A’a i ka hula!

Aeon Fashion, LotD, Reviews, Sponsored

Happy Aloha Friday, my friends!  I get to share a beautiful new ti pa’u with you, a traditional hula skirt made from ti leaves.  It’s all in mesh from Island Style Designs!  Leave the grass skirts behind, and please please please let’s not talk about the abomination of coconut bras.  (although you may want to see the note on coconut bras at the end of this older post).   

  • Island Style Designs — Hula Girl mesh hula outfit (Maitreya/Physique fitmesh/standard 5 rigged mesh sizes) (includes mesh ti skirt, white top, hibiscus haku lei with ferns, kukui necklace, plumeria lei, and hibiscus flowers for your ear — all of the items that you see here except for the kupe’e and kakau, the anklets/bracelets and tattoo!)
  • ::*) Charmed (*:: —  plumeria kupe’e (anklet and bracelet) (from Ti-Leaf skirt, 30cm, Pearl)
  • Juna Artistic Tattoo — Haka tattoo woman
  • BellePoses — Hula Baby 6 (mirror) pose (marketplace link) exclusive for the The Avenue

And yes, I know that the haka is Maori in origin, but the tattoo has many common themes across Polynesia… besides, I  like it.

Also, that lovely traditional canoe behind me?  It’s a wa’a kaukahi, a single-hulled canoe with an outrigger.  This lovely one came from Tiki Tattoo, purveyor of lovely island decor.  This is a really lovely piece, and was a gift to me from a dear friend.

This is such a lovely hula outfit.  Nickki at Island Style Designs has really outdone herself!  You’ll definitely see me in this at summer dance events.

A’a i ka hula, waiho i ka maka’u i ka hale!  Dare to dance, leave your shame at home!

Aloha kākou, my friends!  A hui hou!

Mood

As I mentioned, Blueberry gave away L$500 store credit at SLB15!  This is the other outfit I purchased with mine.  I must have been in the mood for things in cream that day 🙂

I’m a bit of a sucker for one piece swimsuits, I think they can be even more sexy than bikinis.  Sometimes it’s not so much what you reveal, but more about what you conceal.

This laced swimsuit comes in sizes for Lara, Physique, Hourglass, Isis, Venus, Freya.  It has a 25 color HUD for for the straps and laces.  Each base color is L$199, and there a lots of colors to choose from.

As usual with Blueberry items, the fit and detailing is superb.  Look at the inbuilt wrinkles in the fabric and such.  If you zoom in close enough, you will even notice stitching on all the seams.  Fantastic realism in clothing, yay!

Ribbons!

While watching SLF&O group chat the other day, I saw this dress announced on an MM board that only required 14 slaps!  I ran to have a look and was really surprised to see such a lovely little dress on a board only requiring so few entrants!

Needless to say, we managed to lock the board down easily.  The dress is for Lara only though, so if it’s still available on the MM board or for sale in store, keep that in mind.

The dress also comes with a HUD with eight colors for the ribbons.  I’m showing it here in white to match my fur 🙂  I thought this would look really nice on my DSD bunny, but as the bunny is only for system bods, this wasn’t going to work.  If you’ve heard about Bakes on Mesh, this will fix that problem shortly!  Strawberry Singh has a great video about Bakes on Mesh here.

Date night

During SLB15, Blueberry were giving away L$500 store credit towards anything in their store!  I heard a rumor that the credit would expire after five days, so I wasted no time in selecting a couple of outfits.

This stunningly detailed bra, pantie, and dress set comes in sizes for Lara, Freya, Isis, Venus, Physique, and Hourglass.  Each color is L$250, and there is a large range of colors to chose from.

Each piece is separate and so can be worn individually or all three together.  The detailing on the bra and panties is exquisite.  This is not just an alpha-ed texture, but actual mesh.  The fit is extraordinary on Lara with no hint of clipping.

I particularly love mesh details like ties and bows, especially on lingerie, as it gives a true sense of realism that makes an outfit.  Plus, having tried to make some myself, I appreciate how difficult they are to create!  Another fabulous job from Blueberry!

This is certainly an outfit that will turn heads on the nightclub dancefloor, and when you get home with your sweetie 🙂

on the cool breezy dunes…

Aloha kākou!  I’m so sorry I’ve been away and sporadic, hopefully things will get back to normal here over the next week!   Like many of you, I enjoyed the big extravaganza of SL15, and picked up my store credit to Blueberry.  I found something just perfect — the DWL Classic jeans!

The fatpack for these jeans is totally worth it.  There’s a thirteen colour HUD plus exclusive patterns (I love the boho pattern shown — it matches my foil tattoos from Alaska Metro!), and three different jeans cuts – skinny, classic, and boot cut.

The belt from Bellydance Goddess is resizable, and just the perfect addition to this lovely little outfit.

I probably don’t need to tell you, Blueberry is just so hard to beat for quality mesh!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

I hope this giftie is still available!  This full over one piece swimsuit is a group gift for members of TeleportHub.  TeleportHub is L$10 to join, and once you do, there are gifts all over the grid, just waiting for you.

The swimsuit comes in classic standard sizes, plus body specific fitmesh for Lara, Freya, Isis, Venus, Ebody, Ocacin, Hourglass, Physique, Fine, Curvy, and TMP.

The polkadot pattern is cute, and I really love the ties at the hips.

As I mentioned a while back now, Hunt for you Inner Slut is currently on, and this is another item from the hunt.

This set of bra, pants, and dress are all separates. They come in fitmesh sizes for Lara, Freya, Isis, Venus, Hourglass, Physique, and Werewolf (which I’m presuming in the Bento Werewolf from JOMO).  The bra and pants straps could be just a little tighter, but the rigging is pretty nice 🙂

The dress is super short, especially at the back.

Hello sweets, today while I’m sorting out packages from all the events that have been on lately, I thought I’d show you this group gift from Resun Fashion.  It’s from back in November last year, but it’s still available in-store at the time of this post.  The Resun group is FREE to join!

There are two colors, black and this camel, in fitmesh sizes for classic, Lara, Freya, Isis, Venus, Physique, Hourglass, Ebody, Curvy, Fine, TMP.

The top is quite sheer in both the black and the camel colors, so it’s pretty daring!

As you can’t wear any alpha with it, at least for the top, there are some minor clipping issues while dancing, but nothing that will have you running away in embarrassment 😉

More SLB15 goodies

blue LotD

A few more SLB15 goodies to show you today, lovelies!

These fringed shorts come in sizes for Lara, Freya, Isis, Hourglass, and Physique.  They come with a HUD to change the lace and eyelet colors, with a host of combinations possible.

My hairstyle is by Mina Hair, and there are rigged and unrigged versions.  It too comes with a HUD with 13 essential colors, and a materials on/off selection.  Additionally, there are two styles you can select via the HUD, the major difference being the little escaped wisp of hair in the side of your face can be shown or hidden.  And hooray!  A really nice red.

Lastly, the necklace is available in both long and short versions, and also has a HUD to allow you to change the metals and the center of the flower.  The little note says “Bloom where you are planted” 🙂

The hair, short, and necklace are FREE gifts at SLB15.
