Enchantment: The trespass

So I have spare time and internet access for a couple of days... time to squeeze in a couple of quick posts!

August is drawing to a close, which means you have only a few days left to shop the current rounds of various events.

One of those is Enchantment, which this round is inspired by the tale of Bluebeard. You'll find special items at each of the participating stores, and packaged with each of these is a stamp card for the rally.

Wear your card or cards and click the stamp machine at each of the 20 stores. Each completed card entitles you to choose a prize at the special prize mall.  (Detailed instructions on the  official blog.) The prizes are extra special as they are exclusive to the event and will never be available again.

In these photos, I'm wearing the Jeune Mairee gown from The Muses, and necklace and headwrap from Frogstar.

The setting is the 'Skybox of Unfortunate Princesses', also from Frogstar, and in the background you can see the gruesome 'Bluebeard Bodies' prop from DRD.

FF2014: Peacocking

Due to time constraints, this is going to be a quick post, so here goes.

Today, from Fantasy Faire I'm wearing Paiva, a stunning gown and cloak outfit from The Muses. The outfit comes in four pieces; gown, fabric cloak, additional feather cloak, and feather cloak clasps, so you can mix and match.

The necklace is from BluPrintz (another new-to-me store) and the gem is colour change... to match your birthstone. I'm also wearing several items from LaNoir Soleil - the eyes, hair and horns. (I also added and tinted a random modifiable hairbase that was lurking in my inventory.)

Now, I know I've told you this before, but the Faire only runs until the 11th May - that's this Sunday. So please don't miss your opportunity to visit the beautiful sims and maybe even support the American Cancer Society by buying from the special vendors.

A couple of Fifty Linden Friday items in the mix too. The armbands are from Noodles, and the poses are the special offer from !bang. You'll find slurls to the stores linked in the credits at the end, remember the offers are only good for today!

I'd also like to draw your attention to the fabulous sandals, brand new from Pure Poison who are really turning out some beautiful add-ons for Slink feet these days.

Wow. Such colour. Much materials. Wow.

The Muses have put out four stunning gowns for the upcoming round of W<3RP, which opens on 4 May. There are four distinct styles but they share a common colour theme - orange, red and gold - and make for a really desirable collection.

Some people can be snobbish about about original mesh (I'm not one of them). When you see ravishing texture-work like this though, you can't help but think they're missing out. The 'materials' are beautifully executed too, with the golden parts having a real lustre under the light.

These outfits definitely have the 'wow' factor in my book, and I can't recommend them highly enough.

Also fabulous is Aiyana, a new hair from Calico. From the front, it looks like a simple updo, but at the back you'll see the braids wrapped and secured with flowers (colour change with hud). It's currently available at the Fit for a Princess Event.


The golden 'sandals' you can glimpse in some of the photos are Slink flat foot add-ons from Maxi Gossamer, at the April round of  Collabor88. The new round will be opening soon, but I imagine you'll be able to find them at the mainstore thereafter.

Finally, I added various bits and pieces of jewelry from Soedara to finish off the look.

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).

We Love Role-Play is now open!

We <3 Role-Play  is now open! or should be, if everything goes according to plan :) I managed to fit lots of stuff from the event into this post - dress (obviously), hair, skin and furniture.  

The Herbalist Worktable from Aisling, which you can see in the background above,  is cool as all-get-out and I find it insane that it's only 7 land impact. If it was prim rather than mesh, can you imagine how much of your allowance it would eat up? I love that it incorporates plants and the leafed tree branch. It comes with a hud that allows you to change the colour of the wood and turn the prim shadow on or off.
