The lovely Achariya, the one who began the Dress Me Up challenge, gets to dress me up in this post. She suggested, “I’d love to see you do elf — like with Schadenfreude’s Thistle Tenno skin and pointy ears (I think the skin color is light purple), and then a medieval look from Evie’s closet. This might be expensive, though! For a cheaper option, elven ears from Illusions and a medieval dress from miriel’s.” When I read that, I may have actually shouted for joy because that was just the excuse I’d been waiting for to buy some elf ears! I’ve been staring at cute elf ears in shops for the longest time, but for some reason, I just couldn’t get myself to buy any of them until now.

I went back to several places in my quest for the perfect elf ears for me, and I ended up exactly where I suspected I might. Illusions had the selection of shapes, sizes, and piercings that seemed to call to me the most, and I eventually decided on the elfin ear shape with the mystic piercings style. Then I needed to decide what skin I thought I’d wear the most with the ears to help me choose between the various skin tone options, and I decided to return to a pink and pale gray skin named Glitter Goth that lends a bit of otherworldly magic to any look. I picked up the natural skin tones pack so that I could tint the lightest shade to the gray I wanted. The tinting took a bit longer than I expected because I’m a perfectionist, but I finally got close enough for me. Siyu Suen, the owner of Illusions, actually offers a custom color matching service for a small fee if you find that you can’t get close to your preferred tone, which I think is a really nice touch.

While at Illusions, I was reminded of the Amirah headpiece, and it insisted on becoming part of my inventory as well. Then it was time to go dress shopping! I went straight to Evie’s Closet as Achariya suggested because it’s been quite a while since I purchased anything there, and I knew I’d find a wealth of choices. The other dresses didn’t have a chance though once I spotted the Caterina gown in Snow. Perfection!

Evie’s Closet is located on the Oubliette sim now along with Balderdash and Winx Home & Garden, and in addition to the great shopping, Oubliette is set up for lovely wintry photos. Both of my photos in this post were taken there, and I know I’ll be back for more photos in the future. Thanks so much to Achariya for dressing me, and my elf side will probably come out to play again soon because I’m in love with these ears!
