The EYES have it

I've always loved +:+WTG+:+ and Tosy Xue is one sweet man.  If you haven't been, follow the link.  If you have, still follow it....there are some amazing new things in the store.  See that eye charm on my left eye?  It's one of two that are in the store.  I grabbed this one a while back and new is the Dragon Fes Eyewear.  Something very edgy about them.  And it's not just what you see.  The eye pieces come with a HUD that allows you to customize ..... stones, gems, metals.....to match your outfits.  Incredible item at a great price.

In this photo I'm also wearing +:+WTG+:+ Fragrance earrings and necklace.  Again, CUSTOMIZABLE is a keyword for these items.  You are not just getting ONE item, it's basically a whole wardrobe.

Don't miss out on the nails, many with color changing HUDs and ring options, the newest necklaces and earrings with HUDs.....Tosy is spoiling us.  HOP TO IT and get to +:+WTG+:+.

Discoveries


New discoveries around the grid.  I stopped by Dura the other day when I was doing Trip's makeover (see below) and found this hair, girl 16.  I'm loving the short hair for modeling, no fighting over hair inside my collar.

Today, my wandering took me to Stuff in Stock.  I read the bargain hunters bible (as I call it) Seraphim Blog.  It introduced me to Stuff in Stock and one of the items there was by WTG one of my absolute favorite jewelry and nail designers in all of sl.  The most amazing Psychedelic necklace and earrings.  Great colors of black, olive and mulberry all for $70L.  YES!  That isn't a typo.  I am not sure how long Stuff in Stock keeps the same inventory but if you read this, RUN over and grab the jewelry by WTG.

elikatira, better known as [e]

Stopped by [e] today and of course walked out with at least two new hairs.  This one is called Looking.  There are this style hair out there but I have to say this one is my favorite so far.  Of course, I bought the essentials collection as I always do at [e].  They've got that down. The Essentials pack contains eight hair colors, including black, white, two reds, two blondes and two browns.  How perfect!  All for a whopping $250L.  Great deal I think.  



The big excitement?  New mesh hair at [e].  Yes I bought some, that will come in another post very soon.


Makeover

So....I have my photo working grid and lots of couples type poses that have no picture with them. I con ppl into helping me by hopping on poseballs so I can grab pictures of what each couples pose looks like, making it easy to chose the pose each time.  Simple, right?  Well, it was Trip's turn to help me out and poor guy....ended up getting a makeover out of his kindness!  I didn't realize how orange his skin was....but check below.  Yes, it is out of focus but i zoomed in so you could see the hands as this was a distance shot I was trying to grab.  Check the hands out....same color as my shirt.  I ended up not being able to use the pictures I took that day due to "orange skinitis".

BUT....a cure was coming!

BEFORE

And....AFTER
I don't know about you but the after for me is shades of Ian Somerhalder. I love the look.  Best part?  It was all done for free with group gifts.  Think I'm going to put together a basic notecard with this info because we all know men's stuff is not plentiful yet.  And decent free stuff?  We all know that free and quality rarely go together.

Shape - was a shape he had that we edited, lengthened neck and arms, decreased that overgrown musculature that most guys sport and is so unappealing.  That look goes with the cromagnin man look.  The clothes he had then fit so much better and had style.
Skin - Micha: Romeo Free Group Gift from Heartsick
Hair - Group Gift A from Dura

Simple huh?  I was impressed with the changed look, all for no lindens no less.  Happy day!
