I've added previews of the commons outfits to THIS post :yes:

Antagonist 05-20-2012 03:25 AM

Whoa, so many new commons! I've always liked those Gatsby caps, and now I have the chance to own some! (for some reason never got around to buying the original ones) Woot! Thanks Jelly & staff! :hug:

jellysundae 05-20-2012 03:30 AM

I always liked Rando's caps, so this set was a perfect opportunity for some more useable colours for them :ninja:

Connielass 05-20-2012 03:34 AM

The Great Gatsby, huh? Not my all-time favorite story, but intriguing enough that it motivated me to get my own copy.

I don't suppose the timing had anything to do with the movie remake?

jellysundae 05-20-2012 03:39 AM

Lol, no :talk2hand: I hate movie remakes. The girl's top and skirt (pixelled by Bisque forever ago) had a 20's vibe, that I increased by adding the ribbon/hairpin and the shoes. So I thought I'd try and create a corresponding set for the guys, I wanted to give them suitable names and these seemed to fit :yes:

Connielass 05-20-2012 03:56 AM

I didn't think so. All the same, this event's commons have reminded me of the new movie, and the fact that I haven't seen it yet. I saw the one made in the '70s, and it wasn't all that great, but I've heard rave reviews about the new one.

Ascadellia 05-20-2012 03:58 AM

These are all so good. >w< Soft colors. <3

fireprincess 05-20-2012 05:52 AM

I LOVE these commons!!! :eager:

Will Lise be making an appearance or hosting anything?

To my knowledge all of the event threads are already in place, so I don't think she will be hosting anything. That said, there's a chance she may make an appearance in other threads. As you know, several Mene NPCs like to wander around and socialize during events. :)

I saw it for the first time last year and I agree with you, it was nice to watch, but I was expecting more, I enjoyed the visuals more than anything though.



I am going to position the flower on its own as a hairpin. On the small hairpin layer. That way you'll be able to wear it over the pin with the danglies. So you can mix things up with the colours, particularly if you wear it with the ribbon :yes:

That's awesome! I love the flowers, so getting to mix and match colors will be great!

I "tried on" the Daisy belt, and it's around my boobs.
Is that the way it's supposed to be?

Knerd 05-20-2012 04:55 PM

Yep! If you look at the set preview, the belt is very high waisted:

Jeannesha 05-20-2012 05:10 PM

lol... it's cute!

With this top and my neck thing, it looked like to was around the boobies instead of under them!

Antagonist 05-20-2012 05:58 PM

It looks nice on the ladies, but when I tried it on with my avi, it looked rather awkward. D:

jellysundae 05-20-2012 06:09 PM

Well, the belt was originally part of the top, I cut it off and edited the hole out of the top, so people could have more colour combination options, and could wear it seperately :yes: Its original intent wasn't as a male item at all :ninja:

Jeannesha 05-20-2012 06:11 PM

That was a great idea!

I realize that with the buttonhole and corsages we get more touches of color options too.

RoadToGallifrey 05-20-2012 09:15 PM

The commons are so lovely!

Nalin Sun 05-20-2012 09:18 PM

The first event item have been released *smiles* Have fun with it!

Vickyll3 05-20-2012 09:25 PM

Thanks for the update

Liztress 05-20-2012 09:25 PM

Hello, Nalin! How are you enjoying the event?

Jeannesha 05-20-2012 09:25 PM

lol...it's cute!

Liztress 05-20-2012 09:27 PM

It is. xD

Jeannesha 05-20-2012 09:34 PM

Do we know how many tokens it will take to get the entire set of EI's?

How many are there going to be?

(It would be nice to know before I start buying event commons with my tokens)
