Sometimes a girl just needs colour… like today… So I picked Bijou’s Cake green turtleneck top, and Bijou’s Secret pink cropped jacket. My torn jeans skirt is from the Yelena outfit from Last Call and is no longer available. Slink’s green glamour plateaus are a great match with the turtleneck, and with Alicia Chenaux how to tint your prim feet tutorial on What The Fug, you really have NO excuse anymore to wear bad tinted prim feet… NO excuse, you hear? <3. Speaking of <3, the long drop heart necklace is from Cailyn MIller.

I’m wearing Armidi’s Ginza hair, and PXL Creations Linda Tan, Exotic make up.

When back in December Lo Jacobs released her Lucy dresses, I got my hands on a fatpack of this frilly, girly dress and I am wearing it really often, although hardly ever as is. This time I’m wearing it with the mossy green cardigan from Rapshodie and the military green suspender knee socks from Pig which I picked up at the square in Tableau. I picked the brown Saturday flats from Shiny Things to go with it. Recently I was going through my Lassitude and Ennui folder and the beauty of the Gwanwyn set struck me all over again, so that’s today’s accesoire pick.

I’m wearing the natural Onyx skin from Dutch Touch in spring skin tone, and Maitreya’s Faye in Hazel.

I realise I have Gritty Kitty’s Hoke-Troika hair on again. I just think it’s really cute and sassy and I didn’t bother changing skins after my review of Mai skins’ Mia. Now that I take a second look at this image, It’s a pretty thrown together look alltogether, but I still think it works pretty well. There certainly is no philosophy behind this look :-D. I was scrolling through my inventory and digged up these checkered sailor pants from Boing Fromage, next I picked Michami’s black Stella jacket, which never lets me down, speaking of basics….. the green shirt is the Cole boat neck top from W&B (not available yet) and the scarf is Ce Cubic Effect. I have been trying out several shoes, flats, pumps, ankleboots even, before I decided it was time to pay UBU a visit and get the new drunks and added some green to them to make them match the rest.

Mia @ Mai Bodyshop

mai-bodyshop-mia-skin-face

OK, so I felt like writing about skins again, and I have seen Mia, from Mai Bodyshop a couple of times on Thalia, and I have used them a few times myself, and the face really struck me. It’s not the average pretty girl face, this skin appears to be a bit more mature, it has character. Much to my surprise,when I googled the skin and its creator it has not been blogged much. There is a lovely set of photo’s from Gogo on her blog, but that is about it. Mia comes in 4 skintones, sunrise, midday, sunset and midnight and has some pretty strong make ups. I think the mouth is quite spectacular. Mia comes  a bald and a hair base version, with 2 sets of lashes, and a face lamp, which I think is nice, but not really necessary if you use good windlight settings like Caliah’s. Wearing a face lamp, you’ll all to easy blind other people’s SL.

It’s a lovely Sunday and I’m in a happy mood. So I picked Ibizarre’s aqua Chantilly top and paired it with a total oldie from my inventory, Amby denim, from Naughty Designs. Yep.. I still have that stuff around… Siddean Munro from SLink! totally nailed the prim feet again in these flat, white Summer sandals. I just can’t stress enough how easy they are to tint, and only cost a fraction of what some other brands will charge for prim feet shoes. Lucas Lameth’s Kahto set is a simple but elegant set of jewelry with an ethnic touch, which I really like with this look.

I’m wearing PXL Creation’s Grace in the fair skintone which will be released shortly and Gritty Kitty’s Hoke-Troika hair in ash.

Boots

 

Boots, originally uploaded by Grazia Horwitz.

While at Exile earlier to pick up Kavar’s new, pretty hair Courtney, worn in hazlenut, I spotted these incredibly well made Kboots from Ju Weissnicht. They are exquisitely textured, and the sculpties look great. They are out on the dock, and only available in black and brown. I’m wearing the boots with the camo pants from Abyss’Opium avatar, Muism’s black tank top and Aoharu’s black jeans jacket. Sole accesoire for this look is the Coin necklace from Maitreya.

I’m wearing LeLutka’s Roma sinkissed, make up 7a

Full prim lashes, originally uploaded by Grazia Horwitz.

I don’t know if this is a first, but Thora Charron from LeLutka has made 3 sets of full prim lashes that look amazingly real. They are not really suitable for day to day wearing, as they are really quite primmy and adjustment of the lashes does require patience and some prim shifting skills, but oh boy… do they look good in close ups…..

Mavis McGettigan, creator of Skin Flicks, has recently been changing all perms on her clothing from no copy/no mod/trans to copy/mod/no trans and that makes me so happy. Whereas I think SkinFlicks clothes are done well enough to make it worth the while to tweak your shape a little to make the prim work fit, basically I just believe prim clothes parts should be modifiable to fit you, instead of you making yourself fit the prims. So kudos for Mavis!

That being said, I’m wearing SkinFlicks beige Jane pants and belt with Casa del Shai’s khaki safari jacket and Maitreya’s olive Verve pumps. I’ve accesorised this outfit with Lucas Lameth’s Kamoana shell bracelet and layered necklace and ETD’s black aviator glasses.

Blowpop’s Carmen skin in raw sienna (look 2) didn’t want to come off today, and it suits me fine, and I’m wearing Truth’s Polly in sand… probably the only sand this safari chick will be seeing when sipping her chardonnay, and listen to the stories of the wild animals outside of the resort.

The new tunic tops at Truth are so well made. I’m wearing the Nautical one today, with the attachment, but you can also wear the mesh only for a tucked in look. I really like the neckline of this top, square, not too revealing, clean, sporty. Last week I had a total shopping spree at Artilleri, and most of it is still in my “new purchases” folder, so they stil grab my attention frequently, like this red simplicity pencil skirt. Not shown, but really matching quite well with the sportive look, are the red striped sneakers, from Redgrave. My Aemilia necklace is from Whippet & Buck (to be released).

With all the new skins that have come out over the last few weeks, I’d almost forget about the first line of Blowpop that looks cute on my avie, Infinity. I’m wearing Carmen in raw sienna look 2 and I’m wearing Pumpkin hair in fudge, which is another new release at Truth.

Ok.. so I’m vain. When I found this dress at BareRose today, it hit me, right between the eyes… Must Have.. Now. I wanted it.. I needed it.. badl! Libido is black, leather, naughty. It comes in a modest version.. but I opted for the open shirt, and instead I have chosen this lovely red Applique bra from LoveLace to wear with it and to cover my breasts. With the red bra, Fleur’s scarlet leather patent belt seemed a goof choice to add some more colour, and the cherry gloves, also from Fleur are a natural finish of this look. I’m wearing SLink’s black Glamour plateaus and the sunglasses are actually part of Libido.

I’m wearing Lamb’s BangBang! hair and Mai skin, Mia Sunrise vol.4.

I’m not sure, but something tells me SL is not having its best day in history today. My skybox is a stylish grey… and so are my lashes and other prim attachments, and my hair is grey too… and consists out of unrezzed sculpties. So fashionable, really!,

Oh well.. this photo is the only one that I got right this morning, so I proudly present you , the look of April 3… I’m wearing the Toasted Plaid monochrome from Thimbles, available at the Toast Bard Fundraiser at Tableau, and Artilleri’s Nina High Waist pants. The red bangles are from +PLus and I love the flower in the new release from Truth, Sehra, which I’m wearing in Strawberry. My skin today is Bliss, from Adam ‘n Eve in skintone 2, with the Red Candy make up.

I kinda like how this photo worked out, and I might do the images more often like this. What do you think?

chocolate

My long time friend Lucas just IMed me with the question “Chocolate or cookies?”  Whilst normally such a question would cause me an existentialist crisis, today is very much a chocolate day, so that was answered easily enough. Next thing I knew he dropped a box of chocolates from Feather  on me, which I find totaly adorable. Thanks Luc!! <3.  This prim food does not attach to your mouth… but you wear the box of chocolates and on first touch the lit lifts and you can pick your choice of bon bons… when you touch the chocolate, it will appear in your hand and you’ll bring it to your mouth, then it will disappear again… and you can pick another one for your chocolate fix. “but Grazia….. there are only four… how will that ease your craving??, you’ll ask….. Aaaaah… my dear, that is the good part about this fine chocolate food that does not attack your hips nor will cause nasty break outs… once you empty the box, It will just replenish itself  when you put the lit back on. And then you can start all over again… and again… and again… til your pixels are sated and the virtual endorphines will make you feel full of pixel bliss.

The et cetera in this post is dedicated to a little fundraiser that the people at Tableau have put together to help Toast get her long longed for sex change. Ok… rumours are her computer died… but that’s obviously way too normal a reason, considering the nature of the Tableau Troupe. So a sex change it is.. must been the longing to do in RL what in SL you can do in a minute… which I totally have every morning when stuck in traffic and really just want to TP to work… Oh right, I’m rambling… sorry… Anyway… At the central square you’ll find, among others, the pretty Bang Bang hair from Lamb! and the darling Blooming Roses blouses from Très Blah that I’m wearing here. Other contributors are Thimbles, Pudge and Pig. So don’t be cheap and go get some goodies and support one of SL’s most appreciated artists.

This vest caught my eye in a small shop, Rhapsodie, at Koenji ( I never exactly know where I am in that sim, I wander and discover new shops there all the time, or so it seems) and I knew it would be a cute match with some of the guy’s stuff that Popfuzz has out now. I’m wearing the vest with Popfuzz’ low rise, belted, brown jeans and the chestnut men’s tank top. The short stacks from Pretties by JB are a good match for this boho outfit. I have accessorised with the hues of rose Moxie bangles and Lucas Lameth’s Tropical necklace #1.

I’m, wearing Polly, by Truth, in mahogany, and PXL Creation’s Grace Fair which, by popular demand, will be in the shop later this week and the henna tattoo is from Zaara’s Indian bride outfit.

Seduction face, originally uploaded by Grazia Horwitz.

You may have seen this skin on me in the last couple of blogposts already, but I’m seriously infatuated with the pretty face of Mimi and Rosemary’s latest addiditon to their skin range. Seduction came, saw and conquered me right on the spot when I first put the wheat skin tone of the generous group gift on. Right now there are 10 make ups available for each of the 8 skintone, most of them are pretty soft and girly. Mimi and Rose have promised more make-ups though, and I am curious to see them.

I’m showing you the gift skin here, as I only managed just now to go to Le Zoo and pick up 2 more skins, the Natural and the Retro, which are yummy as well.

When Canimal sent me her Skellyflies, I was just working on an outift and I really adore this piece, so I decided to leave it on. I picked Kari’s/TW new school jeans and Calypso Giano’s “Love is a Gamble” top and since some lingerie is so cute that you don’t mind showing it a bit, I picked Popfuzz’ Olive Lace lingerie to add a little colour. And that lingerie set matches perfectly with Maitreya’s lime Slinky Stilettos. The green Moxie bangles are new at Pretties by JB, from Jori Watler.

Perfect with the Skellyflies is ETD’s new Chel hair, which I’m wearing in Espresso and The skin that I’m in today is Seduction, the latest brainchild from Mimi Coral and Rosemary Galbraith @ Cupcakes!.
