A post for Tuesday

Yeah not the best post title ever but hey no one comes here expecting great prose right?

By now you have seen this dress all over the feed, but really it is that pretty that one more person wearing it won't kill anyone right? It is the hunt prize from Swansong for the Platinum hunt if you didn't already know. I paired it with two of the new releases from The Dressing Room Blue, hair from Exile and skin from dekade. This trio of pretty made me want to pretend to be a bride on the beach, which I seem to do at least once every six months or so. Maybe in my next life I will get married on a beach.

I got all fancy with my pictures using the FilterCam HUD because there is no way I could get all the cool lens flare effects without it. If you don't own one yet you are really missing out. I need to pull it out to play with more often. I am off to go drink some more coffee.

Spotlight: Eye Candy Belisama's jewlery for Black Swan

Long enough title huh? Well in the spotlight today we have one of the offerings from Eye Candy that can be had from the Swan Song event over at Black Swan. Belisama's Mantle is sold as separate necklaces or the Liz Taylor pack which features all three, the option I totally suggest. First we will take a look at Belisama's Torc.

The Torc is the simplest of the three and I don't mean that in a bad way. Trust me when you see the other two you will understand. The gold of the Torc has a hammered sort of look to it in my opinion. I love the way the pieces flow from one to another so fluidly. Watch we got from Torc to the Jewels.

See what I was saying about flowing together? Notice how the the back is the same at the front of the Torc and now you have this fancy front. Now I have struggled with what to call the adornments hanging from the necklace, are they feathers, talons or am I putting too much thought into naming it instead of enjoying it's beauty? Last, but by no means least of the trio is the Mantle.

Again we have the flow from one piece to the next with the Mantle incorporating parts of the Torc and Jewels into it, but still being it's own at the same time. The Mantle is made up of red jeweled feathers. It just begs for an exposed back to showcase it in all it's glory. After seeing all three now you can understand why I called the Torc the "simplest" of the group. Click on the pictures for larger views, you won't be sorry.

Who wore it best?

I was wracking my brain trying to come up with a plausible reason to dress like a man other then "Sakura said to". Then it hit me, do a who wore it best type of deal. I am sure you have seen one somewhere before either on a celebrity website or some magazine. For mine here I decided to have my boy self and girl self wear the same outfit and let you decide who looked better.



So who looks better? Oh and since I had so much fun look for more of these in the future!
