Lady of the Highlands

Aeon LotD, Reviews, Sponsored

Oh my, I am terribly embarrassed.  I had taken photos for a post on a lovely tartan gown from Silvan Moon Designs, and somehow in some research-related travels had not gotten the post written — and then had forgotten about the photos.  So let me share Lady Broch Tauroch with you now!  Lady Broch Tauroch is available in three beautiful colours, and only at We Love Roleplay!   Below is Moors, a lovely dark green.ladybrochtuarach_c011

The Highlands pattern features a dark dusty blue tartan.

The fine detail on this gown is amazing.  I’m so very impressed with the pattern on that knit scarf, as well as the lovely pin included.

It’s a beautiful sunset… and the heather palette features the lavender shades of those pretty blossoms

Stop by We Love Roleplay! and take a look  This is a gorgeous gown, and while it’s stunning for roleplay, it’s also just perfect for the cooler weather as we in the northern hemisphere move into winter.

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

 

 

Evangelise

Aeon LotD, Reviews, Sponsored

Well, no, not evangelise…  but Evangeline  is Silvan Moon Design‘s exclusive offering for the Fantasy Gacha Carnival!

I complemented Evangeline with a nice little black necklace and earrings from Carrie’s Lingerie, included with the Megan corset.  Gold might also work, but I wanted something subdued that wouldn’t detract from the beautiful brocade on the collar and gown.

You know, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again.  Solas’ mesh skill combined with Bee’s texture artistry…. what an amazing duo!  Please go out and support these two, they make an amazing team!

A dream of djinni

Aeon Fashion, LotD, Reviews

Okay, I love Susanne Vega, so this must makes me grin a LOT.

I’ve been very excited to share this outfit with you!  A wonderful friend gave me a beautiful birthday gift: Genie, a beautiful mesh outfit from Caverna Obscura, and I’ve been anxious to show you all!

genie_c015

Genie is glorious.  It’s available in Maitreya and Slink fitmesh, and available in three different colours: the purple shown here, black, and gold.  All three are beautifully tempting, and while I deliberated,  I had to choose purple.  🙂

Each colour comes in two versions: the transparent one, and an opaque if you wish to be a little more discrete.

Genie is a perfect opportunity for to show off Nefertiti, the beautiful kohl from [GA.EG].

genie_c028

Caverna Obscura has always had beautiful outfits, and I’m so happy to see their outfits now in mesh-body-friendly fitmesh.  Please stop by and take a look!  Please note that Caverna offers a demo for Genie, but all of the outfit components are locked together.  In the full version, each of the components may be worn independently!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

One last spell to cast….

One more witch for this season?

Petite Mort brings us a wonderful little in-store hunt for my final witch of the season: each item in the hunt is part of the Gypsy Witch – hat, skirt, lace shawl, peasant top, and pentacle choker.  Three’s still a little time before All Hallow’s Eve!

pmhuntwitch_c006

The Gypsy Witch features Petite Mort‘s flour sack peasant top, lace shawl, and gypsy skirt.  Each comes in the standard five sizes, plus Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink fitmesh!

pmhuntwitch_c003

Setting the hat aside for a moment, Gypsy Witch makes for a wonderful slightly gothy outfit.  OMG I love Petite Mort‘s fitmesh!

  • Sexy Stand 3 pose

A little bit of a closeup on the choker.  The witch’s hat can oversize a bit without looking out-of-sorts, but a little creative editing of a hairdo can always help, too.  🙂   I don’t usually wear heavy eyeshadow or dark lippy, but it definitely works with this outfit, I think!

  • ProPose —  Group Gift September F1 pose

The worst part, to me, of the end of the Hallowe’en season?  Everyone always expects the costumes to be put away for another year.

Me, I’ll always wear my inner witch… so don’t be surprised if you see me in my pointy hat out-and-about in SL.

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

A Darker Witch

Aeon Fashion, LotD, Reviews

Perhaps I just have a bit of an affinity for witches.   🙂

Today’s is a lovely special from your favourite steampunk supplier, Pixel Box.  Halloween Stuff Witch comes in four dark shades, and you know that I had to take a look at the green one!

pmwitch_c004

  • Pixel Box — Halloween Stuff – Witch Green (top, skirt, boots, hat, broom)
  • REIGN — Tattoo Choker Necklace (“Deathly” and “Spellbound”)
  • //elephante poses// — Rose #2

pmwitch_c008

REIGN offers this beautiful little mesh choker in three varieties.   While the name is “Tattoo”, it’s not a tattoo, it is a lovely little bit of mesh!   I’ve shown both below — “Spellbound” with a pentacle charm, “Deathly” featuring the Deathly Hallows.  I can’t decide which I like best, but each comes in black, gold, and silver.  And best yet, all three metals for each of the two charms is included for one lovely little price!

And whatever you do, don’t blink.

pmwitch_c015

Unsurprisingly, Pixel Box also offers an accessory kit that will give this gothy beauty a steampunk bent.  It’s definitely worth checking out!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

Amelie

blue Fashion, LotD, Reviews

This is the second outfit I picked up from Ana Markova thanks to my wonderful Aeon 🙂

amelie_001

This one is in standard mesh sizes and has specific fitmesh sizes for Maitreya and Slink Physique.  Yay!

amelie_002

I want to highlight the creator of my skin again too.  Lumiya Rae, owner of Lumae, makes fantastic skins at reasonable prices!  This is the freckled option of my normal Adore Peach Bare skin, the one I wear every day.  When I’m not being all formal and hiding freckles under makeup, I wear a freckle tattoo on my face to add some interest.  I’m not really the pale freckly one (that’s Aeon) so I generally wear a non-freckled skin.  But I was playing with this option of the skin for the face freckles the other day, and I thought I would show you a close-up so you can see just how good Lumae skins are.  I highly recommend them!

lilianablue_c003

Season of the Witch

Aeon LotD, Reviews

Okay, fair warning?  I have a couple of witches to show you over the next few days.  To start, let’s have some Donovan, because MUSIC!

So Witch Hazel is a amazing fun little costume from Blue Moon Enterprises.  Solas made this for the Fantasy Cream event last year (2015) , but she’s got it back in the shop right now!  WAIT!  Is that a cauldron under my skirts?
 witchhazel_c002

  • Blue Moon Enterprises – Witch Hazel, gown, hat, and pendant, designed for 2015 Fantasy Cream, currently available in the shop!

Yes, that’s right – the skirt is open at the front to reveal a little Hallowe’en inspired scene featuring a bubbling cauldron and grinning Jack-o-lantern!  Is it silly? OMG yes!  Is it fun?  YES!

witchhazel_c003This one is perfect for that happy All Hallows’ Eve party!  It has every bit of the excellent mesh you’ve come to expect from Blue Moon, with a wonderful sense of humour!

A little Pepper for spice

Aeon Fashion, LotD, Reviews

I’ve been wanting to share this lovely dress from !Soul with you for a while, and a new makeup applier from [GA.EG] has given me the perfect opportunity!

pepper_c003

  • !Soul — Pepper minidress
  • .wound — Ribbon choker (vibrant)
  • [GA.EG] — Nefertiti eye shadow
  • [L.Warwick] — Savannah Ankle Strapped Heels – Noir Leather
  • ProPose —  Group Gift September F1

pepper_c002

Pepper is all mesh, with Slink and Maitreya fitmesh, and has a hud with a staggering number of colour choices:  Main colours and piping are independently selectable from a palette of  60 colours!  Oh, wait- and there are two different palettes of 60 choices to choose from!

The other lovely item I want to share is this amazing eyeshadow.  I’ll confess to having always loved the Egyptian kohl look, and [GA.EG] has really made it hum!  Now, a word of note: the [GA.EG] makeups are an add-on to the [GA.EG] head Smart HUDs, so this isn’t an Omega applier for everyone.  But WOW, it’s a beauty, with a host of accent colours plus a variety of other customising possibilities.  Nefertiti installs into the [GA.EG] Smart HUD, so there’s no extra HUD to use, your whole makeup kit is there at your fingertips!
 pepper_c006

A few more variations — with a green-and-silver dress and some different colours on the eyeshadow!

There’s an additional version with lovely cross-strapping across the back.  I may well have to run back and pick it up.  !Soul has previously released a number of cute minis as group gifts, but this one has them beat.  Now, if only we might get this with the rainbow texture, I’d be in complete heaven!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

The Ninth Annual Fallen Gods festival has started!  Concerts, battles, shows, and shopping!  Silvan Moon Designs offers Well of Souls, an exclusive gown just for this event!

wellofsouls_c002

Like all of Silvan Moon Designs‘ pieces, Well of Souls comes in five fitmesh sizes plus fitmesh for Maitreya and Slink mesh bodies, and includes fitted gloves.  Several flexi add-ons give a lovely dynamicism to this gown!

wellofsouls_c010I’ve added a gothic choker and tiara.  And I’m crushingly embarrassed to tell you that I cannot figure out where I got it: it was a hunt gift from at least six months ago, and the items don’t have information on their origin other than their creator — ℬεĮĮ VɑĮεrϊε WℴĮƒε. wellofsouls_c009

Whether you’re looking for a gown for Samhain, All Hallow’s Eve, or a gown for roleplay — Well of Souls is a beautiful work of art!  Stop by Fallen Gods today, and visit Silvan Moon Designs!
