Chocolate with sushi! Yum!

Anyone who’s spending some time on flickr‘s numerous SL-related groups, may have seen this already. It sounds already manic in my head, but I have to say, it was a huuuuuge stack of fun to shoot…myself…erm. At the end it was hard, to delete too much, because I liked most of them, especially those sitting poses, which are tricky with skirts and most hairs (and I won’t try to get one of the 180 prims of my wig, to make it look “normal”). So if you enjoy the outfit as much as I did (do), you can check out my 345 pix of it on flickr. *harhar*

The shirt from Twosome (Hands up, whose parents/grandparents had that kind of pattern on the wall! *remembers something like that in green, with orange sofas and a very, very, very fluffy and hairy (partly because of the cat-hair in it) rug*) was my starting point and I had to find stuff to go with it. Did a lot of shop/sim-hopping and found some really cute things, like the pants from KUROTSUBAKI, which are FREEEEEE!

I’ve seen quite a few of blogs (Edit: I found the bookmark for the blog-post I’ve seen/read first about them!) mentioning the shoes from Stiletto Moody and this is my first pair. They’re expensive (very!), but they’re the best I’ve seen for classy killer-heels. They come with a ton of options: walkAO, bling, heel-click, adjustable frequency and volume. Personally I prefer the bare settings. You can easily change all that by clicking on your left shoe.

I could go on and on about this, but I don’t want to bore you half to death…enjoy! 😉

Granny’s wearing a lifejacket!

Oh, oh…I am sooo lazy lately. Well, if you consider shopping in our Soluble Liquids (TM of whom? Can’t find the comment anymore…) as a productive activity…then I was very, very busy! 😉

When the Tree of SL-update notice informed me about sculpted blouses, I just thought: Häh?. Later, on just another busy shopping-tour I understood. Wow! The new thing is a sculpted torso-prim! I see! Quinlan Quimby even offers a fitting service in the notecard with your purchase. I tried the blouse on my fuller figured shape and either it looked like a lifejacket or it was invisible thanks to breasts and belly. *hrhr* A glitch-layer (undershirt/shirt) is included and should be worn, so no flesh is flashing. Although the notecard says, you shouldn’t wear it alone, I’ve seen people doing just that and it still looks cute *shrugs*. Oh, and ToSL has matching shoes for the flowery blouses!

Having already Aden‘s Hair and Tuli‘s skin in my pocket (it’s biig!), I decided to go with a rather simple, no-colour-explosion look. A simple black&white look with flats and a discreet splash of orange here and there. The 60s feeling reminded me of the Tres Blah high wasted denims, which are just perfect with the blouse. Don’t you agree, the granny-potential is still in range of the tolerable!

SHEEEELBY!!!!!

I heard shelby Wrangler the first time, when I was shopping around Caribe. She was shouting with someone else for hours (well, maybe it were just a few minutes until I joined the shouting 😉 ). We had a little chitchat and since then we occasionally hear each other. She usually shouts around like crazy, even (or especially?) in busy fashion events/sales. But I have to admit the last time…I started the shout, which was February the 7th (wow, you were wondering about the date, weren’t you?). That’s when she told me about her new shop Twosome which she runs with her friend Visa Volare. The latter is responsible for the gorgeous shirts they have on offer. The green top was the first to jump into my eye (Yeah, it still hurts!). Combined with warming armwarmers from UnTone Quilt (it’s still cold and you wouldn’t want to cover up the top, right?), Tres Blah denims and comfy boots from Maitreya this makes a cute casual outfit.

top: Starfruit Retro Top from Twosome

Too scared or too lazy?

Take a guess….

It’s time to show you some lovely outfit yet again. Not much work done you might think, but take a look at those colours (eyes, make-up, dress-thingy).

We all love Veschi, no doubt about it (I hope!!). I bought this in a serious attack (yeah, should see GP soon about that) after lovely Alla Ruff’s Computer broke down and she put most of her stuff on sale. It wasn’t brand new at that point, but as my two (three?) readers know…I don’t care. ETD-sale had some impact as well…*coughs* I think I bought at least four if not five willow-packs. ShinyThings did an amazing thing with those two coloured shoes, also available as flats…it makes it way easier to match with other colours. Yay!

Happy Second Lifing! (Please don’t sue me!)

dress: Muffin Top Dress Olive from Veschi

socks: melanie’s leggings! from corduroy

shoes: MaryGeo pump – spring green from Shiny Things

bangles: winter Gold Blanges from Argyle Boutique

hair: Eglantine – Blonde from ETD

eyes: Green Eyes from Minnu Model Skins

skin: S3 pale tone/brown brows ~ halo red from Tuli

pose: Balancar from Twosome

Accidentally in Black

Ooops! Usually I’m not into all-black outfits (…but don’t mind rugby players *harhar*…), but if you buy with less thinking than usual, you might put your personal preferences aside.

Out of boredom I was checking some LMs in my inventory and also stopped at ::69:: (which opened a new main-store today!). Opposite of the store I browsed through :sey and found some nice pieces. I decided to buy a rock-chick-ish (huh?) jacket. Trying it on at home it slowly dawned on me, that :sey parka-black wave-for men is indeed for men! How could I’ve known??? Hood’s too big, upper arm thingies are too big, belt’s too big. I had to reduce it to the parts that are modifiable. My former plan of skinny jeans went down the drains and the lovely BP* skirt didn’t look too bad with the jacket. To give the whole thing at least some hint of colour I decided on using the rather pale skin with bright make-up from Minnu. The pumps from Shiny Things are just perfect, because they are not just black, but grey as well (wow, what a keen perception!), which goes very well with the jacket.

Perfect AO: Drama Queen from ANA_Mations (especially if it’s free *hrhr*)

By the way…the jacket is available for the ladies as a hooded coat in several textures/colours.

jacket: parka-black wave-for men from :sey

skirt: Black wraparound skirt from BP*

tights: Cozily Tintable Stockings Bottom from Veschi

shoes: MaryGeo pump – gray from Shiny Things

hair: Suri (Black) from Aden

eyes: black eyes from Tuli

skin: Fair SkinGloss-DittaCherry from Minnu Model Skins

Panic Attack!

The one or two people out there who follow my blog with excitement *harhar* know, I’m not doing really any review-posts, just the occasional Look what I found!–blogHUD-post. I’m more into creating perfect (perfect to me, some might hate it…hope not) outfits and showing them off. Of course it’s nice, if anyone’s getting some inspiration from it. So this outfit doesn’t contain anything new…well, the hair (thanks to this blog I finally noticed the arrival) was new when I put the outfit together. The skin is a result from my panic buy at Tuli (if you really wanna know: click!) and the top and pants are from the OMG-Last-Call-will-be-gone-have-to-buy-…-ANYTHING-tour, both being from different sets/outfits. I’d like to point out, that the hair looks very funny with this pose…

top: Yelena Semi-sheer Tunic (nightsky) from Last Call (worn with the golden bikini-top from the set)

pants: Dana Corduroy Pants (brown belt) (amethyst) from Last Call

shoes: Vidalia Pump [FuiFui Magi] from Armidi

earrings: Acer Earring from Junk

hair: WindBlown (Black) from Aden

eyes: black eyes from Tuli

skin: S3 pale tone/black brows ~ halo purple from Tuli

pose: Angelina Jolie did this move to bulk up for Tomb Raider. from PUDGE
