A Little Spring Time

I managed to get into Fameshed and wanted to show you possibly my favorite outfit from the event this round. Mutresse has been steadily making a name for itself with beautiful mesh clothing items with lots of options and this spring time fresh outfit is no exception to that rule.

If you are not familiar with Fameshed,(website link) - then you are in for a treat, a chance to see some of the top mesh designers doing their thing. There are clothing items, shoes, hair, jewelry and also home decor and furniture items. They are sold at regular price  however, so don't expect a discount.

Mutresse is offering this adorable pair of shorts and tank, sold separately, this round. They are, as you can see, made to wear together. You actually get two versions of the shorts, one for wear with the tank and one for wearing with other things or by itself. Both clothing pieces come with a hud that allow for color, metal changes etc. The one for the tank is especially detailed, the little knots of the shirt can be changed independently as can the pretty embroidery on the bodice and the lace trim on the hem.

I am not a huge mesh clothing fan but I just really loved this set for some reason. It is very much like something I would wear in real life on a spring day.

The bag I'm carrying is by Je Suis and the animation inside animates only the right hand which makes it very usable with poses or with an ao.

The bag comes with the accessories you can see there, scarf, lotion, sunglasses etc, and is resizable via script if you so desire.

I am also wearing a pair of wedge flip flops which I picked up at Reign this past weekend as part of the Saturday sale. I checked this morning and they were still there but I can't promise that is the case now, at least not for 75L. These are pink but they also are available in a few other colors, made for Slink Medium bare feet.

The embroidery on this top is so realistic, just wonderful!

I am wearing another hair by Emo-tions, the Lora hair which consists of the included hairbase and the braided and curly hair. I thought it was perfect for a casual morning walk or such. It comes with the bands in black but I just did a little retexturing magic to make them pink using a patent leather texture I had in inventory.  (Right click, edit, edit linked prims, very carefully select only the parts you want to change, go to texture tab, select texture etc. I suggest if you try this on something of yours to always make a copy first, just in case. I did, and I've been building and such for a long time now)

I am also wearing more jewelry from Earthstones - this is the "Simply Put" Jewelry set in Amethyst. I was a little sad that there's no Rose Quartz or Tourmaline in this set that would have matched a little better but I think the amethyst is quite nice and not too matchy. I'm also wearing the Zaia hand bracelets I showed you yesterday, this time in MoonstoneAmethyst, also from Earthstones.

 

I'm still wearing the gorgy face Jade skin in Sunkissed by PXL. I have tons of skins I bought at Skin Fair but this one is hard to take off!  This is the petal pink version.

Here's another peek at the cute wedges I'm wearing. I normally don't like to just show feet but, it's how it turned out this time, lol.

Also want to give a quick little shout out to Hello Dave, nail polish appliers. I'm wearing a polish on both fingers and toes from the Spring Mix set.

And that's it. Fameshed is open for this round until almost the end of April - I'm not sure of the exact date. After that the Mutresse tank and shorts will be at the main store, link above.

I honestly am not even sure where to start with this post, so I guess I'll start here with this amazing skin from PXL. It's been a long time since I've loved a skin from PXL, but this one I really honestly do. 

This is Jade in Sunkissed and is part of the special skin set that was offered at Skin Fair.  The set came with four make ups, a plethora of eyebrow, lipgloss and other types of tattoo layers etc. This is the petal pink, and believe it or not, I haven't added one thing to it other than the moles that come with it. That is how much I love this skin. She is so very pretty, elegant, charismatic, just ... as  I said above, amazing in my opinion.

I missed "Mesh Tuesday" yesterday but I decided to go ahead with my planned post, so here's the beautiful and interesting "Rome's Messenger" mesh dress from Soedara. When I grabbed it yesterday, this color, in a set with a black version was offered at 75L. I don't know if that offer is still good.

I don't know much about ancient roman costume other than what I've seen in movies but this seems to me a reasonable facsimile of a roman toga, especially of a young and pretty servant girl.  It's simple and yet full of little details like the wrinkles on the bodice and the shadows of the skirt.I do recommend you wear a pair of system panties if you are feeling a bit modest, as I was.

 

 This post is partially inspired by two relatively new releases. The new hand bracelets  from Earthstones called Zaia, which come in sets for either the Slink Casual or Elegant hands, is one of them. They are metal change and you can purchase a fatpack of stone choices or single options. This is the quartz version with gold metals to match the toga. Back in the day I was a huge fan of their older versions of slave bracelets so these made me incredibly happy.

The other item is these jeweled shoes by Sax Shepherd Designs. They are called Mata Hari. I bought the Leather Basics Pack and the hud included offers jewel choices, leather choices, sole choices and metal change. They are made for Slink feet and as you can see, absolutely gorgeous.

 

My hair is the Daisy style from Emo-tions and a click of the hair lets you decide whether to show the daisies and metal decorations or not. It's such a pretty style and suitable for all kinds of styles. I do wish that the metals and daisies were texture change but that's just me loving to have choices. It's a wonderful hair just like it is. It includes a hair base to make the look finished.

My jewelry is from Maxi Gossamer, and I chose the Karina Court necklace and earrings because the style sort of matches the look of the hand bracelets. They are texture change and metal change and if you notice in a couple of my shots like a boob I missed changing one earring. I used the gold/white settings to also match the hand bracelets.

I'm sure most servant girls of Rome were not so bedecked with jewels or wore high heels but we can imagine, right? I used a shadow setting for my windlight to experiment and I think it came out pretty well. Hope you enjoyed the post. Details and slurls below.

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!

These items are almost always worn and rarely changed.

Cinderella dressed in "Yella"! - Skin Fair part 2 - Glance Skins

Cinderella dressed in yella,
Went upstairs to kiss her fella.
By mistake she kissed a snake,
How many doctors will it take?
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, etc.

Back many long years ago, that was a rhyme that my friends and I used to jump rope to, it came into my head when I was making a title for this post.

I'm showing a beautiful skin from Glance at Skin Fair with this outfit.

 

I'm wearing the Aina skin in skin tone 4 with brown brows. I love the classic chic beauty of this skin, she's so gorgeous and sophisticated, in my humble opinion.. The moles I've added are from the Jade skin pack from PXL at Skin Fair. But they look just as good on Aina. :)

 

This adorable and sexy dress is from Graffitiwear. I'm becoming a real fan of the various offerings there. It's called the Yellow  Birdsong dress. It comes with appliers, plus a modesty layer etc in case you need them. The skirt fits very nicely in my opinion. I went with all gold accessories to match it.

I'm wearing hair by Milk here,  it's the Star Child hair which I bought in the Essentials pack. I love the side swept hair and the way it settles gently over the  shoulder.

 My hair rose is from a head band by Le Fil Casse and modded, making the band part transparent and retexturing/coloring the rose part to match my dress.

The hip belt is an offering at Collabor88 by Maxi Gossamer - the Tokyo Party Night hip chain. I set it to gold and white because I wanted to loosely match it with my other accessories. It has several other texture options, however.

I'm wearing a gorgeous jewelry set by Cae at the Liaison Boutique called Perula The set includes the necklace and earrings I'm showing here plus another necklace in a longer length. You also get a hud with several metal, pearl and gemstone choices. I stayed with gold, white and diamond.

My shoes are also a Collabor88 item, this time by Hucci. I chose the toast color with the gold studs to coordinate with the rest of my outfit. These are the Riverton sandals for Slink High feet.

Nail polish appliers are by Fishy Strawberry, the Contrast set, using the gold selection. I'm wearing bracelets from Eye Candy, The owner's profile says that she's leaving sl for a while so I think these are no longer available though the link does go to her marketplace shop. The set is called Hearts and Chains in gold. 

And that's all she wrote. Hope you all like the post.
