La Fée Verte

Ruina Kessel of .{Rue}. has created an awe inspiring new line of skins that truly are works of art.  If you’ve ever lamented the lack of fantasy skins in SL, fret no more because Ruina has you more than covered.  She made a billion colors (60 to be exact), of which you are certain to spend hours agonizing over which one to wear.  And she even named a skintone after me that made me squeee with fangirlish delight. <3  In the pic I’m showing off the Damu skintone that looks beyond brilliant with this lovely little ensemble from Evie’s Closet.

Revenants of Fire and Ice

The new coats and pants from [][]TRAP[][] are made of pure win.  Actually everything made by Selos Dae is made of pure win.  In other news, Ruina Kessel continues to indulge my horn fetish with amazing new horn styles and ellantha Larsson updated my most favorite piercing ever.  <3

I should mention that this snapshot took an obscene amount of time to make between disappearing sculpties, my being stupid and SL being an ass.  But here it is, I hope it does the content justice.

Delight me

Oh hai, remember me?  I’ve been popping into SL a bit more lately and it’s all because people keep creating awesome stuff!  .{Rue}. has lovely makeup tattoo layers and fabulous new horns in delicious new textures out!  {Terho} (formerly Lazy Places) has a whole slew of fantastic new footwear including these sexy tentacled heels that are color change and amazing.  Now go forth and spend golds.

Closing Time

I closed my little shop in SL today and I guess I’m taking it a bit harder than I had anticipated, in fact I’m a little heartbroken.  I really didn’t think I’d get so emotional over it until I was pulling everything down and staring at an empty shop.  That little shop was pretty much the main thing that kept me in SL and without it I’m feeling quite empty.  So I’m going to take a hiatus from blogging.  I really wanted to finish the 52 Weeks of Color Challenge but I just don’t have it in me to do it right now.  Maybe I’ll pick it back up later.  I just don’t have any desire to be in SL right now.

If you want to keep up with me, I post random, non SL related total crap pretty regularly on my tumblr.  The link is to the right.

Three Oranges

Today I’m wearing orange to bid a fond blogging farewell to my favorite SL fashion blogger extraordinaire, Achariya.  Her blog has been a source of inspiration for me since I came across it soon after starting to play SL in late ’07.  I’d like to credit her with my staying in SL because her blog showed how much more SL had to offer besides the skank look I’d mostly been finding up to that point.  Acha has such an adventurous sense of style that I couldn’t help but fall in love with.   Thank you for sharing your SL with the world Acha and best, best wishes to your future blogging endeavors!! <333

52 Weeks of Color – Week 18-19

Week 18 & 19 of Luna Jubilee’s 52 Weeks of Color Blogger Challenge are Ecru and Umber.

Dragon Age 2 is out and that means I’m once again afflicted with fangirl obsession syndrome which means each and every free second I have I’ve spent playing, modding and gabbing about it. It is such a good game I can’t even begin to start to tell you how amazing it is. It’s my excuse for smooshing two colors into one week again. I’m not a huge earth tones person so these two colors were really difficult for me. But, this dress from Silent Sparrow has them both so yay!

52 Weeks of Color – Week 17

Week 17 of Luna Jubilee’s 52 Weeks of Color Blogger Challenge is Electric Lime.
Er, this was a tough color to do considering I’ve never exactly heard of it before.  I ended up going with something I made which is probably unforgivably tacky so I promise not to do it very often.

52 Weeks of Color – Week 16

Week 16 of Luna Jubilee’s 52 Weeks of Color Blogger Challenge is Teal.
I admit it, I love impractical fantasy ‘armor’.  Chain mail bikinis, ridiculously revealing mage robes, skin tight rogue leathers, all of it.  I’m of the notion that various magical enchantments are really what’s protecting my character.  Not that I don’t think being clad in a full set of plate armor isn’t also totally sexy, because it so is, but I do have a weakness for skimpy armors.  There, I said it, I feel better.
