My name is QQ and I suffer from blogging binges.  After one of my most recent binges, I detoxed thanks to RL late nights keeping me busy, but the withdrawls took over and here I am back with a Heavenly Hash, complete with second helpings!

I have some things I have been sitting on, and here is one of them.  These feminine yet sexy tank tops by Yenta Semyorka of Y7 come in a pack of four featuring different shades of an oceanic horizon complete with a great cut on both the neckline and the hem with additional texture and wrinkle work making these fun, quality additions to any inventory.  Isabeaux leather pants by Launa Fauna of LF Fashions add a bit of “bad girl” flair especially with these gorgeous prim belts, respectively La Perle and Lushius, by Galea Yates of Fancy Schmancy.  Black leather Chelles wedge shoes by Skylar Pomeray of CSJ Designs are my chosen footwear here, and Onyx Leshelle of Maitreya is responsible for the no-nonsense Suya hair.  Wooden beaded jewelry finish the look off thanks to Caliah Lyon’s Kailena Sea and Shore necklace from her store Muse and the Coco-Nuts bracelet stack by Veronyka Heckroth of Frustrated Inc.

Next is a somewhat military chic hash that began with a dark green military jacket by Maria Gherardi of MG Fashion(available in other colors and on her discount wall!).  Maria had kindly passed me a couple of berets that I have been having fun with so I took a trip to her store and am definitely looking forward to seeing what she does in the future.

These boots, Industry boots, were such a fantastic surprise this morning provided by Accacia Brissot of Infernal.  Boots are both my weakness and the bane of my very SLexistence and I cringed as I put them on with the expectation that they would not “fit.”  I was right…they didn’t…BUT these were some of the most easily modifiable boots I have come across and in no time at all, and with barely any loss of the originally intended design, I was in boot heaven!  I dug out my old raggedy ass (that’s really what they are named!) stockings, garters and belts by Govindira Galatea of D3volution!, picked up the black leather glove set at Roslin Petion’s Tete a Pied, slightly tinted the brown scarf that comes with the Peepul outfit by June Dion of Bare Rose, along with a rope necklace I picked up for 50L at Kimmera Madison’s Tres Beau.  The belted plaid skirt is a piece from DoC Eldritch of DE Designs’ Valley Girl outfit and finally the hair is Onyx Leshelle’s latest, River.

While winding down after too long of a night at RL work I started playing around in Photoshop with lighting and effects and such.  If you’d like to have a look:

I’d say TGIF however that don’t matter since I have to work Saturday.   Don’t forget the ACS Fashion Show event brought to you by Second Style and the Fashion Angels on Sunday, Sept 23rd, at 2PM SLT!

Number of minutes between the /artilleri/ update and the Kats Coat fatpack nestled snugly in my inventory? 2 (I had to wait for the vendor board to rez!)

 Number of days I’ve been wearing the Coat, unable to part with the gorgeous snuggliness? 2.

 This Heavenly Hash started with the coat in maroon, including fur cuffs and a fur collar for both chest and spine attach points, I was determined to put together a look that harmonized with the fantabulousness of the primwork and texturing.

 For the makeup, I chose a rich velvety lipstick to complement the deep color of the coat and long dramatic prim lashes.

My goal was a sophisticated look with a hint of a Parisian feel, so naturally a pretty sculpted beret as in order, topping an ultra short length, finger curl coif. The earring design hints at a fleur de lis with a dainty diamond solitaire set in the center.

Layered beneath the coat is a snug black turtleneck with a cozy prim collar, and leather gloves in crimson to keep my fingers toasty.

The skirt is a chocolate wool A line that fits great beneath the shape of the trench. Semi opaque tights and square toed pumps complete the look from tete a pied.
