Winter snug

This yummy coat is the current  We Love Role-Play offering from May's Soul.

Frankly, this coat looks so unbelievably snug that I wish had one RL! However, at least in SL, no fluffy animals were harmed to make this coat, which makes it easier for the vegetarians amongst us.

The mittens are a free gift under the tree at the event - just join the update group and help yourself to some awesome goodies.

I'm also wearing my trusty Arachzis horns from The.Plastik and Dyisi boots from Evie's Closet. Neither are new releases, but they're both items I turn to again and again. Does that make them classic?!

Lots of new and new-ish things...

If you haven't been to this round of  Genre (the Fae round), better hurry because it closes on the 12th before a new round opens on the 15th. I'm wearing the Ella dress from Luminary, and the Butterflies cage from Sweet Lies.

Pure Poison have also just released some awesome flat sandals for Slink flat feet. They're materials-enabled and you get three colours in the pack. Close-up further down!

The Living Light horns are new from The.Plastik (the mainstore has moved to Growl, btw). Each pack contains lots of options for the horns - you can wear just the top part, or the curled part, lights on or off, and with or without candles, endcaps and ribbons. You can also buy texture-change huds for the horns separately, which allow you to customize the candles and the ribbons.

The wings are part of Pucca Fire Caster's War Kitten outfit - discounted now at  We Love Role-Play , as is the hair from Milk.

Whimsical girl

CNY Fest, celebrating the Chinese New Year, opens on January 31st. (It's the Year of the Horse, and from what I've seen of predictions so far, a lot of people will have a good year, and others will have a mixed year. I don't think I saw any disasters promised for anyone, thankfully.)

The event is brought to you by the people behind the Water Lantern Festival, so you know what that means - an eclectic shopping experience on a beautiful sim.

Participating designers include Junbug, Half-Deer, Xiaj, Posesion, C'est La Vie!, FAUN, and lots more, with a mix of regular stores and gachas.

Crayon colour challenge: Week 49, Winter Wizard

Winter Wizard

Winter Wizard

Ooops. For no good reason, I have fallen behind with the colour challenge again.

I'm breaking one of my self-imposed challenge rules again, as I've used (a different colour of) this top previously. For another colour challenge post. Double ooops.

The top in quest is from The Plastik, as are the jeans (jeans! on this blog! I know, shocking, right?!). The Atlass jeans are a new release, and I won't tell anyone you're wearing them on your RP sim if you don't.

Also; more beauties from  Jewelry and Accessory Expo - this time a set (necklace, earrings, bracelets, ring) from E-Clipse. The shoes are from Easterling by Cristine Easterling of the Slave Dressing Room blog and clothing line.

More about the crayon colour challenge on Softpaw's blog.

PS I've been drinking. Does it show?

Pretty

Yay! Pretty flexies!

I wanted to show you some particular items tonight, so I kind of threw together a look. The items in question are a new handbag from Junbug and a jewelry set from AZE.

What both pieces have in common is their essential 'prettiness' - both are delightfully feminine and delicately colourful.

The AZE jewelry set is inspired by Victorian magic lanterns - a kind of slideshow. The necklace shows a rendition of the actual projector, so it might be best kept to contemporary, Victorian or steampunk sims. The earrings and bracelets don't have this reference though so can be worn anywhere!

Free slave outfit at Soedara

I've been lacking in blog-inspiration for the last little while, but when I saw Soedara had put a freebie out, I had to share it as soon as possible!

You'll find  ~Soedara~ Grinhilde Bond Freebie in the centre of the store, near to the landing point. (Don't forget to check the lucky chair while you're there!

In addition, there's a sale on in the store, with selected items 30%, 40% or 50% off. Signs indicating reductions are dotted round the store.

Love Donna Flora - last day

It's your very last chance to get to the Love Donna Flora fundraiser as it closes later today (more information about Squinternet Larnia and why the benefit has been organised on the official blog)

You can also contribute by donating directly (link on the blog), by shopping at the Donna Flora mainstore, or even at Collab 88 where there's a special collaborative dress.

Crayon Colour Challenge: Week 30, Ocean Green Pearl

Ocean Green Pearl

Ocean Green Pearl

When I had to do a photo for a green called 'Mountain Meadow', I did a mermaid theme. Now I do a photo for 'Ocean Green Pearl'.... and I use a flower theme.  Of course.

In the starring role, being all ocean green, is the Sephie top from The.Plastik, one of the latest releases.  The fantastically pouffy skirt is borrowed from a outfit by Boudoir (but I made my own knickers to go under it, lol).

You're bound to have heard something about the  Love Donna Flora  event (if not, maybe check out the official blog). The skin in these pics is kindly donated by Pink Fuel, meanwhile the jewelry in the shot is from Donna Flora itself.

Fantasy Faire 2013: FATEwear, Lupoaica, Lassitude & Ennui

One of FATEwear's offerings for this year's Fantasy Faire this a mesh elven gown... which might remind you of a certain epic movie trilogy from a few years ago.

From the front, this gown is perfectly demure, but in fact it is dramatically slit up the front, so you will flash some leg as you move around.
