Skin Fair! - part 1 - The Sugar Garden Eun-Seo

Well, I ventured out to Skin Fair and promptly overloaded my brain with all the many different looks and creative expressions of this ephemeral thing we call beauty. It's three sims worth of goodness, my dears, and you can grab a large number of demos from the Skin Addiction group notices to save you some time. However if you're like me, that will just make things harder because there's so much good stuff there.

The link above will take you to the Skin Fair official web page where you can find a map and slurls to the event. It lasts from the 14th, yesterday, until the 30th.

As it says there, please DO strip down in terms of scripted objects etc. MODA, one of the sponsors of the event has offered a script free outfit including a mesh hair as a gift which you can grab in the notices of the group mentioned above or from a board at the event. I wore part of that outfit, the pants and shoes and hairbase, and an older hair of mine I could strip the script out of easily and had no problems navigating the fair and passing the script counters at the entrance to the event. I also used the built in ao that firestorm has and just dropped in a walk and a stand, and used that rather than my regular ao, so I didn't have to walk like a duck and still could be low script.

But now, let me show you the first skin I bought. In a sense this is new to me, since I have always felt that The Sugar Garden's skins were a little too doll like for my taste. But I really liked this offering and so here you go. I am wearing this in tone E. Please note that you do have to go to the main store and grab the appliers because they don't come with the skin. You do get tons of brow options, a tintable beauty mark layer, tintable freckles, two body types and busty or non busty options.

 

Her face is just so sweet, it's irresistible. I'm also a Kpop fan and the name Eun Seo rang bells with me. It made me wonder if the name might be after Kpop idols? Like Eunji from APink or Seohyun from Girl's Generation?  Just a wild thought. Anyway, she's precious and I love her. I know it's the style to show off the body with new skins but I'm just going to leave that to you going and trying it on yourself.

 

I went today and picked up the V2 of the Ghetto Booty which I'm wearing here, little bit  less junk in the trunk in this version, little bit less thickness in the thighs. It's made for a 0 body fat/0 belly size avi but I cheated a little with about 3 on the body fat slider and thought it still looked fine. I put it on  before I put the alpha layer on and the main differences I saw between it and the avatar body was curvier more realistic thighs and the same for the derriere.

I'm wearing clothing from Sn@tch. As  I mentioned to my great happiness, Sn@tch has begun making Ghetto  Booty applier clothing and these jeans are actually in the riot vendor. So if you get some friends together you could snag a whole pack of colors with the cuffs and the applier for the GB (or system layers) for around 50L

The top with included tango hud is also in a riot vendor with a bunch of colors available for a tiny price with enough people gathered. I really love the sweet texture collar on the top as well as the sculpted sleeves that ... like the sculpted pant cuffs make these items look finished. I cannot stress enough that I really wish more designers making applier inclusive clothing would not skip the little details like this. Small touches can have a big impact and make the outfit look finished properly.

 

The one problem I had with wearing these two pieces as a set is that there's no underpant applier for the GB so that the shirt  looks properly tucked in. It's no big deal and certainly can be worn like this with a little bit of tummy showing, I just mention in the interest of completeness.

The hair I'm wearing here is from Eater's Coma. It's Hair #23 in Chestnut and I can tell already it's going to be a firm favorite. I just love how it sits on the head and against the shoulders.

I'm wearing a hairbase with it from Illmatic, the smoothed baby hairs base in Chestnut that just so happens to match very well. You can't get these bases in singles, you have to buy the whole pack but I think it's so worth it to give that little extra touch.

 

My jewelry is from Izzie's. This is the Butterfly Jewelry set in Creme which is on offer at the Liaison Boutique. There are other colors available but I picked this creme color to pick up the browns and ivories in the rest of the outfit. It matches so well, there are even butterflies in the print on the jeans!

The set comes with earrings, bracelets, rings, and the necklace in three lengths. I'm wearing the medium length here.

I also just want to mention real quick that my nail polish is from elephante poses. The shop is having a sale on selected poses, cosmetics and nail appliers - half off! This is from the Cruel Summer set and I used the same polish on my toes as well.

 

Hopefully this picture shows you how pretty and delicate this jewelry set is and how nice these nail polish appliers are. I really love them both!

Incidentally all my poses for this post are from elephante as well, but I do want to mention that another pose shop is having a sale also, Exposeur, so lots of great poses on offer for cheap this weekend from both places.

I'm wearing Slink hands and feet of course, the casual set for my hands and the high feet. My shoes are by Hucci, the new Payson sandals.  Here's a detail pic so you can see how awesome these are.

It's also 25L Tuesday

25L tuesday started out as a Gorean or Fantasy Role Play event but in my opinion it's well worth checking out, no matter how mainstream you may think you are. Because there's always some very very nice things to find.

Here's the 25LTuesday blog.

I'm not going to talk much about the clothes that are on offer because there's only about 3 hours left until it's Wednesday and theoretically all the goodies will be gone then. But the idea is simply that every tuesday a selection of designers put out at least one item priced at 25L.

This week there's a little more than that and also the day is sponsoring RFL. As in buy an item for 25l and the proceeds go to RFL. Not too shabby eh?

 

This picture is basically why you don't want to skip 25L Tuesday. 

That house? 25L item at Virtual Whimsy It comes with most of the garden flowers and trees that you see as well.

 The small tree in the far left corner, 25L item from Tiar

The arched path out in front which I forgot to take a closer shot of, is 25L item from United Inshcon.

 

 The pair of lions and the bench with planters are two separate items, both 25L apiece from Poliak's Emporium. And they are animated.

 

 

Okay okay, you got me. I cheated a little bit. The chair, rug and table with books are not from 25LT, instead they are from CoLab and the whole set is 60L. But Roawenwood, the maker, is on the 25LT list   The books on the floor with the cat and reading pillow is another CoLab item from Poliak's Emporium.

 

That hutch there in the back is from Fabled. 25LT item.

 

This sideboard here is also a 25LT item from Fabled.

The basket is a 1L item from Circa.

On top of the sideboard is one of my favorite things from this 25LT. It's a Healer's Carousel from Kei's Spot. The jars are editable and contain "herbs". When clicked the jar gives information on the herb it contains. Seriously cool imho.

 

This Gossip Breakfast table is also from Kei Spot. It gives you various items like a tea cup to go with the animations. The flowers on the mantel are the 25L item from DDD.

 

I know most people don't put a pergola inside the house but the pinkish tones and shape seemed to go well here. This also is a 25L item from Kei Spot.

 

Here's a few shots of me. My harem-esque outfit is one of the 25LT items from Una's 

 It comes with the texture top, mesh bottom, hip belt, necklace (with or without sound) and a bracelet. My only complaint is that I wish the maker had taken the time to make a boob applier as well.

 

I am wearing Slink flat feet and sandals from Pure Poison. Over the weekend these were sold to group members at half price, three colors for $125L. Group membership is free and there are tons of gifts out front. I don't know if the half price deal is still going on or if it was just for the weekend however.

 

I'm wearing the Emma hair from Wasabi Pills in Wild Honey. Skin is Evon in Dark Tan in natural (fatpack comes with all appliers) from Lara Hurley skins. Lipstick layers are Ginevra from Izzies in dark red layered under Venetian Red Mizu Lipgloss from Mock Cosmetics. I'm also wearing the Winged Shimmer Eyeshadow (Latte) from Harley fatpack in Latte by Pink Fuel

My eyes are the Promise eyes in Glass from Ikon.

My poses are from !bang and Exposeur.

Backdrop for last three shots is from KaTink, part of the Calas Spring set.

Poses with Furniture are part of that furniture piece. You have time to get yourself some bargains yet. :)
