Falling into Wonderland

It’s time for a little Enchantment, and Solas and Bee at Silvan Moon Designs bring you Iracebeth of Crims, a beautiful new fitmesh gown modeled after the Red Queen in celebration of Enchantment‘s theme — Through the Looking Glass.  Yes, yes, you can get it in red – but look at the other pretty colours first!

Mad mad props to Astralia, who created this wonderful Alice-inspired set of scenes on their sim!

The gown and jacket can be worn separately, but work so very well together that I have a hard time imagining wearing them independently.  As always, Solas’ fitmesh is perfect, and Bee’s texturing is just exquisite.

It’s your move.

Mahalo!  A hui hou!


Fantasy Faire 2018 — Spyralle’s Ageless Clock

One last treasure for the 2018 Fantasy Faire before it ends this weekend: the Ageless Clock from Spyralle.

As Kerryth writes:

This intriguing machine keeps time according to a system no longer known. An intricate gear mechanism turns, and at intervals a hidden bell sounds and an image takes form on the front of the object and then fades away. After a cycle of four bells and four different images, the cycle starts over again. Meanwhile, a light pulses. Is it a signal? Is it a message? No one knows.

The Ageless Clock is defaults to a large size and 7LI, but it’s resizable.  It shrinks down to a 4LI tabletop version seen below, perfectly at home on a mantlepiece or lost amidst the clutter of your laboratory.

Fantasy Faire is slipping into its final few days: the faire closes on Sunday, April 29.  If you haven’t been, you really owe it to yourself to visit — I don’t know how the creators build such a marvelous set of sims for only ten days.  And what should be foremost, it’s a wonderful opportunity to support Relay for Life and the American Cancer Society.

Please stop on by Spyralle at the Fantasy Faire, and support the cause!

Fantasy Faire 2018 — Spyralle’s Timeless Folly

Some big things are afoot at Fantasy Faire 2018, including a beautiful little architectural marvel by Spyralle.  Fans of Spyralle will know that Kerryth creates not only dresses and jewelry but other knick-knacks and decorations as well.  She’s created two lovely pieces for the Fantasy Faire, the first of which I’m showing you this morning.

I really love the little accents that make this a Spyralle special.  The most obvious is the fractal-decorated glass vaulted ceiling.  If you have full lighting effects on (shadows, in particular), that ceiling makes a gorgeous shadow below.

Timeless Folly has a beautiful sense of grandeur and scale…. with lovely little accents.   As rezzed, it has a default LI of 21.  Resizing will adjust LI accordingly, but be wary – adjusting the size back and forth can play silly games with LI and mesh — I had a small cute version at 4 LI, then resized to about half-default height — and ended up at 30!   That’s okay, it’s copy, so re-rez and start again!

Take a look at the Spyralle at the Fantasy Faire, and support the cause!

Fantasy Faire 2018 — Silvan Moon Design’s Moonstone

The 2018 Fantasy Faire is here, and there are SOOO many goodies to share with you over the next week! Let’s start with this beautiful one from Silvan Moon Designs!  Moonstone may be my favourite gown out of SMD in quite a while — and that’s saying something!

Moonstone comes in three pieces – skirt, top/overskirt, and sleeves.  The mesh and texturing on each is lovely.

So, I feel kind of bad that I didn’t shoot the other amazing colours for this post, but you’ll just have to stop by Fantasy Faire 2018 and take a look for yourself.  Bee and Solas have a whole LOT of beautiful goodies for you at the Faire, and I’ll show you a few more over the next week.  But don’t dawdle — the Faire won’t last forever.  Ten short days, and it will be but a memory.

Mahalo!  A hui hou!


Light as a sparrow

She woke early, as was her want, and stepped out through the early morning fog.  The smell of the spring was all about her, moist and earthy, the morning air chill, but she could feel the warmth that would come later in the day.

Sparrow Lightheart is available in eight lovely colours, and comes with applier tights for a less formal look.

Spring was finally coming… perhaps the cold would return in a day or two, or in a week… but it will not last, she could hear the life in the forest returning.  

Bee and Solas keeep turning out amazing work.  Stop by We Love Role Play and take a demo of Sparrow Lightheart (or better yet, just pick up the whole fatpack!) — and take a look around the rest of the event.  This is one of those monthly events that just does not disappoint.

Mahalo!  A hui hou!


Hau`oli Lā Hānau Kerryth!

Kerryth at Spyralle has turned ten, and the presents are for you!  For a VERY limited time, Kerryth offers Coelis, a beautiful gown in purple to her group!  If that wasn’t all, nearly every purple item at Spyralle is on sale for 50% off!

EarthStonesPlayful Dolphins works really well with this gown, and the choice of stones is perfect: the mother-of-pearl matches the buttons on the gown wonderfully.

Coelisis available in fitmesh for both SLink bodies, Maitreya, TMP, Belleza Venus, and a standard fitmesh.  I really love the lace panel and buttons at the front!

Hau`oli Lā Hānau Kerryth!  Congratulations on ten years of orbits about the SecondLife Sun, and thanks for sharing your art with us!  For the rest of us, hurry on out to Spyralle!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

 


Reflections

I am so excited to share the latest offering from Nickki at  Island Style Designs with you!  Nickki has created a gorgeous swimsuit and pareo combo with a fantastic shiny metallic texture.

In the daylight, it looks like this: (note: advanced lighting and materials must be enabled!)

The outfit is fitmesh, and comes rigged for Maitreya, both SLink, all three Belleza bodies, both EVE bodies, TMP, and Altamura.    The strapless suit features some lovely pink lacing in the back, and a subtle green/red/yellow shading for the floral pattern.

Where this suit and pareo really shine (so to speak) is in the dark with some interesting lighting effects.  I waded into the water with my pareo still on, and added a little extra lighting to make the suit really shine.  You can see the lights really reflected in the suit.

I really loved the pareo, but did finally take it off to just show the suit on its own.   It’s somewhat lower cut at the hips, giving a lovely slightly retro feel and look.

We’ve seen body-specific fitmesh explode into SL, and while there has been a lot of materials-enabled textures, we haven’t seen lots of reflective clothing.  This is gorgeous, and is sure to be an attention-getter at parties.

Stop on by the new Island Style Designs and take a look today!  Mahalo!  A hui hou!
