Bourbon in your eyes - Featuring IT! and Powder Pack - LeLutka!

The past week has run away from me and I seriously don't know how.  Life has a tendency to speed by while we are waiting for something to happen.  As promised, once I managed to get online again, I opened my delivery from Powder Pack and just had to show off a few things!

I couldn't believe how many designers have gotten involved with Powder Pack, and I was delighted to see so many appliers, including lips, eye shadows, freckles, eyebrows, and entire skins!  I went through every item before I settled on my look for today, featuring *YS&YS*, #adored, and Izzie's.  The skin from *YS&YS* is available in different tones and the HUD is amazing, giving you lots of options, including the brows.  The skin is very well done with perfect shading on the neck, under arms and groin area, with great attention paid to the detailing on the face.  If you are looking for shiny shadows and lips, then you will love the releases from Izzie's for the LeLutka pack.  They come in tons of different colors and tones, making them incredibly versatile.  You can totally change the look of a skin with makeup, which is always a good thing, considering how much appliers can be.  I have never tried other lashes on my LeLutka head, other than the ones that come with it, so I was excited when I saw lashes from #adored, giving me yet another new look!  The lashes come in different designs and fit perfectly on the head, even after lots of adjustments on my Bento head, so do yourself a favor and head over to Powder Pack and pick up the LeLutka addition, or reserve the next Catwa pack, I promise you will NOT be disappointed! 

The Avenue is currently running, which is where you can find these gorgeous designs from IT!, at 35% off, which means you just HAVE to stop by and add these pieces to your jewelry box.  The Aura Ear Cuffs have an amazing HUD where you can change the metals and gemstones, the same with the necklace, and they can also be resized via the HUD as well, just make sure to put on, and resize each piece individually because the HUD's have a tendency to interact with each other.  I absolutely adore the beaded necklace, by the way, with the multitude of options to design the perfect piece for whatever ensemble you happen to be wearing, and I truly believe everyone needs pieces like this in all their jewelry boxes!

As you all can tell I have been enjoying the discovery that I can use "advanced lighting" up on my little platform and I can't explain how happy this makes me.  It may have taken literally 4 hours to take 6 pictures, but it's worth it!  At least I hope so!  I know here soon that I won't be taking that much time, because I won't need to see ALL the windlights in "advanced."  I feel a bit like a kid in a candy store!  So many amazing things you can do with just a click of a different windlight.  I have noticed however, that I have to be careful because occasionally things get all jagged again even though I have the filters on to keep that from happening.  I have decided this is my pc's way of letting me know it's a bit tired and that it needs a break, so I listen and wander off for awhile so the hamsters can relax and have a smoke break or whatever.  So any of you out there frustrated with your p.o.s. computers and their failing graphics. then shoot me a note inworld (JadedPanther Resident) or find me on Facebook (Jade Samsara) and I will share with you the tricks I have discovered along the way.  I am by no means a photo expert nor do I take the best pictures, but over the last year and a half I have found ways to utilize what I have to the best of its ability.  I hope you are enjoying your weekend and now I am off to go play around with some windlights and furniture!!

Have a wonderfully wicked rest of your weekend and remember to always stay true to your style and make today's fashion trends work for you!
