Get your batiks on Route 66!

I stopped by the Route 66 Celebration in Mieville to enjoy a little slice of the American Southwest along Route 66!

Kerryth at Spyralle has a couple new items at Route 66, including three new Royal batik fabrics for her lovely mesh mu’u mu’u!
PalmGrove_c003

The mu’u mu’u is mesh in the five standard sizes, with attached sleeves, and works well with my Physique body.  I’ve paired it with some of my favourite go-tos — a plumeria necklace and a plumeria headpiece from Island Style Designs, as well as my recently-acquired honu earrings — also from Spyralle.

PalmGrove_c004For the guys, Spyrall offers matching shirts that look just fab.  But it doesn’t sound as if either the shirts or the mu’u mu’us are going to be in the main store any time soon, so you’d better dash to Route 66 by August 14th if you want to pick them up before the cold weather moves in!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

 


Bethani

Ana Markova has recently started doing fitmesh clothing yay!  Here’s August’s group gift.  The group is only L$100 to join, and with group gifts like this, it’s surely worth it.

Besides coming in the standard rigged mesh sizes, the shorts also come in fitmesh sizes for Hourglass, Freya, Isis. Maitreya, Slink, and TMP.  The top is also in standard sizes and while it only has a fitmesh version for Slink, it’s easy to get a size to fit Lara.

The magic of summer

Blue Moon Enterprises is currently participating in the Creations Park Shop, and is offering you an incentive to stop by and check it out.

100% of all proceeds from items sold at Creations Park go to Team Fox for research into treating Parkinson’s Disease.

SummerFae_c12

Summer Fae is a beautiful all-mesh two-layer dress and wings that I’m fairly sure must be made of pure fairy sparkles.  The wings are unscripted, but have a lovely gentle flutter to them – and the texture is gorgeous.

SummerFae_c09

Even if you fold your wings, you are still made of magic.
SummerFae_c05

Slip off the overdress…. and you have a classy number ready for an evening out.

SummerFae_c02

Solas already has a lovely August group gift out, this one is a bonus for the event.  Stop by Creations Park, pick up Summer Fae, and spend a few lindens.  You’ll help Team Fox fight against a nasty debilitating condition, and find some fantastic treasures for yourself!

Mahalo! A hui hou!


A jewel for royalty

Sometimes I’m just utterly amazed.  There are such incredible products out there in SL, and they keep getting better and better.  Eternal Jewel, the latest offering from Silvan Moon Designs for the Fantasy Gacha Carnival is just one of those amazing pieces.

Eternal Jewel is all-mesh, and like all of Silvan Moon Designs‘ products, comes in the five standard mesh sizes as well as Maitreya, Belleza, and Slink fitmesh.EternalJewel_c001

Now, I’ll tell you — Eternal Jewel has four common components (gown, overskirt, sleeves and belt), a rare crown, and an ultrarare colour-change HUD with seven different colours (green, aqua, blue, violet, red, white, black).   You can look at Blue Moon’s blog site to see the vendor pics featuring the HUD and one of the solid-colour schemes.  But what caught my eye was the ability to independently set the six different components of the outfit — and create your own distinct look. There are just too many options, but you can find some of my favourites below!

The Fantasy Gacha Carnival opens TODAY, August 7 SLT!  Please stop by — there are just too many treasures to pass up!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!


Janey

If you don’t know, Wetherby’s is a wonderfully generous designer, and the group is FREE to join.  Ms W does some lovely clothes and she offers different group gifts nearly every day!  Please run over to her store and have a look.  You won’t be disappointed.

This fab little dress comes in standard mesh sizes and had fitmesh sizes for Slink, Belleza, and Maitreya.  Ms W. made it to wear to work, but I’m going to wear it everywhere 🙂

Boho class

If you are a wanderer at heart or just love the comfortable easy boho style, you’ll love the August group gift from Dressed by Lexi.  Boho Culture features an all-mesh skirt with a beautiful lacey Omega applier top.
BohoCulture_c007

The Honu necklace by Spyralle is a second of three versions offered at the Genre:Polynesia event.  You can see a different version back in this post.
BohoCulture_c017VileCult is one of the many vendors at the Epiphany event.  They offer this lovely rainbow eyeshadow with Catwa and Omega appliers.  It’s nice and subtle, and definitely due to become a fave for me!

Some fun items are out and about to be found on your travels, so enjoy!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!


Green Envy

Did you know (of course you did) that there’s a lot of role play in Second Life?  These photos were taken at the Amazon River sim, a huge eight-sim wide role play area.  It also boasts one of the few (so far) user written experiences in SL.  Of course I only went there to find a location for this very risqué outfit.  The things I do for you, dear reader 🙂

green envy silks_001c

This outfit is mostly prim, and the top comes with a system layer and an Omega applier.  In case you’ve never met me in world, I’m pretty petite for an avatar in SL, standing only 6 feet (185cm) tall.  This outfit was designed for your standard sized Amazon, not little old me.  I scaled everything down as far as I could then had to edit each prim individually to get it sized to fit me.  You certainly need some building skills for this one 🙂

Longing for the horizon…

Fishwife:

  • a coarse-mannered woman who is prone to shouting.
  • (archaic) a woman who sells fish.

Let’s say that the gorgeous mesh netting on Blue Moon Enterprises‘s August Group Gift has something to do with fish, then, because I’d hate for anyone to think that I had coarse manners!

Fishwife_c006

Fishwife‘s beautiful mesh is available in the five standard mesh sizes.  I found it to be a bit tricky on the Physique mesh body due to awkwardly-positioned alpha zone boundaries, but the lovely design makes it worth it.

Fishwife_c008

I’ll admit – sometimes I get really excited about the pictures I take.  Most of the time, actually, I’m pretty happy about them, but sometimes I get particularly excited.  So… join me, and gaze to the far-off horizon.  What wonders await us out there?

A hui hou, my friends!  Mahalo!

Kimbra McMillan at Beloved Jewelry, one of my favourite jewelry makers in SL, gave me a few items some time ago, including a tiara.  I’m not overly fond of tiaras, but I’ve been looking for an opportunity to blog it for her.  And along comes this fabulous applier and prim gown from LC Fashion!

alya gown_001

This gown is currently FREE to all comers, so hurry and get yours!  It comes with pants, top, and gloves on system layers, and has appliers for Omega, Belleza, Lola Tangos, Maitreya, and Slink.  The gown also comes in two styles, the ball gown I am wearing here, and a less formal evening gown.

alya gown_003

A lot of Beloved Jewelry’s items are texture changeable so you can match with what you’re wearing (or in my case, select emeralds to offset my hair).  This tiara is no exception and allows you to select the metals, main and marquis gems, and the pearls from a huge range.

I’d also like to thank my friend Sophia “Queen of Fae” Hard for her wonderful location at  Castle of Fae, Artic Wolf.  Her beautiful castle and surrounding grounds are open to the public and are well worth a visit.
