new goodness today, with items from We Love Roleplay, Collabor88 and The Season's Story, including a free gift, and finally a $1L hunt item.

I wanted to do a close up today as I have worn this Acorn set from Cae a few times but they have not been very visible.  This is such a pretty, delicate and unusual set, and deserves to be seen.  Statement pieces have their place, but for when you want something more subtle, this little set is absolutely perfect, and of course, with it being from Cae, it is beautifully made.

My skirt and sweater, currently available at Collabor88 are the first things I have ever bought by Zenith, it fits really well, and the gauzy skirt is so pretty. They also have some cute boots available but I chose to go with some from Mon Cheri for Arcade last December, the gacha is now available in the mainstore. 

As you can tell, these pics were taken in different places - I did take a close up in the same location as I took the pic above, a spooky area set up by my friend Pet.  However, with so many trees about, the dappling of the leaves made Zsa looked like she had some kind of rare tropical disease so I dragged her inside to redo the pic.

Solitude

Today's post brings together items from Collabor88, Salem, Anybody and Twe12ve.

I am always excited when Alia Whitfield, designer of Blissiere comes out with something new, and she never disappoints.  Her adverts alone are worth a read!  This Halloween Mantle is nothing short of epic, and I had such fun putting this blog post together.  The fireplace comes loaded with really high quality animations, the candles flicker and it even comes in 3 sizes so no matter how low your ceiling you will find one to fit.  It is available along with other spooky and cute goodies, at the current Haunted round of Twe12ve.

My skirt and top are by Freya Oiivieri of Mon Cheri for this month's Collabor88 and Anybody.  Both come in a large range of colours but I have gone with black to fit in with my theme.  Both top and skirt are available in single colours or a fatpack which includes a bonus colour.  My earrings from Cae for Salem can be seen better on my flickr feed here.

Today's post brings together items from Season's Story and We Love Roleplay plus a new mainstore release.

My dress and bolero set are a new mainstore release from Just Because.  Stupidly, I forgot to show you the dress without the bolero, but when you demo it, try it both ways and you will see how versatile it is.  Of course, it goes without saying (but I'm going to anyway!) that the mesh fits my Lara absolutely like a dream, and the textures are just perfect.  I love the way the asymmetrical pulled hem and string give the dress a really unusual outline.  Thankfully the dress comes with intrinsic panties to spare our blushes, and you can change them, the string and the buttons via hud. 

My hair from KoKoLoReS comes with two options - the plain hair above and the one shown below, with autumnal leaves.  The lovely Sisch FIrecaster is creating up a storm at the moment with lots of great new styles for various events, and I am sure I will be sharing more very soon.  My lip and eye make-up are just two of the many items La Boheme has available for just 50L at We Love to Roleplay.  These prices are only for the duration of the event.

#518 Summertime is always the best of what might be

Today I bring you a new main store release from DE Designs, plus goodies from Uber, Shiny Shabby, N21 and The Aloha Fair.

My dress from DE Designs comes in a hud controlled fatpack or singly in a range of solid colours and patterns, all of which come with a hud giving you 13 options to texture the sash.  My shoes from Reign are available at N21 and come with two huds - one in the Reign palette, the other in the Blueberry palette, both of which are very extensive, making it so easy to mix and match. 

My Catwa applier is by DeeTaleZ at Uber - the applier is made for the Cami head, but you get an add-on in the demo pack with lots of options to help it work with the Jessica head, as I have done here.  I have used the Catwa blush and lip colours.  

My beach scene is from Image Essentials for The Aloha Fair.  It comes with a selection of poses, I am showing two - the bag in the first pic is a prop from the set.

#487 Don't threaten me with love, baby...

.....let's just go walking in the rain - Billie Holiday

ZZ was doing some exploring today and found herself on this rainy city sim, realised she had no jacket with her and had to phone a friend to come and rescue her before the rain ruined her new tank from DE Designs.  It comes in a selection of plains and patterns of which I have shown just a few.  I just love the criss cross detailing - I am sure there is a better word but it's late here and my brain is only about 27% awake, so criss crossing it is.

I am in love with this new hair from KoKoLoReS, which will be available at the next Hairology which opens on the 10th.  ZZ is wearing the balayage hud.  In case you have not heard the word before (as I hadn't till I got this hair pack), it is French and means to sweep or paint. This gives it a more natural sun-kissed look which I really like, very gentle soft waves.  Other huds are available if you prefer them but I really love this look, and with any of Sisch's huds, you get a fantastic selection of colours.

#483 There are always flowers for those that want to see them

Henri Matisse

My dress is new from DE Designs and as with everything Doc Eldritch makes, it is beautiful made and a joy to wear.  I always love Doc's textures but particularly like it when he gives us a choice of plains or patterns to choose from as he has done with this dress - I have shown you a couple of the gorgeous  floral patterns.  As always, this dress comes in a multitude of fits, so you are sure to find something that works for you.

My hair is from the lovely Sisch Firecaster for the new round of The Season's Story.  It is available in a variety of huds, all containing a generous 30 colour choices.

 I am very happy, after a very long search, to have finally found eyes I love, and they are from a totally new-to-me designer, Kendra Parfort, for her store Avi Glam.  They have a selection of different eyes, all equally beautiful and just 49L a pair, or you can buy fatpacks.  What is particularly exciting to me as a blogger who changes her eyes in pretty much every post is that the fatpacks are hud operated, so just one set of eyes to fit to your mesh head and you are done.  I went for the Celestial range Arctic pack of the for this post, and this comes with an absolutely gorgeous selection of eyes on the blue spectrum in 3 size choices.  In my next post I will be wearing eyes from the same range but the Nature pack and you can pretty much expect these to be in all my blog posts for the foreseeable future.
