I’m sick, so I’m afraid you won’t be getting much more than credits and photos I did over the weekend for the next few posts. I do want to bring your attention to the awesome Venomous dress from *Just BECAUSE* *JB* Venom Gown for Collabor88 this month. And I wanted to do justice to the Round Lobby Sofa from Warm Animations – Round Lobby Sofa at November’s The Crossroads Event. I teased with it in a previous post, but here it is in all it’s luxurious glory.

Ella

1-ella

Surprising even myself, I switched from my Elysium Candace skin to a completely different brand. I love the (optional) freckles that dot the nose and cheeks of Ella, the latest Catwa applier from *League*. It comes with several different eyebrow colours, eye shadow choices and lipsticks, including clean versions if you want to wear your own. The skin applier gives you four cleavage options, plus nippleless versions of the same. The shading on the skin is realistic, with the highlights giving you a lovely glow without being overdone. I meant to pick up the Sunkissed tone, but when I got home I realised I got the Suntanned colour instead. In this daring white dress from United Colors, I realised it wasn’t a mistake at all. That doesn’t mean you won’t be seeing the Sunkissed shade in the near future, but for now, I am content with my happy little accident 😉 While this applier was created for the Catwa Annie mesh head, I think it works just beautifully with Tumble, and I even gave it a try on Alice, with pleasing results.

You can find Ella at the *League* main store, along with a variety of mesh body appliers. The dress is available in several colours at The Liaison Collaborative, as is my hair by “”D!va””.

Them Apples

1-them-apples-sm

For those of you on the grid who love the Blueberry Butt (which is probably 98% of females and 107% of males), meet the Apple May Bottom. I admit when I opened the pack of Taylor Pants from Apple May Designs I thought, “Oh, a pair of pants. Big deal.” And then I tried them on. The first thing I noticed was the lace waistband and I squeeeeeed just a little. Then I cammed around and saw the back. And I fell in love. Just look at that bum! This is a pair of pants that should NEVER be worn with a long shirt or jacket! Doing that would be akin to putting a drop cloth over the Mona Lisa.

And these pants are dressy. They are textured in a soft, clingy fabric and have a flared bottom, which covers your shoes (sorry, that didn’t make it past the editing). Paired with this adorably soft and feminine top from TETRA, the open back leads the eye to the highlight of the masterpiece: The Apple May Bottom.

You, too, can have this perfect backside by visiting the Apple May Designs booth at Mesh Body Addicts through December 10. Go ahead; you know you want it!

Ladies and gentlemen of Second Life…how about them apples?
