Art School Dropout

Whaaaat? 2 posts within the same month from Autumn??!? Yes, this is probably a sign of the coming apocalypse, but I am actually writing two blargh posts. Probably you’ll never hear from me again after this as all my creativity will have been completely lost. On to the show!

This delightful ensemble (picture me sipping tea out of a tiny dainty teacup with my pinky out) is from Tres Blah. You know that girl, Juliette Westerburg? The one who is making bazillions of lindoleans at Armidi? Yeah, well her first shop is pretty much awesome too, there are some great vests, dresses, scarves, bags, all kinds of fun things. I’m wearing ‘Painted Glory’ and oh what a glory it is. There is a layered effect tank, jeans, and even some gloves that give your fingers that lovely, “I’ve been busy being an ARTISTE” look. Very cute. I’ve paired it with a scarf from Tres Blah, called the knitted scarf in cupcake. I kinda love scarves, but I tend to only wear them with lots of other layers in RL, so I thought it would be fun to put with a tank. You should definitely check out her shop, there are some great and funny tees there, I haven’t taken of my ‘the internet is for Lovers’ shirt in days.

Hair and bag are by Gritty Kitty. I think it’s no secret that I have a total fangirl crush on Noam Sprocket. I was at his shop a week or two ago and he was there and on the inside I was all “SQWEEEEEE IT’S NOAMMMMMZZZZ”. Then he teleported away and I was sad. Probably for the best that I didn’t run up and start washing his exalted feet or something. Cause, you know, that might be weird. So, the hair, is called Creative, and look! It has paintbrushes, how much perfection is that? The bag is Markup & Style, and it has a buncha texture change options for the front. It looks like Noam is also going to release a special painty bag for the Creator’s Stamp Rally, so if you don’t already have a card or two get thee to Gritty Kitty on the double!

My hawt pink skully shoes are from Kari and I kinda lurve them. They’re versatile (well as versatile as pink high-tops can be) and the best part is I can wear them with my jeans without having to worry about the hem messing with the top of the prims. I also ended up getting the fire hydrant, it’s colour-changing and has 3 different poses by Torrid Midnight. It’s perfect for any grungy decore, and fun for photos, for sure (alliteration, how I love you)!

Am I ruthed?

I decided to take up Alaska Metropolitan’s challenge. So in answer to the age old question: “Am I ruthed?”

Yup! You know… I think the biggest problem I have with the ruth shape (aside from not having *nearly* enough ass) is how wide-set her eyes are, but with the right makeup, I think that can be overcome. Enter the Gala/Curio skin ‘Mismatch’ that Gala was kind enough to put freckles on for me.  My god, these skins… seriously, I haven’t taken them off since I got them. They’ve totally replaced my previous ‘me’ skins. I cannot talk about them enough, the nose, the makeup options, the shading…. And.the.freckles. They are soooo close to what RL freckles look like, some darker, some lighter, not exactly the same size. They’re awesome. AWESOME. Go buy all of them. I’m at 13 and counting, and I totally foresee getting more. Gala has a faboo deal where you can buy 8 skins of *any* shade or makeup for 5k. Now. I shouldn’t have to elaborate on what a great frickin’ deal this is. But in case I do…. THIS IS A GREAT FRICKIN’ DEAL! Seriously, any shade? Any makeup? Could not be any sweeter.

Ok, I’m gonna stop humping Gala’s leg for a minute to talk about the outfit. I wanted a simple beach bunny outfit for Ruthy, so I chose the Lala Foofoo Ring bikini in pink that debuted at the Lingerie Expo, and the top is the gauze Cover-up. Very much something I’d wear in RL, if only the beach in Vancovuer didn’t make me freeze to damn death. Alas, I can dream.

The hair is from Truth, I believe it was released as a dollarbie but is now on for regular price. But you’d better hurry because he is retiring a buncha stuff and has marked down all hair and clothes. Clothes starting at 10L, and the hair is 50L for a regular 3-colour pack, 150L for the multi-colour pack, and just 350L for the fat pack! It’s until further notice, but you should hurry nonetheless.
