One of the brands I always buy during the weekend sales is Technofolk. I love their style, even though it is very much not me. I rarely wear their stuff, but I’m in awe with their aesthetics and creativity! So today I decided I will go out in a Technofolk outfit!
However, I have started the day with Guapa‘s Sol skin (weekend sale) on LeLUTKA‘s Avalon head. My hair is by Lueur (also a weekend sale item) and I am wearing COCO Design‘s Ribbed sweater, which is ALSO a weekend sale item. Yet,I am not feeling cheap :D. When I say weekend sale, it can be any of the many. I lose track!
However, with a fierce Technofolk outfit, I felt I needed a fierce makeup, and Identity Faces happens to have out the Love Me collection for the weekend sales, and the smokey glittery eye and glossy burgundy lips are perfect, especially when I added a little contour by Dotty’s Secret (Blended 2, 50%). Quite a difference, eh?
And there we are. 1:100 children are psychopaths? Sounds reasonable when you look at the amount of psycho (and socio-) paths in the world. I think it may actually be a little more!
So all items are by Technofolk here, from the coat and the shirt, to the pants and the harnesses. Only my Lena ankle boots, which you can’t see here, but fit the look very well, are from Gos
We’re half way through the week! and following my last blog, I kind of stuck with the Ice blue, but this time for my hair! I notice I do this a lot, there usually is some kind of link between the blogs, either by a colour I use, or by a brand that I am wearing. The ice blue shade of Doux‘s Somi hair is a good start to work with! I switched heads today again as well and I’m wearing Ceylon. Have you heard that LeLUTKA, for Black Friday from November 25 through 28, will have ALL heads discounted to 50%? That’s a pretty sweet deal, right? I am also wearing the Fierce eyes from Avi-glam and not entirely unimportant, The Yeri skin from Avarosa, currently available at Kustom9. The white tank top is from Giz Seorn, Riley
My make up today is from a new to me store, called Holloway and they have some beautiful lipsticks out, as well as a couple of eyeshadows/eyeliner varieties. The colours I am wearing today are from the Powerful Collection. Pleasantly surprised with how well this fits me! My lashes are from Pritty, and I added a little contour from Nar Mattaru‘s Hela skin, which is tintable, so I could give it an earthy tone to match the rest of my make up. My hair in this make up pic is Wendy, from Doux.
Under the Lottie Look shirt set from M.Birdie, scored on the marketplace in a lucky instance of a reasonably priced old gacha rare which is not a scam (I couldn’t find M.Birdie in-world anymore), I’m wearing Coco Designs‘ pleated white leg pants, and Reign‘s dainty sneakers. My padded little handbag, which I have a similar of in RL in bright orange is from DDL, named Torn. Caveat if you manage to find the Lottie set on the marketplace, it’s made only for Maitreya but i maned to make it work really well with the Legacy body I’m currently wearing.
I don’t care that you can nowadays get your pumpkin spice latte already when it’s barely September, Pumpkin season for me is between mid-October and November. One might argue from before Halloween through Thanksgiving, but me being Dutch, we don’t celebrate either. I do however love pumpkin, both the taste of oven-roasted pumpkin, drizzled with some olive oil, thyme and a bit of coarse salt and the rich deep orange hues they come in
So pumpkin became the base of my look for today, I am wearing LeLUTKA‘s Briannon head today, which I love for its youthful features and I am pairing it with Avarosa‘s Max skin. The browless version, because today’s brows are from Dazed, I am wearing their Somber eyebrows in ginger AND light brown, because combined they have a bit more definition than apart. I am also wearing Avarosa’s freckles, which came with the Max skin, and they are so lovely and soft! My eyes are from Avi-Glam, Wonder Eyes from pack no.2, and my lashes are my usual default LeLUTKA lashes. I’m also sporting a lovely little chin dimple today from Izzie’s.
My hair is Paty, from Doux and I am wearing Fashionably Dead‘s Long Baggy Cardigan while deciding what makeup to put on to get ready to leave the house.
I didn’t touch my base today, but I added some contouring from Dotty’s Secret, the blended contour 50% nr. 2 to be precise, and also the BOM eyeshadow is from Dotty’s Secret, Lane 5. On top of it, I am wearing, also by Dotty’s Secret, one of the Liners Vol 1, in Lelutka EvoX HD. For my lipstick, I went Surgarose, picking a fiery red from the Poppy palette. Clothes today are all by COCO Design. I am wearing the white top from crop top and skirt set and over that, the Teddy Fur jacket in a warm brown hue. I’m in for a good pair of jeans any day, and I love these Wide Leg Ankle jeans because they let me show of my KC Couture Dasia boots so well! In my ears today, I am wearing the light gold Monies earrings by ZOOM
Good morning dolls! Another day, another Get Ready With Me! The buy-in from content creators on BoM is a bit slow. Or maybe I just want it all, and I want it NOW! but for the moment, it’s pretty limited what is being released BoM/tattoo layers included. Even some of the newer skins are still not BoM compatible, so please make sure to demo!!!
But luckily, there are some trusted brands have been consitently releasing including tattoo layers since it became clear that LL would be implementing this, so meanwhile I do have a nice selection of make up to work with, just the number of brands is somewhat limited!
So today I started out with LeLutka‘s Aida head for a change. I adjusted my shape a bit to bring out her nice, delicate features, and paired it with Avi-Glam‘s tender eyes in a very pretty dark brown. Today’s skin is Glam Affair‘s Lala 006C and yes, I have added Izzie‘s chin dimple to my basic look!
Under Truth‘s Betsy curler hair, I am wearing Izzie‘s baby hairs hairbase and my tank tops are from Blueberry, the group gift tank top which I am wearing under Salt & Pepper‘s WTC tank and, only now that I am zooming out in world to check on the credits and stuff, I see that they actually do not work well together. You might get away with black on black, or white on white.. but Cloud under black… yeah no bueno! But oh well… it works for this particular shot, right?
/insert chit chat on skin routine and the layering of serums and creams to reduce pore visibility and lines because HA… pixels do not age, do not suffer from insomnia AND they don’t care of you eat chocolate! But let’s pretend for the sake of this blog that I, once again, have gone through the works, and just finished priming my skin to start some serious layering when suddenly I realised that I literally had no idea of the look I wanted to achive today. Something contrasting to the one from the other day, that much I knew.. but for the rest, I just started to experiment and see how stuff worked together!
After I changed my skin for the Lala 006 E (browless) skin I started layering some eye makeups. Ended up using 3 different layers as well as no BoM eyeliner. Again… a little cheat because LeLutka allows for it!! Thanks Lelus!!
So this is what I used: Alaskametro‘s Editorial eyeshadow 05, followed by Zibska‘s Zeta eyemakeup 12 and also from Zibska the Olya eyeliner 15. Both grey/blackish layers from Zibska, giving the editorial eyeshadow base layer a fierce and pretty dramatic depth that I’m digging! So it stayed! I finished my eye make up with Veechi‘s Pin-up liner for LeLutka and changed the dainty LeLutka lashes for some more pronounced Flirty lashes from Avada for LeLutka. My eyebrows are brushed, filled, gelled and modeled into Izzie‘s Cora eyebrows!
On my cheeks I added the Viera 06 blush by Zibska which is defining without adding a lot of contrasting colour to my face. and for my lips I was delighted to find out that PinkFuel had tattoo layers hidden in her pack of Dazzle me lipsticks. I went for Spice this time around because… well, fall season, and contrary to the look from the other day, I wanted to go full out Glam Bam this time! So no muted lips, but a dramatically glossy pout.
With my face done, it was time to take out the curlers and brush it out a little bit and hair.. it became Truth‘s new Shadow hair. Since releasing Betsy, Mr. T has updated his textures at least once, but actually I think twice.. but luckily this soft medium brown is still in the collection. Improved in texture, but the colour is pretty much the same. Oh well, one could make a case for good hair care and styling products here, right?
Finishing today’s look, I decided to wear Miss Chelsea‘s Popi top, currently out at N21 and COCO Design‘s choker, from the One Shoulder Top & Choker.
All dolled up, I decided to NOT go out, but instead grab a bag of crisps and veg out on my couch, watching some youtube archaeology videos because.. yup, i’m that girl!
Get Ready with me!
