The other day I picked up Amacci's new lingerie set in purple. Absolutely gorgeous. :) I was struggling for something to wear with it when I happened upon an old treasure: one of Dazzle's (aka Last Call) old outfits. It came in a bunch of colors, and one of them just happened to be very close to the same shade as the lingerie!

Today I was determined to wear the pink Stylus heels from N-Core, especially after my diverted attempt of the other day! I rummaged through my inventory and tried things on one after another until I found a close match from one of my old standbys: Little Rebel. Jonquille's store closed a while back, but that'll never stop me from wearing some of her great designs!

Truthfully, I'm not entirely satisfied with this outfit. The shoes are a bit pinker and a bit darker than the top I'm wearing. I know, I know, I'm just being obsessively nitpicky again! I kept accessories simple with a classic jewelry set from Caroline Apollo and the watch I recently bought from GOS.

The hair, called "Jana's Curls," was made by Imani Moseley of Fetish Boutique. I met Imani waaaaay back when I was only a couple weeks old! I was really happy to find out she'd started making hair, and I've yet to find hair that looks quite like this style. I wear it often!

I put together today's pic using techniques from Ryker Beck's blog. I've had trouble with greenscreen compositing in the past, and Ryker's instructions made it really simple!

Cupcakes is holding a gift bag sale! Several bags of goodies (skins, eyes, shapes, and clothes) are available in the front entrance of the store for L$250 each. When I saw this particular dress I knew I had to have it. For some reason I've always thought babydoll dresses wouldn't work on my shape. (I am loath to flatten my av's rear, even for system skirts. *sigh*) I bit the bullet, though, and put on my zero-butt shape for this outfit. To my surprise, it looked great!

Again with the N-Core pumps. I know, I know. :D I have all the colors, though, and I'm determined to make an outfit with each color! Besides, I love 'em!

Now for the watch... I really like the design of this watch. It's very intricate. It's also modifyable -- a must for jewelry. This watch has a ton of scripts, though. I strongly suggest editing the watch and selecting "Set Scripts to Not Running in Selection" from the Tools menu in your viewer. Do we really need working watches in SL? If I need to know the time, I just use the clock next to my computer in RL!
