So the boy friend jeans stayed on for this look… I find myself doing that quite often, that an element of the previous look, will return in today’s look. But then again, Maitreya’s BF jeans is such a basic item it’s easily worn in a lot of different combinations.
I also like layering, and I love it when a creator makes the effort to make their stuff on every useful layer. I’m wearing fri.day’s purple striped v-neck here, paired with Boom’s purple wrong size cardi and their latest release, the doll pink Park Life Hoodie. For the shoes I also went with fri.day, I’ve picked their purple basic flats to go with this combination. Ryker Beck ,the creator from Exodi, yesterday sent this lovely Lily skin to her in world group, and it was the base for this purple/lavender/pink set.
Last but not least, with this casual look, I’ve picked Truth’s Brooke, in driftwood, because it’s so very casual as well… like when you just grab your hair, twist it in a loose bun, and stick a pencil in , while half of it falls back on your shoulders. Totally my kind of weekend look.

Oh and I just had to share a close up of the skin:

Oh my… this is so me.. RL me that is.. I love poncho’s/sweaters like this, that I can hide in, curl up on the couch with and loose myself in a good book with a pot of tea… so when I saw this new Lelutka release, it had written my name ALL over it and it begged to be the center piece of today’s look. I’m simply wearing it with a pair of good jeans (in this case Zaara’s Classic indigo) and J’s Long Boots.

Other than that, I’m wearing Artilleri’s Buddy glasses, Exodi’s Lily skin (Dove Fusion faded) and Truth’s Isle hair in barley.

I’m wearing Sacha Frangili’s latest creation today, Pudding in Pisang. It’s a beautiful formal which comes with Sacha’s usual plethora of skirt options. There also is a matching bolero to go with it, but I love the collar on this gown that goes with then strapless top. I’m wearing it with Exodi’s latest release, the gorgeous Kamen set.

Today’s skin is Belleza’s Jesse, and I’m wearing Truth’s Evie

Usually, when I hear a designer being all enthusiast about their own creation, I’m rather skeptical… after all.. if a creator can’t be happy with their own work, why even bother to release it at all….. but when Shannon Carroll from Coquette blogged her pure elegance dress yesterday and I saw the lace top I was like… mhmmmm… ok… lessee :-). And I absolutely don’t regret the purchase. The lace indeed is yummy, and the asymmetrical, sheer skirt is sexy and classy. The little pearl set also comes with the dress as well as a pair of matching shoes.

Shannon has a special offer… if you pick the dress up on Xstreet, this week and this week only, she includes a special version of her Aurora skin (in 4 skin tones) which well never be separately available in her shop. Now I’m not wearing the skin this time, but believe me, it’s as lovely as the dress with soft pink lips and a hint of blue on the eye lids.

Instead I’m wearing Exodi’s Lily today, Hybrid, which is only available at the Fusion sim and my hair today is Lovesick, from Shag

Hybrid Ansar posted this challenge on her blog the other day and meanwhile a couple of plurkers/bloggers have stepped up to it and have created a big girl/ big boy and made then cute as can be….. This is my big girl and I think she’s just creamy!

Credits: Hair Sileny by Truth, skin Lily by Exodi, Mraz scarf (tinted) by Decoy, top Beatha @ Artilleri, and the Old School tattoo is also from Artilleri. Reel movement caters to the pose and AO needs of the curvier shapes, and even if this one is more than just curvy, I found her Luth Brodie’s poses work out pretty fine!

BTW, if you don’t have a blog, yet would like to participate, send me your high resolution full perm photo (minimum 512×512) in world and I’ll post it here for you.

I don’t have to wear business attire when I go to work… but this would be a tad too casual. Too bad, because I’d love to wear this in RL today, since it’ll be another hot, sunny day here. It’s the Colleen dress from Surf Couture in brown with the nude On Stage jeans from Mimikri. I’m wearing them here with Surf Couture’s brown freedom flops,which of course is a total no go for work… but I really love my flops in SL and I should have just bought the fatpack, instead of keep going back for more! I’ve accesorised with Zaara’s silver Urvi earrings and dito Patra bracelet.

I’m wearing Exodi’s Fusion Crossing Exclusive skin (Dove, Hybrid light brow, faded) and Truth’s Lisa in Ivory (tinted the cap, adding a little brown to the grey to match the dress)

Weeeee! I’ve stamped and redeemed all my SummerChoice2009 cards, and even gave away some to friends. Really, these stamp ralleys are a thing I always kinda look forward to, because of the amazingly cute gifts that the participants make for it. Like these trousers from Anuenue. I’m wearing them with the Hykova buttoned tank top in Olive Drab from Whippet & Buck, and Surf Couture’s navy freedom flops. The Maco necklace is from Pdiddle.

I’m wearing Exodi’s Lily Dove Blame and Truth’s Maddy in seaspray.

I love Mimikri’s latest release On Stage, but the combination of the jacket and the hotpants alone is a bit over the top for me…. So I’ve been looking to err, dress it down, while glamming it up… something like that. Make it more wearable instead of just being so hot that there is serious risk of spontaneous combustion.

I’m wearing the jacket with the v-neck white t-shirt from Coco and the white Brindisi slacks from Armidi. The Pele boots (open on the calf!) are from R2 (made by Rei2 Aya… search won’t work, but the shop is in her profile) and the black Twin Skinny belt is from Aoharu. The only jewelry I’m wearing are the Bailey’s pearl studs from Exodi.

I’ve picked the simple, classy chignon Christina, from SLink, and I’m wearing Mauve, the next to be released skin from Dutch Touch, based on her awesome Dune skin.

I picked Boom’s summer sarong in tan as the base for today’s look. I decided to leave the sash on the hip in my inventory as it makes the sarong more dressy, and that’s not the look that I wanted to achieve today. I’m wearing it with Tuli’s worn capri’s and Intimizzio’s (Armidi)  Chiara di Luna in black on the shirt and underpants layer. HUZ’ Ugra tattoo felt just right to wear with this. For the accesories I went with good ole Shiny Things stuff. The Zeyla necklace and the Nico bracelet, because they have this chunky, somewhat tribal look that I wanted.

I’m still wearing Lily, the new skin at Exodi from my review earlier today, and the hair is Truth’s Ingrid in Chocolate.

Lily Was Here

Well, she is, not was… but the name of this skin triggered some musical memories: Dave Stewart & Candy Dulfer

It’s fun to follow a creator in their new ventures, especially when they are talented like Ms Ryker Beck from Exodi.  Ever since she has created her first skin a couple of months ago, she’s been a force to reckon with, and with the realisation of Lily, her latest, I think it’s fair to say that she has deserved a place between the more seasoned skinners of SL.

Whereas a lot of people, who also do well in retail, and are blogged frequently, for me remain mediocre and produce skin with a lot of flaws and issues (but the face is cute, so who cares that the body is full of seams and the textures don’t match and the make up is a tad smudged and blotchy, right?) Ryker has been working her ass off to make every skin better, ironing out the things that she felt could be done better in her previous skins, and give every new skin which she creates a character of its own. Pooping rainbows much? Well, I think it’s some well earned praise for someone who’s working hard, and has made huge steps in the development of her product.

Lily is a beautiful skin, combining realism with the smoothness of a hand drawn skin. There probably will be some photosourcing in Lily, but it’s very well blended and never hard or ugly. Lily comes in 4 skintones, like shown on the above picture, and 8 different make ups… or should I say 16, as every make up has a faded version included in the pack as well?  Also, Ryker is known to make pretty dark eyebrows, but for the more fair haeded she includes a light brow version as well. Anyway, they are beautiful,  and they’re also a good deal. Retailing at 800L$ for a single skin (4 really, since you get the regular and the faded make up, in the dark and light eyebrow version) it’s really value for money and the fatpack for 5000 L$ for all 8 make ups in a skintone equals L$ 625 for a single skin.

Bootie shot after the cut, because Lily has a cute bum, and because this skin is about more than just the face! (more…)

I’m wearing the new Oriental Maxi skirt from Rainbow Chaser today,with the teal beach bum top from Skin Flicks. The bracelet and earrings from Exodi’s Autumn set and Surf Couture’s freedom flops finish this boho outfit.

I’ve picked Curio’s June2 Raccoon skin with HUZ’s henna2 tattoo and Truth’s Angelina hair in espresso.

Going professional today, even though the cute Christy skirt from Skin Flicks is too short to fit the proper definition of office/business attire (which would be knee length, or just above knee). But since I’ve got the legs to pull it off -in SL at least- I picked it anyway to go with the Dietrich shirt from Lelutka and the beige houndstooth Metro jacket from Bijou. I’m wearing the black nylon tights from Sheer and the Pearl and Chain belt from Ume. My glasses are from FNKY and the earrings are Exodi’s Bailey’s pearls.

I’ve picked Cupcakes’ Seduction in Wheat (Girly make up) and Lamb’s Unbirthday chignon in Butterfinger to finish the corporate look.
