A merry old elf

Okay, perhaps not so old… but decidedly merry.  “Naughty or Nice” seems rather overdone at this point… and I really didn’t want to title a post featuring pictures of me “ho ho ho”!

**Glitter has a lovely advent calendar running this month, with gifts available even after each day has gone by!  This offering is a lovely little Miss Santa outfit featuring the dress and corset-style belt.

Boots from Rowena’s Designs and some tights with a colour-change HUD from Baby Monkey (group giftie!) keep me warm against the snowy weather outside.  The tights are offered both in standard layers and appliers for mesh bodies!

Sit on my lap and whisper in my ear what you want for a present!Santa_003

The corset is removable for a less racy look.

Glitter’s outfit includes a hat in multiple sizes, but I have such issues with hats in-world.  I’ve replaced it with a hat-and-hair combination from *ARGRACE*.  This was a giftie from last year, so it may not be currently available.  The colour doesn’t match perfectly, but it’s pretty close, and the hair works so much better.

If you’re willing to futz with the hat/hair problem, the Glitter hat comes in five sizes, and has stars to match the coat.  I’ts really quite lovely!

Contrary to popular belief, you don’t lose more heat through your head than any other bit of uncovered skin – we just tend to leave that part of our body uncovered, resulting in more heat loss.   So whatever your choice, cover up and stay warm out there!

Mahalo and Mele Kalikimaka!


POE 8 part 9

The 8th annual Peace on Earth hunt is certainly turning up some nice gowns!  Today we have Silent by KL Couture.  The gown is system with flexi skirts, and the system layers also come with appliers for Belleza, Maitreya, Omega, EVE, and Lolas.  The star broach is unfortunately not modifiable nor does it have a resize script, so judicious placement is called for to get it to look just right.  Other than that, a lovely older style gown that dances wonderfully well with its long train.

I’ve added the Peace Dove Earrings, also found at POE 8, to complete the look:

POE 8 part 7

In the interests of completeness, I’m showing you this outfit 🙂 I think this is the only steampunk type outfit I have in over 700 outfits in my inventory, so as you can guess, steampunk is not really my thing.

The outfit from ShuShu has multiple options for the poncho, and two mesh dresses in standard sizing.  However, do be warned, this is a walking around dress, as your arms are completely alpha-ed out and “replacement” arms and hands are part of the dress!  Certainly not for dancing.  The outfit also includes the mask, hair, and hat!

The boots are pretty awesome though 🙂

POE 8 part 8

I know, there’s the spirit of season that doesn’t need the fancies, that’s all about being together, about sharing joy and love, good food and good stories.  I love that spirit of the season.

But you know… I love the other spirit of the season.  The parties, the lights, the elegance.  There’s magic in that, too.

The Peace on Earth gift from **Glitter takes me away to a beautiful holiday ball.  This medieval-inspired full gown has a simple elegance that allows your inner beauty to shine.

While the shawl is combined with the dress, Glitter includes the dress without the shawl, effectively allowing you to remove it for dancing.  Glitter includes five mesh sizes per version (with and without the shawl).  It works very nicely with both SL standard layers and Slink Physique (and presumably other mesh bodies as well).

Blue took some wonderful shots of this dress, and I simply must show them off – because I can!

I was lucky enough to obtain the perfect jewelry for the holiday season from the lucky letter presents at EarthStones.  The Yule choker and earrings look perfect for the holiday soiree!

After seeing this dress, which appears to be specially made for the PoE hunt (not available for sale!), I’m intrigued by the rest of Glitter’s offerings.  This is a remarkable piece, and definitely worth the look!

As always, wishing you the best for this holiday season, and all year ’round!

Mahalo and aloha!


POE 8 Part 6

Oh my, I’m not sure I’m qualified to be an angel, however this outfit from ALB Dream Fashion certainly makes me look like one!  Another fantastic gown found as part of the 8th annual Peace on Earth hunt, the outfit consists of a mesh gown in standard sizing.  And wings!  And earrings!!  And a necklace!!! And a headpiece!!!!  And a chest piece!!!!!  And high heels for Slink, TMP, and Belleza!!!!!!

Sorry about the exclamation marks, I got a little carried away by the Ana’s generosity 🙂

A Season for Holly

I recently stopped by Blue Moon Enterprises while travelling across SL on the Peace on Earth 8 hunt.  I was pleasantly surprised to not only find their treasure for PoE (to be shown later), but a lovely gown offered as a gift for their group members.

The Lady Sophie is a medieval-inspired gown offered in five mesh sizes.   The gift is in Holly – just my colour – but the gown itself is for sale in five shades, including night (black), ruby (red), royal (blue) and peace (a pale blue-white).  While it’s perfect for a seasonal party, it’s beautiful year-round.

I’ve accompanied Lady Sophie with the POE8 hunt item from Beloved: the Nola choker and earrings.    The Nola has a texture-change HUD with four different jewel textures – aquamarine, diamond, emerald and ruby.  The circlet is part of a lovely set from BL that includes the circlet, arm and leg bands, and a belt.

A lovely necklace by Dressed by Lexi today for the 8th annual Peace on Earth hunt (and for our 100th post!)  This has my favourite resizer script too, allowing you to stretch the object by percentages in all three dimensions independently for a perfect fit:

Today’s gown from the 8th annual Peace on Earth hunt is from Shoenique.  The gown is in mesh in standard sizing and comes with a mesh scarf and flexi drapes.  The photo doesn’t really do this gown justice as it is materials enabled and all the straps and highlights are in golden glitter that reflects as you move.  It’s really lovely!

Moments of elegance

Gia Aulder at Blonde Moments brings us a lovely sequined cocktail dress, suitable for a classy night out dancing.  The mesh gown comes in five sizes, and includes an optional matching panty (in standard layer and Lena and Maitreya appliers).

BlondMoment_006

The gown is high-cut at the thigh, just perfect for dancing, and the prim bustle moves very nicely, giving just the right flair.

BlondMoment_008

Gia includes a lovely pair of heels matched to the dress with this outfit.  Versions are included for Maitreya and Slink highs, which make me a bit too wobbly.  They’re awfully lovely, though, and I’m tempted to go out and get some Slink High Feet just so I can wear them!

Blonde Moments currently has a moderately small store, but stocks some lovely outfits, with demos available for nearly all of the products.  Take a look and see what you think!
