Ex-shoes me? Where did you get your shoes?

We can always use more shoes right ladies? CandyMetal has some cute mesh pumps over at this week’s Acid Lily collection.

While I like mesh heels, sometimes the colors can be a bit tricky. Huds are easy to use, but there are so many different shades in our skins alone. I use Color Cop to find a close RGB.

First I open up Color Cop. It’s a super small window that stays open, so I’m able to read the numbers I get without switching back and forth. However, you’ll need to have Basic and Atmospheric Shaders checked in your preferences box.

Tutorial Color Cop First Step

See the super tiny window? It’s very handy. None of the hud’s presets worked for my skin, so I used the dropper to get an approximate match. Usually people recommend you get the RGB above the avi ankle bone or on it. Since I wanted a good front view, I dragged the dropper to the shin right above the shoe’s mesh ankle.

Tutorial Color Cop Final

Yay! It’s much closer to my skin tone. Not perfect, but I don’t like to run around in mesh heels really because of the variation in windlights. I use a bright windlight setting and low graphics to run around in. I love how bright windlights make us all so pretty. However, the feet’s tone works for my pictures. Done!

Troll Patrol

Happy Christmas Eve and Acid Lily Monday! It’s not too late for Christmas shopping and that means you can shop for yourself too! Acid Lily has a brand new collection out for your shopping pleasure. Bitch Tales Troll Hunter is camouflage with wings so you can remain incognito, but quickly fly and swoop down on sl predators. It’s a complete ensemble so comes with boots, stockings, and blindfold as well.

Bitch Tail Troll Patrol for Acid Lily

BT’s Troll Hunter outfit is actually perfect for all those flatter bots out and about. There has to be a person behind the keyboard right? While trolls and bots may be different, they are equally annoying. I actually came across two flatter bots. So far, I’ve only run across two scripts. I wasn’t aware of this until a google search and came across Iris Ophelia’s blog, but I did talk back to first avi as though were a normal “person.”

And on and on…

Blogs are powerful when sharing information, so it’s worth it to do a little bit of research in case something is too good to be true or so weird it can’t be normal.

Check out BT’s Troll Patrol at Acid Lily, but beware of strangers asking for money. Actually beware of anyone who steadily asks for money. If someone wants something badly enough, he or she will work for it. Happy shopping!

Waiting for Prince Charming

I’m hoping to catch the eye of my Prince!  LIV Glam’s Xavierre Gold Mesh dress, part of  Fi*Friday’s sales list, is all about glitter and animal prints, so definitely an eye catching piece. The slim pencil skirt gives you sensational curves! I’m leaning against Co*Motion’s pose prop Once Upon A Time, Waiting for Prince Charming. It’s available for a killer price at Acid Lily. It holds 5 poses and is a steal at 69L.

It’ll only be available for one more day at this price. Acid Lily starts to change the collection on Sundays. Happy Shopping!

Did you survive December 21? The world didn’t end, but it sure is cold! I celebrated this day by ice skating. It’s my new hobby.

About Last Night

I’m so so so sleepy! Another holiday down. I made sure to have an awesome Thanksgiving just in case the world does end in December (I don’t think it will…at least I hope not :p). Hope all of you in the states had a wonderful Thanksgiving too! Or are you already gearing up and ready for Black Friday sales? Some equally good deals await you in SL too! Sassy’s Poet blouse is actually cropped, so you can bare a bit of tummy. After Thanksgiving’s dinner, well that was the last thing I needed, so LIV Glam’s Winter 2012 Rhino pants were the perfect thing to add.

The pants are part of this Thursday’s 55L sale, and it’s a complete outfit, so check it out. Acid Lily’s collection will be changing soon, so might want to head down there as well. It’s a fabulous shop that changes its rotation weekly, so always something new. Happy shopping!

Required Reading List

Even.flow’s Yingythingy is a well read avi! Her Bookworm collection represents all your favorite classics, and maybe one that isn’t a classic per say, but who doesn’t love Stephen King? The cute little mesh dress features an argyle print and the dresses come in a variety of shades. I’m showing Little Women and The Raven.

Bookworm’s style allows you to layer with shirts or stockings. After all, it is a bit chilly out. Actually it’s the perfect weather to curl up with a good book!
