Get out there and Dance
Ok so you have to quickly dash to the credits and such because some of these things are only available until the end of today EEEEEEEEEEEK. I had no clue about this event, until I came smack/bam up to the poster promoting it at one of the stores. So when I came back online this afternoon I quickly dashed to the stores mentioned and grabbed a few goodies to post on, the 25 stores involved in the Adorable Grid Wide Sale all have an item or more out for less than 99L but the sale ends tonight so don’t miss out coz so much of it is YUM.
Ok now don’t forget to come back and read about the rest of the goodies. So the hair I am featuring in the first pic is all from Epoque, Vintage did an incredible job on those that love sleek and sofisticated styles, of course drawing some inspiration from Lady GaGa with the Alejandro style. So in that vein I went with a dancer kind of group setting for my pics. The hair comes with pack huds, so you can swap between colour choices on the run.
I did also buy some non sale items while doing the run around, some of them are in this pic, the set in the middle for instance I couldn’t resist, and of course the panties and gloves, all worked wonders for this look. The top on my back up dancers lol, is from Nyte n Day and it is extremely revealing, I really don’t imagine I would do much dancing in it unless it was gaffa taped to my breasts.
Moving down, I was so excited to see Gurl 6 return to Hair Fair this year, you know it was her that pretty much started the ball rolling on the very first Hair Fair in Second Life that was held at the Panache sim, and if you noticed there is actually a 2006 poster up at this years Hair Fair that Zyrra found and was kind enough to share with us. I love these new styles, and so awesome to see Six using Sculpties, the pixie style on the right could totally be unisexy, and has that just out of the shower look.
The three items in this pic are the ones I grabbed from the Adorable event, the dress in the middle is Sassy Kitty designs, and the two bodysuits are from PIG, the much loved Olivia bodysuit without the ruffles.

While I write this Marni Grut is getting ready for her opening of Royal Blue, a reopening actually, as she has been spending time upping her craft to make a bigger and better brand. Marni just loves it when I get in her IM, it always means extra work lol. Today was no exception but well worth it for all, as the new coats she is releasing now have a with spikes and shoulderpads option, and a without, meaning when you aren’t so GaGa you can do your own thing.
She is doing a blend of both out there and for all occassions wear, which is perfect for those customers who are loyal to a brand/designer. The zipper tank was a pleasant surprise, not only featuring a zipper front, but the low back with zipper is a great look, and very frisky. Marni has also made some wonderful Jeans, that come in great denim colours and have a lovely worn in already look about them, without being too rough around the edges.
I am wearing the film crew tshirts from Fri.day with the jeans on the bottom, these tshirts with their old movies theme are so cute. I especially like the rolled sleeves look at the shoulders, a bit more fun than your regular tshirt, and they also look well worn in. The hair I am wearing is new from Exile in the two two pics, the first being a glorious backcombed side pony, the backcombing giving a stunning beehive look at the crown…very hot for this season. The second a shaggy mane of layers, totally loviong the softness of this hair, its wild and yet not overly so.
The fri.day styles are pretty and as always both elegant and wearable, Raina would make the perfect updo for a formal affair, but can be worn as simple and casual as with todays look. More shoes from the fair, the real toe wrap sandals from J’s are a great wedge style, with built in toes and an easy to use colour system. The regular pallet that J’s uses for his leather has been used again for these, and I personally love the colours that he uses, they seem to fit just about everything.
Another pair from the fair, this time from NCore, are the Seduction shoes, these shoes have so many options that buying a safe base colour still gives you tonnes of possibilities. The laces, and heels have different colour options, so do the soles the inners and the heel tips and rings. With fun prints for the nails and options for gloss or not, which is the equivelant of shiny. they are sexy and definitely well named.

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.

Slick and Slide
After the third crash I had to come back home, it was fun while it lasted though. Callie Cline just finished her latest build, and an impromptu party occured, a good old fashioned barn raising I think you would call it. I had to come home though and type this up, lots to do, lots to do.
I was checking out What’s New SL as I do, and realised that Izzie’s had a release, I ran over to get me some of the fab new items, and grabbed probably an oldie or two while I was at it. The frill suit is so win, and comes in many colours, I went with the black and put it on immediately, swanning about and realised I better jump on my VR Posestand or I will end up wearing it and then forgetting to blog it at a later date.
Now while this is just gorgeous I am a bit weepy to the fact that it was done all in one. As in the shirt/undershirt layers are the top white of the shirt as well as the top of the shorts, rather than making the high waist on a jacket layer separate. Even though I do love as is, I really wish it had been done the other way, so that I would be able to mix and match the bottoms with other items, and the top also with other things, even items from Izzie’s own range of wonderful things.
Note to Designers, don’t flatten and merge separate pieces of clothing, it makes the fashionable cry. Maybe I can find some other highwaisted pants that go high enough to wear with the top of the top and frill, so cute.
The hair I am wearing I have to thank Desiree for from http://acquisitive.wordpress.com
She left a comment on my blog yesterday, and I went snooping on her blog and fell for many things, but mostly this hair, so Yay, thanky Desiree ♥
Now onto things I keep wearing and forgetting to blog, this was a gift from my favourite Xstreet shopper Mel, lol seriously he is getting so good at finding me treats I just die for. The other week he bought me this stunning new corset set, and to my shock it is made by J’s , the same J’s that gives us our fabulous footwear.
Not only is the texturing divine, but the cups to the corset are actually sculpted, and so well done with scripts and a hud to resize exactly how needed. If J’s goes into clothing it is going to be amazing to see. You get the stockings and garters, corset and panties as well as full length gloves. I have been wearing the corset with pants and it is just beautiful to wear, if you click on the sculpted breast covering you get the option to choose lace or no lace in the cups category.
I decided that if I was going to show it in its full lingerie look, I was going to do so old school style and be a bunny. With ears and whiskers from Cobrahive that I really think are just too adorable.
Izzie’s again for some bargains, the lace tops are a steal and everything from there can be found on Xstreet if you aren’t in the mood to tp. Well worth a visit to the store though. These tops come in lots of colours and in two different options, I am wearing them with the tube skirts from Goth1c0 which are slung to the side and lowrise. Again a bit weepy that the top and skirts don’t give all layers options, but that I guess is just us getting used to that becoming the norm lately.
Taking more time to spin the UnBra skin Mayara around, the skin comes with four cleavage options and such dramatic make ups. There are pics included that let you know the rgb values of the skins so that you can tint shoes or gloves for nails with ease. Make sure you DemoDemoDemo.
**As I say to many when we have this debate though. You should never want someone to put your items aside to wear something else, just because you didn’t provide all layers.
It sucks to have to make them, and it is a lot of work – believe me I have done my fair share of making thousands of layers options over the years -Â but in the long run customers appreciate it, and people will wear them more often. There are items that I always go to as back up, knowing that what I want to finish a look will be there on all pieces I may need, and I am sure I am not the only one.
EDIT and IMPORTANT Fabulousness : Since this post went to print (lol) Izzie of Izzie’s has redone the Frill Set to now include the seperate layers and ALL layers, so that you can mix and match to your hearts content, HOW AWESOME IS THAT ! especially since the post only published a few hours ago… Izzie Button you get todays AWESOME DESIGNER Award – which is invisible but still heartfelt.

* have you ever wondered why that last mouthful is too much?
-
Wetlands is my …..
I was feeling all ready to take a hundred pics today, and then I got all turned around and upside downed and gave up after one lol. It started out with the middle outfit, and then I just liked the idea of black n’ white with a touch of pink. Usually this combo would steer towards red as the colour splash, but I went a little louder.
Black and white makes such an great backdrop, and with the stunning creations all over SL it isn’t hard to find pieces you love. With the middle dress though, this is more of an oldy, that was also a great bargain, it actually came with red pearls. I am not a huge fan of how the finish is done around the neck, but the overall look is there. If you have a more tailored look in similar print, you can play around with that too.
I dragged Whimsy over to INDI yesterday, and she proceeded to be driven around in her new ‘float’ that was a group gift from Thistle…all laughing aside we shopped in the new hair salon, and the styles I picked up are gorgeous. Not just the style and primwork, but the textures have such great depth and highlights to them, they are beautiful to wear, and very cost friendly on both packs and fatpacks. The Modeno style looks great with the smokey deep eye make up of the LOLA skin by LeLutka. Even though I can choose from a number of lipsticks with this new fabulous skin, I chose to go nude lips, because there is enough slash pink in the clothing and accessories.
The bubble skirt dresses from Maitreya are an 80’s lovers dream, balloon skirts were all the rage mid 80’s and if I combined the top of the left skirt, with the balloon of the right, and added black and white stripes I would have my favourite. Now that I look at the pic composite I think that’s what I was channeling lol.
Thank goodness again for layers and mod, modding done to my sunglasses and belt in the middle, adding a slight tint to the already colours, to get them to be more like the pink of my leggings. The fabulous corset by Sn@tch is so well structured and available on all layers, so with the skirt taking up the jacket layer, I was still able to wear it…cries big sobs when people only put things on jacket layer, it totally makes them unwearable most times.
Ok that is me out for now, off to work out some Hair Fair business and run around Stormwind with Whimsy, it is her equivalent of old Gurl 6, I would explain but you wouldn’t believe me. Don’t forget to Join the Subscribo Matic at The Deck Landing point so you can keep up to date on Hair Fair info .

Date Night
Wow the weekend flew past, I don’t even know what we did, I know I turned SL 4 that’s about it. I do know though that I introduced Whimsy to the dark side, now that she has a WoW account we have been killing things and such, and to find her now I have to go looking there. I have also been reading a lot more lately, and a lot of what I read is total rubbish, I am the first to admit it. But I enjoy it and that is the main thing.
I am looking forward to this weekend though, as it will be our celebration of The Deck being around for just over a year, and many of the designers that have stores there are going to be giving gifts over the weekend, so I will enjoy getting to see many people come back and revisit The Deck…it is amazing how fast the year has gone. I also cannot wait to see what will be given as gifts, it will be like birthday pressies for everyone, so exciting.
The Larin skirt by Zaara is so beautiful, it isn’t just because of it’s highwaistedness, or the beautiful textures, but more so to do with the incredible workmanship of the prims. The creating of proper draped looking alpha textures; without losing to alpha glimmers, or any of the other things that limit the true beauty of SL creation. The prim work is so smooth and fits to the contour of the body seamlessly, I haven’t had to resize or edit in anyway and yet can barely even see where the skirt meets the glitch pants.
What I think is an absolute shame though, is that the Larin belt and cinch part of the skirt are not separate… I think that personally the texture of that part of the skirt is wonderful, and it is such a shame to be not able to wear it over other items. I wish Zaara would get those files out, erase all that is not the cinched part and make it in many more colours on all layers, I think that could even liven up the skirts for many that wore them to death on release, there are print ones that if the upper portion was in the colours of the pattern may make an interesting combo…or even if the thin belts on the same bases were different, imagine the ivory skirt with a red belt or turquoise and so on, MORE BELTS please Zaara .
I went with three different looks, these for me are perfect early evening to wherever the night takes you looks. Something that you feel comfortable in, but extremely feminine and stylish. The perfect Date night look.
Recently Whippet & Buck (gosh I love that store) had out some bustiers in solids, that previously had been print only…they were part of the 50L friday, but if they are out now as a regular priced item and you didn’t get them, go get them now, well worth it. They make the perfect balance for extending a look like this one, into a dressier look, or as a modesty covering such as in the second pic.
I adore the Ontible dress from Le Lutka and this is the first time I have actually worn it with the sleeves, as previously after release I never did. Looking back HERE I realise I have never worn it the way it comes in the box lol. Loving layers, wearing the bustier from W&B with the shirt layer of the actual Ontibile dress that just tucks up under the breasts, and still having the room for the jacket layer of the skirt, that is total win.
I hope you have been noticing my beautiful new skin, this is the latest release from UnBra. Mayara is a gorgeous skin with not one, not two but FOUR cleavage options. This skin goes all out on accomodating the needs of all. With the beautiful body work, and I am totally happy that there are different cleavages, but also hair bases, and as far as going all out to show you the major details of the product there is included an image showing the RGB value of the skins, not only does this benefit for shoes, but also when tinting gloves for nails.
There are enough make ups in this skin line to please everyone, actually I could do with about twenty or so more, but it definitely covers from day to night and a little bit of fantasy thrown in for good measure.
The poses are the new poses from /Geez by Grazia Horwitz, she recently reopened her pose store during pose fair, and has been creating poses for men and women ever since, so make sure you check it out.
Now speaking of tinting feet, Maitreya has recently updated their Shanti and Esprit -XTD shoes, so if you go to the redelivery terminals in their Maitreya Gold store you can press the machine and get the updated versions. The updates have less scripts and more win, with the fat pack version having an all in one click-able pair that is great for fast changing, as well as V2.0 options getting rid of the invisi prim look.
Further updates will follow, but make sure you get your Shanti and Esprit XTD as soon as you can.

Touch
So the other day I was taking the pics of this stunning new dress, and I did the silliest thing ever. I was so smitten by my skin that I completely zoned out on the fact I shouldn’t have been taking pics of it at all. I actually got all the way to the credits part and realised at the last moment *Face Palms.
So in the trash all the pretty pics went, and I ended up doing a post on something else instead, I was so McSadface about the whole thing, but I tend to think if you’re trusted to see something early, you just don’t go there. Unless of course that is what the creator wants you to do, and I am sure that happens a lot, little on purpose leaks.
Anywhozza, the new Suede Minidresses by DeLa are as quality work as all of the beautiful DeLa releases of the past, I miss Kura being in world more often 🙁 and Eitaro, I miss her giggles too. It seems now that both only come in to release, so I hope it is because they are having an incredible first life. At least I get to chat with them when they do turn up, and they always assure me things are going well :).
The dresses have all the usual layer options, size options and attachment choices that we are used to with the Dela brand, Kura always goes all out in that department, making sure her customers are well taken care of. I definitely favor the chest pieces in this dress as they have that added benefit of bringing the fabric to a more realistic structure, then with the added froufrou of the tie on the side. I also find very appealing in this style the side ruched effect, this to me gives it that saloon girl of old quality, and I could not let that go by without playing up to it with the western boots by J’s which of course come in perfect colours to compliment DeLa’s own palette.
Even without the chest pieces the underneath clothing layers have been finished so well that you can wear without and still get a very attractive clothing line, the cleavage truly enhanced by not only the dress but of course the skin option. This is something that is definitely a stand out when it comes to quality, I don’t know about you but I find it heartbreaking to take off prims and find shoddy unfinished looking clothing layers.
It should always be as magnificent underneath, as with things like lag etc, or inability to attach at all, you should be able to wear any item of clothing proudly and without fear of looking like crap if the prims aren’t attached, prims are usually there to enhance an outfit.
The other items worn with these looks are also by DeLa, the sweater wraps which are so fun, and the shearling jacket which I am only wearing the top portion of, the long and short versions of this jacket are all incredible, I am looking forward to wearing them often in my upcoming winter.
The skin I went with in the end when deciding to reshoot is the Dutch Touch Jolie skin, one of my favourites of the Dutch Touch lines. I wore these and the others day in and day out for so long at one stage, many will remember that I am sure, they truly are beautiful. It seems Dutch Touch also has a new group in world, that if you join now it is free, but after april it will cost to join, so you better get in fast, there is also a celebratory sjors skin in the archives for added incentive and to give you something to try full time if you haven’t tried Dutch Touch in the past.
All about going backwards and forwards today, I had to rekindle some love for my analog dog, so incredibly curly and the way it moves is just amazing, but there are of course tamer styles, so if you haven’t been to Analog Dog lately, put on your flippers and get to it.
Almost the weekend for me, I hope you all make the most of yours…………………………………..

Fierce
I had some great news today regarding Hair Fair.
Sharing the hair stage today with IA Ivanka Akina and Exile, all such gorgeous wigs, but need to point out that the one with the two tone look does not come that way. I purchased the textures that many use now, and carefully made a copy first and then used both the solid and alpha options on the front bangs, luckily I made a copy first because the first time I got carried away and ruined some, but if you stick to the pieces that do not say multiple in the edit window you will be fine.
Three pics of punkish but girly still style looks. The first lot are tshirts and shorts by IA, and because they come on all layers they are versatile to mix and match, the shorts are just darling. The tshirts are a lot of fun too, there are more than the four shown, but my fav out of those would have to be the candy cane ribcage.
The second pic has some amazing dresses by DeeTalez, these leather dresses have that horror movie lab coat look going on, and they honestly scare the hell out of me, but so hot all at the same time. I toned down the look a little with the hair choice, but seriously go with some straight bangs and severe heels and you could turn many into monsters.
A while back 5th & Oxford did a Rebel Rebel release, and I have used pieces from it in the past, but more so today. The denim skirts come with belt and skirt attached or seperate, some great tanks that are a bit more glitz and would work with many going out looks, and the interweaving of some older MichaMi pieces brought it all together for me, I love that jacket, it is so pretty.
Stellar would be another fabulous store for punkish girly looks, but this time I went with their latest swimwear…that lucky for you two colours in a different pattern are todays Stellar Hump day special , so you get them at a bargain price. These ones are retro lovely, and the colours they come in are beautiful, the two bandana prints available today are blue and red, but I wanted you to see the retro versions as well.
The shoes I am wearing with them worked so well also, because just like when playing golf, some women wear heels poolside. The YS & YS shoes are so sexy, and they come in two different ranges of colours and adornments, which I think are just so this coming summer looks. They have all the usual YS HUD options, and they also come in a viewer 2 option. If you hurry to The Dressing Room there is actually a pair in white there for only 75L, so grab those because that is a steal.
With all these looks I am wearing the NEW Martina skin by LAQ. This skin has a beautiful face, much stronger in character I think than previous. I love the thicker brow that seems to be fairly obvious in this skin, with the usual tones and hair base option, sensational body and a great range of make ups, ten in all. Some of them more subtle than others, but a lovely range none the less.
When looking at skins it is really important as I have said in the past to DEMO them, not only in the store, but at home using your own lighting, the other thing is that it is really important to get naked to do so. Now this may not be for the reasons you think.
I have been witness to people disapointment with skins and blemishes over the years, and it was only because of Mel teaching me did I come to understand that sometimes those marks are not on the skin at all. Sometimes residue from clothing can look to be skin blemishes, and be no where near the actual line of the clothing, so it goes unrecognised as such.
So please make sure that if you do see something a little off on a skin, that you are in fact naked first and rebake as much as possible until you judge it on skin alone, it may just be something you are wearing stopping you from purchasing something you really like.
The poses in the last pic are latest prop poses by Glitterati, you wear the correct numbered beach ball, and the corresponding pose works with it, so cute, and the ball is click to change texture.

Breathe in and HOLD
Purple Punishment week is almost over, but as I said before I am having too much fun. I still don’t think I will go to one purple as a first choice ever, but I don’t think I will entirely rule it out, and I love how the other ones look. Today somehow ended up being a corset post, I love corsets, in all of their styles, I especially love them when the designer makes them on all options, so that they work with everything, as was the case with these ones today.
With the Addict corsets in the first pic, it is lucky that Kianna did them on every layer including pants, so that I would be able to wear it over underpants layered jeans, and still wear the fabulous new no collar leather jacket by Aoharu, or if I had opted for a cardigan or shrug on the jacket layer. Layers really enhance the experience on how you can get the most out of your wardrobe.
The skinny jeans and frayed come on both pants and underpants layers, so this makes them fun and versatile too. I could have kept layering and mixing and matching these four pieces all day. The second pic veered away from the purple, but again showed the beauty of layer options. Wearing a cropped top on the jacket layer, over a corset on the pants and shirt layer, over a mini skirt on the underpants layer. Eclectic Apparel, Dark Eden and Urbanity all having layers for everything made that so possible. With the large expanse of skin in this look, you may be fooled into thinking not necessary, but the trim on the corset is actually on the underpants layer.
What is fun, is that the corset by Eclectic Apparel is in fact a full breast covering corset, but with the cropped shirt over the top, it looks like an underbust cinch belt style one instead. Whimsy and I took a trip to Xplosion, haven’t been since way back, and wow have they grown in leaps and bounds. Mind you the store was huge already, but I couldn’t resist the cute tank girl stockings, which don’t cover the feet, so I wonder if they are stockings at all, maybe calf coverings ? I don’t know, but they are hot.
Addict has been updating a storm lately, the doubs gloves are another of their great new releases, with either gold or silver buttons they can be fun and funky, or a little more stylised depending on look. I pulled out the older sculpted Anklets by Maitreya, I have not worn these in ages, and mentioned them to Newdoll the other day, and decided I needed to show them some love today.
A Bargain today is the Fawn hair in the last pic by Adam n Eve, this hair is great and it allowed me to get my Cher on. It is part of the 69L humpday promotion, so don’t miss out on the savings there. Other Adam n Eve items are the C ‘mere shoes I have so much fun with, as well as the leather pants which are just beautifully made. Dreams has released a new set of corsets as well this week, with houndstooth as shown as well as ribbed and animal prints.
I also have on one of the latest collars, neko style with adorable diamond paw print dangle. It comes with bling or no bling options, and has a colour change menu. Lots of fun and the cute Cat box that some of the neko items are packed in is awesome.
I love my Ife skins by LeLutka, but today went with the first love on that line Estella, with the beauty marks that are just so lovely. Great hair bases too, with light and dark options.
All my poses today were created by Miseria, I cannot wait until she produces more poses to play with, hopefully she is in the pose fair coming up on the 2nd of April , not sure though, will have to wait to see.

Going to the Chapel
Due to the fact that Fia wasn’t around today, I couldn’t get myself a custom wedding set, so no purple other than the backdrop in this one..but I will make up for it in other posts. I really was in the mood to shoot this tonight though, so I went with it, I am sure that Ashia will be a sport about it :P.
Somehow this evening, the conversation steered its way to weddings and partnering, so with that in my head, I pulled out the Waterfall Wedding Gown by Sascha Designs, also because of the fact that the beautiful new skin by YS & YS has a hair base with matching bun, that just looked such a perfect wedding bun style.
This gown has many options of wear, but this combo was my favourite, it has a real va va voom thing going on, sort of what you would expect a hollywood starlet to wear in the roaring 20’s. This gown could also be worn to an event, because of its more silvery sheen than pure white, that would totally work.
While at Sascha Designs I camera’d across and landed on Tally Hoo, the name alone made me smile, and I thought it would be a great accompaniment to the wedding gown. If Johnny Depp was a girl, and was getting married to another girl, this would totally be what he would wear, ok maybe not, but in my silly fantasy it would be.
All of the wedding floral items are from Essentia, there are bouquets, bouttonnieres and corsages, all matching and demos available in the store, all prim and no alpha, so it makes taking pics a breeze.
Speaking of pics I played around a bit with this pic in ps, so the prims laying properly along the floor as of course prims usually sink into the floor or just hang there, this gives it a bit more realism for the pic, but just so you know they will not do that in sl.
The skin again is new by YS & YS , three tones available in 14 make ups… freckles options , hair bases and cleavage enhancements, so you have so much choice, and the skin is just beautiful. So pretty, so feminine and with a really diverse look …DEMO DEMO DEMO.
I am using some new modeling poses from Body Language Sweet Lovely Cute, I actually would have shot so many more fun wedding shots, but again with all the alpha and prims, I wanted clean looks, so I will just have to use these fab poses in other shoots, the packs are great, so make sure you stop by and splurge.
