Beauty and the Beast

(click to enlarge)
STORYLINE: The Beast was cursed for turning a blind eye to those in need. Though the doomed prince's lesson had long since been learned, he suffered on in his monstrous form. He dared not show his hideous face. It was during these lonely years the Beast developed a love for roses. He spent his days toiling in the garden, nurturing and breeding them into masterpieces of horticulture. Why? Because if he himself was not lovely to behold, surely he could still bring beauty into the world with sheer will.

Tale as old as time, Beauty and the Beast. It's one of the best, and most loved of the fairy tales. This current round of Enchantment is the finale. If you haven't made your stamp rally run to scoop up the wonderful event-only creations for Beauty and Beast, you better get hopping! The last day is tomorrow. For more information, go to:  https://enchantmentinsl.wordpress.com/

It was fun to do my own take on the Beast. I went more toward a big lion look with the Alice Project Leah hair, BareRose Konkon legs, By Snow's Werecat eyes, and the [ni.ju] Dusk neko makeups. From Enchantment, I'm showing the cool wire and rose Beast Horns by May's Soul. It comes in either white or black, and has a texture change for the two rose groups on the horns. Love it. For a clever and original take on the Beast, C L A Vv delivers the Jagal Masque. It comes in metal and bloody. And it's a Prize! That's right, just buy anything along the Enchantment trail, wear your stamp card and get it stamped at each location, then you can head to the Prize area to pick up a goodie. (Be sure to only wear one stamp card at a time when you collect prizes.)  Maybe can't see it too well in this image without enlarging it, but I am wearing what I called "Bishie Sparkle" from the no. 7 Beast Rose Enchantment prize. It has a collar made of hearts and also fun the sparkle attachment.

From the current round of the Fantasy Gacha is the Reverie outfit. I love the details on the shirt! So cool, and belt, sash, holster, and gloves are also really wonderfully made. Guys, you need to not miss this round of the Fantasy Gacha. There are several seriously badass outfits for the men. ...Ok, enough talk, run hurry! *roars*

MWFW: Inside the Photographer's Studio 2


It was two years ago on April 30th, when my blog began with an idea of mixing two different styles to create something new: "Fashion Mash-up: Motley Crue vs Tomb Raider." Today, I'm going to do it  again! Gothic vs Hip Hop! This unholy mix was inspired by the thick Cuban Link chain necklace by Illmatic XY. It comes with a hud to change the texture from gold to silver, but it also included black. So that's what got my wheels rolling on this idea. lol The B-Boy shorts from SWaGGa are awesome! They're fitted mesh and come with a hud to change the textures on your peek-a-boo undies and pants. There is a matching Hip Hop hoodie SWaGGa too, be sure to check that out. The Cropped Sweatshirt by Illmatic XY comes in several colors. This loud Flamingo color is too fun, and it perfectly matches the Maiko hair by Truth. The heavy metal MechanizedCuff are by STONE Baubles for Men. Just in time for the summer are these non-rigged mesh sandals by Pure Poison for the Slink male flat foot. This nice pale skin is Knight silver by Kooqla. The backpack by Tableau Vivant is a past gacha no longer available, however the Retro headphones by Standby are still available. MensWear Fashion Week ends May 3rd.

Anime fans might catch my allude on the MWFW models for today. Blame Ayashi because her Kira hair also works great for the Mod style of this suit by Blvck Anchor. The coat has a hud to change the shirt and belt textures. The thick Kasha shades by Kumaki have skull details on the side, - very appropriate for the writer in the Death Note. To match the Tableau Vivant skin Kevin to the Slink hands, use the Tone 5 appliers.
