Head Mistress has just released this Foxy hair and it is totally BAD ASS!! It a messy and spikey updo, which I think is cute enough for gowns and other things too, not just casual wear.

If you haven't heard, artilleri will be removing the store card system on July 24th! I'll be wearing a lot of artilleri for awhile since I had to use my store card asap. I bought this fun artilleri Billie Biker top and paired it with the Betsy pants.

I would've shown you this on my Pink motorcycle but SL ate it! 😛

What I'm Wearing:

Laqroki – April 01 [Fair] Glow skin
Head Mistress – Foxy hair
artilleri – Billie Biker top
artilleri – betsy pants *destroyed*

Are you ready????? Autumn weather IS here!! It's been raining like crazy where I live, and even flooding in some parts. I wish I had one of these Kookie Ono sweaters IRL, it's perfect and cozy.  The Ono sweater also includes the hair (it's attached to the hoodie).

I'm pairing the Kookie Ono sweater with a pair of Djinn & Tonic Tweedheart pants in Navy. These two pieces were made for each other, they go SO well together. The Navy color even matches <3

The Djinn & Tonic Tweedheart pants comes in 6 yummy Autumn shades:

What I'm Wearing:

LeLutka – LondonRevolutionLIght-makeup7
Kookie – Coco Shoes
Kookie – Ono Sweater
Djinn & Tonic – Tweedheart Slacks
MKN – Mouskouri glases

Stiletto Moody gave group members a free pair of Stiletto Moody Bare Lana in Red to celebrate the brand’s anniversary. For various reasons, I haven’t ever bought a pair of SM shoes (with or without feet). I am usually pretty good with tinting feet — and I own a lot of shoes from different brands in SL with them. I don’t understand why a pair of shoes that costs well over $2,000L does not include a HUD but a rather primitive drop-down menu. Really SM, you can’t make a HUD? It would make the tinting process  SO much more pleasant. Other brands have them… Maitreya, SLink, even N-Core!

Anyways.. these shoes are FREE, so you know, like everybody else I’m curious to see what all the fuss is about.

All the photos taken below have NOT been post-processed — this is what a pair of Stiletto Moody Bare looks like to me:

1. Straight out of the box — my skin doesn’t match and the ankle strap doesn’t fit into the shoe.

2. I tried fixing my skin color via the ‘ControlFreak’ option and inputting my RGB — uh-oh my feet are PURPLE. So obviously I’ll have do it using the R,G,B drop-down menu which I hate. How am I suppose to know if I need to plus or minus more Green, Red or Blue? I’m a visual person, give me a HUD!

3. 10 minutes later, I’ve matched my skin as best as I could and fixed the fitting issue on the ankle strap.

4. Worn with my AO

Now that I’m satisfied with this, I hop off my pose stand and test the shoes out in-world with my AO. And it looks like crap….. hello hot mess. Looks good if you are posing but not so great when you want to wear it in-world.

5. Is this what you paid $2,000L for? (or however much these costs, I don’t know the exact price)

Would I buy a pair of Stiletto Moody? NO — not with the ankle strap issue. The foot isn’t that nice either with all those heavy shadows but it’s probably something I could live with.. but not for the price tag or the ill-fitted prims.

I know there are die-hard Moody fans out there, so enjoy your shoes! 🙂
