Finally Friday! I am sure many of you SLers are out celebrating now that Friday has gotten here. I'm still fighting the flu which might explain why this blog post took me hours to get done. I've never been so slow to take photos and get them edited before in my life, and they are just basic shots! (My apologies to Imandra for the simplicity of them, I will make it up to you I promise!) At least the skins and shapes are able to clearly speak for themselves, so I will let them get to it.  If you somehow missed the update from [42] last week here is a fast reminder about the fabulous skin Flux that was released and its partnering shape Jessie. Each skin pack comes with the shape or you can shuffle over and purchase the shape separately. I often have a hard time finding skins that will work well with my personal shape, which was designed to go with my favorite and normally used skin. However, the skins from [42] are a rare exception to the rule! They always blend well with my features and often sport my favorite eye makeup, I love a smokey eye. In the photo above, for this package I did use the Jessie shape that comes with the Flux skin. I have no doubt it is fast becoming her best selling shape yet! I am extremely excited to have been lucky enough to get a sneak peek set of tomorrows release! Gravity will come with all the normal bells and whistles a [42] skin is known to include which means the Carrie shape is in each skin package or may, again, be purchased on its own. If you want to see more bits n pieces of any of the skins I have shown please be sure to pop on down to the [42] main store or visit their blog here. Not surprisingly, the eye makeup pulled me right in. The smokey eye and sweeping liners are, once again, amazing. The shape is fabulously sweet, slender and brings out the best of the skins details. Come down to [42] to try out the demos of the different skin shades as well, those shown are in Neutral.    The designer behind [42] knows that all work and no play is, well, RL! Thankfully this is SL and this weeks release is accompanied by Galaxies, a colorful and awesome set of skins. These photos are just to show off how fabulous they are, however, I have a photo manipulation in the works to show off one of them in another entry. They certainly spark some inspiration and will have you rummaging through your inventory for just the right outfit to set them off.   Now, I'm not quite sure how I have gotten this far without passing out. My backspace button has gotten plenty of use and I hope I have caught all typos and errors, but if not, just focus on the skins people, focus, focus! Hopefully later I will have the picture done that I have started working on to play with one of the freebie skins. If you like to take shots in SL then I hope you will do the same and share them with us. I know the [42] people would love to see them! Many thanks for the previews!
