Today's outfit consists of new goodies from various events and weekly specials. My skin is another new release for  .::WoW Skins::. and will be available at The Big Show from 6th December.  My hair is new from adoness, for Genre and includes the shaved base, which call me weird, but I think it is really pretty with its lace effect.

 My outfit from LivGlam is part of Steals and Deals, and comes with a hud giving you 3 texture choices, the others being black and red.  There is also a sister outfit giving you a further 3 textures to choose from.  My boots are also from LivGlam and are available, along with two pairs of shoes, at the current round of WEIB   They come with a hud giving you a choice of 31 pantones.

Valentina & Mata Hari

Today I am wearing a beautiful new gown from Pure Poison - as a member of their VIP group you get a 50% discount on one colour of all new releases, and 20% discount on other colours. It is a very elegant and I love the diamond heart detailing on the back.  

The gown completely covered my shoes, so I uncovered them to take a pic.  I will be honest, despite not being able to survive without my SLink hands, flat and medium feet, I have been slow warming to the high feet, as practically all other add ons I have tried for them just look somehow clumsy and unwieldy to me.  Not so with these shoes from Sax Shepherd Designs, they fit like a dream and look even better. I can't actually work out what is different about them, but whatever it is, I love them.  I am also wearing a necklace, ring and earring set from Sax Shepherd Designs which are also beautifully crafted.  Both shoes and jewels come with a hud allowing you to customise your items in many different ways.

What I learned with this post:  never to use a black background against bare skin!  This is one blog post where I really wish I used PS.

Riding over Blogger Block Bridge

I have been suffering my first real dose of "bloggers block" this last week, not helped by another major texture problem (coming and going out of focus) that is driving me nuts when trying to take photos.  Anyway, here is a quick post on a jacket by a new (to me) designer.  Not doing much blah blah on this post, because I am working on a Strawberry Singh meme and want to get this one posted.

More Horrorfest

“I'd rather wear jewels in my hair than anywhere else. The face should have the advantage of this brilliance" - Hedy Lamarr 

Today's post is another featuring goodies from Horrorfest.  I love the Keystone "witchy jewels" which adorn my forehead, and come with a texture change hud.  The dress from LouLou fits really well and comes in both the skully version shown here, and a blood spattered one.  And the final Horrorfest item is the pendant - there are many to choose from but I of course have gone for the batty one.

My hair is one of the gifts from Alice Project for their "Halloween Massacre" series - they are giving a free hairstyle every day until October 31st, each of which come in 5 blood spattered colours. In addition, on 3 days there are styles limited to VIP group members.

I'd like a dash of colour with my autumn please

““I'm so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers” 
L.M. Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables

I went along to the Boho Culture Fair today, but didn't have much spending money (having spent my clothing allowance on gorgeous shoes - shown below!) so just picked up this hair from MINA, and some dollarbies and Freebies.  The hair has texture change huds for both the hair and the headband.

My dress is new from Shey and gives you 10 different texture choices via hud - below I have shown you all except one, which is a bright yellow with dotty hemline.

The shoes are a SLink add-on from KoiKoi - a "new to me" creator - and are absolutely gorgeous. Featuring rich deep colours and excellent texturing, they also come with a hud, so if you buy the fatpack as I did (of course!) you can change the shoe, heel and trim to any combination you fancy from this colour palette.

The poses from Eternal Dream are currently on sale at the Falling Leaves Cart Sale  there are two packs, one for 50L and one for 100L

ZsaZsa or Medusa?

Today's post comes almost entirely from Horrorfest.   My headpiece is one of many stunning headpieces from GSpot.  From a distance it looks really pretty, but when you come closer you see all the snakes wrapping around it -  in my view, the snakes make it no less pretty, and definitely add character :).

The dress is by SAKIDE, and comes in black and this wine colour - you also get a collar, which I have not shown here, and two versions of the dress - the second does not have the lower skirt so becomes a mini dress.  The texturing is beautifully done, making the fabric look very rich.  

My pumps are from The Little Bat for Horrorfest.  The final Horrorfest goodie is the grave, complete with bats flying overhead - I am a bit jealous, I LOVE bats, and would prefer them to be flying round my rl head :).

My skin is a new group gift from Glam Affair which was released with perfect timing when I was struggling to find a skin for this shoot.  I rarely wear even remotely pale skins, but I have enjoyed wearing something different for my Horrorfest posts.  

As I have no appliers for this skin, I couldn't wear my SLink hands (hence no close ups) but thanks to Gidge on Plurk I found out about the SLink mesh nails which you can use with appliers, so that is what I have used, this time with the pointed nail option.
