Lederhosen, Oktoberfest….Where’s the Beer?

September 30, 2007 at 1:08 pm | In AnnaH, Layniewear, Sugar Punk |

Laynie Link from Layniewear sent me some items an embarassingly long time ago, so I asked my friend Gillian to come over in her best lederhosen so we could play dress up (I swear, it’s better than my barbies were when I was little).

Out of the package I was sent, I chose to review the Teagan bamboo vest and coordinating shirt. The seams are well-done and the textures are good, though I have to say that the shirt should have prim sleeves. You know how you sometimes get non-prim-pants that show whatever layer you’re wearing underneath, like if you’re not wearing socks it’ll show your skintone as the underside of the pants? It’s rather icky and disturbing, and it’s the reason I wear socks whenever I wear pants like that. This shirt does the same thing, but prim sleeves would completely fix that problem. These two items are transfer only, the vest costs L$100, and it’s made on both the shirt and jacket layers.

On the left, Gillian is wearing:

Paris hair by Naughty, Vogue Amber Fall 3 (freckled) skin by Celestial Studios, Lederhosen by Sugar Punk, Tights by Blaze, and Aileen pumps in flame (this colour not available) by Last Call.

On the right, I’m wearing:

Flexi frenchies by Panache, Vogue Amber Green Glitter skin by Celestial Studios, Teagan Bamboo vest and shirt from Layniewear, Paris shorts in burgundy by AnnaH Couture (freebie), Fishnet stockings in green by WRONG, and my new sekkrit lovah, the Sassy sandals (sans ankle straps) in mixed burgundy by Maitreya.

  1. NanoGunk makes a tintable set of pseudo-armwarmers/legwarmers (I think they sell for 10L?) that help deal a bit with flesharms/fleshlegs. I’m sure that there are other people that make these as well; I mentioned NanoGunk because those are the ones I own. They work well for creating a fake shadow/fade to black in place of the huge flesh saggy thing. It’s not quite as good as prim arms, but it’s better than nothing. ^_^

  4. Did I include the gloves for the shirt in the review pack? They get rid of the fleshy thing inside the sleeves. But thanks for the review!! The pics are FANTASTIC!

  5. I’m not sure about the gloves…I didn’t notice any. But I’ll check when I get to log in, Laynie.

    Thanks for thinking of me for the review. :)
