Yeah, no… we’re not going back to the Alphabet blogs, we’re still on Colours and this week, by request of Autumn, it’s Brown!

There are SO many different hues of Brown that my headly exploded, I had done myself up all gorgeous and shit then decided I was more Beige than Brown and although it is, technically, Brown.. I was displeased.

I started with Celestial Studio Eyes… I have many, MANY eyes, but I love how big and Glossy that the Mirrored Collection at Celestial Studios is.   I, quite obviously, chose the Deep Brown and I love how smouldery they make me look, really sexy imo!

The Hair is Vanessa II from ETD, in the oh so loved (by me and many) Elikas Brown.   I heart this texture so much it’s not even funny, and the style is one that i’m not OVERLY fond of, I really don’t do hair without bangs very well, maybe because i’ve always had bangs myself in RL? I dunno! I like it, I just don’t *love* it like I do with most hairs.   It’s a really nice flicky out style tho, casual and cute!

The Skin is from Celestial Studios and is part of the initial Vogue release.  It’s Brown Smokey in the Cashmere tone, and of course I opted for the Freckled version.   I love the make up on this one, it’s kinda intense, but not overly so.   The eyes are quite soft, but the lips are fairly dramatic, but I think it’s a gorgeous Brown make up and you should all have it!

For the outfit, I decided that i’d venture into Skirtville, I dunno why, I just fancied a change from pants.   The top is something I recently picked up at the FABULOUS sale at M&R Cupcakes, a merger between Mimi Coral and Rosemary Galbraith and what a sexy merger it is!  I must admit I struggled with the prim arms on the top, because they just would NOT match the top colour, but thats the joy and pain that is Windlight.  You don’t HAVE to wear the arms, I just figured you should… as they come with it >.>

The Skirt is part of the LuLu Collection at Celestial Studios, you remember, that HUGE assed Collection Starley made with SO many different bits your L$ balance ran from you upon release? Yeah.. THAT one.  I chose the Brown and it matched the top quite nicely without looking too out of place, me thinks!   It’s short but not too short, it’s poofy but not too poofy, it’s pretty much awesome!

Finally, to top it off I chose the Lucky Clover ETD Hunt Gift of ETD Wedges, in Brown.   They didn’t match teh top and skirt so much but hey, i’d look a bit of a plonker if I was one colour from head to foot, right? RIGHT?

So that’s it for Brown, I will do a Beige one, and probably more different darker/lighter Browns.. it’s hard to know what kinda Brown to do when there are so freaking many!!!

That’s me, over and out! Toodles <3
