52 Weeks of Colour Challenge - Sepia

I think I may have actually clawed my way back to the current week's challenge, go me!

For the love of lindens, it has been an expensive week!  So, you've heard about this 'little' store called Mon Tissu right?  I have been waiting with baited breath for their opening since I saw the very first teaser pictures on plurk and O...M...G, i'll have one of everything in each colour kthankx :p   Thennnn Glam Affair goes and releases their new Jadis skin and it is stunning!  I don't buy fatpacks of skins often, I usually just grab the 'clean' version so i can tinker with makeups myself, but after demoing the Jadis skins, i snapped that fatpack up faster than you can blink.  Soooo long story short, after my little spending spree, my Sepia colour post just had to show off my new stuffs!

52 Weeks of Colour Challenge - Goldenrod

I wasn't exactly sure what colour Goldenrod was, so I spent some time with my good friend google only to find out that Goldenrod is the colour of a Crayola Crayon.  I figured dressing up as a crayon was probably a touch too easy so instead this was my best attempt at using some yellow hues.

52 Weeks of Colour Challenge - Blue

Yes I know, I'm late, again.  It really shouldn't come as a surprise by now :p

As half of the world prepares for snow, sleet and Santa some of us are preparing to embrace the warmth and beauty of summer.  Bon fires on the beach, more sunshine than you can sometimes stand and of course the traditional Christmas BBQ surrounded by family and friends.   As the temperature starts to rise I am finding myself more and more in the mood to sport shorts, t-shirts and sneakers in search of the summer fun that is only just around the corner.

Shades of Grey

The sun is white, the moon is grey

And the river is black, blue and green

The young are young, the old are old

And there are no shades of grey in between...

We all know about Luna Jubilee's colour challenge by now right?  This week's colour is grey and as usual I'm a lil late to the party but I did have fun putting this together given that I would say a good 80% of  my wardrobe falls into the gray/silver/black category, so I was set for this week.... the other 51 weeks however, could be challenging!

Today I'm also sporting the new Amber skin from League!  I've been pretty attached to my atomic skin lately and have been uber fussy when trying on new skins but I do have to say Nena Janus of League has excelled herself with the Amber Skin line, it is completely gorgeous and I have spent alll day kicking myself for being a tightass and only buying one makeup instead of the set!    As is usual with League skins, there are HEAPS of options as to how you wear your skin be it with cleavage or freckles or both or none, as well as, an abundance of makeup to keep even the most discerning skin customer (me!) happy.  If you haven't seen it yet, go and have a looksie..

But back to the task at hand 52 weeks of colour, starting with grey!

So long live the car crash hearts

So long live the car crash hearts

Cry on the couch

All the poets come to life

Fix me in 45...

I love me some new jackets, so I'm surprised not everyone on grid heard my delightful squeals when I stumbled across this utterly gorgeous new aviator jacket from JANE.  It landed in my inventory just in time to rug up against the elements and survive the horrid weather we have been having for the past week. Also, just as a random side note I do have to say I love love love it when creators put jacket collars as spine attachments instead of chest ones, which Janie Marlowe of Jane does, so you are awesome, thank you!

I was also fortunate enough to get a nice little distraction from the miserable rainy weather by way of a surprise from the lovely Slava Parkin of Garage, who was kind enough to drop me off a copy of her newly released Alexa skin series to have a play with .  The skin comes in a plain or bronzed version and has a nice dewy feel to it. 

With 3 different skin shades annnnnnd some of Slava's fabulous tattoo layer eyeshadows and lashes, there is definitely something for everyone, so go and check out Garage!

Lyrics from Thriller by Fall Out Boy
*denotes review copy items

Because none of it was ever worth the risk

And I've always lived like this,

keeping a comfortable distance,

and up until now,

I had sworn to myself that I'm content with loneliness,

because none of it was ever worth the risk...

FLF, Stumblebum, Project Themeory annnd new Maitreya hair all in one weekend, colour me happy!
