Ok so remember when you were new? when outfits were worn straight out of the box – and yes that still does happen, and I as much as the next person do it, but shhh I am telling a story :P.                                                                                                                                                              But then we grow and adapt, and we start to see things for their pieces as much as the whole story created by the designer. Or even if we don’t break down the pieces, we see more than one or two possibilities emerge. Often that is what blogging is for, to share an idea, to show the possibilities. Even if a design has appeared before your eyes in the past, someone may just captivate you with their way.

That is why many of us blog, I know it is why I do, and I know it is why my friends do. Often time restraints and backed up inventory cause us to show as is, add some accessories and done.  It may be more about the skin, or hair, or shoes. So many things can come up, and there are often not enough hours in the day…but try as we may, we want you to see what we see. That spark of interest that made us want to jump up on a pose stand and take numerous shots, crop, splice and dice and then present them however we can, so that you may just be excited with us.

I love those days, the days when an item just sings for attention and is well deserved of it. I love when a release makes me be a better blogger, and want to excel in presentation, there are releases where I know myself I have leveled up as we say, because I have just been so enthusiastic by the items.

I personally think that every single blogger out there does an incredible job, if their motivation is to share, to develop and to enhance not only your inventory lol,  but their skillset, then we are lucky and blessed to share their journey. Whether they talk lots like me, or only link and credit…whether they add lyrics or poetry, or each pic has a short summary. All in all we are lucky to have a glimpse into their creative mind, and I treasure that as much as the next person.

Now about my pic, because honestly I didn’t even intend that to go where it went ramble wise, but am glad it did.

The skin actually started it all, it is a newish release by YS & YS and even though I covered up much of the face on the left, it does feature both red or blonde brows and hairbases. The skin is also beautifully freckle adorned, but in a true fair skinned way that is just lovely. The make up on the skins is a feature more of the lips and  eye make up, so the skin having freckles is not a hindrance in anyway in that area. The brows are fantastic in the red and blonde, but I am totally boning on the red.

The dress I am wearing is a knockout, not only are the colours and fabric divine, but you actually get both with purchase. The dress comes with bra and panties, and it is an incredibly sexy look, straight out of the box.  It does also come with its own pair of fishnets, but I opted for the Allure girdle and stockings from Maitreya, wearing one of the natural pairs rather than true black, to give a softer effect. This is totally the kind of look you can imagine on a working girl in either a smoke filled tavern in france, or some back street opium den in asia. The outfit actually reminded me a lot of the old show China Beach, and Marg Helgenberger, mind you it was the Dana chick every guy I know was totally in lust with.

For the hair I went with a style from I love Olive, for both in fact, and actually had originally planned to wear the one on the right in red for the pic on the left…but then tp’d over and grabbed this Sophie style that totally rocked it. The dress reminded me of a wrap dress, so going with a more mature and dignified look I added some trousers – I love that fri.day calls them trousers – and the cashmere turtleneck from Boom. It brings so many women to mind this look, from the North-shore to Soho and beyond.

Either way you wear it, or whatever spin you put on the dresses or dresses like it yourself, make it the most fun and something that may just inspire you to jump on a pose-stand of your own and take pics – don’t forget to share them though :).

Usually I end with the bikini’s, don’t know how I ended up in reverse order this time, but seems to be the route I have been taking all week. Maybe I needed a tan first, who knows.

The kini from Cynful, as are all the clothing pieces today, actually gives two bottoms options. The string bikini or boyshorts look. Now while the boyshorts would be more preferable for those not wanting to reveal too much, we are talking Cynful here, so of course they have as much on display as they could lol. Luckily the Jade skin by TULI has the perfect derriere for such a display. The hair I am wearing is from Magika, and the style with the over the shoulder look, is perfect for swimwear, neat and pulled back, and then out of the way so you can get that all over back tan.

While I really like the pulled back and behind the ear look of the first one, the rockabilly sprayed with more product than should ever be allowed upswept bangs look of the next one is all love. The overalls all in one look on the left is great, easy to wear, add some jewelry, in this case from Ala Mood and you are off for a night out. Cynful does a lot of great denim, and these capris are fun too. Totally giving me the chance to show off my new thongs, these are from Addictia. They call them flip flops, I call them thongs. They are an all in one fake feet system. As you can see from the top pic you can choose to wear with the thongs or without, then also with beads and flowers or without.

Now these come in only three colour choices, pink, blue, or purple. Personally I would love to see white available, as it would go with more, as well as the ability to chose with or without the flower, because sometimes you just want beads. Maybe one day those options will come, there are also plug ins available for nail polishes and tattoos you can buy separate, for me it was all about the all in one. The other thing is that the big toe is big, and for me, I have a size ten foot RL, so delicate feet are more alien to me, so it was not a deal breaker, but there are demos, so be sure you look at them closely, so that you know you can live with it.

The other Jewelry I am wearing in the second pic, is also from AlaMood Boutique, it also matched perfectly to the dottsie top I am wearing, so cute and fun to wear.  Lastly in Exile hair this time, these fab pigtail do’s are so fun, the pixie bangs on the left are still a fast favourite, I cannot get enough of the styles being created with those. The soft curls of the second look make you just crave to see it down. Very very short is the theme for the skirts in this pic, I am torn between the highwaist and the mini, as both have their pluses. The tops are a new sculpted fit top, easy enough to resize if needed, and a easy throw on wear.

The jewelry in this pic is from Gangked, incredibly over the top pieces that are fun to wear, and have very telling names, the one on the right had me awwwing and sad at the thought of it. Mercy heels by Orange Creations come in so many fab colours, that it was easy to match a pair to each look, and the skin tinting is a breeze with so many presets to choose from.

It is in the Melody

I love being able to modify stuff, especially when an idea you have works out. That was the case with todays look.

With the release of the halter tops by Fri.day had me wanting to stretch and try my hand at modifying one into more of a babydoll dress. Because of the flared out style of the sculptie, it was easy to do so, able to cover the hips and bottom with ease. Not wanting to go too long, because that would have changed the way it would have moved. This length allows it to not move around too much and take away from the look.

The only thing left to do is make sure that I was covered underneath, so I used the bodysuit from a previous release as a modesty layer. The hairstyles I am wearing are both from Hair Solutions, lately Kia has been releasing new hair at a much faster pace than the past, which is always great to see. The boots are the latest from Adam n Eve, booty bay boots, if you WoW you snickered like me I am sure. The boots come in either plaid or plain as a choice, and with much surprise they are mod, so even though red on the right, they were a little brighter than the rest of the red worn, so a quick change to the luminosity in edit tint, and voila, more matchy matchy.

Showing more of the beautiful Jade makes ups by TULI, this skin is so soft and pretty, but as usual Tuli has made sure that many different styles are catered to with the make ups, from soft and delicate to hard core rock girl, you have it covered. It is always great to have as many options as possible, without having too many of a particular style.

Market Day
Sasy Scarborough

Aba

So I was all ready to do a mammoth post, you know those days when you want to crunch as much out as you can. But then I got an IM for a link to You-tube, and it was very interesting. I then got distracted by other clips by the same creator, one thing lead to a bucket of tears and that was me done.

I have only seen the trailer, but I did watch an interview with the producer of the documentary, and that had me so moved all on it’s own. It was actually an interview done by an SL Resident, and it was his IM that lead me to it in the first place. I would love to be able to see The way we get by. It looks to be such an emotional film, but I would have to see it at home because the blubbering would be too much for the public.

The vintage looking blazer was a find at beetlebones and is a freebie no less, it was the perfect choice to wear over the beautiful dress from SALT, as I knew as soon as I saw it how I wanted to wear it, other than out of the box which is just lovely as is. The bag is another freebie from Berries Inc, seems the b’s are coming up with all the goods this week. The bag comes with three different versions, and is the perfect strolling market day bag, or off to the beach/pool for a swim and sun-bake. It has all the necessities built in.

Red Sole

I totally cheated today, you may wonder how and with whom? but it was all innocent and Mel knows all about it.

Fact is that recently Baiastice released some menswear, and while this is not all of it, it is a great taste for both sexes. The male in the pics is actually just me in Mel’s shape wearing the Daniel skin from LAQ. The hair the male me is wearing is also part of the Daniel skin pack, as well as a huge amount of facial hair options. Very rugged and chiseled features on the face, he is a looker for sure. Baiastice always provides beautiful textures and lovely quality whether mens or womens wear. It also always has that Euro influence that is probably more visible in the mens.  The first look can be regarded as an afternoon early evening, maybe into the night look.

The second look is all evening, and scrumptious. I really love the snugglyness of the sweater, and that dress, Sissy really knows how to leather up a lady. The Kristel dress comes in many colours, but this deep red is just gorgeous, and went so well with the Mercy shoes by Orange Creations. These shoes have not only fabulous colours and straps, but the soles can be either red, black or tan which is sometimes so sexy or can really enhance a look. Easy to use HUD for skin tone matching and nails. I love a red sole and was actually reading an article about Loubouton only yesterday, one of the things that I found amazing in that article was the fact that his biggest customer with over 6000 pairs of his shoes is Danielle Steele. Imagine what she could do for the SL shoe economy if she became a resident.

I am liking my little door for the time being, so I think that will be used a tad more, who knows though, I tend to change mid post as you have seen lol. The poses I am using today are from aDORKable who are about to celebrate ONE YEAR… I am so excited for them, as they are an amazing team, and have such passion for what they do. So Happy Happy One Year Dorks <3

I really enjoyed doing a post with both skins from the same place, the idea of a couple having the same skin creator is kind of nifty. Daniel is definitely a looker too, he reminds me of Smith from Sex and the City. The Aline skin is so much fuller in the lips and that really works for me, it is nice to have that change without touching my shape. I also love the eyebrow gems as they fit the arch of the brow of this skin like a dream, again no changes made, I just double click wore.
