a hidden oasis

As the heat of the afternoon fell away and softer breezes blew across the sands, she slipped from the safety of the seraglio and out to visit her hidden oasis… a place of beauty and respite.

I’m a sucker for beautiful silks, diaphanous and flowing.  Caverna Obscura surely has mastered this art, combining fitmesh for those of us who love our mesh bodies with flexiprims for skirts.  Starlight certainly is an excellent example.  I stumbled across it while looking for some white silks for a recent event at Eden, and immediately fell in love.

Starlight features fitmesh sleeves, top, and skirt — each in a opaque and diaphanous fitmesh and rigged mesh version, with flexiprim silks to augment.  But wait, Aeon, you say!  long mesh skirting is horrid for dancing, you always say so!   Ahhhh, but Caverna was thinking ahead: there’s a full flexi skirt in here as well, so that nothing impedes your movement!

All of the floral enhancements (with exception of Persefona’s wreath crown) are separate mesh pieces, and can be worn or left off at your convenience.  This is truly an amazing piece, and a beautiful addition to Caverna’s line.

Join me at the oasis… feel the cool waters at your feet, the lovely breeze at your cheek, whispering through your hair….

Mahalo!   A hui hou!


embers of a raging fire

The Santa Rosa fire caused devastation, taking the homes and properties of so many.  Kerryth at Spyralle turned the tragedy of the destruction of the Coffey Park neighbourhood to art in Ignis, a beautiful gown for the Trick or Treat Lane event, in memory of all the joys that lived there.  You can find it at Trick or Treat Lane, but only for a limited time!

There are three beautiful textures, but Ember matched my fiery curls just right.

All Hallow’s is past, but Trick or Treat Lane goes on until November 3rd.  Don’t miss out on this fiery beauty!

Aloha!  A hui hou!


Death and all her friends

Some music, because Whit taught me.  🙂   Will I lose friends for Coldplay?

I know, it’s already all Hallow’s on the far side of the world, but in Europe and the Americas we’re still in the Eve!  Happy Hallowe’en, my lovely friends!  How about a little gift from G Field today?  The wonderful Roodvosje shared Death Girl in her lovely post last week, and I fell so in love with it that I had to share it with you in my own way!

Black is tough to wear — I had to weave special darke magicks about it to keep the white powder sugar that falls from my donuts from showing against it… but the cloak has such a lovely deep crimson lining and beautiful buckle detail!

A quick note about the hood.  Like hats, hoods are tricky, only moreso.  G Field did a fantastic job in leaving enough hair space around the skull, so I was able to find something.  I love Analog Dog, and Val fit very nicely.  I had to do a little editing on some of the strands on the back of my head — you can edit, and go into “edit linked” mode and shrink those pesky pokers and move them individually.  I did a larger piece on this a year or so ago, it’s tricky work but not bad.  FIRST FIRST FIRST, always make a copy of the hair!  The hair will always look horrid when you take the hood off, so you want to work with a copy!

I’m so totally in love with this dress and cloak that I think I’ll keep it about.. for whenever I need to show my darke side.

Happy Hallowe’en everyone!  Mahalo — a hui hou!

Kazumi

I just got to take a look at some lovelies from the recent Rock Your Rack event (sadly now over), and I wanted to share some pretties that I picked up.  Spyralle offered the lovely Kazumi jacket and pants outfit in four lovely shades.  

I picked up these boots as a group gift at .:Ecce Bellus:..   They’re lovely, and also sold in a light taupe shade for a VERY reasonable price!  I couldn’t resist picking up both.

I’m hoping Kerryth will get Kazumi into the stores soon. In the meantime, stop by and take a look, Spyralle is involved in all kinds of events and hunts right now — don’t miss out!

Mahalo!   A hui hou!


My namesake

Two lovely friends found the perfect dress for me — Mahina by [AdN] Designs.  It’s a light and fluttery beach dress, a perfect little flirty fashion as you hit the waves.

Mahina features a lovely little colour-texture HUD, but I think I’m in love with the rainbow!

Mahalo nui loa to Frani and Keko for my lovely gift.  You two are so sweet and I’m so happy that you’re part of my life!  And thank you, dear readers, for stopping by to share!

Mahalo!   A hui hou!


All in time

The Fallen Gods Decennial is on, and WOW are there a lot of exciting things happening!   There’s a huge hunt as well as lots of side events.  One of the little fun things is a little matchmaker fortune-teller booth at Fallen Gods, and you can win the Chronos Coal Black full avatar.  On top of that, the hunt item from Fallen Gods is an alternate skin for Chronos, in water gold.  So I, of course, had to play mix and match with them!   Chronos features a variegated skin, monokini, headpiece, hair, staff, and backpiece, as well as a little swirl of butterflies.  It’s all here!  

The full avatar gift from the matchmaker at Fallen Gods includes the Coal Gold skin, but I swapped out the hair for Empty Gold from Magika.  It’s a little more my colour, and still works with the skin!  The backpiece and staff might be a little much for dancing, but are fantastic for making your shining presence known!

Chronos also comes with some bluer-than-blue omega eye appliers,  which are pretty decent, but I happened to pick up a lovely pair of Schadenfreude Moon in my eyes from the recent The Coven hunt, which seemed just perfect for this outfit! 

The Fallen Gods Decennial goes on for the whole month of October, but stop by soon!  Enjoy the hunt and all the associated events, there’s too much fun out there to be had!

Spirit of Hope

One of the things I’m most happy about in Second Life is that we’re not just a game, we’re not just playing about, we do try to make a difference.  Creations for Parkinson’s has organised a major Hallowe’en event to support the Michael J. Fox Foundation’s Team Fox in support of research of Parkinson’s Disease.  100 per cent of all proceeds from the Gotham Island Event will be donated to Team Fox!

Solas and Bee at Silvan Moon Designs are taking part with two wonderful creations.  Spirit of Hope is an all fitmesh gown and overskirt for SLink Physique and Maitreya Lara.  It is beautiful and simple and elegant.

Spirit‘s overskirt features beautiful pale lavender floral accents that complement the lavender skirting on the gown.  Bee has really outdone herself with the texturing here!

Please visit Gotham Island Event and financially support the fight to end Parkinson’s Disease.  Researchers are making progress, but they need the funding to carry out the work!  We can end this debilitating syndrome!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!
