Freebie finds

Moniq — Wed, 08 May 2013 08:01:32 +0000

It’s been a while since my last freebie post, and I felt that people who read this blog need to be somehow rewarded, because most of the time I send them to spend their lindens. Now it’s time for me to show you some free or almost free goodies.

After being away from SL for five days, I came back with a renewed desire to explore, dress up and go hunting. Yes, hunting. This used to be my favorite thing to do in SL back in the day, but somehow I lost my passion for hunting, because of the too many hunts going on at the same time on the grid. However, I was in a mood for some hunting yesterday, so I checked the Little Big Hunt and the Be Glam Hunt, looking for pretty prizes. And I did find some to show you!

Also featured in this post are the new group gift eyes by Ikon, the new subscriber gift at Pure Poison and new hair in the Analog Dog freebie ball.

Plus, I tried to used the new vignette feature in the Firestorm Phototools. Sadly, it only works as intended when you take snapshots at the window/screen resolution. If you work with high res photos, you’ll get what happened in the photo below. I kinda love the effect though, so I decided not to take another photo:

Chantilly Lace and a Pretty Face

caryn Ashe — Thu, 18 Apr 2013 18:58:00 +0000

I get the most unique array of little things to blog in blogger packs. The other day, I received a special sculpt for the mouth, and when it was worn, it stuck my avi's tongue out to show a gummy bear on my tongue. I love the playful along with the serious fashion. Sometimes I get a whole pack of items designed to match so the consumer doesn't have to work too hard to match shoes and jewelry with the outfits they buy.

Featured 7 Deadly S{k}inss Envy B4a T2 DEF
Featured Mirror's Enigma Superbia Eyelashes
Featurd EMO-tions Paradise (from the Fantasy Faire, 100% for RFL)

3. Face Paint: Call of the Wild
4. Shear Modifiable Tights by Caryn

7. Adorkable Pose

Sometimes I want to see what I can do with pieces from multiple sources, but I also want to show you what the designer created when they made a recent release, so I came up with this idea, shown above in the photograph. I can style an outfit with pieces that mix and match, and show versatility, and also show you the original pack. Shadow Moon's Wild Thing Cheetah came with everything all ready to wear. I just played with it a bit and came up with my own interpretation shown also on the right.

Not Where It Ends… This Is Just a Beginning

caryn Ashe — Wed, 17 Apr 2013 21:06:00 +0000

There are ways of looking at life where things that are ending really means they are just beginning. I remember finally understanding Algebra, then in the fall, Calculus was required. When I graduated from High School, College began.

I finally reached my goal of graduating from MVWA. I find it exciting, but only the beginning of becoming a polished, recognized and respected model. This new phase takes just as much concentration and as much passion as well. I've been styling for a year now, intentionally beginning blogging so I would have multiple points of view from designers to practice with and ultimately because I simply loved blogging! I look at this new outfit by [[Massoom]] and the great poses from Demise of Flight and I think to myself, what a wonderful gift to be given, the opportunity to represent these creative people. Each time I go to a casting, or enter a contest or anything else related to our fashion world in Second Life, I know I grow and improve. This is just the beginning. Hang on to your hats, its going to be a wild ride!

Exclusive item from [[Massoom]] can be found at the Kawaii Fair

All the Small Things

caryn Ashe — Tue, 16 Apr 2013 09:03:00 +0000

It's the little things in life that make the difference. Our brains map details like the pixels are a map of color our Second Life paints. You have to zoom in very very close to see each shade and even then our brains cannot really process 16 billion bits of data so we think we see red and blue and yellow.

Featured Demise of Flight Ombre Minidress

Featured Mirror's Enigma Azuka Milk Skintone from Kawaii Fair
1. Custom Shape
2. EMO-tions: Lala
3. Poetic Eyes: Autumn Colors - Storm
4. Sexy Mama Valentine Manicure
5. R2: Azuli Silver
6. This Image Essentials Prop is a combination of items purchased from various merchants as well as items created by [Kay Weston].

Some would say the games we play online, including Second Life, are just trifles, things to entertain, things that aren't really important but I have to disagree. I may not be able to see 16 billion color distinctions but I know that if they weren't there, my world would be far more dull. I also know that my Second Life is like those billions of undetectable nuances in color, and all of the experiences I have here do make an impact.

caryn Ashe — Tue, 09 Apr 2013 19:22:00 +0000

I'd do anything, that you wanted me to... lyrics from one of my favorite country music artists Tim McGraw... defines the core of my personality. It takes a long time for me to really get comfortable around people, but once I am, I'd do anything just to see them smile.

Do I always succeed? No. I like to think I get better with time, and the development touches every facet, but some days will always be better than others and some things just never will fit. I have a few friends who shake their head and say, "Um... no Caryn" and I smile and agree, and go back to the drawing board... just to see you smile.

I’m In a New York State of Mind

caryn Ashe — Thu, 28 Mar 2013 13:18:00 +0000

I'm partial to Snowpaws for many reasons, but one of the ones at the core of the positive emotions resounds in the relationship I've been privileged to develop over time with Carrie Snowpaw.

Way... way... back in time, she supported the Face of Face Paint contest with Eve Express, committing new outfits to the winner(s).

I had peripherally known of Snowpaws for a long time prior to March 2012, but when I won one of the spots at Face Paint thus also winning clothing from Snowpaws, I got to know it a bit more.

Ever since, I have worked with Carrie Snowpaw, writing the weekly blog, posting sales, special events, news and fashion shows she's done. All the while, besides a business relationship building trust, we also developed a welcome friendship.

She's one of those people you simply want to know because she exudes a warmth that is genuine, and in her little niche in Second Life, she's poured out that warmth to so many many people.

Not only does she participate in a half dozen or so special sales events each week, she also joins hunts and makes high quality treasures for those hunts, and then there are all the ways you can win free items.

But there's even more to it than that. Every so often, I think of the phrase, "Go the extra mile," and how it relates to her and to Snowpaws. She contributes items to a conglomeration of charity based fund raisers.

No, she's not a Saint yet, but I don't know if anyone has petitioned the new Pope Francis to recognize her as one... yet. When I get to wo (Read more...)

Pretty Girl Is Suffering While He Confesses Everything

caryn Ashe — Tue, 26 Mar 2013 15:12:00 +0000

Yesterday I was approached by Heath Blessed who asked me for support and help with a project he and his partner Ilyssa are working on and I investigated a bit then joined his team. Of all the things I can do with my time online, raising money to help others less fortunate than I makes me feel like I'm using my time wisely.

This is the information I have so far:

They want to orchestrate an event in Second Life that will include kiosks, a fair and several fashion shows.
They want to donate money to the Kids Help Phone (kidshelpphone.ca) and have already contacted the agency to orchestrate this with them.
They seek individuals, groups, designers and models to help them accomplish their dream.
They began an in world group that you're welcome to join called ~Arret Le Saignement~ (Stop the bleeding.) and encourage you to join and get involved if you are willing and able to help.

Most of the photos I take intentionally look happy. Happy people wearing beautiful clothing makes others feel good. Today, I looked for a way to be beautiful but also to look wistful, thoughtful, even sad.

Then I found lyrics by Pink. I don't know her personal story but from the lyrics she sings, I sense that she had a very difficult childhood. I read through the lyrics of Pretty Girl and it seemed to be an apt song to associate with this fundraiser, so I used some of the lyrics to name these two photos. There are agencies around the world, not just in Canada, set up to help children similar to the Kids Help (Read more...)

Don’t Play With Me (Fashion for Life Day 3)

caryn Ashe — Mon, 11 Mar 2013 00:05:00 +0000

I received a note card from someone with the list of participants for Fashion for Life and all of the kiosk locations and I was overwhelmed. Then I began to visit the builds and to use a cliche phrase I rarely ever utter, "Oh My God!"

The Seven Wonders of the world seen through the eyes of creative geniuses in Second Life really come alive in a way that I've never really considered. I loved each of the locations for different reasons, but my favorite has to be the Colossus of Rhodes.

I walked up a steep incline, cheated a bit and flew for a bit, and found my way into the legs, the waist, and the chest. And in each of this giant statue's limbs, there were stores! How creative was that? I was imagining myself back in 200 BC, looking at this massive structure, and thinking about the nations around the island of Rhodes and how awed they must have been - and scared to death.

I was in awe, and we're talking about a malleable 3D world. It also made me wonder what those people at Rhodes might have stored in the statue when it was still one of the Ancient World's magnificent structures. Grain? Or maybe something so much more fantastic. I know that the items found at Fashion for Life are fantastic and amazingly housed. You have to see it to believe it.

Intoxicated (Fashion for Life Day 2)

caryn Ashe — Sun, 10 Mar 2013 14:18:00 +0000

Perhaps there is as little chance of saying too much about this charity fund raiser as there is of being just a little bit pregnant. Fashion for Life is just huge, and one of my favorite things about Second Life in general.

A number of people I know have invested a huge amount of time to make this year the best year yet. EMO-tions not only contributed to raise money by designing this hair (Dunja) and two others (plus a free gift just for visiting), they are the sim sponsor of Colossus of Rhodes.

Though it isn't a traditional crown, this particular style still makes me feel like a princess. All I need is a prince charming and I'll ride off into the sunset. EMO-tions does a great job of creating diverse looks. This is just one of them.

Chop Zuey also contributed to Fashion for Life (the set seen in this photo isn't from there, but coming soon!) and continues to support amazing charities, not to mention the free items shared with the public, even if you cannot afford to join the group. Charity comes in all packages.

There is a note card floating around Second Life that lists all of the sponsors and participants at Fashion for Life. It's easy to put the SLURL into your program, and voila, land exactly where you want to be. Also, Angel Dessous sent out an alpha texture that's wearable that makes the wearer completely invisible, like Harry Potter's invisibility cloak, so you can weave through Fashion for Life with as few items worn that create lag. What a novel idea!

What’s Your Price for Flight?

caryn Ashe — Tue, 26 Feb 2013 17:34:00 +0000

The challenge was to identify a specific animal then style an outfit that reminded the viewer of the animal in a way that was abstract. I was encouraged not to make use of animal skins (which are hugely popular right now so the temptation was incredible!!

The first time I created the look for this challenge, I went in a completely different direction. In so many ways, I needed to redo the challenge and in that editing process, I had the most fun discovering new designers and utilizing pieces from my past.

I found this imaginative dress by sYs. I've never owned anything created by them and I loved thee texture and the flitting bit of fantasy that the skirt imbued. I built the rest of the look around the skirt, and came up with this composition. I've had a number of people ask me, "Where did you get that dress?" It's not a dress. The first in store modeling job I took was modeling for Carrie's Lingerie. The top comes from Carrie's Sins Collection. It was a nod to the past, acknowledgement that every dream takes time, but eventually if you determine to make it, that dream WILL take flight.

At what cost? What's your price for flight? When you dream a little dream with me, do you realize that dreams take perseverance? I knew my passion to model would take time, but even I did not realize the time it would take. I didn't realize how much of my heart and soul would pour into this dream to make it reality. Like the beautiful blue macaw, I want to fly freely into the future. Will you com (Read more...)

What Is Your Passion?

caryn Ashe — Mon, 25 Feb 2013 04:21:00 +0000

This weekend, I caught the marathon version of this season's Top Chef. Like many reality television opportunities, this show offers something very special and important. One of the participants had to make a difficult decision near the end of the series because his wife went into labor while he was far away in Alaska competing and he chose his passion to create fine foods and the opportunities potentially his, should he win the competition rather than packing up and heading home. He missed his daughter's birth. Was it a good thing or bad thing? I don't know how to quantify such a choice. For him in that moment, he embraced his passion and he stood strong in his belief that his family supported him even in his absence for such a great moment.

The people I've met in Second Life show different levels of passion. To some I suppose it really is just a video game and that's great for them. To others, however, it's part of their life. Despite the fact that it occurs in virtual space, it still occurs and means a great deal. Those who share a passion for art or design or commerce or any other niche in Second Life sacrifice other things in their world to make their passion their reality.

The designer for Liv-Glam works tirelessly to create beautiful items daily. I think she eats, sleeps and breathes her passion into her Second Life business. It shows too. Cucinelli, the pretty little pink frock seen in the photo. While some designers bring out new items once every two weeks or so, Samant (Read more...)

Face Paint: Where a Beautiful Face is Our Business

caryn Ashe — Wed, 20 Feb 2013 21:13:00 +0000

I don't think I realized just how close I'd grown to the owner of Face Paint till this week. I've admired her. I've worked for her. I've learned a lot from her. This week, I realized she filled a role that I was lacking in my personal life. I lost my mother in 2006, and it'd been a long time since someone touched my life in a maternal way, but Eve Express has done so.

The latest look from Face Paint - Love & Care - is exactly the name I'd give for the earnest spirit Eve brings to Second Life, to the business, to her friends, to the modeling industry. She really does LIVE this abstract concept daily.

I watch the award shows, often while I'm working in Second Life, so I don't see all the nuts and bolts, but I do see the people in their perfect looks and dream. Who doesn't dream for a moment in the spotlight?

With a mentor maternal figure in my Second Life like Eve, I know that every day is a victory, and if I were dreaming of the red carpet night, I'd go home from Face Paint... but also go home to Face Paint... and I find joy in that. And Love and Care.

Gold

caryn Ashe — Tue, 12 Feb 2013 06:18:00 +0000

Jon Stewart wrote a song, "Gold" about the process of artistic creation and how to make sure it sells. A good song writer, a singer, someone who's good with mechanics in the music industry... they all have something in common. They've figured out how to turn music into GOLD.

As members of the fashion industry, we in like manner work to turn our passions into gold. I have heard often that you cannot expect to get rich while you model. It's a challenging business.

I perched in the chair, just outside the ballroom, a cup of tea to sip as I gather the courage to ask you...

Flirtatious eyes flicker back to you, over my shoulder. A breathless moment ensues...

Every day, I devote time to work in Second Life. I really do work. I want to do it. I enjoy it. And I do like it when my passion for the work earns money. I do many things without any notion of pay, but when someone does choose to pay me, it's treasured.

I hear the first notes from the orchestra drifting from the room beside us, tickling my ears, teasing my desire to bravado till I finally ask, "Will you dance with me?"

I think the single greatest thing I have ever done for pure fun has been to dance in Second Life. Even when the dances were very unpretty and jittery in the early years, I just loved to dance. Now the scripts and the animations are so much more clever. I went to a live dance performance (though I cannot recall the troupe's name) and was in awe of how dance had progressed in Second Life. I just love it. Seriously, wil (Read more...)

Mix it up

Nieve Thor — Thu, 31 Jan 2013 17:54:51 +0000

I really like this top. I couldn't resist to make 3 styles out of it. This is consider one of the new item released by Miamai called Rure. it comes in 6 colours; black, blue, pink, purple, red & silver. Lol I already used half of it. It started with the style on right. At first, I used different pants but while I was doing the second style with idea for 3rd style, I heard Kyoot is going to be closed :( I already have that Kyoot's skirt on. So I've decided to mix all of this top with Kyoot. Finally I use only Del May poses...so consider this post a mixture of Miamai + Kyoot + Del May.

I still undecided to do half-body shot or face shot for each of these style because I was afraid my graphic card die on me again -- it happened for few days. Nat help me out. So far so good. Just keep my finger cross. If you think I should do it, just leave comment in here or in my flickr.

Baboom released a series of layered outfits last week. Basically, there is a gorgeous lingerie layer replete with sexy corset, stockings and garter, and a matching mesh maxi skirt.

The corsets all had that jungle wild appeal and the skirts can mix and match.

Depending on where you're going and who you're with, you might enjoy using all of the layers.

And in other cases, you might enjoy showing just a little more skin to tease and tempt a loved one.

Wherever you go with Baboom! you'll look terrific. The designer has just the right touch!

It’s Been A While: EMO-tions (1.19.2013 Releases)

caryn Ashe — Tue, 29 Jan 2013 05:28:00 +0000

It's been a while for me to share ideas and information here. My world off line has been tugging more than usual. I imagine we all have that occur from time to time. Hopefully after tomorrow gets sorted, things return to my normal. Blogging for me offers such a release, and because of that, it's beyond fun.

While I've been away, EMO-tions has had two new release weekends. I'm dividing them accordingly to be sure you know which ones came first. This first style, Bittersweet is long and wavy, and will appear in an entire series with this gorgeous Chop Zuey Zenshi exclusive jewelry and a sexy layered lingerie set, so you'll see it from other angles as well as this.

This hair from EMO-tions, Maresol, offers a unique updo with or without the scarf attached to the hair. I've never been very good at manipulating my long straight hair into braids or updos so when I find styles like this from EMO-tions, it fulfills a little nook of need I've wanted for quite a long time.

Another extremely long style, Shima, reminded me of photos of my family with my mother happily sporting the distinct hippie look. I don't recall the late 60s or early 70s because I was just a wee tyke, but photos like this are familiar to me. It's a great retro style.

Liv-Glam and [VCB] Plus PMVH Items from Rivendell and Baubles

caryn Ashe — Fri, 11 Jan 2013 22:20:00 +0000

With the arrival of 2013, it's time for me to take new risks, step outside the box so to speak, and play with camera angles, settings in world regarding light and shadow, and go beyond just taking a photo. I know this, like any other step, will take time to perfect and in the process, sometimes it will look amazing while other times I will shake my head and grimace.

Inundated with all the holidays and family and things distracting, it'd been a while since I really sifted through the amazing designs that pour out of Liv-Glam. I truly adore the designer and tease her about the story of the shoemaker and the elves, and ask her from time to time where she hides her elves.

I LOVED this new dress. It's a favorite, a nod to Asian style, and the beauty of texturing. It's rare for me to want to take so many different photos, but this comes from the fun of the moment, a step beyond the responsibility to the blog. Playing with lighting is one way I have evolved my photography, shooting pictures with all sorts of lighting, night and day. When I added Face Paint's new Sophisticate's "Poison" (preview for the full release coming soon), it looked stunning. A make-up that fits any time of day makes the investment even more appealing.

I joined Chop Zuey's group after only a few thousand nudges from my boss at Face Paint. I know how big a fan Eve is and I know she just wanted me to see the beauty in Chop Zuey creations. I owned a few pieces from Chop Zuey, but now I have so many (Read more...)

Lashae Karsin — Sat, 22 Dec 2012 16:29:38 +0000

I’m a little late with the post for the new collection at The Gallery Gift Shop this month, but I do have it up just in time for you to snag a few gifts for the people still on your Christmas list. If you have never visited this venue, you can find a variety of designers offering items that can (mostly) be gifted to friends. Typical products found at The Gallery Gift Shop include clothing, accessories and decor. Since some designers do not change out their items on a monthly basis, there are other items available that are not featured in the gallery since they have been blogged in previous posts. Make sure to check the permissions on items since most (but not all) items are no copy/transfer.

Hello there! :)

Olela — Mon, 03 Dec 2012 12:36:38 +0000

*suddenly enters the room, visibly excited, waving at everyone*

Hello folks, Olela is back

RL kept me really busy the last three months, lots of things happened, i’ve also moved. I missed SL, i missed blogging, i missed you! Now i’m back and my inventory seems sooo poor and full of old stuff, but this problem will be fixed soon with lots of shopping which has already started. It feels so good, oh yeah!

I received an amazing dress from the talented Aliza Karu, it’s one of her latest releases and i love it so much that i’ve decided to wear it in the first snaps i’ve taken after my return.

It’s called Covetousness, it’s mesh and also comes with sculpted skirt and hat which i’m not wearing in the picture. Aliza never stops amazing me!

The adorable skin is the Pink Fuel item from the With Love hunt, the lovely hair is Ramona from esk-imo.

I took these snaps at Lea1 and played a bit with the Phototools settings, one of the new veeery interesting features of the latest Firestorm Major release.

I hope you’ll enjoy them, as much as my look

I’ll be back soon with some other wonderful stuff to show you, yayyyy!

Ciao xxx

good morning

Vixxie Vultee — Fri, 16 Nov 2012 12:53:10 +0000

giiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiirl, it is *too* early in the morning right now in my area of the world. the sun is barely high enough in the sky to make it light out && yet here i am, awake. now, sometimes i don’t mind an early start to the day, but today… mmh, i dunno if i am feelin’ it yet. maybe i need a cup of coffee…

…and, perhaps, a best friend to prance around in my underwears with.

cause, y’know, that’s the best thing to do at the buttcrack of dawn. ;P and luckily for us, there is a *hunt* going on right now to supply us with said underwears… free of charge~

the dirty pillows hunt started at the beginning of the month && bff vivi and i were pretty excited to tuck in to it. me, i was most excited for the fact that free lingerie is the best lingerie (considering out of all the categories of clothing there are in my virtual wardrobe, the smallest folder is for bras ‘n’ panties), but for vivi… she was excited because this hunt includes boobies.

the grid has seemingly exploded lately with big ole titties. clothing ads, blog posts, flickr pics… it’s hard to miss ‘em nowadays. and while i’ve always been happy with a smaller cup-size, vivienne on the other hand took the plunge and picked up a pair of lola’s prim breasts.

for what they are, they are *definitely* nicer than bumpin’ the sliders up to max. the shape, fit, and general appearance of vivi’s boobs look *awe (Read more...)

witch

Vixxie Vultee — Mon, 29 Oct 2012 23:09:40 +0000

it’s getting *clooooooser*! only *two* more days until halloween.. are you excited as i am!?

the costume look i’ve got for today is another one for halloween on a budget. i already did one costume on the cheap && today, i’ve got a second one~

i know it’s already made rounds on the feeds, but i could *not* resist blogging this dress from g field myself. it’s *free* and so adorable.. and perfectly halloween. and i immediately saw it as a very appropriate dress for a witch to wear.

so i added in some more free accessories.. like the orange ‘n’ black nails + bracelet combo i’m wearing here is a *group gift* for candy nail group members. you know i love my prim nails && the gifts from candy nail are always lovely, so i was excited to see these out for the taking. the set comes with a pair of earrings as well, which i’m not wearing here, but it all works well for adding in some extra halloween colors into a look.

the li’l one-tooth’d pumpkin i’m hugging above, as well as the bats i had swirling all around me (which look *amazing* but are so hard to photograph! but they’re there, i promise! eh heh) are both vip group gifts from epic. if you’re in need of some more halloween goodies, the epic group is *so* worth the price of admission. jade winthorpe is always generous to her groupies && there are lots of halloween-themed gifts for group members… currently, there& (Read more...)

a queen && her minion

Vixxie Vultee — Sat, 27 Oct 2012 00:31:12 +0000

i’m (an evil) queen for a day..

…complete with my very own minion!

this look was *all* for fun.. and inspired by these adorable plastic crowns @ collabor88 by laviere. i knew i had to do an evil fairy queen kind of look with this crown and my *petite* li’l friend here was more than willing to dress up with me. she seemed to think she was a teeny tiny princess, but alas… she is my minion instead! /me cackles maniacally….

anyway!

this costume all started with the crown, but it really came together when i started playing around in my inventory. i got lucky with the halloween gatchas @ the depraved nation and was able to snag these super cute horns by chus in red… which matched this dress i’ve had for *ages* from katat0nik quite nicely. some freebie kiss-dotted stockings by sheer && a pair of color-change pumps from gos matched, too, and when i added the wings (because *every* evil fairy queen needs wings!) from epic and this wonderfully sparkly wand (because *every* evil queen needs a wand, too!) from love always.. this look suddenly became very evil-queenly indeed.

truth be told, i did most of the shopping for this look right in my own inventory. it’s a mixture of some older items && a few new ones, but i was really surprised how easy it came together. perhaps i was *meant* to be an evil queen.. like it’s kismet, y’know? i had most of the things to put together this look already, maybe i truly am an e (Read more...)

playboy

Vixxie Vultee — Thu, 25 Oct 2012 21:00:40 +0000

halloween is the one night a year when girls can dress like a total slut and no other girls can say anything about it.

so, apparently i like quoting mean girls… but! i figured it was a fitting quote, considering the costumes bff vivi && i are wearing in my post for today..

i’ve done creepy, i’ve done cute, i’ve done character cosplay…. time for somethin’ simply sexy for halloween! and there is little that’s sexier than two playboy bunnies.

all we need is a nice tray of martinis to serve..

aaaaanyway! the key to these looks are these mesh bodysuits from hucci. we both picked these up @ collabor88 several rounds ago, but thankfully these sets are still available at the hucci mainstore. vivienne is wearing the entire set here — including the cuffs, collar, ears && tail — and these are *perfect* for a halloween costume all in one.

i accessorized my look with an rabbit ear ‘n’ tail set i picked up from o.m.e.n. (because i was trying to better match my ears/tail to my hair color.. is that weird?), which includes several sets of these *adorable* bunny ears and tails in a bunch of color choices. these sets are so cute, as is the kitsune set i wore here, and i love that the ears come in straight-up versions as well as the one-ear-bent variation i’m wearing here~

add in some super high heels from n-core, bright red lipstick (mine from pink fuel, vivi’s from glam affair) && a cute st (Read more...)

when i was younger, i was obsessed with batman. legit obsessed. the batman animated series was smack dab in the middle of my childhood — i’d watch it *every. single. day.* after school. and my obsession with batman all started with a little movie called batman returns. i’m really dating myself here, but i remember when that movie came out… and i remember being totally fascinated by it.

as i’ve grown older, i still love me some batman (for evidence, see see right here) and i’ve also come to love all things tim burton… and the two original batman movies *still* rank pretty damn high on my list of favorites. michael keaton will forever be batman to me. but my favorite character, hands down, in all of batman-verse…

…is catwoman.

michelle pfeiffer’s catwoman was *it* for me. she is catwoman… anne hathaway who? i mean, i know selena kyle was originally a brunette, but to me? she’ll always be a crazy feline-obsessed *blonde* bombshell who looks amazing in skin-tight leather. so of course, she was perfect for me to cosplay! ;D

my own version of catwoman all started after my trip to the cinema event… where i spied this mask ‘n’ hair combo by mina && immediately snagged it. i saw it, i had to have it, and i was instantly thinking of ways to dress myself up as selena kyle.

so i needed a catsuit. ..obviously. xD and while i own several in varying leather && latex textures, this one (Read more...)

schoolgirls

Vixxie Vultee — Thu, 18 Oct 2012 19:01:31 +0000

sometimes, halloween is about… indulgences. the holiday gives you free reign to dress up as whatever you like. a vampire, a ghost, a zombie…. anything that tickles your fancy.

so today, it’s actually my best friend who inspired these costumes. bff vivi is *all* about the anime, so when we found a few key accessories on the marketplace..

…i knew i’d have to indulge her, just a li’l bit.

these mesh heads from utilizator are all kinds of awesome — i’m wearing the regular female version but vivienne is wearing the *chibi* style (and is so cute i could scream x3) — and are chalk full of options. there are several facial expressions, including different mouth and eyebrow positions, as well as different eye styles and colors… and each come in three skin tones, with matching skins and head pieces, for tons of customization.

these would be fantastic for cosplay in sl — emulating a favorite character from an anime or manga series would be a breeze with these head pieces — but they also work for making up your own types of characters like vivi && i have done.

she and i decided to dress as close as we could get to *anime schoolgirls*, with her outfit coming from collabor88 by r2. when the collection rolled over at the beginning of the month && we saw these sailor suits out… vivienne and i both knew we had to do something with them for halloween. luckily for us, rei2 aya made some *fantastic* m (Read more...)

don’t mind me, i’m just lounging around today..

suppose i needed to recover from the nekkidness of yesterday. ;P

so i slipped into a comfy (and still pretty!) tank top from red mint && these cozy mesh socks from intrigue co (out @ collabor88) that are totally adorbs and called it a day.

my hair for today is actually a *freebie*(!!) from magika — two colors of this faint hairstyle, the orange-dipped style i’m wearing here && another tipped in red, are available to subscribo members free for halloween! this straight bang’d style, complete with long curly q strands falling over the shoulders, is one of my favorite releases to date from magika.. so i may have squee’d a li’l when i saw these out for the grabbing.

and because i cannot resist accessorizing even a little bit, i tried on this *new* necklace from amorous and totally fell in love… this orange color is gorgeous, all the metal bits ‘n’ pieces are color change (ranging from dark silver to a deep bronze to a shiny black), and all the details on this piece are just perfection.

i may be recovering from a bout of outfit block, and still not quite fully covered here, but at least i’m not subjecting everyone to my bare boobies again! bwahahah~

it’s never too early

Vixxie Vultee — Mon, 08 Oct 2012 02:47:16 +0000

it’s never too early, in my humble opinion, to start thinking about halloween…

i love christmas, i love easter, i love my birthday (yes, my birthday *totally* is a holiday, tyvm).. but there’s just *something* about halloween that really tickles my fancy. it’s been the holiday i look most forward too all year ever since i was a little kid. i love dressing up, i love scary ghost stories, the candy isn’t bad … it’s just fun. and figuring out costumes in my sl as well as my rl is just as exciting!

bff vivi && i both absolutely fell in love with these gatcha skins from pxl released earlier this week. each face is something different and the variations range from super spooky to pretty and whimsical. but these two skull-versions, mine as more of a hollow skeleton face and vivi’s as an absolutely stunning sugar skull, really inspired us both~

we dressed in lovely, frilly dresses.. both from violent seduction. both ensembles are a little older, but awesome nevertheless. i’ve been a *total* mesh convert ever since it went grid-wide, but there are some things that mesh just cannot do yet. and tiered fabrics, with movement and frills and delicate flexible lace pieces are something that just wouldn’t look as nice in mesh. and these dresses are a nice example of how newer doesn’t always necessarily mean better.

plus they both really give our looks a whole… sylvia ji kind of vibe, which is something both v (Read more...)
