Takes a Bow

So with all my watching of I Love Lucy reruns the past week, I have been loving all the polka dots and bows, and lovely vintage looks. This dress which is the SySy release for My Attic, is a lovely take on that kind of look, and so adorable in either the solids options, or the striped. I decided to go with the solid, so that I could keep the stripes for my nails, as well as my new tri colour wedges from Slink.

The dress is so lovely, and has a scalloped hemline with a great waisted cinched in and topped with a bow. The nails I am wearing are very similar and were partly inspired by the dresses as well as the reaction to previous lingerie inspired nails I did with bows a few weeks ago, they are also being sold in a special combination pack at My Attic. The timing couldn’t be more perfect, as these shoes just released come with three wedge colour options, as well as almost unlimited options if you go with the multipack. The shoes come with three coloured straps as a single pair, but definitely consider the multipack as you can see with the HUD I showed, you get to just choose from each row/strap and make up as many combinations as you can.

I have also included a picture showing that these shoes have been textured with specular mapping. This is a new materials project that LL just launched in the past week. The specular mapping adds more detailing to the items, without actually adding more geometry, which keeps the land impact low, but the detailing high. If you have the latest SL Viewer, you can see the difference by turning on ‘Advanced Lighting Model” you do not have to turn on shadows, but it is really lovely the effect you can get overall, and I am looking forward to seeing this used in such a lovely subtle way by more creators.

The skin and hair I am wearing are from Ploom, and so adorable as they both have an ocean like theme. The Kat hair has a starfish acccessory option (not worn) and the skin is make up inspired by starfish as well. I really love Gia, the skin, as it has such a beautiful pouty look, and smoldering eyes. As I said previously I love the different takes on the theme Escape that is this sessions theme for My Attic, some went beachy and tropical, and others went stripes and jail like, it has all been really enjoyable to see.

Only a few days left to get these great My Attic releases, so don’t delay.
