What’s happening in Second Life?

Vellista Evenstar

Aeon Events, Fashion, LotD, Reviews, Sponsored

Aloha, my friends!  Some lovely little treasures to share with you that I found at We Love Role Play.  I was a bit late getting to the event this month, so we’re a little behind!  Today I’d like to show the Vellista tunic from Senzifine.  It’s a lovely long-sleeved bare-shouldered tunic that can double as a dress.  I paired it with some leggings from Silvan Moon Designs’ Ranger of Islavare outfit, and the result is pretty magical.

This outfit just called out for some of my favourite jewelry — the Lapis necklace and earrings from Evelock and Spyralle‘s Forest Edge mask.

Just as the fae, all things are fleeting.  We’ve got about a week left for this month’s We Love Role Play, and about that much time for one of my favourite pose makers.  an lar [poses] is closing at the end of this month, and all her poses are half-price.  Their easy gentle style has really appealed to me, and I’ll be sorry to see them go.

So, you know — the lesson in everything is to take advantage of what comes your way, for you know not when it will vanish like a sparkled dream.

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

Lizette Argent

Aeon Events, LotD, Reviews, Sponsored

I always love We Love Role Play, it’s a really nicely-sized event, and there are so many wonderful things to discover.  Today I’d like to show you Lizette Argent Wench dress set by Silvan Moon Designs exclusively at the event!

The Gypsy necklace and earring set from/me EarthStones is a perfect complement to this look!

Lizette Argent is a three-piece set, with separate gown, vest and apron that could be worn separately.

Lizette Argent is available in seven different lovely earthy tones.  I’ll admit, I almost always try the green shades first… but I loved the natural (shown above) so much that I have focused in that one.  Nevertheless, the other shades are gorgeous, and there’s almost certainly something here to draw your interest.

 

Please stop by We Love Role Play today, and take a look at everything they have to offer.  You’ll leave a few lindens lighter… but much happier!

Mahalo!  A hui hou kakou!

About face

Aeon Events, LotD, Reviews, Sponsored

I don’t usually focus on lippy or other makeup in my blog posts — that requires too much attention to my face for me to be comfortable with! I like my curly ginger hair, to the length that I get grumpy when I have to change it.  But the New Wave makeup set from AlaskaMetro for Rock Your Rack 2018 was just too much fun to play with, and it created a whole new fun look.

There’s a lovely Bowie/Starman-esque purple glitter lightning bolt included in this set.  I’m not sure I’ve got the best hairstyle to complement it, but I’m going to have to go searching more, it’s too cool to neglect!

I don’t know what to make of the asymmetric look, except that I really actually like it a lot.  I think this might be my favourite of the bunch!

New Wave has five different eye and lippy designs, available singly or as a fatpack, and all of the proceeds go to the National Breast Cancer Foundation.  WOW!

It’s amazing what looks good, feels good makeup-wise with dark hair.  I feel like I can get away with all kinds of amazing brightly-coloured striking looks  than I can with my ginger!  All the same, I’ll probably save these for those days when I need to step outside myself…. and go back to my ginger tomorrow.  🙂

Mahalo, my friends!  A hui hou kākou!

Twilight Dreams

Aeon Events, LotD, Reviews, Sponsored

Aloha, my friends, I hope that you are having a wonderful Monday!  Normally I don’t like to split up different textures of the same clothing item into different days — it kind of feels like cheating — but I had to do a follow-up post on Spyralle‘s Sybil.  The very day after I published my previous post on Sybil, Kerryth introduced one additional texture that I just had to have — the lovely Twilight.

Kerryth’s textures are always lovely, but I really love the glyphs on this one more than anything — I see a Moon and stars and dancers.  Could there be anything more me?

I’ve paired this with the beautiful The Moon and Stars for you necklace and earrings from Maxi Gossamer — just to match the lovely glyphs.

My friends, Spoonful of Sugar will be over before you know it.  Stop by, find some lovely things, and help out MSF.

Mahalo!  A hui hou kakou!

Captured in the Net

Jaz Events, Fashion, Reviews

I came across this lovely net top at the Liaison Collaborative event, and just squeaked it in to the blog – the event is only through the 26th so don’t wait on this one!

I am not generally a fan of the off-the-shoulder look but this one, Aly by Baiastice, just seemed to work really well to me. It comes in 12 colors, with and without the bra, plus a fat pack with four additional colors and the ability to mix and match the bra colors.

Pose: GP Emma 8 by An Lar

The see through of the net is really nicely done and gives this top a fun summery look.

And of course… the bra is optional… if you’re feeling a little daring with that net look…

Is it cold in here or is it just me? 😉 Cheers!

Hair Fair 2018

blue Events

Hair Fair is one of my absolute favorite events of the SL year!  There lots and lots of new hairstyles to look at, and a lot of the creators are very generous with free (or nearly free) gifties!

Here are photos of nearly all the gift hairstyles available this year.  When you go, don’t forget to buy a bandana to support Wigs for Kids, and hopefully you’ll support the creators by grabbing some of their for sale hairstyles too!  Specific percentages of each sale also go to Wigs for Kids, so this is a perfect time to update your look and help out a fabulous charity.

Hair Fair 2018 runs from today until the 7th of October.  Don’t miss out!

All the hairstyles are available for no more than L$1 at the event.  Here’s a list of most of the creator’s stores:

 

Powers of Prediction

Aeon Events, Fashion, LotD, Reviews, Sponsored

I foresee people coming together to help out those less fortunate.  Hey, look at that, I’m right! Don’t call me a Sybil, that’s really just the beautiful new dress that Kerryth at Spyralle has created for Spoonful of Sugar, an event to help support Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) (Doctors Without Borders).

So I’m always on the prowl for good new hair.  Curly hair is rough — there’s lots of mesh hair for straight locks, but my curls are rough to reproduce in-world.  Often the hair I wear for walking around in-world is different from what I wear for photos — hair with flexies is rough on photos, but it can sure look good as you dance or walk about in-world.  So I was really excited to find Leela from Analog Dog at SoS.  It’s not an exclusive there — it’s also at the mainstore — but I believe that the purchases at SoS contribute to MSF, so it’s a good time to buy!  Leela is very similar to my go-to hair (Annie, also from Analog Dog) — but it’s a bit longer, with a lovely curl over my right eye.  🙂

Sybil comes in six lovely colours, each in a “glyph” and “plain” version.  You might guess which I prefer!  I love this dress so much that I might have obtained four of the six available colours!

My friends, have a wonderful weekend.  Stop by Spoonful of Sugar, get some lovely things, and help out MSF.  The only thing better than finding new treasures is helping others out in the process!

Mahalo, my friends!  A hui hou!

A Pirate’s Treasure

Aeon Events, Fashion, LotD, Reviews, Sponsored

Yarrrr!  Happy Pirate Day, my hearties!  Perfect for the day, Solas and Bee at Silvan Moon Designs bring you Buccaneer Celeste at the September We Love Role Play event!

The tricorn is great, and I didn’t have to work too hard to find hair that I could match with it.  Fortunately, I’d just recently picked up Farryn from Truth Hair.   I’ve become quite the fan of Truth’s styling huds!

  • <K&S> — Loveliness #3 pose

Celeste is perfect for a fierce Piratess… or for a frolic about the tavern.  The boots and leggings are well-textured, and I suspect I’ll be wearing these boots in a few other outfits as well!

I hope that today and every day finds you with plenty of booty, a mug of rum, and a fresh breeze!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

Mandala

blue Events, LotD

The Frog Prince Hunt ends today (sorry, I only did it yesterday, so you get to see one outfit!).  It’s only 29 stops, so you can easily do it before the day is out!

This tropical bodysuit is the hunt prize from Ersch, and is Maitreya Lara only.  Too bad I only found this yesterday.  This pattern would suit my wonderful Aeon to a “T”.

The rigging is excellent, but the bottom could be just a little tighter.  No one will notice from a distance, though 🙂

  • Outfit: Mandala Bodysuit MAITREYA Tropical by Ersch
  • Body: Lara by Maitreya
  • Face: Jennifer by GA.EG
  • Hands: Slink Dynamic
  • Hair: Chahong by Monso

A little collaboration

Aeon Events, Fashion, Reviews

Jaz and I stopped by the latest round of COLABOR88 and found the most wonderful little outfit from Baiastice to share with you before the event closes! Ashley is a beautiful blouse-and-skirt combo that comes in a beautiful host of textures and a few options, too!  There are two textures (a solid and a print) in each bag, and opaque/gauzy options for each!  Take a look at how the denim skirt shows through that top!

Ashley is technically a single peace, but has menu options to hide or show the belt and the skirt, both of which have their own texture options.  Jaz was visiting Las Islas with me for the photoshoot, and decided to show off the top with a pair of Tinker kini bottoms from Blueberry.  Now that is a sexy look!  Mahalo, Jaz, for posing for me with such patience!

There are a bunch of other lovelies around COLABOR88, you should stop by and see what else you might find — but don’t dawdle, COLABOR88 changes on the 8th of every month!

A hui hou kākou!
