Had to make another quick post featuring a few more things from MELT, notably this adorable skin from Julliette Westerburg, and also I couldn’t hold off blogging this bag by Alla Ruff any longer, even though it’s a work in progress and lacking elements, such as a keychain option. I keep walking around with it, it’s so chic and feminine, even unfinished !

I had been itching to feature skins from Detour almost since I started this blog; sadly, no new skins had been released there since I last bought Luca and Kirsten in early 2008, and those felt a little outdated by now. So I patiently waited and hoped for something more up to date to come out someday. Well, last week-end I happened to go and found that all old lines had been retired and in their place was now “Bijou”, which I immediately had a crush on ! There was also another line but I didn’t look at it too closely. This one comes in many tones, like 8 or 9 if I remember, and has about 6 different sets of 4 make-ups each. I hope I’ll be able to enjoy it a while and not jump onto another skin too soon ! I love how it’s fresh, but not too young or too clean, just twenty-something-I-found-my-style hip, and also is just the right amount of realism and hand-drawn goodiness mixed together, not to mention that the basic pack (at 3000L) offers natural looks as well as the usual funky “Detour” make-ups, and it makes me feel as though I should be able to go a long way with that without having to drop big bucks in a spendy fat pack.

Whoooo, more pose love! I was bringing the finishing touches to a post when I had an inventory offer from Willa Whybrow for several packs of poses, and I liked them so much, I decided to re-do the shoot with them. There’s a lot more of them, and I’m sure I’ll be using them over and over again. They’re lovely, quirky and trendy and are retailed, I believe, at the “Waffles!” store.
