Of Juiciness & Sisters

My sisters and our family did some fun things this past weekend as a family, a party, a halloween haunt and lots of shopping. All of us were not there at all times and of course I missed the Rhodes-Lescher side, but it was an amazing time over all.

At one point my sister Ash and I found ourselves alone, always dangerous (lol) and we were at the vanity sim. Our conversation went like this...

Me: Oh, I love that jumpsuit, but I'm afraid it's going to make my butt look enormous.
Ash: Oh , I bought that. I thought the same thing. But people can just enjoy my juiciness.
Me: That's good enough for me *buys*.

So, that's how I ended up in this jumpsuit by Scandalize. It really is awesome. You get two versions with sleeves or without, and ombre or plain. And those strings, let's just say they were popular. Ahem.

The black has pink! ombre so of course I had to buy that color. This is just at my home land, nothing special, The deck is part of a house by L2 Studios. If you have not been there looking for builds, go now, do not pass go, do not collect 200 bucks.

The gazebo you see a piece of there is by Atelier Visconti

The shop for AV happens to be right next to Wasabi hair so if you land at the  hair store, go right or follow the beacon to get there.

The chaise and umbrella in the background is by Chez Moi, one of my favorite "couple" furniture shops.

The planters are by Ariskea and the window boxes you can barely glimpse are by Myth. I tend to mix and match and I'm sorry to say that the pool and deck hadn't had time to fully rez and I didn't notice, blah, eep! Trust me when I say it's awesome.

Now back to the jumpsuit!

Did I say amazing, because yes amazing. Girl look how good this looks!

I am wearing the new Truth group gift "Batty" with this and the Lucy Choker necklace from Kunst and I put on a nice pair of high plats  and I was good to go.

This is just gratuitous cleavage now, lol, sorry not sorry.  The plants to my right are from Hive and the Deck and pool with chairs you can now see properly is from Trompe Loeil

And no I did not take any booty shots! Wow I am failiing a bit at this blogger gig. One last shot of my face because I like my face. Also you can see the choker in a little bit more detail as well.

LaQ Sandy Bento Head - Tropical Glow time

I've been wearing the Catwa Lona head for a long time now, practically since it came out which I am sure is longer than a year ago. When I came back to sl, I got a new shape, new skin etcetera for it and that was my makeover. However, I do like to change looks from time to time but I find that 5k pop every time with Catwa to be prohibitive. I'm disabled irl and on a fixed income and sometimes that 20 bucks real life is hard to come by.

So, I started considering LaQ heads a while ago though I hadn't seen the right head for me yet. I did go ahead and buy the hud when it was on sale just to have it when the time came. If you don't know, LaQ has a great system where you purchase the hud one time and it works with any of their bento heads. I like this also because it means things like your preset colors for hair base are universal from head to head, even makeup looks and animations are saved and can be used on any head. The heads themselves are only 1500L which is a much less painful pill to swallow.

So enter Sandy. She's a recent release from last month's Uber and now in the store both skin and head.

I'm wearing the Sandy skin applier with the Sandy head and the brand new NextGen body appliers. I couldn't be happier with the result! In my humble opinion, I think she's absolutely beautiful and makes me look beautiful too.

Unlike other heads, LaQ heads work with system eyes and have a unique eye fx to give your eyes and face more life. I ran right over to pick up new eyes from Ikon in my trademark purple to wear with this.

I'm wearing lipstick by Pink Fuel made for LaQ heads (size B) in the Sparkle and Shine set. And eyeshadow by Izzie's also made for LaQ heads. My hair base is by Siiix called Yemenese. The omega version worked perfectly for me.

My eyelashes are also by LaQ, the Glam02 lashes available at the main store.

I am wearing a shape by West End called Sarah made for the Sandy head. I've tweaked it quite a bit for my own aesthetic but I couldn't have gotten this look without that starting point. ♥

My absolutely beautiful hair s by Phoenix hair. It's called Mishon and is the new release for Fameshed Go. I really love these big beautiful curls. ♥

Now on to the rest of what I'm wearing. I've been a fan of Scandalize for some time, their designs are often fresh and unique and sexy and the color palette is varied and vibrant. I buy fatpacks as much as possible, that's how much I love this brand's clothing. Also the group gifts are very generous and always stunning.

This dress really is a great example of the quality you can expect with Scandalize. I wear Maitreya body and I couldn't ask for a more smooth and perfect fit, yet I could still wear a mesh panty underneath it without it showing through. The patterned studs on the smooth dress texture is really amazing and as I said above the color palette is wonderful.  Here's a look at the full length dress and shoes.

Girl look at my booty! Like I said the fit is wonderful and look at how smooth the patterning of studs is over the surface of the dress in both pictures. The silhouette and style of the dress is also very flattering.

I'm also wearing the matching Diamande shoes, you can get both at the new round of Shiny Shabby. Below is a better look at the shoes which again fit perfectly and are made beautifully.

Finally, as usual, I am maxed out on jewelry so I'll start from the bottom and work my way up. I'm wearing a butterfly anklet on both sides by Avaway. On my hands is a ring set by SpotCat and bracelets by Supernatural.

My armlets are also by Avaway and are called Cindy. My necklace and earrings are by Zuri's Jewels and I splurged on the elite set v3 since opals are my birthstone. I'm weairng the magic pixie ears and bindi by Swallow. Lastly my nail appliers are by Cazimi. I really enjoy these and have several appliers from this brand, the colors are great and their nail pack comes with several appliers all packaged together so I can apply omega to my Empire coffin nails and maitreya to my toes all from the same folder.

The little twinkle you see on my body is my Stripper Dust by Cynful. I love it, sparkles on my body <3
