I've been having some fashion fun lately, and an urge came spontaneously to me to share with you what I enjoy wearing. Plus, I enjoy giving credit to the kindly content creators of SL. An impromptu photoshoot ensued, and here I am, writing this! So here goes, roughly from top to bottom:

-
Leather Cap by Leyla Firefly -?this seems to be a new trend in SL — several of my friends are donning these — but the nice thing is that this is so customizable. As you can see, I've added my logo and tweaked the colors and textures.?Simple and chic… dare I say "ky00t"?
? -
Various Hair by Lost Thereian -?I basically took a bunch of Lost's popular creations and stacked and layered them, shuffle shuffle shuffle, to come up with what you see. Took me a long time but it's worth it because the look is just really me. Previously, I had worn black hair, but the lack of shading got to me after awhile, so I decided to go for something punky yet proper: I paid special attention to how the bangs swept over my forehead and eyes.

Custom Nomine Eyes by Munchflower Zaius - Munch is like the MacGyver of Photoshop. She even says it herself. I requested these from her after not being able to find eyes matching my ideal vision. I was going for a natural yet surrealistic look, the blue being in contrast to my Neon Watermelon scheme. You'll have to zoom in on them and watch my gaze dart back and forth to fully appreciate them.

Pet Collar — and Tail! by Prio Serpentine - I've wanted to talk more with Prio, he hasn't seemed to be on much, but this is some nice stuff. The choice of a number of catgirls inworld. I disabled the alpha anim trick used to "wiggle" the tail, tho, because it was only two frames and too stiff.
? -
MetaLily Prototype outfit by Nephilaine Protagonist - a work-in-progress by the wondrous creator of so much ferociously creative design that exemplifies quality in quantity in SL. I'm honored to wear this maximally minimalist set. The superlatives are justified.
? -
Ripped Up Gloves by Torrid Midnight - I've adored these ever seeing them at the NWN Fashion Expo '04 — I even photographed Kenzi modelling them! Finally, the other day, I wore them at last. And wowee do they speak volumes of attitude.
? -
R-20 Jetpack by Rickard Roentgen - definitely?heads-and-shoulders above?the crowd of?jetpack variants?in SL. It's not only recolorable, but has an elegant touch menu and is easily configurable to get you where you need to go. Plus, the inventor's a nice guy.
? -
Green Satin & Lace Lingerie by Angelina Becquerel - contrast to go with the street-smart 'tude. Angel thought of me when making these… awwws! Sweet yet sassy is the style I'm going for.
? -
Sonic Steps by Kenzington Fairlight - I think this is the first time I've worn non-formal footwear as Torley Jr., actually. As the pic shows, they're heavily remodded to suit my tastes, but the base design is excellent as it stands. Kenzi has a real keen taste for making treasures.
The neon bracelets and watch are long favorites of mine, as you may have noticed from previous pics. They are made by Torrid Midnight and Francis Chung, respectively (and respectfully ). Tor and Fran also go hand-in-hand again because I'm using the "torstand" casual poses and the Franimation Overrider to replace the generics. Credit must go to?Fleabite Beach for using the subtlely awesome fur textures that?I've used in various places.?My skin is by Mistress Midnight — what can I say? I'm an Umber baby!
A gracious thankyou to all of the aforementioned for helping me… to be me!
