Exploring

It seems I'm always running out of interesting places to take my blog pictures so I did a google search on the most photogenic places in Second Life. I've been to a few of these sims but somehow this one got passed over. Innsmouth is described as an abandoned 1930's New England town and I found it so hauntingly beautiful that I just had to show off the goodies I picked up today.

I work weekends so I feel like I'm always missing out on the good sales that go on during the weekends but tonight I was lucky enough to make it to the Lazy Sunday ones. I fell in love with this pretty dress from Black & Blue Outfitters but when I took it home and tried it on, I couldn't adjust it to my body type. (Not the designer's fault, I'm a noob when it comes to these things!) Happily, I remembered that I bought these cream lace shorts from League on Friday so I thought hmm, I wonder if they match. I tried the top of the dress with the shorts and found it was a perfect match but that the outfit needed some color so I paired it with this awesome denim jacket from Action.

After that, I dropped by CHIC's Fashionably Late event and picked up this creamy skin with dark eye makeup from Haut Monde called Camden. I believe that it's a preview of her next skin line and it fits right in with what I can describe as a dewy look that seems to be the normal of Teresa Republic's skins. I love dark eye makeup because I'm usually after a dramatic look and Camden works so well for me. I topped off my look with one of the newer hair releases from Angel Hair. I usually work the long caramel colored hairs of hers but I decided to experiment with this chocolate brown short style and can definitely say I'm impressed with Angel's short dos too. Well, it's five am here and I've been up since five am the night before so it's definitely time for me to hit my pillow. Be sure to check out these fabulous stores!

P.S. My poses are supposed to be for shoe shots but look how cute they are for the rest of my outfit. You can snag these at Magnifique Poses because who doesn't love a pose that makes both your outfit and shoes look good.
