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””.

How Does An Angel Hide Her Tears?

She always cries in the rain…

I went wandering on the weekend, looking for a suitable location to show off the new rain hat by JfL Hats. I stumbled across several photos of H22O on Flickr, and upon arrival, I knew I had found the perfect place. Designed by the same creator of one of my favourite now-gone sims, 2304 Rain, it has the same haunted yet awe-inspiring feel that had me lost for hours simply exploring, taking photos and soaking in the atmosphere.

It is definitely worth a visit.

Also worth visiting is the upcoming event, The 24 Square. Mark your calendar; it runs from September 5-13 and you can find this beautifully made hat by Johnfrancis Laville, one of six colours in the box. It is Materials Enabled, so it perfectly captures the appearance of being wet. It is available in limited quantities, so don’t miss out.
