A Midsummer Night

Leave a reply

MDR Photo Studio had their first party under the new management of Arcadia Nightfire and Rhodesy Durant and it was a hit. There were so many people there and folks had a great time. It was the second MDR Midsummer Night party and most folks dressed in fairy costumes. Even Gidge’s husband Silo found wings for his robot avatar that were perfect. I headed to the Fantasy Faire figuring why not support RFL while looking for my costume.  Fancy Fairy was perfect and that’s where I found this lovely dress and wings.

Sex With Prims

Leave a reply

Now that I caught your attention, I am referring to the sex with prims Wild Orchid hairstyle from Exile that you can get in the store while waiting for room to enter Hair Fair. Whilst waiting for SL to decide that I can log in, I thought I might share this delightful hair style and truly, what is more sexy that some disarray.

Perfect Harmony

1 Reply

When I went to Nomine last week, I was blown away by the clothing, but nothing struck me so much as this dress called Mira. It is as sexy as they come with the outrageously low back, the sheer bodice made wearable only by stripes of sequins and the form-fitting lushness of it it. To match it for wild romanticism, I wore the Akili hair from Damselfly. I shot several photos of this outfit for my Hair Fair Contest entries because of that wild extravagance.

Are the stars out tonight?

The clothing from Prelude is always elegant and carefully executed. Estelle, this new dress, however, exceeds all my already high expectations.

Are the stars out tonight?
I dont know if its cloudy or bright
cause I only have eyes for you, dear
The moon may be high
But I cant see a thing in the sky
cause I only have eyes for you.

Has Digit Darkes Lost Her Mind?

3 Replies

Well, no she hasn’t, but you might if you try to figure out exactly how many combinations of jewels and dresses you can get out of her new Delhi dress.  I didn’t even mess with the jewel color which has a treasure trove of jewel options and only fiddled with the texture change skirt simply because that is such a new innovation and look what happened.

I was cloned!!!  These are the possible shirt texture options on the texture-changing skirt in the Delhi dress – the mustard version. Incidentally, shouldn’t it be called Curry Yellow instead of Mustard Yellow – just because.I am wearing Baiastice’s Querelle shoes in Gold. Digit makes a matching pair of shoes that has matching color change gems, but you know, you give me that many choices and I will be paralyzed by choice.

Night & Day:::Nyte'N'Day

2 Replies

Raise your hands if you have at least one outfit from Nyte’N’Day? Wow, almost everyone. That’s kind of what I thought. Me, too. I have several outfits from there including the very first purchase I made in Second Life, the Nyte’N’Day Rainment skirt in black.  Dove Swanson of Long Awkward Pose (whose poses I am using in this post) wondered yesterday if its possible that because so many of us identify Nyte’N’Day with our noobish era, that we fail to recognize how current and good the designs are. I think there’s some truth to that.

But that’s cutting us off from some great design because Nyte Caligari has not been just sitting there making the same old thing. Her clothes have evolved and her skills have advanced and her clothes are as exciting as anyone. Take this jacket for example – beautifully made, chic and smart as she linked the collar and belt so that they only take one attachment point. Sure you have to edit the separately to fit your particular torso length – but we all can do that. Continue reading →

B&W, Braids & the Hottest Shoes Evah!!!

3 Replies

I recently found a couple of darling black and white dresses, both heavily influenced by vintage styles, both from relatively under-blogged stores and oddly enough, I wore my hair in braids with both of them, though totally by accident. What was not an accident was my choice of shoes – the hottest shoes ever, ever, evah! But first, here’s a lovely black and white pop print from Lost Dreams with the useful and descriptive name Retro Dress.

This dress also has a pop print though the shape is a good decade older. It’s name is Delana Kisses, an unhelpful name unles you think those teardrop shapes remind you of Hershey’s Kisses or something. This is from ROC.

Oleanna

1 Reply

Now, this dress is as far in spirit from the white Odelia dress in my last post as the Norwegian song I will share in this post is from Tryggare kan ingen vara. This is a hot, sultry dress promising the the world  just as the old Norwegian song Oleanna promised the emigrants who left for America. It’s the Norwegian version of the Big Rock Candy Mountain – in spirit. And this dress is as rich in promise.

This time the English and Norwegian versions are done together.

Tryggare kan ingen vara

As many of you have already learned, Neferia Abel is leaving Second Life for several months while  she moves, fulfills her dream of illustrating a children’s book and recovers her health.  An ambitious set of goals and I am sure each and every one of us wish her success in every one and hope for her speedy return. Like many others, I will share a couple favorites today, but first I want to share a  lovely song that suits this heavenly dress and will most likely be familiar to Neferia since there is so much cross-cultural sharing between Norwegians and Swedes. It was my father’s favorite hymn. He was Swedish and it was sung at his funeral – and to perfectly frank, at every funeral on that side of the family. Sometimes I think it’s the only Swedish song everyone still remembers besides Oleanna and Nikolina (believe me they are NOT funeral appropriate.)
