A Smile Is Free And So Is This Jacket.

I've put together this outfit centered around the free fur jacket available from Shine.  FREE.  I love it and couldn't wait to style it to see what I came up with.  I shot these pics at the "It All Starts With A Smile" sim and found it so beautiful that I over did the photo's for this post but hey, when you're on a roll.  Lovely name for a place don't you think?

I have to mention these shoes.  I purchased them from Lindy Modern and Retro Shoes for a very modest price and I think they are gorgeous.  I'll be doing lots more shopping with this shoe designer that's for sure.

 Hope you like it.  I had a lot of fun with this.

Do you have days in SL when you take pics but nothing seems to look good?  The lighting, even though you've used the same presets before, just doesn't work and you give up that great idea for a white background.  That was me taking this set.  I tried 3 different locations but I just couldn't light my avi properly and went home, faux fur between my legs, opting for the easy life. Grrrrrr.

Anyway, here 'tis.

Today I'm primarily featuring two great designers I came across at the Flawless sim, Shine (pants) and Orquidea (top and hair flower).  Honorable mentions must also go to Kathrin Dassin of Moon Dance Boutique for the amazing nails that actually sit where they are supposed to and Redgrave for the fabulous Nikki Heels that are color change.  I do love the foot on this shoe and I managed the HUD very well.  If you can't find the nail design you want at Moon Dance then you're a whinger who could never be pleased.  Kathrin's note card indicates she will tint the nail glove to your favorite skin if you can't do it yourself which is very 'handy' for me.  Just type in "/1moondance l or /1moondance r" to select both left and right nails and a menu appears to change the designs...so easy.
