Look of the day

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!

 

Rebel

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.

Life’s a beach

This cute little trikini is a group gift from Scandalize.  Scandalize is L$100 to join, but this swimsuit alone has to be worth that price!

The size is Maitreya Lara fitmesh only!  So make sure you have Lara before running off to the store and paying your join-up fee!

A simple sea-themed necklace and bracelet compliment this nicely.

 

Rainbow Rave

blue LotD

How about some rainbow colors and a bikini?!  All set for a rave!  I hope they have glow-y necklaces at the event!

The rainbow leopard print is in system and appliers.  And the bikini comes in standard sizes plus fitmesh for Freya, Isis, Physique and has a two color HUD, this pattern plus a plain lime green.

My tail is from Psychotic Neko, and I’m still convinced it’s the most versatile tail in all of SL!  It has a staggering range of textures, colors, and glow options, and different parts of the tail can be set to any combination you like.

  • Tattoo: Rainbow Leopard by Catseye
  • Body: Lara by Maitreya
  • Hands and feet: Slink
  • Lipstick: Marcia Blues by F&TJ (no longer available)
  • Bikini: Festival Bikini II / Peacock by Mon Cheri

  • Tail: Extreme Neko Tail – Corset by Psychotic Neko

Scandale

blue LotD

Hello lovelies, today I have a little mini and jacket to show off!

This is a complete outfit, and includes the lace jacket, the dress, the heels, and the leg straps.  It also includes the necklace and a lip/ear chain which I’ve chosen not to wear as it’s no modify, and doesn’t fit my face.

The jacket is fitmesh and comes in one-size-fits-all.  The dress comes in fitmesh sizes for eBody, Lara, Hourglass, and Physique, and two fitmesh sizes for classic avatars, large and small.

As I couldn’t wear the piecing in the pack, I added some from my jewelry box 🙂

Relay for Life magic

Aeon LotD

A spring evening, a glimmer in the moonlight, a glimpse of something magical…. Carrie’s Lingerie offers Dreamy in lime, complete with lingerie, wings, and makeup as an exclusive supporting Relay for Life!

Some matching makeup?  Dreamy includes eyeshadow and lippy, and it works so well with the ensemble.

I’ve added the Forest Edge mask from Spyralle and a beautiful pendant from EarthStones here.

Carrie’s mainstay has been in standard layer and applier items, and Carrie does it to good effect.  skin-tight clothing, things that should look painted on work so very well!  Add in some flexi gauzy panels and we’ve got something beautiful going on. Now… if you want something a little racier,  Carrie’s Lingerie includes two options in Dreamy: the opaque butterfly top and panty shown above… or a very lacy one shown below.

Best of all, Dreamy is one of three outfits offered by Carrie’s Lingerie for Relay for Life.  Proceeds go to the fund, so please stop by and help out the cause, and get yourself a little treat in the bargain.

And those stars?  Those are my falling stars from Blue’s Fantasy!  They’re in the inworld store, so check them out!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

Sarah

Welcome our lovely friend Sarah to her first photo shoot!

Sarah is showing off a wonderful collection of items from various creators.  When I first saw this outfit, I sort of pictured her with a plasma rifle in her hand 🙂  I dropped that idea, but I still chose a neo-noir setting à la Blade Runner in which to photograph her.

Sarah is wearing a hairstyle from eXxEsS that is very similar to one I have from the same creator.  Except what the photos don’t show is that hers moves with the wind!  A very cool effect and something that only now other creators are slowly catching up with.

Also worth pointing out are the crystal platforms Sarah is wearing.  I thought I was going to have to cut them out as I didn’t think they would be visible enough, but this last picture shows them off nicely.

And I must say, the detail on the corset and socks from The Mystic is just fantastic.  As I’m sure you can probably guess, all this is Lara specific fitmesh.

I hope Sarah is pleased with how her pictures turned out and will be keen to show us some more outfits sooner rather than later!

This gorgeous little corset style dress was the prize on Just 4 Fun’s MM board the other day.

It comes in standard mesh sizes plus fitmesh for Lara, Physique, and Hourglass.  You definitely won’t want to wear an alpha with this, which is a good thing as the pack doesn’t include one 🙂

What is included in the pack though are the pearl bracelets (no resize script unfortunately) and the heels for Slink Highs.  A very nice MM prize!

As you can see the dress is materials enabled.  You can hopefully get some idea of the varying light play on it from these photos.  Under standard lighting (not projector lights as I’m using here) it looks much more black than silver.

Dark skies and darker looks

One of my favourite DJs in Eden has started hosting a new montly (or so) Goth event, “Cravin’ the Raven”, and I put together a great new outfit for the occasion.  I assembled this from some wonderful creators to create a look that really suits a dangerous mood.

Have fun experimenting out there…. just… take a friend or two along with you.  This place looks a bit on the creepy side….

Snake skin

blue LotD

Wow, one of the better applier + mesh panel dresses I’ve seen!  It’s deserving of a post 🙂

The dress is on system layers and has appliers for EVE, Lara, Omega, TMP, and Amanzing (not even sure what that is?)  And it comes with mesh panels in the five standard sizes.

The texture matching is really nice.  Usually with these you notice the mesh panel, but as you can see, it blends in nearly perfectly with the applier outfit (there is a tiny noticeable join between the shirt and the pants).  Great job!

And when I saw “black snakeskin”, I knew I had some heels to match!
