…and onto my AV

I’m back from vacation and just in time for bambi63 Rehula of The Closet to release a whole bunch of new items including dresses, skirt separates, belts and blouses. Each release is Southwestern inspired - and great for spring.

Starting with the “Concho” belts that come in black, white and brown (black and white shown here). They’re mod so you can fit them, although I didn’t need to do too much.

Then there’s the “Mexican” blouses, with bell sleeves and sculpted hem frill. They come in numerous colors, but I picked a few of my favorites below. All the prims are mod for any sizing you need to do.

Before I show more of the clothes, the eyes I’m wearing are from Sin Skins - and they’re new favorites. You get 9 pairs in each color pack (although I believe you can buy the size/color you prefer in singles as well) - light, medium and dark in three sizes. Shown below are light teal small, medium teal medium, and dark teal large as an example. Keep in mind that all Sin Skins are now deeply discounted as well!

I am leaving for vacation today - off to visit someone very dear to me. I’ll be back at the weekend, but until then, I’ll leave you with a couple new releases from artilleri and cute poses from Grapevine by Grazia Horwitz. If you haven’t been by to check out her poses and shapes, make it a point to visit.

Have a great week!

I blogged Damiani’s first skin “Michelle” a while back. Now, KaoZ Koba and Pompeja Rossini have created their second face, “Isabelle.” I think this skin shows some good improvements over its predecessor, while retaining an excellent body.

Quick reminder that these snaps have not been post processed beyond consolidating, cropping and framing.

Like Michelle, Isabelle comes in three tones and this time, the light tone is actually light, which should make fairer tone lovers happy. Isabelle - like Michelle - is still what I consider a more exotic face, so a truly fair skin probably wouldn’t look best.

There are 12 make-ups in each tone, and each is priced at $1500L, which includes 2 skins with different trim options.

In contrast to Michelle, the eyebrows are quite light - but I much prefer them. My biggest issue with the previous skin was the shading on the cheeks - which has been significantly toned down on Isabelle. I think that alone will make this skin more wearable for a broader audience.

I found these skins to be particularly shape dependent with the lips specifically. You may need to tweak your shape to get the lips the way you want them - although for the purposes of this post, I kept my shape unaltered. Cherie Parker shows the perfect lip shape for these skins here.

I’ve been rather quiet I know, but there are good reasons for that which I won’t bore you with In the meantime, the little time I have been in online has mostly been wrestling with an insanely disorganized inventory and trying to figure out where to begin…

I decided instead of tackling the mess, to start on a small mission: find a way to wear one of Paper Couture’s newest releases in a more “every day” way…you’ve seen other great mixes with Dancing Bears and Divinchi, so here’s mine based on “Soliloquy.”
