Fantasy Faire 2018 — Silvan Moon Designs’ Windsor Palace

So, first let me apologise: I had taken pics for two of Silvan Moon Designs‘ Fantasy Faire gowns several weeks apart (yes, I got advanced copies for blogging) and had no idea that I’d used the same hair and jewelry for each.  I really hate doing that, particularly for posts that are within a few days of each other.  That said, I loved how they worked for each gown, and I certainly wasn’t going to go back and re-shoot with something that worked less well!

That said, Solas and Bee present the Windsor Palace Gown for the Fantasy Faire 2018.  And where else should we take pics?  Why in Buckingham Palace, of course!

A word about the lovely Leah jewelry set from *AvaWay*.  The full set includes bracelets as well (not worn in this outfit) and an incredible texture-change hud that allows you five choices of metal colour and eight choices of gem colour, as well as the ability to change the texture of half of the gems independently of the other half.   It’s lacey teardrop motif is a perfect match to Windsor Palace.

Time is running out for Fantasy Faire 2018.  Put the party on hold for a little bit, anything that can wait should — the sims are beautiful and the goodies are amazing.

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!


Little black opalescence

Hello, all!  Every girl needs her little black dress (or two, or three, or…) and a little iridescence is just perfect for this girl.  Little Black Dress is taking part in the Grow Your Awareness hunt to raise awareness for Autism Spectrum Disorder, and has two fabulous little gifties hidden in the store.  One is Opal, the fabulous minidress shown here.

Let’s make it abundantly clear: Autism Spectrum Disorder needs medical attention, and NO, there is ZERO evidence that vaccinations have anything to do with it.  Don’t be stupid, get vaccinated, and get your kids vaccinated.  While some people have been wasting time and resources on ridiculous conspiracy theories that have been repeatedly disproven, the real scientists are out there working to find out what does lead to autismPlease help contribute to that research today.

soak up da sun!

Feel the warm sun on your skin… feel the moana makani, the breeze off the ocean… the sand warm under your feet, the squeak as it shifts under your steps.

Baby Monkey has just released the Cara Tropics dress, a beautiful tight minidress with fourteen texture choices.  I think I’ll be tugging at the hem a bit, it’s that short!

Island Style Designs has introduced the loveliest pair of rubber slippahs.  The “flip-flops” themselves are well-detailed and come in versions for Belleza, Maitreya, and SLink flat feet, but what makes them special is the lovely little plumeria detail.  it features a texture-change HUD with twenty-two different plumeria blossom textures!

Bohemian Inspiration

Aloha, my lovely friends!  I was visiting the latest round of Inspiration and found this wonderful maxiskirt and top from ***ArisArisB&W that I just had to share with you!

Rhapsody features maxi skirt and top separates with a six-texture HUD.  The textures may be chosen independently, so you can take matching top & bottom or different to suit your mood and tastes!

Rhapsody comes in fitmesh for both SLink bodies, Maitreya Lara, all three Belleza, TMP, and both Tonic bodies, so it’s sure to fit you!

Normally I’m not a huge fan of mesh maxiskirts in-world — they generally just don’t dance well — but this one is gorgeous, and ***ArisArisB&W did a fantastic job with the mesh: it dances pretty nicely, provided you don’t kick your legs up too high!

Inspiration‘s theme this round is Boho, so stop by and take a look around: find some new ideas for spring!  Mahalo!  A hui hou!


Witchwood

So much happiness to share!  Petite Mort and Oubliette have moved to a new sim, Witchwood!  It’s a good opportunity to show you some lovely acquisitions I picked up from Petite Mort, the Royal Starlite sweater and the Burnout Velvet Skirt.

Both the Royal Starlight outfit and the Burnout Velvet skirt are slightly older releases.  They feature fitmesh for both SLink bodies and the Maitreya Lara.  Royal Starlight comes with a lovely little matching skirt, but I really liked how the top goes with the longer Burnout Velvet skirt.

Melora has created quite the beautiful little shopping experience at Witchwood.  There are many little scenes (like this one) that are perfect for taking pictures.  It’s really nicely done, stop by and have a look around.

Mahalo!  A hui hou!


Morning Daydream

Happy Aloha Friday, my lovely friends!  I know, pink normally isn’t my thing, but my wonderful friend Ems got me this lovely dusty rose dress for my rez-day, and I just had to share it with you.  🙂 

I really really love the lacey detail work on the bodice.  It’s perfectly done, and appears to be actual mesh as opposed to a texture done on a mesh panel.  The edges of the lace appear to curl up!

Thank you, Ems, for the lovely gift.  It’s beautiful, and definitely not something I would have ever gotten for myself – but all the more cherished.  🙂

Happy Aloha Friday, my wonderful friends!    Mahalo!  A hui hou!

 


Ariana

The March We Love Role Play event has started, and Silvan Moon Designs has a lovely outfit for you.  The Lady Ariana gown comes in nine different spring-light colours, including the white shown here.

Lady Ariana comes in fitmesh for both SLink bodies as well as the Maitreaya Lara, and demos are available at We Love Role Play as well as a fatpack with all nine colours!  There are two pieces, a bodice and skirt.  The gold brocade-type front panel is on white for all of the gowns.

Stop by the Silvan Moon Designs booth at We Love Role Play!  Silas and Bee make a wonderful team!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!


A taste of the East

Happy Monday, my lovely friends!  I just wanted to share this beautiful little cheongsam that I picked up recently from Emerald Couture at The Wash.

The dress comes in the five standard rigged mesh sizes, plus fitmesh for all your favourite bodies — all three Belleza, both SLink, Maitreay, both Tonic, TMP, and Ebody.  You’re well taken care of!

I really love to see fine mesh work and beautiful texturing come together in such a lovely package, it really sets a high bar for clothing in SL.
Have a wonderfully happy Monday everyone.  Mahalo!  A hui hou!
