Cajsa Lilliehook covers the best in virtual world screenshot art and digital painting
Vanessa Fox is a Flickr microblogger with a great eye for style and for creating natural looking scenes from daily life. In Secret Garden she shows off a flower crown and props, wearing a lovely summer dress. I like that the dress is not perfectly coordinated with some pastel floral print that echoes the flowers. After all, when have any of you planned to pick flowers and weave a crown when you go out for a walk? It’s a spontaneous act and being too coordinated takes away the feeling of spontaneity. All credited items are at Tres Chic, the sales event will close on August 10th.

I love this! Your love, it flows just like a river is so natural and relaxed. It looks like she’s at a scenic overlook with her love who has just asked her to turn around so he can take a picture. Unfortunately, Vanessa only credited the top, but I think the hair was Breeze from Truth with some skillful Photoshop tendrils.
- Top // Tres Blah - Lila Cami
- Shorts // Rouly
- Hair // Truth Breeze (My guess) on Marketplace
- Drink // Hive
Vanessa Fox does a fabulous job with her styling, her pictures, and creating the scene. I love to look at her outfits, but I do wish she did better credits. After all, knowing that a hair style came from Truth really isn’t that helpful when there must surely be eleven BILLION hair styles there. I guessed Breeze because it’s a recent addition on Marketplace. It would be one thing to not provide SLUrls, but the lack of an item name is not helpful in any store that has more than a few dozen items on sale. And of course, we want to buy the items because she makes them look so essential.
