OotW 09 / 2011 - Rock n Roll Mouse

Outfit of the Week 09 / 2011

This Outfit of the Week is just for fun, but very cute at the same time, I think.
Today, I'd like to start with the bottom. I just looove the new country wedges from HOC Industries. The texture detail is amazing and you can select from several colours for both the shoes and the metal buckles with a nifty HUD. They also come with a resizer script, but are modify as well. This also means you can remove all the scripts, once you are done customising them to match your current outfit (make sure you make a copy of the shoes first!). It greatly helps reduce lag and you can wear these fantastic shoes even to crowded placed without them being a burden to sim performance or your conscience.
The cute polka dot dress I am wearing was a gift from salire for the Black Butler Hunt. It has a nicely sculpted skirt and the top also has sculpted parts. Everything is resize scripted, but the scripts are removable.
Now, without the hood from soupizm, this would be a just neat little 50s retro outfit, but I think, the mouse ears really add some flavour to it. I like the brown hair with red streaks a lot, too. The mouse hood with hair is a collaboration item between soup and izm and was a free lucky board gift. Sadly, it is no longer available, but they have other cute animal hoodies at their collaboration store, located between both mainstores.

Breakdown:

Hair: soupizm - Mouse hood hair -- Lucky Board gift (no longer available)
Dress: salire - BBH dress -- Black Butler Hunt gift
Shoes: HOC Industries - Country Wedges -- L$ 175 (*)

This fun outfit didn't cost me anything and I still have L$ 109 left.

Week 01 / 2011 - At the bus stop

Outfit of the Week 01-2011

Here I am, at a bus stop in the middle of nowhere, ready to start my shopping adventure. For this first outfit I went for a really casual look. 

The necklace from Bare@Rose is one of my oldest items, but I still wear it frequently, and all attempts to replace it with something more recent have failed so far - I always tend to go back to it.

The t-shirt is still available at the [hate this] lucky boards and has been one of my favourites for quite a while now. 

The comfy sneakers might be among the earlier works of the fabulous Guu Nishi from HOC Industries, but their great fit and looks, many colour options and the low price make them a 'must have' that goes well with lots and lots of casual and sporty looks, modern to retro. Guu is giving away all her oldie items for free, before she will remove them for good. Don't hesitate and pay a visit to HOC Industries now, before the goodies are gone!

The jeans are part of a free outfit from Ivanka Akina. It comes with a shirt, belt and three pairs of jeans with sculpted legs. Soon after I had bought it on the marketplace, these jeans found their way into my folders of frequently used clothes.

Another more recent discovery, finishing my look for today, is the belt & bag from the [BUKKA] subscribe-o-matic.

From top to bottom:

necklace: B@R 10L Shop - B@R Phantom Crystal Necklace -- L$ 10

t-shirt: [hate this] - lucky bamboo female -- free, lucky board

bracelet: [Warmth18] - FREE Wristband -- n/a (store is closed)

belt/bag: [BUKKA] - Leather bag -- free, SOM

jeans: Ivanka Akina - hipster jeans 2 -- free

sneakers: HOC Industries - Bolts Sneakers -- L$ 40

The picture was taken at The Mother Road and the pose is from my AO (Oracul/Kuso - Mr. Smart for female shapes).

I spent L$ 50 on this outfit, which leaves me with L$ 200 for further adventures, a great way to start in my book!
