I have NO idea what made me decide to do this post! I really don’t have time for it. I have a bajillion others that I SHOULD be doing, but for some reason the green got a hold of me…and I could not help myself. Special thanks to my love, Vanish for doing the pic with me. You look absolutely DASHING, love! What a lucky girl I am! Happy St. Patrick’s Day to all!!!
STYLING NOTES
EL
*Dress: Cracked Mirror (CM) – Matilda Dress (green) (This cute little dress comes in 5 colors. They are dark shades, so if you are still looking for darker colors this season, this will do it! You can find this little gem along with a ton of other adorable items at a brand new event called: The Liaison Collaborative. It will run from March 15 thru April 10th and will be a bi-monthly event to rotate with a home and garden event. You can get all the details here!)
*Bangle: +:+WTG+:+ – **Dark Zone** bangle I (This is just the bangle of the dark zone set. It comes with TONS of other matching pieces and the stones have several different colors you can choose through a color change HUD)
*Necklace: +:+WTG+:+ – **Nights in the spring** necklace (This is the current Unisex group gift from WTG. It is a LOVELY piece and I am hoping that more matching pieces will follow!)
Hair: Analog Dog – crystal – FLEXI sunset, Mesh sunset. (I just LOVE the soft curls from Analog Dog! Queue Marlowe combines mesh with Flexi to give this piece the qualities of mesh that we love, while still giving it some flow. This is hair done right in my opinion! AND…all those curls! Just LOVE her stuff!)
Shoes: Eclectica – ‘Garden Party’ shoes-apple 2 (Eclectica is not usually known for their shoes but I just LOVE these. I have almost every color she makes in this set and the nice thing about the shoes is that she gives you TWO versions in each set. One with a dark background (I THINK it is black…I have a tendency to be color blind at times…haha) with the flower trim or the flowered shoe. I have worn the flowered shoe with this dress since the dress is mostly a solid.)
Lashes: Izzie’s – Eyelashes v1.06
Nails: Izzie’s – Metal Stripe Nails (Picked these up a LONG time ago, but I THINK they are still available at Izzie’s Mainstore. All of Izzie’s nails are SO nice and usually have a ton of color change options along with an entire SET of gloves to cover the system nails on your skin for a PERFECT fit!)
*Skin: Essences – Clover 05 *sunset* brown, Cleavage V2.0 *sunset* (This is Essences current entry at the Skin fair and it is LOVELY! Clover comes in 8 skin tones and has tons of options. I am planning on doing a closeup set of the skins so you can see how truly lovely they are!)
*Eyes: IKON Kaleido Eyes – Garden (L)
VANISH
Outfit: Bare Rose – Duke of the Forest Palace (This outfit comes WITH the shoes, 2 types of vests and 2 types of ties. It, like EVERYTHING at Bare Rose is exceptionally well done. The texturing is SOOOOO pretty! Everything that June Dion does just amazes me!)
Hat: I kept teasing Vanish about wearing a hat until he MADE ONE! I should know better….LOL You can find this hat on his website: OpenSim Creations
His hair is a freebie that he picked up a MILLION years ago…and his skin with all its’ tattoos is one he made himself. He sure is a talented guy!
Pose prop: Katink – St. Pat’s (This is ONE of the current group gifts from Katink. It has a different pose set in it…a couples pose, sitting down with beer. It is quite nice. I just did not want a sitting pose…wanted to show off our clothes a little more. So I used another pose from Katink, called “fash” so that we could stand in front of the prop. It is really nice. I am not sure if you can tell or not, put it has particle clovers that fall from it! SO cute! Katink’s group is currently free to join, but rumor has it that there may be a group joiner fee in the near future, so NOW IS THE TIME TO JOIN! Katink has tons of things to make your blogging and photography life easier. Be sure and stop by the store to pick a few things up!)
