strangetomatoIt's been a while since I actually participated in one of the ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
maxis_taste dares (I did the makeover for Goopy and Sandy, but I never did get around to posting it). This one ties in nicely with my Christmasy mood, so I decided to go for it.
The challenge was to make over a couple (same sex apparently needing an opposite sex "chaperone" or some such thing :P), and I decided to go with a platonic couple for my entry. And I threw another guy into the mix, just 'cause. I've been happily playing around with Photoshop, so these images are screencapped and ~sparkly~ and I left them in the widescreen format of my monitor.
And it has FRANCES, so what are you waiting for?
For my couple, I chose Beau and Lucy, because there's no better date than your BFF. I went to the prom with mine, so I know this from experience, okay? The event is a Christmas party, as you can see.
Lucy is wearing a lovely frock from the Sims 2 Store Asian fusion collection (if you haven't check it out yet, head on over to MATY - some of the dresses are WAY above par for the store), and Beau rocks a recolour of a suit from Glamour Life that is easily my favourite male formal attire.
These two really know how to get the party started.
(And check out those frightening nutcrackers!)
Frances isn't quite sure what to think of it.
He's also sporting a recolour of my favourite suit, in an appropriately dark colour. He's such a black/blue/purple guy, isn't he? Is he a "winter"?
Frances: *needs to drink more before he'll dance like that, thankyouverymuch*
Frances: Yes, indeed...
(Beau's breakdancing, btw. It's from AL.)
Wait... did he just do what I think he did? *snicker* Lordy, the punch has to be spiked, because Frances just crushed the cup on his head! I just missed getting a pic of it.
Then he tosses it over his shoulder into the gelatin like a total BADASS.
Frances: Maybe it's the punch talking... but, damn, he's looking...
Frances: Ummm... goofy. But the blue in his shirt really does bring out his eyes.
Lucy smiles.
Yes, everything is going according to plan.

Date: 2008-12-12 01:40 am (UTC)The new Asian dresses are cute indeed! I was just checking them out a couple days ago. Perhaps the hair is odd (for a lack of a better word), but the clothes make up for that big time!
The suits are also neat. I agree, those are the best formal outfits for the male adults.
So THAT'S how the Breakdancing looks! For a moment I thought poor Beau had broken his back in one of those pics. Gotta love the crazy eyes the sims make while dancing ^^.
The makeovers are neat, very classy but comfortable enough to have fun at a party. Even Frances can't avoid losing up a little in these festive days. That pic of him throwing his cup at the gelatin is priceless. He looks so "cool", as if no one was looking at him.
