Date Night

Published on by GraziaLeave a comment

I’m getting ready to go on a date with Mac tonight, and I’m actually really excited about it. It’s been a good while since I’ve been asked out to go dancing! Chivalry is not dead! Woooo!

For the occasion, I am wearing Tres Beau skin Harper on LeLUTKA‘s Raven head and with Tville‘s Glorious eyes. My locks are from Doux, their latest release: Danielle and I am sporting Tres Blah‘s Tori sweater while I’m getting ready!

I have kept my makeup simple but effective. Eyeshadow, liner, and blush all come in the makeup add-ons pack which you get with your LeLUTKA heads. Everything is modifiable, so I tinted the pink eyeshadow with a bit of yellow to make this lovely salmon color to go on my eyelids and I did the same with the beige lipstick from the HUD to make it a warm coral. on top of it, I have added the glitter mesh addition which comes with Raven for a bit of sparkle. I switched my lashes for the heavier ones which are also in the LeLUTKA HUD and there you are: instant party makeup! In case you had not realized it… unpack those extras that come with your LeLUTKA heads, they are REALLY worth it!

Since we’re going for some tango and salsa, I have put on this sexy lil’black number from Tetra, named Valentine. Tetra has recently been updating some of her items to Reborn as well, so go take a look if your previous purchases are among them if in the meantime you have switched bodies like I did! As it’s a bit cold out today, I put on the black fur Roksana stole from Antaya, which does not come in a Reborn edition, but this is the legacy one, and it just fits well. A girl should always keep her independence on a date, so I grabbed this little clutch from DDL to store a lipstick and my credit card and keys and on top of it being a useful item, it’s also stinkin’cute, right? My other accessories are from LaGyo, I snuck into Kustom9 cam sim earlier today and LaGyo has these lovely Ciao Bella hair flowers and earrings out. Since my date loves orange, and it’s really difficult to find orange dresses made for Reborn which also match my fashion taste, I instead focused on it for my jewelry. LaGyo‘s items are modifiable, so I could play a bit with them to get the right tint that I wanted!

And there we are, the full look. Just before heading out, I slipped on the Snowflake pumps from Baiastice, and practiced some moves on the tunes of Gotan Project. What do you think? Good? Not over the top? Let me know!

Graphic Shirt

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.

Ice Blue

I’m still colour-inspired. Ice Blue is another hue that I absolutely love. It’s not for me in RL though, my skin tone gets grey when I wear that icy pale shade of blue. But luckily, in SL you look good in anything! So today’s starting point is Ice blue. And this happened because I was playing with Foxy‘s new hair which will be out tomorrow at Kustom9, which has a headphone build in, and it comes in a couple of lovely pastels, among which this greyish soft blue.

I can’t do without my earphones, I usually wear my Airpods pro, which have noise canceling. I NEED that. I walk around with either those, or my loops (noise-reducing earplugs), a lot because I am so crazy sound sensitive. That doesn’t mean I don’t love sounds. I do, but on my own terms. For instance, when I am putting on my makeup in the morning, I love listening to the Solomun remix of Leonard Cohen’s You want it darker

So anyway, here we go! As mentioned, Foxy‘s Pulse hair, worn on LeLUTKA‘s Avalon today, combined with Not Found‘s April skin, which will also be out for Kustom9, which starts every month on the 15th. The only addition to this lovely skin, are the subtle cheek dimples from Izzie‘s. Today’s eyes are the Legend eyes from Ikon, in the colour Fjord. My shirt (and Bra) are Ison‘s, the Sahari Wrap shirt dress.

Once I got my pixel skin routine out of the way, I used the Wet collection from Identity Faces for today’s make up. The almost iridiscent white of the under eye tint, gives me a super rested look! The lipstick is soft and creamy, from the same collection. When I make these no make up/make up pics, I sometimes cheat a wee bit with my shape, when needed I will slightly adjust the lip ratio, to not have a major bee stung effect on the lipstick version. I did that here too. SL make up creators tend to slightly overdraw the lips, which makes sense, because they will fit on more skins like that, but creat make up artists, I LOVE you for making more feathered lipsticks which stay slightly within the lines!! My make up is finished with a slight dusting of blusher by Evermore, which was a gift at some point. Did a quick blow out, and now my hair is Doux‘ Clover

And here we are, simple, clean and comfy! I am wearing Just Because‘s Yolanda oversized top, which doubles really well as a comfy dress, and I have paired them with Blueberry‘s Maria Boots. My lovely knot choker is by Sigma.

That’s it folks, I’m out the door! See you later!
