Kazumi

Aeon Events, Fashion, LotD, Reviews, Sponsored

I just got to take a look at some lovelies from the recent Rock Your Rack event (sadly now over), and I wanted to share some pretties that I picked up.  Spyralle offered the lovely Kazumi jacket and pants outfit in four lovely shades.  

I picked up these boots as a group gift at .:Ecce Bellus:..   They’re lovely, and also sold in a light taupe shade for a VERY reasonable price!  I couldn’t resist picking up both.

I’m hoping Kerryth will get Kazumi into the stores soon. In the meantime, stop by and take a look, Spyralle is involved in all kinds of events and hunts right now — don’t miss out!

Mahalo!   A hui hou!

My namesake

Aeon Fashion, LotD, Reviews

Two lovely friends found the perfect dress for me — Mahina by [AdN] Designs.  It’s a light and fluttery beach dress, a perfect little flirty fashion as you hit the waves.

Mahina features a lovely little colour-texture HUD, but I think I’m in love with the rainbow!

Mahalo nui loa to Frani and Keko for my lovely gift.  You two are so sweet and I’m so happy that you’re part of my life!  And thank you, dear readers, for stopping by to share!

Mahalo!   A hui hou!

All in time

Aeon Events, Fashion, LotD, Reviews

The Fallen Gods Decennial is on, and WOW are there a lot of exciting things happening!   There’s a huge hunt as well as lots of side events.  One of the little fun things is a little matchmaker fortune-teller booth at Fallen Gods, and you can win the Chronos Coal Black full avatar.  On top of that, the hunt item from Fallen Gods is an alternate skin for Chronos, in water gold.  So I, of course, had to play mix and match with them!   Chronos features a variegated skin, monokini, headpiece, hair, staff, and backpiece, as well as a little swirl of butterflies.  It’s all here!  

The full avatar gift from the matchmaker at Fallen Gods includes the Coal Gold skin, but I swapped out the hair for Empty Gold from Magika.  It’s a little more my colour, and still works with the skin!  The backpiece and staff might be a little much for dancing, but are fantastic for making your shining presence known!

Chronos also comes with some bluer-than-blue omega eye appliers,  which are pretty decent, but I happened to pick up a lovely pair of Schadenfreude Moon in my eyes from the recent The Coven hunt, which seemed just perfect for this outfit! 

The Fallen Gods Decennial goes on for the whole month of October, but stop by soon!  Enjoy the hunt and all the associated events, there’s too much fun out there to be had!

Spirit of Hope

Aeon Events, Fashion, LotD, Reviews, Sponsored

One of the things I’m most happy about in Second Life is that we’re not just a game, we’re not just playing about, we do try to make a difference.  Creations for Parkinson’s has organised a major Hallowe’en event to support the Michael J. Fox Foundation’s Team Fox in support of research of Parkinson’s Disease.  100 per cent of all proceeds from the Gotham Island Event will be donated to Team Fox!

Solas and Bee at Silvan Moon Designs are taking part with two wonderful creations.  Spirit of Hope is an all fitmesh gown and overskirt for SLink Physique and Maitreya Lara.  It is beautiful and simple and elegant.

Spirit‘s overskirt features beautiful pale lavender floral accents that complement the lavender skirting on the gown.  Bee has really outdone herself with the texturing here!

Please visit Gotham Island Event and financially support the fight to end Parkinson’s Disease.  Researchers are making progress, but they need the funding to carry out the work!  We can end this debilitating syndrome!

Fallen goddess

Aeon Events, Fashion, LotD, Reviews

The mist hangs close to your skin, a cool shiver runs down your spine that had nothing to do with the cold.  You look around furtively, and there — framed in the glow of the streetlight, regal and shining in silver and black… one who walks as if she owns these streets…

Okay, I confess — I am NOT a fan of hats in SL.  Even when they’re pretty, they…. just don’t work very well.  But then sometimes the perfect outfit just pops into existence for you.  When I found Silvan Moon Designs‘ new exclusive dress for the Fallen Gods Decennial, I knew that Spyralle‘s Breakfast in Vegas would make quite the statement.

The monsters were out, all right… but she was the one to be wary of.

Fae of the Fall

Aeon Events, Fashion, LotD, Reviews

After showing the lovely Queen Frani to you previously, I thought I’d share my own outfit for the Sisters of Eden Autumn Queen Dance.  I’ve blogged the base outfit before, but added a bit to create an angel of autumn?  A fall fae?  Can fae have feathered wings?

So, sometimes you get lucky.  Bare Rose created some beautiful bento wings in their “B-Wings“, sold in black and white colours.  Fortunately, they are mod, so I could change the overlay colour.  Be VERY careful, the wings are NO COPY: do NOT try changing the texture, ONLY change the overcolour.  I played around a little bit until I found what looked just like gold to me.  The texture-enabled wings turned that gold into something shining with a hint of metallic glint.  Just… wow.

Persefona‘s Floating Leaves come in a number of different distributions.  They’re mesh, not particles, so they don’t contribute to the kinds of rendering issues and lag (and annoyance) that particle generators can.  They do attach to the body, so they move somewhat rigidly about you, but depending on your use they look absolutely wonderful.  They worked well for my dances at the party!

It’s always lovely when a creator puts together an amazing outfit… but I really love that feeling of putting together pieces from here and there to create your own individualised look.
