These Hands

So I've gone and done a 180 from my last pic.. it was maybe a little too bright and light and springlike for me, so I've turned back over to the darkside today to balance out!
Azoury has a new release available in store and on sl marketplace. The 'Churel Cross' is beautiful ornamental jewel-encrusted accessory that hangs over the face from a delicate chain. It's non-rigged mesh and has a resizer included.

These fabulous new claws are by He La and will be an exclusive for the Black Fashion Fair, which starts on April 17th. They come in 3 colours - Black, silver and gold - and each has a hud to change the nail and pearl colours. The claws come pre-positioned for SLink casual hands but each individual claw can be moved separately to adjust for other hands.

And I have to say, I'm loving the new 'pretty reckless' hairstyle by Tableau Vivant at Collabor88. This style comes in both the 11 standard colour huds and the 3 frizzy chic huds too, all of which are available at a discounted price for the duration of the event.

A Springtime Story

So I settled down for come cute bunny time yesterday and the gorgeous and talented Kynne Llewellyn came and joined me for a pic. Unfortunately Second Life or my viewer or something decided to hate on me and I didn't manage to catch a shot of the two of us but you can see her amazing work here.
So with that said I settled down for a bit more bunny time today (there can never be too much bunny time!)

For photographers and bloggers (and anyone else who enjoys some good poses) you'll be pleased to know the Pose Fair 2015 is now open!! There are over 90 fabulous pose creators taking place in this event and each has brought multiples of new creations for you to ogle and purchase ;)
The pose I'm using today is by Project Puppet and is included in their Bombshell pack 3. These poses are awesome for vintage, retro, pin-up style pics but are really cute for other pics too!
Also it gave me the perfect opportunity to show off this fabulously pretty dress by Enfant Terrible, available at the recently opened Season's Story event. There is a matching headband available too and each come in 4 different pleasant pastel shades to choose from. The dress comes in 5 standard sizes but the decorative breast plate is unrigged mesh so you can fit that to your avi as you like =)

My hair today is by Truth and can be found in the mainstore. This style includes 2 versions in the pack (coming forward over shoulders or just down the back). I love styles that have a little extra volume for doing certain looks and this also has some lovely braiding across the top, making it ideal for fashionista and roleplay looks alike.

Bridge to Nowhere

As soon as I saw this gown by The Annex, available at the April round of We Love Roleplay, I fell in love with it. It's a stunning design and I love the way it hangs/fits around the body. The dress gave me this dreamy/surreal pic idea which was enforced more so as soon as I saw the offering by Tableau Vivant for this round of the event. This very long hairstyle is so pretty with its braided sections and add on butterflies! There are 3 versions included - with bangs, with bangs/low and without the bangs. The style is available in the 3 'frizzy chic' colour HUD packs.
The bridge I'm standing on is by 22769 ~ [bauwerk] and is another creation, perfect to add to various landscapes or for setting a scene!

As always, check my Flickr for HQ pic

Let this not be the last dance

One of my favourite times of year is nearly upon us - Pose Fair 2015 brought to us by The Hottie Cooterati Experience. The Fair opens on April 11th at 12pm and offers brand new creations by more than 90 of the best pose makers on the grid!
The pose I've used today is by HopScotch and is included in their Dancing Blades I set, which contains 6 poses in total. The blades are included and already positioned for the pose, saving lots of time and troubles for you! This set is great for dramatic roleplay and fantasy type shots.

And whilst we are on the subject of roleplay, a new round of We Love Roleplay commenced this weekend. The awesome ensemble I'm wearing is by Una and is available in 3 different metal colours. It consists of the collar, bra/chestpiece, tiara, belt and bottom piece. All pieces are resizeable. Snag each colour set at 25% off during the event, making it only 125L!

Also I have a sneak peek at these gorgeous new decorative ear muffs by Azoury, which will be available in both black and white. As always with anything by Azoury, the detail on these is stunning and they make pretty finishing touches to all sorts of looks.

My pic shows the rust version but there is also black, gold and old metal to change between. In addition, .aisling. has also created some new candle sets for the event. There are 6 different shapes and available in 12 different colours! You'll be able to purchase both the chandeliers and the candles at 200L for the duration of the event before they go to the regular price of 275L. And the really great part? All are only 1Li!

The Darkroom

The Xiasumi School Festival opened today and {anc} has another spectacular gacha for this event!
Based in the photography club section of this school themed event, {anc} presents the 'Darkroom' gacha with 9 stunning pieces to collect - 7 commons and 2 rares. Alas I was not lucky enough to get my hands on the beautiful rare pieces, but the commons are awesome too!! I've resized the pieces for the pic, so careful if doing this as land impact increases from advertised size. Even so though, the LI didn't go through the roof!

The hair dolly is wearing is new by Truth in the mainstore. This casual and loosely pinned back style falls forward over the shoulders, so is great for wearing with wings or when you want to show the back of a dress, tattoo etc!


Hair - Truth - Effie *NEW*
Headband - .random.Matter. - Valeria Flower Crown - Black

Pose by Grafica - "Perch" (right leg adjusted slightly using Animare)

Props by {anc} - "Darkroom" - film, tray.camellia, photo paper (all commons) *Xiasumi School Festival*

Your Senses Assaulted From Every Possible Direction

Truth has new hair out... well lots actually and there will be plenty more to come in the next few posts! Today's style is called 'Fynn' and I love this cute and sexy bob. There are 2 versions included - with and without the headband. The pack also includes both rigged and non-rigged versions too. You'll find it in the Truth mainstore.

Zibska has some new lingerie appliers which can be found in the mainstore. There are 3 designs to choose from, each available in 6 different colours, and I'm wearing 
They all contain appliers for Maitreya, Belleza, TMP and standard avatar.

The headdress and butterfly decor can be found at Shiny Shabby and is by LODE. This is the original version and there is also a white version available too. 

Maitreya has also released an updated version of the Lara mesh body. V3.0 means you now get more alpha section options and also save slots for both alpha and applier layers. In addition, the shoulders have been made smoother, the long length nails made longer and the minimized state of the HUD made much smaller. Also materials have been enabled with adjustable levels of shine.
