Blue Belle Beauty

Blue Belle Beauty - 1

Blue Belle Beauty - 2

Hi everyone,

It's been over two month since I last blogged and so much as been going on in SL and RL but I won't bore you with the details. I recently got a new computer which means I also have a fab graphics card which means I can now blog with shadows and my computer doesn't crash when taking a picture. It hasn't been an easy path to get shadows working correctly but when I did, my world has transformed for the better and blogging will be even more exciting. I get to show you how beautiful SL can really look.

In this blogpost, I am highlighting the beautiful new skin called Gaia by [PXL] that is available at the Skin and Shape Expo. The event is still going until May 20, so hurry on down and pick up this beautiful skin. There are six different skin tones and I am wearing the sunkissed version with cat eyes and a layer of cherry lip color. Each base skin contains 3 different eye styles, 3 eyebrow colors and 3 cleavage enhancements and a freckle layer. You also get 2 hairbase styles plus a bald head skin. Each combo is available in the base skin folder and that comes out to 18 skins in the base pack. You can also purchase eye and lip makeup in single or packs to personalize your skin even further. As with any skins, please make sure to demo them before you purchase. Check it out here: TP

I also popped into the charity event that started today and 100% of proceeds are going for the Alabama Tornado Disaster Fund. I picked up a fun pack of poses and I am using one of them in this pose. Check it out here: TP

To Be or Not To Be…

...a Neko?  Even if you aren't you can still wear LoveCats!!

Last winter, I was hired as a model for LoveCats.  After working there for a few months, my SL time got a lot busier with blogging so I unfortunately had to step down as a model.  However, LoveCat Thei has kindly allowed me to blog for her!  I just want to say, something I noticed right from the start, that LoveCat's shop may be targeted to all the nekos and other furries in SL, but omg...her designs are incredible for wearing everyday too!!

The detail she puts into each piece is amazing.  Its quite obvious the amount of time and effort that she enjoys putting into her work.  And that she loves her job!  You have to see her designs for yourself to see what I mean.  Even for those who don't want to be a Cat or other form of animal in SL, you can still very much appreciate the intricacy of her work and quality it will add to your wardrobe.  The pieces are great for mix and matching for models!  Before I keep going on all night, let me show you what I mean with one of her newest releases for women.

Introducing: Kastle Rock Couture

Yay, finally a blog post!!  I've been playing catch up for some time now, reorganizing my inventory etc.  And I wanted to start with Spooky Mistwallow's gorgeous designs from Kastle Rock Couture.  Spooky is an amazing designer and is quite busy in SL.  She not only owns and designs for Kastle Rock Couture, but she also does the following:

--OWNER - Kastle Rock Couture, Francesca's Affordable Elegance, Sweethairs Affiliate.

--DIRECTOR - Freebies for Newbies, Weekend Bargain Bazaar

--FOUNDER - Associated Hunt Vendors Group, Best Bargains of SL

--CO-ORGANIZER - Kastle Rock Gridwide Hunts, AHVG Hit-n-Run Hunts

You can also keep up with her designs at her website:  www.kastlerockcouture.com

Quite some time ago, before I was ill in RL, she sent me several designs to review and I want to start with this post.  I will show the rest in following posts, figured I'd split them up a bit.  You MUST visit her shop if you haven't yet, her attention to detail as she designs, and making a beautiful garment that brings out the woman in you, are incredible.  And she designs casual wear and menswear too!
