Fantasy Faire 2021: A dryad dream

Bright as a sunbeam, as warm as dark forest loam, sparkling like rain….

Aloha kākou! Greetings from the Faire!

Before I even start, OMG what a beautiful sim the wonderful and talented Gidgy has created! Last year she wowed us at FF2020 with Queensgarden. This year she was asked to decorate the FF2021 Quest Sim, and she has created The Seventh Valley. Okay, it’s probably awfully early to say so, but it’s DEFINITELY my favourite sim at the Faire. Come and see, you won’t regret it. It is alive with magic, with life, with growth… with hope.

I’ve got two lovely little items for you that I picked up at the Faire. You’ll recognise my dryad — I’ve featured her before in several posts, and she’s truly one of my very favourite personas. I am absolutely delighted when I find new treasures for her. I found a number of new things last year at the Faire, and this year is no different!

The first thing I want to share with you is the lovely little Mirkwood Mask from Bliensen + MaiTai. The mask is unrigged and resizable, and comes in three different versions: all gold, all silver, and a beautiful wood with green leaves that matches my arm and leg vines from SBPC.

The other happy shiny here are a new set of wings from -FAS-. Faery Wings are a lovely set of bento locust-wings. They come in three different sets, each with up to nine different textures. The texturing and materials on these are beautiful, and they shine wonderfully in the light. They even come with a bento animation hud!

Oh!  And let me not forget the wonderful poses from Pink Moon!  They have several wonderful sets for the Faire, and I’ve got two samples here from the  Gypsy Soul and My Beautiful Star sets!

How can I not have fallen in love with her? She is all my best moments — full of joy and life, little and fierce and bright. Everything that I want to share with others around me.

I hope you are having a wonderful Faire-day! I will see you around the Fairegrounds!

A hui hou kākou!

Esmeralda

Aeon Events, LotD, Reviews

While the world may sometimes look dark, take a moment and listen — the birds sing, the flowers bloom. The breeze blows in the trees. The Planet, in all Her majesty, dances on. How can we not pause to hear the piper?


Aeon’s pose is 99 Luftballoons 5 (rev) from {NanTra}

Welina mai kākou!

We’re just over half-way through June, and the June edition of We Love Role Play is going strong! Bee and Solas at Silvan Moon Designs bring you Esmeralda. It has a wonderful care-free feel to it. While it’s a longer mesh, it’s flared up about calf-length, so it doesn’t pose the kind of problems that you often see in movement for a longer mesh dress. Esmeralda comes in six lovely colours, and is sized for Maitreya only.

The outfit features separate skirt and top, so you can mix-and-match. The beautiful boots are included, and totally complement the dress. I’m already thinking about other outfits that I can pair these with. I’ve added the beautiful bangles from @rOrO and a necklace and earrings from EarthStones. It must have been fate, for the Esmeralda hair and scarf from Fantavatar & Moonstruck [Oblivion] just matches perfectly, completing the look.

I… feel I’ve got to say one more bit here, though, because I love the jewelry from Earthstones and rOrO, but… we really should stop using the term ‘gypsy’. Yes, I know, there’s a lot of debate about this — many ethnic Roma say “please don’t use the word, it’s hurtful”, and others say that they don’t care. There’s a nice discussion of the term and its history and usage here. I think the long and the short of it to me is, why say it if it makes people feel bad? Political correctness isn’t a bad thing, it’s simply a different phrase that means “polite”.

So, you know, be kind. Let the word go.

Let’s close on a happy — we’re on location outside of Silvan Moon Designs. My favourite sim designer, Gidgy, decorated the sim beyond the store for Bee and Solace. Queensgarden lives on, in our hearts and all over the Grid!

I wish you all a wonderfully happy weekend. May you have peace and serenity, and stay healthy. Aloha kākou!

A hui hou kākou!
