DID YOU SAY GLASSES?


No, but I did. These hawt glasses here are from Reek. They're new! Now, I'm not exactly a glasses connoisseur (or however the hell that's spelled). I like some glasses. I'm a cute butterfly kitten style of glasses. But other than the occasional spunky adorable (possibly children's) glasses, I can tell you I never wear glasses. But these -- these aren't like the cutesy glasses I get from stores. These don't make you scream adorable kitten rainbows, but I like them anyway. Why? I'll save that for the next paragraph. But for now...let me introduce...*drum rolls*...Reek's NEW Park Shades!


Now, adorable spotted heart-shaped glasses are cute for cute outfits. Not for everyday. I can say the same about so many other glasses I own merely for their adorableness. Cute for certain days, but not an everyday deal. The glasses featured in this post are. These Park Shades not only have a thick rim that makes you look stylish in a library, dinner, morning, nerdy, hipster, office, and other setting, but they also come with a HUD so that you may change the colors of the arms, frames, and lenses of the glasses. So, wearing black and white today? Go ahead and make these glasses black and white. Though the colors are basic colors like pink, green, and blue (no mauve, sorry I was disappointed too), it's still pretty easy to find some color that matches the outfit of your choice! Heck, you can even go with a plain Weezer black and call it a day! It doesn't matter because the choice is all yours. These glasses...they're good for all occasions. I promise.

My final words: If you're definitely into glasses and can never let your av have two eyes, definitely check them out and click the buy button. If not, check them out, see if it's something you really need. If not, check out the many other glasses choices Reek has. They have tons of others and most are more than perfect for summer.

MY UGLYDOROTHY just came out with a new skin! Well actually three, but I'm only gonna review one of them. Cause let's face it -- I'm not made of Lindens. Strippers really don't make as much as they used to. Oh, I kid (not really), but yes! Sopha Portal has come out with three new skins as of today! I'd like to think this is her way of paying respects to the now late Gary Coleman and Dennis Hopper. Plus when life gets bad, something good is always waiting around the corner! MY UGLYDOROTHY is the epitome of good. First of the three skins released today was a Vienna skin (seen in my last & first MY UGLYDOROTHY review) in pale. Why in pale? Well if you actually listened to me and checked out the Vienna skins released by Sopha a while back, they were all pretty darkish. Even the light one kinda looked a little sunkissed to me (Blair had to tell me the skin didn't look sunburnt -- No joke). Apparently, the sunkissed look didn't go over well with everybody, so Sopha made it right. Afterall, the customer is always right (unless their name is Rosalie Tenenbaum). The second of the skins released by Sopha is Drew. Now Drew isn't being reviewed here. I loved how it looked in the ad -- I really did, but when I tried on the demo, it just didn't look as cute. Bummer for me, I know right? It's still bleeds with adorable as does the skin released today that I actually am going to review.

*waits for it*

Like that dramatic pause there? The one that made you just explode into a mess of blood and anticipation? Yeah, I thought so. The skin I am about to unveil for your viewing pleasure (possibly for the first time) is Sue. Oh Sue, Sue, Sue. To get off topic a little bit, every time I see Sue, I think of the Mary Sue Litmus Test and my own intelligent ego smacks me with a smile. So you can imagine the smile I get when that name Sue is associated with my love for MY UGLYDOROTHY. Now multiply that smile with the smile I get when I see teeth-skins. That's right! Sue (and Drew) have teeth-skin options! But not everyone belongs in a circus like I do, so for those of you who are not as excited about teeth-skins as I am, each skin comes with a normal mouth option too. Most teeth-skins have both so this isn't surprising, but I don't care! You get the best of both worlds! *cues death by Miley Cyrus music now*

Teeth-Skin option for *MY UGLYDOROTHY - Sue_04

Normal Mouth option for *MY UGLYDOROTHY - SUE_04

Now onto the skin itself: I'd be lying if I said it was perfect, but it's pretty damn close. Honestly, perfection is something hard to achieve if achievable at all. And now that you've got my deep thought of the day -- THIS SKIN IS SO ADORABLE. It looks like it has an azn (spelling out asian is for losers) feel to it that I think is adorable. With the outfit I'm wearing, I'd even beg to say this skin is Tokyo Pop. My favorite part about the skin though? The lips. They're small, they're thin, and they make you look like you're as sweet as pie. I could seriously be wearing bondage gear in these photos and this skin would have made me look...well, nevermind. You'd have to wear a cupcake pacifier, pandabear backpack, this skin, and maybe glowing wings to look like an angel in bondage gear. But the skin would be included! One stepping stone closer to being just another devil in a sweet as cake disguise!

My final words: This is a definite check out. I'd check them all out, to be honest. Demo them all! Demo everything in the store! Buy something while you're there! ALSO: Join the MY UGLYDOROTHY group and win exclusive skins on the lucky boards as well! Can't lose if you don't try, am I right?

Once Upon A Dream

----

I love NuDoLu. I love NuDoLu’s creator. I love this look. What do I name this look? Modern Day Sleeping Beauty. It just fits for me. The blonde hair, the &bean skin, and the adorable pink top that seems to remind me of Princess Aurora’s pink ballgown but remain pajama looking at the same time…it just screams with ‘my prince is coming so let me dream of him’. I’ve got to admit too, I’m a sucker for anything as saccharine as fairy tales so the look in itself just warms my heart and brings the little princess inside of me out to play and wonder. I’m just really in love with this. Purely, purely in love.

Now, to be honest, I’m not the biggest fan of the pants (as seen in photos below). They seem a little pajama-like to me, not that that’s a bad thing for a lot of other people who dig this look. I’m just not the kind of girl to go traipsing through Second Life in what I think look like pajamas. With that said, in an at home and lounging situation or pajama party setting, these pants are effing adorable. They will make those around you shit kittens. I’m not joking, just ask Blair.

The real star of this post though is that top. OMG IT’S ADORABLE! It brings the Sleeping Beauty feel into a complete circle. Not only did this top look good with my fri.day Iunno Cuffed Jeans and Surf Couture Shoelace Sandals, but it looked good with its outfit’s pajama pants. I’m pretty sure it would also look awesome with a jean miniskirt, pair of sweatpants, random hipster bloomers (shoutout to Scribble)… heck you name it, this top would look adorable with it. It’s the top to end all tops, no joke. And this is coming from someone who avoids the color pink like the plague and I am telling you I love this top. It’s the second coming of Jesus! I cannot stop raving about this top! Well done, Neuilles Neuman, well done. I would give you a golf clap, but this is internet and you can’t hear it so I would just be clapping to myself. And that’s weird.

My last words: The pants aren’t bad. Not my cup of tea, but they’re adorable and definitely worth it if you love this look. The top, buy it. It goes with everything. I’m pretty sure this top would even make a goth outfit look like heaven. Okay maybe not, but it’s still definitely good investment, IMHO.

This Post Has Been Rated S for Syphillis

Yeah, I know my leg prims need fitting. Thx, Captain Obvious.

----

Let me start off by introducing myself to all of you fantabulous readers (all 2 of you, yay!). My name is Honey and I’m gonna put my sweet syrup all over you. …Okay…so I’m not Honey, but how badassed would it be if I was? Either way, I'm Rosalie Tenenbaum and I am here to review the DP Serendipity dress I’m wearing in the above picture and picture below. Now, I have no idea if this dress is new. Nor do I care. I like it and I don’t have any new shit to review yet anyways, so I’m going to review something I already love.

Not only does this dress scream with adorableness (which it does), but it’s functional. I mean with that big poofy skirt I can smuggle a small dog, small child, bag of potatoes, AK-47, entire zombie survival kit, and Jesus Christ on cheese toast without anyone noticing. I jest, I jest. I for one truly do love poofy flexi-skirts. With prim skirts, your legs pop out and I have a really hard time fitting them onto my body. I have a thin av. I’ll admit it, I’m abnormal. I’m sorry I’m not curvy or average, but curvy and average just feel wrong on me. Trust me, I’ve tried. Plus, not all girls are the same in real life, right? Why should all avs look the same then? Anyway so, if you have a thin av as well, you can imagine what trouble one may have with prim skirts, especially if the skirt in question is made for an averaged bodied av.

With this skirt, I felt like it fit me just fine without any extreme tinkering and still looked adorable. Not only that but these sort of baby doll dresses can really make the most masculine looking av look like an angel that was just pooped out by a Hello Kitty drag queen. So it looks like kittens and rainbows, makes you look like kittens and rainbows, and these dresses match a beach/lounge/DGAF theme perfectly. I know, right? What can’t this dress do? Well our theme today was ‘Going to the Boardwalk to Get Ice Cream’ and I can tell you that in real life I would probably wear a dress like this to a boardwalk. Heck, if this dress really existed, I’d wear this exact dress. I’d also wear a bathing suit under it so I could rip it off and jump belly first into the ocean, but that’s a story for another day.

My last words: This dress is awesome. Buy it now. Oh, you’re busy waxing your unibrow? I don’t care… buy the dress. You have to visit your great grandfather’s stepbrother’s cousin twice removed who has a lisp and a bladder infection in the hospital? That’s nice – buy this dress first. He has another 3 minutes to live anyways.
