8-bit Holiday Cheer

Aeon Fashion, LotD, Reviews, Sponsored

You know that bit where you find a creator that gets you?  Someone who understands your style?  I’ll admit I’m lucky to be sponsored by a number of such wonderful artists here on the blog, but let me squee a little bit about Eclectic Stars.

8-bit Christmas is a lovely version of Eclectic Stars‘ Shifty dress.  I do so love a sweaterdress and tights in the cold months!  I’m even more amused because the 8-bit-style images both evoke the `old’ days of computer graphics… but also fit in just fine with sweater graphics limitations!

I hope wherever you are that your season is filled with bright lights and starry skies… and friends and family surrounding you.

And… as a friend pointed out to me… some of the rest of us need to always know — ʻaʻole ʻoe e hoʻokahi wale nō, ʻaʻole ʻoe e poina ʻia.  You are not alone, you are not forgotten.

Mele Kalikimaka a Hau’oli Lā Nui!

Alyssia

Just to change pace from all the PoE gifts I’ve been posting lately, here’s a group gift from Shoenique (I think it was a gift for SLF&O).

The gown is in standard size fitmesh, with specific sizes for Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink.  There are five flexi skirts making the outfit a little high in complexity, but not too bad.

Although this is fitmesh for Lara, there are a couple of breakthrough issues that could easily be fixed with a shape tweak.

I love the flower detail!  It makes the gown!

Lump of Coal

blue LotD

An amusing name of an outfit near Christmas, this jeans, boots, and sweater set was on Punk Justus’s MM board recently.

The jeans and boots are all one piece.  Both the sweater and jeans/boots come in fitmesh for classic avatars, and specific fitmesh for Maitreya, Belleza, and Slink Physique and Hourglass.

Although this is specific fitmesh for Lara, there is a tiny little bit of breakthrough at the back of the right shoulder that you can’t eliminate with the alphas in the HUD.  It’s not too noticeable though.  The texture detailing on the top of the jeans and the sweater is excellent 🙂

Virgin Snow

Another lovely hunt item for PoE9, this time from Angel Fae Boutique.

The main gown is standard size rigged mesh, although I had to wear the extra small to get a size close to my chest size 🙂  The flexi prim skirts are very pretty and give the gown some nice swish.  Unfortunately they’re all no modify and don’t contain a resizer.  I must admit that even though it’s a pain at times, and it takes patience and building skills, I love getting my gowns just the right size.  So not being able to resize these disappointed me a little.  The other thing is there are six, yes six, flexi skirts making this a fairly high complexity dress.  But it does photograph nicely 🙂

The outfit also includes the necklace, earrings, a tiara (I can’t bring myself to call it a crown), and a bracelet.  Again, all are no modify and no resizer scripts are supplied.  The only one that fit me well was the necklace.  I’m on the small side though (I’m only 1.85 metres/6 foot and a smidge tall) so your mileage may vary 🙂

Lacy green

blue LotD

What girl doesn’t love lacy lingerie to make her feel sexy?  You can find this gorgeous set for FREE at Luziefee on the Peace on Earth Hunt until January 1st!

In system layers with Omega appliers, and the shoes for Slink High are included.

I’m also wearing a jewelry set from my favorite Beloved Jewelry, also available for FREE at PoE.  A right hand ring is also included which I didn’t quite capture in the pics.

 

Winter Dandelions

blue LotD

I’m not so sure about the name of this dress.  I think I might be a little chilly in it in the middle of winter, for sure I’d need a jacket!  But it’s a very nice creation despite the name.

It’s B&T Atelier’s female contribution for POE9 (there’s a male hunt item too).  It’s a separate top and pencil skirt, with the skirt in classic fitmesh and the top in standard sizes.  But there are fitmesh sizes for both pieces for Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink Physique too!

Aloha, na hoaloha!  I’ve been wanting to share with you some of the treasures from Spyralle‘s advent calendar.  They’re utterly amazing beauty, and Kerryth has made them even better — and is giving them to you for the Holiday season!

So, You’re probably familiar with Spyralle‘s beautiful art and some very pretty mesh.  Kerryth created a lot of beautiful SL layered items featuring flexi skirts.  Well, she’s updated the SL layers, creating Omega appliers for them.  Now she’s been updating the flexi skirts as well!  And they’re your gift for being a Spyralle member!

What’s that?  Not a member of Spyralle?  There’s a group join fee whenever there are gifts available, but wow is this worth it.  Yes, I know we’re half way through december, but we still have over a week to go before the calendar runs out, and she’s had a new/revamped outfit up EVERY DAY.   You can do the math!  You truly cannot afford to miss out on this!  I’ll be showing you a few more outfits before we’re done!

Please stop on by Spyralle and take a look.  These dresses, skirts, gowns are just gorgeous.  Mahalo, Kerryth!

Christmas Angel

blue LotD

If you’ve ever wanted to be an angel and perch on a Christmas Tree, Facepalm has you covered at the POE 9 Hunt!

The outfit includes system layers and appliers for Maitreya, Slink, and Omega, the mesh wings and halo, and the lovely little white mules (which are definitely seeing duty outside this outfit!)

Shadow Hunter

blue LotD

I’m not a TV fan.  I don’t even currently own a TV.  So I had to google what shadow hunters were.  Here’s Clary Frey’s outfit done by Marquesse for the POE 9 hunt 🙂

The outfit is all one piece in standard sizes only, but the good news is it has a HUD that allows you to change the color of the jacket, pants, and shirt all independently. Eight colors for the jacket and pants, and ten for the shirt.

Also included are shoes for Slink Mids, and the same shoes in unrigged mesh.

Have you been to 2nd Level yet?   No?  WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? There are SOOO many pretties!  Take a look at Dora from GLITTER, a lovely top-and-leggings combo.   Mind you, I love dresses and skirts, but some places are just too chilly for that in the winter — so bring on the leggings and tights!

Dora’s top and leggings are separate pieces, each rigged mesh component in the five standard sizes.  You can mix and match to get your look!

Mahalo, all!  A hui hou!
