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 .

Wow I have been behind in blogging this past week, but what a behind to have to be behind with right?
Hair Fair 2010 sponsored by A Fashionable Secret Admirer this year, is steadily getting underway, don’t worry about not finding out info, you can totally hit the Subscribo at The Deck Landing point, or Savoir Hair in world for updates.
Speaking of hair, there is some beautiful hair by Tiny Bird released in the past couple of days, seriously I love the names Autumn gives her styles, they always allude to far off romances, and remind me of old films. This one is named as such, and the style is just glorious for either spring days, or daring nights.
Not only excitement about the new hair, but DAYUM! Autumn is making clothes, and such beautiful clothes too. This dress is adorable, from it’s ribbon tied straps to its bell shaped bottom. I also love the fact that it goes so well in the black with my newish shoes from SMERSH…totally fell for these from a PIG ad, and had no plans to wear them with anything in particular. They are a bit glittery once you buy them, which I have to admit I didn’t notice…but all in all that they go so well with this dress made them even more delightful.
The next mixy matchy pieces are from SySy and Doppelganger. The shorts are great in various colours, and without prims make a perfect choice for laggy areas if needing to deprim. The tops are totally fun colours, and glittery also, but in the day looks work, but can also be imagined adding some fuller gown skirts or tule, and making a more stylish evening look, even under a nice suit with an open or deeper plunged jacket would work.
I am sporting two of the latest do’s from Fri.day in the next two pics, and they also work from day to night…I must say that the soft brown texture on the third pic left had me doing a double take and thinking of that girl from the O.C. The new skin by League – Taylor – totally had me reminded of her at a glance.
Wearing the sexy new dresses from SK Designs, these are a shirt like look, which works on their own, or you can wear over pants as I did with a really beautiful belt from Indyra Originals. The shoes I have on are the newest from SLink, a mix of ankle boot and strappy heel, they have a with socks or stockings option, or plain built in foot. The ability to have them open toed or closed makes them very durable, and once you activate the socks option, you use the colour picker to tint, giving you probably hundreds of options if not more.
The gemstone fronts come with their own hud that you can change the colours of the gemstones with, personally I would have loved a gemstones off option too for more casual wear, but if too casual I wouldn’t have been able to drag my boa out of storage and strut around like a peacock.
The gemstones and their sparklyness reminded me of the Fever lingerie from Twisted and Spoiled, the perfect accompaniment to the stunning Taylor skins. The bodies and faces on the skins by League are just gorgeous, with a huge amount make up choices and hair base, cleavage and freckles…with the added advantage of a pubic hair cover up lol. I kid you not, reverse pubic hair, seeing as the skins have a small strip Nena made a cover for lower more revealing clothing to be able to be worn. The cover comes on both tattoo layers and underpants…so if you don’t use V2 viewer all the time you can log it in, put the layer on and log back into your regular, it will stay there and be visible…just don’t forget if you change tones or skins.
Nena promised though that the next set will be shaved as default, because it gets tricky otherwise 😛 – you have to now it is in print you promised lol.
Just remember DEMO DEMO DEMO and you will be all sorted 🙂 .

What Lola wants Lola gets
I have had a semi trailer parked on my platform for weeks now, I could have just left the box out to remind me, but I honest to goodness think that the truck is the most awesome rezzer.
It is in fact the rezzer for Not so Bad, the furniture and prefab store that creates some incredibly beautiful items. Most of which have a Moroccan dynamic, which is evident in the Riad style so traditionally of that culture. A Riad is a house designed around an inside garden, and the Riad themed houses by NSB are as beautiful as the real thing.
There are different doorways, and hidden rooms. With a magnificent rooftop and pool area with its own built in poses. I definitely love the garden bath with its floating petals, such a beautiful build that you will spend many hours luxuriating in.
The reason I am showing these items, is not just because of how beautiful they are, but also because for another few days all of the Prefabs and NEW Beds are 20% off. So if you have been oooing and aaaing and haven’t taken the plunge, now is definitely the time.
The prefabs are gorgeous, but my favourite items would have to be the furniture, the rich fabrics just add an incredible amount of class to any home, even if you don’t have one of theirs. The true to style tile like edging to the sofa shown blows me over everytime I look at it, and the sheer curtains on the four poster bed are just gorgeous.
I actually used the poses from the Reflections set by aDORKable for the standing poses in that pic, they were perfect in their column/doorway style. I hope everyone got their Gift Kite poses over the weekend, if not they are still out but shhh I didn’t say anything :P.
The so pretty bodysuit I have on by PIG was a 50L Friday item, but I went over tonight to make sure that it was also buy-able, on landing their lucky board was an S and I won the same body suit in another unique colour, how wicked is that lol. Then I did find them on the wall in different colours, so even though you can’t get this shade of pink there are other lovely colours available, and if you can get out of there without buying lots like I did, then you are very strong. Their clothing line is a mix of what I wish to see more of in SL for different reasons, and also it is just all very pretty.
The other clothing items are some of the pieces I bought tonight and in the past, the shorts come with cuffs for both men or women, which makes them perfectly uni-sexy. The other outfit, comes with so many options that I just had to wear folder at first and go from there. Not only opaque versions but also sheer. As you can see on the left that is one of the options of the outfit on the right, but with the added benefit of girdle and suspended stockings by Maitreya.
The outdoor settings are just as fabulous, this set having seats for four, with either single sits or couples, and I love the table across the middle, earlier I had my make up set out and it totally felt like a spa day. Just the kind of set to invite some friends over to use with you, and then paddle in the pool to cool off.
Moving on to other newness, first off how cute are the latest shoes/booties by Tesla – yay for her being back. These shoes reminded me of Rachel Breaker’s store and it was just after I got my new carousel, so I took Tesla over there for her to see the amazing creations of Rachel, and to give my new boots a whirl around the grid…they are like clompy bowling shoes with heels.
The nails I have on are a recent release from Page 3, Jag sent them over and we chatted lots about them, and then next thing you know they went back to the drawing board and more was added. These are wicked cool. I am only showing one hand, because that’s how I roll :P.
Ok so not only do you get a fully packed hud that allows you to change nailpolish colours, but you also get FOUR tips versions, the gold and silver are WICKED – I am biased because that was my idea lol – then you have the word rings, with other rings all set out to wear in four different metals, and with or without words or without extra rings, OMG so much choice.
Lastly but again SO MUCH CHOICE the about to be released skins by LeLutka are just amazing for value. By our calculations – ok really Mels I just threw numbers at him – there would be 712 options of skins if you were to buy the fat pack of one tone. 8 skin with nude lips, then 11 lipsticks on the tattoo layers. It is very important you realise that this is a V2 compatible skin, without v2 you will only be able to wear the skins with nude lips which are still gorgeous. Then you have cleavage options and pubic options so combining all that together gives you hundreds of looks. Seeing as the math took into account the pubic, lets half that for what you can actually see – unless a nudist – that is still 356 choices for each day, and such a beautiful skin to start off with.
Also with Lola there are two hair attachments to go with the hairbase look, one being a stunning backcombed bun with braided crown, and the second – not shown – is a floral garland half pulled pony that I love but wasn’t dressed for. I have a feeling that tomorrow is going to be a very full day at LeLutka, not too sure if all will happen at once, but I do know that there are some incredible clothing pieces about to be released from over there also, so make sure you are on standby if a diehard LeLutka fan.
The Mouth of Lola is different than previous, so if the wider lips look hasn’t been your thing in the past, then Lola is going to be right up your alley. The hairbase is exceptional as usual, I am often seen only in it if you run into me, I did also notice a few changes to the body that you may or may not notice depending on your experience with LeLutka, but definitely all positive changes. When it comes down to it, Lola is an incredibly striking skin. Do not forget to demo first, and make sure if you do not already use it, you get an updated V2 viewer before tomorrow.

Biker Straps
Wow this week has been flying by…getting everything sorted for The Deck’s first birthday, I have already seen some of the beautiful items being given over the weekend, and I am floored by the generosity of the creators. I even found the cutest balloon fountains to decorate with, but as they are particles I am keeping them mostly out of avatar range so that no one ends up in a grey squares attack…I remember being new and poofers were all the rage, and you would tp somewhere and suddenly be swarmed by them. It used to scare the hell out of me.
The new dresses by Luck Inc are so much fun to play with, I totally distracted myself the other day playing with combinations just with themselves. Due to the layering and options, I could have gone on to introduce other items and totally gotten lost. The style has a semi open buttoned look that is great for casual running around, add a belt etc, but then you have the pulled down and under effect that reveals, well lots really. By adding one of the other layers from a different colour you get in my opinion a great contrast look.
Even more exciting was not only do the colours come in a great range, but they were easily matchable to the knee high boots from LAQ. I really like not only the two tone look ( the gold boots have black leather inserts) but also the bikerish style with the leather straps and that biker chaps combination but in footwear…you know the ones…those leather pants that use another colour instead of a cutout.
I am wearing the unBra skin again, I did mention last post that now it has four cleavage options, and because of that I had to wear something that showed off my favourite which are one and two, this time due to the open nature of the dress I went with the more relaxed version in the one. It is fabulous to have that kind of option, to be able to look at an outfit and say ‘what is keeping them together?” if nothing then you just need to go with the more relaxed version if there is one, and if totally confined then enhancement is definitely the way to go.
I am at IOW right now watching a gathering of residents have a social chat, it is lovely when sims are still that way after so many years….have a great week all, and don’t forget to come visit me at The Deck over the weekend.

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.

Fudge
I was feeling chocolatey tonight, has to do with having a headache probably…when all else fails crave something that will make it worse lol.
A few weeks ago G’field sent out some boots as a group gift, they were so pretty I had to go and grab some more, in wearable for me colours. I really like how they set up their shoes/boots, in mini packs of tones that work together at a saving, as well as being able to get in singles or a megapack. These are so lovely with everyday fashion, but have that total steampunk Victorian look down pat, that if you tend to go for theme dressing, they will come in handy for sure.
Some newness and older pieces mixed together. The League Thermal collection has been added to recently, and if you didn’t give it a go the first time, you should so totally go back and rethink it. The textures on these pieces are just so snuggly, and the skirts and tops mix so well together with other pieces, as shown here with the new Early morning cardigans by Fishy Strawberry. The cardigans come with or without shirt underneath in black, but I went for both with and without but with the added turtleneck in cashmere by BOOM.
The billy denim shorts are another new item from FS and they do come with a belt, but I opted for without this time around. The great thing about the belt though is that it comes in scripted or MOD versions which is just awesome.
I am a big fan of the clothing pallette of Miel, the colours they stick too work so well when blending their own items together, which just work so beautifully… but then you can also intersperse them with other items from elsewhere along the same spectrum. Such was the case with the newish Urbanity Camo high waisted skirt. The top from the Tulip set of Miels went so well with the Camo skirt I was very happy with the blend.
make the most of the cooler days, because everyone is going to be cranky with the heat, and all of us down here are going to be freezing in the cold, and yeah yeah it doesn’t get that cold according to you lot down here, but it doesn’t mean we don’t suffer and complain :p.

Bedhead
I had an amazing morning, I got to talk to some lovely people, and then went on a journey to a very sparse but thought provoking sim. Bryn Oh’s art is on display and I have no idea whether or not it is a finished area, or there is more to come, but either way I was intrigued by it, Thora even came and checked it out with me once I sent her this pic I took. If you want to check it out, just look in Bryn Oh’s picks and teleport to the World Expo one.
Then it was off and home to take some pics, the first one being a recent release from Nyte n Day, this set is a great staple, you can either wear it as is in its forms, or add lots to it using it as a base, I really like that, and know that using the separate pieces will come in handy in the future.
I am wearing the Shirelle hair by Exile, I am so in love with this hair, it was an instant hit with me, and I ended up chatting with Kavar about it in IM, seems we both have Mums that wore the same style do back in the 60’s. I have pics somewhere of mine with big panda eye make up and platinum hair, so white that I am amazed she still has some.
Cute and vintagey are the Judy heels by Ingenue, with their solid heels and bow fronts they are perfect for many looks. I like that Ingenue has branched off into shoes, making it easier to find footwear for her style of clothing.
Second up we have the beautiful cocktail dress from Page 3, a new to me store that has an incredible range of just about everything…talk about your multi talented designer. Not only clothing and accessories but furniture too, you will also find the fabulous Nails and rings I have on in this post. The nails come with beautiful jewelry, and a hud that allows for silver or gold and different nail colours and french polishes, all very reasonably priced.
This dress has a short and longer version of the skirt, not too long though, definitely a cocktail frock this one, the style is very Audrey Hepburn but I went with a looser hairstyle, and the added Jewelry also from Page 3.
The last pic is a mish mash, combining Nyte n Day with Page 3 and a little bit of DeLa too. The latest styles from Exile are so win, I was finding it really hard to take off one to put on another, and then would fall for the new one just as hard. The collared halter dress is so cute, all I needed was a tennis racket and I would be off to the club, you can wear without the collar also if that is not your thing, and it works so well with either, the sunglasses are also from Page 3 and have many different options in a handy drop down menu, easy to use and perfect to wear.
The Yoga style set from Nyte n Day is so comfy to wear, the pants are great, I have slipped them on a few times in the past week…the top has some nice prim finishes, and layers options, and I would totally have that amazing scene hair if I was doing Yoga at the time I took these pics.
Have a great weekend everyone…..

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…………………………………..

I miss the days when we used to wear a gown at least once a week in Second Life, where did those events go? did people get busier or leave? I know that we often talk about those days gone by, and I do know that people do still go out dancing and on dates in Second Life, and thankfully because of that we still get creators making such beautiful items for us to wear and enjoy.
As soon as I saw the latest hair release from Maitreya I was so glad that I did not already shoot the Nadera Gown the other day when showing other DCNY items…my bloggers fate I guess, because the hair and gown go hand in hand together.
The stunning french twist hairstyle is so incredibly beautiful and yet you could easily wear it to the office as well…a tight updo such as this is always a crowd pleaser, and this one definitely had me at hello, as Mel loves updo’s and he really likes Maitreya hair textures as he thinks they look so soft and pretty.
The Nadera Gown was another item shown at the fashion show recently, that time in a gorgeous navy blue, all the colours are as breathtaking as each other…so whichever one draws you in you will be more than happy. The plunging back with the crisscross lacing is stunning, and the fishtail bottom just divine. Make sure you have a look at this gown and all of the other beautiful formal and semi formal items at DCNY when you are next in need of something so beautiful.

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.
