Almost Ethereal

Fashion For Life finishes today, but I really wanted to get this simply fantastic piece from Zibska out there. It is Zib's exclusive for the event, and if you don't get it today you will miss out entirely. The jewellery pieces alone make it a must have in my mind.

Wearing it with one of La Petite Morte's fantasy line of skins. These are lovely and well worth a look if you never have before. The bright pink of the Maev eye-shadow by Zibska available at the Skin Fair(which also ends today) contrasts strongly against the monochromatic grey skin. The nails are another shade in the very excellent Smelted Fades nails set by Plastik, also at the Skin Fair.

Spring Days

For the Northern Hemisphere it is early Spring, and the fashions of the season are just starting to emerge onto the grid. This eyecatching little number from Ghee speaks loudly of Spring with the contrasting white floral pattern sweeping across the bodice and down to the hip. It is another of the exclusives for Fashion For Life, and you had better hurry if you want to get it as it closes March 29th.

Another one you had better hurry for is this gorgeous pale skin called "Rose" from Mudskin. There is 10 shades of skin in both freckle and non-freckle versions, though all tend to be pale. The skin comes with eye-shadows (not shown), moles, and lipsticks, and there are appliers available for almost any mesh body/part. But as the Skin Fair closes on the 29th, you had better rush over. The eye-shadow shown is one by Zibska called Maia, also available at the Skin Fair.
The bracelets are both by Plastik. On my right forearm is a bracelet that is a new favourite called Bonedaddy, a quirky fun bracelet made of bones, set with gems. And on my left is Detora, also made of bone, and set with tiny chains, and a crystal. Both are available at The Secret Affair.

Finishing my look is this chain and gem necklace from Zibska. Both chains, and gems are colour changeable through the HUD. The hair is an older Tableau Vivant one that is perfect for Spring with it's built on hat.

At Home in my Boudoir

Got a date where you want to look smart, flirty, fresh but not too formal? Well look no further than this fabulously sexy, semi-sheer number from Ghee that is exclusive to Fashion For Life available only until March 29th. Versatile enough to wear in both Spring and Summer, you'll be turning heads everywhere in this wherever you go.

The white of the Ghee number looks absolutely stunning on this beautiful Della skin from Zoul Creations. Available at the Skin Fair, again only until March 29th, it is one not to missed. This skin comes in 10 skintones available, has all the major applier types, and there is also separate packs of lips, and eye-shadow that can be purchased.
Also at the Skin Fair and for only just 1L......yep you heard right, 1L for this pack of gorgeous SLINK nails from Plastik. But you'd better rush before March 29th to grab them.

The sandals I am wearing here are from Zibska, and are also perfectly suited to dressing up, or dressing boho, or even at the beach. As with most of her offerings they come with a colour change HUD with a great choice in colours.
My hair is by booN, and I'm not usually a fan of dread styles, but OMG I love this!  I think this would have to be the best dread style hair I have seen in SL to date (at least in my opinion).

The Fool

I have to admit this post has taken me almost 5 days to put together. I had such a clear vision of what look I wanted. But finding the pieces to make that look come about turned out to be an exercise in mostly frustration with not being able to find half the pieces I wanted. The same went with the photos. So all in all everything turned out quite different than what I had envisioned.

So, first up is the dress, eye make-up, and hat (used here as a prop) that are Zibska's offering for the "Create Your Own Tarot" event, which this month features the fool. Just love this dress, it's fun, and flirty. And will be easily matched in with many other items in your wardrobe for a lot of different looks. From the same event is the pose used here by Roquais. This is one of the prizes in the gacha that features 9 different poses, a "tarot" card, and the style card for that look.

The skin is another in the fabulous fantasy skinline Immortalia line at the Skin Fair by Plastik called Thana.  A very pale offering that is excellent for the vampire in you. As with the others, it comes with make-ups, eyes, and many brow options. There is also appliers for just about anything available as well (seperate)
The lipstick is also from the Skin Fair and is by Zoul Creations for their skin range "Gina"
These fabulously embroidered and detailed bracelets are by [sYs] and are available from SOU by Creation.jp.

Red Light Seductress

Took the title from the prop used, a fabulous new prop with poses by Exposeur available at Whore Couture Fair.

The skin is one of the skins on offer at The Skin Fair from Zoul Creations, called Della. And it is truly stunning! There is 10 skintones available. It comes with all the major applier types, and there is also separate packs of lips, and eyeshadow that can be purchased.

To set the mood, I chose the extremely provocative Brigitte set from Zibska, available at The Instruments. This set has a bra, undies, and dress. And like almost all of Zibska's offerings it has a colour-change HUD with 9 fabulous colours.

As there was really not much need for a lot of jewellery, I added just a fairly "simple" bracelet of gold bones, set with gold gems from Plastik, available at The Secret Affair. The bracelet comes in four styles in each pack. It is available in 3 metal shades. The nails take advantage of the new SLINK nail ability to set each nail a different polish with these two complimentary pattern sets from Nail Me!

Standing here waiting for you.....

Anyone that knows me in SL, knows I am a skin addict. I have more skins than I could ever wear even if I changed skin twice a day for 3 years. And that doesn't include my old skins.... So I am absolutely thrilled to be blogging Plastik skins from the Skin Fair!

Just a note if you intend to visit the Skin Fair, there is a VERY strict 50 script limit in place to try to limit lag and give everyone a fair shopping experience.

Plastik is one of those shops that while I don't shop there every day, or even every week, I have quite a collection over the years. If you have never been there, then you really should do yourself a shopping favour and pay a visit.
The skin/s (male and female on offer at the Fair) are fabulous. Called "Immortalia" they are perfect for many fantasy settings. In the pack you get a collection of eyes, make-ups, freckles, and a whole lot of brow options. They come in 20 shades, and there is appliers for almost any mesh body part add-on you can think of (bought separately).

This very sexy Adrianna lingerie seen here is new from Zibska, comes in 6 colours, and is for mesh bodies Maitreya, Bella, and TMP, as well as the standard SL body, and is available at her shop. The horns shown are available at We <3 Role-Play and come in 30 different shades with a HUD to colour change the cord. These awesome nails are from Flair, have several colours in the HUD and are for Maitreya hands/feet.

What I am Wearing:

Skin/Eyes/Make-up/Horns
Skin - :[P]:- Immortalia Skin-Femme:// Ambrogino  (available at Skin Fair until March 29th)

The Gitana

This type of look pretty much encompasses not only my view of the world (in a general sense), but also stylistically one of the major influences in my RL look. It is also interesting to me, in a way, as I have often been asked (despite being almost deathly pale skinned in reality) whether I am Greek, or Spanish, and in particular if I am Gitana.

The fabulous top, and skirt drape beautifully, are available separately and are by Foxes. They come in several colours, either with a heavy gold embossing, or with a lighter one as shown here. My only small quibble with the skirt is it would have been better photography-wise if it was also textured inside. For general wear this won't be an issue at all. I paired this with this set made of hanging coins off leather cord headband, necklace, and bracelets by Izzie's (there is also earrings, not shown). These pieces all sat beautifully with little to no modification needed to get a perfect fit. I chose the gold, but there is also silver, and copper.
Both of these are available at Uber until March 23rd.

The skin is a lovely skin called Arabian Nights, made by Lumae. The wavy, freeflowing hair is by Tableau Vivant and is called Wicca. I went with a red/black mix to compliment the colour in the top and skirt. My nails are called "Gloriana" by Adoness. Hands and feet are by SLINK. I mention this as there is an update with quite a lot of changes available for both men's and women's SLINK components.

Otthild and Tora

Second post featuring Zibska's gorgeous offerings for Futurewave.
Otthild is probably one of my favourites by Zibska in a while. I'm not usually much of a shiny latex-ish type look, but this is an exception. Everything about this is pure win. The dress, the orbits, and the ruffles (flowers) all are colour change in lovely bright colours........and black.

There is also these oh-so-sexy matching high thigh length strappy boots that match the colours of Otthild. Perfect for both daywear and hitting the clubs for a night out.

The brilliant new hair is by Tableau Vivant and is available at a great new monthly event called Shiny Shabby. Love the textures in both the hairs available at the event and hope to see many more styles using them (and maybe a few more shades).
