Completely Tenable

Aeon Fashion, LotD, Reviews

Okay, is it me, or is ‘tenable’ one of those words that you just never hear?  It’s like ‘whelmed’.  In any case, I’m all about Tena, a new top/pants combination from Fi’s Creations!

Tena_010

Tena is a two-piece all-mesh outfit in the standard five sizes.  And WOW, all the colours!

  • KoiKoi – Purple Bootie Pumps (no longer available?)

I really love when manufacturers include multiple texture choices in one, and Fi continues to exceed expectations on that front!  Tena comes in four varieties, each with six texture choices for both pants and top.

Each quadrant above is a separate outfit, with Unicolour, Gingham, Stripes, and Retro patterns shown clockwise from the top left.  The green outfit that I’m wearing above is from the unicolour palette, and the purple from the retro.

Stop on by Fi’s Creations, and take a look today!  A hui hou!

Starlight

A friend of mine posted a fantastic photo on Flickr the other day, and I immediately thought it would be a great location for a fashion photo (then again, I get excited about any good looking spot in SL, thinking “Oh what could I photograph there?”)

The location at a new sim called the Isle of Peace, turned out to be far smaller that Nat’s photo had suggested to me.  So I had to do a little judicious derendering.  And what’s up with sim owners making wonderfully photogenic places and then banning script usage?  Grr I had to fly to 100m and get into a pose and then land back in the place I wanted to take the photo!

After all my trials and tribulations (that I’m sure you didn’t want to hear about anyway lol) here are the results!

This mesh gown in standard sizing is from Arlene’s Fashions & Designs.  The texturing is materials enabled and glitters as you move.  It’s very eye-catching and you’ll certainly get comments wearing this!

Also including with the gown are white sandals for Slink High, but due to space constraints you aren’t going to see them in these pics 🙂

Pure Goddess

Aeon Fashion, LotD, Reviews

No, not me!  But Bellydance Goddess offers the lovely Pure as a group gift right now.  And it is divine!

BGPure_001

BGPure_004

Pure comes with both a thong and a hip wrap appliers.  The wrap is definitely its own form of sexy!

BGPure_009

Pure comes with Omega appliers for the top, thong and waist wrap, and mesh accoutrements (belt, headpiece, chestpiece, bangles). The mesh belt includes the silks and comes with a resize script, although it can be tricky to fit just right to your hips!  Pure also includes bracelets which are not resizable, unfortunately, and were way too big for this girl.  Fortunately, I had a lovely set of bangles that were perfectly appropriate from the lovely Aditi saree from RaMp, and those together with some anklets from Cazimi rounded out this lovely outfit!

Now, I really need to go practice my bellydance!  A hui hou kākou, my friends!


My ship keys are here somewhere…

The theme for the 13th annual Hunt for your Inner Slut is the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.  There are quite a few space related items to be found, including this bodysuit and tutu from Xxxtasi.  The photos really don’t do the tutu justice as they don’t show off the animated galactic texture that looks just wonderful!

And yes, I know I’m doing the woman in comic books things, but after all, just think of the name of the hunt 🙂

Autumn mist

blue Fashion, LotD, Reviews

I was rummaging in my closet yesterday and I came across this stunning little outfit I should have photographed back in autumn!  Oh well, it’s never to late, just don’t ask me to remember where I got it lol.

I was hunting around for a café setting for it, but while walking around London, I came across this art gallery with some very interesting art.  And as the carpet matched the colour scheme, well I stopped looking 🙂

My demon has returned!

blue Fashion, LotD, Reviews

This will take you out of your comfort zone!  Just to shock people awake here’s a themed outfit that I put together for a contest some time ago.  I scouted out the dance floor the day before the event, just after it had been decorated with tombstones and such, so I could get exact co-ordinates for the top of a tombstone when I was standing on it.

For my entrance at the party, I teleported to the top of the stone.  The stone was made out to our wonderful club manager Nandi and it was inscribed “she partied ’til she dropped”.  I appeared on top of her tombstone and started calling for her telling her it was time to go.  Mwhahahaha!

There is a ton of things going on with this outfit.  I’ll take you through step by step.

Obviously, the wings.  They are from Material Squirrel, my favourite wing maker in SL.  Nearly all Material Squirrel’s wings are L$99, and these were no exception.  Considering the HUD that comes with them that allows you to change their size, wingspan, flexiness, flapping rate, and a whole bunch of other things, these are a great buy.  I don’t think anyone else comes close to making wings this good.

The other major feature of this outfit are the cloven hooves.  These boots are non-slink but fit perfectly and do the job with alacrity!

Aeon was watching me do the shoot and said “Wouldn’t it be funny if I put on an innocent white dress and…”  I laughed and said, anything you desire, my love.  So, who is converting who in this picture I wonder?!

Finally, two closeups of the corset from Sugar.  I wear this quite a bit, but not usually as a demon!

A touch of the orient

Aeon Fashion, LotD, Places, Reviews

I love the serene beauty of the Orient, and Dressed by Lexi brings us a wonderful little special priced just right as a current promotion!  The satiny Narcissus comes in four colours and has just been updated with Omega appliers and repriced for a limited time!

Narcissus_020e

I have to show off this lovely sim.  Japan Momiji is a beautiful little slice of Japan, and the perfect venue to show off this little neg!  I had a thrill of a time wandering around exploring!

After wandering around in my favourite sandals, I made sure to take off my shoes before entering buildings.

Narcissus_015e

Narcissus includes standard layer negligeé and thong with Omega appliers available separately, with mesh pieces for ribbons/flowers at the hip, and skirt elements, as well as sticks for your hair.  They’re beautifully detailed!

Narcissus_008e

To be quite honest, I’m sure that Narcissus is not entirely appropriate for wearing in the public, and I hope I did not violate cultural mores.  But it was just me and the sea there this morning, so if you don’t tell, hopefully no one will mind.

Narcissus_019e

I’m so excited to see Lexi re-releasing standard layers as Omega appliers, and I can’t wait to see what she comes out with next!

I understand that in Japan, “sayonara” is actually not common, and that among friends it is more common to say “mata ne”.  So, mata ne!  Aloha!

This is another gift from the MGS&N Christmas stash.  The dress is in rigged mesh in the standard sizings with a fitmesh dress I’m wearing with Lara here.  There are appliers for the lace for Slink, Belleza, TMP, Omega, and Maitreya.  Another generous gift from a talented creator!
