Strange Pixels

I adore a good textile pattern in SL, so these new Olive sweater dresses from Ducknipple had me frothing at the ads.  They come in a variety of stripes and colors, so you should definitely check them out.  I love Ducknipple for their lovely textures, and for their prim clothing and accessories that always fit me perfectly right out of the box.   Belts, especially,  take a good bit of fiddling of linked prims on my part before I can wear them, but what you see here was edited not one bit.

This dress immediately reminded me of the ubiquitous, beloved Old Boots from Shiny Things.  I marvel that with all the advancements in sculpts we have now, these boots can still hold their own and hold it well.  How many other pairs of shoes from years ago would still look good today?

Also take note - fabulous new skins from Nomine!  The Mosaic line is a departure from what I’m used to from Nomine,  as they bring a touch more smooth realism.   I personally love both styles, but get a hankering for each at different times.  And of course these skins come in the Nomine skin tones and makeups that you know and love - including some previously Limited Edition makeups!  I’m particularly in love with the lips; just look at how soft and plump they are.

I’ve been listening to a lot of Dresden Dolls and Jill Tracey lately.  Then I picked up one of the awesome new feather boas from Schadenfreude, and this look just kind of fell into place.

I’ve recently discovered the skins from Cupcakes, and I was delighted to find that they suit my av quite well.  They have a smooth  porcelain coloring, and lovely dark eyes and luscious lips.  I went a little crazy buying them last night, so I will definitely be featuring more in future posts.

Just a simple black dress, but I love the design.  Hood up or down options, nice sculpted pieces.  And if skirtums ain’t your thing, you could leave the center prim off and wear it as a cute shorts jumpsuit.

I just love this “Moth Cellar” accessory set from KOSH.  It reminds me of a story I read once, in which an ugly god painted his face with the dust from moth wings to make himself beautiful.  But I can’t for the life of me remember the name of the story.  Anyone?

When I get a new release notice from Sinistyle, I usually TP over before it finishes rezzing.  These new combat boots were not a disappointment.  Displaying Krius’ usual magnificent texture work and attention to detail, they quickly rise to the position of Mah Verrah Favorite PixelBoots.
