RAIN

Another lovely skin that debuted at Skin Fair. "Rain" has subtly stronger features; a straight nose, and thick straight eyebrows. The look is a bit assertive, but still feminine. And lately the Essences skins have been accompanied with lipsticks options. Loving them!!



I thought this bold skin would be fabulous with a bolder coat. The David Heather Funnel Coat has made its way back to his Main store. I love the modern assymetrical line.



And these shoes are taken from a brand new collection that opened a couple of weeks ago at Fate Island. Damien Fate has a new shoe line including both men's and women's styles that come with a texture-change and tinting HUD so you can match them to any outfit you like. I adore this kind of flexibility. Thank you!!

FUTURESCAPE

I just adore the concept of this suit I found over at FutureWave. Very high-fashion. The package included versions intended to fit a few different mesh bodies (which I am not wearing) and a fitted mesh version, but no "Standard Sizes" versions. Personally I usually prefer the fit of Standard Sizes, but today I am wearing the Belleza jacket version and the Maitreya skirt version. (Demo always.) Love it!



I am convinced that in the future as our world becomes more consumed by technology and modernism we will all feel more nostalgia for the natural world that sits mostly unobserved outside our windows today. I felt uncomfortable with Bauwerk's lovely techno furnishings until I slipped in a treasured painting from one of Whiskey Monday's gallery sales. It softens it so well.

GOING QUACKERS

Do you mind if I do a few more Fall outfits before I swing full-speed into Christmas and winter stuff? I'm still trying to pretend it's not November. Life is chaos right now and I'm honestly not ready for winter.



Now in the close-up photo below, I am particularly pleased with these new Aitui ears. They come with a HUD that has a generous selection of skin color presets and also a color picker for your tinting pleasure. One of the presets just happened to be a perfect match with this skin. And the shape is lovely isn't it?
