This was a fun outfit for me to blog, but a tough one at the same time. I know that it was inspired by something on the darker side for an event with a dark theme, but I just don’t do dark real well unless it’s Halloween, and even then it doesn’t feel comfortable. And one thing I want to do when I really love an outfit is feel good about what I’m doing with it. So although I considered the whole zombie hunting thing, I just couldn’t get it to a level that feel acceptable to my harshest critic (me). So although I still went dark for me, it certainly is no horror show… but then again, this is a gorgeous leather outfit suitable for all sorts of moods, so maybe where I ended up is where I needed to be after all. Either way, I had fun exploring a few dark corners looking for the right shot… I highly recommend exploring outside your normal venues… followed up by some shopping therapy!!!! Happy shopping!
- Head, Eyes, Skin, Shape, Makeup: Tonic – Tempest, a preview of the newest bento head from Tonic, which will debut as an EXCLUSIVE at the Skin Fair on March 13th. I’m not going to go into a lot of details here, because I did a closeup on Saturday’s blog. You can see it HERE, & pick up a free demo at the main store. I WILL say that Tempest is beautifully amazing, & IMHO is absolutely the best head yet by Tonic.
- Outfit: Allure Couture – Lisha Leather Outfit. Inspired by Selene, the vampire in “Underworld” who kills Lycans, Lisha is a bit darker than most of Allure’s designs, but then the theme for the event is “darkness.” Darkness is certainly done in style with a leather outfit that can be interpreted in lots of ways, depending on your mood & how you style it. The details are fabulous — the “tooling” on the jacket, then the lace & the darker contrast on the cuff of the shoes, the hip belt with a big open ring right on the butt cheek? Just awesome! Lisha is a complete outfit of jacket, pants, & boots, which comes in 6 separate color/texture choices or as a 10 option Fatpack. If all you crave are the boots, they are available as a separate fatpack. All textures are ORIGINAL. The outfit is sized for Tonic, Slink H/P, Belleza F/I/V, & Maitreya. EXCLUSIVE new release for the 7Event, March 5th – 20th. A We Love to Blog Designer.
