The Skyclad Fashionista

Hey guys! It's almost valentines day, and the XOXO hunt is going on! This one is a little different from standard hunts; you go to each store on the list and say "XOXO" within chat range of the hunt sign! There's a 50/50 shot of getting the item, but you can try for each one every day until the hunt ends. Alternatively, if you don't want to wait, you can pay $L50 for each item. I manager to win a couple of gifts from the hunt, and wore them together with the group gift from PurpleMoon, and put together a gorgeous valentines outfit!


My gown is the current group gift from PurpleMoon, and just in time for valentines! There are also optional flexi prims that attach to the shoulder and hip, under the roses, but they were too large for my small frame, so I decided to wear the gown without them. The gown includes standard as well as mesh body sizes, optional roses (shown), optional flexi prims (not shown) and gloves on both clothing layers, AND appliers! (not shown)


In other news, Feb. 10th was my rezday! To celebrate, I bought myself an expensive present I've had my eye on for ages... the Lelutka Stella 2.0 Bento head! With it, I'm wearing Lumae's Yulia skin, which comes in her full line of tones, includes 8 lippies in a wide range of colours to match any look. I'm also nibbling on the Heartbeat cookie from Fetch for the XOXO hunt! You get 3 colours, with and without the EKG hearbeat on them, for a total of 6 options!


Finally, I finished off the outfit with the sophisticated-yet-cute Hypnotic Hearts nails from Dark Passions! These are currently FREE in the XOXO hunt, you can try each day to win them, and I definitely encourage you to do so! The prize is a fatpack of appliers (slink, maitreya, and omega) in 9 different colours!

Hey guys! So, If you haven't heard yet, SL is implementing a new system called PROJECT BENTO, which adds bones for fingers, facial movements/sliders, tails, and wings. The default SL viewer with bento support has been out for a while, but the firestorm BETA viewer with the capabilities was just released recently. (For more info, and download links, please join the Phoenix-Firestorm Preview group!). I'm a die-hard firestormer, so I've been holding off on bento-ing myself until the release of the beta viewer, but now that it's here, I grabbed the bento-enabled Kioko head from Akeruka (which is on SALE right now guys, along with all of their bento heads!! Get them while the sale is on), and the Bento-enabled hands from Vista Animations, and have been playing around with them pretty much non-stop!

Extended fingers and a smile! The Vista prohands come with a regular version, a bento version, 4 tester animations that are fun to play with (You can see Strawberry Singh test out all of them in her youtube video [HERE]). It also includes a HUD with tons of skin presets, 4 nail lengths, a skin-tinting thingie, 18 nail polishes, glove and tattoo layer toggles, and a dozen hand poses! Each nail can be polished individually, and your hands can move independently. I'm actually using the poses designed for bento use from Sari-Sari, there's 6 in the pack and they're super cute

Wiggly Fingers~! One thing to note is that these hands ARE still in beta, and one negative that i noticed is that the nails sink into the fingers a little bit in some poses. However, the creator has been really receptive to customer feedback, and all updates are included and FREE. Definitely try the demo to see if these are right for you. These DO fit mesh bodies!

While you're looking at my wiggly fingers, check out my nails! These are new from Dark Passions and are currently available at the Mesh Body Addicts Bi-Monthly event! I am wearing a set from the "Shades of Gray" palette. I've marked the one above with a red box! 

Hey guys!
I am sooooooo excited because recently Alaskametro updated her makeups to include OMEGA appliers! The packs now include system layers as well as appliers for: Loud Mouth, TMP, Omega, Lelutka, and the Slink Visage heads! Her makeups have always been a great deal, but the deal just keeps getting sweeter!

If you're new to the world of makeup, Alaskametro has absolutely gorgeous products for unbearably amazing prices. These look fabulous on the default SL heads, but since I just got the LOGO Alex head, which is Omega-compatible, I thought I'd scootch up to my cute vanity from Kei-spot and show these little pieces of art off on my new face! There are so many fantastic sets to choose from, and I couldn't pick just one... SO, here's ALL of the lippies!


 On an unrelated note, my partner decided to spoil me with the newest lingerie from Dirty Princess! The Ritzy princess lingerie comes with a ton of layers, options, and omega appliers to boot! It DOES show your nipples, so if you're not comfortable with that, grab some pasties like I did! If you're up for a little luck-of-the-draw, then you should check out Doe's hair gacha at Epiphany! I am wearing one of the ginger shades from the RARE Essentials pack.


First up, Alaskametro's Angel lipsticks. These come in 6 luscious matte ombre comours that fade from dark at the edges to bright in the center. Colours in the pack are: Black Cherry, Cyber, Dark Chocolate, Deep Forest, Plum, and Twilight.


If you're looking for some great neutrals to "go with everything" then you'll want to pick up the Creme Brown set! Colours in the pack are: Brunette, Burnt, Cafe Au Lait, cashew, chestnut, and nude


You can never go wrong with a great red lip! The Creme Reds set has a perfect red lippie for everyone! Colours in the pack are: Coral, Fiery, Joan, Harlot, Melot, and Wild


If you like the creme sets but want something a little glossier, then the Evelyn palette is for you! This palette features sophisticated but fun lippies in a wide variety of tones. Colours in the pack are: Carmine, Coco, Fatale, Girly, Petal, and Rebel.


Heading back to the matte side of the spectrum, we have the Heat lippie palette! These are bright colours but not TOO bright, perfect for adding a pop of colour to an outfit. These are definitely reminiscent of the Baby Lips lip balms IRL. Colours in the pack are: Cerise, Coral, Flamingo, Lemonade, Pool, and Tango.


Our final matte set of the day is the Matte Dark palette. This features some deeper lippies in staple tones with a creamy matte look. Colours in the pack are: Autumn, Classic Red, Gothic, Swoon, Vamp, and Venom


If you're more into shiny lips, like me, then you'll love the Liquid Shine lipsticks. These are partially transparent, but pack a super shine punch! Colours in the pack are:Claret, Fuchsia, Mocha, Orchid, Rose, and Violet


Alaskametro's lip stains are all fairly neutral without adding too much gloss or shine. Colours in the pack are: Acorn, Berry, Cerise, classic, cranberry, and Rose.


Finally,the sheer glosses are semi-transparent to let your beautiful lips show through partially! There are 6 sheer neutral shades to compliment almost every skin tone and provide a subtle hint of colour and gloss. Colours in the pack are: Blush, Golden, Mauve, Nude, Pale, Rouge

{p.s... "WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN??" I know, right? Things have been hectic here in the Glasswing house. In the last month or two my mom and her husband separated and are getting divorced, so my mom stayed with us for a while, we've had quite a few family deaths, I've been taking care of my grandparents more than ever, and my partner and I are planning a road trip that will more than likely lead to a non-local move soon, occupation changes, and other generally possibly huge things... so that's where I've been! Sorry guys! ♥}
