Awaiting the Green Beer!

---

Who is counting down the days to the yummy green beer? I know I am! Nothing like a good St. Paddy Day celebration! Today's feature designers are excited too! You can tell it from the incredible designs they have made to help us celebrate. Let's dive in!

✫ Dress: The One Love Dress - Shamrock is one of five great gifts Entice has created for the FabFree St. Patric's Day Hunt! The dress is fitted for Lara, Petite, Legacy, Hourglass, Kupra, and Freya sizes. You are searching for a neon rainbow, check out the hunt poster at the front of the store to see an example of it. The hunt runs until the 25th.

I have been a fan and follower of Entice for years. Entice specializes in women's original casual, formal, and fantasy apparel. They have something for everyone's style. They have an in-world group (free to join) to keep you abreast of store updates, sales, and special events, as well as group slap boards for free goodies.  

✫ BEER TRAY: The 100% IRISH green beer is by El Patio Inc. I picked it up on the Marketplace for 25L. It dispenses a beer to anyone who clicks it. What a fun way to spread the St. Paddy joy!

✫ BAR DECOR: Sahi Designs created the Coppinger's Irish Pub Bar (1500L Adult, 750L PG). The bar set comes with everything you need to set up a realistically themed bar in your home or business. The set includes a bar, 2 chair styles, booths, bar stools, 3 table styles, wall hangings, and topiaries. The furniture is texture-changing, with six color styles to choose from. It is one of the fantastic sets on sale at the Home and Garden Expo.

The Home and Garden Expo is the largest and longest-running event of its kind in Second Life. Its main goal is supporting Relay For Life through its fundraising efforts. The event runs until March 20th. There are 9 sims of unique Home and Garden Designs to explore, a 10L hunt, special events, and an auction!! See all the details on their website. 

✫ LIPSTICK:   The kissable lips are from CAZIMI's  Kiss Me EvoX Lipstick shade 4, 100% (250L). This set comes with 12 lipgloss colors and a gloss enhancer in three options. CAZIMI is an excellent cosmetics designer. They feature tons of makeup (eyeshadow, blush, eyeliners, concealers, and more), mesh and applier nails, eyes, and lashes. You can't find a better designer for your cosmetic needs.

✫ EYESHADOW: For the eyes, I layered CAZIMI's Xenial EvoX Eyeshadow (Shade 3, 100%) with their Catty Eyeliner (Shade 4, 100%). Both sets consist of 12 BOM layers in 3 opacities for Lelutka EvoX heads only.  

 ✫ HAIR:  I picked up the lovely Allison hair at Doux for 500L (basic pack with deluxe hud). Allison is a fitted mesh hairstyle; the basic package includes 1 hairstyle and the fatpack color HUD. The deluxe hud consists of all styles (4) available with the hair and color tint abilities. You will need to buy the basic pack for the hair before you buy the deluxe, as the deluxe is only a hud. The hair is in the basic package.

✫ EYES: I am wearing IKON's 'Spectral' Eyes in Grass (L). IKON's eyes are affordable at 150-170L each, and if you join their in-world group, you can get a free set of eyes. Ikon's Eye sets come with IKON Mesh Eyes that are HUD controlled. You also get appliers for Lelutka, Omega, Genus, and Catwa, as well as BOM Layers in multiple eye sizes. I have worn IKON eyes for years. I highly recommend them because they are affordable and have a massive range of colors and styles to choose from.

✫ SKINS:  The lovely Hekate Skin in Choco is by  Unknown Hare. It is available in four pretty skin tones at the Happy Event for 450L each. Each skin tone comes with EvoX ear tattoos, head skin with and without brows, a brow shape, and freckles. The body skins are sold separately for 150L.

✫ SHAPE:  My shape is the Celeste Shape by UpBeatZ. The Celeste Shape is on sale currently available at the Happy Event for 250L. 

 

✫ HEAD: I am wearing Lelutka's Avalon Mesh Head (3,990L). This head can support  Evolution (EVO) and Evolution X (EvoX) skins. The Avalon set comes with a Head, Teeth, Mesh Eyes, Elf Ears, and many bonus goodies like hairbases, face light, multiple teeth accessories like braces, ear piercings, and samples of cosmetic tattoos. It is Bakes on Mesh Ready (BOM) and comes with a default shape, Head and Ear skins in BOM layers, and skin, brow, and eye applier. Avatar complexity for the head alone is approximately +5738 (Head, Teeth, and Eyes). Lelutka is my go-to place for mesh heads. I love their style, quality, and ease of use for their huds. I own several of their heads. There are demos available for you to try before you buy.

✫ BODY: Today's body of choice is Maitreya's Lara Mesh Body. The Lara Mesh Body is Bakes on Mesh Ready (BOM). The body includes Bom add-on parts, a save stick to save your configurations, Bento hands, with hand poses and hand AO built into the HUD. The body has the 5 default foot shapes (Flat, Low, Mid, High, and Ballet). The HUD comes loaded with 22 Glam Affair skin tones, and BOM layers are provided. There are five nail shape options and 19 nail polish options. Alphas are controlled via HUD. There are over 200 possible selections. The body comes with mesh lingerie made by Erratic and BOM Layers by Zaara. The Maitreya Lara Mesh Body costs 2,750L. If you prefer a petite or flat look, Maitreya has add-ons for the Lara Mesh Body for 499-599L each. The Lara Mesh Body, the Petite Add-on, and the Flat-Chest Add-on have demos available to try before you buy.

✫ PHOTO LOCATIONS: Sahi Designs' shop at the Home and Garden Expo.

✫ POSES: The top photo was taken using the Waitress Pose set by Focus Poses. It is 120L on the Marketplace. The headshot was created using Eternal Dreams Poses Lindsay 07 non-bento pose.

✫ LIGHTING: For lighting, I use LUMIPro. LUMIPro is a HUD worn by the photographer that controls all aspects of lights worn by the model or self. The photographer can adjust position, color, radius, and falloff. You do not need rez right to use LUMIPro. The built-in posing system controls ten models independently without needing to rez for pose stands. You can pick up a copy for 6,6995L on the Marketplace.
