I took a little trip over to Suicide Dollz

A few days ago I went over there and looked around. I have to say that I dunno, maybe it's my general Meh mood lately, but it seems like to me that everyone is making a lot of the same thing. There wasn't a lot I wanted over there. I did pick up a few things though and here's an outfit I made from a couple of my purchased.

These leggings, lol. The minute I saw them I knew I wanted them but somehow I did not notice the way they dip down in the back. I don't usually indulge in back cheek flashing but, here you go, Enjoy! Funnily enough, the leggings are by Cheeky! It is to be found @ Suicide Dollz, however,  until the event closes.

 

I've paired them with this cute top  by Vendetta called Cruella's top. The ruffle bit is a separate modifiable attachment so you can get it to fit how you like it. Again this item is at the Suicide Dollz event til it closes. 

I'm being a little mean here, lol, cause my shoes are one of the pairs offered by House of Hucci at the March 21Shoe event. They are no longer available, but I really wanted to wear them and show them off. So, all I can say is, mark your calendars for the 21st of April. For one day, several designers will offer an exclusive two for one shoe set. Here's the website if you want more info on the event.

Anyway, these are called the Talasea sandal and are made for Slink's high mesh  feet. I really really hope that Hucci will be releasing these in more colors cause they are really pretty.

 

I was feeling nostalgic so I'm wearing an older hair by Truth called Ricci. I don't even know if it's still in the shop but it's still one of my favorite styles with the color changeable streaks etc. I'd really love it if Mr Hawks revisited some of these older styles in mesh. And added a little flexi to the mix.

My other accessories are older too, except for my earrings. The bangles are by Boom - Bangled Mess - Lipstick. The necklace is by A & M, part of the Messed Memory Wire set in Magenta. I tinted it a bit to make it a darker shade of pink. The shop no longer has an inworld location, the link points to their Marketplace store. My earrings are by Pomposity. I am  coming to really enjoy the items from this store and look for new designs often. These are the Phat Hooker earrings, which are color change on touch.

I'm wearing a brand new skin though, the much talked about and really gorgeous Quiana skin by The Skinnery. It's still  only available at Skin Fair for a few more days. I'm wearing this in the Honey tone.

 

 I think she's beautiful and realistic and has a lot of charm and character. I especially love the nose for some reason. The Skinnery is located on Sim 2 @ Skin Fair.  The event lasts through the 30th so you still have time to go look around and grab yourself a great skin.

The skin comes with variations of cleavage, eyebrows, Tango and Lush appliers, face glow, blush and a modifiable set of lip tattoos so you can make your own lipsticks. It also comes with a couple of clear gloss layers. As I said, I really love her so I hope you'll check her out!

And that's it for me for now. Hope you enjoyed the post! Thanks for reading!

If It's Not One Thing - It's Another...

The last few days have made me feel as if I've been through the ringer. and that's why there's been no update til now. My laptop came with both the Intel integrated graphics AND an nvidia graphics card, and this computer was purchased specifically for using with second life. Unfortunately, the nvidia card doesn't seem to be working any more. I was hoping I could just replace the card, but that looks like to be more of a problem to do than I had hoped. I have a desktop that needs some repairs so I'm going to hopefully get that one repaired and use that for sl so as not to burn out the integrated graphics on my laptop and turn it into an expensive and ugly paperweight.

Meanwhile... well here's some fashiony stuff.

 

Here's me staring at you all from out my new eyes from Ikon. 

I've been a fan of Ikon almost since he opened and I really like these Promise eyes which are mesh and come with a hud for adjusting size and position. These are the color called "Glass".

 

 

Couple shots of the full look. Please excuse the pixelation etc, since as I said I'm having problems with my comp at the moment and that's not helping my snapshots look good.

My Latest Craze - Piercings...

One of the many things I enjoy about Second Life is the opportunity to "Try on For Size" different concepts, body modifications, life styles even that I might not want to try in First Life.

For a long time I've been curious about different types of piercings in SL but other than earrings and a belly ring I'd pretty much stayed with just curious.

But recently a brand called "Cute Poison" has really caught my eye because their piercings are cute, well done, modifiable, and come with a texture change hud that you can use to change the various parts of the piercing group to match your mood or outfit.

So, I've found two piercings that I plan to be wearing a lot from this brand, well three really but I'm only showing two.

The Stellar Piercing combines a sort of bindi type center star and stud arrangement with pretty studs and stars around the eyes. In First Life, I'd be -terrified- to attempt to get this kind of piercing set up, too close to the eyes and as a newly diagnosed Diabetic, I am just  not that crazy about having needles all over my face.

But it's so pretty here!

 

(Picture of me wearing the above described piercing, credits and links below)

I also am wearing the Quixotic Piercing which is again stars and studs against the collarbone area in a pretty and becoming arrangement. Imagine if you could just stick these on and they'd stay?

 

(Please ignore the slight disconnect between my boobs and my skin, sometimes matching is the bane of my existence )

Finally I bought a Hip Accent Piercing set for when I wear jeans or pants that are low... so pretty and again, I'd never buy them or get them in First Life. I've read too many horror stories. eek.

I'd really love more colors on these piercings, so I'm hoping Sae Luan, the owner behind Cute Poison will make more. :D

And just because I can, here's my total look today.

Makeup Layers -
Lipgloss - Pout 50 percent Berry Smoothie from Pink Fuel by Mochi Milena (part of the Pinks Glossy Pout collection)
Lashes - MC Falsies Pack 1 from Mon Cheri by Freya Oliveri - I am in love with these lashes, they are mesh, come with a hud for lots of eyelash style choices and colors. I'm wearing the glitter version.
Eyes - Ikon Spectral Eyes Nymph - by Ikon from Ikon Innovia (just a note that these are mesh eyes and they come with a hud for adjusting. I'm thinking I Need a lighter eye color )
Dress - Banje Mesh Cardigan Dresses - Pinks by Blueberry from Blueberryxx Resident. - I am a huge huge fan of this shop which I recently discovered. Lovely mesh creations with Tango/Mirage appliers at reasonable prices. I bought the fatpack, this comes with the cardigan in dark or light versions of the pink in this case, with or without the dress, appliers for all versions and a hud for changing the color of the dress.  In other words I could wear the cardigan with a tank and a skirt or something instead of the dress. so much win.
Jewelry -
Piercings by Cute Poison from Sae Luan.
Earrings and Necklace - Ritzy Shimmer Pearl Necklace and Earrings by MG from Maxi Gossamer
Bracelets and Anklets - though you can't see those - Pearly Girly Leg and Wrist Jizz (lol) from HolliPocket by Holli Thespian.
Shoes - again you can't see them, but they are the Sublime in Teal by NCore from Claire Messenger (i set the heel and bow to pink, made a great match for the dress.)
All of these designers are people I buy from regularly so check 'em out!

Long Time No See

It's been ages since I did a blog post. Partly that's because of real life things - about which more below - and partly because I just haven't been in SL that much.

My best friend and more than friend hasn't been in SL much so I really hadn't had a lot of reason to be there. If you're reading this Paul, I miss you.

But, I'm coming back in world again.

I gave myself a make over, one of probably a million that will happen during the next three months.

 

Photo taken at my island area, I'm wearing Sn@tch sweater, Gawk trousers, Mood Jewelry - I think they are closed now, Catwa Hair, Hush skin, appliers, lola's mirage, luck inc's phat ass, slink's casual hands, pink fuel's pout lipsticks. - click the pic to see it correctly sized
