Poseidon Poses

Tropical Punch

Aeon LotD

Happy Aloha Friday!  I’m so ready for something yummy with fruit in it to sip as the twinkling stars come out, as the breeze blows in from the ocean, to smell the blossoms in the air.  Tropical Punch from Nickki at Island Style Designs is just perfect for that evening out!

  • Island Style Designs — Tropical Punch gown (Belleza Freya & Isis & Venus/Maitreya/SLink Physique & Hourglass/Ebody/Ocacin/TMP/Tonic Fine & Curvy fitmesh, five standard rigged mesh sizes)
  • Island Style Designs — Real Plumeria Lei (rich delicate yellow pink)
  • Island Style Designs — Plumeria head piece
  • EarthStones — Mother & Child Turtles necklace and earrings
  • <K&S> — Loveliness #5 pose

 

The bright colours light up the darkest evening….

I really love how Nickki has put a bit of a sheen on this gown — it shimmers very nicely in darker lighting, and ripples just so under brighter lights.  The colours really come alive!

Happy Aloha Friday, but spare a thought, too, for the people of Puna and Leilani Estates as Tūtū Pele rumbles. There has been some amazing footage of the fissure eruption, and so far no one has been hurt, but Tūtū Pele is not to be trifled with!  You can find updates at Big Island Now.

Have a wonderful weekend, everyone!   Mahalo!  A hui hou!

The Black Widow

Aeon Fashion, LotD, Reviews

The theme of the weekend dance at Sisters of Eden this past Saturday was Heroes and Villains, and in honour of the new Avengers movie, I decided to come as one of my favourite characters — the beautiful Natasha Romanova, the Black Widow.  Fortunately for me, Xtra Ordinary had just the perfect outfit!

Black Widow comes with fitmesh jacket, corset, boots and combat belt, bento gloves and Maitreya and Omega appliers for the catsuit.

Decorative mesh pistols are also included that are initially configured to attach at the utility belt (holstered).  These guns are non-scripted decorations only, and do not include holsters.  Note that the vendor art depicts held pistols and holsters: these are not included, but are the Raven pistols from Breach, and can be found here.  For the above shot, I simply attached the right-hand pistol to my hand, and did a little editing to adjust the position just right.

I also found that I had to be careful on applying the catsuit layer on my Maitreya body: if I applied to the clothing layer, I’d have conflict (poke-through) between the catsuit and the corset.  Application to the underwear layer worked just right, however.

I’d been wanting a good Black Widow costume for quite a while: I’m so glad to have found Xtra Ordinary.  They have some incredible things at wonderful prices, a few of which I’ll share with you in the future.

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

 

Fantasy Faire 2018 — Spyralle’s Ageless Clock

Aeon Events, Gadgets, Reviews, Sponsored

One last treasure for the 2018 Fantasy Faire before it ends this weekend: the Ageless Clock from Spyralle.

As Kerryth writes:

This intriguing machine keeps time according to a system no longer known. An intricate gear mechanism turns, and at intervals a hidden bell sounds and an image takes form on the front of the object and then fades away. After a cycle of four bells and four different images, the cycle starts over again. Meanwhile, a light pulses. Is it a signal? Is it a message? No one knows.

The Ageless Clock is defaults to a large size and 7LI, but it’s resizable.  It shrinks down to a 4LI tabletop version seen below, perfectly at home on a mantlepiece or lost amidst the clutter of your laboratory.

Fantasy Faire is slipping into its final few days: the faire closes on Sunday, April 29.  If you haven’t been, you really owe it to yourself to visit — I don’t know how the creators build such a marvelous set of sims for only ten days.  And what should be foremost, it’s a wonderful opportunity to support Relay for Life and the American Cancer Society.

Please stop on by Spyralle at the Fantasy Faire, and support the cause!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

Oubliette and Petite Mort are hosting a hunt, and you’re invited!  The beautiful Witchwood sim features the 10L Enchanted Spring Treasure Hunt for the month of April, and there are 10 beautiful goodies scattered around the grounds and two more for the group members hiding in the Oubliette and Petite Mort stores!  My favourite finds are the gorgeous Moon Child tank and the very starry Velvet Skirt!

  • Oubliette  — Moon Child tank ( Maitreya/Physique/Hourglass/Venus/Isis/Freya), hunt gift for the April 2018 Enchanted Spring hunt at Witchwood
  • Oubliette  — Velvet Skirt (Maitreya/Physique/Hourglass/Venus/Isis/Freya), hunt gift for the April 2018 Enchanted Spring hunt at Witchwood
  • EarthStones —   Bewitching earrings
  • EarthStones —   Signature Stones bracelet
  • !!smesh — Star choker and ankle bracelets
  • an lar [poses] — The Assemble Series — Ten pose

So I’ve been really excited about a new hair find.  I’ve heard a bit of feedback from some of the places that I blog for (and some that I used to blog for) that my flexi hair is sooooo years-ago — that it’s so dated.  It’s a bit frustrating, as finding curly hair in all-mesh is very difficult.  It’s true that taking good pics of flexi hair is a challenge due to lighting and focusing issues, but it’s hard to pretend to be straight when you’re not!

So that said, I was very excited to find Athena at Truth Hair.  It’s a very close match for my go-to in-world hair, Analog Dog’s Annie.  Athena a VIP gift from Truth, so you’ll have to join the group to purchase it, but it’s quite the find.  It features a styling hud that allows you to add/remove whispeys (or as my friend’s daughter calls them, “Einsteins”).   You can even braid back the right-hand side… which is just right for an asymmetric statement.  🙂

The hunt isn’t too difficult, although knowledge of the sim will help — and the goodies are well worth the 100L that you’ll spend in acquiring them!  Stop by Witchwood and explore the beautiful sim that Melora and her crew have put together.

Mahalo!  A hui hou!

Lost in Space

Aeon Fashion, LotD, Reviews

Blue’s been showing a number of free gifties from Canimal lately, so I thought I’d better get my favourite one in!  Mercury is a beautiful two-piece Maitreya Lara fitmesh outfit that comes complete with a lovely 15-texture HUD.  

The top is really adorable with the belly tie and a cute little peter-pan collar and cuffs. But…. are you really *sure* this is going to put my atoms all back in the right order on the other side?

I don’t usually talk about the poses I feature, but that top one (Flight 15) is from a lovely new pose shop that I recently discovered.  Poseidon Poses features a lot of action poses, particularly action-hero and fantasy poses.  They’re really quite remarkably done, you’ll see some more of their work from me in the future.

Canimal has a lovely wall of free gifties, so stop on by and take a look!

Mahalo!  A hui hou!
