    LOGO Infinity Chloe Hybrid Mesh

    LOGO Chloe Mesh

    Meet Chloe. Chloe is a wearable Hybrid Mesh Head from LOGO that works with your SL body (shape) and all existing clothes and hair. I had the pleasure of seeing the work-in-progress of Chloe months ago, but I couldn’t show you guys until the official release. Finally, Chloe is here, and I am officially declaring my love for this hybrid mesh head!! I’ve seen a few mesh heads in SL before from other brands, but none as beautiful and detailed as Chloe.

    LOGO Chloe Mesh

    LOGO Infinity Chloe Hybrid Mesh package includes:

    5 Skin Tones (Alabaster, Bloom, Almond, Amber, Cocoa)
    1 Mesh Head (with 0 or 16 body fat)
    Eyes & Teeth
    Head Alpha
    Mesh Settings Storage
    Shape (with 0 or 16 body fat)
    Body Extras (tattoo layers for body options)
    & optional purchase:
    3 Mesh Add-On Makeup HUDS (All Blush, All Eye Shadows, All Lipsticks)

    LOGO Chloe Mesh

    Look at this amazing Makeup HUD! I’m very excited about this HUD, and I loved that it’s packed with so many options! As you can see, the HUD is scripted to change Lipstick, Eyeshadow, Blush, Nose Style, Eyebrow Color, Eyelashes, and facial Expressions!! I had so much fun playing with the facial expressions, it is my favorite thing about the mesh head.

    LOGO Chloe Mesh

    I loooooooove these 16 Facial Expressions! What I really love, is that the eyelashes moves with each face, so I didn’t need to re-adjust them at all. The scripting for this HUD is flawless, and so easy (and fun!) to use.

    Like many people, I’m pretty attached to my own shape and face that I’ve been tweaking for years. However, I view the Chloe Hybrid Mesh Head as a very pretty doll that can be styled a million different ways. Although many people will have ‘the same face,’ they will not look exactly like you your doll. Like the popular Bloom dolls or the Doll Coco awhile back, people will wear this but still have the option to go back to “their shape” any time.

    LOGO Chloe Mesh

    In addition to the included Makeup HUD, there are 3 more HUDs available for purchase as an add-on. If you want even more Blush, Lipstick, or Eyeshadows, you’ll definitely want to pick up these too.

    I expected the Chloe Hybrid Mesh Head to be quite pricey, but it’s cheaper than most skin fatpacks. The package which includes all five skin tones, a Makeup HUD, and all body extras, is on sale for $2499L. If you wanted even more makeup options, the add-on eyeshadow HUD is $249L and the blush add-on HUD is $99L.

    shape

    You can wear the Logo Shape included with the mesh head or wear your own body shape, like I have above. To wear your own shape, just make sure you copy your body numbers to the Logo shape, but pay attention to the neck area, make sure you’re not changing body fat too much otherwise it won’t fit perfectly. The neck width, and neck length can be adjusted to accommodate a new head size as well. The mesh head size can be re-sized by changing your shape’s head size.

    I’m soooo in love with Chloe’s mesh face! Here are some more pictures for your viewing pleasure:

    Rosey Outlook

    Exile

    Exile – Take It Off | Unwritten Lyrics

    Exile has just released two new rigged mesh hairstyles, and they’er just fabuloussssssss! I didn’t even need to wear the included head alpha layer with these hairstyles, they just fit perfectly.

    Nylon Outfitters

    My outfit today is from Nylon Outfitters, the Rosy Outlook outfit is part of this month’s Collabor88. I think style & print wise, this outfit is gorgeous and really sweet for Spring. I just wish the skirt was not a system skirt! I had to wear my “System Skirt” shape so my hips didn’t look HUGE from the system skirt layer, and it made my legs too close together (seen in the image above) and really odd looking. The seams are not very nice on this outfit, which is expected from NO brand by now.. but I like the print enough to wear it. Another thing I really despise about the system skirt is the shadow glitch! LL really needs to fix this, cos it ruins so many nice shadow pics.

    Gos

    The new Desire Ankle Boots from Gos are mesh, and includes scripted HUD to change textures on all parts of the boots (Heel, Toecap, Sole, Metal, Strap, and Leather).

    What I’m Wearing:

    Exile – Take It Off | Unwritten Lyrics (Vanilla)
    Nylon Outfitters – Rosey Outlook (White/Green)
    Zaara – Mishti Tank (Ivory)
    Caroline’s Jewelry – Vintage Watch Key Necklace (White)
    Gos – Desire Ankle Boots

    ColdLogic

    ColdLogic

    Someone asked me awhile ago why I haven’t visited ColdLogic, and the truth is nothing appealed to me (until now). I don’t normally wear knee-length dresses, turtlenecks, or long trousers, so I’ve just been passing up the new releases. Finally, yesterday, the newly released Clark top (it’s mesh) caught my eye, cos I love the cleavage and it looked pretty great on. I purchased this top in White, and also bought the Mazza trousers (also mesh) in White to create an all White outfit. I could have also gone with the trousers in another color, they’re all pretty basic and will work with a bunch of things in my inventory.

    This may be the most mesh items I’ve worn in a single outfit — shirt, trousers, and mesh hair! I think that wearing mesh is less complicated than regular sculpted prims (you don’t have to re-position or mod anything) buuuuut, you have to be willing to mod your shape, unless the alpha was very accurate. Instead of wearing the Medium size, which I thought made my avatar look really bulky, I chose to wear the Small and reduced my body fat & breasts on the sliders. I didn’t want to make my avatar slimmer than normal, I just didn’t like the too broad shoulders on the Medium size.

    Visit ColdLogic

    What I’m Wearing:

    Exile – Famous for Nothing (Stefani)
    Fishy Strawberry – Lingerie Desiderio White (2 Strapless Bra)
    ColdLogic – Clark Top (White)
    ColdLogic – Mazza Trouser (White)
    G-Field – Flower Pumps “Eve”
    undefined lilies – dainty rain necklace (gold/white)

    Post Christmas

    Exile Hair

    Exile – Carolyn | Veronique | Jeanne

    Christmas came and went, but if Santa didn’t spoil you with everything you wanted this year, it’s time for a lil’ self indulgence! What better way to spoil yourself, than with these new Exile hairstyles? There are two new hairstyles for girls (shown above), three for men, and new textures released for a few old favorites.

    Maitreya

    Mmmesh! Maitreya released a bunch of new mesh clothing pieces and shoes recently, but I have to say my favorite is this Athena sweater. The fit is pretty good and the draped back is so sexy! I passed on the long mesh skirt, jacket (too bulky) and the leather pants (didn’t like the pocket, too low), but I liked the Athena Sweater and the Silk Neck-Tie Blouse! The shoes were also not very “me” but I totally see someone with a different style rocking those. What items from Maitreya did you buy?

    What I’m Wearing:

    Pink Fuel – Elly (Honey) Pure/nolash (Ltbrow)
    cheLLe – Cat Eyeliner (Black)
    cheLLe – Sparkling Eyeshadows (Pink)
    Exile – Carolyn (Vanilla)
    Maitreya – Athena Sweatr (Cerise)
    Mon Tissu – Lou Lou Denim (Light)
    Mon Tissu – Montsegur Pumps (Camel)
    &
    Art Dummy! – the edge of winter (furniture set)

    Flightless bird

    Laqroki - Ebba

    I went to see Breaking Dawn (loved it!) and now I have to blog this skin as a Brunette, for Bella <3 So if you want to recreate Bella Swan in SL, I would highly recommend getting the new Ebba skin from Laqroki. It’s stunning!

    Laqroki - Ebba

    I’m wearing the Ebba skin in Fair tone, but there’s also a new lighter tone called Ivory (perfect for Vampire Bella!!), so check that out if you’ve always wanted to go very light (lighter than the Milky tone). This skin comes with 5 lipstick, and neutral eye makeup. I also purchased the Brows pack — the default brows are lighter, and each brows pack has all 9 brows color included.

    Laqroki - Ebba

    What would Bella Swan wear, if Gogo dressed her? In something Pink, of course! I love the new Lycia Tank from Mon Tissu. It’s mesh, it moves, it’s fabulous. I’m also pairing it with the new LoLong Trousers from Celoe, also a mesh item and pairs perfectly with this tank top.

    Check out the new Mon Tissu & Celoe temporary shop for all the goodies

    What I’m Wearing:

    Truth – Clara (Treacle) new
    Mon Tissu – Lycia Tank Top (Rose)
    Mon Tissu – Lycia Lace Bandeau Bra (Peach)
    Celoe – LoLong Trousers (Makara)
    LaGyo – Adele Jewelry set
    Mon Tissu – Sloane Pumps (Chocolat)

    Celoe

    Celoe

    Join the Celoe group in-world to get this new Chelsea dress (in Champagne) for free! Celoe is the new brand from the talented team of LeLutka creators. The new Celoe main store, and also Mon Tissu main store will be housed on the Mayfair sim. I don’t know if any single sim in SL can handle so much talent, but we shall see!

    Have you heard of Standard Sizing? Some brands in SL will now create things in Standard Sizes, which is suppose to help people fit mesh better (if you happen to be sized pretty close to these XXS-Large Standard Sizes). I fit the M(edium) from this package pretty well except for some areas (boobs, body) buuuut…… I thought it looked kind of BULKY! So I modified my shape and squeezed into the S(mall). What about you? Which size do you fit with the new Standard Sizes?

    Also as a side note…. I don’t really agree that Gogo is M(edium). I’m petiiiiiiiiiiiite!

    What I’m Wearing:

    AOHARU – Hair Megan02a (Chocolate)
    Celoe – Chelsea Dress (Champagne) S
    Nardcotix – Esther Vintage Pump (Teal)
    LaGyo – Roslyn Necklace

    Wasabi Pills, Brrrrrr!

    Wasabi Pills

    I’ve secretly been hoping for some Winter hairstyles from designers (scarves, hats, earmuffs) and Wasabi Pills creator must have read my mind cos she just released this gorgeous Brrree hairstyle. This hairstyle has a scarf attached that includes  HUD to change 16 different colors & textures (some are stripes). I think a few of the colors stripes are Harry Potter themed, so people doing the Hogwarts RP would probably really love this hair.

    Wasabi Pills

    For weeks, I have been frustrated with the alpha textures on mesh hair not showing up properly with shadows enabled, so I kind of tossed a lot of the hairstyles aside until finally, last night I read the notecard that came with mesh hair.

    There seems to be a bug related to alpha textures in all mesh enabled viewers.
    This bug won’t let you see alpha textures on meshes so part of your hair can “disappear”. It should have something to do with the shadow feature and it appears to be random.
    So if you see that some strands of hair have “disappeared” just try to detach and re-attach your hair and the bug should fix itself (this worked for me and for other people affected).

    You know when a notecard is labelled IMPORTANT MESH INFO – PLEASE READ!! I never read those. I guess I should from now on, I will read ALL notecards, lol.

    What I’m Wearing:

    LeLutka – Natasha (Golden) Makeup 4
    cheLLe – (Blush) Everyday Blush 7
    Wasabi Pills – Brrree Hair
    d.Select – Cotton Lace Shirt (White)
    d.Select – Little Cotton Jacket (Olive)
    Fishy Strawberry – Lace Insert Jeans (Wash 1)
    Magic Nook – Sweetheart Necklace (Gold)

    Brie

    Brie

    Chocolate (Brown) is not a color that I wear often, so I thought I would try it today instead of picking something predictable, like Blush (Pink). This new Brie dress from Ingenue (available at Collabor88) has a mesh skirt attachment, similar to the Mon Tissu skirt that I blogged awhile ago. The skirt part of this dress is seamless, and so beautiful and easy to wear.

    Brie

    What I’m Wearing:

    Truth – Petra (Roots) Champagne
    Ingenue – Brie Dress (Chocolate) Collabor88
    SLink – Glitter Peeptoes
    Yummy – Simple Pearl Necklace Collabor88

    SLink Glitter Peeptoes

    SLink

    It was SLove at first sight when I saw these new SLink Glitter Peeptoes Pumps! These pumps are mesh prim feet+shoes, and includes four HUDs to customize size, nail colors, skin color, and change the color on the bows & shoe.

    SLink

    I’m really glad the multipack is scripted to change shoe colors so you only have to fit/size the shoes once, and let the HUDs do the rest. I did find it difficult to fit the shoe perfectly around my leg, but I’ve been having this difficulty ever since SLink shoes (that includes feet) ends higher at the ankle and is invisible inside. I really fail at this, but I did the best I could in the pictures shown here. These pictures are not Photoshopped, and as you can see, the shoe looks amazing! The “invisible line” is not visible unless you cam top down or from the bottom up… or if you’re able to size/fit it perfectly, there shouldn’t be a line at all (so I’m told).

    SLink

    A close-up of the SLink Glitter Peeptoes pumps shoe+bow

    SLink

    Check out some of the colors! Also, mix-and-matching colors is a breeze with the HUD. These are stunning and sparkly shoes, perfect for the holidays.

    Under my umbrella-ella-ella

    Rainy

    The title is totally cheesy, I know.

    After putting together today’s outfit, I needed a pretty sim to photograph in, so I visited Yse Ah’s blog. Her blog is an amazing resource to find nice locations for photos, and I use it all the time. When I saw her post about the Amia sim, I had to check it out.

    Rainy

    Just a couple of days ago, I saw someone blog a rainy picture that looked amazing. The rain effect was done with Photoshop, but since I can’t really do all of that (lack of PS skills), I decided to use the NODe umbrella, which is scripted with a stunning rain effect. YAY!

    Gos - Rigged Wellington

    Have you seen these lovely new Gos (Mesh) Wellingtons? I had originally wanted to re-create a Rainbow Bright costume using SL items, but I couldn’t think of a nice Rainbow dress, but I customized the shoes & wore some Rainbow socks anyway! These (Sheer) Frank Rainbow Amortentia tights from Schadenfreude are amazing but they lacked nice sculpted cuffs, so I borrowed some from my Maitreya Moxie Over-Knees Socks, and tinted it the same color.

    Gos - Rigged Wellington

    Gos - Rigged Wellington

    The Gos Wellingtons are available in 12 colors, but scripted to change Strap, Lip, Sole, and Boot color so you can create many different combinations.

    What I’m Wearing:

    Elikatira – With (Blonde 05) 70% off Sale!! going on now
    AOHARU – OffShoulderGauzeTunic (Daisy)
