Days at the Coast

Glam Affair's pretty 'Luna' skin applier for GENUS Project classic mesh head is available now at Belle event. 'Luna' is available in Glam Affairs 12 skin tones, each with a choice of brow colours and no brow version. There is a shape included with the applier, although in these pics I have used my own.

I love DOUX's new 'Brandie' hairstyle, available at Equal 10. This long style with simple braided section makes me think of beach or festival days! It comes with huge colour HUD, as with all DOUX hairs, and the option of a deluxe HUD for a further 125L offering an additional 3 styles (giving 4 styles in 1) and the optional metal ring accessories through the braid (with 4 colour options for the metal). The hair comes with built in hairbase/baby hairs that you can switch on or off, and the choice of materials or not.

Studio Skye have released a new 'Pebble Beach' building kit, with various sections that you can put together, along with some rock, grass and seaweed 'accessories' for extra creativity and realism. The textures are beautifully realistic and I really love this set!

Reaper at Play (Time for some gacha fun with The Arcade!)

1st September marks the opening of the new round of The Arcade (yes peeps, it's just a few hours away!)

I was super excited when I first saw the gacha prizes by *Tentacio*! I love working with ball-jointed dolls and these are so fabulously creative. Each prize consists of either a full body, a doll head or doll bra/thong set. There are 2 skin tones up for grabs - natural and vamp - but the bodies can be tinted to match better with skins of other mesh heads or standard avatar skins too. 

There are 2 rare prizes - the skeleton and carousel bodies - and these include both skin colour options. I'm wearing the body (torso) and wings from the rare skeleton prize in vamp but what I really love about these bodies is how you can mix and match the different parts. The arms and legs are from the body of the 'inked vamp' doll. The tattoos on the arms, hands and legs are so detailed and personally I'm lovin' the black nail polish too!

There are 4 doll head prizes (2 different make ups in 2 different skin tones) and each comes with choice of 3 eye colours via a HUD. I'm not wearing the Galatea doll head in the pic but purely cos I loves on my usual doll head so much, so you can see the prizes in the gacha key below.

Most of the props from today's pics are from previous gacha events (I guess I was in gacha-type mood in anticipation of the Arcade!)

However, the tree is new by Studio Skye. OMG this tree is awesome, it's so detailed and perfect for upcoming Halloween scenes and creepy hangouts. It can be used all year round with the scripted season changer (5 options, each season plus 2 for fall). There are 2 versions included, with or without ground base, and the Li upon rez is 10Li or 5Li respectively. Resizing upwards increases Li of course, but I decreased size a little and that brought the Li down a touch.

There are a few more days left of the birthday round of Collabor88 so if you couldn't get in earlier on, you should have no bother now. Exile have released 2 new windswept hairstyles, one of which is the "You Send Me" as shown in this pic and the other I used already in a previous post.

The headpiece dolly reaper is wearing is by Dirty Stories and was at Totally Top Shelf last month but can now be found in their mainstore. The rose colour is changeable via a HUD, as is the skellie hand and the little gems.

Taming Eve

hello ladies! 
I couldn't resist doing a pic with the new 'Eve' outfit (can I call this an outfit?) by deviousMind at The Secret Affair. The set consists of several different parts which can be worn together or separately. Many are fitted mesh, whilst some are also unrigged. Different pasties options are included for your own preference (these are unrigged so you can get them on your ta ta's just right). There is also a tattoo included for body and face on normal texture layer and with Belleza Venus appliers included too! (was soo happy about the appliers lol)
The snakes are available in several colours and all come with colour changeable apples via a drop down menu. 
Azoury has this fabulous horned mask available in two colours options - black and white - at The Secret Affair in addition to the wearable 'pure butterflies' shown also in my last post!
I also discovered these new tropical plants by Studio Skye this week. The pack contains a few different variants and all have amazing details. The best part? They are only 1 prim each (and thats at quite a reasonable size too!).
