ANNE SHIRLEY + SCENERY

[starscall]

Watching Anne Shirley, because I remember liking the books when I was younger.

Now sitting here going "... Diana and Anne feel very...very queer. Child me definitely did not catch this, but wow. This feels so Sappho approved??"

The way I'm sitting here now wondering if on a re-read my reaction wouldn't just be.

Also, as someone who got massively triggered trying to watch the pilot of Ann with an E? And so didn't even manage to finish the first episode? Anne Shirley is such a soothing balm.

Just a little fun retro-y number or something. I dunno, I thought it was cute.

This shawl goes with several things nicely. A bit disappointed the hair tends to grey over purple though.

In retrospect, I hate the colouring I used for this, but I'm not going to re-make the outfit to redo the shoot. So it'll have to do.

Had to try out some of the pieces i pulled today. Here's look #1, that I've dubbed Apprentice Fairy Witch.

Infinity Nikki Closet Styling Challenge #15: Fragrant Reverie

Has this outfit been done for ages? Yes. Is it just that I forgot to do a photoshoot? Maybe. Is it then because I forgot to post it after that? Most certainly.

Not overly happy with the shoes, but otherwise love this picnic look.

Infinity Nikki Closet Styling Challenge #14: Wishwind Whispers

Think this came out pretty cute. No complaints! Very Stoneville-girl got dressed up.

Infinity Nikki Closet Styling Challenge #13: Flower Melody

Ironically, I hardly us the dresses from this outfit. The accessories on the other hand, I obviously overuse. Also the return of those cuffs yet again, but I couldn't resist. (Also, the little detached sleeves from the current 5*? Absolutely an item I'm going to use all the time in the future, I can just tell.)

Infinity Nikki Closet Styling Challenge #12: Paper Crane's Flight

So, I'm glad I powered through and styled this dress. I didn't particularly want to at first, but I'm pleasantly surprised with the final look. Also I found an excuse to use that hat. Win win.

Infinity Nikki Closet Styling Challenge #12: Instant of Sunrise

I was originally tempted to just.... skip recolours, but I'm glad I didn't! I actually really like this look!

Also, I'm absolutely aware that this is the third outfit in a row in this series with fairy wings. All I can do is promise that as long as they even kind of match, I'm probably going to use them. 0 shame, 0 hesitation. My only regret is not wailing, so I don't have the other 2 colours. One day this banner will re-run and this wings will be MINE.

Coincidentally, this is the second outfit in a row that's used the Bloom Whispers cuffs from the bracelets section. 0 regrets. Beyond not having the recolour of those too.

Also also, I tried to make the one shot look like she was embracing the moon. Not sure I succeeded, but I tried.

Infinity Nikki Closet Styling Challenge #11: Enchanted Brilliance

Every time I think I've styled this dress to the point I can't find a way I like it better, I find out that I'm very wrong. I love this! I love this so much!

Also thank you devs for letting me pause mid outfit pose. Absolutely game changing for photo mode.

Also Also, weren't us day one players supposed to get props for the first two outfits if we hit the requisite number? Because I have yet to see anything from that.

Part of my next Closet Styling Challenge, but I just wanted to showcase the difference that could be achieved from just saturation plus lighting.

On the right we have saturation at 0, natural saturation at max, and then rainbow ambient lighting. The left, I increased the saturation and used... I think this is right edge lighting? I'd have to double check, but it's one of the base lighting styles.

Infinity Nikki Closet Styling Challenge #10: Snownight Letter

Actually had a lot of fun with this look. Also a surprisingly dramatic look for what I've always considered a more basic dress.

[starscall]

So, they added pausing to outfit poses and uh.. her wings fell off. That happened.

Trying new formats can be fun. Not used to video editing so it's a... work in progress skill.

Also no sound because I just had surgery and I'm wiped. Future monthly wrap ups will have music. Probably.
