Blueness

It’s green in the 52 weeks of colour challenge, and this is my festive attempt! Merry Christmas!
Here is Luna Jubilee’s green post: http://lunajubilee.com/2010/12/25/52-weeks-of-color-challenge-green/

As soon as I saw “Cerise” was the next colour in the “52 weeks” challenge, I thought of one of my favourite ever dresses, this “Elizabeth” dress from Last Call. I don’t usually feature pictures of my bottom (see 2nd picture), but the satin texture of this is perfect and the skirt also hangs just right, beautifully designed with just a few prims. The shrug I am wearing was the only thing in my inventory which I found when I searched on Cerise. After a lot of trying-on, I settled on this shell jewelry set from (luc) as it had just the right mixture of colours. To begin with I was wearing a smooth updo, but this rougher hair looked more “me”.
Thanks again to Luna Jubilee for starting the challenge, here is her Cerise post.

Once I’d done the Yellow post I quickly climbed back into my comfort zone of purple and blue, but still in the warm patchwork dress from Anunue.
Patchwork knit Tunic-PURPLE Patchwork Ribbon boots (pink): anuenue
Nail polish – dark violett: Ibizarre

I’m not sure this counts as yellow: I started with good intentions, but a lot of green crept in (not normally a colour I wear, it tends to clash with my hair). This patchwork dress came out last year but I still think it’s great, and the colours tone nicely with the (luc) set. They all have distinct patches of yellow, honest…  Undoubtedly yellow is the Swirly Cardigan. However, I’m afraid it degenerates into dark green as far as the rest of the clothes go.

The snowmen look pretty happy about it, though.

This is week  6 of Luna Jubilee’s 52 weeks of colour challenge and here is her yellow “starter post!

There is a bit of tinting in this photo in terms of the clothes (wrap and skirt), but I didn’t adjust the colour of anything in Photoshop: the trees really were that colour. I took the picture in the Zigana sim, which is really pretty in the snow. I went for a softer, romantic feel and, altogether, I liked the sepia look more than I thought I would. I don’t much like prim belts, but this one of Eolande’s is beautifully made, and all I had to do with it was move it upwards a bit. The necklace is also a classic, I think, it is certainly not new, but it hasn’t dated. Here is Luna Jubilee’s sepia post

Next up on Luna Jubilee’s 52 weeks of colour challenge is plum. I thought I was going to manage this quite well, but in the end I don’t seem to be wearing anything that is exactly the right colour. Oh well. I did start by wearing a Jane undershirt that was the right shade, but that disappeared once I’d fixed on a more sumptuous vintage feel for the outfit. Anyway, I think I am at least circling around the right shade.
This colour challenge has been great for discovering lost corners of my inventory. I can’t remember ever wearing this purple satin jacket (or indeed, buying it), nor these earrings. The headpiece is a “full perms” piece from Random Calliope that I picked up a couple of years ago. I put some of this many-coloured set (this is allowed by the creator) in a box here (in a box on a shelf up behind the bar).
