Love is blind... more from Enchantment!

More from Enchantment! (The event is still going strong, and runs all month.)

The charming and inventive fairytale gown is from The Annex . I love the subtle base colour, while the whole concept is really original. The skirt cage is like something from underneath a crinoline, but here it's outerwear, festooned with flowers.

Lark's wild rose accessories are so versatile, and could work for several RP characters - fae, slave, elf... even panther or wild girl. The armbands can be bought in the main Lark store, but the mask is one of the special prizes, which you'll only be able to obtain at the prize location with a completed stamp card.

My hairstyle is the main Enchantment release from Mina Hair  although I have to give you a heads-up... Mina's prize is a fatpack of a related style. The prize style concept is hair spread on a pillow, but it's also great for a windblown look. I actually used it for my water sprite look in the Naiad post.

Whenever you buy a special Enchantment release, you get a stamp card which entitles you to choose a never-to-be-available-again prize.  Get your card stamped at each of the Enchantment stores, then take it along to the prize hall.

IMPORTANT - you can wear as many cards as you like when getting them stamped, but only wear one card at a time when you are redeeming prizes. Otherwise, there will be tears.

I went into more detail on the process in this post, if you'd like to know more. Alternatively, it's also explained (in different languages!) on the official Enchantment blog. You'll also find a full list of participating stores - with slurls - there.

FF2014: The Naiad

Tonight I'm a naiad... Outfit by Mermaid Treasure & Boutique, jewelry by AZE Jewelry Designs, skin by Niekra's Dreams, scales from Folly, and eyes by Musa, all from the Fantasy Faire.

The hair is a special Enchantment stamp card prize by Mina. Links to participating designers and stamp card instructions (in five languages!) on the official Enchantment blog.

New round of We Love Role-Play opens tomorrow

A brand new round of We Love Role-Play opens tomorrow (by my counting, that's round 10, so congratulations to all the organisers and designers who've made it such a great event).

You'll find my hair (Mina), headdress (Keystone), and eyes (Musa - gacha) all there, and all discounted between 25% and 50% for the duration of the event. The poses are from the event too - the Huntress set from !bang.

The beautiful Grecian gown is another original mesh creation from Junbug, and you'll find it at the One Word event. This round is inspired by the word "tragedy", and the gown is called Electra, after the matricidal princess. The outfit is two pieces - the gown itself and optional shoulder drapes.

The staff is from EZ Weaponry. I'm a poser, not a fighter, so was really happy to see that with this item there's a purely cosmetic version included! Don't fret, naturally it includes all the other versions and gestures you need to do your opponents some real damage.

New outfit from Soedara & nail appliers from The.Plastik

Soedara - Belleza Isabella Pattern {Earth Tones}

Soedara  have just release a new mesh outfit - a top and skirt combo called Belleza Isabella. The outfit is a bit of a bargain as each pack contains 3 complimentary tones for only 150L.

You can choose from either the solid leather tones, or the pattern tones which feature a geometric print skirt. Great for mixing and matching, even across the same pack!

Over at the The.Plastik, Aikea has unleashed a veritable deluge of nail appliers for Slink hands and feet. To get an overview, check out the store blog post. Generally, you get 10 options in each pack, and they're grouped by colour or by texture (so for instance you could get a pack of purple shades, or a pack of sparkle tips). Talk about spoiled for choice.

Each pack includes huds for both hands and feet, and I really like that the huds stack on top of each other - so you can wear both at the same time. Photos after the jump.

Sun on snow

So many events, so little time!

The gown is from the current round of  at The Dressing Room Fusion but if you like it, better hurry, as there are only a few days left before the round changes over. It's from Glow Studio and available in three different colours, only 70L each.

The parasol starring in these pictures is from Okami at  We Love Role-Play, while the hair is from Mina at the same event. The rings and necklace are from The Forge at the fabulous Jewelry and Accessory Expo, and the nails are part of The Plastik's newest releases exclusively at Frost.

Kiyoshi

Docile Kiyoshi is new from Soedara, and is Marbella's first camisk for Pani slaves. Appropriately, the outfit has subtle oriental inflections, most obviousin the hair ornaments and accompanying shoes.

As is typical for Soedara, you get a lot of different options for your money. The 'versatile' packs have a hud which allows you to choose between 8 different textures for your outfit. These include various plain, sheer, and gold-embellished options. The pictures show two of the 'versatile' options - pink and black.

If you go for the 'prints' option, you have one damask-fabri texture for your outfit, but 8 different colours! Either way, the outfit is 325L.

Also included are a hair flower and fan-shaped hair ornament, necklace, armbands, bracelets, and the afore-mentioned shoes and huds. (NB The anklets are borrowed from another Soedara outfit.)

Round 8 of We Love Role-Play now open... and a new gown from TWA!

It's late (again!) so not too many words tonight.

Round 8 of We Love Role-Play has just opened, with discounted items from lots of your favourite fantasy and roleplay creators. This round, you will find some extra cheapies and freebies in celebration of the holidays. Check under the trees in each of the buildings.

Featured items in this post include skin from La Petite Morte, hair from Mina, and the beautiful Ensorcelled piercing necklace from Ellabella.

The gown isn't at the event, rather it's a recent release from The White Armory called 'Moors of Winterfell', and it's available in a range of different colours. I'm wearing 'Nightshade', a northern-feeling black and sepia combination!

Enchantment reminder

This post is just a quick reminder that you only have until the end of the month to shop at Enchantment's first round, inspired by the story of Snow White.

All the items at the event are exclusive and will never be available in the same form again.

In the pictures are the Snow White gown from The Annex, Blanka hair from Mina, Snow White & Blood Red jewelry from Ellabella, and the Snow Skin from Birdy. Full credits after the jump!

Regina

Understandably, quite a few designers at the Enchantment event have been inspired by various movie adaptations. The Disney-inspired versions are easy to spot, with the bold blues, reds and yellows.

The Library's outfit is named Regina - is this for the evil queen in Once Upon a Time? I don't watch show, so can't comment on any visual references to the costumes!

Regina consists of a mesh jacket, skirt, and boots, plus an optional 'collar extender' and clothing layer pants. There's also a matching hat, not shown here.

The hair is Blanka, from Mina, in special edition colours. The pack contains black, white, and two ombre shades. Again, there's also a crown, not shown. I guess I felt like going bare-headed!

Hunt at the Shack - free stuff!

*Shack* Andora (S) Lagoon

Shack are participating in the Femdom Hunt, and their hunt prize contains lots for anyone roleplaying as a slave girl. In the box you'll find a set of dancing silks, a pretty camisk, and a work tunic. Also - not shown here - are a box of 'Whipped' tattoos, if you've been punished recently. Ouch.

A quick word about the hair - I do love a fabulous swishy ponytail style - which is from Mina and available now (discounted!) at We Love Role-Play. This round will be open until the end of the month, when it closes for a few days before re-opening at 3pm SLT on 4th November.

Back... let's go shopping!

Sooo... I'm back from holidays again. Naturally, one of the first things I did when back in SL was go shopping.

Among the places I hit up were Genre, The Dressing Room Fusion and The Attic.

The theme for this month's Genre is 'Western'. I thought I'd just pop in and have a quick look, but there are so many great items there (all 100L or under) that I spent ages trying on demos. And purchasing.

The 'Native American dress' by La Petite Morte would make a great work tunic, while The Muses have a beautifully modest dress that would be perfect for Gorean free women (add your own veils).

Crayon Colour Challenge: Week 34, Lapis Lazuli

Lapis Lazuli

Lapis Lazuli

Another quick post to keep me on track with the Crayon Colour Challenge!

The main part of this outfit is from The Shack with a couple of add-ons from Soedara.

The orb props and poses are from Musa, and they're part of the current We <3 Role-Play

round which closes at the end of the month... so you've only a couple of days to grab them and lots of other bargains. The new round will open on 4th September.

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).

We Love Role-Play: The Library and Mina

Round 3 of We <3 Role-Play will open on 5 July, and the first review copies have been sent out by The Library and MINA Hair.
 
There's another special event in the works now - a benefit to support Squinternet Larnia, the creator behind the amazing Donna Flora brand.

Sadly, she is gravely ill, and the event will raise money to help her with expenses. Gogo of Juicybomb has written a very eloquent post, so I'll refer you to it for further information.

One Voice: Montagne Noire - En Petit Tenue

Montagne Noire's Victorian lingerie set, En Petit Tenue, reminded me so much of Scarlett O'Hara being laced by her maid...

...so One Voice goodies from Al Vulo, Mina, and Mayfly helped me complete the Miss Scarlet-esque look!

Montagne Noire have some other outfits in the event also, including the Peignoir which I blogged previously when it was on special offer. You have to pay full whack now, but it's for a good cause as all funds go towards helping Gala Phoenix with her legal costs - and getting Curio back on the grid!
