Selenia of Galacia

Aeon Events, Fashion, LotD, Reviews

Solas and Bee at Silvan Moon Designs have created a lovely new gown for you, exclusive at We Love Role Play .  Selenia of Galacia comes in four different icy colours, each just perfect for the Yule Ball!

Selenia has a lovely Icy Pearls accent add-on (available separately) that adds a lovely touch to the gown.  I’m just a little bit disappointed in the pearls, however: while the Selenia gown comes in Maitreya, Physique, Hourglass and Classic fitmesh sizes, the pearls are available only in the five rigged mesh sizes, and as such are un-resizable.  I am wearing the smallest (xs) in the image below, and as you can see, they ‘hover’ a bit outside the fabric of the gown.  That’s not terrible, though, it gives some lovely three-dimensional magic to the outfit, which I actually rather like a lot.

Selenia of Galacia is a lovely gown, and like so much that you will find at We Love Role Play, completely tempting!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

That 70’s look

blue LotD

As Jaz said, sometimes you find mix’n’match stuff that somehow seems destined to go together.

We had a 70’s soul music thing at Eden yesterday, and this is what I put together to wear to the event!

I’m not going to detail sizes for you today, as I got both the shirt and jeans quite some time ago, but as they are both Lara fitmesh, you can probably guess the other sizes available.

Unlike Jazzy’s outfit yesterday, the jeans clip the shirt in one tiny location on the left hip, but I’d challenge anyone to notice this and call it out, even dancing.

And the hair, OMG!  I got this at this year’s Hair Fair and promptly filed it in my “Misc/Weird” hair folder, thinking I’d never have a reason to wear it.  But does it work well with a 70’s look?  You bet it does 🙂

Nights on the Street

Jaz Fashion, Reviews

Sometimes a photo shoot takes you in a direction you hadn’t intended but you end up there as you go along. Such is the case here, where the outfits and settings lent themselves to a, shall we say, ladies of the evening sort of look.

The idea, though, was to do another highlight of how mixing and matching things from your existing wardrobe can give you new looks or new creative ideas. In these shots you can see in terms of accessories and the like there is a lot of crossover. So when you are thinking, “Hmm I want to wear something black, what can I put together?” start sifting through the inventory drawers and experimenting to see what you come up with. You might find yourself going down a whole different path than you had planned. 🙂

Witch Hazel

Aeon Events, Fashion, Reviews

Oh just one more little bit of magic before the all Hallow’s, as the fae dance about in the falling turning leaves.  It seemed to be the time of the tunics at We Love Role Play this month.  I showed you one last week, let me show you the other today —  Witch Hazel from Dreaming Thicket!

I really love the little details on Witch Hazel.  The moonphase belt is a beautiful little touch, just the right bit of magic.

This month’s We Love Role Play is just about over.  Stop on by and find Witch Hazel and so many other lovely treasures before November hits!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

Lizette Argent

Aeon Events, LotD, Reviews, Sponsored

I always love We Love Role Play, it’s a really nicely-sized event, and there are so many wonderful things to discover.  Today I’d like to show you Lizette Argent Wench dress set by Silvan Moon Designs exclusively at the event!

The Gypsy necklace and earring set from/me EarthStones is a perfect complement to this look!

Lizette Argent is a three-piece set, with separate gown, vest and apron that could be worn separately.

Lizette Argent is available in seven different lovely earthy tones.  I’ll admit, I almost always try the green shades first… but I loved the natural (shown above) so much that I have focused in that one.  Nevertheless, the other shades are gorgeous, and there’s almost certainly something here to draw your interest.

 

Please stop by We Love Role Play today, and take a look at everything they have to offer.  You’ll leave a few lindens lighter… but much happier!

Mahalo!  A hui hou kakou!

Daydream Romper

Jaz Fashion, Reviews

Recently at the Dark Style event I came across a lovely romper and boot combination outfit from Beautiful Dirty Rich. The romper is available in three different fat packs, one with 20 patterns, one with 11 crochet designs, and another with 11 lace designs. The boots are available in a fat pack with 11 solid colors and 20 pattern colors, matching those of the romper.

I love all the various pattern and color options, and it’s always a delight when a vendor creates a set allowing you to color match boots with an outfit!

Both romper and boots are now available at BDR’s main store so you don’t need to go through the event to find them (it’s a great event but quite laggy!).

It may be getting a little bit chilly for such a short style, but hey it is always warm in SL! Cheers!

Autumn Faerie

Jaz Fashion, Reviews

I go to a lot of events and often discover someone new (for me) with just the right thing. The Leaves of Time faerie outfit by Trinity is a delightful set of… well, leaves! But it exudes just the right air of happy (and sexy) fae-ness. The set includes the top, bottom, arm vines, and leg vines, along with a bonus shirt that covers a little bit more that shown here.

Leaves of Time comes with an eight color HUD of various fall colors, and each of the parts of the outfit can be colored separately. I found the set provides the perfect foundation for adding in lots of fun detail items with an autumn motif.

Come dance through the forest with me, dear friends! Cheers!

Powers of Prediction

Aeon Events, Fashion, LotD, Reviews, Sponsored

I foresee people coming together to help out those less fortunate.  Hey, look at that, I’m right! Don’t call me a Sybil, that’s really just the beautiful new dress that Kerryth at Spyralle has created for Spoonful of Sugar, an event to help support Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) (Doctors Without Borders).

So I’m always on the prowl for good new hair.  Curly hair is rough — there’s lots of mesh hair for straight locks, but my curls are rough to reproduce in-world.  Often the hair I wear for walking around in-world is different from what I wear for photos — hair with flexies is rough on photos, but it can sure look good as you dance or walk about in-world.  So I was really excited to find Leela from Analog Dog at SoS.  It’s not an exclusive there — it’s also at the mainstore — but I believe that the purchases at SoS contribute to MSF, so it’s a good time to buy!  Leela is very similar to my go-to hair (Annie, also from Analog Dog) — but it’s a bit longer, with a lovely curl over my right eye.  🙂

Sybil comes in six lovely colours, each in a “glyph” and “plain” version.  You might guess which I prefer!  I love this dress so much that I might have obtained four of the six available colours!

My friends, have a wonderful weekend.  Stop by Spoonful of Sugar, get some lovely things, and help out MSF.  The only thing better than finding new treasures is helping others out in the process!

Mahalo, my friends!  A hui hou!

A Blue Jeans Sort of Day

Jaz Fashion, Reviews

Blueberry is one of my fave clothing makers – the quality and fit are really some of the best in Second Life. Recently they released a new pair of jeans that not only look good but are nicely versatile too, featuring both flare and skinny jeans versions.

The jeans feature a string detail in front and the fabric has richly detailed creases and folds.

The flare jeans feature a tall hip hugger style, with two versions, one for high feet and one for flat feet with your toes peeking out.

The jeans are for Maitreya Lara, and come as a fat pack with 29 single colors, as well as various pattern options and ombre colors. It also includes two sets of options with the belt or without.

The skinny version features a lower cut over the tummy, and string detailing at the back of the ankles.

Snuggle into some jeans with me? Cheers!

A flyaway dress for a breezy day

Aeon Fashion, LotD, Reviews

Happy Aloha Friday, my wonderful friends!  I thought I’d share this beautiful summery dress that I picked up a bit earlier in the season with you.  Summer for Your Heart is a beautiful fluttery dress from DE.Boutique that just calls to me on such a beautiful day!

  • DE.Boutique — Summer to Your Heart dress (Freya/Venus/Isis/Maitreya/Physique/EBody Curvy/TMP fitmesh)
  • EarthStones — Playful Dolphins necklace and earrings
  • Persefona — Samia Wreath (navy)
  • Rebel Hope — Laguna mesh sandals
  • an lar [poses] — The Julep Series – Two pose

Summer for Your Heart has a beautiful eight-texture HUD that has some wonderful patterns on it: I have a hard time deciding on my favourite! 

I totally love the Laguna sandals from Rebel Hope.  I just wish, I really really wish that creators who made barefoot sandals would rig them for the SLink Kitten feet!  PLEASE!

I’m going to have to run back and see what else DE.Boutique has to offer.  In the meantime, have a wonderful happy Friday!

A hui hou kākou!
