Crayon Colour Challenge: Week 37, Wisteria

Wisteria

Wisteria

When this outfit was first released - I think it was the Pisces round of Zodiac, so back in February/March? - it was blogged everywhere, as it's just so pretty. I didn't blog it then, even though I bought it in all three colours, because so many people had already done a better job than I could.

However, months have now passed, and it turns out that Elodie in shell, from Evie's Closet, is a great match for the colour challenge, yay! It's also a great example of how a designer can blend mesh with other, older tools to really make something special.

I'll admit to recolouring the shell bra which comes with the dress - not because I'm a Cheaty McCheat, rather I thought their original white was a little too much contrast for the dress... Or maybe just because I wanted to make you look at my boobies. So there.

My free alt goes shopping

I know I haven't posted much free stuff lately (though you can always check my frees page if you're feeling strapped for cash) so I thought I'd send my alt on my mission and prep a very quick post.

She currently has 6L to her name (she had 8L, but I let her buy two recent dollarbie skins at Mother Goose) but came home with a sackful of stuff, so I should be able to put together another couple of posts.

The main part of this outfit is a group gift from Delicious - it's copy and mod, so you can tint it to any colour you like.

Free, cheap.... and a new skin from The.Plastik!

Today's post is frees and cheaps... including a very exciting preview of a new skin from The.Plastik!

For today's Lazy Sunday round, The.Plastik put out a previewer of what it seems will be the new skin line, Maelian. For the bargaintastic price of 75L, you can grab the skin (one tone only) which includes several tattoo layers, eyebrow shapes, and five pairs of eyes. Seems like more will be available at Skin Faire...in the meantime, don't miss the offer, which will probably be out for a few days and not just today. (There's a close up after the jump!)
