Lady of the Highlands

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

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!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!


No tears shed here!

Solas and Bee at Silvan Moon Designs have a lovely gown in your choice of two colours at We Love Role Play.   Tears of Queen Liliana shows the kind of class that you’ve come to expect from SMD!

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!

Irridescence

Aloha kakou!  The Fall Equinox has come and gone, and in the northern hemisphere, days are speeding shorter, there’s a cool breeze in the air.  October is coming, and Carrie’s Lingerie is ready for it!  Carrie has put together six lovely complete costumes for the VIP group — with clothing, accessories and skins — guaranteed to make an impact on whatever fancy dress party you might choose to attend!

I get to show you one of these, but if you follow Carrie’s on flickr, you can find pictures of others.  This is the lovely Irridessa!
irridessa_c004

Irridessa includes omega appliers for skin, makeup, bra and panty, mesh wings, anklets and pointy elf-ears, and flexi-prim silks.  It’s nearly all-in-one!

irridessa_c009

Normally I’d avoid green hair, but the light mint really complements the skin and ‘kini colours.  A good lavender or golden blonde works as well.  Blue liked the blonde, but I feel much more at home in lavender skin than I do in blonde hair.  🙂

irridessa_c022

These costumes truly are a treat.  Stop by Carrie’s Lingerie, become a VIP member, and enjoy.  They’re incredible, and you’ll be ready for fancy dress… or maybe a little bit of everyday.

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

 


A Goddess for a reason

Did you see what I did there?

Athena, goddess of intelligence, creativity, and reason — and, in a swirl of silks, the latest offering in Carrie’s Lingerie VIP group.

athene_c004

You may choose to shed the gown for the corset.. for a more.. intimate… setting.

athene_c007

There’s so much here to talk about: matching pumps, jewelry, and a beautiful makeup kit.  The standard layer makeup is a full-set tattoo, but the omega appliers are independently selectable for eye and lippy.  I wish that the decoration to the outside of the eye was also independently selectable, but it’s a great effect overall.

As a friend of mine said, the collar/choker alone is worth the price of admission!
athene_c010

The third configuration is a ‘decoration-only’ mode – no gown, no corset, just decorations… and panties or no, as you choose.  It’s a lovely with the silks!

athene_c008If you’re not a member of Carrie’s VIP group, it’s a pretty nice deal.  It’s a little spendy to join — about the price of one of Carrie’s lovely outfits — but there are lovely gifts, and first crack at new products.

Mahalo! A hui hou!


Autumn Browns

It’s September, and some of us are experiencing the cooler weather… time for a little heavier of a dress, I think!  The peppers are ready to pick (and this little duck will be making some fiery salsa), but in the meantime, I’d best chase the ducks away from the garden!

Blue Moon Enterprises offers Coreen in rust, a beautiful one-piece mesh dress and blouse for their September group gift.  It’s in five standard sizes, and is perfect for a cool autumn day!
bme_coreen_c001

Solas does the most amazing detail work on her mesh.  Look at the folds in the neckline and on the sleeve, and the detail work along the top of the dress, and the stitching down the back.  If only I had her skill!

bme_coreen_c006

Now, on to more pressing matters — for a share of the salsa, who will help me dice my peppers?

Aloha!  A hui hou!


Help Support Medecines Sans Frontieres!

SL is no stranger to charities, and Spoonful of Sugar is perhaps one of my favourite so far.  Five sims of shops and activities and events, and the proceeds go to Medecines Sans Frontieres / Doctors Without Borders, helping the sick and injured in some of the most needy parts of the world.

Spyralle‘s contribution is the lovely Kirana mesh gown.  It’s sized in the standard five standard sizes, but works well with my Slink Physique.

kirana_c009

Luminesse‘s Sea Turtle happened to complement Kirana perfectly, in each colour!

kirana_c005

Kirana comes in six lovely colour/textures.  I’ve got three of them here to show you, for the others you’ll have to stop by Spyralle’s booth at Spoonful.   There’s a demo you can try, always a good idea!

There’s more, though — there’s a one of a kind special Royal Batik Summer Gypsy in Torch Light.  This colour pattern will only be available for ONE copy of this outfit, and it’s up for bidding here.  Sadly, I couldn’t convince Kerryth to get me a copy to demonstrate for you  😀  but you must stop by and put in a bid!

Good luck!  Aloha!  A hui hou!

 


No place like home

Enchantment is honouring L. Frank Baum’s greatest creation, the Wonderful World of Oz — and Silvan Moon Designs has an amazing exclusive just for this event, Evanora of the East.

Evanora_c007

Evanora_c030

The Evanora gown is all mesh with Slink, Maitreya, and Belleza fitmesh sizes, as well as the standard mesh sizes.  Gloves and wispy flexi bits are included, as is a mesh collar.

Evanora_c004

I’ll admit, I took too many pictures, but you can tell the outfits that I am in love with — they are just too much fun to take pictures of.  I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoy taking them!

I’ll leave on on this thought, one of my favourite quotes from L Frank Baum, with Dorothy and Polychrome, the Rainbow’s Daughter:

“You have some queer friends, Dorothy,” she said.
“The queerness doesn’t matter, so long as they’re friends”.

Aloha, my friends!


The Roaring Twenties by the Light of the Moon

There are some eras that always seem a little more glamorous, a little more sparkly.  One of my favourites is the Roaring Twenties, that amazing decade between the end of The Great War and the beginning of The Great Depression — filled with jazz, booze, and gangsters.  Women found their voice with the right of franchise in the US in 1920, and celebrated their freedoms and their choices in music and in dance.

As an exclusive for the Lovecraft Festival (Lovefest), Silvan Moon Designs brings us an homage to the Roaring Twenties in Ain’t Misbehavin’, a beaded all-mesh dress in four perfect shades.
AintMisbehavin_c015

Dressed by Lexi rounded out this outfit with Maui Pearls, perfect flapper-era shoes, and the Tantalize jewelry set (earrings and armlets).   I really love mixing and matching from different outfits to get the right look.  Ain’t Misbehavin’ includes that treat headband, shaded for each of the dresses!

AintMisbehavin_c014Ain’t Misbehavin’ comes in four shades, three of them shown here for your perusal.

There’s one more shade, a beautiful rose, but you’ll have to stop by the Lovecraft Festival and check that one out yourself.

AND — before I forget, the creators of Silvan Moon Designs — Solas (of Blue Moon Enterprises) and Bee (of The White Armory) — have additional news!  Solas has moved Blue Moon’s inworld mainstore to The White Armory sim.  You can find satisfy all of your era-specific clothing at the same sim!  Stop on by and visit!
