I was lucky enough to receive outfits from Shiryu Musashi from Mushashi - Do designs who has just reopened his store in the Anton sim(Musashi - Do mainstore). The first of these I opened was simply known as ‘Jetblack’ and it was a indian style number that I put on and was amazed at how it perfectly matched my Jeepers Creepers Shanghai’s I was wearing. For some reason this outfit I really loved the way it was shaded, and it clings to your shape like glue. I loved the soft texturing of it, it wasn’t too overstated and it was a really great outfit for something so simple.

Other things I loved about this outfit was that it looked as good without the jacket as it does with. This is in part due to the detailed belt that is a part of the pants texture, which is handy as it didn’t require me to edit a prim to fit my slim av frame. Over I dug this outfit and the whoel relaxed vibe it gave off.

The next outfit was the Highland wind outfit and its booster pack. They are essentially an outfit that wouldn’t be out of place in teh Scottish Highlands, in that it is a kilt with jacket and shirt. When I first unbagged these, I almost had a heart attack as my inventory had some huge gains due to the massive amount of pieces and variety that were contained within. In the initial pack there was over 30 pieces! Admittedly they aren’t all different, but rather colour variations. What was interesting about these was that the prim belt comes with an instruction notecard informing you that you are able to change the colour of the plate and gemstones contained within it! That made the outfit much more unique as it allows the owner to edit the colour of the belt to their own taste. I had no idea where to start really so I picked the McLeod (obviously I have seen Highlander as a kid) colour and went from there.

I then went thru the other variations and chose a few other to feature including the Wallace (a Braveheart reference?) - Part of the expansion pack

and the MacDonald

Anyhow all I can say is the texturing detail on these outfits is amazing and the sheer variety is overwhelming. So if you girls ever want to know what is under a man’s kilt, you have to wait until you see someone in SL wearing this and be sure to cam and check ;-P. Anyway at least I know what I will be wearing to fellow ASpiRE! model Georgette Whitfield’s party this year.

The last outfit in this ensemble is the suit known as the Glorious F. This suit is great and comes with 3 colour variations, black, black-pinstriped and brown. Also there is 3 different ways in which it can be worn- Full suit, Shirt, or turtle neck sweater with prim neck piece. I loved this suit (as most of you know I am an SL suit whore) and the variety was very welcome, as most times you only get a simple suit that doesn’t allow you to mix and match that much. This one however does. Here are some examples:

So overall the diverse range of looks that are feasible with this suit is awesome. There is also a notecard that tells people that this suit is compatible with all Musashi-DO ties and gives a nice little guide to teaching those of you who may not know how to fit these prims properly. It is attention to detail that to me make this jump out and differentiate it from the crowd. Again the shading and fit with this suit is great and really shows off your avs shape nicely. I would highly recommend this suit to anyone who is looking for something different to add to their inventory.
