straight laced

I never realized that DDK offered outfits for sale on their website periodically; I suppose I should have figured they didn’t just rely on getting a couple thousand off a Yahoo!Japan auction once in a while. Anyway, for whatever the reason, I thought that actually owning one of their outfits would be way out of my league, until I found this set for relatively cheap on Yahoo!Japan. Less than 7,000 yen for a cute pair of jeans (complete with DDK’s “crown” symbol on the back pocket) and an adorable black leather corset. Love it.

These are not my usual “perfect” photos with pure white backgrounds. I was trying something a little different with the shadows. Successful? I don’t know. Editing for these pretty much consisted of resizing, instead of the usual color and contrast tweaking I do in Photoshop. Gives a more “real world” feel or something.

dual angels 2

The other “dual angels” group, although saying that seems very strange to me. V just doesn’t seem like herself without her cat ears, and that poofy mohair wig… Neither of them have wings, either, for lack of space. Sometime in the future I am going to reshoot this with wings and a better wig for V.

They make a cute couple, although I’m not entirely clear on what their relationship is yet.

love art

I’ve been in love with loveart’s style since the first time I saw their outfits on auction, but I never thought I’d be fortunate enough to own one. But then luck intervened and I managed to snag this gorgeous gown covered in white ribbon roses and complete with angel wings. Photos could never do it justice; it’s perfectly beautiful in person. Her silver jewelry is, of course, by Robin’s Egg.

screaming pink

Since I don’t have any photos in the gallery of V in this wig (and she was the one I originally bought it for!), I thought I would fix that today.

Methinks the magenta of her wig sort of clashes with the hot pink of her Bobo N Doll shirt, but at the same time it kind of fits in a loud, chaotic sort of way. Cute enough, anyway, and it will have to do until I can find her some new things to wear.

an irish lass

One of the biggest mistakes @dirkmaximus makes is telling me when he likes a particular doll or outfit I show him. If he likes it as well, I’m far more prone to trying to get it. This outfit by Poshdolls is an example of this. The doll in the auction (a CustomHouse Choa, I think) was wearing a reddish wig, and he said the outfit plus the wig looked very Irish, which he liked. So I bought it. Hee! V already has her default reddish wig, so I put her Volks HG green eyes in and poof, Irish kitten.
