LAST DAY for SHOETOPIA 2013 and {{BSD Design studio}}!

I apologize, Blogspot crashed on me and I lost ton posts, so I am reloading....

My hands are about to give out, so I hope I can make this post quick! BabyChampagne Sass of {{BSD Design studio}}, makes some of the most beautiful and fashion forward accessories on the grid. She created the most fabulously original shoes for SHOETOPIA 2013. She is one talented and busy woman!

The first pair from {{BSD Design studio}} are these gorgeous Supermodel Heels:

{{BSD Design studio}}shoetopia supermodel

I know the shoes look a little off. I was having major viewer issues and the stunning mesh detail was not rezzing for me. I had my LOD maxed too! I wanted to show more versions of the shoes as well. After several relogs, I just gave up. I hope it was just due to the holiday weekend or I will have a serious problem (i.e, my video card). I hope BabyChampagne Sass accepts my sincere apologies. Anyway, these shoes are really pure love with their design. They come in a ton of gorgeous colors (dual tone and solids). As far as skin matching goes, they do not have skin matching database. However, the presets on the HUD will fit just about any skin. It is really incredible. I managed to match these shoes to several different skins in a matter of seconds!

The next pair from {{BSD Design studio}}, are the Surreal Shoes

These Surreal Shoes have such brilliant design. I love the antler trim. If you are looking for a statement shoe, {{BSD Design studio}} is the best place to look. BabyChampagne has definitely won me over!

With that said, here are LMs and Credits:

LAST DAY for SHOETOPIA 2013 and LaRoo Shoes!

I apologize, Blogspot crashed on me and I lost ton posts, so I am reloading....

Next on my list are LaRoo Shoes. It has been awhile since I tried LaRoo shoes. I have no idea why, because they are really amazing! These all mesh shoes are beautifully made and have the best skin matching system yet! The match is beyond perfect, which really impressed me. LaRoo released three new styles for SHOETOPIA 2013, which were named after the Kardashian sisters (I found that amusing) - Kim, Khloe and Kourtney. Unfortunately, I accidentally screwed-up one of  Kourtney booties and did not make a backup copy (cringes). Sorry Kourtney! So, I only have two pairs to show you.

The first pair, are these gorgeous Khloe Pumps:

(LaRoo) Khloe Pumps for SHOETOPIA 2013

These pumps are so beautiful! I love the sueded leather and metal toe, which are adorned with tiny metal rivets. I need them in RL! The leather is available in 10 brilliant colors, which can be changed via HUD. The metal toe comes in a choice of 3 metals (gold, silver and black) and is also changed via HUD. I mentioned before that LaRoo created the best skin matching system to date (as least in my opinion). The system is called 'Easy Match' and has every skin creator you can imagine. All the skin lines and tones are up-to-date as well! They even have just recently released specialty tones! By recent, I mean like yesterday! 

Here are Laroo's Kim Pumps:

(LaRoo) Kim Pumps at SHOETOPIA 2013

The Kim Pumps are so cute and sassy. I really adore the T-strap and sheer lining. These shoes, like Khloe Pumps, are so wonderfully textured and rendered. Kim is available in 10 stunning colors and uses the 'Easy Match' system via HUD!
I can not begin to tell you just how impressed I am by LaRoo shoes. So, please demo these ASAP!

N-core and Last Day for Shoetopia

I apologize, Blogspot crashed on me and I lost ton posts, so I am reloading....

Wow! Claire Messenger of N-core went all out for SHOETOPIA 2013. She created three fabulous new mesh shoes. It is almost impossible to pick a favorite! Anyway, I will try to keep this a brief as possible, since I had to rewrite this post again. Blogspot crashed on me and did not savie this post. If you happen to be reading this post after SHOETOPIA has ended, the shoes will be available in N-core Mainstore.

The first set of shoes that I am gong to show you, are N-core's new DESIRE heels:

N-core DESIRE at SHOETOPIA 2013

These sexy strappy and studded heels are STUNNING! If you are familiar with N-core's shoes, then you know that you can change the color of the different parts of the shoe via their HUD - Shoe (16 color choices if you buy the fatpack), Soul (gold, black, bronze & red), Inner (gold, silver & black), Logo (gold, black, silver & red) and Metals (gold & silver). 
N-core also uses a 'Click and Match' skin matching system via HUD. By clicking the HUD, you access a huge a database with the skin tones from most of the skin designers on the grid. You just click the button with your favorite skin's tone and voila! Your feet match your skin! Due to different lighting, you may have to slightly tweak the color, which takes a second. This goes for all skin matching systems.

The second pair of shoes from N-core, are their GLANCE booties:

N-core GLANCE

I think the GLANCE boots are my favorite out of the three! I love the yummy colors and textures. Claire makes some of of the most beautiful shoes on the grid. GLANCE comes in 15 colors and 5 dual tones (which are my personal fav). The parts are also fully customization via HUD - Shoe (20 color choices if you buy the fatpack), Soul (gold, black, bronze & red), Logo (gold, black, silver & red) and Metals (gold & silver) - and use the 'Click and Match' skin matching system. 

Last and certainly not least, are the VERTIGO heels:

N-core VERTIGO at SHOETOPIA 2013

VERTIGO is the perfect name for these super high platform stilettos! Talk about towering heights! How can you not love them? As I have mentioned before, the parts of the shoes are fully customization via HUD - Shoe (20 color choices if you buy the fatpack), Soul (gold, black, bronze & red), Logo (gold, black, silver & red), Inner (gold, silver & black) and Metals (gold & silver) - and use the 'Click and Match' skin matching system.

JUST DESIGN's My Feet at SHOETOPIA

I apologize, Blogspot crashed on me and I lost ton posts, so I am reloading....
JUST DESIGN is the latest brand to bring us mesh bare feet! Davidfre Resident worked hard to create these beautiful and versatile mesh feet in time for SHOETOPIA 2013.

JD - Feet Flat FULL & EVO for SHOETOPIA @2013
*left to right (Flat Feet Full Bare, Flat Feet EVO - Sock 1 and Flat Feet EVO - Sock 2)

He created Flat Feet and a Tip Toe version too! Both are made of rigged mesh and come in 5 standard sizes (xxs, xs, s, m, and l). You can see all the care that he put into these feet, by their extensive detailing and wonderful textures.

JD - Feet Tip Toe FULL & EVO at SHOETOPIA 2013
*left to right (Tip Toe Full Bare, Tip Toe EVO - Sock 2 and Tip Toe EVO - High Sock)

What makes these feet extra special, is the system that David created for them. It allows for tons of wear options. When you buy his feet, Flat or Tip Toe, you will receive two sets - FULL and EVO - and a coordinating HUD for each of them. Confused? Well, here is how it works:

  • FULL: The Full Feet have a blending zone around the ankle to remove any seams and are ideal if you want to have perfect bare legs.
  • EVO: The EVO Feet have a neat cut without any blending zone, because they give you an option for wearing tights, socks or stockings. The EVO HUD includes: 2 sock options, tights (high socks) and stockings. There are 7 different fabric colors on the HUD for the socks and 5 colors for the stockings. There are also several tattoo layers for the stockings as well. David will be creating more options and designs for the tights/socks/stockings for future releases. 
  • See the above images for examples *
Skin matching is also a breeze with these feet! David created a PefectSkin skin tone matching system. By clicking his HUD, you access a huge a database with the skin tones from most of the skin designers on the grid. You just click the button with your favorite skin's tone and voila! Your feet match your skin! Due to different lighting, you may have to slightly tweak the color, which takes a second. This goes for all skin matching systems.

Please do yourself and favor and check these out! If you miss SHOETOPIA, they will be available in the JUST DESIGN mainstore. 

Btw, one of my favorite jewelry designers, Caelan Hancroft, created these gorgeous Bali Anklet's for the SHOETOPIA Gachas:

JD - Feet Tip Toe FULL - Cae Bal Anklet Rose Quartz - Gacha at Shoetopia

These anklet's were made to be worn with the Gos bare feet, but with slight modding, they will work with just about any feet. I am wearing the anklet with the JUST DESIGN Tip Toe Feet and it looks great! Make sure you try your luck. All the stones are brilliant, so there is no way to lose!

More SLINK at SHOETOPIA 2013

As promised, I will devote this next section to all the fabulous Slink SHOETOPIA event exclusives. It is so hard to pick a favorite, since each shoe/boot is so exquisitely rendered. Please keep in mind, that all of the shoes I am about to show you, must be worn with Slink's 'AvEnhance Feet High'. For more info regarding the 'AvEnhance Feet High', please refer to my previous post here: Slink at SHOETOPIA 2013
I guess I will starts with Siddean's Mesh Demi Boots!

Slink Demi Boots at SHOETOPIA 2013

I absolutely adore this suede boots! They are so sexy! I love the crisscross shape going up the calf, the flash of skin around the ankle and around the inner arch of the foot. These boots also have two wear options. You can wear them with the pointy metal toe cap or open toed. There is a HUD that will let you switch between the too. Also, as previously mentioned, these boots were created to be worn with Slink's 'AvEnhance Feet High'. The Slink Demi Boots are available in 6 brilliant colors (black, chocolate, tan, grey, white and red). The blush tone (which is the first boot in the above pic), is an event exclusive (I am almost positive) with proceeds going to Souls4Shoes

Slink Hera Wrap Heels for SHOETOPIA 2013

These Hera Wrap Shoes are AMAZING! The wrap around was so artfully rendered, making for one beautiful heel. Once again, these are also to be worn with Slink's 'AvEnhance Feet High'. Hera comes in 6 wonderful colors too (black, red, silver, gold, bronze and blue).

Slink Priscilla Plateau Heels for SHOETOPIA 2013

Last, but not least, are these awesome Priscilla Plateau Heels. I tend to gravitate toward shoes with a bit a platform heel, which makes these another ideal shoe for me. I am also quite keen on the peep toes and ankle straps. These are definitely statement shoes that every girl should have. Well, to be honest, you should have all the shoes I just mentioned. LOL. Once again, with the risk repeating myself, the Priscilla Plateau Heels are to be worn with Slink's 'AvEnhance Feet High'.They also come in a choice of 6 colors (black, chocolate, teal, red, ruby and white).

So, with that said, please make sure get to SHOETOPIA 2013 before it is over. These new Slink shoes are a definite must see and DEMO. Siddean Munro did such an amazing job. Please buy lots of shoes and help a great a cause (Souls4Shoes) as you shop! Here are your LMs and credits:

Slink at SHOETOPIA 2013!

I have been blogging for over 24 hours straight now, so please forgive me if am not making sense or forget to mention something. Please feel free to IM me inworld, if you have any further questions.
Ok! As most of you know, I am in love with  Slink's mesh feet an their Avatar Enhancement System. Not only does it makes skin matching a breeze with perfect tones, but so many beautiful shoes have been created to be worn with them. Suffice it say, I was thrilled to be able to blog, Siddean Munro's latest 'Slink AvEnhance Feet High'.

Slink AvEnhance Feet High at SHOETOPIA 2013

Slink's avEnhnace Feet High are made of rigged mesh and come in following sizes: XXS, XS, S, M, and L. This new Avatar Enhanced Feet has more easy to use options then ever! If for some reason reason your favorite skin maker doesn't make appliers, Siddean provided a list of the color codes that match the skin, which that you can enter in to her new 'OmniHUD V5'.
- You can find the color codes HERE: http://slinkstyle.com/appliers_non-applier-matches/
- Even if you can not find the correct color code, her new OmniHUD V5, is an easy to use, step by step HUD, which will ensure a perfect skin match. Please watch this video tutorial, which shows how it works: http://youtu.be/moOdWd5Co9s
- There is also a blog tutorial as well here: http://slinkstyle.com/omnihud-v5/
-And if that is not enough or for some reason you can't find you appliers, Siddean also provided a list of designers who create appliers and their color codes HERE: http://slinkstyle.com/appliers_non-applier-matches/

Siddean also included TONS of ankle blender tattoos in tones of red, yellow and gray.
It is quite apparent that Siddean put a lot of time and effort perfecting her system, which is a dream.These feet are glitch proof! She thought of literally everything, I could need to perfect my feet look! She also a provides a 'Slink AvEnhance Utilities - Feet HUD'. This allows you to switch between bare feet, stocking/ sock appliers and even tattoo appliers.

In the next post, I will show you the the latest shoes Siddean created for SHOETOPIA 2013, which can be worn with the 'Slink AvEnhance Feet High'!

Countdown To End of SHOETOPIA 2013!

I am sooooo sad that SHOPETOPIA 2013 is finally coming to close on the 30th. I also don't think I will be able to blog all the shoes that I wanted to before the event over. There were just too many fabulous creations and I am ridiculously slow! I will keep posting them in upcoming posts, since most of these items will be available in the designer's mainstores,after this event over.I HAVE to keep this post as quick as possible, since I am running out of time!
The uber talented Bax Coen, as well as boot guru, has been known across the Grid for her super sexy boots and glamorous shoes. Since I am a serious a boot lover, I went nuts over Bax's  Regency Boots. These gorgeous patent lather thigh high boots are to DIE FOR!

BAX Regency Boots Black Patent Leather STANDARD for Shoetopie & Baiastice_Orly - Black for The Attic v3

  BAX Regency Boots come in 3 sizes that include a Collision Bone Deformer, which fits the boot to your shape within certain limits. Here are the sizes:

- STANDARD (for all small and average shapes, including all that conform to one of the Standard Size
- PLUS (for bigger shapes)
- BBW (for Big Beautiful Women)

These boots also come with a ton of settings and wear options via script. Some of these settings change the look of the color of the heel, as well as the zipper.

BAX Regency Boots at Shoetopia 2013

BAX Regency Boots that are available at SHOETOPIA in 6 mouth watering colors (4 of the colors are shown in the above pics), which include 2 solid colors and 4 beautiful fades: Pink, Black, Black-Mint, Black-White, Black-Blue and Black-Red.
Please do your self a favor and demo these ASAP, they are just two gorgeous for words and fit perfectly! Bax Coen,as always, out did herself again!
The rest of my post, includes new releases that are from other designer event exclusives, which I need to mention too!
This stunning and sensual Orly Lingerie in black silk, is from the talented Sissy Pessoa of Baiastice. This perfectly rendered mesh lingerie is an Attic exclusive this week! This set comes in every color imaginable, Plus, you have to different choices for the top. You can wear a more demure solid silk top or (if you are feeling more daring) there is a racey transparent top option too. So, hurry-up and get to The Attic before it ends!

-Belleza- Tara Arcade 1 RARE & Clawtooth -  Gun Street Girl - Girl Next Door  for Nov C88v3

Shyla Diggs of -Belleza-, just release a preview of her upcoming gacha skins for The Arcade Event! It is a new skin line, called 'Tara'. She is soooooo lovely! I can't get over all the hard work Shyla managed to do, in order to bring us such a beautiful face and make-ups. Not to mention a perfectly rendered body. However, The Arcade will not be opening until the 1st of December, so you will have to wait just a little longer to try your luck at this amazing skin.
OMG! Bubbles Clawtooth did it again with yet another incredible hairstyle for the November cycle of Collabor88 .This style is 'Gun Street Girl' and has long and flirty layers. This is yet another MUST have, so demo your heart out.
I apologize if I missed anything, I wanted to talk about everything that is seen in this post, but I am so short of time! I promise to make it up to anyone I miss!
Btw, the antiquated Cobblers Room items, are a joint release from the talented Isla Gealach of Cheeky Pea and the equally talented Wavie Haller of Valiant & Co. The chair, foot measure, shoe lasts, heel plates, foot measure and anvil, are all SHOETOPIA gacha items!

Way Too Slow!

I think the slowest blogger of the year award goes to me! Well at least for the last few months. RL has been so crazy that I barely have time to get to get to my laptop. My most recent blogging pattern has been this: log, wait for massive inventory load, search for outfit, find pose, choose WL, snap pic and then fall asleep on my keyboard. I log in the next day and it goes like it: log, wait for even more massive inventory load, hold the first person who IMs me hostage via talking too much, find a pose, find saved WL, snap pic, open PS and fall sleep while editing. Then if all goes right, maybe I can write a post and upload my images to Flickr without a problem the next day. Anyway, I will stop complaining.
Since Thanksgiving is here, I just want to thank all the people who have put up with me. I know I can be a major pain in the ass, who talks way too much and takes forever to post. I think being a friend of mine should guarantee sainthood. LOL. 
 Now, I am running late as usual, so I will try to make the rest of this post brief. I have some amazing Collabor88 and Shoetopia 2013 exclusives to show you!

LaGyo_Misaku Set for C88 & Birdy Peaches -  Peaches & Cream

First, this current round of Collabor88 is freaking AMAZING! When I found out the theme was going to be Industrial and in  of gunmetal grey, copper orange, dark browns and shades of tan, I really was no quite sure what to expect. Let's face it, the last few rounds of Collabor88 have been incredible, so how much better can it get? Well, the Collabor88 designers have managed to outdo themselves again with the most fabulous event exclusives! One of my all time favorite Collabor88 pieces, is this month's Misaku Chest Piece from Gyorgyna Larnia of LaGyo. It is to die for! You can really see all the time and care she put into making it.The mesh detailing and textures are so lovely! Plus, it comes with the most gorgeous matching leather bangles and a headpiece too. Btw, the head piece and chest piece are both color change via HUD, which allows endless wear options!

Nov C88 ISON - leather shape corset & side ruffle skirt and LaGyo_Misaku Set

Harry Hyx of ISON is another HUGE favorite of mine for both this month's Collabor88 and Shoetopia! He created this stunning bronze 'Leather Shape Corset' and black 'Side Ruffle Skirt'. I knew Harry would pull off the industrial theme with perfection, given his consistent use of both structured and minimalist designs. His looks are always sexy and feminine without going overboard. 
And his shoes! 
Side note: OMG! I am going to very busy the next few days, while attempting to finish blogging all these wonderful creations from Shoetopia 2013. This event is shoe lovers dream come true. Sophia Harlow (I almost wrote "Shoephia"... I know stupid) and Anessa Stine, as well as their hard working team, did a phenomenal job setting up my latest favorite event. For more info on Shoetopia, please go here: http://slshoetopia.blogspot.com/2013/06/shoetopia-2013.html

ISON for Shoetopia 2013

Harry created three wonderful SHOETOPIA executives. If you look at the above picture (from left to right), I will briefly give you some details regarding Harry Hyx's shoes. It is obvious that all 3 pairs they are all stunning and beautifully rendered, so I don't have to tell you that (even though I just did :p). The first pair of shoes from ISON, are the Metal Plate Booties. The name pretty much says it all. They are a pair of gorgeous leather leather ankle boots with a metal toe plate. They are available in 9 yummy colors too (eggplant, black, brown, white, gray, navy, sand, teal, and tan). The second and middle pair, are rightly called, Pointy Strap Heels. They are a super strappy, sexy and pointy pair of heels that were created to be worn with the Slink mesh feet (medium height). I seriously love shoes that are made to be worn with Slink's mesh feet. Slink's new avatar enhancement system, makes skin matching easy and perfect (although the new HUDs , which house all the different skin creator's skin tones in their database, are awesome too)! So that in itself makes these shoes fabulous, not to mention their exquisite design. Speaking of Slink, stay tuned for an upcoming post with their Shoetopia exclusives too! These heels are available in 8 different colors (black, brown, white, cobalt, gray, tan, sand and red). The third and last pair shoes, aka the Two Tone Wedge, are probably my favorite out of the three. I love the mix of the suede and leather. These were also created to be worn with Slink's mesh feet (medium height). These shoes come in a choice of 6 colors (black, brown, tan, sand, white and gray). So do yourself a favor and get your butt over SHOETOPIA before it ends on the 30th!. 
 I know this post is running long, but I have to mention and skin and hair that I am wearing in the first 2 pictures. The skin is a Chapter Four exclusive (or was..I think I got the dates screwed-up). If it is over, sincerely apologize about this and hope that it will be available in the mainstore. The skin is called Imogen was created by Nina Helix of Birdy Skins (Alchemy Skins too) and is so lovely. I think I am going to have to declare Nina as one of my top 4 skin creators. I had 3 top favorite skin designers, but now it is about 4 or 5. I can't really declare an absolute favorite skin, because I am a Libra with a Leo Moon and have a really hard time making decisions. Plus, I love different skins for different reasons. As I have mentioned in previous posts, I adore the hand drawn feel to Nina's skins. The slight imperfections, which make it a bit asymmetrical (not unlike our real life faces) give the skin a very unique and beautiful look. Anyway, if you have not tried Birdy Skins, you really should ASAP. 
Last, but definitely NOT least... The Hair! Kavar Cleanslate of Exile has been releasing so many great styles lately. I am in love with this latest style called, Run To You. Not only is this style gorgeous, but it comes more colors now! I know I mentioned this in a previous post, but each of  Exile's color HUDs are now house even more shade options. Kavar, as always, did an outstanding and thoughtful job creating even more perfect colors and styles to add his (as well my own) collection. Yay!
So, with that said, DEMO, DEMO, DEMO and BUY! Here are your LMs and Credits:

Boheme

SHOETOPIA is more more than half way over now, so I better pick-up my speed. LOL! So here is one of the sponsors of SHOETOPIA, Davidfre Resident of Just Design. He created these amazing Boheme thigh high boots! One of the major high points of these boots are all the options that they come with. Each part of these boots are completely texture change via HUD. Here are just a few of the areas that you can change the color/texture of: the front of the boot, the back of the boot, the heel, the platform, the sole and even the metals.
Just Design - Boheme for SHOETOPIA 2013

There is even a sock option. If you notice in the above pic, you can see the top of a sock above the shoe, which is also color change. You can choose a whole sock options, so the bare part of the shoe is now covered by a color changeable sock. This is definitely nice for the colder months ahead.


I really like the metal clasp detailing on the back of the boot, as well as the different suede and leather textures. So, what are you waiting for? Make sure you get down to SHOPETOPIA and try these on ASAP! Just Design also came out with a new line of mesh bare feet, which I will show you soon and is also available at SHOETOPIA.
Oh! Btw, all the decor in this post can be found at this month's Collabor88.The theme is industrial and all the items are incredible. All the designers really have outdone themselves, so this is one cycle you MUST see. So with that said, here are your LMs:

Glam Affair for Shoetopia 2013

SHOETOPIA is HERE! It is literally Shoe Heaven! Not only does the build look heavenly, but all those wonderful shoes.... Who could ask for more? There are so many new shoe designers, besides the shoe creators we all know and love. Read on, for more details about one of the most talked about break-out designers in regard to mesh feet!

--Glam Affair - Vanity Feet - Ballerina for Shoetopia & Overhigh - Be Dress - Pink

The designers over at -Glam Affair- and ~Tableau Vivant~ have been creating (with perfection) almost everything that your avatar could ever need or want. Some of these things include: Skins (obviously), Appliers (Lolas, Slink Hands, Slink Feet & Phat Azz), Clothes, Shoes, Make-ups, Mesh Liners and Lashes, Hair (over at ~Tableau Vivant~) and Poses/Sets (over at ~Tableau Vivant~). Now they have finally released mesh feet! The mesh feet are part of their new 'Vanity Line'M4ri1yn Magic is the talented creator behind the new 'Vanity Line', which is making it's debut over at SHOETOPIA. The first installation of the long awaited 'Vanity Line' are these fabulous 'Ballerina' feet.They are mesh feet wrapped in a delicate bands and ribbons.

--Glam Affair - Vanity Feet - Ballerina for Shoetopia & Overhigh - Be Dress - Pink - 2

M4ri1yn also created an easy to use to HUD, especially if you wear -Glam Affair- skins. Here is the info in regard to how it works:  
The hud features two sides:
-On the main side you'll find seven presets (that match Glam Affair tones), ten natural toe nails presets and the bands colors, textile and vinyl. You can hide the ends of the ribbon/band by clicking 'ends off'. To make them visible again just select a color (in the packs version) or the 'ends on' button for single packs.
-The back side has the color picker for both skins and nails, to adjust the tones and the nail natural/polish presets as needed.
There is slso a RGB button for specific tints provided; you can always switch back to white by clicking the reset button.

As mentioned previously, The 'Ballerina' line comes with a choice of two fabrics for the ribbon. You can choose from vinyl or textile fabric. You can also buy the fatpack, which includes both fabrics and a ton of gorgeous colors for the band/ribbon. 
I am really excited about this new line of mesh feet. There is also a male version of the 'Ballerina' feet that can be purchased at SHOETOPIA right now. I can't wait to see what M4ri1yn comes up with next!
I am in LOVE with this relatively new 'BE' dress from Marry Lemur of Overhigh. I adore the fitted bodice and skirt that has beautiful diaphanous skirt that flows on top. It definitely has a ballerina-esque feel to it. 
The skin was easy to choose for this post. I chose to wear aida Ewing's (of -Glam Affair- ) latest release for Collabor88. It is part of her latest 'Elvi' skin line, which is primarily made for younger avatars (ie, teens and children). It still can be worn by older avatars and look just as phenomenal. There are 12 make-ups available (including a 'Bare' skin option) in the America skin tone at Collabor88.This is definitely one opportunity you do not want to miss! Be sure to demo it ASAP!
To top of my look, I chose one of Truth Hawks latest hair releases, called 'Faye'. 'Faye' is so lovely and is definitely the perfect updo!
Just so you know, all the poses were made by the uber talented LouLou Teichmann of ~Tableau Vivant~. She is also an amazing artist and blogger; not to mention my SL wifey and BFF.
So with that said, SHOP and DEMO! Here are your LMs and Credits:
