Butterflies and Lace

This gown looks incredible.  It’s another prize from the Womenstuff hunt, which is now sadly closed.  I hope you didn’t miss out.

The outfit comes with a modesty layer and a clothing layer (both in system and appliers for Omega, Slink, Maitreya, and Belleza), the flexi-prim gown, and the matching heels.  Also included is the chain armlet.

It’s funny, but only a few weeks ago, I would have had nothing negative to say about something a beautiful as this.  It dances divinely, and looks elegant and sexy.  I would have happily worn it out dancing to Franks or a ball at Eden.  However, now we have jellydolls.  And this outfit including my hairstyle comes in at a render complexity of over 462,000.

Based on anecdotal evidence from people I’ve talked to with a range of graphics cards, a SWAG would be that wearing this would have you rendered as a jellydoll for over half the people at Franks.

It’s sure lovely to photograph though!

Lounge about

Pink is not a redhead’s color.  I’ve told you before.  *Sigh* where’s the dye bottle?

This casual shorts and shirt set is all one piece in rigged mesh standard sizes.  I’m wearing it with some sandals, but it would be perfect for lounging around at home in bare feet too!

Tangerine

Well, rompers are not going away any time soon, at least not this summer!  Here’s a set from Paisley Daisy 🙂

These are just in standard size rigged mesh.  I wish Paisley Daisy would start doing fitmesh, especially for some of their lovely gauzy gowns!  But this fits Lara no problems, and just a little messing with the alpha on the HUD 🙂

Romantic look

We do a weekly event at Eden called Heart and Soul, usually with our fantastic manager and DJ Nandi.  They are little mini-themed events with a small contest and this one was “Best in Romantic Look”.  So I thought I’d showcase one of the hair styles that I picked up at Hair Fair 2016.  I’ve photographed this in my gallery of hair styles from the event, but in that I did all the hair styles in one pose, and when I got to this one, I realized it didn’t really do it justice.  So, here’s a better photo 🙂

The dress is in standard rigged mesh sizes, and I’ve had it so long when I got this outfit together for the event, I wasn’t even wearing Slink hands or feet, eeks.  It was a gift for a hunt or an event, so it may or may not be available in store.

Studio Lighting

As you can imagine, Aeon and I spend quite a bit of time either out looking for locations to shoot photographs, or in our little photo studio.  We love using the advanced lighting features, in particular projector lights to get shadows where we want them, and to eliminate shadows where we don’t want them 🙂

We have just been using simple prim cylinders as our lighting, but it sure doesn’t look very professional, especially if we invite someone over to photograph them.  So with that in mind, I’ve just created this studio light.

2 LI, scripted on/off with projector color and settings persistence.  As soon as I do a HUD for it, it will be available on the marketplace.

This looks much more professional!

Lovelace

It’s lingerie day today!  Another prize from the Womenstuff Hunt, this sexy lingerie from Elle may be just the thing to wear to welcome home your special someone 🙂

The hunt gift is in magenta, but it’s also available in teal, red, white, black, purple, and sky blue.  It’s system and comes with appliers for TMP, Omega, Slink, Maitreya, Belleza, and LolaTango.  Applier clothing can look wonderful if the designer takes care, and I think they’ve done a remarkable job with this lovely set!

And the choker with the little bell just makes it purrrfect!

Breezy Blooms

Another wonderful gift from the Womenstuff Hunt.  I hope you’ve all run out and found some great stuff!

breezy_003

This prom gown looks just fab, and is in standard sizes. fitmesh, plus specific fitmesh sizes for Maitreya and Slink.  The attached flexi shirts and sleeves make the dress, but they, along with the corsage, are very expensive in terms or render complexity.  The entire outfit here comes in at 287,812!

Camos

I’ve always liked the motto that’s been used by at least one Australian warship: “We fight for peace”.  On that note, another outfit from the Womenstuff Hunt.  Hurry, hurry, it finishes at the end of the month!

camo_003

Goodness, another huge list of fitmesh in addition to standard sizes.  There are fitmesh sizes for Belleza Venus, Freya, and Isis, Maitreya Lara, Slink Hourglass and Physique, Tonic Curvy, and TMP (TMP is the top only).  The outfit by Shae’s Creations also includes some camo flipflops for system feet, Belleza, Slink and Maitreya, but would you wear flipflops into battle?

I pulled on my trusty combat boots and selected some weaponry from MTA 🙂
