I’ve been busy!! I wanted some colorful eyeshadows, so I made two sets — ✿ cheLLe ✿ Simply Dusty and Simply Bright (they’re similar colors), but the Dusty is lighter and Bright pack is bolder. I love both sets, especially the Pink and Peach shadow!
Purchase this pack online!
cheLLe Simply Dusty @ SL Marketplace, cheLLe Simply Bright @ SL Marketplace or at cheLLe mainstore on Juicy
Are you guys ready for a whole lotta footwear? Mon Tissu has just released the Heathrow Boots (Rigged Mesh) in six colors, Sloane Pumps (regular sculpts) in eight colors, and Favorite Wool Tights in a whole bunch of colors!!
Mon Tissu – Sloane Pumps
These pumps are sooo sexy! My go-to shoes are often a pair of simple heels cos they’re low lag & they work with everything.
Mon Tissu – Heathrow Boots (Rigged Mesh)
The Heathrow Boots are Rigged Mesh, so you’ll need to be using a mesh-enabled viewer to see these properly. These boots no mod, but they should fit most avatar cos they will stretch with your height and includes alpha layer.
Mon Tissu – Favorite Wool Tights
These Favorite Wool Tights comes in Organic, Sherbert, Cool, Monochrome, and Primary pack.

Work in progress skin, from Pink Fuel.
I think that lots of girls will be happy with this release, especially if you’re already a fan of the cute young faces from Pink Fuel. I know I am, but I have always favored the ‘youngish’ look in SL rather than the mature glam look. I’m not glam… I don’t really even like to wear shoes most of the time when I’m floating around in-world from sim to sim.
Are you looking forward to the final version of this skin as much as I am?
I hope the final is something like this, because I think it’s perfect already.
(Lots of shoe HUDs! from various brands in SL)
My lil’ shoe review where I commented that a HUD was challenging to use, caused some rage yesterday, so I thought I would try to to skin-match the easy way. A reader suggested that I should use the preset notecard, that came with the PixelMode Fae Wedge shoes, and get a “perfect match in less than 2 mins” so let’s see!
Left: Preset C: 22, 27, 87 | Right: My own (it took a lot more than 2 minutes, but I like the match better)
The skin I’m wearing is Laqroki in Fair tone. So I checked out the suggested Skin Tones Code for this skin, it was LAQ Fair Glow: C: 22, 27, 87. This is the reason why I don’t like suggested preset info. It comes close, and it is definitely helpful, but how one person sees color in SL depends on a number of factors (their Windlight settings, monitor, or own eyes?). But the preset didn’t work for me, and so I used the HUD, like I normally do for most shoes and work out my own setting.
My comment that the Pixel Mode was challenging caused the creator to accuse me of picking apart every product, which isn’t true. CHALLENGING does not mean IMPOSSIBLE. Obviously, I know how to use the HUD, I just personally found it challenging.
chal·leng·ing (ch

adj.
1. Calling for full use of one’s abilities or resources in a difficult but stimulating effort: a challenging course of study; a challenging role for an inexperienced performer.
2. Absorbing; intriguing: a challenging idea.
Translation: it took effort, which I put into, to try and get a better match, and present your product in a way that’s flattering/doing it some justice. I really could have worn it with the suggested preset, and have gray feet, but I don’t like gray feet. 🙁
P.S. I think the Pixel Mode HUD is beautifully designed, but beauty does not always translate to easy.
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)
If you guys have been following my blog for awhile, you’ll know that I love mesh feet/sculpted feet. I hardly ever take my SLink mesh feet off these days, so when Pixel Mode released the new Bare Feet, I went and tried them on! I am no longer banned from the PM sim (or anywhere, that I aware of), so I tp’d right over and got myself a pair.
The price for the Bare Feet is $600L, and includes a HUD, Ankle Blender (tattoo and sock layer), and sizes xx small – large. I also picked up a pair of Flip Flops, for $300L. The Flip Flops includes a Flower Power HUD to change the color of the flower. You can wear the flip flops with, or without the flower.
I was able to get a pretty good match on my feet using one of the 15 skin presets on the HUD, and also tinted the Ankle Blender to hide the ‘line’ where the mesh feet joined with my ankle area. I’ve noticed that this Pixel Mode HUD does not include a color-picker, so you’ll have to use the HSL buttons to tint your skin. I prefer a color picker, cos for me it’s just much easier to tint using it, but thankfully I was able to get a good match for my skin using the HSL buttons. Definite try a demo before purchasing!

A touch of lace added to clothing makes it so much more feminine and interesting. The Emma top and shorts from The Secret Store has just the right amount of lace and a vibrant grapefruit pattern. I’m not taking this outfit off for a week! Visit my Flickr for an up-close look of the pattern and see full-sized images of my bedroom!
I have mentioned this before, but most furniture in SL have built-in poses that are too awkward for nice photos. Which is why I went to the marketplace and bought a pretty sitting pose for today’s photo, instead of using one of the built-in ones that comes with this bed. The pose is from a store called Secret Body; the creator is a fellow blogger that I’ve followed for a long time on Flickr. I love when bloggers create things, such as poses, cos we’re pretty much experts when it comes to hiding bad angles and posing pretty.
What I’m Wearing:
Truth Hair – May (and crown)
The Secret Store – Emma Top, Shorts (Grapefruit)
Ingenue – Maisie Sandals (Ivory)
Can I ask where you got your eyelashes? I love them 🙂
