Drama Queen VS The Girl Next Door

Drama Queen VS The Girl Next Door

Bebae decided to celebrate Valentine's Day by releasing an special edition collection of skins, these skins will only be available until the 25th of February, so you'd better hurry! cuz when that date comes they won't be for sale ever again. You can get the skins in 4 different skin tones: Creme, Cinna, Caramel and Coconut.

Each skin tone comes with two make up options: red lips or pink lips. For some reason red lipstick always remind me of my friend James, because he likes to take pictures of me with a red lipped skin and make me look like a bitchy telenovela villainess. Which gave me the idea of using the red lipped skins with a really dramatic look while on the other hand, the pink lipped skins with a demure and cute look.

The Girl Next Door

As always what you can expect from Bebae is present in these limited edition skins, the incredible shading, the realistic elements and great detailing. I particularly liked the realism of the nipples (not being shown here sorry, the demure side of me won that one) and I fell in love with the shading both body and face are impeccably done.

Geometry: Take 2

Geometry: Take 2


This look has pretty much the same structure that my previous post, (skirt, top and belt). For some reason I can't get the geometric trend out of my head, so here's my second attempt, specially since the first one started as something and quickly morphed into something else. Also this outfit is perfect to hit the club scene and being Friday well, it seems to be only appropriate.

I went for a black and white contrast, I love it and it always works! Ok so this post doesn't reflect the full idea of the Geometric trend but it was the base of inspiration (that explains the polka dots on the shirt and the figures of the earrings). I didn't want to add another pattern to the skirt cuz I don't want to overload the look so I used just the necessary dose of circles and dots.

Geometry: Take 2

Hope you guys like it!

Geometric French Craze

The initial idea for this post came from the Marie Claire website, in which they described a fashion trend for the upcoming spring based on geometric figures (striped dresses and polka dots were basically it). So I began my task of finding such dress, after a while I desisted and decided to work with what I had in my inventory, the striped skirt from Emery came to mind immediately and it just grew from there.

Geometric French Craze

Then I went to TRUTH being that an awesome sale is going on there, and got this hair which comes with a beret. When my friend Brooke saw me she said I looked french that's why I added the french part to the title of this post (I suppose a beret does make me feel kinda french... what a cliche). Anyway I finished the look with some shades I had seen Dahlia wear on one her posts which I thought would look perfect for this outfit, a belt and a big necklace. This outfit is just the result of mix n' matching compulsively but well I kinda like it XD.

Won't be defeated by yellow!

Won't be defeated by yellow

I'm finally back after a break and some vacations, and I used to go shopping like a mad woman. I couldn't help but notice that yellow was all around which was incredibly frustrating being that well I love the color but I just can't wear it in rl (it makes me look sick I blame it on my pale skin but oh well). Luckily those issues can be solved in sl in a minute! so I'll just get rid of my yellow craze through sl I consider it a therapy.

I found this stunning dress at Bianca F and gave it a little of a rocker edge with the fishnet leggings and the black boots. Finished the look with some fierce earrings from plus.

Hope you like it! Glad to be back!
