A Princess in Tuscany

1-a-princess-in-tuscany-sm

I am a fan of the store Knick Knacks, but I had never explored the sim before. Pass through the courtyard and you are in the middle of the Tuscan countryside. It is a watercolour of hills, crumbling buildings and flowers. It is the perfect place for a princess to wander.

Princess Aurora, in particular. The Aurora dress by *Just BECAUSE* for Uber is a collaboration between mother and daughter. Annie Melson’s 15-year-old daughter designed the dress and Annie created it for Second Life. Together, they are AnnieRose. And they have created magic.

Magic fit for a princess in Tuscany.

Waiting Out A Sunshower

Out for an afternoon stroll in my oh-so-prettyness, I am met by an unexpected sunshower. Fortunately, I was able to duck into a convenient walkway to protect my satiny dress.

The Glam.Dress from Fawny, along with the elegant New Delhi heels from Essenz and the glitzy Crystal Love Choker from (Yummy) are all from the January edition of BishBox.

They’re all beautiful enough to save from the rain and all wonderful reasons to make sure you sign up for BishBox.

Not Really A Bitch

1-not-really-a-bitch-sm

I can sometimes be bitchy, but I’m not really a bitch. I try to be gentle and kind most of the time. My bitchiness comes out, though, in the face of meanness or downright stupidity. Sometimes it’s best to just lay back and watch the foolishness – it is far more entertaining and much less likely to produce frown lines.

This is the first real view of my take on the shape for the Bento Simone Mesh Head from .LeLutka.. I had the original, so while the discount was nice (wear your Simone 1.5 or 1.6 head when purchasing and receive the full purchase price of the original back), it really was the expressions that sold me. I was a bit worried about the pointed chin, but after playing with sliders for a couple of days, I finally came up with a facial shape that I like. What sealed the deal was the Luna LeLutka Head Applier from *League*. It was a bit of a trip down memory lane trying on skins to find a face that I loved with my shape. With pre-Bento mesh heads, you pretty much knew that any applier you tried would look good, as the shape of the head was going to be incredibly close to the original. With the freedom of customisation allowed by Bento heads, it’s like it’s 2012 again! Luna worked really well with the changes I made and I’m incredibly happy with the final result.

I am featuring two more items from the December round of BishBox – the Bitch necklace from Kibitz and one of my very favourite gifts from this round, the Oregon Boots from Essenz. There seems to be no end to the goodness from this box!

For a splash of colour, I threw on the Izzie corset from Apple May Designs. It is an older release and can be found at the main store. Since it is an applier, it works very well for tucking in or layering. Don’t forget to shop main stores for older gems in the rush to wear everything new on the grid.

That’s just a suggestion, not an order. I’m not really a bitch, you know 😉
