Even demons need to study.
Today I decided to go with a comfy relaxed look. I hope you like it as much as I do.
✫ DRESS: The Natalie Dress Limited-Time Recolor (TSS Version) is the current Saturday Sale by Just BECAUSE. The recolor comes in six vibrant colors for 75L each or 400L for the fatpack. The dress is fitted for Maitreya Lara/Petite, Legacy, Perky, and Kupra. If you would like it in a solid print, you can find the original release toward the back of the store. The original release 18 gorgeous solid colors for 249L each or 1,299L for a fatpack. Remember to try the demos first.
Just BECAUSE creates high-quality original mesh clothing for women. I can not stress how much I love Just BECAUSE's designs. I have been following/blogging Just BECAUSE since 2012. The quality has always been top of the line, with significant care given to the styling and hand-drawn textures. To top it all off, Just BECAUSE has always kept it reasonably priced. Most places I found when I was younger have outgrown my price range and, if we are honest, style. But not Just BECAUSE; it just keeps getting better and better.
✫ BOOK: Vae Victis created the Miser's Haunted Tome as a group gift. The group is free to join. The book comes with animations and glows. Simply haunting! Vae Victis is amazing! They are a must-visit for any roleplayer.
✫ JEWELRY: The Saira Jewelry Set is from CAZIMI's new jewelry line. These were made especially for the Designer Showcase. They are copy and mod and are customizable with 8 metals and 20 stone colors. The set includes the necklace, earrings, Tikka, Hair frame (in two styles & Hair Droplet. They cost 395L.
✫ HEAD and BODY SKIN: The lovely and versatile Aggie Skin is by Mila. It is a free group gift. The skin is BoM and fits Genus and Lelutka Evo. It consists of the head and the body in one layer and comes in a light and dark version.
✫ FOREHEAD HORNS: The adorable Geit Horns are by .:Soul:. The horns are unrigged, materials enabled, and feature 24 horn colors and a hud with skin textures. The horns are BOM enabled, and the skin mounds can be hidden. There are 8 color packs (Geode, Seasons, Crackle, Stone, Marble, and Ram) you can buy individually (249L) a color pack or in a fatpack (999L). Each pack comes with 21 new textures to customize your horns. Don't forget to join the .:Soul:. VIP group (350L), you can get a 15% discount on every purchase, as well as free group gifts and teasers on new releases, updates, and store sales.
✫ TAIL: Atomic created the Demon Tail. The tail is animated via an AO and made for female avatars. There are 15 animations made for most actions of the avatar. The tail is customizable via a HUD. You can adjust the base and tip of the tail separately.
✫ EYES: I am wearing IKON's 'Hope' Eyes in Crimson (M). 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.
✫ HAIR: I picked up the lovely Olivia hair at Doux for 500L (basic pack with deluxe hud). Olivia is a fitted mesh hairstyle; the basic package includes 1 hairstyle and the fatpack color HUD. The deluxe hud consists of all styles (3) 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.
✫ HEAD: I am wearing Lelutka's Avalon Mesh Head in this post. At the time of this posting, this head costs 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. At the time of posting, the Maitreya Lara Mesh Body costs 2,750L. This is the mesh body I wear the most; I really like the softer curves, and I find most outfits are offered in their shape. 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.
✫ SHAPE: My shape is the Brittany Skin Shape by Velour. I received it with my purchase of the Brittany Head Skin for Lelutka Evo X (799l) (not worn in this shoot).
✫ POSE: Eternal Dreams Poses Tallulah 02 non-bento pose.
✫ PHOTO LOCATION: The photo was taken at the Home and Garden Expo.
✫ 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 6,699L on the Marketplace.
