Banana Fana Cut Me To The Strawberry Quick

Here's a supercas banana fana fo fana look I threw together, made up primarily of free gifties that you can scoopie around the grid. With some strawberry flav tossed in.
The skin I'm wearing is the new "Emery" face by Grixdale that's debuting at Skin Fair 2011; be sure to check out the funky "undereye" shadow makeups here too, for anyone wanting something a bit more unique for their avi (I'm obsessed with the "Robin" blue color).
Strawberry banana love + fashionista kisses to all!

Tuffie Girl

I've always wondered if I could create a "vendor"-like poster image, so purely for s**ts & giggles, I gave it a whirl for creator Aikea Rieko's deliciously glowy new "Ataciara" skin line, which begged for a dressed-down look with a bit o' righteous 'tude. Aikea's edgy face tats were such a 'natch with this skin (luhs these subtle swirls melting into smokey eye makeup). *mwuahs Aikea Rieko*
Aikea's naughty girlie clothing pieces are such tuffie girl gear, like this vividly-hued peacock feathered mini + "lace wrap" gloves. A free skullie arm tat + puffy vest helped boost my pretend tuffie mood. *flexes puny bicep*

Tuffie girl love + fashionista kisses to all!

Ready for Bed

A certain someone found this free lingerie on a hunt + strongly suggested that I try it on.
I thought this lacy creation worked well with this cheapie lace collar by Fore. A mussed Dernier Cri hair + 1 of the Breast Cancer Awareness (i.e., bewbie grab) free poses by Glitterati added some saucy 'tude to this look.

Gavin is showing 1 of the many $25L + under finds at Phoenix Rising. (The entire store is on sale for this price; tons of $1L gifts at the entrance too). G's grumpy/bossy look is free. LOL.

*Mwuahs* to the gracious Mo Miasma for letting us shamelessly hog her building platform so we could shoot in privacy. Bedtime love + fashionista kisses to all!

Sculpturesque

My girl Moca Loup has debuted 2 lovely outfits at Designers United 4, which by this time have already made their way all over the feeds. Still, the sculpturesque quality of these looks -- from the ruffled fabric to each lovingly meticulous detail (dramatic "bloom" hats, floaty black crepe layers, sparkle on the tights, etc.) -- was just too good to pass up for a quickie photo op. *mwuahs Moca Loup*
As Gavin observed, I'm so totally ready for the Kentucky Derby in these getups. Bring on the mint juleps! *takes an enormous un-ladylike swig*
Sculpturesque love + fashionista kisses to all!

Kisses From Hana

When Maitreya creator Onyx LeShelle generously sent her new, lushly floral "Hana" stilettos my way, I was inspired to slip on some free leopard lingerie + a tawny hair, and hit the tropical shores for some sunny rays. *mwuahs Onyx LeShelle*
These heels are blossoming with lovely fashionista details: dark-rimmed flower edges, meticulous gradient shading on each small petal, thin double straps, etc. Plus in my opinion, one of the grid's best skin matching HUDs (take it from this HUD-challenged shopper). Floral fabby-luhs.
In other news, I think I’ve finally learned how to (fully) activate shadows! *Mwuahs* to my girl Nina Fessbeinder for chatting with moi re: this shadows stuff.

Hana Bay love + fashionista kisses to all!

Purple Haze

Hi there mah frugalistas. You simply must pick up these drop dead gorges, shiny candy purple, double ankle strap stilettos that are free by Tara, which were so le good that I just had to build a look around them. Yummies.
These heels were screaming for something girlie girl + the latest $10L May group gift by My Precious, with its flowy, iridescent magenta skirt, fit nicely. A black leather + pearls collar by Atelier AM added a li'l something extra to this look.
Anyone in the mood for some free hair might want to take a stroll thru Savoir Hair, which has gathered tons of free gifties from creators across the grid. This "Geode" color in this free style by Exile has subtle gold lowlights which are just lovely.
I'm also showing the latest Glam Affair sale skin at The Dressing Room. -- I have to say I luhs this pretty shimmer to the face, which is so great set off by these dark brows + golden-nude lips. Some "Fairy Eyes" I recently scooped by Negaposi, in this gorges dark eggplant hue + a golden glow, finished this golden plum look.
"Purple Haze" is not just a song by the immortal Hendrix. Love + fashionista kisses to all!

Under A Neon Sky

SL exploration is one of the funnest things you can do in-world (esp if you have a souped-up laptop like me + can finally see permanently on Ultra, yay!)
The revised Sick5 has been getting some attention recently + I've been wanting to check it out. This rugged, burnt-out urban landscape, half-sunken into chunky broken asphalt, is simply a stunning build. Such a desolate vibe of course called for a ruffed-up pretty girl look, so I went with red plaid. And ciggie. Hee.
Just over there . . . I coulda sworn there was a lucky chair. Hmph.
I actually built this look around the new free Twisted & Spoiled jewelry gift, which is a simple black leather collar + silver necklace. The free Phoenix Rising skirt I'm wearing has already been all over the feeds; the store is currently having a 50% off black, red + white sale (i.e., where every fashionista seems to be this morning). I can't seem to take off this free lucsious red-lipped Eret!ka skin; a new "Sparkly Death" tote bag by Boom + some discounted Dark Mouse red plaid jewelry finished this look.
Now to see if I can get into The Deck for the new free Tuli skin gift + tons of other scoopies there. Happy weekend + love + fashionista kisses to all!
