Cazimi – Get Ready with me!

Hi hi!! Today I am going to share a look with you that is matching the season as well as the beautiful new dress that my brother, Lord Winter Jefferson, the original bratling of SL (someone give the man a trophy please), got me the other day. It’s fun, it’s glamourous, it’s… sparkling! and I wanted to make a contrasting look to go with that. Bold all over!

So today’s base is another newly updated to BoM skin from Mila, Sato. I love how sassy she looks on my Korina head from LeLutka. Have I ever mentioned I love skins that have a bit thinner lips than the original SL UV? I mean, yes, they are a nighmare to find lipsticks for that do not make your lips look bee stung, but yeah, I am not a fan of the Kylie Jenner just came back from Killer Filler trip-look. So Sato it is paired with Magika’s Billie hair. Sabina from Magika has recently updated her hair again and has worked het magik on solving the alpha interference issue of hair. Her newest styles have been updated with it, and she has the script out in the store for you to drop into her older styles. Caveat: you will have to turn on ambient lighting for it to work, and for some weird reason, it doesn’t work on ALL her hairs… but on most of them it works like a charm.

I’m rambling, right? Good! As long as I have not lost you on the way :). The eyebrows are from the LeLutka HUD, so no BoM, and the Juvel eyes come from Arte (or A R T E, as it used to be spelled)

Whereas a lot of old layer clothes are outdated and not up to current SL standards anymore, this is not the case for Luxuria’s lingerie. I know they are nowadays mostly known for their adorable stockings, but I do miss the time that Ceciia made some of the best lingerie on the grid. And she released hers always with classic clothing layers as wel as appliers, so HELLO Bombshell body suit, how are ya?
I kid you not though. I have always continued wearing her underwear, on appliers, rather than mesh underwear because of fitting issues under clothing. So HI CECILIA ROSLIN KITTEN PETION… MORE LINGERIE PLEASE!

Are you ready to see the Party version of today’s GRWM?

Dramatic, huh? So i switched out of my Billie hair and put on my Ivy wig, also from Magika. Yes, I know it’s way longer than Billie… I guess I got extensons when you blinked, mhmm-kay?
I love it because it unhides my pixie ears from Swallow!
For my face, I applied… yes, you’ve guessed it right, Alaskametro‘s Beauty Guru contour! and because I wanted a stark contrast look, I didn’t go for any blush, which would have softened my face.

For my eye make up, I went with Clef de Peau‘s Blu eyebrows, which is actually from a really old 2016 skin of the brand, but the eyebrows still are beautiful as well as Cazimi‘s smoke eye shadow 01, which is a gorgeous smudged smokey black, blending really wel in my upper crease.

My lipstick is from Izzie, from the Matte Love collection. I used the dark grey here and added a hint of brown to make it darker still, yet not completely black. Yes, Izzie‘s make up layers are modifiable! ❤ ❤ <3.To complete lthe look, I added one of Izzie‘s moles from the Beauty Moles and Cheek Freckles set and after applying setting spray liberally on my face, I only had to slip into my new Eiffel Sparks dress from A Breakfast Conversation. This is a shop I lterally had never heard of… but they do have some awesome stuff. Not all is my taste, but it looks really well done!

Added the black Bombshell seamed stockings from Luxuria and, not visible on my photo below , but still gorgeous, Gos‘ Irina zipped pumps, currently out at Uber

It is that he’s my brother.. but anyone else with a comment like this would get the glare of death and be ignored. I DO NOT LIKE POP ART
But hey… call it leverage in the ongoing sibling rivalry, I’m Liechtensteining it up in this post, and next time I think of some ridiculous challenge, I’m totally going nag him until he caves in and does it!

This is today’s blank canvas. I am stil wearing Mila‘s Sato from the other day on my LeLutka Korina head, with Alaskametro’s light Beauty Guru brows and Izzie’s chin dimple. In RL I would never ever shoot a selfie showing myself this bare, but dang, my pixels look fine! My eyes are the default grey ones from the LeLutka HUD.

My hair is Lily, by Exile and my henley is from Vinyl. Liechtenstein on my mind, I am posing in front of 7‘s Union Jack because… well, no reason at all actually.. I just liked it as a backdrop 🙂

Bear in mind, I am NOT A SKINNER! but I did want to pay hommage to the iconic style of Roy Liechtenstein with the gridlike faces of his heroines, so I went into photoshop and started to draw dots. LOTS OF THEM! Well actually, I did one row of them, and then a whole lotta copy & paste and merge down occurred! and then I uploaded it to SL and put it on a tattoo layer and it looked like crap! Way too big! So back to the drawing board… Rinse & repeat that serveral times before I got the below result which made me.. well, not happy, there really is no content creator lost in me… but at least I felt I could use this and not look like a total idiot.

Or maybe I do… a dotted idiot! Anyway, it was fun getting out of my comfortzone and do this totally different look.

There is a LOT of make up going on in here! My eyebrows are actually 2 copies of the same layer from Just Magnetized, the Perfect brow set 08/01 because the dots came through too much with wearing only one layer. Luckiy, you can keep layering with BoM!!!
Same story for my contouring. I am wearing all 3 blended layers from Alaskametro‘s beauty Guru contour set to make it actually show on my face!

My eye make up is Zibska‘s Zeta 06, layered with Alaskametro‘s Tightline eyeliner 07. and then I used the heavy lashes from LeLutka‘s HUD and the cheat of the day, the tears from said HUD as well! My lipstick is actually a combination of 2, namely Pink Fuel’s Classic red lipstick and Cazimi‘s Bombshell Reds 02.

The Nadia hair from Exile is pretty awesome, and allows for some tinting. I adjusted the yellow a bit to make it more popping, more like the primay yellow than the one that Exile uses. The original Oh, Jeff…I Love You, Too…But… painting from Liechtenstein shows the girl wearing a black spaghetti top, but here I had a massive issue, not for the lack of black spaghettitops in SL, but my lack of skills to make the dots work on the full body! So I needed something with a turtleneck, and preferably a high one too! Which I found in Osmia‘s Mona cropped sweater, currently out at Uber. Oh and the phone is a 21st century liberty.. and it comes with the most obnoxious and hilarious AO I have had in a long long time: Selfie or Belfie by Tuty‘s

So there you go, Jefferson! One pop art inspired GRWM! You owe me one!
