Miss Miller

Time to get your skates on - there are just four days left for the Rumpelstiltskin round of Enchantment.

In these pictures, I'm wearing both of Dead Dollz's offerings. First is The Miller's Daughter Choker, which is the item for sale.

It includes a stamp card, which you can complete by visiting all the participating stores and tagging the card. Then you can exchange it for any of the prizes in the special prize location. (Full details on the official Enchantment blog.)

This brings us to the Dead Dollz second item - it's the special exclusive Enchantment prize, The Miller's Daughter gown. Isn't it beautiful?

As one of the special prizes, it will only be until the end of November. After this, it will disappear into the ether, never to be seen again.

The fur shrug I'm wearing is from The Annex - it's another special Enchantment item, while my eyes from Adored are another Enchantment prize.

The armwarmers/sleeves are from Junbug, from the Midnight Fae gacha at The Secret Affair. Don't miss this one, because the price for play is set to only 30L for the duration of the event. The prizes include sleeves, wings, and fabulous gowns. This round also ends on 30 November, so don't miss out.

Oh, and a slightly early Happy Thanksgiving to everyone celebrating!

Enchantment preview: Rumpelstiltskin

The new round of Enchantment - the stamp card rally with fairytale theme - opens in November.

The inspiration behind this round is Rumpelstiltskin. A poor miller lies that his daughter can spin straw into gold. Alas for our heroine; the king believes him and has her locked up in a tower room full of straw, and a solitary spinning wheel, so that she can increase his net worth by morning... or have her head chopped off.

Rescue shows up in the shape of imp, who spins the gold in exchange for her necklace, her ring, and finally the promise of her firstborn child when she is queen.

A year passes, and the new queen has forgotten all about the imp, and gives birth to a beautiful, much loved child. The imp suddenly appears and demands that she relinquish the infant to him, although he offers her a second chance: if she can discover his name in three days she can keep the child.

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.

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!

Sorcery

More from Enchantment... this time, instead of Snow White, it's her wicked stepmother. Her enchanted mirror is not to be seen, so we can only imagine she must be about some other sorcery - crafting a poison perhaps, or casting a spell on the king to keep him in her thrall.

Enchantment will open to the public on 1 November at 12 noon SLT.  Members of the Enchantment update group can attend the event earlier as a perk - starting from midnight on the first. (I'll post the slurl nearer the time!) All items are exclusive to the event, and won't be available afterwards.
