Black

Another of Miss Berry's meme! This time it's The Black & White Portrait Challenge. Me who is a love-anything-black person, I tried to do it as fast as I could. The challenge was so simple and yet I struggle so much during the process.

Meme Instructions: Share a black & white portrait (headshot) of your Second Life avatar. You can post a raw shot or process the image as much as you like. Don’t forget to leave a link to your image in the comments and also share it in the Blog Memes flickr group.

The styling I'm wearing is based on one my most favorite MV, Black by G-Dragon that I embedded the video below. I tried to bring out the air of elegance with a touch of rebelness just like in the clip. I've been sorting the outfit since last year and now I have the absolute perfect reason to finally display it in it's imperfectness.

Here is the original version of the picture.

Honestly, I felt like the Black and White version is so cool and it reminds me so much of an old movie that I can't remember the name now. But anyways, I'm so glad to try out the new tutorial that I got from Xanthe's meme. The picture looks better than the usual desaturation I did before. Thank you, Xanthe! <3

Also, I intentionally picked Wednesday to post since I'm kinda been a follower of 'Wear black on Wednesday'. If you're one of the fan of Adaams Family, you'll understand. \o/ Anyways until the next post my dollz~ <33
