Look what I found hiding in my unopened folder! If you haven’t figured it out by now, my unopened folders are the messiest part of my inventory. I regularly go through them trying to clean up the mess by opening things and filing them away, or discarding them. Life as a blogger lol.
This great looking little belted dress comes in standard mesh sizes and the small fits me perfectly 🙂
It’s rare I’ve done anything goth related. I don’t really see myself that way, however, being SL, if you spend enough time here you’ll end up with enough inventory to do literally any style you want.
So I gathered together some goth related items for you today. And of course I have to go raven haired, light skinned, and put on some black makeup for this!
The skin was a hunt item if I remember correctly, and the lace mask is built right in.
The nails are for Maitreya hands only (they do not work on Slink). They have a HUD to let you adjust the background color, and set the metal details to either silver or gold. And the necklace is just a nice piece that would also sit well against a medieval outfit.
ALB usually makes nice clothing, and this is no exception. I must say though that I’d be horribly confused as a newbie if I was confronted with the sheer number of items in the contents of this package that was ALB’s hunt item for PoE9. (And yes, now it’s over, this will be my last PoE post until next Christmas).
It looks lovely. The texturing particularly on the gown is very nice with the gauze and feathers.
There are 47 pieces of clothing in this package. There is fitmesh for classic avis, specific fitmesh top and pants for a slew of mesh bodies, fitmesh gloves, sculpts for the fur, and strangely system layer pants and Slink and Maitreya appliers for the same.
Now, I know we love fitmesh, but pants? This is a gown, surely leave out the 14 different versions of the pants? And Slink and Maitreya appliers but no Omega?
OK so I figured out what to put on. I got to the fur trim for the gloves, which are sculpties. I’m always wary of fur bits anyway, but I put these on and they just looked… weird. There were these cones running up my arms and clipping my skin… oh do I need to resize to get the cones to go inside my arms? No, then they poke out the back of my elbows? What? I played around for about 5 minutes before I figured out they were 180 degrees rotated. The cone needed to point down my arms. A newbie would surely have given up!
This skirt and blouse is all on piece standard size fitmesh. It has a great HUD that allows you to change the textures for the blouse, skirt, belt. and hem.
The mesh detail is really nice, and I have a funny feeling this is going to become a favourite outfit when the weather warms up a little 🙂
This neat little dress from Vaxer comes with a seven color HUD to select your combo. The dress is in fitmesh for the five standard sizes, plus specific fitmesh for Venus, Physique, and Lara.
Let’s have dinner in a nice little New York café, what do you say?
This outfit is the PoE9 Hunt gift from AlaFolie. It’s a separate top and skirt. The standard sizes don’t appear to be standard (with things like “XXS XS” on one piece for example) but I didn’t try them on to see as the package contains specific fitmesh for lots of bodies, including Lara.
I also want to specifically mention my hair style. This is the reds pack for Stone Cold Seduction by Exile. In my opinion, you won’t find a more versatile hair in SL, and it’s certainly one of my favs. It’s possible to vary this from dark reds to strawberry blondes like you see here, and you can add streaks in a number of colours. I just added some brown streaks here to make this appear even more blonde that it really is.
Buying a swimsuit in the middle of winter is a nice way to save money in RL, but you don’t get much of a discount in SL! It’s summer every day in SL somewhere 🙂
This, in my (completely biased) opinion, is the best one piece swimsuit in SL at the moment. It’s made by Maitreya so if you don’t have Lara, you’re out of luck. It’s a little spendy at L$300, but I’ve spent nearly that in real money for a swimsuit in RL, so I can’t complain too much lol
It has a color HUD for the braided straps, but not the swimsuit itself. So select your color carefully!
And getting the strap color right is important if you opt to get the additional kimono cover-up (L$325, hey it was Christmas time 🙂 )
I was looking though my unopened folder and came across this great little bandana top by Etchaflesh that I’d completely forgotten about. I think it was on their MM boards a month or so ago.
It has standard sizes and a bunch of fitmesh sizes, including Lara (you know when I don’t list them, I’ve cleaned up the ones I don’t have bodies for, and am too lazy to unpack the box again lol).
The top also has a mammoth thirty-two color HUD. If you can’t find a color to suit, I’ll be very surprised!
The top fits perfectly over my Coco fitmesh jeans 🙂
