 How frickin' awesome is this NEW getup from Indyra Originals!?! And you have several countries from which to choose: Australia, China, France, Germany, Great Britain, Italy, Japan, Russia, South Korea aaaand USA!

It comes with the top (in the standard mesh sizes), shorts (not mesh) and socks (not mesh and in four versions, with black, red, blue and white stripes). You also get, of course, a requisite alpha layer. Then, you get an optional lower alpha and, my favorite, a texture-change hairband. The hairband didn't go that well with the Elvira hairstyle, buuuuttt for you...

 UGH! So cute!

I'm wearing this long hair from lamb called Blush (in Snickers) so that you can properly see the headband. Touch the bow and you get, not only a resizer menu, but also a choice of seven different colors (for just the bow part, not the headband).

It sounds unbelievable, but you get the entire outfit for a mere 325L. It awaits you here!

And what can I say about Indy? I'm in love with Indy. She's definitely in my "favorites" folder. 

Lastly, it's 4:28am here. Perhaps I get too excited about SL fashion, yeah? I blame it on the two cups of coffee and Indyra Seigo (of Indyra Originals) and Inka Mexicola (of Essences). My fiance says I am like a toddler in that I fight sleep for no apparent reason. Maybe... 

Well, now I'm just rambling and stalling. Sorry. Enjoy shopping!!

A demain...

EDIT: I now remember what I forgot to tell you! Indyra Originals has this awesome policy whereby group members receive 50L in store credit for each purchase of a new release!

Oooooh my gawd. 

It's been two days since I've blogged! But that wasn't for lack of trying. 

For some reason, I hated everything I put together. EVERYTHING. It took me four tries before I got to this, and that inspiration finally came because of Inka Mexicola's new skin, Indy! Isn't she a beauty? And if you head on over to her blog, and her Flickr photostream, you'll see even better pictures of Indy. I can't wait to see the full package! I'm going to be evil right now and not tell you WHEN it will be released.

My pictures also reveal the newest tone from Essences. Native was previously the darkest tone, but nooooow this tone, called simply "dark," is the darkest available! And it's a great tone. I asked Inka if she could conceive and if she would ever create a darker tone, and probably three minutes later, she showed me a picture of a darker Indy. Of course, I was immediately sold! And here's the good news: this dark tone will now be included with every skin Inka releases from this point forward. I think that's penance enough for not revealing the Indy release date, yeah? :P

Do you wonder why I wear Shakeup so much? Well, first of all, I love matte lipstick. So far, Shakeup has the best matte lipsticks. (I also like PIDIDDLE's mattes). Secondly, for 199L, I have never gotten less than 60 lipsticks (for instance, 20 colors with three teeth options) in a pack. Finally, they fit most of my skins.

I think that's it! I'm off to mess around with my shape to effect another face out of Indy!

/me breathes in deeply and sharply. I'm doomed to forget SOMETHING; there's just so much!

Well...  to celebrate her Facebook page reaching 1,000 likes, Gogo (of Juicy Bomb) shared five of her studio windlight settings with her readers! I'm using one of those that I edited just a tiny bit. It didn't need editing, but I like messing around with stuff. THANK YOU, GOGO! I am very thankful for those because I SUCK at making my own windlight settings.

I usually don't mention my shape in my credits. That's because, unlike skins, for example, the shape I have used in almost all of my entries for the past three months is modifiable. Because it's modifiable, I'd hate to say "This is this shape" and have readers think their face and body shape will resemble mine in any way. It's mod, and because I like to make stuff my own, I've messed around with my staple shape. That shape is Izzie's Cassandra shape, which is including in each Cassandra skin tone pack. Izzie always includes a shape in her skin packs, AND those shapes are always modifiable. This time, however, I'm using another shape called Dublin from Shakeup! While Carrie finds another mainstore location for Shakeup!, her shapes and other products are on sale! This shape, and the others, are on sale for only 100L! I provided the link above; use it frequently! Well, I didn't use it freely because I bought three at the same time! For only 100L each, you can buy several of her awesome shapes. 

Now, hair. This [men's] hair is from the Haaaiiir Faaaiiiir 2012! I just had to provide a shot of the hair from the side, so you could see the awesomeness of the hair AND the hairbase. This is now one of my favorite pixie cuts, along with Exile's Nina and Burley's Ethan. This is what I used to get around the HF2012; it really made things much easier.

Finally, I think, is the ring. You can get the ring and earrings in a single set at the current TDR Blue collection. You'd have to go to the Kunglers Extra store to complete the set with the matching necklace; it's 70L just as the set is at TDR Blue. So what are you waiting for? GET!

If I've forgotten something, I will update the entry tomorrow. I'll also add the pictures to my Flickr page and update some SLurls!

Why not whip out the big guns (Pout 2) for Gala? She has been sitting in my inventory, waiting for the perfect time for her debut. What better time than the One Voice event?

We've good news; we (all of us - you and me and everyone between) have raised 10,000 dollars for Gala's legal costs! No, not LINDEN, but DOLLARS. That is so damned awesome. I'm very glad to hear it. It's not even been a week, and we've all the way until the 22nd to double what we have now (and hopefully more). Great job, everyone! *clap clap*

Oh. Isn't this bag adorable? I thought it was the perfect bag, resembling a skirt, to go with my skirted outfit. I tried to pair the outfit with perhaps seven other bags before I got to this one, and I knew it was the right one. 

Now... black walnut ice cream, here I come!
