I took these pictures inside of an offensively beautiful demo at the Rustica store. It's called "Maison de Ville." 

I decided to change up my skin since I've bombarded you with Indy in the past few days. HOWEVER, I'll probably see Indy again tomorrow because she has finally been loosed! Get your own Indy at Essences now!

A demain...

What is HAPPENING to me? I think I'm starting to like GIMP! *gasp*

Izzie's got a new skin! Her name is Estella, and she introduces two new tones, cocoa and ebony. They both are darker than Izzie's previously darkest tone, mocha, with ebony being the darkest. I am SO happy with this release. As usual, you get a modifiable (and copyable) shape. I love that so much because shapes are so vital for the way you desire to look. You won't find many creators who give you a skin (and, actually, several skins because of options) AND a modifiable shape for 990L. Now, the dark tones (mocha, cocoa, and ebony) only include one eyebrow option. The skin tones that come with more eyebrow options (dark, light, red, and blonde brows with cleavage/non-cleavage versions of each) cost a mere $1,170L! Also inside each skin tone pack are two freckles tattoo layers (face only or body and face), 12 lipsticks on tattoo layers, 12 eyeshadows on tattoo layers, a nail base on the glove layer, a modifiable/copyable shape, and an eyebrow shaper. Izzie Button, I luvs you!

Also, up until now, the group has not been a VIP group. But now it is at a cost of 250L. Don't be bummed; VIP usually implies, and definitely does mean in this case, monthly gifts that are exclusive to group members! One creator comes to mind who charges a group join fee but does NOT give monthly (or any) gifts that I have seen so far. So this is a 250L well spent!

And the Cassia sandals? They are really neat. You can change the color of the leather (brown or black), the color of your nails, the color of your skin, of course, and the color of the toe rings. You can wear a toe ring on BOTH feet, one feet, or none! I love these things!

I HATE when I can't remember which event from which I purchased an item. I will probably dig and dig until I find out where I got this duffel bag from. I'm thinking it was a discontinue sale where all items headed for retirement were only 50L. I could be wrong, but I am definitely going to try to remember this. That's why blogs exists, so you can know what events are really, really worth your time! It's pretty lame to put "ummmm, I can't remember where I got this from!"

I'll update as soon as I find out. Even if it's discontinued, I'd still like to provide as much information as I can!

A demain...

I took these pictures either yesterday or the day before. You expect me to remember what I have recently done? Pfft.

Bottoms: Zebra Jeans in Dark Grey (.:Beatnik:.)

I'll update this entry shortly; I'd like to discuss getting what you pay for.

Showstopper

I know, I know;  I just made Blogger officially hate me.

What I'm wearing:

Skin: Phoebe2 (LAQ)
Hair: Vappu (Tukinowaguma)
Lipstick: Fire (LpD*
Shirt: Chiffon Shirt, Pink Roses (GizzA)
Pants: Sheens' Leather Gray Pants (*The Gentry)*
Boots: Moshi ankle boots with roses (ALEIDA)
Bracelet: Nevermore (LOULOU&CO)*
Earrings: Superspike (Gems and Kisses)*
Necklace: Pearls and Diamonds, white (*JD*)*

* Guess what the items marked with an asterisk have in common? I paid absolutely nothing for them! I am a member of so many shopping and bargain-hunting groups that ... well, I can make pretty decent outfits without spending so much linden (or is it "so many lindens"? Anyway...)

First, the lipstick. I LOVE this group gift lipstick. I'm pretty sure it's featured in at least 75% of my outfits. If not, that's a shame. LpD (Les Petit Details) is one of my many favorite shops as anything "hipster" or quirky is going to demand my attention. I consider my style to be "hipster," so LpD is one of my many favorite "hipster" shops. They also make great skins.

Second, the pants were part of an outfit called "Anastasia's Eyes" from the Gentry. I didn't pay for this outfit, and it is a great outfit. I wish I could remember where I got it from. If I do remember, I will update this blog entry (but I shop so much and stalk bargains like a crazed woman, so I doubt I'll remember. I'm sorry).

All the jewelry items (necklace, bracelet, and earrings) are hunt items! So what shall we take from this little fact? HUNTS = LOVE. I do as many QUALITY hunts (not just hunts) as I can do. The earrings from G&K (Gems and Kisses) will probably be featured in many, many outfits because they are perhaps my favorite pair of earrings. Well... there is Donna Flora ... which is yet ANOTHER creator worthy of her own entry!

(Sorry. Tangent...)

I included a sort of "outline" view of my hair from the profile angle because the pictures really do no justice to the actual hair style. So, by seeing the "outlines" of the hair, you can see the shape of it and, of course, just how great this hair is. By the way, if you're looking for elegant and/or "haute couture" hair, Tukinowaguma is one of the best places to visit. Ooooh, I sense another creator-specific entry.

Do you see where this is headed? If I even mention a brand name, chances are that I am obsessed enough to want to give it its own entry.

I discovered GizzA in my first MOOLTO Sisters Hunt. (Another "btw": If you have never participated in a MOOLTO hunt, you have been missing out. Out of all the hunts I have completed, MOOLTO is my favorites, hands down). When I got to GizzA during the hunt, I decided to look around because ... I'm just not one of those hunters who get the freebie and run. I actually adhere to the very purposes of hunts (to garner exposure for the participating stores). Anyway, I started looking around and actually purchased five items after I picked up my hunt item.


A demain!
