Back to Blogging

by Milla Michinaga » Category: Boho, Editorial, Fashion, Looks

I’m back again and I have to say that breaks are gooooood for refreshing ones mind; and this one was no exception. Even better, Mariya did such a fabulous job this last week — I was truly thrilled by all her posts and the wonderful response you guys gave her — that I was able to completely disconnect and just enjoy; AND she has given me so much inspiration and fresh ideas.

THANK YOU MARIYA for all the excellent, fabulous, marvelous and super stylish looks you have shared with all of us!!! Now, please, pretty please start up a regular blog so we can all see more of you!

I’ve actually been back in-world for a few days now, just flying around and shopping and attending to other business and I’ve been in this cute little boho dress for all that time.

I love the bright and sunny yellow and the cute embroideries on the front. I shortened the prim skirt a little and attached it to Left Pec for better movement. I kept things very simple with chunky sandals, a long boho necklace and some rings on the fingers of both hands.

I’m wearing a new skin; its the Chloe from Redgrave. It’s still in beta, i.e. still unreleased, but there is something very special about the face, in particular — the make-up and skin look very realistic and beautiful. It actually looks even better in WindLight, which I’m using lately, (I use the standard viewer for shooting my pics as the Snapshot function is broken in WindLight) and I haven’t taken off the skin since I put it on. Redgrave have many other beautiful new skins for sale — each face is based on a celebrity, like Scarlett, Beyonce, Tyra, etc, and they really do look good.

*EDIT*: Chloe has actually been released and is available in the Redgrave shop

    Welcome back, M! I exclusively blog in Windlight now and I don’t find the snapshot function to be broken - although yes, it functions differently. It is actually working properly - taking your screen size into consideration so you can’t force the wrong aspect ratio.

    Welcome back ^^ I love this dress and i also saw it in trousers ensemble on Gillian, beautiful !

  12. Milla Michinaga March 24th, 2008 11:46

    Thank you all! It’s good to be back :)

    Gillian, that’s interesting! I have not been able to get my pics the way I want them — maybe I’m missing something? I really hope so. I’ve been following the Jira issue and I still hope they take the Snapshot function back to how it was (or still is in the standard viewer).

    Milla Milla Milla…. I missed you…
    I love so so much your style.. Any thing you pick,, I go and buy…so if you see me around (hopfully maybe one day I get to meet you my muse) you will diffently figure out how your styel is an influence on me….even in RL…
    That yellow dress is amazing.. And you are right.. redgrave skins are so realistic.. hihihi I bought them all.. except Naomi Campell… I’m going to buy that dress once I go back home….
    Welcome back and XOXO

    Hiya again - it’s forcing you to work within the confines of your actual aspect ratio. So if you want to take a picture smaller than your screen for example, you need to do the math and figure out the size - or it should just set it properly for you.

    For example, my screen is 1440×900 so I work within multiples of that.

    Welcome back Milla!
    And wow, you look incredibly different with that skin! I thought we had a new guest blogger after Mariya’s wonderful contributions ;)

  16. Kallisto Destiny March 24th, 2008 16:41
