Get me to the beach!

I am so ready for the Sun.  It will burn me to a crisp if I’m not careful, but I need the Sun and the warmth, I need the waves at my ankles, I need the smell of flowers in the air.

And Nickki Romano at Island Style Designs knows it, and is ready for us.  Nickki’s been gone a while but has brought ISD back in fine fashion with new fitmesh clothing in her distinctly beautiful island patterns! I get to show you the lovely Lokilani today, available in a twenty different textures!  

Nickki has thankfully included fitmesh for all of the major bodies — all three Belleza bodies, both SLink, and Maitreya, as well as TMP, plus about three rigged mesh sizes.

I’ve also been shopping for hair lately — who doesn’t love a new style?  It’s rough for those of us with curly hair, though — I still haven’t found good mesh-only curly hair.  But I did find some lovely new styles from *ARGRACE* that suit me just fine!  I love Karin, it has these optional whisps that you can either wear forward over your shoulders or back behind your back.  They’re a lovely little touch!

Stop on by Island Style Designs and see what new things Nickki has been creating for us.  There’s more coming that I am very excited to show you, so stay tuned.

Happy aloha Friday, everyone!  Mahalo!  A hui hou!


Slick

Who says wonderful things have to be spendy?  [Appliers By Valarie] has a host of amazing bodysuit appliers that you have to see to believe.    I picked up a wonderful dollarbie, their Black 50% Catsuit.  It’s got a beautiful gloss (you’ll need to turn up the shine if you’re using the bodysuit on Maitreya Lara.  And oooooo is it transparent.

How transparent is 50% black?  VERY.  How shiny is it?  EVEN MORE.

So… what do you do if you want to wear a shiny bodysuit but social mores frown on being so transparent?  You layer it with something more opaque on a lower layer!

This has become my favourite catsuit, and all for a single linden!

Mahalo, my friends!  A hui hou!


Shiny

Alaska Metro <3 featured this amazing bodysuit back in December for an event, and while I stopped and picked it up, I hadn’t had the chance to share it with you before now.  Kristal is an applier bodysuit that has beautiful reflective detail.  It’s just glorious as you dance under coloured lights!

A good bodysuit works on a Friday night out visiting the clubs….. but is even better when you can come home and lose the jeans…

Kristal comes with two versions, one featuring a modesty panel for those who would rather not be quite so… transparent.  This is definitely one of the best applier textures I’ve ever seen!

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

Réalta

Kerryth at Spyralle has a wonderful treat.  Réalta was originally offered for the Team Diabetes Winter Showcase, which has now passed by, but it’s now available for purchase in the Spyralle main store!

Réalta comes in the standard five rigged mesh sizes, plus fitmesh for the standard body and for Physique and Hourglass bodies only.  That said, I had no problem using the standard fitmesh on my Lara with the appropriate use of alpha zones.  I LOVE this gown!  Long mesh gowns are always a chore to dance in, but this one is still such a happiness!

Kerryth has five beautiful textures for Réalta.  I loved them so much I couldn’t pick just one to blog, but you’ll have to wait until next week to see the others!  Stop by Spyralle, and look back here next week to see the other textures!

Bright in a glade

We <3 Role-Play is back and Solas and Bee at Silvan Moon Designs have created a lovely gown for the occasion.  Brightwood Mist is available in fitmesh for SLink and Maitreya bodies, and is a wonderful simple medieval-themed piece.  I was feeling rather springy today (I know, I’m jumping the calendar a little), but it would suit quite well in any environment!

nine beautiful shade plus a fatpack, 25% off for the event!

Brightwood Mist comes in nine beautiful shades, as well as a fatpack if you can’t make up your mind!

Bee and Solas have marked Brightwood Mist down 25% for the duration of  We <3 Role-Play.  Stop by and take a look, it’s a fun time of the year to shop!

Sweaters and snowfalls

You may have noticed, I love a sweater and tights and boots!  This beautiful little Christmas gifty from ! Maci ! is perfect with my Baby Monkey tights!

Okay, snow is no good for plumeria, so I found a lovely evergreen wreath with baby’s breath from Persefona.  It’s lovely and happy, and is just the right touch for my winter look!

! Maci ! has a host of happy gifties, some for the holidays and some just their normal lovely attire, stop by and take a look!  Is anyone else excited for the season?  I’m like a little girl when I see all the lights!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

 


warm against the cold

A bit of warmth as the temperature drops- a lovely sweater dress and top from Paper Moon, and some glorious warm boots from Belle Epoque!  They’re both group gifts, so don’t delay!

Happy Friday, my wonderful friends!  I wish you a wonderful weekend!  Mahalo!  A hui hou!


The Dark Queen

The latest round of Enchantment is open, and the theme is Snow White!  Our favourite fantasy purveyors, Silvan Moon Designs, has a sponsor booth with a new original mesh dress, the Evil Queen Grimhilde!

Grimhilde comes in six beautiful dark colours in fitmesh for SLink and Maitreya bodies.

There are five different components to this gown — the gown itself, an overskirt, sleeves, belt, and collar.  All are fitmesh save the collar, which is mod and resizeable.

Please visit Enchantment today — as all dreams, it is fleeting.  It’s a lovely shopping experience, and there are many wonderful things to find!

a hidden oasis

As the heat of the afternoon fell away and softer breezes blew across the sands, she slipped from the safety of the seraglio and out to visit her hidden oasis… a place of beauty and respite.

I’m a sucker for beautiful silks, diaphanous and flowing.  Caverna Obscura surely has mastered this art, combining fitmesh for those of us who love our mesh bodies with flexiprims for skirts.  Starlight certainly is an excellent example.  I stumbled across it while looking for some white silks for a recent event at Eden, and immediately fell in love.

Starlight features fitmesh sleeves, top, and skirt — each in a opaque and diaphanous fitmesh and rigged mesh version, with flexiprim silks to augment.  But wait, Aeon, you say!  long mesh skirting is horrid for dancing, you always say so!   Ahhhh, but Caverna was thinking ahead: there’s a full flexi skirt in here as well, so that nothing impedes your movement!

All of the floral enhancements (with exception of Persefona’s wreath crown) are separate mesh pieces, and can be worn or left off at your convenience.  This is truly an amazing piece, and a beautiful addition to Caverna’s line.

Join me at the oasis… feel the cool waters at your feet, the lovely breeze at your cheek, whispering through your hair….

Mahalo!   A hui hou!
