Brrrr, it so is! I don’t normally feel the cold in RL but JEEBUS, gimme a hot water bottle, STAT! Anyway, I decided today would be winter-ish based, so here we go!  Bear with me if i’m boring and quiet lately, the LOTRO expansion pack came out and I am having TEH FUNZ there

Ok to start I started with the lovely new hair from Truth, I fell in love with this as SOON as I saw it, it looks like the kinda style you get if you have naturally curly hair, but can’t control it, so stick it in bunches to look cute and CUTE DO YOU LOOK? YES!   It’s a really awesome style with a texture change beanie style hat to boot!   It’d be interesting to see this style without the hat, also!

The skin is new from Redgrave and is the Vivian skin, I did find when I bought these ( I didn’t demo, doh!) that the lips were HUGE on me, now I know I have bigger style lips anyway, but they were mahoooosive, so I did have to tweak my shape slightly.   I am also a bit unsure about the painted on lashes, I think they make my eyes look 100x bigger than normal, but I like the skins none the less so it was pretty much win win and with fatpacks at only just under $L3k for ALL the makeups, it really IS win win!

The eyes are from Celestial Studios and are part of the Mirror series, a light brown with a gorgeous twinkle, paired off with the Bedroom lashes from Cake!

For the outfit the base of my outfit were the most ossmtastic boots from Kookie!! These are only $L99 and OMG I fookin’ LOVE THEM!!!    They are like uggs and I just haven’t the words to express my love for them, NO WORDS!   I matched them up with the Overdyed Jeans from Celestial Studios and opted for the Cherry colour, as there are some reddy bits in the boots and then paired those up with the Hoodie/Tee combo from the ETD Hoodie Set outfit I have, in brown!

I think it looks like a pretty cute and casual winter outfit, and I love it, if you don’t then BOO TO YOU!

Ok, now I must go do RL then drag someone onto LOTRO with me! TOODLES! <3 (I will post SLURLS later, but for now I apologise for I am teh lazies, if you want one, lemme know and i’ll come back and do it )

Yup, TULI!

Tuli has released new goodness and I LUUURVE it, I haven’t really been in SL that much recently as i’ve not felt like it but I *had* to log in and get these and I thought it was time to post something so here I am! *jazz hands*

It’s not going to be a post full of waffle cos I don’t feel like waffling (I know, wtf is up with *that*?) but you can see from the pics the awesomesauce that is… TULI!

On the left you can see the new Skullie dress in Lime, I loooove the coluring on lime, but I am going to go back and get a couple more colours, yup it’s available in a handful!   I paired it with the free leggings that I found in Sumi’s Corner at Tuli’s store and I tried pairing it with the lace socks (not shown) that are available, but I prefered it with just the leggings, it’s a gorgeous and fun dress that is vibrant and cute!   I paired the dress with the new Connect Hair from Magika, i’m really digging Magika at the moment, and I love their Blondes, so expect to see more Magika hair from me now and then

The 2 pics on the right are of the new Sue dress from Tuli, shown here in black, it’s also available in more colours.   I opted for black because it’s black/red and I love that colour combo.   As you can see you get the gorgeous poofy dress complete with bow at the back and you also get two sets of gloves, one red and one black, a gorgeous dress for a gorgeous occasion, I don’t often do “big” dresses, but I immediately fell for this one!  It’s paired with the new Lucy hair from Magika, another style i’m really digging, the bow on top was just the perfect pairing for my Sue dress, imo!

The skin is the new Alice line from Free Speerit and how much am I in love with these skins? A bit bloody too much I think!! I love the shading, I adore the faces, I think it really suits me and I, for one, will be wearing it a LOT. I need to go back and get more, come to think of it. <.<

That’s about it, not a lot else to say really but I think you all need to own these things!

So i’ve been kinda cranky of late and not been around that much but I felt the need to snap some piccies and do some PS so I thought what better way to do it than make them for a short blog? So that’s what I did! Credits for all the pics along with SLURLS can be found at the bottom cos i’m just FABULOUS like that (that was a joke, btw).

Firstly we have new hair by Gritty Kitty. Yes, i’m a Noam fangirl and you will just have to deal with it. I will be pooping rainbows and farting kittens about it or WHATEVER the uncool kids are saying now. This is the newest addition called Slant, based on a picture given to Noam by AnaLu (ref pic can be found on Noam’s Blog). It’s a bobbed sort of style and the twist is (or slant, hrr hrr) that the base of the fringe is delightfully wispy with blunt edges and is COLOUR CHANGE, while you also get a flick over top fringe effect. I really dig it, I love the colour change hair that Noam does, and it’s one of the best scripts in hair i’ve seen with just a click>drop down menu effect! If you don’t own Slant cos you think it’s “not you” don’t be a tool, get there and BUY IT FFS!

Also seen in the picture is a skin that can be found in the Nomine Hunt going on at the moment, you have to find apples and it’s NOT a free hunt, this skin cost me $L200. My only gripe is that nomine is fecking HUGE and my attention span needs to be longer! so not really a gripe, just an FYI! I really like it tho, I really like the face and I can see myself going back to by MORE MORE MORE of the Sylvan skins (are they out yet? I live under a rock, are they new? WHATS THE DEALIO? EDIT: No they are not, as I suspected they are UNRELEASED skins, HOP TO IT!)

Next is TULI! I heart Tuli’s store, oh yes I do. Tuli always makes things with such vibrancc and colour, and this dress is NO exception! It’s the Coco dress shown here in Cerulean but available in 3 diff colours and it’s a feast for the eyes! It’s quite busy, so if you don’t really like patterns, you might not like it and in all honesty it doesn’t look like something i’d normally wear, but it drew my attention so i bought it! It comes with prim skirt and belt and 2 different prim collars, but you don’t have to wear either if you don’t like them (I didn’t really dig them cos my poses sucked and ate them mostly). I paired them with the new pumps she released at the same time in the matching colour and I think I looked pretty darn cute! The skin i’m wearing is also a Tuli, one of the Meredith skins, beautiful body shading and face, I really love the realistic look to it and SO hope Tuli does more of these!!

The hair I am wearing is from Magika, a shop that makes me go cross eyed with the huge assed high walls of hair but it’s all full of awesome so that more than makes up for it once I uncross my eyes This is one of the newest, Kuma! I love how they have redone their hair into cheaper packs for MORE colours. Magika FTW!

Finally one of the newest releases from Church of Luxe – Ingrid! Shown here in blue it’s a cutesy lil number with gorgeous floral detailing. You get the babydoll type dress, the quilted satiny style cargidan with prim cuffs and the black tights/leggings. It’s a perfect autumn number and I’m *SO* happy to see Lo designing again, she rocks my lil cotton socks!!! I did a huge assed review of COL a few posts back and she just keeps on adding to the range, GO LO GO!

The hair in this pic is Vasha from ETD, one of the newer releases and dare I say, one of the most awesome? (I dare say it, but then I say it with every new release, lawl!). The skin is from Blowpop and is part of the Tuesday line. I received the new beta skins and am currently in the process of writing up my thoughts on that for Annyka! I will get there eventually, I swear! But I think you’ll all LOVE it

Ok so that’s it for today, i’m not feeling particularly “SLey” of late, so you’ll forgive me if my blogging is slow and boring, wontcha? I’ll bake you cupcakes in return

Mucho love <3

Yup, it’s THAT time, I have neglected my inventory since well… since giving birth to mini Willis #2 really, my clothing folder spanned OVER 5 inventory windows and then some, and that, in my book… is just bloody awful!

So today isn’t really a look of the day, if you will, it’s a mish mash of me just plopping on various folders while I waffle on about inventory.  So yeah, the below look is something I randomly threw together by just putting on random things, RANDOM FTW!  I  kinda think it looks cute, in a mish mashed way, credits are the at the bottom for anyone wondering what I randomly threw on

I have neglected you so bad, Inventory.. I AM SO SORRY!  I got caught up in RL, then LOTRO, then I came and shopped for England and just didn’t have it in me to stay on and sort you all out, I AM SO SORRY!

I am so anal usually about my inventory, so it’s SHOCKING… SHOCCCCCKKKINGGG! That I let it get so bad, but it’s all good, I spent a good hour or two last night throwing stuff into appropriate folders, so now all I need to do is finely tune where they belong and pack away some fatpack colours/outfits and i’m DONE!   See it doesn’t really take that long, why I let it get so bad is beyond me!   Maybe it’s cos I am Fashion’s Bitch.. wait no… I’m really not, I’m probably one of the LEAST fashionable people on the grid now and you know what? I KINDA LIKE IT!   I should revert back to my old shape, skin, hair and outfits from ’04 and win title of NOOB OF THE UNIVERSE, ok now i’m just bein ridiculous, sorry.

So that’s it, it’s really just a post to make me not feel so bad for not posting more often but HELLO – DOUBLE XP IN LOTRO, I haz better things to do than *removed because I don’t want to be *that* kinda person*.. YES I DO!  Ok I don’t really but my SL time is short these days, my interest has momentarily waned!

OK ENOUGH WAFFLE <3
