Print-sess Sasypants
After the wall and window, a billboard just had to be next, right? I found it hilarious that the background sky in the stock image was so clear, devoid of any clouds, it had me wanting wind light in there, which is funny, because with my settings so that I see things the way I need to, I don’t have clouds either, pretty much other than the tone, that is exactly how I see the sky day to day.
One of the hardest things with clothes making to work with I think, would have to be prints. The way the mesh works, and distorts, and then of course the upper and lower portion of the top half of the body. Who knew you had to make the bottom part larger to get it to match? well luckily for us, many creators do know that, and LeeZu actually did a great tutorial on just that recently on her website.
Side seams however do not phase me, some people get all wanky about it, but when is the last time you saw print in RL match on the sides, it is just not economically viable in RL to cut fabric that way because of waste and time. Possibly if the item was screen printed after being made into clothing, then it would work, but still, I am just not that nutso about it. The difference though in seam speak is that people need to explain when they mean print meeting, and not sides joining…because they are two different things. If the front doesn’t join to the back without a big obvious flaw gap with the underarm area looking all crazy, then that is just not so cool. Worse still if it isn’t hidden under the arms at all, like socks or the tops of pants, then that should never go to the wall – by that I mean set for sale.
Anyway I am rambling, and what I am rambling about, other than a great use of prints, has nothing to do with this post lol. Tutti Frutti is a store that boldly goes to the wall lol, the prints in her store are marvelous, and the pants are just HOT HOT HOT, recently Bela had a set of pants for a gift at The Deck and they were all I wore for a few days, so comfy and fun. These new pants just released are gorgeous, hard to choose which ones to favourite, as they all have such stand out qualities. I would have to say though I am partial to the Under Roses jeans, and the ones featured on the billboard are my ode to Newdolls Feet :P.
With the NEW Aequus shoes by Maitreya Gold having the ability to two tone it, I found it a must to go with as much colour as possible. Toning it down with the stunning skin by Tuli that has been created for The Dressing Room – Info about that in Tuli’s Group notices – at a phenomenal discount. The Aequus shoes are a stunning pvc sheen leather with ankle wraps kept on with delicate straps and buckles, I really like the ankle wrap addition, because it gives the straps a nice background, letting them stand out more as a feature than practical workings of the shoes.
I am wearing more Fri.day Hair, that SALE was and still is awesome, so make sure you take the time to get over there, and creators, if you often take pics because of vendor ads etc, now is the time to stock up on hair for future ads, make the most of the bargains. You will also notice when looking at the Fri.day ads that Pavarti wears a lot of Tuli in her ads, YAY Tuli.

Mi Mi Mi So La Ti Dooooooooooooooooooo
One of my favourite things as a blogger, is when colour palettes just work. Even more exciting is when one has nothing to do with the other, and yet somehow they match.
Such was the case with the latest releases from MichaMi and Kookie, the new City Wedge shoes have colours that work so well with the latest from Milla, it is so easy to put looks together, or just make life simpler and slip your feet into the shoes and your body into the clothes and be done with it.
I went the simple route today, as it is my Sunday, and I have lots of work to do. The Nina pieces are a mesh lovers delight, with the tanks being ever so versatile, and the capris and crop having a sort of futuristic sporty theme going on. I guess the mesh would cool your body down much faster, so that works, mind you not sure how I would go running in those shoes, but then again all good fashionista’s can run in heels right?
The hair I am wearing is newness from SHAG, it is actually out for one of the get it cheaper now pay more later kind of groupy things that seem to happen a lot lately. The Hawke is a male style but I couldn’t resist. Hawkes look so cool with hairbase skins, and the Lola by Lelutka works a treat.
Underneath the Mesh tanks, I have on the Fri.day sweet.heart dress bodysuits, YAY for a SALE at Fri.day until the 12th. I was able to grab the colours I didn’t have in the dresses that have the bodysuits, such good value.In the next pic I am wearing the beautiful Kat Dresses and Samara Tops, both such easy to wear items. If you are not a fan of sculpted skirts the Kat dress has a system skirt option also, it is really awesome how much Milla does with her clothes to provide for every variation.
Some great socks from DeLa, they come in all different lengths and colours as an all in one pack, and the City Wedges again which are so much fun.
Have a great weekend everyone, make sure you spend some quality face time ( meaning actually leave your skyboxes and talk to your friends in front of them) with friends and colleagues.
FYI . In the top pick I have on a Tattoo layer I threw together so it is not part of the skin.

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.

Redcoats are coming
Whimsy just kidnapped me.Loving the new military style Tourist jacket from Fri.day, it totally compliments the older DeLa boots that have those similar brass buttons up the side that I love. I kind of felt all ex british hunter/soldiery, so went with layering some pieces from MichaMi one with a kind of animal print effect that was originally part of a swimsuit set, but totally rocks when layering.
What is not to love with the belt from Veschi, this comes with the dresses that are must haves anyways, so you will have ample opp to wear them. Banging out in my Maitreya roll up shorts to finish this stylish but way comfy look. The choice of what colour to feature today was made easy with the make up in the Elena Skin pack. This one number three is divine for those that love their rich red/burgundy’s.
Posebility is the creator of the pose used in this pic, they are another of the stores at the Pose Fair, check it out if you haven’t before it ends on the 16th.

Romper Domper Doo
Sales are always fun, and even better when you have been meaning to go over and get your fix for ages and haven’t had a chance. The other things that are too much fun, are new AO’s . The other day I got one, and was attending a meeting and just giggling myself silly, while I bent and stretched and seriously exhausted my avatar and others watching me.
The new AO is one of two recently released by Body Language. Romp is a definite no standing still styled AO. It has so much movement, and most of it is fitness like in nature. What better way to show off the new shorts by Boom I thought, so that was my first play today…also handy that I got fab new visors from Cobrahive this week. They are the store having a huge 50% off sale at the moment, and if you haven’t indulged you need to. Unisexy content for the win, so you can take a group of friends over and have a shopping party.
Also new and a definite throwback to the 80’s are the sneakers by Anexx, these are reebokesque for sure. Everything about them is fun, the fringe on the sides, the beaded ends to the hang down parts, and the three different options, plain, paisley or rose print on the sides to these adorable hightops.
Even MORE 80’s are the Denim Boots also by Anezz, wow talk about flashbacks, these were so popular back then. One of my best had a pair a bit lower and looser than these, and the funniest part about the jeans like boots was the pocket replica portion actually worked as a pocket, so storing your ID and such for the night was totally taken care of.
The Riddle dress and coat combos are not only stylin for colder days, and yeah down here we are moving into that territory, but the coat itself is a separate wearable that will come in handy for so many different looks. Riddle does such lovely dresses that you could probably interchange the coat with other styles such as a big favourite their argyle ones.
The Cozy Scarves are just too divine. Buttoned or unbuttoned this accessory is fantastic. You could ad so much to an item with this, totally changing the overall look of a garment. I decided to wear them with the gorgeous Rhia dresses that for me are so original Star Trek looking.
The style is simple and just the right type of contrast, with Milla taking into consideration not only all layers , but sizes as well, with the premade prims portions in size options as well as mod. Pairing them up with her Pia leggings, aren’t the cutouts just adorable, I really hope she didn’t do those cutouts one box at a time, because we need her eyes to stay clear and focused for lots more beautiful releases to come.
I stress so much about how long it can take me to get to a release, but sometimes it is a bonus that I did, with the buttoned look of the scarves, and the two tone look of the dresses working so well with the Pursay boots buttoned version by Perse. I cheated a bit here though and went with the Sasy Chic shoes in the noir for the second look, because I could and I did .
I had to wear the eyewrap for this look first off, because wasn’t there always some sinister chick in Star Trek that appeared a goody and then wasn’t, and they for some reason are always missing eyes, or a hand or something peculiar like that – or maybe I am just mixing all my baddies together lol – regardless it is another item from Cobrahive that is just fab.
The Faded tunics by Doppelganger have that at first male oversized shirt look to them, and honestly when is that ever a bad thing. I was watching Greek the other night and apparently it’s a big turn on for men to see women in their stuff – ok it was more about dress shirts but shhhh – what I really liked was that all the colours went so well with the snowdrift boots by Kalnins. Even though I very very much would love more colour options in these boots, the ones preset into the hud worked so well for these.
Adding the big waist belts to cinch the look together, I am all ready for a day or night out with my snuggled footsies.
All of the hair I am wearing for this post is by HCT, I was a bit upset in convo the other day to hear that someone thought that Babyboo hadn’t been making hair. She has been in and out of SL of late, but she does as much as she can when she is here, and regardless of new or old her styles are still so lovely.
Also lovely are the Charlotte skins by Dernier Cri, the make up range is fun and interestingly named, and I just love the body detailing, so when looking all fit for the shorts they were an easy choice.
* RIP Corey Haim thank you for making my 80’s crush on you something special. Your movies were amazing, and Lost Boys is not even the first that comes to mind. *

That Coat
So with all the buzz about the Oscars, I was planning a post based on looks you can do for them. Formal, Semi Formal, or just downright vintage casual. But then the post took on a mind of it’s own due to the coat I picked up last night while gallivanting around with Whimsy.
She looks so pretty in her Oscars look, but we ended up doing one of our sim hopping, this store leads to another, and as I said, it ended up all about the coat. I could go on for days with looks with this one. It is that perfect old suit coat that I love thing happening, and the possibilities with it are endless.
The coat is from Luster, the recently rebranded store, with items by Lo Jacobs. We had actually gone to Tableau because Nylon had released some newness – yes got some of that too – and I took off across the street and took Whimsy with me, she got all coated up too with a different style, but this one is the icing on the cake so to speak for mix and match brilliance.
We then ended up at Mischief Boy, a new to us Hair Store, so new in fact that I think they were still setting up. The hat hair screamed Benny & Joon to me, and if you are a movie buff you will know exactly what I mean…so I was off and running in that tangent. Then next door to that we found another store so new that their vendors weren’t set for sale yet, but there it was, like a beacon calling to me the Tie Shirt. Off we went to their main and bamm it was mine.
Seriously it is bloggers fate as I call it, as no real effort was made, the items were just everywhere I went, in perfect harmony. I got home and was thinking pants, I did kind of want to do a gaucho kind of look at first, but then I remembered that MichaMi was having a retirement sale on some of her items, so off I hopped and grabbed the black version of the fabulous Stella suit. The half off sale makes everything you don’t have a must…and when the suit was released I tried to behave and not go auto for the black, so yay a bargain – lol MichaMi is a bargain full price, I am just playin.
Running to the middle me, that dress underneath, kind of reminded me of a tux, with the coat over the top, so adding my big mod bow I was a mix and match equivelant…kind of clubby, kind of fun. Speaking of fun, OMG that hair, seriously it’s a treasure of a style…so pretty in fact that it is supposed to be worn with an attachment of butterflies, but I will save those for another day.
The hair I got at the Accessory Fair that is on at the moment. Whimsy and I went a few hours ago, and it was really lovely to spend that time moving in and out of the stores. One bit baffled me though, I looked at Map to realise there were actually two parts to the sim for the fair, but I couldn’t work out how to get to the second without flying over the buildings in the middle – I could have looked it up in search I guess, but I was worried I wouldn’t get back in.
Anyway it was a Jewelry store called SyDS! That I got the Hair in, and lucky for me, we spent so long outside waiting for the gorgeous rings we bought to rez, that the hair finally rezzed inside…no demos that I could see but YUM, what a gamble and the price is wonderful.
The other stunning item I got at the fair were from Ganked, I think we bought everything in there. This is the Pomp set, and it is just so elegant with all the shiny, but also costumey enough to wear in this way, which means it will get worn more often than your regular formal jewelry probably does.
My major excitement earlier in the week was over the hat on the left. Four hats to be exact, from Sascha’s Designs. As soon as I saw them announced I was off and running. The style of them, the textures used totally had me thinking I was going to end up broke by the time I left, but the prices of them will shock you if you are a hat lover, I wont spoil the surprise just get on over there.
Veil style pillbox hats like this one are always a must have, this one being a tad oversized than a traditional pillbox , but that is what makes it even more fabulous. Sascha says she has plans for more of these, and I cannot wait, it will totally sate my hat cravings I have on occasion that just leave me usually depressed. I may just have to save on wearing the others until one of those days, and then I can smile big and happy.
hope you do today, have a good one.

blog – Iconic
Right now I am spinning around on an iceberg in a bikini, only in Second Life right? at the same time I am listening to Whimsy read off the gossip and drama of the Golden Globe awards…did you know Sophia Loren wore a dress she has already been seen in *Gasps ! I mean seriously, do you think at her age, with her experience and style that she gives a damn what the media think.
She is an icon, I remember being little and seeing her for the first time in House Boat. Saturday afternoons were wonderful for old reruns of great movies…her and Ann Margaret were two of my favourites for sure.
This new skin by Dutch Touch has a definite movie star quality to it. I was trying to think who it was that the lips reminded me of, which is not easy as the skin is hand drawn. But then it hit me, Liv Tyler, and what killer lips she has ,right!
6 stunning tones, and so many different options, that the fat pack could totally take you into a new inventory level. Different brows, cleavage and NEW Hairbases, which is a very handy option to have these days.
Styling it up with some New and older pieces from MichaMi, another style icon behind the label in my opinion, Milla really does create such heavenly pieces for her brand, and she has a new mainstore too as of the past few days. *reminds self to change slurly*
All the poses I used today are from the new release by Diesel Works, they are a fun set of poses for taking pics, I like having a nice range of poses that allow for full skirts etc.
Stay tuned for more of the Gwen skins in the future, these are just lovely. They are being released soon. Now I am sitting in flan as you call it, I would call it creme caramel !

We of course are so comfortable in our Fashionalities – yes made up word from a twin experience Whimsy and I had last week, it means being comfortable enough in oneself to totally wear the same stuff as your friends, and them to be comfy enough to not give a shit. It can also mean you can totally fixate on an outfit so much that you wear it for a week, and even though your friends may jab at you, it’s all in fun…Disclaimer THIS DOES NOT APPLY TO MEN! – Change your damn clothes already.
Ok so as usual we were all doing our thing, chatting in conference. I tp’d away from the landing area at The Deck and a few minutes later Ashia was wondering where I was. The other day I had taken another friend to update her look and one of the items I got her to buy was stuck in my head.
I realised that we hadn’t been to MichaMi in loads so off we went, when we got there Whimsy and I were sitting on the fab sofas , and I declared we needed to do a collab pic…yeah I am bossy like that, but if I wasn’t we would still be waiting for a blog post from Whimsy well into 2010, she likes to think that all the planning she does for posts is the same as actually doing one :P.
Ashia was calling out from the next room that she was almost there, she was going to wow us with her accessorising. Well she did indeed. Last night we had been shopping, lol funny how we do that a lot.
I had totally tried and failed at prim nails in the past, I mean I loved them..and the ones out and about are fun and fab…but they just didn’t ever do as much for me as I wanted. Then Whimsy sent me IM’s of STOP MEEEEE the other day, and I did. But then we went back and she fatpacked all over the place, and by the next day I was also hooked, so much so that now I am dealing to others, so far Ashia has joined us in Mandala Love too.
They come with the rings, and incredible bracelets and bangles. Those luckily can be worn as seperate parts, and on this occasion I didn’t wear those pieces, but believe me I will. While you are visiting Mandala, be sure to take notice of the fantastic advertising art that is in the store, it is really inspiring, and his flickr and work he does for DeJa Vu Magazine is awesome too.
So, this is the most accessories I’ve worn since early 07 during my neko phase 😛
I’ve never worn prim nails, but these were so pretty, who could resist the crack.
I love the beige shade from Michami clothes, more like an old gold, so beautiful. This suit caught my eye and begged me to take it home, cos I knew it would go perfectly with my xmas pressies from manadala. The gorgeous jewelery and nails sets.
The only boots that were perfect enough to go with such a groomed look were of course the Bax Prestige boots in brown.____________________________
Wanting to of course make the post painless to shop from, we totally did the same stores thing, Lamb hair, looking smexy, Bax boots because not only are they gorgeous, especially in the NEW Suede version which I am wearing…if you go for the colours you get four beautiful tones, even the black in the suede has options, which I am sure many wish was the same in the leather. If you are a boot lover, check out the fat pack in the Suede Prestige it’s price is great.
We all really love our MichaMi, Milla is not just a great person, fantastic blogger but also an extremely talented designer…I am looking forward to her new styles in the new year, we were discussing her while shopping, and decided that a collection from Milla if she let loose, would be a fantastic thing to see.
We are of course all wearing the beautiful Justice Skin, by Idiosyncrasy designer Ashia Tomsen <3 Whimsy has been all about the brown make up in this skin, and I am chuffed there was such a beautiful deep smokey blue shadow option in the 6pm pack. Whimsy is also wearing her new coat from CoCo we went and got that last night, and it is just stunning on her, we might have to find her some corgi’s to go with it, oh wait she has them too.
This lovely hair from Lamb, has the softest of brown textures, and I love it for its highlights and lowlights. My lashes were a fun find from Oh!, I went for hair and fatpacked the lashes! They also come with a lighted version for those still thinking they need facelights. My skin is from Idiosyncrasy, and is the new Justice line which has this awesome lipstick shade that I love.
My coat is from Coco, its this awesome cute swing coat. I saw someone wearing a swing coat just yesterday in real life and loved the cut of it, and this lives up to what we love about them in real life. The texture and detail is well done, and I love particulary in this color choice how the grey and browns work together. With this much color and pattern going on, I didn’t over complicate the outfit and went with MichaMi’s Pippa pants for their color, and the texture of the fabric. The beige sweater from Fishy Strawberry lent more browns, and great textures to the look.
To pull everything together I chose my Bax boots, in brown which really work well with the Coco coats details.
My obsession with my Mandala nails was too much for me and I had to have them. Love them! I find they fit will and the texturing is amazing, funky, yet chic. The nails come with the matching rings attached, and are no modify. Also included with purchase are amazing bangles. Both in Bright, and No Bright Options. To pull more grey tones I went with the Tarika Claw earrings from Zaara, in silver. My cute belt from CoCo is a fun accessory I love the joining clasp in the front and how it becomes a feature.

Agrees because I got that belt too lol. I hope you liked our collab pic, I spend time with these two all day everyday, and honestly I wish Sofia, Newdoll, Justice and Milli could have been in the pic too, but we can grab them next time.

Still so many items to show from Footwear Expo 2009. One of the stand out items for me was from a store I love to visit regularly. I have shown in the past their heels and boots, one pair are even open backed which I love bunches, and are actually set up in their booth at the fair too.
This New release boot is gorgeous. Divine texture work, on equally fabulous sculpted form. The Pauole boots are just must haves for sure, not only because of how wonderful they look, but also because of how inexpensive they are, especially for boots, but that is normal for R2.
Most of the clothing I am featuring today is LeLutka, the seperates they have been releasing of late are just perfect for mixing and matching, to their own; or other designers wear. I especially am in love with the Rockin Pants, they are a leather highwaist style pants, and are HOT HOT HOT. The work on the textures to give them that authentic look is remarkable.
The last few releases for LeLutka have been all about pants, and leggings. A big fan of both, this allows for such a broad scope of fashion ideas. Whether worn on their own, or with large oversized sweaters or dresses layered over them, there is no end to the possibilities of your imagination. But if your imagination doesn’t reach that far, you can check out many of the blogs that take care of those ideas for you. * Points to blog roll on the side ——>
Accessories too play a huge part in an overall look, and lately those have been coming from all over SL. I have been seeing a lot of designers step up to the plate in providing pieces that compliment their own style, as well as add to others.
Fishy Strawberry and Luck Inc have both recently added belts to their stores, first off with the Fishy Strawberry Geisha Leather Belt, these belts are done in the Obi style around the mid thoracic area, but can of course be resized with script and moved down around the hips as I have done for this pic. Luck Inc has made solid and print hip belts as well, a wide double holed belt look, very military in style, but totally chic.
Another thing when it comes to accessories, is don’t limit what comes with one thing, to only that thing. Perfect example is the bow in my hair, it isn’t actually in it, but it is actually from another hairstyle, but I loved the bow so much I dismantled a copy of the hair, and I add it to a number of styles as you have seen in the past.
Pulling out some older items, the first being an item from MichaMi, it is a piece from a set, which of course is wonderful. The other is a swimsuit by Persona, that was actually named after me, and I am honored because it was, because of the layering options, both pieces work well.
Again showing more of the fabulous new Winter2 Skins by Gala @ Curio. The make ups in these are wonderful, and the red lips in the smudgey make up, was perfect to show with the Rockin Pants…that kind of dancing until dawn, mascara running down the face look most hardcore partiers will know well.
My favourites would have to be the silvery based shadow ones, they are the Snow Angel ones, but all of them from top to bottom are fabulous.

Lime in the Coconut
It’s now officially Bandana Day, YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY. So for the next 24 hours I and hopefully thousands of others will be “replacing their hair to show they care”.
You can still buy the Bandana’s at Hair Fair 2009 and as it is nearing the end it is alot easier to navigate around, so make sure you check out all the other fabulous booths, and consider buying up the styles that send part of their proceeds to Locks of Love.
The lovely full piece Yolanda swimwear I am wearing is by the talented Milla of MichaMi. This swimsuit is elegant and stylish, with a definite 70’s appeal.The colours are just beautiful for the sunshine, and will have your skin tone – whatever it is – looking fantastic.
I couldn’t think of anything better to mix with the Carmen Miranda inspired Bandana by Whimsy Winx of Virtually Dressed. She even put the lime in the coconut at the back, what’s not to love.
I went to pixeldolls tonight to grab something for Arabella Steadham of Arabella’s Amblings, and while we were there I poked my head in Sin Skins, which I haven’t done for a while. I saw a skin that was a must have for Whimsy, for a post she has planned coming soon, and then my eyes were captured by the skins I have blogged in the past, but the more creative ones of the range.
This is only one of the ones I just had to have, and with it’s sequined look detailing framing the eyes it is over the top yummy.
Speaking of yummy, I have to go now, Ashia just logged in and she has newness that is to die for.
