It’s MY skin!

by Gogo on November 30, 2009

in Polls

Many skin designers are NOT okay with someone ripping their skin from SL and modifying it in Photoshop (even if it’s for personal use only). What do YOU think?

Is it OK to modify a skin for personal use?

  • Yes! I paid for it, it is mine to modify as I please (but for personal use only). (53%, 154 Votes)
  • No! That is copyright infringement (unless you made it or using Elohs). (47%, 134 Votes)

Laqroki Ania Skins

by Gogo on November 30, 2009

in Fashion, Skins

Laqroki has just released the Ania skins!! This face is so stunning with luscious lips and a rosy complexion. I’ve been wearing Laqroki for years, and I still am excited everytime there’s a new release. This is a gorgeous skin — usually I wear “fair” skin tone but I went with “peach” this time because I think it pairs really well with Brunette hair.

Each Ania skin tone comes with 10 makeups and hair base version. See all 10 makeups below:

I’m wearing AOHARU’s latest Nordic Knit Coat. It was lust at first sight when I saw this coat on Machang’s Flickr account. I’ll have to show you the other colors in another blog entry.. they’re simply stunning and goes great with ANEXX’s Lace Up Boots from last week.

What I’m Wearing:

Laqroki – Ania (Peach) Glow Skins *all
Truth – Cameron, Rebecca (Cocoa)
Aoharu – Nordic Knit Coat (Cream)
Kyoot – Corduroy Mini (Camel)
artilleri – Zee Tank top (white)
Miel – Cue Set *necklace only
Anexx – LaceupBoots (Dark Brown)

LeLutka Estelle

by Gogo on November 30, 2009

in Fashion, Skins

The LeLutka Estelle skins are out! As you already know, I’m very excited about these skins — the makeups are awesome, the face is definitely an improvement from Eclat (especially highlights) and the brows are thinner. Buuuuuuuuut…… well, I still wish the light brows were simliar to the dark ones :D

( Light brows & Dark brows )

I usually wear Light skin tone, but I really enjoy all of them since LeLutka has a different set of makeups for each tone. The Light tone has 12 makeups and a base skin — more than all the other tones this time around. Each skin includes 2 brow options and hair base:

I’m wearing Zaara’s new Kanti Lingerie set. I’m so excited Zaara is doing lingerie now because I think her textures are outstanding. This lingerie set includes all layers, so you can wear the bra & panty alone, or with the garters and stockings.

Shine has just released a collection of Silent Lucidity eyes and they’re STUNNING. You guys know how incredibly picky I am with my eyes, so I only recommend ones that I personally would wear.

I saw these a beautiful LaGyo Bad Romance jewels a few days ago and completed lusted after them! They’re inspired by Lady Gaga, but I’m wearing it with a vintage Last Call ‘Casbah’ outfit because I thought the gold pattern on the top really went well with the jewels — like some kind of treasure chest explosion :D

This hairrrrrrr…… is crazy awesome!

LeLutka – E/EstelleLight-makeup3(L Brows)
Exile – Breeze Remix (Harlow)

LeLutka Estelle Sneak Peek!

by Gogo on November 27, 2009

in Fashion, Skins

Estelle is LeLutka’s newest skin. This is like Eclat’s sister skin, but with totally new brows, lips and different face shadings. I like Estelle a lot — especially the size of the brows! The dark brows are absolutely stunning, and less thick than the previous Eclat skin. Howeverrrrrrr, I have no idea what is going on with the light brows on Estelle.

Estelle – Light Brows & Dark Brows

Do you notice the corners on the Light Brows? There’s a small hair patch, making it thicker than the Dark Brows option. Some people may like this quirky style, but I’m not fond of it. I wish Minnu had made both of the brows the same :X

Now, with a little Photoshop magic, I erased the hair patch to make my *ideal* perfect brow shape. Note: I still suck at PS’ing. Why can’t we have these brows!!! :P

A sharp reader wanted to know more about Estelle, so there you have it. I’m really excited about this skin but I wanted to wait until I know for sure what makeups will be available before blogging it. However, I can show you two of my favorites:

Even with the quirky Light Brows, I still love Estelle! It’s a gorgeous face, and definitely a great follow-up to Eclat.

Estelle will be released at LeLutka on Saturday!
