#73 Oslo Up in Lights

Recently I had the privilege walking for Marquesse in the Let’s Summer Fashion Show.

This amazingly customizable outfit OSLO has 2 parts – the coat & shorts and the boots. The boot HUD has 5 colors to change boot, sole and laces. The coat and shorts HUD has 5 colors PLUS a color picker  – so the coat and shorts can be whatever combination you can dream up.

I chose to keep the boots and coat white and shade the shorts to pick up the pink in this amazing OLD Dragonfly Hair by Boudoir from the 2012 Crazy Hair Hunt.

– If anyone ever reads this who has a dream to organize something that will be remembered by the participants FOREVER – please please organise another CRAZY HAIR HUNT

Two things you can never have enough of – good friends and good shoes.

One of Kay Weston’s exclusive items for THE GARAGE FAIR 2016  is this Show Me The Shoes – pose chair.

#57 Remember the time…

“More we remember more is chance to know who we are….”
― Rati Tsiteladz

I remember the time I took a trip to visit the houses of my past. I knew that my Aunt Isabel and Uncle Ike (they were our great-aunt and great uncle but we always called them that,) were no longer there – and I was nervous about knocking on the door and saying that I had come to visit the past. I think my love of classic cars, vintage anything and ginger steamed pudding can be traced back to them.

My find is a dress by Marquess called Gia, which has matching sandals, and both items have a 6 color HUD. You can find them at a monthly event called Sequin Event – where the creators have an exclusive event item each month.

My Cadillac is from Image Essentials – and comes with a range of poses, set up in the Image Essential sim.

I wore a sweet summer dress by Marquess called Gia, which has matching sandals that fit beautifully and have great details. You can find them at a monthly event called Sequin Event – where the creators have an exclusive event item each month.

#53 Stayin Alive

STAYIN ALIVE  was one of five songs the Bee Gees wrote specifically for Saturday Night Fever. Like the film, the song is about much more than dancing and having a good time. It deals with struggle and aspiration; making your way in the world even after you’ve been kicked around

Disco night – theme events are a lot of fun in any life – and sometimes you come across an outfit that is versatile enough to be worn in several settings. This Jumpsuit from Ghee was for sale at the Fashion For Change event and is now available in the Ghee main store.

#43 Poised …

Poised to leave…

I just found out that she is closing the Poised shop TODAY!!! so there are just 4 hours left … no 3.

Such great deals- 24 shirt textures  and 6 skinny jeans ones! Here are just 3 combos – the Princess pink top with the purple stripe jeans, the Art black top with the Teal tartan jeans and the Love ocean top with the Street jeans.

I tried the method using the Firestorm camera lock  from Xantheannes’s tutorial – great fun to get 3 of me in the one setting.

#42 Fascinating work

I like work: it fascinates me. I can sit and look at it for hours.

Jerome K. Jerome

What use is a business suit in Second Life? I pondered this as I tried on this KITJA suit that I had walked past a few times at Kustom 9.

“Mem, you look just like a teacher!” I laughed, peered at myself through my teacher specs, …and, I bought the suit. So did my friends. I must ask them why they need a suit in SL.

The cleanly designed suit fits beautifully, has very nice detailing and there are several color options for skirt and jacket and a HUD for the shirt (black, white or grey).

The immensely satisfying details that make the outfit feel great:

Pure of Heart Dolphin Pendant (worn as a brooch) from Chop Zuey, Belle Rouselle donates 100% of the funds raised from the Pure at Heart Set to the World Wildlife Fund. (See the Lua Secret blog where she explains it beautifully.)

Steampunk heels are from Eudora3D they come with a HUD giving options for the main shoe, trim, sole, & metal.

#33 Angelina milk

How to Get Milky White Skin: Natural Skin Whitening Tips

#1, Avoid the Sun

It means we should avoid direct sun light. To reduce the sun light effect on skin, we must wear sunscreen cream with SPF 40 or even higher.

#2. Cover Up

We must wear more clothes and expose less skin. This should prevent the sun burn. In addition to it, we should add sunscreen under our makeup foundation, even if it has the sunscreen function, to maximize protection for our face skin.

 

..or you could wear this great pale skin (even lighter than my regular pale) from October’s 4seasons. I love the way she has done the shading. It is an interesting challenge to dress a new skin tone- and I love the way this Sakura hair with bears and flowers – a random gatcha prize from TRUTH and the {Modern Kimono} Set 3, by Tyr Synister for C88 look so fantastic together. My makeup is from October’s new kinetic lipstick set and her eclectic eyeshadow set. The pose is from Image Essentials – Graceful Elegance set.

I entered this closeup into October’s  ‘natural beauty’ contest – some of us really are milky pale. What do you think?
