PixelDolls

PixelDolls always has something interesting, so despite my assertion that I never wear gowns, here I am in another one. This is Knockout in red, and you can see that the skirt is pretty sheer. The dress comes with the fishnet stockings. I just can't resist those pretty PixelDolls textures! I'm not sure if you can even see my shoes, but I trotted out an old reliable, the Laque pumps from Storm Schmooz.



My skin here is another from Heartsick (the sales! the freebies!) This is Very Berry. The hair is the Model hair from Waka and Yuki. It was a freebie a while back and I like the pairing of lacy dress and short, modern hair. For jewelry I went with Earthstones' Karin set in the Fire Agate tone. Eyelashes are Sin Skins' tipped vanity lashes.


I keep forgetting to mention that the poses here and in the past few posts have all been from EverGlow. I went there to pick up a couple and ended up with something like 20! Normally I don't like poses with hands near the face or head, but EverGlow seems to be the exception to that rule for me.

More Kunglers

Another quickie, folks! This is the most recent group gift from Kunglers. I especially like the jeans, which have a really nice, subtle prim leg that doesn't flare too much . Very smooth. I'm wearing this with the Zimmy Flats in faded denim from the always wonderful Shiny Things. And some new bangles I picked up at the Perse sale.


My hair is another new style from Truth: Trinity. Skin is Heartsick's Long Hot Summer. My orange eyebrows from LAQ didn't quite match up with this one so I'm stuck with black. Still pretty, though!

Quick Look at Veschi

You're all going to have to forgive me. See my blogging folder is overflowing. And I have just enough OCD that I have to actually blog stuff before moving it to my actual inventory. So in the interest of speed, for the next little while no slurls. I know, bad blogger. If anyone desperately needs slurls, IM me.

In any case, I picked up Veschi's Jump Her! jump suit a while back just for the great wide-legged pants. I love that these pants are wide without being flared. Very nice. I don't much care for the top,though, so I paired it with a classic - the Isis shirt from Zaara. Shoes are the Alice Mary Janes that I picked up at Footworks.


The hair is one of my few Hair Fair buys (sorry, but I found the pickings slim this year). It's Dala from EMO-tions. And the skin is an old classic as well, Curio's Elf, which I have once again doctored with my favorite orange eyebrows from LAQ. I seriously wish more skin creators would give us eyebrow tattoo options.


Onward and upward. Who knows what I'll find in that folder next?

Back!

I ended up taking an unexpected and extended trip out of town this month. Now my blogging folder is massively over-packed and I have to hop to it! So starting right off:

I headed over to Modavia Fashion Week just at the last minute, which is good, since I only had time to buy three outfits. It's over now, but you can drop by Kunglers to pick up the Sophia dress, which is awesome. I don't really buy gowns in SL because I never wear them, but I could not resist this one.


Truth Hawks is really upsetting me these days. He will not stop making gorgeous hair! And then I have to buy it and then I don't have money for anything else. Seriously, will it ever end?! This is the most lovely Orchid (without the actual orchids) and I think it's my favorite updo ever. I'm also wearing the Cue jewelry set from Miel.

My skin is interesting. It's Mango, Mango!'s Honey Bee in pale. I almost tossed it out, actually, because I didn't like the black eyebrows and the eyes looked weird to me. But I LOVE really dark lipstick so I messed around with it. I added lashes from Sin Skins and my tattoo layer eyebrows from LAQ. The eyebrows add color to the forehead, so they won't work with every non-LAQ skin, but I think they work really well here. Voila! A skin I wasn't in love with becomes perfect. I do love that tattoo layer! Here are the pics, first the original skin and then my doctored version.





More (much more!) to come. I've got to catch up to my monster blogging folder!
