R2 Fashion A/D/E

In the shadow of Karnak

Aloha kākou! This is one of those outfits/costumes/looks that sprang to mind almost instantly when I first saw the Damned tattoo set from Fallen Gods. I already had the beautiful Pure skin in the Abyssia colour scheme, a perfect beautiful blue. When the two came together, it was the most magical gold-detailed lapis… and lapis is one of my two favourite precious stones.

The rest came together in bits and pieces. A waist wrap from Meli Imako, a top from r2 A/D/E. A beautiful scarab necklace from Spyralle. And, of course, the beautiful sim at Terra Egypta provided the best setting I could imagine.

This is the second time I’ve tried shooting this skin/tattoo — the first time I was not happy with the results, a creative vision that was not quite right. I’ve changed the clothing, jewelry, all much for the better.

And for all that… I’m still not quite satisfied. I’ll have to play with this some more, but for the time being, I’m pretty pleased.

Through a disaster of record keeping, I managed to lose my pose and windlight information. I’m still hoping to find the list, and will edit this post if/when I do!

Aloha, my friends. I’ll be back more as soon as I can be!

Nebula Rave

Aeon LotD

Blue hosted her weekly set (Fridays at 15:00-17:00  SLT) at Sisters of Eden yesterday, and the theme was Rave in a Cave — and I threw a few pieces together…. and was the shiniest — and most complex — dancer on the floor.  Too good to pass up, I had to share it with you!

I’ve mixed and matched a few pieces here!  Skin and neon paint body tattoo are from Fallen Gods — the Lumina (Eclipse) skin combined with the HOLI Phalgun Purnima tattoo.

The dress is a daring little number from r2 A/D/E: the Shou (liquid purple) minidress.  There are boots, too, but I felt best shoeless for this party.

Perhaps the most amazing part of this outfit is the Starry Nebula (Half Spectrum Dark) from Tai’Dyed.  It’s this wonderful collection of mostly translucent flexis with embedded stars in different colours.  There are a TONNE of pieces to choose from that attach to different points on your body.  You can’t wear them all, you only get 38 attachments total!  And your complexity will be astronomical — I think I was north of 400,000.  But OMG it’s so much fun and so swirly!  You can’t really get a good feel for this without a video.

We lost Tai this past fall unexpectedly, but her shop is still open at the Spyralle sim at Mauna Waipio.  There’s a wonderful little memorial to Tai there as well, please stop by and pay your respects.

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend, my friends!  Be a source of light and colour to those around you… and most especially to yourself!

Aloha!  A hui hou kākou!

Aloha kākou!  Happy Friday, everyone!  I was thinking about going out dancing tonight, so I thought I’d share a wonderful little outfit and skin with you!  The outfit is a little mix-and-match from R2 Fashion A/D/E, and the Psy skin is from Fallen Gods.

  • <K&S> — Loveliness #3 pose

I’m always amazed at what the creators in SL can do with textures and materials these days.  The shine on the R2 outfits is incredible — from the metallic sheen to the gloss on the transparent bits.

  • Stardust — Summer Breeze 05 Bento Pose

I really love the Psy series of skins that Alia at Fallen Gods has created.  The electricity/plasma/lightning-y patterns on the dark skin really lend themselves to my creativity.

  • Stardust — Summer Breeze 03 Bento Pose

Sometimes you just need to dress how you feel…. and sometimes you need to feel how you dress.  So, you know — it’s Friday… time to feel sparkly.

Have a wonderfully happy weekend, my friends!  A hui hou kākou!

Shining

Aloha, my fine friends!  I like to do something a bit risqué or otherwise fun on the weekends, so let me show you one of my favourites for special occasions.  R2 Fashion A/D/E is the place to go to for your transparent latex fashion needs!  I know Jaz has shown some to you, and I have shown some in the past as well.  This is Baika, and it comes in three separate pieces (jacket, bra & panty set, and boots).  There are six different colours, so you can mix and match if you like, or go thematic.  I really loved the gold!

  • R2 Fashion A/D/E — Baika Jacket, Bra & Panty set, and boots (sold as three separate pieces) (Maitreya only) (6 colours
  • Evelock — Celtic Sheaf Fire Opal Necklace & Earings
  • Elven Isles — Golden wings earcuffs
  • *Eternal Dream* — Winter Spirit 02 pose

I don’t know how R2 does it, but they have gotten the materials down to a science.  The gloss on the transparent bits as well as the shine on the metallic ones are exquisite.  It’s hard to imagine how they could be improved upon.

The one drawback, perhaps, is that R2 works in Maitreya fitmesh only.  If you’re a Maitreya user, then you’re in luck!  If not… I fear not so much.  As most of R2’s items have significant transparent features, use of alpha zones is not really an option.

If you are a Maitreya wearer, you owe it to yourself to stop by R2 Fashion A/D/E and take a look around.  You’re sure to find something tantalising!

Mahalo!  A hui hou kākou!
