Sim Opening: Tête à Pied @ Fleur
By Grazia Horwitz | December 16, 2007
It was announced on their blog last week, CJ Carnot and Roslin Petion, the creative duo behind Tête à Pied skins and clothing have entered a next stage in their content creating careers with the opening of a brand new sim that is dedicated exclusively to their brand. For that occasion there will be a massive release of skins, 4 sets of a total 12 regular make ups and a brand new version of the black & white skins, Noir. The old version was available as a Relay For Life special and have been updated to the Vivant standard and they made a male version of it as well. Roslin has been creating lots of new shapes too, both for women and men.
I’d like to focus on the regular make ups here, because, well, I just happen to love them. Aurora is inspired after this season’s Sephora look. A dramatic and colourful style with total emphasis on the eyes. The make up is iridiscent, which I happen to like better than glitter. Very festive for the holidays. Rose has the most adorable subtle freckles, and all over the body and the Paon pouty lips! I have not seen body freckles like these on any other skin, but honestly, I never really considered wearing freckled skins, because I think it’s quite ridiculous to have them all over your face and cleavage as most skins do … and none on the rest of your body. Après ski is a more day wear version of Dakota, the succesful Versace inspired make up that was released a couple of weeks ago. The lips remind me a lot of Tête’s Vixen skin from their previous line. Lots of gloss here. And finally there is Lustrous. Roslin called it pretty simple.. and that happens to be just a combination that I love in skins.. pretty… and simple. Lustrous pairs a slightly iridiscent eye make up with a soft gloss on the demure lips.
Opening will take place on Sunday December 16. Keep an eye on their blog for the opening time and rush over because the sim is adorable. CJ has been using all his building skills to create an image of travelling in the grand way… Orient Express style. Sit down in one of the comfortable carriages and enjoy the landscape while the journey lasts. 3 tickets will be hidden on the sim. And when you find them, take a copy.. once you have all three, trade them for a special release skin. Oh, and of course there will be some free goodies scattered over the sim for those who come to explore.
