The Inner Fashionista

The other day I got to thinking about fashion. Irl I've never been much dressing up; my parents, especially Mommy, are forever scolding me about the way I dress. In fact, when I first came to SL I was running around like a wild thing: barefoot, in shorts or cutoffs and tees. It was my baby girl who gave me a makeover and that in turn lead to me discovering my inner fashionista.

And for fashionistas SL, is to die for! Not only can we have perfect figures and look the way we've always wanted to, we can have as much clothes as we want at a tiny fraction of the price irl.

But there's something even better!
Fashion forward means nothing here with all the diversity. Individuality rules!

It is not only the diversity that makes SL the place of ultimate fashion freedom; because it is part of the metaverse, we are liberated from the limitations of rl physics. Haute Couture has become high fashion in its purest, wildest most extravagant sense!

Vive la difference!

Shedding the old skin!



















Hi, dear friend and reader! It's been a while, I know. But your Rainey's back :) So much has happened while I've been away.

The most exciting things are the new skins designed for Windlight! If you thought you looked good with the old client, you are gonna look so fantabulous now!






















The piccie above is the new Helen Tan Night skin from Insolence. It's photosourced and sophisticated, the kind of look that's perfect for clubbing and events. Camilla Yosuke's new generation of skins features different ethnicities and expressions.
Highly detailed and realistic, it's the way to go if you want or need a photosourced skin!























Gala Phoenix's as yet publicly unreleased Super Premium GP line takes artistic skins to a whole new level! The GP Luster Dew has a freshly scrubbed, natural look with plump kissable lips, wonderful for any and every situation. The perfectly shaped eybrows come with the skin, and the darling details like the tiny mole in the corner of the mouth are to die for!

So which one should you go for? The body details are uber hott and you're gonna be so smexy in either! It will depend ultimately on your shape, as each skin/shape combination is unique. I myself am extremely picky and the new Insolence and GP are the only two skins that satisfy me under Windlight. Some slight editing of your shape may be needed according to your tastes and preference. For Insolence I found I has to take the smile down to get the mouth to a shape I liked, while it needed no change at all for GP.

The Insolence 08 series of Skins are readilly available, while you can IM Gala Phoenix for demos of her new GP line. Either way you'll be to die for under Windlight!
