    When I saw the picture of this sweater, I tp’d so fast to Sn@tch I actually forgot to stand up first, and landed in a sitting position. I did not care though, and quickly TP’d Whimsy and Newdoll to join me. Not only was it already squeel worthy to look at, but then I found it wasn’t in the newness section but on the right side of the store in a weekly discount special thing-a-majiggy. So the whole pack was some ridiculously low price, and seeing as Sn@tch is remarkable in inexpensive fashion, you will be overjoyed as I was. The sweater actually comes with sleeves, but I prefered it without. I love the colours that it comes in, and all all layers, so it is wonderful for layering if you want to wear with a blazer or something.

    The colours and fit worked well with the great leather skinny pants from Maitreya. Especially the kaki sweater with the oil pants…so beautiful. Starting today was the annual Pose Fair. The adorable lunchboxes I am holding in the post are by Elymode and are part of her release for this event. Elysium always does great things for Pose Fair – she does great things in general – but she has so much fun with quirky ideas and often very naughty ones. The pure part of her release this year are these, and they are adorable. In RL I used to use these as a handbag, and they are lots of fun and easy to find things in. There are different poses for them, and they all come with mirrored options. There are gatcha ones, with rares, as well as a basic set, the basic one I tinted a darker grey to go with my outfit. So make sure you run over and grab yourself some of those.

    The skin I am wearing is another Skin Fair 2013 skin release by Belleza. Mya is the name of it, and I am sure that is just short for ‘ You will gaze upon yourself for hours until you realise you should actually get on your VR studio and take pics, because the face is so pretty. Mmhmm that is exactly what it is short for I swear. The skin has different brow options, 5 make up types and the eyeshadows are creamy and so pretty in the colours and the smokey is awesome. Then you also get a slew of lipstick options so you can mix it all about – no hokey pokey included. Get thee to the Fair and demo demo demo.

    I always feel like I am sending coded love messages when I wear Exile Hair, the names which are usually always songs, when written altogether often seem to be a whole story. All three styles today are just lovely when it comes to showing off the beautiful new dress from Zaara. This dress has a prints pack and a plains pack, but honestly I see nothing plain about them. The dress is a delight, and I would even go so far as to say that the white would be wedding worthy under the right setting. Bare foot on the beach with just your closest of friends on some tropical island, oh look theres one just a sim or two over —-> hee hee. We really do not suffer for great tropical locations in Second Life.

    The prints pack is also a delight, and the soft roses on the sheer fabric that cascades down the back of this dress, are just wonderful….fantastic use of materials in mesh too, because even though it is sheer, it is only sheer at the bottom which means you will not have any issues with alpha in your hair, unless of course your hair goes down past the waist band tie.

    The ribbon like tie is also just charming, and even if not walking down a sandy aisle, it definitely has date night all over it. The beautiful shoes worn with are the Cruel shoes by JD, these are at this months collabor88 and come in a lovely range of colours that actually compliment the dress colours really well. The fat pack has a huge amount of options, not only can you of course skin match to many preset skins from brands as well as a great RGB and Colour Screen option, but then you have a shoes setting page, which allows for changing of colours, the wedge colours, and the different lace options, which you can also colour and hide and show. I will say I do prefer them without the lace, but there may be a time when the lace works with a different look. Definitely worth trying the demo of, and YAY for the grey colour.

    The skin is the wonderful Elyse skin by Tuli that is at Skin Fair 2013. There are two separate packs, one is Elementary my dears, and the other is Sultry. The super stunner Whimsy Winx is going to show you Sultry over on her blog today HERE. We decided that seeing we were both doing the same skin to split it between us, that way you get to visit two locations, fun fun fun. The lipsticks Whimsy also shot, because I was having rezzing issues, so just as well we were shooting the same skin after all, or I’d have had to wait a few hours for Sl to not be silly. The skins come with 4 brow options, on the skins, and five eyeshadows also on the skins, as well as dimples options, included on the skin – oh Tuli how I love thee. The lipsticks are on tattoo layers boxed in with the packs, so they are chock full of great colours in matte and gloss versions. So get on over there and demo demo demo Elyse, she is just beautiful.

    In Second Life, I have always loved the chance to wear white as much as we can, without the chance of dirt and/or creases ruining a look. When we only had system layers and then sculpts, this often didn’t work out so well, with the shading needed to actually give the clothing depth, it could often look more grey than white – much as I love grey, when you want it to be white, it should be white. Mesh has given us this opportunity now, and I for one am over the moon.

    The gorgeous oversized shirt by Ison is at this months Collabor88, and honestly if you don’t get them all you will only find yourself hunting it down after the event, and it may just cost you more…so get over there while you can. The white looks soft and so comfortable to wear, I could honestly just lay back and bask in its glory all day. The adorable cuffed jean shorts also in white, but One Bad Pixel completed the look of this casual day wear.

    The flat clutch I am holding is by Inside Lab, a newish store that has been making all sorts of things, skins, clothes, accessories. The Clutch is an oversized envelope clutch and the white was just perfect. Throwing on my Slink thongs over my Slink feet and I could spend the day outdoors enjoying the Aussie sun.

    The adorable skin I am wearing is by Amacci and is featured at Skin Fair 2013, this is Rayna and she is so pretty. The skin comes with all sorts of make ups, as well as tattoo lips – not shown – and for the first time for me to see these, lip corner tattoos that give a little lift to the outside of your mouth, nice feature. Lots of breast shading options in lots of sizes. On my shape the lipsticks show up differently, and they look heavy, like thick lipstick was applied, thats how it looks to me though, so make sure you demo demo demo and see for yourself. I do look forward to more Amacci skins, she always does a really attractive face and body, and I look forward to the next.

    I am wearing another of the Exxess styles, this one comes with a hud for changing the texture on the headband, all the colours are deep though, I do wish there had been a lighter option, but the hair is just gorgeous.

    This dress is just beautiful, it gives off a lovely 60’s kind of vibe, and the bow detail is just so adorable. The colours are so pretty and this one is definitely a firm favourite. I really like how it goes well with the cairo boots from Celoe, because of the lovely soft brown.  Other lovely brown , is my hair. I had to go over to Exxess earlier today for Hair Fair business, and this hair just jumped out at me, as well as a few others I purchased. One thing that did upset me though, was that not all hairstyles fit me, I don’t usually have to wear alphas and with these I do. Make sure if you are trying demos, you take off any hairbases because you wont see if it fits properly or not. They are rigged mesh, but I really live this style, so definitely try the demos and see if the hair fits you. I dragged Whimsy over, and had to drag her back out of there, so many great styles.

    The skin I am wearing is by Pink Fuel, this is the Alyx skin which is a delightful face, and has such great lipstick options. It has a young face, but not so young that it isn’t wearable  as a go to skin. The body is beautiful and fit looking, with beautiful make up choices for the eyes, and even 2 options on the eye make up, allowing for different sized eyes to get the most out of the skin. Many Brow and no brow options, and I am really glad the eyeshadows are on the skin itself, because I am not always a fan of wearing lots of tattoo layers.

    Yes, obviously from my title I am watching Grease as I type this up. It probably came about because of these gorgeous new jackets from Toki Doki, the Haru jacket is great. I think that if I had to pick a jacket to wear as a group of girls kind of thing, this one would definitely be a contender. The jacket is available in 6 floral prints and one coral, I am not sure why there is only one solid, but as an orange/coral kind of girl, I am all for it.

    The jacket also looks fabulous with the recent release of the footless leggings from Maitreya, these cordlike leggings are pure win, and they even have a pinched version, which is their way of saying ‘ comes in at the waist, so that you can fit clothes over them better ‘ which is just wonderful, because often it is hard to find separates that work well with each other  especially if made by different creators.

    The hair I am wearing is from Analog Dog, the .B department, and it is called Five. I really love this style, it is just so cute and loaded with attitude all at the same time.

    The skin I am wearing is the new Glam Affair skin release for Skin Fair 2013 called Zara. The skin comes with beautiful make up options, and I love how when the make up is light for day time, you almost look more youthful than in the evening like make up. You also get red, dark and blonde brows, as well as hairbases in the same colours. Lots of beautiful choices of make up to take you all through the day. So demo demo demo. I am wearing the America tone.

    First some announcements. Erratic is having a huge sale 50% off at their NEW main-store, so be sure to check that out. Then there are some new changes to SL, first off with particles and then some AO changes… this is scripty kind of info, and you can read more about it on the Nalates Things & Stuff blog HERE. Hair Fair Designer Applications are open now, and will be up until 31st of March, don’t delay on getting those in. Another bit of news, this is outside of Second Life, but a wonderful project by the talented Maddox Dupont of KMADD…he has started a website for health and well-being called Benevolent Ways, so if you are into good things, and treating yourself right, make sure and check it out.

    Now onto the post. The skin I am wearing is a Skin Fair release Vanina, by Anymore skins. The skin is lovely, and comes with different facial features. The first being freckles, then teeth and then an open mouth option that allows for you to wear prim teeth and actually have some shading for an opening (not shown). They all come with freckles options, and cleavage on and regular shading options. The skin is very lovely and a great default go to skin, so demo demo demo.  You get a better look at the body with the pics of the new Jolie lingerie by Izzies. This is a stunning lingerie set, with many layers and you can wear with or without the garters option.

    Clothing on, I am wearing the divine memoires pencil skirt by Indyra Originals. This skirt is really stunning and looks great with loose tops or tight fitting tucked in looks. The tops I went with are the recently released Dakota top by Maitreya, I had shown it with the tiger print in the past, but this chiffon version is beautiful. Then for the tucked in look I went with the much older turtleneck savoir top also from Maitreya. This is often a go to for me for this kind of look, and always stands up time wise.

    The other lovely top is the Elyse top by Tee*fy, this is available at Collabor88 and comes in some really pretty colours. The hair I am wearing is also at Collabor88 from LaViere the other brand the talented Azure Electricteeth owns. I really like the softness of this hair, it is a bob length but has a somewhat older style look to it.

    The boots I am wearing are also new and really beautiful leather ankle boots. The reptile leather is really great, and there are three pairs that have a soft colour block look with them being on special at a reduced VIP price for the first month, so be sure to check those out. The boots come with a HUD to make resizing a breeze if needed on the unrigged versions, and they also come in standard sizing sizes as well, so you are well and truly catered to.

    The accessories worn around the neck are the lovely bow scarf by Yummy, that I have actually tinted black, but is available in many beautiful soft colours as well as floral, and the charming vintage camera necklace that has a diamond where the lens would be, so pretty and I did mod the bow on that to red to match my look, but it has a scripted menu option for softer colours. Both of those items are at Collabor88 as well.

    Deck Shoes

    Today I am Gogo, well partially at least, I should have perhaps worn pink and had blonde hair to be more like her awesome self. But all joking aside – the part about being her, not her awesomeness – I am wearing the NEW Gogo skin by Deetalez. This is a release only available at Skin Fair 2013 and the skin is just lovely. I really like the maturity of the face, the body details, and the tone options are all really nice. The skins also come with tango appliers which are really well done.

    The skin also includes four lip options, black, brown and red brow options, covers for nails so you can wear prim ones, freckles in different strengths. There are also 5 make up options and cleavage adjustment layers. Now the only thing that I didn’t like, is that the skin is not shaved as default, but does include a layer to cover that. Personally I think that with all the low cut clothing, it is better to have shaved as default, then if you must have hair down there, then you can use one of the layer options…otherwise you are using a layer unnecessarily.

    Make sure you check it out for yourself and demo demo demo. The pants I am wearing in this post are from collabor88 and a release by Elate, I am loving the items coming from Elate since her return to SL, and these pants are just so lovely to wear. They come with flats and heels options, and the colours – shown in the pic – are just wonderful.

    I really fell in love with the Deck shoes by G*filed, not only because they are perfect flats, but also because the options are amazing, it is just deciding which pack you will want, if not all, because the colours are great. Then the hud allows you to change so many parts of them so you end up with so many looks. So the whole look ended up all nautical red, white and blue like. The top is from Eaters Coma, and is a slashed tank which just brings lots of focus to the body, and is really fun to wear.

    The hair I am wearing is by .B which is a line from Analog Dog, which has been releasing some great mesh hair lately, and this rockabilly type braid is just fun and sexy, and the hairbases are free in the store, but also come included in the style.

    I used a picture from the Second Life Stock Images Flickr Group for my background, funnily enough though it was one of mine.

    First off Hair Fair Designer applications have started, so for those that have been waiting go HERE…and sign up for July. There are already over 60 stores signed up, so if you know anyone that has been making hair that was wanting to be part of it, let them know.

    Now about another fair, Skin Fair 2013 as I have been posting on this past week, has got some great mesh heads featured. This one is by Snow Rabbit, which is a darling youthful face that has incredible animated facial movement that makes you just fall in love with your avatar all over again.  Now the lovely and oh so cute GoGo did a post on this hybrid avatar at her JuicyBomb blog, so you can see the great video she did of the animated face.

    The Nea hybrid comes with the skin, which has a cleavage option, and is very very cleavagey for the sweet and innocent looking face. It also includes two HUDs, one is a mini hud that allows for the basic of functions, and the other is more detailed. The HUDs activate drop down menus for the different make-ups and other features of the head. You can also control whether the eyes are open or closed, and whether the mouth stays closed or goes through the animations. There is also a tears option that has a single tear run down the face and is very moving.

    The head has a full bright option that is not going to work too well if you go through the hours of the day with your light settings, but you can turn that off by wearing the light in the folder, then using the light button on the hud and turning it off. The ears are also separate, and one ear actually was inside the head for me, but as it is a separate modifiable attachment, i was able to edit linked parts and move that one ear out. This also makes it easier if you need to remove your ears for closer to the head hairstyles.

    The head unlike others I have worn, also includes the neck and collarbone area of the body. This may cause some issues depending on the kind of clothing you wear, but if you are a mesh wearer you should be fine, just try some of your favourite clothes with the demo so you are sure before purchase.

    The wonderful location I am shooting in today is the Treehouse Cottage that is by Trompe Loeil for Collabor88 this month. The tree house not only is a stunning build, but it even comes with the tree. The inside has a spacious enough living area, and then two loft like areas which I used as an office space and bedroom. All of the furniture pieces are by different creators, and most can also be found at Collabor88. The other Trompe Loeil items are the chandeliers made with mason jars, and they are just amazing. You will want them in every home.

    The bedroom set is by Pilot, and other than the colours and style being just perfect, I was very happy to find that it was modifiable size wise, so I was able to bring it down to a more satisfactory and realistic size. While the lamp beside it I made larger as a floor lamp.

    The clothing I am wearing is by One Bad Pixel, and it was a surprise to see that they were doing a release at all, with one of the partners traveling the world. The sweater blouses come with a hud that allows for change of shirt colour, belt colour and striped shirts options…that is a lot of bang for your buck. The sweaters are available in either cable knit or chenille and I showed both in the main pic so you can see which one you prefer. I am wearing them with their new bootcut  jeans, and if you already loved their past jeans releases, these are just more to love. They fit perfectly over the wedge heel shoes by G*field that also have hud options for the trim and heels base, and I made them navy trim to tie in with all that blue.

    Lastly the incredible floral headpiece by BOOM that is at The Arcade as a gatcha item you must get, this thing is just stunning. I can see needing a few hits at this, as the colours available are superb, and you will just want to give them as gifts as well.

    Bodowa means …

    Anais

    Anais 2

    Anais Tones

    More Skin Fair delights with the Anais skin by Glance. I have put this one and taken it off so many times in the last few weeks, just besotted by how it transformed my usual shape into something else. But then the longer I look, the more I see me in there as well. Very good work by the skin creator of Glance to achieve such a mix of the two. For those that have pined over Glance skins in the past, and been secretly longing for more tones, this release starts the New Year of Glance tones, literally.

    The New skin tones will be named after months of the year, and with the lighter more Caucasian tones being the first 6 months and the more ethnic in the last 6. I did a mix for the main shot, and used August for the face shots. You get 10 shadows, 10 glossy lips and 10 matte lips with the skin, as well as no brows, black brows and brown brows. Then of course on top of that you get cleavage options, and these skins also will have appliers available to purchase, so this is definitely a great change for Glance.

    The perfect dress for me for this post is the new Bodowa dress by SySy’s. I love the split colours, the shape and the slinky kind of feel it gives when worn. The dress is available in three different types, black/colour, white/colour and combo’s…I am showing my faves of each, but honestly, the combos are my personal favourite pack.

    The jewellery worn today are a mix of old and new. The old being the stone chip set from Logo, in the aquamarine. This is actually my birth stone, so I purposely wore it, and just loved the set instantly when it was released because it has that almost shell like look to it that is so popular down here. The Atiriya set is from Zaara, and comes with silver or gold options, the gold of course working so well in the onyx with the black and gold dress. Lastly the Copacetic Tallulah Necklace, of which not only is it a beautiful necklace, and comes in all different strand types – I am wearing the grouped – by Gossamer Jewellery at C88, but the name is just a hoot and a half.
