DMC, Sonatta Morales, Saviad & new Slink Visage mesh head!

 

Hello lovelies, I hope you are all having a wonderful and stylish weekend!  This has been an exciting and very busy weekend for me and it certainly isn’t over yet…but I did want to blog my Gaultier-inspired outfit which I wore today for the open casting at Dallas Modeling Company. 

Our challenge was to choose a style inspiration from the Spring 2014 Collection of either Chanel, Louis Vuitton, or Jean Paul Gaultier.  Inspired by this fabulous hat by Swallow which I discovered at the Saviad Fashion Fair, I decided to take Gaultier’s femme fatale style as my challenge.

You will notice a different “look” for me today which is none other than the newly released Slink mesh head “Emma” which I couldn’t resist at the Skin Fair.  Admittedly I felt I took a risk wearing a mesh head to a casting, but I loved the way the expression looked with the whole style, and I couldn’t wait to “smile” really big if and when I was cast!

Once I purchased my Slink mesh head, the treasure hunt really began…which was to find all the new applier demos available at the Skin Fair.  Modish has always been one of my absolute favorite skin shops, and happily they were one of the handful of designers who offered a mesh head applier at the fair.  Of course with the mesh head comes many limitations, namely the option to change your makeup.  If you use the Slink skin option that comes with the head, the included makeup hud will work beautifully for you. 
However, if you prefer a different skin, you will have to use an applier and from what I have seen, most do not yet have additional makeup options.  Even still, isn’t it lovely?  I love the expressions and the natural profile.  There will be more to come in the blog featuring this fun avatar option.

I hope you will enjoy my Gaultier inspired styling…thankfully the judges did and I am honored to join Dallas Modeling Company as one of their official models!
