I didn’t do any Advent calendars this year… at least not until today when a friend recommended I run to Le’La and grab all twenty four Advent gifts for FREE before they disappear. You don’t even need to join a group!
This is the first outfit I opened, and I’m so glad I listened and grabbed these!
The outfit consists of the top, panties, body/leg wraps (I love how these go right up to my waist!), and heels. The heels are sized for Lara, Slink, Legacy, Kupra, and Belleza. All the other pieces are sized for Lara, Freya, Hourglass, Physique, Kupra, and Kupra Bimbo.
The outfit features a thirty (!) color HUD, which lets you select colors for all pieces separately, with the addition of the belt on the top. This is a wonderful gift! Run and get yours!
Outfit: Mihika Outfit by Le’La (available in their Advent Calendar)
“If you’re an owner of the Maitreya Lara body, and you’ve been reading the news, what Maitreya are calling the “next generation” of the Lara body is now available: Lara X.
You can use the redelivery button in your Lara 5.3 HUD to have the body delivered to you for free. If you own the Petite add-on, you will have to get a redelivery by visiting Maitreya’s main store, also for free.
I’m not going to detail all the changes, you can read them on the Maitreya website if you’re interested.
My initial impression when I first tried on the body was that unless I do extensive shape editing, I won’t be rushing to incorporate it in an outfit soon.
Don’t get me wrong, Lara X has some really nice features, like vastly improved shoulder joints (at the expense of dropping my shoulders by at least 3cm in the name of a “smoother” look). And due to the wrists being slimmed (actually, the entire arm is slimmed), and the ankles also being slimmed (but my thighs and hips got way bigger?!), my SLink hands and feet no longer fit.”
I wrote the above at the end of November, just after Lara X came out, but I didn’t post it. I was having trouble finding the time to do the comparison photos I wanted to post with the comment. And Lara X being just slightly different in height offset from Lara made it difficult enough to get good photos without a lot of fiddling that it made me think it wasn’t worth it.
Since then, I’ve edited a modified shape for Lara X, mostly in an attempt to deal with the above mentioned “way bigger” observation. Looking through the freebies today, I saw the first outfit that made me want to run and make an outfit for the new body.
This dress is Mytra by Madame Noir, a FREE group gift for members, and the group is also FREE to join. There are sizes for Lara X, Legacy, and Reborn. The dress also comes with a three color HUD that also allows you to switch materials on or off.
