21 Shoe: N-core

I love the use of snakeskin twisted around black and white leather that is part of N-core's offering for this 21 Shoe event, fitted for Belleza High, Maitreya High, N-core Xtreme, SLink High, and TMP Ouch feet. The skin color is similar the common rat snake, a mottled combination of browns on cream which is simply lovely. The shoes come with black and white ribbon, but pretty much everything else about them is texture change via a slick HUD. The platform, for example, can be changed between the color of the shoe - black or white - and a sunny sort of cork base. The inner and outer soles can also be color changed between beige, tan, and black with an added red for the inner base, if you want that splash of color. And finally, the large metal pieces holding the ribbon together can be tinted between gold or silver, for the final touch of sparkle. I love the open weave-work design of these shoes, and the fun touches of snakeskin which remain classy thanks to the solid base behind them. I particularly like how N-core placed a narrow band of snakeskin along the edge of the platform shoe; it's such a subtle touch, but it ties the whole look together.

At midnight, the 21 Shoe event begins at all of the various stores of the event, each one offering up two shoes for the price of one - in many cases, shoes which will not be available ever again. If you join the group, you'll not only get a notice at midnight but you can also pick up the awesome group gift from Sax Shepherd Designs - and get into the group for free as well!
