The Karma of India Nadeau

Structured Style

February 9, 2013

I have been wearing this outfit in Second Life for over a month now…because I didn’t want to do my pixel laundry.  Just kidding!  Really though, I seriously have been wearing this Michami Lana Brocade Cocktail Dress for that long. I have wanted to blog this dress since it came out.  I haven’t been in SL much in the past month, mainly due to illness, partially due to not feeling creative, and somewhat to do with not feeling like the photos I was trying to capture were doing these items any justice as to how pretty they are.

Starting with the dress…I think the structure is one of the best things about it.  It offers a lovely modern contrast to more of an intricate, rich, vintage feel texture.  It looks elegant and classy.

The heels were a more recent purchase.  Gos turned up the heat in the mesh shoe realm with an entire new line of sexy, sassy, glamorous footwear with an amazing skin matching HUD.  Trust me ladies, skin matching is easier than ever before with these beauties because it works in conjunction with a website that lists skins from SL’s most popular skin brands.  Achieving the perfect foot color is as simple as selecting your skin from a list and syncing the HUD after you have chosen.  You may then save your commonly used skin tones to the HUD.  For any skins not listed in the website database, manual shade matching is still an option.

Please note, in the above photo there is something funky going on with the ankle shading right under where you can see the skin of the mesh meet my skin.  While I have edited certain things in these pics (applied an action, added some lens blur, smoothed some sharp edges), I did not edit this glitch out in order to show the shoes clearly.  I believe the shading in the photo may have occurred because I may have worn a pair of the heels that was a size too small, and I could not get the large ones to rez at the time of the photo and became impatient (my other ankle looks great).  The larger pair does not have a noticeable line like this inworld for me.

So, I believe that the little line there is blogger error and the fact I was using a smaller size.  Oopsies.  Anyway, I so love the way these shoes look.  Plus, I don’t have to fight with trying to match my skin tone!

Blue Chic

October 6, 2012

FaMESHed for October has brought SL some lovely items this month.  One item of which really is a beautiful example of simple feminity–the Kennedy Mesh Dress by Rebel Hope.  This is the first thing from Rebel Hope I have ever purchased.  I love the classy style of it.  The dress is the type that can be dressed up or dressed down depending on how it is accessorized.

Also for this post, I am showcasing the newest release by Gospel Voom of Gos.  When I first had seen a teaser for the Equestrian Boots I knew they were a must have.  I went to the store twice before they were on sale being the eager beaver that I was.  Gos footwear never disappoints, and the texture of these high steppers is truly amazing!

Pose Fair 2012

April 19, 2012

All shopping events, expos, and fairs have their own unique draw and flavor.  These organized affairs allow designers to come together in one area to show off their new creations, and allow us a first look at some new exclusive content that hasn’t yet been placed in store.

I really enjoy these events, but I admit, I am so directionally challenged it’s not even funny!  I find myself getting lost in even the best laid out places.  I usually have to re-orientate myself with the landing point and familiarize myself with what direction I have already explored.  Anyway, aside from my own personal compass being wacky, the layout of this year’s fair was well done and the design was a nice expression of artistic minimalism.  So, whenever I was getting my directions mixed up I could easily cam around and see things clearly without obstruction.  It also helps to have the handy dandy list of SLURLs at your fingertips!  This is the third Pose Fair and so far the largest at 120 vendors!

Needless to say, that is a lot of poses to take in.

The fair began April 15th  and will continue until April 30th.  There is also a photo contest going on for fair shoppers to showcase their skills.  Just upload your images showing off your Pose Fair items to the official Flickr Group.

Now on to my first purchase at the fair.  I chose this camera pose and prop set by {what next}.   The poses are contained by the camera props.  There are five of them, and you simply wear one of the five cameras and you are posed!
