What’s happening in Second Life?

InterSections

My lovely friend Sarah introduced me to the Gem Preiz’s The Anthropic Principle (supported by the Linden Endowment for the Arts) a week ago, and rather challenged me to incorporate it in my photographs.  You can learn much more about the sim here.   It’s a large sprawling cityscape in black and neon, and is truly amazing to wander about!

It seemed a good opportunity to show you Spyralle’s new offering for Genre this month, the Face Inter Face.

  • GRAVES — G257 Mainframe Bodysuit (blue)
  • Spyralle — Face Inter Face Headpiece and HUD (exclusive at Genre)
  • AITUI — Mechanical Wings –  Majesty Snowbird +HUD Rare (Gacha item)
  • [Kikay] — Mega Lay Cutie pose

Face Inter Face calls back to an earlier piece that Spyralle did for Genre some years ago.  It’s glasses, a heads-up display, and a restricted message sender all at the same time.  It features a texture-change hud to turn the sunglasses on/off and select one of four different colours, as well as select textures for the little balls and their support pieces.  You can’t see the headband with my hair, but the headband terminates in ring-like headphone speakers for quality audio reception.  😉

Face Inter Face allows the user to project one of several little fractal images on the screen, as well as a couple of emoticons and (my favourite) the letters “afk” and “brb”.  It’s very cute!

A lovely extension of this would be to allow the user to drop in their own small image and toggle through those for the heads-up display.  I’ll have to suggest that to Kerryth…..

For now, stop by Genre before June 11 and pick up a demo.  This is a lovely tech piece, and will easily complement a futuristic or post-apocalyptic get-up.  Or anything else you might think of pairing it with!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

Wickedly Enchanting

Aeon Events, Fashion, LotD, Sponsored

Is anything so full of Enchantment as the gowns created by Bee and Solas for Silvan Moon Designs?  The fabulous duo brings you Lady Gothel for the May 2017 Rapunzel-themed Enchantment event.

Lady Gothel comes in five colours named (more-or-less) after the deadly sins.  My favourite colours aren’t hard to spot.  I like strong colours, and greens and blues and purples most of all.

I’ve always been an opaque-gemstone kind of girl.  Opal and lapis lazuli may be my favourites.  I’ve had this lovely lapis set from Evelock for ages, but you would think that Evelock and Silvan Moon worked together to create a matched set.

For those of you who may not know, Mother Gothel, the namesake of this gown, was the “evil witch” who kept Rapunzel locked away in her tower from Tangled, the Disney adaptation of the faerie tale.  She’s an interesting character, but I  prefer the representation from Into the Woods, the faerie tale play from Steven Sondheim.  Something about the depth of the Witch, her fear of loss — her actions become understandable, perhaps even forgiveable.

But I digress.

Wicked or not, let Silvan Moon Designs cast their spell over you… stop by Enchantment before this fleeting dream slips away.

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

Butterflies

Aeon Events, LotD, Reviews, Sponsored

Kerryth at Spyralle has a lovely spring/summer dress for you, exclusively at the current round at Swank.  Lila is a mesh dress in four lovely palettes, each one featuring the lovely multicolour fractal patterns you’ve come to love in Kerryth’s work.

EarthStones’ Flight of Fancy is the perfect accent to Lila.  Flight‘s HUD allows you to select bead and wing stone colours from three different textures.  The blue/green ‘swallowtail’ scheme is perfect for Lila blue!

Due to changing customer demand, Kerryth is trying something new.  The standard five rigged mesh sizes are being sold in one box, and fitmesh for Maitreya Lara, both SLink bodies, and all three Belleza bodies is sold together in the other box.  The idea is to help cut down on the unused copies that you either delete or sit around cluttering up your inventory.  The demo box (free, of course!) has all sizes in it.  But make sure that you get the right one when you purchase!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

A thousand nights and a night

Solas and Bee at Silvan Moon Designs have a lovely exclusive for you at We Love Role Play this month: the beautiful Song of Shaherazade.

Song of Shaherazade is a single-piece mesh available in in fitmesh for SLink Physique and Maitreya Lara only.

Shaherazad is available in six lovely colours — black, blue, green, purple, white and red.  Bee’s texturing is just amazing: I love the hip scarf and the the coin detail on the top.

I think I’ve blogged the Alae Atrae neckpiece from Rowena’s Designs before: it’s a beautiful neckpiece featuring an ankh and spine-wing motif, with a colour selection HUD.

Song of Shaherazade is a lovely outfit with a Indian/middle-eastern period feel, but it’s only around this month!  Stop by We Love Role Play and take a look today!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

This tank and pantie set is my absolute fav pick from the current FaMESHed event!  FaMESHed are celebrating five years in operation this month, and as usual, the event is fantastic, if you have the patience to get in!

The tank is L$149 and the panties are L$99.  Both come in fitmesh sizes for Maitreya, Slink Physique and Hourglass, and Belleza Isis and Freya.  You can choose from ten colors, each sold separately.  Both the tank and the panties include a three texture HUD in plain and two cute designs.

Also, nearly all the creators at the event are offering a free gift at their stalls (FaMESHed free group join required).  I’ve placed what is again my pick of the best gift as my photo backdrop.  This all mesh lattice art is wonderful, and each is only 2 LI as supplied by the creator (I’m showing two of them side by side here).  As they are mod, you can stretch them to whatever size you need!

I’m sure I’ll show you some more gifts from the event in coming days.  Stay tuned!

Faerie of the star

Aeon Events, LotD, Requested, Reviews

A sweet friend gave me the title Faerie of the Star a long time back… and it is silly and fun and something I treasure.  And Kerryth at Spyralle has created an outfit that matches that title: the lovely Starseeker, exclusive for Fantasy Faire 2017!

This fae may not have typical wings, but her heart and soul soars in a shower of stars.  Starseeker includes a full-body-and-face tattoo (System and Omega appliers) with a set of flexi drape pieces and mesh arm vanes and headpiece/crown.   The Crown and armpieces are included with Starseeker, but are also available as a separate package.

The headpiece is a beautiful work of art.  Star-particles twinkle between the wings, and shower softly from either side.  Both side and centre effects may be turned on or off separately.  The arm vanes likewise issue a gentle shower of stars and may also be turned off as desired.  Little invisible star trails (particle generators) may be added to each hand.

If that weren’t enough, Spyralle has collaborated with Tai’Dyed to include a beautiful matching version of the Nebula dance attachments.  This is a set of 22 flexi attachments that swirl about you as you move.  The effect is stunning and must be seen to be believed!  You can pick and choose from the 22 included attachments to achieve the right look for you – or run out your maximum allowed attachments!

This outfit was made for dancing, and is absolutely gorgeous in low light.  It may be my favourite creation from Kerryth and Spyralle yet.  What’s best is that 100% of the proceeds from these items go to Relay for Life.  You can support The American Cancer Society and shine as a star at the same time!

I’ve left one more image with the dancing whisps for you on my flickr page.  It’s my favourite, and a little present for you.

Thank you so much for following us, I love bringing you some of the treasures of SecondLife!

Mahalo nui loa!  A hui hou!

Solas and Bee at Silvan Moon Designs have a wonderful treat for you at Shiny Shabby!  Spirit Maiden is a lovely two-part mesh gown (gown and overskirt) for SLink Physique and Maitreya Lara in five wonderful colours!

I really love this necklace.  Crescent Moon from Caverna Obscura features a little bling spot, but I’ll admit that I’m not crazy about bling.  Fortunately, the necklace is mod, so I could go in, edit linked, find the bling and remove it.  Perfect!

Spirit Maiden is available in five lovely shades but ONLY for Lara and Physique mesh bodies.  SL fashion definitely seems to be favouring these two bodies!  Stop by Shiny Shabby, pick up a demo, and give it a test drive!

There’s just something about tractors

One more set of goodies from Petite Mort‘s in-store Easter egg hunt!  I’m not usually a “shorts” kind of girl in-world, but these are just too much fun!

All of Petite Mort‘s hunt items are fitmesh for Maitreya Lara, SLink Physique and Hourglass, and Belleeza Freya, Isis, and Venus mesh bodies.

Any later in the season and sitting on that sheet metal might be too hot to handle!  But don’t you wait any longer, hidden eggs don’t stay good forever!  (important safety tip)

Please visit Petite Mort before this hunt is over, and check out all the lovelies there for you!  Mahalo!  A hui hou!

Hauʻoli lā Pakoa!

Your friends at Petite Mort have a lovely little Easter Egg hunt going on currently at the Petite Mort store.  There are seven eggs to find (and a beautiful little basket to put them in), and each egg holds a lovely PM treat!

The Celestial Compass pendant from .Eldritch. carries just the right mystical motif for me.  The fact that it makes me think of script from the Doctor’s homeworld is just a bonus.

  • GOOSE — old wooden bench pose

I’ll admit, I really love the foil flash tattoo from Alaska Metro, it suits me — and many of the clothing items I like to show you!

Blue/Green Ombre comes in fitmesh for Belleza Freya, Isis, and Venus, Maitreya Lara, and SLink Hourglass and Physique.  That’s fitmesh for all of your needs!

Stop on by Petite Mort, grab a free Easter basket, and start hunting for eggs.  Six are $10L each, and a seventh golden one is free!  You so don’t want to miss this leap into spring!  Hauʻoli lā hPakoa!  Happy Easter!
