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.

At Home in Santana

At the moment I'm all about my new SL home - loving the location and the extra prims! So as I fight may way through my to-be-blogged folder you'll be seeing a lot of it, I expect.

You'll also be seeing a lot of those Everglow poses. Still loving those!


See how far behind I am? Of course, everyone has already blogged the Ginger Boots from Shiny Things, so I should just let them go to their designated folder (Clothing - Shoes - Shiny Things) unblogged. But I have just enough OCD in me to prevent that from ever happening. What's in my blog folder gets blogged. And besides, anything as cute as these deserves yet another mention.

Today I've paired the boots with the Flower Garden dress from Rily's $1L shop. You can find this dress in many colors and several others there, all for $1L.

I have to confess I've been going a little skin crazy lately. Maybe it has something to do with being homeless and not needing to pay rent. I've never paid real prices for skin because the Eloh Elliot templates happen to fit my shape really well, so freebie skins have always done me well. But I seem to be completely addicted to LAQ. Feeling a little flush I headed over there today and demo-ed everything. After much intense scrutiny I settled on two lines, of which this is one. This lovely skin is April in Milky, and she's another natural redhead so I don't get to show off my tattooed eyebrows just yet. The hair is from Miel, it's called Sat and this is red 4.

Everglow

First, I've been remiss in posting because I was suddenly left homeless in SL and haven't had a spot to hang my hat (or change my clothes) until now. As a result, I have an inventory full of stuff that I need to get blogged! So I'm just going to throw a bunch of stuff out there and see what sticks.

I was recently invited to join the Everglow Flickr group, so I headed over to Everglow thinking I'd pick up a pose or two so I could post to the group. Well, I ultimately had to drag myself away. Fanny Willis has this way of making me love things I don't usually love in poses, like ground sits, and hands up in the air. I went just a little nuts. So all the poses in this post are Everglow poses.

I don't LOVE this skin, but I like it and could see wearing it in the right situation. It's the new group gift from Cupcakes called Dahlia. My shorts are the Stein Tailored Shorts from Whippet & Buck (worn without the upper buttoned portion) and the tank top is the nice basic white freebie from Fri.day. And, of course, I'm wearing the Zimmy flats from Shiny Things in black and white. There are only two designers in SL from whom I buy everything and anything they make, and Fallingwater Cellardoor is one. And last but not least, I've taken advantage of the $100L sale at Tiny Bird and have stocked up on hair. This one is Time To Pretend II in copper.

And now for something completely different! Still posing from Everglow (I even like that my finger shows through my hair), this dress is from Niniko and includes the white blouse and the jumper. I've matched it up with the Ilaida Mojri slippers from Zaara, the OTHER SL designer from whom I buy anything and everything. These shoes are pretty customizable, as the center part of the upper can be changed to almost any color and the little metallic detail can be silver or gold. I'm also wearing hair from Truth (Piper in Cranberry) and skin is from G&N Quality Design (Silvery Moss - I think this was a recent freebie).

Finally (I think three totally unrelated outfits in one post is enough, don't you?) here's Clio's Pandora dress. I have been waiting and waiting for Clio to put a front on this skirt, and she finally did it. You know I'm not really a gown girl, but I made an exception for this one! I even like the little hat, and I'm not usually into funny hair stuff. I paired this with my Tasha 2 skin from LAQ, jewelry from Donna Flora (Camelia), and another Truth hair (Milla in copper).

I'm also trying out some of the new lashes on the tattoo layer from Miamai. I like them!

Now I have to rush because I've just heard that LAQ has a version of their red eyebrows on the tattoo layer. My quest for great red eyebrows in SL is eternal. This alone could erase all my Viewer 2 complaints!
