Inspiration even years later can be enjoyable. The Haley hair by Elikatira did it for me this time! It is available to purchase at the 2016 Hair Fair.</div>

<b><span style="font-size: large;">YUMMY!</span></b> </div>
<b><br /></b>
<b>Mesh bodies</b> seem to be the new thing and luckily for me I'm able to get some trials at it from <b>Belleza</b>. <b>Tricky </b>has been working on this for months and I have to give him kudos for the amount of hours he puts into his work. I have been eagerly awaiting giving it a go since he first told me about this months and months ago! <br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/zoedemar/15252911892" title="yummy by Zoe Demar, on Flickr"><img alt="yummy" height="800" src="https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5556/15252911892_0c21ed155e_c.jpg" width="495" /></a><br />
<br />
Here's my low-down:<br />
<br />
I have to say that straight out of the box I'm happy thus far. I will be honest in saying I haven't been able to give a full out dedicated review of this but from an out of the box perspective I found the HUD easy to use with a lot of options I didn't expect. <br />
<br />
Tricky did a great job of giving a LOT of options with hand gestures to pointed and flat feet to the details such as nail length and color options. It is fun to see a full body done in 3-D vs 2-D. I have an actual belly button indentation!! <br />
<br />
I will say one of the more humorous things was playing with the cleavage option. I haven't yet put that to use with clothing but it did give me a bit of a chuckle because in order to achieve cleavage like SL's in RL there is some definite push-ups that he has mimicked here - give your mind a moment to visualize then give it a try when it is released! <br />
<br />
I will say that my avatar is rather small chested and I did increase the boob size a bit along with my feet and hands to get into the mesh properly and to where I wanted to be. But that's going to be standard with any mesh body from the sounds of it. No more needing size 0 feet! I think the one thing that I will have to try is mesh shoes from other designers and how that will play with this body. <br />
<br />
But as I said in my Flickr comments - It is sooo nice to just take a picture without spending hours recreating curves that would naturally be there if you were to take a photo of an actual person. Mind you, we will still continue to contort our avatars into physically impossible poses for the sake of creativity but it is nice to not HAVE to when doing a simple pose! Yay for mesh bodies! <br />
<br />
Thank you SL for allowing us to be able to have creators such as the talented <b>Mr. Tricky of Belleza</b> create them for us to adore our avatars more lovingly with!Zoe Demarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05069248086718301295noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7376505351733206323.post-63725065319813073312013-05-01T19:40:00.001-04:002013-05-01T19:40:04.956-04:00A Little Bit of Style by Zoe Demar - Sunshine<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/zoedemar/8699492483/" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" title="05-01-13-May-Day by Zoe Demar, on Flickr"><img alt="05-01-13-May-Day" height="512" src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8400/8699492483_97ec246f2c_o.jpg" width="768" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Giving out some sunshine on this May Day! Lots of newness at the Fameshed this month including the latest dress from Zaara and Hair by Exile. Also a sneakpeak of Belleza's Best Buy for the first week of May!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The Chaitra Chiffon dress comes in an array of colors and prints too! I love the little frills in the sleeves with a bit of soft transparency. It is a must have for my inventory! I went with yellow to celebrate the arrival of spring and upcoming summer sunny days. Keep the mesh coming, Zaara!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Exile has been busy! I had started to wonder when he was going to release and now I know why! The spectacular HUD is going to make my inventory cry out for joy as it is already over-bulging with the amount of items I have collected over my past several years in SL. THANK YOU EXILE!! I also adore this Set Fire to the Rain hairstyle. Give me the body baby!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Skin is always a hot commodity and I got first dips on showing of Belleza's Best Buy that will be released soon!!! It is Mya in Medium BBB2. It is the most delicate of the three options that Belleza will be offering. Mya certainly gives my avatar a unique look compared to a lot of skins out there and I'm always happy to show it off.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
And my outfit wouldn't be complete without some sexy wedges by GOS. I adore the detail of the texture on the toe portion of the Lolita Espardrilles wedges and the sexy ribbon that will leave a lasting impression from behind. Keep it coming Mr. Gospel - don't let the shoe whores of the universe wait for too long for your next piece of perfection.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The rest is my standards to Del May Poses, Insufferable Dastard Eyes, and Silhouette Lashes</div>

<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/zoedemar/8623731486/" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" title="Fantasy by Zoe Demar, on Flickr"><img alt="Fantasy" height="512" src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8392/8623731486_38b8e1d092_o.jpg" width="768" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I've been waiting for League to release this corset/skirt combo into her store since I missed the fair and my wish came true! I decided that this outfit made me think of Disney's Beauty and the Beast...my favorite Disney flick from my childhood. I consider this picture, "Belle Gone Wild!"</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
It was hard to choose which color combination to choose - there are sooo many options!! And then there is a HUD included with the corset which allows for 4 spike metal options or to turn them off. AND it even allows for different texture line options and colors as well as two sleeve options. Way to go, League - always providing exceptional ..everything!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I'm not really one for doing the cleavage enhancement but corsets definitely don't bring modesty so I felt it was appropriate! I'm wearing Pink Fuel's Alex with the Enhancer 3 in Latte. I'm going for the natural look to fit the scene a bit.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I went for looooong hair by LeLutka. I have a hard time in RL or SL to do the split down the middle. I don't know why! But again, I decided to pull it out for this look and love how it turned out!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I'll let the rest of the look speak for itself as I repeatedly use the remaining items.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Enjoy!</div>

I feel like this look kind of represents the RL me a bit. I don't really feel about explaining it though so I guess you can say I'm a bit indifferent about it!<br />

<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/zoedemar/8560164913/" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" title="03-15-13-Purple by Zoe Demar, on Flickr"><img alt="03-15-13-Purple" height="512" src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8372/8560164913_f74075a270_o.jpg" width="768" /></a></div>
<br />
International Women's Day was celebrated last Friday (March 8th) so I thought that I would take the time to celebrate three women that I look up to in this look - <b>Tuli</b>, <b>Ely</b>, and <b>Del May</b>. <br />
<br />
<b>Tuli of Tuli </b>- for learning photoshop all on her own years ago and is happily back in Second Life creating once again! As shown with her latest skin release, Elyse. Tuli has been one of my staple skin designers that I love to go back to time and time again. Her Hope skin still is one of my all time faves to this day and one that I got a ton of compliments wearing. <br />
<br />
<b>Ely of Elymode </b>- a good friend that I won't ever forget to go to for advice when I need it not only in photoshop but in life. She has overcome a LOT in her real life - shown with the major roadtrip she took to overcome her own fears. She also continues to push her skills in 3D modeling. Warranted in her latest mesh dress release called Starlight. I've always admired her for her persistence in learning and being a perfectionist when it comes to textures. Her talent is limitless! I'm also jealous of her RL photography skills with sunsets...and SL ones too!<br />
<br />
<b>Del May of Del May</b> - continues to push the bounds of what angles can be - not only in her SL photography but in her unconventional <b>poses</b>. I don't know her personally...but tend to think you can get to know her in her pictures that awe me in her artistic style. Unique is the best word that I can use for this artist!<br />
<br />
<b>Let's not leave out the boys since it is now almost St. Patty's Day!</b><br />
<br />
<b>Truth of Truth </b>- who knew that you would have such a SL impact years ago when you first opened your shop. I still remember the controversy because you were just too good to be believed! It is amazing to see how much you've developed and striven for innovation in your creations. I am still holding onto my unused Novocaine gift cards...don't ask me why! I know you said you'd honor them but I guess I'm still a bit of a sentimental. I can't believe how one can be so determined to release multiple <b>hair </b>styles on a weekly basis! Thank you for making my SLHair Folder explode!<br />
<br />
<b>Hart of PXL </b>- when I did photography for you - for what doesn't seem as long ago as it is...I learned that you are a perfectionist and somebody that concentrates on even the most tiny detail! You've continued to triumph over controversy and pushed through not only with skins but your other innovations. I love these <b>teeth</b>! Minor to some but it is something that I know you spent quality time on.<br />
<br />
<b>And I hate to leave anyone out...</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Aula of Insufferable Dastard</b> - I can't say I know anything about you other than yes I love your <b>eyes</b>. They have the right balance of reflections, size, and color that I require to make my photos pop. Thank you for having so many options and I wish you success with your expansion into skins! <br />
<br />
<b>Cari of Silhouette (no longer open)</b> - you still run the feed that I visit the most often and had one of the best shape shops out there. I'm happy that I got these <b>lashes </b>because they're my standard go-to SL enhancements. It sucked when you closed up shop but I'm glad that you did what you needed to do. Your styling skills are impeccable and you were one of the models that I always admired from afar. <br />

Being sick and then having a significant other sick makes for not a lot of time to enjoy free time. Now that we're feeling better I thought I would aim for some spring even though outside it is a winter wonderland. Maybe if we think Spring...it will come! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The <b>Truth</b> hair (super cute/vintage look - makes me think Audrey), <b>Valentina E. Couture</b> dress (I don't know what could scream SPRING more), and Cae necklace (scripted for multiple color options) are all available at the <a href="http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Fresco/168/166/37" target="_blank"><b>fameshed </b></a>event going on now. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The new <b>Zoe skin is by Tuli</b> is a welcome treat as it is nice to see an old favorite come back from the world of real and back into virtual space creation!! I'm wearing the <b>petal tone in the sultry make-up</b> collection. Super excited I did decide to twist it up a bit with some blush and freckles from V<b>ive Nine</b>. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The rest is old hat favorites...eyes (<b>Insufferable Dastard</b>) and lashes (no longer available) along with a pose from my standard poser <b>Del May</b>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Mind you I did add shadows/highlights to this picture so make sure you try before you buy!!</div>

Hard to believe that I have been involved in SL for seven years! Looking through my SL inventory picstures and then through a bit of flickr to collect these images is pretty crazy!! Thinking about all the countless memories that I have had not only virtually, but outside of Second Life too! I have certainly changed a lot as well as SL...and I've been recording it all through pictures. It is the one thing I have consistently loved to do. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

Yes, I'm a <b>Belleza </b>fan. I think you have to be crazy not to be...but I won't judge you if you are like me and like to change skins like you change clothing...or hair..or...<br /><br />They are starting up a new event called, "<b>Belleza Best Buys</b>," where they will release exclusive skin(s) for only L$400 every first weekend of the month. It will only last for 3 days - so you will have to be timely if you want part of this deal.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
This weekend (Feb 1st-3rd) they have 3 women's make-up variations offered in 4 ladies' skin-tones I'm showing off the Ava in Tan, makeup choice 2. Men - you're not left out either - they have 2 men's skins up for sale too in 3 skin-tones!<br /><br />I'll let the text in the picture speak for the rest of the items I'm wearing. If you have questions, feel free to contact me in-world or via my flickr mail.<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br />I will mention that this is my toned down version of the picture. If you're old enough and have a flickr account you can check out my full pictures on my flickr account. I'm showing off the <b>Lush mesh breasts</b> with <b>Belleza's Lush Applier</b>. I have now tried out the <b>Tangos </b>and the <b>Lush </b>mesh breasts. I won't discount the <b>Tangos </b>for quality, but I personally prefer the <b>Lush </b>brand because it is less abrasive and easier to have a smaller boob, which I prefer for my own avatar.</div>

<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/zoedemar/8407476744/" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" title="Dazzle by Zoe Demar, on Flickr"><img alt="Dazzle" height="512" src="http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8048/8407476744_e044455c74_o.jpg" width="768" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Maybe a bit too bright of a background but I love the contrast to the pink and purple. Not going to say much but definitely inspired by <b>Zaara's new mesh Atiriya jewelry</b>. She dropped it on me today and all I can say is YUMMY - it comes in 6 stunning color sets (amythest - shown here, carnelian, lapis lazuli, aquamarine, onyx, and turquoise). <b>Note:</b> This has not yet been released to the public - so keep an eye out on<b> <a href="http://zaarakohime.blogspot.ca/" target="_blank">Zaara's blog</a></b>.</div>
<br />
I totally missed a ton of <b>Maitreya's </b>release but saw this new dress that was just put out called <b>Frenzy</b>. It was hard to pick just one color!! <b>Note:</b> I have added some shading to my picture so make sure to try out the demo first!!<br />
<br />
The only other really new thing to blog about is the hair I'm wearing by Iruco. I saw it on another fashion blog a few days/weeks ago and went to try it out. It is meant for men, but I love messy fro styles like this and had to have it.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I am also wearing the <b>SLink Mesh Hands</b> a must have item in SL, especially if you model or do photography in SL. I got the fatpack. I initially forgot to put in the creds on the picture because wearing them seems so natural to me! As with most sculpted/mesh feet, ears, hands...I do have a bit of a challenge matching the skin tone...it takes practice but I didn't post-edit this at all and feel like it matches pretty darn well!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Otherwise I'm wearing a <b>Belleza</b> skin in mocha again - but a different make-up...and the same <b>Insufferable Dastard</b> eyes that I wore in my previous post.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
It is hard to believe that this is my first official post of the new year!! I guess I've been busy! Which is true, but I really thought I would have blogged before now. But enough about that! <b>First, a warning. I have added a bit of detail post-editing - when it comes to shadows to this dress that don't naturally occur. Please try out a demo before purchasing - I don't want to hear any complaints to me or to Micha! </b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
If you haven't already heard, the <b>Truth District </b>is hosting a sale on their sim (<a href="http://truthdistrict.com/?p=782" target="_blank"><b>click here for details</b></a>). <b>MichaMi's</b> store has a great deal of 50% off!! I picked up items that I have been eyeing for a bit - including this <b>Lana Brocade Cocktail dress</b>! It is sooo nice to see mesh creativity with the contours of this stunning cocktail dress. The structure is very unique to SL and I'm happy to be showing it off for 2013. Note that this is not the only color/texture option available. Check out the store for more options.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Another store in<b> Truth District</b> on sale (<a href="http://truthdistrict.com/?p=782" target="_blank"><b>click here for details</b></a>) is a jewelry shop called, <b>Cae.</b> I'll admit that this was my first visit to the store and it is much easier to drop off some linden to try out something new when it is on sale. I'm very pleased to give<b> Cae's Flourish Necklace</b> a gander, especially with this elegant look.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
As far as skin is concerned, as you've most likely heard - <b>Belleza </b>has come out with their latest skin called, <b>Ava</b>. I'm showing off the <b>Ava Mocha skin</b> with a lip make-up option in Matte. I'm looking forward to trying out their other skin tones soon - probably in my next blog post! A bit of insider info...shhhh...for those of you with <b>tangos</b>, be on the lookout for <b>Belleza </b>skin appliers soon!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>Magika </b>released a new hair today called <b>Habit</b>. I had first checked out the <b>SL Marketplace</b> store, saw this hair, and snatched it up before it was announced! I'm never that on the ball! It is a sequel to one of her previous hairs called, <b>stumble</b>, that had a blindfold. You can't see it in the picture but it has a long loose twist that goes down the middle of the back. Check out the demo for more detail. The best thing about <b>Magika, </b>is that for being such great quality the price isn't extreme and she gives you all normal shades in 1 pack.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Eyes - I picked up another pair from <b>Insufferable Dastard's City Lights Eye Collection</b> to match the green in the dress. Still my favorite, so if you get tired of me mentioning them, too bad! I'm also wearing my old standard of lashes that are no longer on the grid.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The stellar <b>pose </b>is by my current standard for pose making, <b>Del May</b>. She has released some new singles as well as a new couple's pose if you haven't checked it out recently.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<br />
I had some fun with photoshop tonight and thought I would share. I was going to do a wedding dress type of scenario but decided to turn up the glam factor instead once I found this pose to use. Then I was going to crop it a bit, but found that I liked it too much as it was. I started to use another background then decided I liked the black more too! <br />
<br />

I noticed <b>LAQ </b>put out some newness which reminded me a bit of her going back to the "pre-glow" series of skins. What I didn't realize was what she was doing in detail until I went over to check it out this evening. I must say it really allows the new tattoo layer system to drastically allow us to be much more unique. Instead of just piling on different types of make-ups. Mallory is allowing us to also choose different noses, lips, eyes, etc. from across different skin bases. Instead of writing out a bunch, I'm going to show you. The picture above is showing off the Saga skin as is (plus eyelashes from <b>Maitreya</b>, Eyes from <b>Insufferable Dastard</b>, and hair from <b>LeLutka</b>). The picture below is the Saga skin but with the nose from <b>LAQ's </b>Essentials Elle as well as Elle's lips. Thus depending upon how somebody mixes up the options, they can get a completely different look - which is great! The biggest factor is to just match up the skintone skin to skin - I choose the 2.0 skintone. I will admit...buying two essential skin packs runs a bit pricy, but it was fun to mix and match to get a different look all together. On top of that, she has eye and lip makeup choices for 100L each, so you can still change up your look with make-up but to get the different noses, eyes, eyebrows, or natural lips - you would have to buy the essentials pack. Still I think it is great if she continues on this path as it will allow the consumer to go ultra-unique.</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I put this look together awhile ago now, but I love it due to its feeling of ease that it gives me. Very neutral and comfortable. It's really a mesh up of <b>erratic</b>, <b>league</b>, and <b>elikatira</b>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I have blogged <b>erratic's </b>top previously but love it so much in this shade that I decided to blog about it again. It makes me want to cuddle up with a cup of cocoa and a book. The great thing about it too is that it looks loose but not frumpy! And pairing it up with a sexy black leather pant really plays it up to look really trendy but relaxed. And of course I can't go wrong with anything that is similarly named to my name of Zoe!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I had a different hair picked out but then changed it when I saw <b>elikatira's Interrupt hair</b> - it certainly interrupted me! I love the long over the shoulder braid with the loose wisps framing the bangs. My hair does this all the time when I try to put it up. Those little loose strands brings a lot of character with it. I love it when hair designers do this.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The necklace, skin, and boots are all <b>League</b>. I would put <b>League </b>as one of the best texture makers on the grid. So talented with anything she touches..skin, jewelry..she does it all. I'm sure if she made furniture or houses or whatever...they would be great. I'm in awe constantly and always look forward to her releases. The texture and styling of these boots - they look sooo real and soft. It is easy to look at these and know how it would feel under a delicate touch. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In regards to the eyes...I really love the depth of the brown in <b>Exodi's Zbilija eyes</b> (no longer available). So when I go to put on other brown eyes, I always tend to go back to these. I used them but with some major editing, in another picture that I did here where I put a bit of RL me in the image by adding the freckles. <b>Note</b>, I'm also wearing the same skin but this time the hair is by Exile.</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I checked out the <b>Cinema </b>event finally this weekend. I had eyed<b> Zaara's Ritika mesh dress</b> from afar and found that my favorite item of the fair and thus decided to feature it in this blog post. It is located in the <b>Romance section of Cinema</b>. It is available currently in three shades. I went with <b>pink </b>shade. I love the details with the string on the shoulders with the little beads. So well crafted! Can't wait for more <b>Zaara </b>mesh!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I could have easily just left on the <b>vive9 </b>skin that I had been wearing but opted for something different. I decided that I hadn't ever blogged the <b>Bella skin by Redgrave</b> that I picked up ages ago. I wasn't really sure if I liked it as more of a photo skin or something I could wear around - especially since it is based on <b>Twilight's Bella</b>. But I decided to give it a go. I did have to adjust my shape slightly regarding the nose - otherwise it just looked too thin and I didn't want to change complete to actually become "<b>bella</b>" as the shape allows. I also stuck with the <b>gentle version of the lashes</b> that came with the pack.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
As far as hair, I wanted something that wouldn't overpower the dress straps and would kind of reflect that feeling of Bella from Twilight. <b>Burley's Julia hair</b> won out with this chunky loose braid.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I really felt after I had the pose picked out that I wanted some nails, I decided that I didn't want to just pull something out of my inventory and found this pack on the <b>SL Marketplace</b> by <b>Mandala</b>. I am happy with the nails but found that due to it being a unisex pack the HUD didn't come with a lot of nice soft pink selections - and I didn't want to have a longer nail on. I kinda like the short look right now vs some daggers on the ends of the fingers. So I choose a nude/pink with french tip feature. I felt like editing the color but decided to leave it alone.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The skin pack I got came with the eyes, but I didn't really like them 100% so I went to the <b>Insufferable Dastard</b> store and browsed the brown shades she has available. I honestly felt like a lot of the browns were too washed out until I spotted the <b>ultimate pack in brown</b>. I ended up going with the faded brown to give more of an unnatural sense to the persona I wanted to pull off. Especially calling this picture <b>Madness based off of Muses' new album - The 2nd Law</b>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The pose by <b>Del May</b> felt like the perfect awkward beauty that I wanted to bring to this picture. It's called, "<b>Just got up male</b>" - which totally works even if it is a male pose. I find that I can buy male or female and make it work. </div>

First all, Happy<b> Thanksgiving to my fellow Canadians</b>!! And now that it is getting more chilly outside, it's time to think about winter hopping to someplace warm..like Kokomo! I honestly haven't ever been to the South Pacific but I have a few family and friends that have. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
When <b>Maitreya</b> released this <b>Mignon dress</b> awhile back, all I could think of was some dark skinned beauty on the beaches somewhere tropical. I'm a pale gal in RL but always dreamed of being darker skinned. Thus in SL I can live that out a bit. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I'm also finally showing off one of the fade hair colors in this <b>Havana hair by</b> <b>Truth</b> as well as another one of <b>Pink Fuel's Kumi </b>skins in a stunning purple eye shadow. I kept the lips natural to keep the look laid back and beach worthy. Easy - Breezy - Covergirl, anyone?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This pose by <b>Del May</b> is called <b>Grown Up</b> - It is one of my all time favorite poses of all time because it really strikes a presence with all the right curves without trying too hard. I tend to use it often - I'm sure if you glance through my flickr pics you'll see it.</div>

Feeling a bit like a spy today, especially listening to the new bond song, Skyfall by Adele. I've also been a bit influenced by the black widow look of Scarlett Johansson from the movie Avengers...even if in reality the dress by Maitreya is definitely the influence of Audrey Hepburn hence the name. </div>

I love the fact that in my previous post I talk about how I'm no longer going to show shoes...I think that was the cue for Gospel of GOS to make some boots...because he did!! Unfortunately I do not have that much power to make that happen every time so that means we'll just have to be patient for the next release. I'm sure you'll be seeing these all over the blogs if you haven't already. My favorite of the two releases are the hunter ankle boots shown here in tan. They are available in 6 shades and you can also change the metal buckles to be silver or gold. I love all the impeccable detail in the textures so be sure to go give them a try as well as their calf length version which I'm sure I'll use in a future blog post.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I really didn't want to do the standard black and fell in love with the tan from the posts. I'm kinda going for an equestrian look but in a modern living twist. I had checked out a few top ideas but ended up going with the Not So Bad dress, Maud, in white and pairing it up with the optional Maud belt (sold separately).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I was already wearing the newest Truth hair, Swift, before I started putting together this look and definitely knew it would stay - it's a keeper! If you don't know I am a Taylor Swift fan, so this was easy. It has the whisps I adore and stunning thick bangs. I hope to show off some of the new fade styles Truth has released but I decided to stick with au natural, cocoa brown.</div>

To keep that equestrian feel, the look cried out for leggings, but again I didn't want to just go the typical black route and instead decided to bring out the violet Maitreya tights. Mind you I did photoshop this picture and blended the seams of the tights a bit.</div>

As for accessories, the Jackie O glasses by Maitreya was something I was already wearing and decided to stick with. Gold was the theme of the look so I paired it up with some onyx Zaara earrings and ring. Note the power of three...black sunglasses, black stones in the ring, and black stones in the earrings. Odd numbers are always better in design and also can be in fashion.</div>

As far as skin/make-up/teeth - partially because I was lazy and partially because I really like how it turned out in the previous post. I eliminated listing all the eye make-up/lashes/eyes to save some room in my listing because you can't really see them that well anyway.</div>

The pose is by TorridWear - which would be no longer available as she closed up shop (insert sad face here).</div>
