I had no clue what I was doing for most of them; I just stuck things together that I thought looked nice (while trying to stay in my wardrobe as much as possible).

hey how strict is "head or chest layer" like if I happened to find something in overchest that looks interesting to work with could an exception be made or do you want to keep it limited to what you said?
Not sure if you'd be interested. is hosting a contest! The guidelines are in the first post. ^_^
- Ohohoho, you gave me a reason to check up on my WL items, so I'll be using one that's still there before (probably) buying it!

ooh yes the lavender in that wig you can defs find a lot in restockable items! i think it's usually under lilac or purple recolours? i love your middle one, how the moth looks like it's lifting the scarf!
this wig shape is so cool! i think everyone's first instinct is to put hairstyles behind the body to not cover the outfit so one that covers a lot is always going to be a bold statement!
it's so good you chose a challenge, it's hard to escape the monotony if you're drawn to the same theme/colours? you defs need to try something adventurous from time to time!
the gaps in the armour definitely make this super versatile! it's such a nice soft gold too, you could absolutely use contrasting colours to make it seem more yellow or white depending on what you want.
great choice, i love that you've drawn attention to different aspects of the item in each avatar!
nice, it's great how sheer the shaved part of that wig is! and i'm glad you might buy it, that's defs the outcome im looking for with this contest!
thank you guys for the entries! i might set up a google docs or something to showcase everyone's entries, hopefully in the next week
i'd let it slide but i'd have to give everyone the same chance and i think the rules list is long enough haha. i just wanted to make sure little items like jewellery or trinkets werent used, that's really the only reason i limited the layer choices. let's keep it in the head/chest this round, i'd kind of like to make this into a fortnightly challenge (make 1 avatar for 1 pawn shop item, small csc prize for best etc), so i'll defs keep overchest in mind for those!
and to everyone, thanks for showing interest and pinging your friends n such! i can't wait to see what you've got in store for me so give it your all!
I used I found it quite challenging as I've never been much of a pastel person

sure, totally fair. Thanks for the response!
Thank you! I'm so glad that i was able to showcase its versatility. I enjoyed working with it.
I actually don't mind it when a wig covers the body (if only for the fact that it means I don't have to use as much layering--screw the neck layer, with the exception of scarves). The shape is really wonderful, it's just the outlandish colour scheme that makes it really hard to work with most of the time (this coming from a girl who has pretty much only black/brunette/blonde/ginger wigs).

Thank you for the kind words. Usually, I silently play along with contests but rarely enter. Your contest and the tips you suggested really helped get me out of my rut. I've wanted to change my look, but never knew how to start. Now that I have a starting point, I'm going to work harder. Ironically, the idea I had when I saw my item, never came to fruition...so I bought the dress :D
I am pinging my favorite HA designers and friends and , hoping they will jump in too. I know you guys are busy, but this contest was a great escape from all the rl issues rolling around in our brains. <3
Nayona I will be smailing you as soon as I finishing composing my response.
I should have looked up lilac things. D8 D'oh lol. xD Thank youu, I am glad you like the cluttery one. It's my fave by far. :3
I would recommend taking a screenshot, idk what platform you use but wiki has tips on screenshots here
then I open paint and paste it in hope that helps
Yes, I did it like this yet then, the images are mini small and when I resize them, they are blurry.....

huh that is strange! I have no idea what is going on, maybe some browser zooming / size issue when pasting D:
you are wonderful ❤️
alright i actually love this a lot?
i tried using !



might do another set if i have time! also gonna have to do an outfit with those cheesecake curls now, i've had them for a while but never realized how cute they were with glasses
