Odette

Philotic Energy's Odette hair is very Marie Antoinette and has tiny strands of pearls woven into the hairstyle! This is the prefect hair for those New Year's Eve parties coming up!

* This hair is currently available at the Winter Magic @ Black Swan (Dec 15th - Jan 9th) only.

Princess Hair

It's my first hair... Princess Hair! This is a messy side ponytail with some curls and ribbons. The hair is mod so you can tint the ribbons to match any outfit.

Meet Charlotte

Kira Ahn will be releasing the new Charlotte skins tomorrow and it is yummy!! If you're looking for a change, these are fantastic and have a nice little glow to them, even on the Pale skin tone that I'm wearing below. The Charlotte skins pack will include a shape and eyes (not worn here) and 10 different makeups.

I Loooove the bright frosty eyeshadow on these skins!!

[ BeBae - Belina *Cinna: Cat-2a ]

Each Belina makeup will include with drawn on lashes, without lashes and two different lipsticks to choose from.

Imagen Skin

This is the newly released Irene skin from Imagen, and it comes with a light dusting of lovely freckles and tons of makeups ranging from sweet and natural to bright and eye-catching. I am wearing the Irene (Este tone) in Natural Rose makeup and it goes perfectly with red hair.

Tp to Imagen to try on Irene.

Gala Phoenix "Winter" Skins

Gala Phoenix has just released the 'Winter' makeup pack and they are a beautiful, dramatic, and so glam! I am a big fan of the Gala skins because they're photogenic and there are a lot of makeups to choose from and they're modifiable, which is a rarity for skins. Gala made these skins mod so you can tint the eyebrows, and nail colors!!

If you've been good all year, which I know you have, ask Santa to bring you these for Christmas!!

Shown below are the Gala skins in Classic tone:

[ GP: Classic - Christmas Lights | Gold Foil | Silent Night | Sugarplum ]

The Freckles version:

There are 10 skin tones to chose from, and the differences subtle from one tone to the next, but its good to have choices! I wear the Classic skin tone a lot, but when I want a Sunny glow, I try Lumine skin tone.

[ GP: Classic | GP: Lumine ]

Here I am picture whoring around the gorgeous Broadmead sim :P

What I'm Wearing:

MMS Hair - VENERA (Natural Blonde)
JADOR - Etername Diamond Set
Kira Ahn - Guci2 Dress /rose/ (I looove this dress, the texture is really good)

All Dressed Up

I'm wearing the Cachet MIMI coat I bought last week and FINALLY found something to pair it with! Sculpted coats are a bit difficult to wear with prim skirts (probably looks great with jeans or system skirts) but I really wanted to wear the MALT "After 5ive" Sophia dress. I like this dress a lot, especially the textures and the poofy prim skirt shape! It's so round and cute.

What I'm Wearing:

AOHARU - NIkki hair
MMS - London skin
Cachet - MIMI Coat
MALT - Sophia dress
Paper Couture - Regal Pearl set
*Sheer* - tights
Juicy - Classic Pumps (Black Cherry)

We fail @ modeling

MALT Fashions has such cute casual clothing but the "After 5ive" line of dresses are my favorite. I was a MALT virgin up until today, since I have never even heard of the brand before. When I got there, of course I had to tp my friend Torie and for some reason we thought it was a good idea to buy matching dresses and take pictures :P

...and wear matching hair and skin!

We kinda failed at modeling the dress so off to the photo machine at Juicy for some crazy pictures!

How does this thing work? Being the nice girl that I am, I'm showing Torie how to use page up/page down LOL

Sexy MALT dresses! We're both wearing the Marilyn dress, ETD 'Elizabeth' hair, Digit Darkes' Messina heels on me and Maitreya's on Torie.

See? Having a blast..... (ignore Torie's petrified face, she's just faking it!)

... Really!

This hair is a Christmas freebie from W&Y, part of a hunt. It's color and texture changeable and so cute! You're looking for a little stocking (hint: Christmas tree) at the shop, buy it for $0L.

What I'm Wearing:

Dutch Touch - Bra Dress
Gala - Lumine - Blossom Skin
Dark Mouse - Nana's Diamonds Necklace (Copper)

Sweetest Goodbye & BOOM

A couple of holiday things you don't want to miss! Sweetest Goodbye has the holiday edition of the Miss Tree hair on sale for $50L. Shown here in its minty green color in a cute whimsical style with holiday trinkets wrapping around the hair. ICoN recently sent out a cute Season's Greetings 2008 necklace (in gold) for group members. Worn here is the ICoN gold choker, but the package includes the choker, a double version, and a long version of the necklace. Join the ICoN Update Group to get yours for free.

The skin I'm wearing is a little sneak peek of the upcoming BeBae new release. It's beautiful, as always.

This *BOOM* Warm Shoulders wrap is the perfect accessory for the cold..Brrrr.. it's so cozy! Shown above is the entire Gluttony Pack, which includes white, red and black colors.

The Sweetest Goodbye Miss Tree hair is just adorable here and I feel totally lit up and festive now :P

Happy Shopping Second Life!

Katat0nik's Snow Bunny

Katat0nik has just released the Snow Bunny Set in 8 yummilicious colors to choose from! If you need something besides red and green to celebrate the winter, this set is adorable and soooo cute. The Snow Bunny Set includes dress, Snow Bunny Skin & Shape, and Scripted Bunny Ears!

As always, Katat0nik's attention to detail is amazing and all the pieces are layerable so it can be worn together or separately.

[ The Snow Bunny Set (skin & shape not shown here) ]

I've decided to pair this dress with the Bax Coen Black Patent Ankle Boots!! Normally I shy away from extremely spiky heels but these are great.

Yuuuum...!! These boots are definitely made for walking....

...everywhere!

I'm wearing the Zero Style 'Homin' hairstyle. Sorry I forgot to credit these in the previous blog entry and a bunch of people asked! :P The skin is from La Sylphide.

Natura X'mas Skin

You guys know I love skins, right?! Especially nice free skins without any added facial tattoos or wild makeups that would make it unsuitable for daily wear. I stumbled upon info about the free skin at Natura and it is GORGEOUS.

Tp to Natura Designs, and find a green sock on the Christmas tree (buy it for 0L).

Hair worn here is also a freebie from R's Hair Style - "Kay" in Silk White color.

Credit to this entry goes to one of my favorite freebie blogs, My Second Life on the D-List. SLonDList is so informative and they always include slurls and tells you exactly where to find things !!! <3

Not a skin review, but an observation

Awhile ago, I made a poll on iheartsl asking people which they would prefer more: A skin with a pretty face but ugly body, or a pretty body but an ugly face... of course an overwhelming majority said they would prefer a pretty face.

Normally I pass over skins that don't have both a pretty face and a decent body, but sometimes I'll buy a skin I'm not 100% happy with just because the good outweighs the bad. D-skin makes gorgeous faces, probably could be my top 3 choices for skins except for a few things that I totally think the creator could improve upon. I know it's personal preference, and after asking around, most people don't even notice the ears but I do and it bugs me.

Shown here is the D-Skin #58, which has a gorgeous face but the ears are freakishly realistic. I know I could wear hair that covers it up but that's not a good solution.

Left to right: D-Skin #4 (blurry) | D-Skin #58 (ugly) | D-Skin #60 (better!)

I've noticed that since moving to a new sim, D-Skin has released more skins and the D-Skin #60 has a nice ears!!!! But I really wanted the D-Skin #58 since the tone is a bit tanner and I like that. So I'm crossing my fingers for now, that DynamiteTanaka Payne will be updating the ears on the skin I bought.

And speaking of upgrades.. how about some new feet? These belong to the undead, I want prettier toes, please.

Tp to D-Skin @ the new No Plan sim.
