Ginevra

Lootbox is back for another round of gacha goodness! 
Astralia are taking part with the lovely new 'Ginevra' set for Maitreya Lara mesh body, perfect for any naughty angels out there ;)

The 'Ginevra' Rare Lootbox contains bento animated wings, stocking appliers and chest heart adornments (all with HUDs to match all the common item colours). The commons include bra, corset, panties and garters in 3 colours - red, pink and sky blue.

The shoes are by Azoury and called 'Ezekiel'. They can be found in 6 different colours at The Liaison Collaborative. 

Totally in love with the fun, curled 'Presley Hair' by Olive at the current round of The Arcade. The fatpack of the hair is the rare item with a whole bunch of hair accessory commons to collect!

follow the yellow brick road....

A new round of Enchantment opens this weekend....

It's time to follow the yellow brick road because we've all gone to Oz!

There are lots (and lots) of wonderful Second Life creators taking part in this event, with many adorable, wicked and beautiful creations in the theme of 'The  Wizard of Oz'. I love this cute Dorothy-styled dress by *COCO*. There are versions for SLink and Maitreya mesh bodies, the *COCO* FashionDoll, MyDollKit Fitted doll and new Kid doll. 

This new hair-style by TUKINOWAGUMA really helped in creating my Dolly Dorothy look and I set her off following the yellow brick road made by FDD Stories! There are different types of road sections included in the pack to get the layout you need. 

Event opens 12 Noon 13th August!

Dress: *COCO* - Puff Sleeve Dress *Enchantment*

Hair: TUKINOWAGUMA *TKW* - Dorothy *Enchantment*

Basket: =Zenith= - Spring Picnic Basket

Puppy: Jian - Countryside Collies - Held Pup Tri

Dreamy Doll

I've always been a huge fan of the doll avatars by *COCO* so I couldn't wait to check out their newest release. I love love LOVE it!! Finally a fitted mesh doll body! 

I've tried it with several fitted mesh dresses that are designed for Maitreya Lara and had no issues with the fit, no poking out through arms or back etc. It's awesome. I did try a few tops and shorts and these are a little more tricky, so bare in mind not everything will work but this doll body certainly allows for more flexibility when it comes to dressing in 'normal' clothes. As for the fashion doll range by *COCO*, designed for the standard *COCO* fashion doll body, not all will work with this one but the ones that will are indicated on the vendors.

*COCO* has also released 2 new doll heads. I fell in love with Nora instantly. I think she has a slightly alien look to her features, which personally I find cute. The great thing about these new heads (for me anyway) is that they have a closed eye feature again, which the other heads in the fashion doll range have been missing. Even better, there are eyelashes included for both open and closed eye versions. Eyes are separate attachment from the head and 2 colours are included in the pack.

The body (900L$) is modifiable and the new heads are available in both mod (900L$) and no mod (450L$) versions. Texture maps are included with MyDollKit mod body & heads.

One of the first dresses I tried on the body was the new 'Spring Dreamy' dress by =Zenith=, available at The Project Se7en. There are 4 packs available, each including 2 versions of the dress changeable by HUD. The cute bunny toy is also by =Zenith= at the same event and includes colour HUD to match to any of the dreamy dresses.

Danaus Spring

Astralia has created the beautiful 'Danaus Spring' gacha collection for the new round of The Fantasy Collective. There are floral crowns in 5 colours to collect, as well as matching mouth flowers, all decorated with beautiful butterflies. The rare to play for is the cloak, which includes colour HUD to match to your common items and allows the cloak and butterfly colour to be changed separately. 

The sceptre is a special gift rather than a random prize, that will be given after 20 pulls of the gacha machine. This also comes with colour HUD. 

Dead Dollz has a cute and sassy new lingerie collection available at Shiny Shabby. Available exclusively for Maitreya Lara mesh body, there are 8 different colour versions of 'Imogen' to choose from. 

Oh, and you'll find these lovely new weeping willows by The Little Branch at Shiny Shabby too! Perfect for spring and full of detail, it also comes with season change menu plus completely resizeable to fit to your scene, garden or landscape.

You Let The Flames Get Higher

OK, so this ended up being a bit of a cross between the gladiator stylings that are currently available at this round of The Secret Affair and an Arabian nights theme, but I hope you like the pic!

The outfit is by !deviousMind and is available in a few different colour versions. Each includes both sheer and opaque versions, as well as including tops to fit Maitreya and Belleza mesh body shapes in addition to the standard avatar. There are 2 versions of the skirt, with the belt as shown and also without.

The cushion seating can be found at The Secret Affair too. It's by [ zerkalo ] and there are 2 colours - reds and sands. They are part of the 'dance pit & sits set'. Dance pit not shown but has a very cool bunch of themed dance animation in it!

The other [ zerkalo ] pieces are in their mainstore.

Oh, and I can't get enough of this latest hairstyle by Entwined, which you'll currently find at Shiny Shabby!

Live By the Sword

Another post from me featuring more of the fab items at July's round of The Secret Affair!

I'm gonna jump straight into talking about the scenery because these palm trees by The Little Branch are so awesome. Really realistic looking, with great textures, and there are 3 versions included - a single tree and two doubles.

The eagle is actually a pose prop but I just rezzed it out today. 

My outfit is also from this month's TSA. I'm showing off the rare and ultra rare items in the gacha machine by FDD stories, as well as hair accessory from Azoury.

For the gacha lover in you, don't forget to head over to the Epiphany too, where I picked up this headchain by Kibitz as part of their 'Alicia' set.

Hope you like the lotd and the pic!
