Chinese New Year festival opens tomorrow

Chinese New Year festival opens tomorrow, and even thought it's not open just yet, I've linked with the slurl.

Cashmere & Keane have made a traditional-looking suit, which reminds me of an elegant pair of silk pyjamas. The outfit is one piece (not separate top and bottom), comes in male and female versions, and three different sizes. It's housed inside a little hut at the fair, so be sure and look inside.

The pose is from Posesion, from their 'geisha' set, and in the background, I've set out a variety of the decor items from the event. (I don't usually do decor - so hopefully it's not too much of a hot mess!)

The Undying Lands

Round 7 of We Love Role-Play has just opened!

Pictured here is the lovely Magi necklace from Ellabella, in the 'Spiritual' colourway. It's also available in black and green/purple. I think I'm going to go back for that one.

The skin is Elora from Bite & Claw. It includes the elf ears show here, bare feet, and three different tattoos (pictured in this post).

The antlers are another offering from Half-Deer at Enchantment, alongside the poisoned hair comb.

The gown is from The White Armory. Not a Ghost of a Chance is a limited edition, and only available till the end of November. It's a mixture of white and palest greys, and swathed in masses of ethereal ribbons.

Belladonna

If you haven't yet seen La Bellezza, the new release from Junbug, do yourself a favour and check it out. It's beautiful! This Victorian-inspired formal gown comes in black and purple as well as blue. The gown is materials ready too - I'm not though, I'm too afraid to try the new Firestorm beta.

Also featured are some accessories from Enchantment (with a dress this pretty and ornate, you only need to add a few little touches). The hair ornament is from Half-Deer, and it is the Poisoned Hair Comb... as given to Snow White by the Evil Queen. How our model above is impervious to its effects, I have no idea.

The drop earrings (slightly modified) and ring are from Ellabella, and they are a tiny part of the Snow White & Blood Red jewelry set. This set contains two complete sets of jewelry, one in delicate pearly shades, and the other in deeper shades. The circlet, necklace, and face piercings are not shown here.

Crayon Colour Challenge: Week 31, Purple Mountain's Majesty

Purple Mountain's Majesty

Purple Mountain's Majesty

Bit of a outfit mash-up for this one; the top is part of the Penelope outfit from Delicious, while the skirt is taken from the Luma silks set from The Shack.

I spent ages picking the outfit for this one, then for absolutely no reason at all was overwhelmed by the desire to add some antlers. The Jackalope set from Half-Deer are wonderfully whimsical.

The fabulously dreamy skin is from Alchemy (I'm a bit in love with it, I think) and poses are by Musa. You can find both at a discounted price for this round of  We <3 Role-Play - go check it out!

Crayon Colour Challenge: Week 27, Star Spangled Banner

Star Spangled Banner

Yes, I know I've skipped a few, but it's the 4th of July so I couldn't possibly not do 'Star Spangled Banner' today!

Softpaw did specify the colours on her blog, but I didn't check too closely (or at all), I went with the overall theme instead.

You might recognise the hair from yesterday's post; it's another colour in the MINA pack for We <3 Role-Play (opening tomorrow).

Vanafindiel, the white-haired girl

This ethereal gown ('Vanafindiel *white as snow*') from K a s h i e is available free as part of Atooly's Hunting for Winter hunt. It's very cute so I thought I'd style it up to show you. Most of the other items in the pic are free or on sale, so even if Lindens are tight, you might find something worth investigating!

Details after the jump.
