I feel pretty…
.. and I do! This new skin is from Al Vulo and is out now for the Big Bo.obies Show! Al Vulo skins are above and beyond gorgeous, always… this is just one of the lovely ones to choose from… more below the pic!
This is Portia in Olive, available also in Fairy and Sunkissed, a gorgeous, seamless skin with pink pouty lips and a hint of dark smouldering shadow. Each skin comes with an array of options including different brows, boob appliers, mesh lashes, eyes, cleavage option and even a minimizer tattoo for those that don’t want a bigger cleavage. I gotta say I really love this skin on me, paired with a pair of IKON eyes and an Elikatira hair, I think I look amazing and I am NOT a person to go around going OMG I AM SO PRETTY, but I really do feel it!
Also shown is one of various new sets from Donna Flora! This is Ravesc in White. A gorgeous chunky number complete with earrings, ring and necklace. I love the flower piece on these items, not hugely delicate and fragile looking like a lot of flower related items in SL, but more sturdy and solid with thick petals and wonderful texturing. These are items fit for a pretty person, so, of course, I had to put them on while I was feeling so pretty… did I mention I felt REALLY pretty?!
I do!

Day 27 of 365 LoTD – Lazy Sunday & New @ Zaara!
A few new goodies for you today, thrown in with a LoTD!
Today sees a very simple LoTD with really just a sweater, so I decided to add What Next’s Lazy Sunday items in the background too! These are available today for a reduced cost and you can put them out a singles, or one big linked party of prints, very classy and a great addition to ANY room decor! The Sweater from NiNight Creations I am wearing is actually an old Lazy Sunday item. Again, it is a simple piece of clothing, just a thick knit hoodie really, but being able to wear it like a dress is a bonus, so I don’t have to fit any jeans or leggings under it YAY! I am also wearing one of the three new Truth Hairs. This is the cutsey of the lot, Essie… a pig tail style that’s simple, cute and makes me want to suck on a lollipop!
Worn above, and below is one of the Al Vulo TDR Fusion Skins, you can find three makeups there all in this sultry Chocolate tone, very pretty. Below I showcase just one of the colours of the new mesh Zaara Jewellery line! The Atiriya Jewellery set is a gorgeous work of art available in 6 stone options (including both gold and silver metals) and the bonus is you can buy each piece individually or get a discounted set as well as a huuuuuge mega fatpack!
You can see the love and care that has gone into creating these items, so intricate and detailed, so beautiful and whimsical! I love them. I have opted to show the Turquoise colour as it’s one of my fave colours, which will be YOUR fave?

Happy Sunday, folks <3

Happy New Hair Day!!
THERE IS NEW HURRRRR UP IN HURRRRR
Both Elikatira and Truth released today, I have yet to get my mitts on Truth’s hair, so for now you get to see the wonderful Elikatira duo! Only and Sound are two very different styles and both as beautimus as the other! Only is a curly, twirly updo complete with colour change via HUD mesh bow! I love the little curls up on top, they make the style even cuter! Sound is a sexy longer style, with cascading waves of hair over the shoulder and short, full, choppy bangs for a sensual and sexy look. You should own both of these styles, like. NOW!
The dress I am wearing is from Baiastice and is the FaMESHed item for this round! Isn’t it divine?! A suedey looking dress with ruches and creases and unffff. I love it. It comes in the colour combos you see above and standard sizes as usual. I love that you have the more neutral colours and then you get ones with a pop of colour like the mustardy yellow and the fushia pink! This is definitely a dress that makes you look both classy and sexy at the same time, FaMESHed is full of wonderous things this time around! YAY!
The skin I am wearing is the Al Vulo TDR Fusion skin and was only $L70!! A total bargain, it comes with tango appliers too, as well as various tattoos for brows etc. The eyes I am wearing are both from Insufferable Dastard, and I mix and matched them with the Mesh prim that they came with! Cute… no?

Christmas Eve!
Everyone is excited.. or are they?
I gotta admit I am feeling rather bah humbug this year, tomorrow when gifts are opened and faces are happy though, I know I’ll feel differently! But what better to treat yourself to in SL than a nice new dress, some new hair and a new skin?? If only it were that easy in RL, right? Well this dress is available from Sysys for the Capricorn round of Zodiac, it’s available in a handful of colours but I chose a festive red! It’s a cute little dress that can be worn as dress or top, if you feel it’s too short! The hair is another 12 Days of Christmas hair from Ploom and comes with and without the coontail option, but I rather like it with, makes for a bit of a change, no? The skin is Al Vulo and is from TDR Fusion, Lyala is cute and gorgeous and comes with eyes and lashes too (not shown), and is a total steal! YAY!
I decided to have a bit of a play with makeup today, with my new Al Vulo skin, I paired the MONS makeups available from TDR Fusion too. MONS has two sets out, lipsticks and eyeshadows. I was immediately drawn to the lips as they look so luscious and kissable, they come in some kooky colours but where is the fun in trying things on if you don’t get to look a bit different to the norm?! I think my fave might actually be the Green, so cute!
The eyeshadows available are quite heavy and glittery as you can see, so definitely not for every day wear, unless this is what you wear every day, then yay! good job. The sparkles are heavy, and there is a little splash of colour in the corners to co-ordinate outfits with. HUZZAH!

Winter Fair 2012!
Hello guys! Winter is officially upon us, we even had Snow in my part of the world today. The Winter Fair 2012 is almost upon us too, and there are a lot of goodies for you to purchase, some exclusive, some not, but I’m sure there will be at least one thing there you love and take home with you, I have just a handful to show you today:
Intrepid have a whole array of items out for you, in a whole bunch of colours! The sets come with various items, including everything you see, clothes wise, here! The belted cardigan is just too cute! With a great knit texture and slim waist belt, it compliments the jeans wonderfully, and each colour comes with a matching long sleeve teeshirt too. The trenchcoat on your right is also super cute, I believe it’s a template item, as I’ve seen it before, but each one I’ve seen has it’s own spin, this chevron style texture is lovely!
Hair by Lamb & Clawtooth
The skin I am wearing above, and the close up below is the Winter Fair Al Vulo skin! What a beauty! A porcelain doll with perfect peachy lips, you also get the eyes included too, icy stare ftw!
Hair by Clawtooth
I am wearing the long sleeve top from the Intrepid set with a mesh open cardigan from Dew, and with some UGG style boots from PiCHi! The cardigan and boots both come in various colours, I just really loved the vivid red and the traditional camel style for the boots. I wore them with some of my fave jeans ever, the Dingy jeans from fri.day!
Hair by Magika
JeSyLiLo has at least 2 new skins there, with a gift too! I really love the one on the left, with the subtle tears and red nose, and I really love the lips on the one on the right! Both are gorgeous skins, a bit different but gorgeous. I do love me some JeSyLiLo!!

Around the World with Eleonor!
Around the World is STILL happening, and this time I bring you 5 unique looks from 22769!
This wonderfully talented store has out an array of items, both male and female, at around the world, ranging from sexy halter neck dresses, to the slinker side of the dress world, gorgeous handkerchief style tops, to the brighest, prettiest dresses I have seen. It really does have something for everyone, in various colours and of course in various sizes.
From L-R we have: Achieng, Eryka, Makeda, Olabisi Top/Leather Skirt and Dziko!! All of them are sooo different and this isn’t even all you can get! I can’t wait to go back and take a closer look, I have a feeling I am going to be VERY poor. I don’t think I have a fave release, although I am quite partial to the Makeda Dress and the Olabisi/Leather Skirt combo for sure. I have tried to make a slightly different look with all of them using a range of hairs from Lamb, LaViere (gorgeous Collabor88 hair!), Wasabi Pills, Exile and Elikatira and the skin we will talk about below!
Please visit and support Around the World, and don’t forget 22769 has 22769MILLION reasons to shop!
Al Vulo finally released a full Eleonor release, I knew I had to have it, because.. well, I just knew. So I didn’t even hesitate, I went, I purchased, I came home, I looked at my linden balance, I cried then I realised it was worth it. The whole fatpack was around $3k, which I think is a great deal as you get 14 skins and various shapes, addon tattoos and options galore including brows, cleavage and stuff.
I just cannot with how pretty the skin is, maybe it just really suits my shape, I don’t know, but I do know that I am in love. You get a nice range of makeups ranging from nude lips to dark reds, ruby reds to pale peaches, eyes that are smokey, eyes that are not, eyes like a peacock, nude eyes… I COULD GO ON, but I won’t. Just go and try them, you won’t be disappointed.

Around the World
Around the World, as mentioned in my previous post, starts TOMORROW PEOPLE *flail*… Here is a whole post dedicated to Magoa with a hint of Sways and a bit of Barnesworth, a whiff of Wasabi Pills and a lot of Al Vulo!
The items are being sold under the brand Ciao Bella! in the Western Europe section of Around the World, it’s not sold anywhere else atm although it was previously released (shortly) by Keira for the Magoa brand, these inspiring outfits were resurrected exclusively for the duration of ATW under Ciao Bella (BellaStaff Fhang ladies and gents, awesome lady TICAW). ANYWAY, that was just incase you were confused, I’ve probably confused you more, however.
First we start off with a set that includes the gorgeous Yuka Relaxation Set from Sways, the set comes with all the pieces shown but also in darker versions and with smaller planters, it’s an absolutely STUNNING set of items that would look great anywhere, mine looks particularly great in my Barnesworth Marrakesh Oasis that is currently on sale at Collabor88.
The outfit in this picture is the Circus of Intrigue, a sprightly little number with a ferris wheel headpiece, I really don’t need to say more, do I??? As an aside the skin worn in all pics is the Eleanor skin from Al Vulo, and the hair is the new and wonderful Kylee mesh hair from Wasabi Pills that is a gorgeous flowing style with a braid over the top for a cute, but sexy and sassy feel!
Next we have the Dahlia Outfit, complete with little top hat, this is the perfect dark picture of beauty and that something a lil different. Please remember that these items are NOT mesh, and do come with sculpt pieces etc, I know some people are not keen on that soooo just remember that if you’re click happy!
The Hug Yourself outfit might be one of my favs, complete with pretty (yes pretty) straight jacket, this number made me smile when I put it on, which probably wasn’t meant to happen but it made me happy that someone wasn’t afraid to think outside the box and do a gorgeous outfit complete with cuffs and the like that doesn’t make light of mental illness, more points out the constraints it can sometimes have on you, just because you aren’t IN a straight jacket, doesn’t mean you don’t feel confined by whatever your illness might be.
Much more below the cut! Read the rest of this entry
Wednesday’s Child…
… is full of grace. WELP, that’s not me then *buarts*… that’s a.. well I don’t think I need to explain what it is. I may not be a lady sometimes, but I do try and look like one, upon occasion, this is such an occasion.
I love this headpiece from Pididdle, it was recently set out at a discounted price for My Attic, and I fell in love. It’s a bit large, it’s a flower, and it’s not terribly Willisesque, but I think it makes a stunning addition to the look I tried to cobble together today! I don’t know if these are out in the main Pididdle store yet, but I hope they soon will be! I am also wearing the new Elikatira release: Interrupt! There is a tale of woe and misery and broken harddrives behind the name, all of which I pined throughout for Elika to come online and get the hair rigged and sorted, and yesterday it happened!
It’s such a beautiful style, a long loose braid, and the back is just as gorgeous with a bit of a bouffant braiding going on, loosely relaxing on the nape of your neck, a really nice detail, I thought. I paired it with the Wednesday Outfit from Shabby Cat, which is an ode to Wednesday Addams, one assumes! It is a pretty little mesh number complete with socks, that you can’t see *helpful face*, and finally the new awesome piercing from Cute Poison! Sae is ROCKING the piercings lately, and always has done, I remember Sae from way back when we were noobs, and she was just as talented then as she is now! I love her piercings as they are colour change, so I made this pretty cross all pink and sparkly, like my massive flower headpiece! TADA! Look complete. Well.. as soon as I popped on the Al Vulo skin, that is. She just tops the look off perfectly.
Also new, and again a little late for the Halloween type centrepiece here… This is the Anne skin from Reila, these are just 7 of the 12 skins available, all in this tone. The lips on this Reila Skin are a LOT better on me than the previous skin I blogged, and less pouty, although I do think I could work on them some more, but overall I’m pretty happy with how this fit on Willis with no tweaking. There are various makeups available, from barely there to more flamboyant butterfly eyes or flowers, or my fav, the bloody masterpiece! You get the eyes I am wearing, a cleaveage/non cleavage skin and teeth tattoo with all purchases too!

The Key to my Heart…
… well that isn’t up for grabs! BUT… this gorgeous Key Necklace from Lassitude & Ennui is!
Jackal made this stunning piece of mesh work for the newest round of Zodiac, held on the Mint Tulip sim! It comes in a variety of colours, I opted for the Silver/Red (the red is the gem in the centre). This is SUCH a gorgeous necklace, and I know quite a few ppl that are suckers for anything Necklace related, so I imagine this is a huge hit! The craftmanship is phenomenal and it’s a wonderful addition to a great Zodiac round!
My skin, which I have grown rather partial to, is from Al Vulo and was the Limited Bazzar item! I am not sure if there are any left, but I know that I am glad I got one! Soooo pretty, and hauntingly beautiful and pale! I thought the A:S:S “Tears in your Eyes” set would look great with this, and I was right. It comes with Tear tattoos and you can probably click through to the bigger picture to see a better picture of those! Finally, I needed a dress and some hair, I could think of NO better hair than the Teeloh hair from Wasabi Pills to obtain the look I was going for, and the stunning mesh “Cry Baby” dress from Schadenfreude for Collabor88 in this striking Blood Orange colour! To top the look off nicely I finished with the Mandala Mesh Ears, which had a gorgeous orange metal and stone to match my freshly squeezed look!

C88 – OCTOBER!
Well HELLLOOOO, it’s the 8th today, which can only mean… NEW COLLABOR88!!!!!
I am overwhelmed and awed by the goodies on offer in this cycle and I have only had a quick peek! I managed to throw together a LoTD like a mofoing princess (Hi, I’m wearing a crown, humour me), so here we are:
I cannot deal with how effin cute the theme and colours are for this month, this might be my fav EVER Collabor88 scheme!!! How can I resist anything in a Minty Green?? It’s one of the mothership colours to me. So this U.F.O shirt and cardigan (all in one) was screaming my name from the moment it was uploaded to the grid!! The shirt has Flamingos on it. HI. FLAMINGOS… I, of course, paired it with the Skirt also from U.F.O
I just made myself look cuter with the Fake Plastic Crown from LaViere, the Yummy Charm Necklace – which has a Flamingo, a Gun, a pair of Lips and a Shoe, and the Plume earrings from LaGyo, which coincidently are colour and metal change, so you can pair them up with your fav looks.
The hair is one of two hairs available at C88 from LaViere, who is becoming one of my FAV stores, and the skin is an older skin from Al Vulo, infact I think it was the Curio Fundraiser skin? I could be wrong, but I am cute, so wrong is therefore voided. *foldy arms*
I took a not very artistic, but useable close up collage of the smaller bits of the outfit for you to see how fookin’ lovely everything is! WEEEE!
