Lazy Layering

We all love to layer in Phil's Place-it allows us to show off our skill in mix 'n' match as well as the fun of having an outfit that WE created. But in the transitional season we're experiencing in my corner of the world lazy layering seems good. By this I don't mean just wearing an outfit out of the box, but using items that come with the layers built it. Sort of "rightclick/layer" :) I'm featuring two such items in this post, one from Nylon Outfitters, the other from Pink Outfitters. Hmmm ... I sense a theme here!



My Layered Beaded Sweater Set in Purple & Yellow is from Nylon Outfitters. I'm wearing the Yellow layered option. While you do get 2 sweaters and two sweaters with camisoles all are on the jacket layer and there are no separate camisoles. But we're being lazy remember ? My trousers are Ibizarre's Basic Pants in Goldkaro. Shoes are Mishima Dawn in Puce by Maitreya. Hair is Luth from ETD. It SHOULD be in Auburn Burnt, but it could also be Caramel. I'm wearing a Shoujo DNB Skin in Azalea. Necklace is the old Tuli Wooden Heart one that I wish she would make in blue sometime.




During the Pink Outfitters sale I bought a number of items including the Fi Cardigan & Cami Set in signature pink. Again you get the cardigan alone as an option, but not the cami. I'm wearing Ibizarre Basic Pants in Asian Flowers and Cattiva's Aprilstars Patent Oxford Pumps in Bubblegum. Hair is Truth's Elizabeth 2 in Auburn. Skin is the Valentine Pink Fleur Shoujo in Azalea. Jewlry is the feather metal change set from MiamMiam, part of the now closed G.L.A.M. store.

My poses are from AnnaH/StoRin, Luth, Analu, Flowey and [LAP] --thank you ladies for making me look less like a noob :)

Thus ends the lazy layering.

A Little of This and That :)

First, a big thank you to Sasy Scarborough for starting Second Life Bloggers of Fashion. It's nice to have a place to share our blog shots, especially since not all of us are on the main feed.

Second, a look I threw together after visiting the Tableau sim, which may still be in the throes of its festival to placate the angry gods. St Ingrid seems to be involved in some way :) I arrived wearing an outfit I'll blog later, but came across this Purple Western top at Nylon Outfitters.


Somehow I neglected to take a picture of the back, which has the same pretty yoke pattern as the front. One thing I REALLY like about this top is that the bottom ruffle is not a prim that you can't get right at any cost, but is on the skirt layer so doesn't get tossed around by your AO.

From top to bottom the rest of the outfit is:
Janis from Diversity Hair in Ginger Red
Rose #2 in buff from Fleur Skins
Diamond Bee necklace and diamond Bow earrings from Paper Couture
Men's Ivory Wash Jeans from VG Republic [I like the higher waist of men's jeans]
Hampton Wedges in Tyrian Purple from ETD

Third, just a word about my photos. I seldom use the atmospheric shaders in Windlight, but always the basic shaders. I sometimes up the brightness and contrast a little to get a touch of glow back in, but other than cropping and touching up a stray pixel here and there I don't photoshop. I will, on occasion, flip an image horizontally for compositional reasons, as I did with the left hand image in this post. I realize that can be confusing to those who look carefully, but with the time I have available to blog, sometimes it happens. I do use the Photosphere.
