A Goddess for a reason

Aeon Fashion, LotD, Sponsored

Did you see what I did there?

Athena, goddess of intelligence, creativity, and reason — and, in a swirl of silks, the latest offering in Carrie’s Lingerie VIP group.

You may choose to shed the gown for the corset.. for a more.. intimate… setting.

athene_c007

There’s so much here to talk about: matching pumps, jewelry, and a beautiful makeup kit.  The standard layer makeup is a full-set tattoo, but the omega appliers are independently selectable for eye and lippy.  I wish that the decoration to the outside of the eye was also independently selectable, but it’s a great effect overall.

As a friend of mine said, the collar/choker alone is worth the price of admission!

The third configuration is a ‘decoration-only’ mode – no gown, no corset, just decorations… and panties or no, as you choose.  It’s a lovely with the silks!

athene_c008If you’re not a member of Carrie’s VIP group, it’s a pretty nice deal.  It’s a little spendy to join — about the price of one of Carrie’s lovely outfits — but there are lovely gifts, and first crack at new products.

Mahalo! A hui hou!

The Roaring Twenties by the Light of the Moon

Aeon Fashion, LotD, Reviews, Sponsored

There are some eras that always seem a little more glamorous, a little more sparkly.  One of my favourites is the Roaring Twenties, that amazing decade between the end of The Great War and the beginning of The Great Depression — filled with jazz, booze, and gangsters.  Women found their voice with the right of franchise in the US in 1920, and celebrated their freedoms and their choices in music and in dance.

As an exclusive for the Lovecraft Festival (Lovefest), Silvan Moon Designs brings us an homage to the Roaring Twenties in Ain’t Misbehavin’, a beaded all-mesh dress in four perfect shades.
AintMisbehavin_c015

Dressed by Lexi rounded out this outfit with Maui Pearls, perfect flapper-era shoes, and the Tantalize jewelry set (earrings and armlets).   I really love mixing and matching from different outfits to get the right look.  Ain’t Misbehavin’ includes that treat headband, shaded for each of the dresses!

AintMisbehavin_c014Ain’t Misbehavin’ comes in four shades, three of them shown here for your perusal.

There’s one more shade, a beautiful rose, but you’ll have to stop by the Lovecraft Festival and check that one out yourself.

AND — before I forget, the creators of Silvan Moon Designs — Solas (of Blue Moon Enterprises) and Bee (of The White Armory) — have additional news!  Solas has moved Blue Moon’s inworld mainstore to The White Armory sim.  You can find satisfy all of your era-specific clothing at the same sim!  Stop on by and visit!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

The magic of summer

Aeon Fashion, Reviews, Sponsored

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!

Boho class

Aeon Fashion, LotD, Reviews

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!

BohoCulture_c020

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

Captivating

Aeon Fashion, LotD, Reviews

Dressed by Lexi brings us a lovely gift this month, the seductive Captivate gown.  Lexi has created all of my favourite gowns, and Captivate is a very sexy little number with Omega appliers and a flexi-prim skirt, the best for dancing!
captivate_c006

I’ve added a lovely little jewelry set from (Style Society).  This was a gift from one of my first friends in SL, and it makes me think of her every time I wear it!

captivate_c009

Captivate is available in six beautiful colours, and Lexi has shoes and a jewelry set to match them.  They shoes and jewelry set feature texture-change HUDs, and are sure to accentuate not only this gown, but other items in your wardrobe as well.

Take a look at Dressed by Lexi today, I’m sure you’ll find it just as… captivating.

Mahalo, and a hui hou!

A Glass of Burgundy

Aeon Fashion, LotD, Reviews, Sponsored

Carrie’s Lingerie has brought us a lovely gown and lingerie set, the lovely Brea.  As a gown, Brea features a lovely flexi skirt to complement the Omega applier / SL layer body and stockings (and gloves).

Brea_c013

The lingerie features the same body/torso as the gown, save without the transparent panel.    Brea is a beautiful gown, and reminds me of Carrie’s older Holiday Sparkles gown.  (Oooh, an applier re-release of that would be wonderful, Carrie!)

Mahalo, and a hui hou!

Suited for the Valley Isle

Aeon Fashion, LotD, Reviews

Beautiful Maui, the Valley Isle.  Also, beautiful Maui, newly updated from Dressed by Lexi!  I’ve had the Maui in ‘Ocean’, a beautiful blue and green batik design since it first came out, but it was released  shortly before Lexi started releasing clothing in Omega appliers.

Maui_c031

Maui_c035Maui comes in standard appliers with two different length flexi-prim skirts — a short one making a nice breezy dress perfect for the casual affair (dancing!), and an ankle-length one for an elegant evening gown.  The Omega appliers are sold separately, so those of us who have already purchased Maui can upgrade for a pittance.

Maui_c003

And if you haven’t purchased Maui yet?  Lexi has place the entire line (all six colour/textures) on sale for the next week as part of Fifty5 Thursday!  I had to pick up the purple Ginger.

Maui_c021

Maui_c009

Dressed by Lexi also has a lovely companion jewelry set featuring necklace, earrings, and armlets.  Four different metals and eight jewels are HUD-selectable.  The haku lei — the plumeria head wreath – is from Island Style Designs.

Maui_c026

Thanks for plowing through this – I really wanted to show off this amazing dress/gown.  And a huge thank-you — mahalo nui loa — to Lexi for releasing this.  I’ve been looking forward to Maui appliers for a year now!  Stop on by Dressed by Lexi to see all six colours, and all the other amazing styles she has to offer!

Mahalo, all!

Melting into Spring

Aeon Fashion, LotD, Reviews, Sponsored

From your silver-white winter, Solas from Blue Moon brings us a lovely dress for Spring!  Rebecka is an exclusive for the Fantasy Cream event, and is available only there until April 18!

Rebecka_019_c

Rebecka comes in three different fitmeshes for Slink, Belleza/Maitreya, and for the Classic SL body.  There’s a demo available, so please try that first!

Rebecka_023_c

Solas has created three lovely colours for Rebecka – the green-and-yellow Leaf shown above, the blue and green Sky shown below, as well as a lovely pink-and-coral Petal.  I’ll admit, I wasn’t set to turn blond today, so you’ll just have to stop by Fantasy Cream if you would like to see the pink!  But I feel so totally Dorothy in this lovely frock!
 Rebecka_006_c

Please be sure to visit the Fantasy Cream hunt.  There’s a lovely head wreath for Blue Moon’s hunt gift,  and you can vote for your favourites and win some cool prizes!  It’s definitely an event not to miss!

Aloha and mahalo, my friends!

 

A little retro for spring

Aeon Fashion, LotD, Reviews, Sponsored

Blue Moon Enterprises has a lovely gift for you all this month, with a bit of 1950’s retro styling.  Lana is a beautiful little springy dress in fitmesh.  It’s a beautiful little number!

Lana_005

Speaking of beautiful numbers, wow, there’s no one that can shake it like the King… but don’t we all try?

Lana_011

Mahalo, my friends, and aloha!

Éire go Brách!

Aeon Fashion, LotD, Reviews

I’ve long had an uneasy relationship with St. Patrick’s day.  If you want to know why, you can take a look here.  But it’s always a great day to celebrate Éirinn, so I just had to share Celtic Beauty with you, a lovely gown with a flexiprim skirt, mesh earrings and crown, and an optional cape.   Dressed by Lexi keeps adding Slink and Omega appliers to outfits, and the result is something to raise a glass of Guinness over!

CelticBeauty_017_c

  • Dressed by Lexi – Celtic Beauty (with included jewelry, applier sold separately)
  • Chez GiGi – Monaco Gold Evening Sandals

CelticBeauty_021_c

The Celtic knot detailing is just amazing, on the top, cape, and hem, and the golden ivy crown is the perfect complement.

CelticBeauty_001_c

And you can always shrug off the cape to reveal a light and gauzy skirt that flows wonderfully for dancing!
 CelticBeauty_016_c

Please do stop by Lexi’s and take a look at her lovely offerings.  And however – and whatever –  you celebrate, please do so responsibly!  Éire go Brách!  

Mahalo – Go raibh maith agat!
