It’s official! My inventory is NOW over 50K!! No, I’m not bragging. I’m not proud of it. I have been trying for the last several months now to keep it under that number and have done so successfully, but during my hiatus, things just kept piling up. And of course, while I may not have blogged much, I NEVER missed a good sale!
So now it is up to me to get in there and dig through all of it and see what I got, what I will keep and what I will cut. I STARTED that process yesterday, but during it, LOOK WHAT I FOUND! This is a cute little dress from M&M. I have seen their creations coming across my computer screen, but I have not taken the time to look at them and when I did, I found this little dress and loved it! It is mesh, of course. But more than that, it does not feel like the mesh that I am getting so used to, the kind that sticks to you and NEVER moves! No…this little mesh dress had some REALLY nice creases, pleats and bunching up of material, just the way the material would fall in real life if you wore it. And that was it…I loved it! It did not hurt that it was blue “crochet”. There was just something about it that felt “retro”. And I liked that too!
Of course, as soon as I tried it on I knew that I wanted some jewelry from Ear Candy to go with it. I LOVE Ear Candy. As I have always said, I would SOOOO buy their stuff in RL! And this set is color change….definitely a plus! It also has really cute matching ring that I had worn initially, but I think got “booted” when I put on my nails. (Note to self: remember ADD for most things instead of just double clicking to wear!) Now. . . what skin to wear?
Looking through my massive inventory I came across the Cassandra skin from Izzie again and this time I tried the pale skin with freckles. WOW! The freckles are SO realistic and I must admit I felt a little like Lara Flynn Boyle when I wore it….haha. I have really been impressed by the looks of Izzie’s skins. They are so fresh looking. I don’t know how else to describe them. They are just so “clean” and perfect for that young, all natural look. But don’t think that Izzie’s is just a skin store. In addition to her lovely skins, she has jewelry, nails, clothing, shoes, accessories…a little bit of most everything and all so very well done. So be sure to check them out!
I hope I got a large enough shot for you to get a good look at the new group gift eyes from IKON. These eyes are called “Bleached Blue”. And the good news is that there are MORE bleached eyes, in 6 different colors! Get the fatpack with all 6 colors and of course, Ikon’s 5 sizes each for 599L. There is also a new Sunrise set called “White”. And it is the palest blue imaginable. REALLY nice for pale skins and summer looks. Stop by his store to see ALL the new releases!
I am loving my new pledge to keep picture editing to a minimum. And I admit I DID touch up a TINY bit of things in PS, but nothing that weighed me down. And then I added a couple of filters from filter forge and voilà! I hope you like it! Until next time…
