Bewitched by Victoria

Mesh Avenue opens today with a steampunk theme and Dead Dollz has explored the sexier, more daring side of this theme with the newly created and  stunning 'Victoria' lingerie set for this event! It's designed for Maitreya Lara mesh body and includes fitted mesh bra and panties, with optional lace underwear appliers. 

I fell in love with it instantly and jumped into the IM box of the beautiful Duchess Flux to see if she'd like to join the kitties and I for a photoshoot!

There are 6 colours to choose from - the black and white versions that Duchess and I are wearing, plus blue, brown, pink and antique.

The kitties btw, are from the 'Bastet' gacha by Pixicat at The Arcade and how beautiful are they?! There are 4 different posed kitties to collect plus a bunch of other pretty things in the gacha machine. The sphynx cats have a colour HUD to change between black, white and patch. 

Glam Affair has just released some new skin appliers for Lelutka Undivided mesh heads in mainstore and I adore the sultry look of 'Mavi'. Available in a whole range of skin tones, each applier pack also includes 8 make up options for eyes and 8 for lips in addition to the 'clean' skin. For those of you who love the less common Glam Affair tones including petal, exotic, tropic and africa, you'll be very pleased to know that this gorgeous new skin applier does come in these tones!

If you haven't made it into Collabor88 this month, keep trying! There are some awesome pretties up for grabs including these gorgeous cuffs by *katat0nik*. I've been waiting for ages for something like this (especially that is compatible with Maitreya hands as well as SLink) so I jumped on them straight away. There are 2 packs available, mono and colour laces.

The sexy over the knee boots by CandyDoll can also be found at September's Collabor88 and are available in a range of colours. Standard sizes are includes as well as sizes for Maitreya, SLink, Belleza Isis & Belleza Freya mesh bodies.

My hair today is by D!va. It's non-rigged and includes a flower accessory that can be turned on/off or colour-changed via HUD menu.

Hope you all like the lotd and the pic! See HQ version on my Flickr.

The Sea Witch

If you haven't checked out Enchantment yet, you have only until the 5th Sept to check out the best mermaid inspired goodies available under our Second Life sea!

Lumae has brought a special mermaid inspired skin to this round of Enchantment. Adore Lanthe comes in 5 different make-up options for 100L each. The bodies are scaled like a mermaid and the face gives the option of scales or not. There are lots of appliers, including Maitreya, Belleza, Omega and TMP. Not forgetting mesh head appliers either, you can wear this with Genesis, Lelutka and Eve too! There are 3 different cleavage options included.
See the Ad for it here for a look with the face scales on Lelutka head.
Lumae is also taking part in the Enchantment hunt with another skin as the prize. See the pic here and go hunting for the purple shell here!

[Entwined] has created a new sleek and sexy long straight hairstyle that goes back over the shoulders, making it perfect for wearing jewellery like this beautiful mermaid necklace by Bliensen + MaiTai. All the usual colour packs are available for this style (including fantasy colours!) and the necklace comes in black or white options.

The Plastik has gone all out for this round of Enchantment and you can literally kit yourself out from head to fins with their pretties. One of which is this stunningly detailed 'Ursula' headpiece. There are 3 different versions, I'm showing the full, and each is so so customisable by the included HUDs. You can literally change the colours of all the parts individually making what must be hundreds of different combinations for wearing this. The pack includes both materials and non-materials versions. 
My top and tail are also by the Plastik and there are a ton of different colour options for this. The packs include standard and 'wet' options. And guess what guys? Yes there is merman versions too so you don't get left out :P

Ursula seems to have inspired a few of our fave SL designers at this event, as it's also the name for the pretty head jewellery by Charm and the theme for these fab tentacle bangles by Dead Dollz!

The flippin' coin is from the gacha by Bro, Brah, Bruh (BBB)
These coins are super cool and besides using them as fun pic props, they are actually animated too! You can flip them at will, randomly or as your typing animation. There are loads of different versions to collect and I'm showing one of the rares.

Hope you like the pic and lotd!

Sailor's Warning

Red sky in the morning, Sailors Warning!

OMG! Just one more day until the new round of Enchantment opens and there is so much pretty fantasy stuff swimming round I don't know what to do next! The Little Mermaid is the theme, from the Disney version to the tales of old. Today I've based my look on the idea of the mermaids of old English folklore, who were responsible for causing stormy seas and luring sailors to their destruction (for the record, no sailors were harmed in the making of this feature!)

Azoury had created some amazing tentacled headpieces for the event. There are 3 colours available and what a shock, I'm wearing the black :P

The texture work is fab as always by Azoury and these really are gorgeous pieces.

Up until yesterday, I have to admit I was a mer-tail virgin, but I've finally dived in with this beautiful tail by JUMO. There are mens and womens versions available in a bunch of colours and each comes with 3 different tail fin options, plus mermaid AO.

The tail came with bra too but I've decided to team it up with the scales bra that .aisling. has created for the event. It's not rigged and the left/right parts are separate. Again there is a bunch of colours available and I love how this could be used for some really different looks, I think it could be a new fave piece!

Finishing off the look today I'm wearing the new eye makeup mask by ARISE. Again, there are multiple colours for this mask and not only does it come in standard tattoo layers, there are appliers for Lelutka, Eve and Genesis Lab mesh heads!

I'll post the LM when the event opens tomorrow, 'till then I'm just gonna tease you with the pic!
