Sun, Surf and Turf

I have a mix of things today for you.  I found some mesh things in the Mesh Around hunt that could actually be mixed and matched (gasp!) so I had to share them.  This dress is one of two styles you get (in multiple sizes, of course) from Happy Undead in the hunt.  I discovered that this soft, green top from Ingenue went smoothly over it so I had to combine them.  There is a pink one too!

My nails are a hunt gift from Moondance and I'm sorry I couldn't get a great shot (still trying to figure out the viewer I need to use to get around the rezzing issues I'm having, sadly) but when you see them up close they have a sort of lacy-gem-gothic style texture on them.  My hair is the Moolto hunt prize from Catwa and it comes in a few shades of blonde.  There's a male hair style for the hunt too! 

The skin I am wearing is a new release from MiaSnow at the Skin Addiction event.  As soon as I showed the picture on Flickr people were out asking me where the skin was from.  It's such an unusual look, but it's so soft and serene.  It's photorealistic in some spots but not so much that you end up in creepy uncanny valley territory.  Cleavage, dimples, eyebrow options, everything.  it's not free but there IS a free set of freckles at the event!  My jewelry is new from Hate Me and Eat Me and is also not free but I love it!  Green is my fave color and the girl in me that was raised Catholic can't get enough crosses.

I Wanna Do Bad Things But Stay Comfy :P

I almost have my issues with rezzing and stuff figured out so I wanted to share some good stuff real quick with my lady avatar.  First off, Plausible Body is a store I have heard of but never been to.  I went finally and discovered lots of cute things, all of them set as pay-what-you-want.  What P.W.Y.W. means is that you decide what the items are worth to you, what you are willing to pay, what you have available to you.  Say you have a newbie friend who has very few Lindens or you are on an extremely strict budget; you could go to Plausible Body and pay a small amount.  Say you have a good budget and you love the items; you can go and pay the suggested price on the vendor photo or even higher.  I'm on the strict budget end right now so I wasn't able to pay a ton but I plan on paying a bunch on my next visit once I make some more Ls.  What you do is click the vendors and you'll receive the items, often in several colors.  Then you go to the pay box in the center of the store and pay what you can.  It's a great concept and I sincerely hope people don't take advantage of it in a negative way.

OK that was a lot of chatting, sorry. xD  I wanted to mention my cute shirt above.  I am super addicted to True Blood so when I saw this Do Bad Things shirt from Sn@tch for only 75L, which includes a whole bunch of other shirts too, I had to grab it as fast as I could.  I paired it with this completely fresh and innocent looking skin from the M.O.C.K. Cosmetics group gift for a bit of contrast.  I added some not free colorful tattoo makeup (not free) from Miss Shippe's, a 10L open mouth alpha from Adore&Abhor, and a side pony style (not free) from Alice Project, and a friendly pose above from Status to make it even more innocent seeming.  My eyes are one of three colors you can find as a subscriber gift from Skin Within.

Mix of Stuff

Hi guys!  I'm still ultra busy but I wanted to show you some stuff.  This pose is one of several you can get from STaTus.  The group is currently free to join and they send out regular gifts.  Pretty awesome! The clock is one of the KittyCats advent gifts, this one from Intrigue Co.  It's cute and the eyes and tail swing back and forth.  Basically you just go to the KittyCats store and click the dates on the board in the center of the store and each date gives you a new gift.  Everyday there is a new one but you can get the past days too.  My bodysuit and skin are from Adore&Abhor and are 100L each for the Twisted Krissmuss event.  We also have a new release item out for around 50L each day through Christmas.

My hair is free from Fab-u-lous has a Christmas gift.  Very cute and several colors are included.  My eyes are from A Netherworld.  The red and green eyes are free right now and the red eyes are only 50L.  They are prim eyes so you can mix and match like I did or wear the matching ones.  other colors available too. :)

I know this picture is bright but hey it's an excuse to wear sunglasses indoors. :P  I just felt like I needed something super spacey to show off the free Galaxy outfit from Sakide.  The outfit includes the lingerie with several options to wear, a ring and earrings.  It's pretty easy to find too!  My pose is one of many you can get from Status for Moody Monday.  Only 55L for packs of 5 poses.  Dang good deal.  The creators are bloggers so you know they will work wonders in photos.
