I’ve got some wonderful specials from We <3 Role-Play for you today!  Lady Rhapsody is a beautiful new gown from Silvan Moon Designs, and two beautiful hairstyles from Calico Creations.  So many pretties!

Lady Rhapsody comes in five wonderful pastel colours, a regal look in Maitreya Lara and SLink Physique fitmesh only.  Each gown includes the corset dress and a lovely overskirt, as well as a matching rose embellishment at the hip.    

Kendle is a lovely rigged mesh with optional flexy add-ons.  Kindi is a beautiful updo in both rigged and unrigged mesh.  Both are available in all of Calico Creations‘s lovely palette of colours.  Each pack includes a HUD with a wide selections of shades in a given palette (I chose reds and gingers, for some reason).  Incidentally, if you weren’t aware, Calico Creations has re-released some of their older hairstyles with a more complete colour palette, which includes the much older shades that I really loved!  I don’t know how long that’s been so, I just discovered it!  YAY!

Kendle and Kindi are both available at We <3 Role Play for 25% off, so don’t delay!

We <3 Role-Play is an incredible event: there are wonderful treasures around every corner.  Silvan Moon Designs and Calico Creations and many other merchants have created some wonderful exclusives for the event, so go and enjoy yourself!  It’s not to be missed.

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

A marvelous design on this corset and skirt combination from The Little Bat will certainly turn some heads!

The corset is in standard sizes, plus fitmesh sizes for classic, Belleza, Maitreya, and Physique, while the skirt is just in standard rigged mesh sizes.  Included is an eight color HUD to change the color of the bodice and the ribbon at the bottom of the panel.

Fluttering by the lines

I’m SOOOO ready for summer with a little mix-and-match for your midweek! The organic lines of Hilly Haalan‘s Butterfly Top balance the geometry of Alaska Metro‘s new Juana miniskirt!

It’s a nice chance to augment with a new necklace and earrings from EarthStones.  Flight of Fancy is a bead-and-butterfly themed jewelry set, components available independently, with two different choices of necklace length.  Each has a texture-change HUD included, allowing you to alter bead, butterfly, and metal colours.

Alaska Metro‘s Juana is available in six different palettes, in five standard rigged mesh sizes plus fitmesh for Belleza Freya, Isis, and Venus, SLink Physique and Hourglass, and Maitreya Lara.  Hilly Haalan‘s Butterfly Top comes in the standard five rigged mesh plus fitmesh for SLink Physique and Maitreya Lara.  The Butterfly Top comes in two varieties, “casual” and “glam”, each with a 20-texture HUD!

Happy Hump Day!  Mahalo!  A hui hou!

Blossoming spring

As flowers bloom in the spring, wonders bloom at Silvan Moon Designs!  Bee and Solas have a beautiful little mesh dress for you in three springy colours exclusively at Shiny Shabby.  Peaches and Cream comes in sizes for Maitreya Lara and SLink Physique, and as always, there are demos to try first!  The large flower detail is a separate unrigged mesh piece, so you can adjust it (or omit it) as you like.

You’ve seen my favourite daisies wreath from Caverna Obscura many times before, but I get to show you a lovely new necklace and earrings from EarthStones.  Feuilles features a HUD that allows you a lovely choice of metals and gemstones.

Spring is just bursting with treasures to find after the cold winter months.  Stop by Shiny Shabby and take a look, you’re sure to find all kinds of wonderful treasures.  Here’s hoping your spring is as full of colour and light!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

This is a really nice fitting dress from the MM board at TRS Designs.  It’s available for all of April!

It comes in standard sizes, plus fitmesh sizes for classic, Belleza, Maitreya, Physique, and Hourglass.  The belt is part of the texture, but is very nicely done!

Sensuous lace

Aeon LotD, Reviews, Sponsored

Light as a sunbeam, soft as a feather, a caress of lace and angel’s wings… Carrie’s Lingerie brings you Sensuous Silks, a beautiful little set of applier lingerie and silks that’s simply angelic.

I added my new favourite feathered wings from Bare Rose.  B-Wings are bento-enabled, and have the most amazing bird-wing like fluttering!  They’re full mesh, so they have proper three-dimensional structure: they’re not flat flexi-prims.  They’re GORGEOUS, and they come with a small flapping AO hud.

Oh, and one other lovely — I just discovered that my favourite hair stylist, Calico, re-released many of their recent (past year or so) hair styles with an improved colour HUD that features their older shades!  I get my light ginger again!  Yay!

Sensuous Silks is available in six lovely pastel shades, and comes with an additional modesty version.  No, I didn’t show that, what, me modest?

Mahalo my friends!  A hui hou!

While I was running around checking MM boards yesterday, my letter came up on a Lucky Letter board twice in a row!  This pretty little applier and prim dress was the first of them 🙂

The top and pants are on system underwear layers, and there is an Omega applier too.  The prim skirt doesn’t have a resizer, but it’s modify, so if you need to, you can adjust the size to fit you.

This color happens to be one of my favourites as it suits my hair so well.  Pinks and reds?  Noooo.  Blues, purples, and greens?  Yes please!

Indira’s light

Aeon Fashion, LotD, Reviews, Sponsored

Bee and Solas at Silvan Moon Designs bring us a new wave of fashion that I’ll show over the next couple of weeks.  Today is Indira’s Light, an elegant little mesh gown in four colours.

Indira’s Light comes in SLink Physique and Maitreya Lara fitmesh, and consists of two fitmesh pieces, a dress and coat piece (both shown).  There are flexi bits for a little swirl as you walk and dance, and two decorative mesh pieces at the belly and for the neck.  They’re extraordinarily elegant, although the neck piece looks like it might be a little pokey.  🙂

Stop by Silvan Moon Designs and take a look!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

SL is liberating in some ways.  I have no tattoos in RL and I doubt if I would ever get one.  I do have a really good friend who got a large one (think playing card size) on her inner wrist when I would have thought all thoughts of tattoos were left behind in her teens or early twenties, but it did have very special meaning to her.

Having said that, I’ve collected a couple of tattoos in SL and I occasionally wear them to the beach or a special event (such as, you guessed it, a “Best in Tattoos” competition).  I even have made some that are available in our store.

I realized I hadn’t taken any pictures of them for the blog (other than the angel wings and the hip tattoo), and as a dutiful reporter of all things you can wear in SL, here are some photos of one I recently picked up from a midnight mania board 🙂

This tattoo is on upper system tattoo layers and comes with appliers for Omega and TMP in dark, medium (which I’m wearing), and light.  The artwork is very good, and the shading, particularly on the hands and under the arms, is superb.  If the creator is not a real life tattoo artist, I’ll be surprised.

The above photo has a tiny retouch to hide the join between my hand and arm, but normally, you can’t see it in world.

And again, the shading on the back is excellent.
