Yasmine In The City


 I stopped in at the Flawless sim to check out the new Designer Showcase lineup, and found that the sim has been redesigned.  This seems to happen often, but I'm hoping that the current design will last a while because I really like it.  It looks like a very elegant city shopping district.  I took the opportunity to take some photos of my new jewelry--the Yasmine pendant and earrings from ELEMENTAL. 


 There are two sets--one with decorative beads and one with solid beads.  Each set includes 4 gemstones and 4 matching beads, plus 4 metal shades--dark and light silver or gold.  The textures change with an easy to use menu.  In the top two photos, I'm wearing the "Classics" set, which includes red jasper, a really nice purple agate, spiderweb obsidian, and turquoise.  Below is the "Bolds" set, which includes pink jasper, a deep blue jasper, green maw sit sit, and purple sugalite.  My personal favorite is the "Classics" set because I really like the geometrically patterned beads.

Twyla In The Kingdom Of Caprica


 Have you ever been taking photos, really concentrating, and suddenly you realize that you have an audience?  Well, that happened to me the other day when I was at Caprica taking these photos.  Lol.  It's not the first time.  Sometimes, it's a real problem, because the on-lookers don't realize that you are taking photos and get in the way of your shot.  (Well, I'm giving them credit for not doing it intentionally.  But, sometimes you do wonder.)  Usually, if you ask nicely, they will move.  Here, I'm modeling the new Twyla jewelry from ELEMENTAL.  Above, is my favorite version--gold with beautiful Turquoise stones.  The necklace is a collar type design with twisted wire accents, great accessory for a low neckline.  What a statement!


 The jewelry is texture changing!  You get 4 metal choices and 3 stones in each set--Blues, Neutrals, Reds, & Greens (not shown).  The Blues set includes Turquoise, Azurite, and Sugalite.  Neutrals--Black Lace Agate, Amber, Topaz.  Reds--Ruby, Fire Opal, Red Jasper.  Greens--Malachite, Maw Sit Sit, Green Jasper.  You can have a closer look at the ELEMENTAL JEWELRY mainshop in SL.  The jewelry is also available in a petite version, for Petite Mesh Avatars, next door at PETITE ELEMENTAL JEWELRY.
