Splash of Colour

I don’t usually do “full body” shots. I’m a waist up kinda gal. Yeah I dunno…I just find that I can’t take a good photo but I really love this Annie Pencil Skirt (The Secret Store), the BOOM bold cuffs, and these white Sofia Peeptoe (Gos Boutique), aaaaaaaaaand this coldlogic vale sweater.

Yeah, I don’t have anything else to say so….PRETTY PICTURE!

Glam Affair Skin Appliers

I honestly didn’t think I would wear my LOLA Tangos very often but now that Glam Affair has released a skin applier (for the new skin tones), I think I might be showing them off a lil more. Whether mesh/prim boobs are a fad or not, it still is great to see some of the top skin and clothing designers embrace them.

Clicks, Pops & White Noise

I went to L’Accessories today. For the first time. As you can probably tell, I don’t accessorize much unless it’s like…a hat or sunglasses. And guess what I got! Sunglasses. These AWESOME Begas Shades from BOOM are available during this round (which ends on 15th btw). They are 100% original mesh and come in a variety of colours. I’m going to go out on a limb here and say these were inspired by Elvis, which could be deemed ‘retro’. Speaking of retro, Standby Inc.‘s retro headphones from The Arcade are a perfect accessory for these shades (Pretty good segue, right?) These headphones are available in a TON of different colours and come with three poses (3 for women, 3 for men) so get ready to spend a bunch of $L playing the gacha trying to get them all.

Raid My Closet Challenge – Post One

Last year there was this Flickr challenge called Raid Your Closet. The gist of it is that you can’t buy ANYTHING new for these pics, just using items already purchased in your inventory. You have to wear something different for each look. You can have “exceptions” like the same skin or shape, etc. They just have to be stated on the first post like this one. My “basics” are going to stay the same (shape, skin, eyes, lashes). This is a five post challenge, every Monday for the month of Octobe (Yes I know I missed the first Monday) so here is my first Raid Your Closet post.

This outfit is comprised of my favourites, like the Pause hair from Analog Dog, the cross from -tb- and the low rise faded jeans from fri.day that were a FLF special. And the boots! Oh My Gah! Remember when they were THE thing to have? Ok, maybe you don’t but I do! Everyone and their mother had these boots from DRD and wore them all the time, no matter the outfit. They are still one of my favourite pair of boot and I kind of hope they will come out in mesh one day.

The plaid shirt/sweater combo is from COCO. I believe it was a free gift, one that I’ve never worn. Honest. It’s been sitting in my inventory, unused since the day I got it. Chances are this will be the only time I wear it as well because, well, you know how prim clothing is. All stiff and doesn’t move with you like mesh does. Although it makes for great layering with an Everyday Tank from BOOM.

If you have flickr or plurk or a blog, check out SL Blogger Support for all the details.

Silent Wings for silent screams

I surprised myself by only purchasing one style from Exile at this year’s Hair Fair. Silent Wings is a messy pigtail style that comes with optional feather attachments. The hair bands are colour changeable (13 options) as well as the feathers with 7 styles. There’s a few other hairstyles from Exile including a male style.
