The Bleeding Edge: "Golden Empress" by Garded Secret

Talyia Tarber created "Golden Empress" back in December for The Fashion Teller's "The Nutcracker," but it has just now been released in her super amazing store, Garded Secret.  Done in beautiful hues of gold and sapphire, I sooooo wish that I had this makeup for my Finesmith Inspiration casting back in March.  Here's my winning Inspiration styling revisited, featuring "Golden Empress" in all of its splendor.

TEST 004: "Style That!" by Finesmith Designs

Straight from the Sy Whitesong fail vault, here's my pathetic entry for week 3 of Finesmith Designs' Style That!  Typically I find the thrill of only having 2 hours to style a complete outfit exhilarating, but I was having a crap day in RL, SL kept crashing, and I just couldn't seem to find a way to create in SL what I was visualizing in my head.  So, this is what I ended up with.  It's not a bad styling, mind you...just not in any way innovative.  Congratz to Bluebell Andretti for winning!
