Myconos

Another group gift today, this time from BlackRose.  The very generous designer has given us two dresses, with two very different textures.  The one I’m wearing here is the black lace version, and there is also a black floral design included as well.

An apple a day….

An apple like this won’t keep this teacher away.  Kerryth from Spyralle has put the Floriade boho dress on special at the Secret Wednesday April Yard Sale!

Now – I know what you’re thinking – “Aeon, we KNOW you are not partial to long mesh dresses, they don’t dance well!  You’ve told us time and time again!”

Well, that’s true.  And Kerryth is a smart cookie, and has added a flexi overskirt that swishes and dances like a dream.

Floriade comes in seven mesh sizes and 8 wonderful colours.  You had to know I’d pick green (apple) first.

Now, be warned – Kerryth says that Floriade  will be retired soon – so this is your chance to catch this deal before it disappears.   I think that I need to run back to Secret Wednesday for another stunning colour!

Mahalo, and aloha!


Kelly

The group gift from FA Creations this month is this great casual strappy dress in standard mesh sizes.  It comes with a six colour HUD to change the belt colour, and it fits like a dream on my standard small shape with no tweaking yay!

Dazie, Dazie…

Give me your answer do
I’m half crazy all for the love of you

Hmm, does anyone but me hear the slowing voice of HAL when they read those words?

Blue Moon Enterprises offers the exclusive Dazie at the April Fair Play.   Dazie definitely evokes a more elegant age, but is perfectly appropriate with a steampunk theme or just as a casual long dress.

Dazie is available in three colour schemes, purple, amber, and teal.  The umbrella is available in the Fair Play Gacha game, and comes with a colour-change HUD to select between the different detail colours.

Kudos to Solas for her adoption of fitmesh for the mesh bodies!   I can’t get over how easy it has become for the customer to get the layered look of mesh with a great fit.  I think I’m becoming spoiled.

The amber wasn’t my favourite starting out, but may have become so by the time this shoot was completed.

And, just for grins, a different hairstyle with the teal, featuring Alli & Ali’s Almeda.

Solas made up an extra little treat – there’s a wonderful little matching bag (also with colour-choice HUD) offered as a gift at the Fair Play stall!

Give me your answer, do….

My answer?  A resounding yes!

Mahalo, and aloha!


Haute

I really wanted to do a post just focusing on makeup, but I was a little frustrated in finding a good pose to show off my fancy fake nails.  So rather than doing a lipstick/eyeshadow post that’s over in one sentence, here’s the full outfit…

makeup_003

I haven’t made the jump to a mesh head as yet (none of them look enough like me, especially the eyes), so I still get to use all my old system layer makeup 🙂

Now, a story about the nails for you: Aeon and I were running around at an event some time ago looking at various things when we came across these nails.  I thought they were pretty amazing and went into raptures over them, but I wasn’t keen enough to buy them on the spot.  I tend to want to go look at things in-store and make sure of prices and so on and so forth.  I’m a pretty picky shopper.

So, while I was distracted with something else, Aeon snuck back to the store and bought them for me (just one of the reasons I love her)!  And herein lies the “be a careful shopper” lesson: the “nails” were in reality a texture set for ZOZ mesh nails, which at the time I didn’t have.  And you can’t blame either of us: the advertisement in the store gave no indication that this was so.  Just a pic of the nails, permissions, a “Slink compatible” indication, and a price.  If I’d visited the store first I would have been familiar with ZOZ and known.  Never mind, as you can see, I ended up getting the nail base, and oh, I do still love the little corset textures on them!

I hope you like the rest of the look!

Heat

A daring gown today from Paisley Daisy!  I call this my OMG gown as every time I put it on I go “OMG I can’t believe I’m going to wear this out in public” 🙂

It’s a fantastic little thing to nearly wear, and I guarantee you’ll get comments.  The hair I’m wearing goes a long way to help with my ummm embarrassment level too when wearing this gown, as it’s completely sheer at the breast level.

Raven and Rose

Blue’s post yesterday inspired me… and so rather than going blond today, I thought I’d try something a little.. darker.  Just right, I think, for Mindy, new at Carrie’s Lingerie!

MindyRose_c008

Mindy comes in six lovely white-and-pastel combinations, with both standard SL layers and Omega appliers.  All elements are individually selectable!

Hmm, what do you think?  Ginger is certainly me, but I might do better raven than blond?

Stop by and take a look in the New Release pit at Carrie’s Lingerie today, for this and Carrie’s other wonderful offerings!

Mahalo, and aloha!


Spring green

Spring is in full swing and here’s a lovely dress from Pulcino available for free on the Kiyomizu Spring Hunt 2016.  It coming in standard mesh sizings and includes a texture HUD with five pretty spring colours.

A plain dress like this can always stand some fancy jewelry, so I chose to pair it with this lovely orchid set from Beloved, one of my favourite jewelry designers in SL!

Rock and roll!

I can hear the boys from Spinal Tap shouting that as they tried to find the stage!  Here’s an outfit I wore to a rock and roll themed party on the weekend.
