The Alphabet Challenge ~D~

Hmmm Asia looks like a homeless bench sleeping pimp in that pic :) Anyhoo D!

It was pretty easy this week as I actually had stuff in my inventory. I chose the vest and pants from DCNY, a pimp-eque (new word) hair hat combo from Dura and the Dante heels from Kalnins. Jewellery is past group or free item from Dark Mouse. I has a teeny problem finding a skin, then found an old 'Dressing Room' item from Dekade hiding among the cobwebs in my inventory.

Asia is wearing:

• Pants- High Tide, Wheat -DCNY
• Vest-Wheat Closed -DCNY
• Hair/Hat- Arai Braid Up-Dura
• Skin-Dahlia_sun kissed-Dekade (Old TDR Item)
• Jewellery -DarkMouse
• Shoes-Dante -Kalnins

Yay! blogged before breakfast.now it's toast and coffee time.

Have a great Monday x

52 Weeks of Colour-Khaki!

Here we are again, The weeks are really flying by now. What on earth will I blog about without 52WOC to urge/prompt me on?

Khaki is one of those colours that can be interpreted a couple of ways. Wiktionary describes it as a yellowish brown colour and the colour of dust. Where as I always thought Khaki was a green shade.

It doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things but the dress I used for this weeks challenge leans more towards that yellowish brown than the green.

I downloaded the latest Firestorm viewer after a suggestion/comment on one of my posts (Thanks for that Khloe) and....drum roll please......I LIKE IT!

All Firestorm ready I decided to try another mesh dress.. The dress is from Maii @ The Markeplace. The dress came with shoes and a shape (not worn) and this time it fitted me without any SL shape tweaking. It's a great dress and a great intro price of 99L$ makes it all the sweeter. The dress only comes in one size, BUT- there is a demo available to try the fit out.

A past Lelutka hair fair freebie and some bold jewellery from Elemental Earth Designs finished off my look.

Asia is wearing:

• Dress-Looka-Maii@The Marketplace
• Hair-PINNED hair - FireTop-Lelutka-2010 Hair Fair Freebie.
• *Jewellery- Kiowa Bracelet~ Amber-Elemental Earth Designs
• Skin-Emma Tan 6 -Zoul Skins

*denotes a review item.

Kiss Kiss!

52 Weeks of Colour- Brick Red!

Brick Red! We have had Fire Brick and now Brick Red, I wonder how many other 'brick' colours there are ? :)

Coffee in hand I fired up the lappy and toddled off to The Marketplace. The dress I found was priced at a teeny weeny 10L$, and no I didn't forget to add another 0. Passion4fashion also has an in world store.

The dress moves nicely and it's sooooooo inexpensive. Worth picking up for fancy dress or costume parties. I picked up a few things just in case I ever decide to reinvent myself as an English Scarlett O'Hara :-/  It comes with the cape/modesty boobie coverer thingy (shown above)or wear without for a sexier look.

I only added a bracelet, earrings and the ever popular 'Morrisania' hair from Damselfly and I was finished with another 52WOC. The bracelet and earrings are both really old group gifts from YS&YS

Asia is wearing:

• Dress-Red Mermaid Formal Dress-Passion4Fashion
• Hair-Morrisania, Black Pearl-Damselfly
• Jewellery- Bronze Flexi Earring & Bracelet-YS&YS

Have a great Sunday.

52 Weeks of Colour-Bronze!

Not wanting to break with my tried and tested pattern. I am LATE with this weeks colour.

I found a dress on The Marketplace that fitted to this weeks colour challenge. The package contains the dress with matching pumps and a shape (shape not worn) and cost 99L$. BUT it was mesh!

I am not currently using a mesh enabled viewer so had to step over to the dark side for a while (Viewer 3) to try the dress.

What can I say about my experience in using the official viewer? probably nothing that would be allowed on a 'no adult' content blog. It suckedddd. I could not get my eyes focused, rezzing took for ev-eeeeeeeeeeer and it just felt laggy and horrible.

Anyway after a lay down in a darkened room with an ice pack on my mouse finger & brain. Here is 'Bronze'

I was curious about the whole Mesh thing and TBH I wasn't blown away by it. That could be purely to do with the trauma (yes I said trauma) of using viewer3

What I wasn't crazy about:

1. Asia has the figure of a malnourished stick insect but this dress was too small. I had to tinker with Asia's shape (think teeny hips, teeny body fat numbers)
2. It made Asia look a bit blocky/chubby.

What I did like:

1. No sticking out limbs when taking pics

The dress itself is as sexy as hell! I will be trying other mesh items but I will wait until Firestorm is mesh friendly.

Asia is wearing:

• Dress-Darla-Maii@The Marketplace
• Hair-A817 hair / shell-Tram
• Jewellery-Mica-Glamorize
• Skin-Emma Tan 3 cleavage-Zoul Skins
• Shoes-included with dress

I will mention one more thing, While taking these pics I noticed I wasn't wearing my right hand prim nails. I re-wore them and my dress unattached (?!?)  LOL, luckily I was at home in my studio. Bare breasted with fab looking nails in public is not a look I will be trying anytime soon.

Kiss Kiss!
