TRIANGULATE! TRIANGULATE!

Aeon Fashion, LotD, Reviews, Sponsored

Newness for your inner geek!  Let your nerdiness take over the ‘verse!  Jadziyah at Eclectic Stars has some sweet mesh leggings for you!  They’re maybe not the warmest for the winter, those are triangular cutouts!  They’re fun and just a little cheeky.

Who wouldn’t want to be warm and snuggly in a hoodie like this?  8-bit graphics and a zipper down just so. Perfect for a tease of a t-shirt underneath… or just a little skin.  Or even better, a pendant that that Daleks would surely love to get their hands on — a lovely little treat from the Harambee Gwassi-Kenya Charity Shop, complete with matching earrings.

The leggings are available in a host of fun patterns — stop by Eclectic Stars and check them all out!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

Shimmering like snow

Aloha kakou!  It has been a busy holiday season and I’ve been too long away — visiting family and then a research conference and the start of the term kept me awfully busy.

But I’m back to show you a lovely reissued gown from Spyralle.  Chione was a daily advent gifty back in December, and features a flexi skirt and new omega appliers!  Long time readers know how much I like a flexi skirt for dancing.  They just look so much better than long mesh!

I think that I have showed off the Twinkling Lights jewelry — earrings, bracelet, anklet, and necklace (not shown) — in an earlier post.  I’ll admit I wear them every chance I can get in this snowy season!

I hope that you had a wonderful season.  I know some of us will be happier for the end of cold and snow (I will be for the sake of getting to run outside again!) but I still love cuddling up in front of a warm fire while it’s snowy outside — or taking a nice walk in a snowstorm with that someone special.

Mahalo to Kerryth at Spyralle for a great holiday season, and for updating so many outfits with Omega appliers.  I’ll surely be showing you some more from there!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

8-bit Holiday Cheer

Aeon Fashion, LotD, Reviews, Sponsored

You know that bit where you find a creator that gets you?  Someone who understands your style?  I’ll admit I’m lucky to be sponsored by a number of such wonderful artists here on the blog, but let me squee a little bit about Eclectic Stars.

8-bit Christmas is a lovely version of Eclectic Stars‘ Shifty dress.  I do so love a sweaterdress and tights in the cold months!  I’m even more amused because the 8-bit-style images both evoke the `old’ days of computer graphics… but also fit in just fine with sweater graphics limitations!

I hope wherever you are that your season is filled with bright lights and starry skies… and friends and family surrounding you.

And… as a friend pointed out to me… some of the rest of us need to always know — ʻaʻole ʻoe e hoʻokahi wale nō, ʻaʻole ʻoe e poina ʻia.  You are not alone, you are not forgotten.

Mele Kalikimaka a Hau’oli Lā Nui!

Have you been to 2nd Level yet?   No?  WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? There are SOOO many pretties!  Take a look at Dora from GLITTER, a lovely top-and-leggings combo.   Mind you, I love dresses and skirts, but some places are just too chilly for that in the winter — so bring on the leggings and tights!

Dora’s top and leggings are separate pieces, each rigged mesh component in the five standard sizes.  You can mix and match to get your look!

Head on over to 2nd Level and see what there is to see!  And stop by  GLITTER‘s main store, the advent calendar is lovely.

Mahalo, all!  A hui hou!

Victorian Elegance

Aeon Events, Fashion, LotD, Reviews, Sponsored

For the Winter Solstice Event, Sylvan Moon Designs brings you Victoria Faun, a beautiful gown in three parts (skirt, jacket and bodice) and a cute little pillbox hat.  It seems the perfect gown for a Midwinter Ball!
 victoriafaun_c007

The detail on this gown – from the mesh to the textures – is amazing.  I love the little filligree at the bodice, arms, and back.  That shouldn’t be surprising, Solas and Bee do incredible work!

victoriafaun_c004

Victoria Faun is available in four different colours: Ice, shown above, royal blue, maroon, and hunter green.   The hunter green is my other favourite, and here I thought I’d try a slightly different look – a little more wild, a little more steampunk.  It’s amazing how just a few details will change the tone of an outfit!

victoriafaun_c001

The tome I’m looking for isn’t here… someone must have removed it… but who?

victoriafaun_c003

So, just a little grumble — make sure you grab the landmark to the Winter Solstice Event here, because it’s not easy to find otherwise.  I’m not sure that Pale Girl Productions (running the show) is trying hide the LM, but they’re not making it easy.  I can’t figure out why — if I were Solas or Bee I’d be a little honked off that PGP is making it harder for people to come to the event!

That said, there are some beautiful things there to find!  Stop by and take a look, and then head over to Silvan Moon Designs —  Solas and Bee create some amazing things for your shopping — and wearing — pleasure!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

Mmmms ,warm and snug and still sexy for the winter?  Yes, please!  I love a sweater and tights, and Alaska Metro <3 has the lovely Heather sweater dress in 6 colours!  It’s hard to beat a nice form-fitting sweaterdress in the cooler months.

To seek out new life, and new civilisations…

Aeon Fashion, LotD, Reviews, Sponsored

I’m so happy to announce that I’m now an official blogger for Eclectic Stars!  Jadziyah has a wonderful sense of style for all the nerds out there of every stripe!   Let me share with you a great example of her work — Shifty — and maybe stir up a little controversy!

shifty_c004

Rowena Springlower’s Tanith boot is the perfect fit to complement this outfit, and comes with a fantastic colour HUD!

Hmmm… now, how did that happen?  Let me check my code….

shifty_c002

As you might expect, Shifty is available in three colours: blue, red, and gold for science, engineering, and command.  Hmm, tricorders have gotten smaller over the years… who could have guessed?
 shifty_c008

Wait, what controversy?  Jadziyah named each outfit for the colour scheme on the new series – where command is red and engineering is gold.  In the original 1966 series, gold was for command, and red for engineering and security!  I’ve seen angry fights break out over this that make some sporting rivalries look tame!  And yes, blue was science in all series.

shifty_c006

Whichever side of the controversy you’re on, you’ll love Shifty.  It’s available in fitmesh for Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink Physique bodies, as well as the standard five mesh sizes.    Beam on over to Eclectic Stars and see what other fab things there are for you to find!

Lady of the Highlands

Aeon LotD, Reviews, Sponsored

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.

ladybrochtuarach_c007

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!

Okay, I love Susanne Vega, so this must makes me grin a LOT.

I’ve been very excited to share this outfit with you!  A wonderful friend gave me a beautiful birthday gift: Genie, a beautiful mesh outfit from Caverna Obscura, and I’ve been anxious to show you all!

Genie is glorious.  It’s available in Maitreya and Slink fitmesh, and available in three different colours: the purple shown here, black, and gold.  All three are beautifully tempting, and while I deliberated,  I had to choose purple.  🙂

Each colour comes in two versions: the transparent one, and an opaque if you wish to be a little more discrete.

Genie is a perfect opportunity for to show off Nefertiti, the beautiful kohl from [GA.EG].

genie_c028

Caverna Obscura has always had beautiful outfits, and I’m so happy to see their outfits now in mesh-body-friendly fitmesh.  Please stop by and take a look!  Please note that Caverna offers a demo for Genie, but all of the outfit components are locked together.  In the full version, each of the components may be worn independently!

The seasons are turning, but not too much to get to the beach!  This lovely little wrap-around top and pair of shorts from L.c is perfect for beachcombing.
