Queen of the High Forest

Hellos!

So, I have been repeatedly asked why I do not dish out a post every day currently. Two reasons:

1. I passed my final, final, final exam on monday. 11 hours of exams, essays, showlessons and oral exams after 1,5 years of traineeship. I was really damned busy.

2. I do not post every random stuff some store happens to release, especially not if it is the usual template stuff. I do use template stuff at times, but only if it is really well done. I rather go for quality than quantity. I wait until I really love an outfit and then blog it.

I got a few outfits up my sleeve, so whenever I find the time the next days, I’ll blog.  Oh and if you want to listen to true greatness, listen to this:

Woodkid – I love you

Here another proof that you can mix and match mesh-outfits. :P

Think about all the stories that we could’ve told

Hey fashiongals,

Kumi is out!! Mochi Milena of Pink Fuel finally (!) released her Kumi skin. You can choose from eight different skintones and each package (1100 Lindens) comes with four eyebrow versions, two make ups in each pack as well as four different eyebrows (red, blonde, brown and dark), two different eyelid-version (one for the asian, one for the caucasian look) and a TON of awesome lipsticks. I am a big fan of Mochi’s lipglosses and lipsticks, so thats a giant plus for me. Given the bunch of skins you get in only one package, the price of 1100 Lindens is very reasonable imho.

I personally am SO HAPPY that she reworked her skintones. Not too long ago, I pointed out the yellow tint on her old skins on Flickr, and she gave me a bunch of skins of hers to review them and write down suggestions what to change. If THAT’S not customer service…then I don’t know. I am amazed to see that she actually took the things that were said (not only by me of course) to heart and reworked them and in my opinion, the result is really nice. I especially like the darker tones, which are not as ashen as most skins without going into the orangey tone-scale.

I like the body though I personally prefer a bit more of a natural look to the boobies. However I think teh skins are of a high quality and at first sight I couldn’t spot any seams or oddities. The shadings seem fine, too.

Also, I think the face is VERY pretty…but also very innocent. It might not be the most fitting skin for my pretty but kind of badass elf…what do YOU think? :) I do think I’d have to redo the shape a little? I also was so greedy that I accidentally bought a wrong tone….but now I am happy with it anyway.

And here’s my outfit for the day:

REVIEW: INNOCUOUS

Today I am reviewing the released items of a new store: INNOCUOUS. It is my first real review-post so be patient. :) The pants have been released now, too!

Below you can see my avatar in their items, in several variations of colours. The creator of these items wants them to be versatile and combineable. First and foremost, they are geared towards role-players, but honestly I do not think that people who only wear casual clothes should shun these. The pants I would totally wear in rl as well, same with the bolero. They are super cute.

Colours and textures

These are only a few colours of those offered. Corset, cowl and bolero come in five different colours, the pants come in eight colours. I really like them, very classy and even fitting for role-play without looking boring. The textures are highly detailed and unique. I love the shading on both the pants and the bolero.

I am especially happy that the fabrics of these items are fitting for roleplay. Linen, leather, cloth… it is perfect. If you have a closer look, you will see that the buttons, lacings and pockets on the bolero, corset and pants are not drawn onto the texture, but rather little mesh-items themselves which gives them a real 3D look. I think the wrinkles on the pants look especially realistic. Overall, I am really happy with the attention to details the creator has shown.

Shape and fitting

All items (besides the daggers) come in the usual five standard sizes: XXS, XS, S, M and L. In my case, my avi almost always fits in either size S or M. On the pictures I wear the pants in size S and the corset and bolero in size M. If you want to layer meshitems, you obviously will have to choose bigger sizes for the items you wear OVER other items.

In this case, the pants, as you can see on the photo, stick a bit through the corset on my avi’s right hip. While moving, that happened a lot. However, this has more to do with me than with the creator: I refused to wear XXS pants to prevent the corset/pants from sticking trhough, or I could have worn the corset in one size larger, but I refused to make my boobs bigger to adjust to that. So, I went with a bit of clashing mesh which, in my case, will be hidden under a belt anyway. I just think outfits with no belt usually look boring. :)

Overall I must say the items fit really well. Only some minor things that I noticed:  For the cowl I needed to wear an alphalayer from one of my LeLutka hairs, otherwise it would have shown on top. But I told the creator about that little problem and she said she’ll add alphas to the cowl-vendors, too.

The corset will at times stick through your boobs or not work well with crazy animation, but that’s how it goes with pretty much every underbust-corset that I own. I think it is more of a general rigging-problem than a problem this specific item has.

There is also a little gap showing between my legs. Not invisible-ponyrider-worthy, but it is there. Honestly, I have that with pretty much every single meshpants out there and if I want to have it less, I just wear the pants in size M and it looks better already, but then I have to hide that part under the belt, because pants size M and corset size M don’t go well together on my shape. I do think that my shape is partially at fault as well, because my elf has a big bum, so well, I’ll deal with a small gap. And those pants look really hot from behind, too! ;)

I am especially happy about the length of the pants: perfect for boots. Finally I have mesh-pants than I can wear with boots, woohoo.

So, what’s the result?

I think as a summary I can say that despite some minor things that more than liekly will eb ironed out soon, these items REALLY impress me and I hoped this review was helpful for you. If you have any suggestions, please do not hesitate to tell me. :) I am always open for helpful advices.

Arica. :D

It’s a new dawn, it’s a new day, it’s a new life for me

Just a quick statement, as I have heard that apparently some people claim to be me, which I personally wouldn’t care about if some creators would not sometimes send out stuff for me to possibly blog it. The ONLY three avatars (unless otherwise stated in the post itself) I use for this blog are Arica Storaro, Siamo Tedeschi (for freebie/cheapie posts) and Iorveth Resident (my male toon). Whoever else claims to be blogging here is quite simply lying. Please ONLY send stuff to Arica Storaro. I log only very seldomly on any other account I own, including the two above and the items might get lost. Thank you. :)
