I wanted to participate in the Mon Tissu contest; I've more than enough MT items in the ol' inventory. However, I just don't have the resources (aka LINDEN) to accessorize the way I wanted and needed to. BUT! This did not stop me from "securing" these awesome jeans. At first, I thought "you have PLENTY of MT clothes; you need MT accessories." And I only had about 300L at the time. But, in the end, these jeans won me over. Thus, I forfeited the lovely fedora here that I really wanted... and the shoes I wanted... and the boots I wanted. Another time, maybe... But I don't regret getting these jeans; they are SO SO perfect. These are my first mesh jeans, and I ain't lookin' back!

I do wish those who can and will compete the best of luck! 

These jeans have belt loops / no belt loops versions for two cuff fits (flats and heels), so you get a total of four versions in five mesh sizes. The fit is pretty damned awesome. I WISH there were jeans that did for my body what these jeans do for Inferna!

FINALLY! You get to see a new face inside this blog! And a pretty face it is; it belongs to my dear, dear friend and splendid blogger, Mikaela Carpaccio! She is such a sweetheart and such a good friend; I was more than thrilled when we got the chance to take these pictures together. Although I'm super excited about showing you these pictures, I am even more excited about the fact that this joint post is only the first of a few we have planned! Make sure to read here to learn what she's wearing (and, generally, read her blog, because I said so! And because her pictures are gorgeous and she's got impeccable style).
 
Bilo's a great store. It may sound odd that I've the same store as Mikaela does, but I too discovered Bilo a while ago (perhaps months ago) but never had the chance to really explore the brand. Chandra Masala, of Bilo, creates colorful, ethnic apparel of mesh (or mostly mesh). So you've seen the two tops we're wearing from Bilo, but what about this dress (first picture on second row) for a mere 50L? MUST. HAVE. DRESS.
 
Enjoy!

This is that Vintage Fair look that I've been wanting to do forever but just felt so intimidated! I mean, look at these gowns! I couldn't think of a more fitting sim than Rustica for these pictures. 

I love this Cohimbra hair. It's really mohawk-ish, so it can be elegant - to go with an elegant get-up - or it can add elegance to a punk look. I'd love the contrast of that sort of outfit with this hair. And the accompanying hairbase is beautiful and IT MATCHES THE HAIR! 

I guess that's really it. As always, I'll add a picture to my Flickr page. But I really need 25 bucks so I can get the year subscription. I'm at 193 photos, methinks, which means I only have seven more until I can post pictures there anymore. :( Damnit. I need a job. It's pretty sad when you want for 25 bucks.

Aaaaaand that's it. :D

You MUST pick up this dollarbie pack from The Plastik immediately! I'm not sure how long it's going to be there, but for now, it's there and up for the taking. It's only one linden, and there are - get this - 20 items for women and 3 items for men. And within those single boxes for women are, in some cases, two variations of the same article of clothing. I went through the pack and liked all gifts for women. There are shorts, shirts, dresses, pants and even eyes. Pick it up!

If loving fri.day hair is wrong, I don't wanna be right. Now, I'm downright sure that Darling Monday is a smart girl, but wtf is THIS nonsense? "...unless a miracle happens and I suddenly have talent in that category [hair]?" The poor girl is confused! She's made tons of hair, and all of them are wonderfully made - beautiful, hip, neat and superbly textured. I think I'll shake her inworld and make her realize the error of her ways. Will you help me? Walk up to her - you and me and all of us - and grab her by the shoulders and shake some sense INTO her and more fri.day hair OUT of her. :D The last picture above is a profile view of the hair so you have evidence of her [temporary, I hope] craziness.

I couldn't decide which look I liked best, so I just used both. I had one look and then wanted to blog several other items, so I just split it all into two looks, not entirely separate. 

You can't see the bottle because of the poses I used, but there is one included with this bodysuit. It's animated, no matter the pose. Thus, I had to be very watchful with the snapshot button. Actually, I think I did take a picture in which you can see the picture. Be warned; here comes an unedited Inferna!


Finally, I've got to mention these wonderful earrings. As with all (not some, but ALL) Amorous items, you get lots of control. You can resize the earrings. You can turn on/off full bright. You can change the color of the metal (bronze and light/medium/dark silver). You can change the color of the leather (gray or brown). And you can change the color of the spikes to nine different colors. All these options for an earring? Why, yes. I was a bit appalled when, on a recent trip, I discovered Urchin, an Amorous piece that was NOT sitting pretty in my inventory. I had to rectify that situation, of course.

I've one more VF2012 look that I'm working on (great transition there, yeah?). I'm so intimidated. Do you ever stall because you just know you can't do justice for the items / tasks involved? GET IT TOGETHER, INFERNA!

Oh man. Thank holy hell for Collabor88's birthday! There's a ton (more than usual) of items that you'll probably have to have. Once I could finally get into it, I bought nearly everything. Shame on me! Be sure to check the SeraphimSL gallery for pictures of items.

I saw this hair on my friend, Melusina Parkin (of Melu Deco) and had to know from whence it came. She revealed that it was created by the shop, Sadistic Hacker. It's an odd name, yet I found this hair there. So don't be too discouraged! :P There are three versions of Nagi available for purchase - one is with long bangs (which I'm wearing), one with short bangs and yet another with a portion of clipped back hair. I'd say that if you are into anime, then you'd probably appreciate this shop.
