Lolita

Hi peeps,

Really loving this last round of Collabor88 - all things pin up, 50's and milkshake! That said, I only ended up using a couple of items from C88 for this post and the resulting look, with the pigtails and high waist shorts reminded me a little of Dominique Swain in the film Lolita. Hehe. As usual recently, I'm wearing my Wowmeh mesh body - the latest update (v3.1) has made some big improvements, not least the waay better fitting of my Slink hands and feet. Ok, on with the details...

Lizzie and Jane

Greetings, reader!

Oo, I got in such a fluster when I saw this months round of the Seraphim Social as the theme is 'Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen' - one of my favourite books of all time. I love all things Austen (and Bronte and classic novels in general) and it was so much fun to see all the Austen and Regency related goodies that were available. I got totally carried away planning about a million different pics I could do though, of course, my usual time limitations meant I only manged to do the one photo after all. Perhaps I'll find time to 'create' a Darcy and Bingley at some point and do a fun wedding or ballroom shoot. Hehe. 

I love these two gowns by BCC and Croquet - very simple and effective. Perfect Regency day gowns. I spent quite a lot of time trying all my various skins to find ones that would be suitable for the era, that is, not too tanned and obviously void of any make-up. I didn't really want to buy any new skins but I think I managed ok in the end using the lovely Mothergoose skins that I already had. Lizzie may look a little too tanned but she is outdoorsey so we'll just imagine she's been spending a lot of time walking backwards and forwards to Netherfield. 

I made a little set, the details of which I will list below, though I modded a lot of stuff I had. The climbing flowers by Spargel and Shine are divine - these were the only new things I purchased for this photo but I'm definitely going to be using these in my summer home. Oo, and being a bit Austen obsessed I have, obviously, recently watched the movie 'Austenland' and its a lighthearted bit of girly escapism, thoroughly enjoyable for any fan of the books and Regency period. Perhaps a little obvious in plot but worth a watch if you love Austen . Even better is the 'Lost in Austen' ITV mini series from 2008, the heroine is MY kind of Austen fan!

The Sorceress

Hi sweeties,

Well, I intended these pics to be out for Halloween but, as usual, RL has been keeping me busy so they're a few days after the event :-P.  I had so much fun putting together this look - it was awesome being all gothic and witchy. I really enjoyed being able to go to town with the sparkly effects during editing too, and I love the way the pics have turned out. 

This dress from Fellini Couture is amazing. It's the first time I've shopped at the store but I'll definitely be back when I'm looking for a glamorous gown. Glam Affair treated us to a cute Halloween skin and don't even get me started on the awesomeness of this head dress. There's been so much cute Halloween stuff around recently I'm already planning another spooky post soon...

So here's the stuff....
