Faery Chic

I decided I was in the mood for a modern faery style today and some of the latest event releases provided the perfect items!
This sexy and stylish suit is by Dead Dollz and is available exclusively for Maitreya Lara mesh body, in 4 colours at the current round of The Fantasy Collective.
The mushroom clusters by 22769 ~ [bauwerk] can also be found at this event. They provide great fantasy decor as well as nice seating areas, as they include a bunch of animated pose sits (I'm using a pose from Del May though!).

[Entwined] is baaack! And has released 3 - yes 3 - brand new hairstyles at Shiny Shabby. The style in this pic is called 'Chic' and I thought was effortlessly elegant for our chic faery!

N21 will be ongoing until 11th Feb and it's where you find these snazzy purses by The Plastik. Both clutch versions and strap versions are included, along with a HUD for the embellishments. Also, it's available in loads of colours so you'll def find one to match whatever you need it to match with.

The trees have different colour options and you can control the 'flicker' of the holograph. The multi-coloured paving comes with different shaped and sized sections to create the walkway that you need.

The Hunter

.aisling. have released a stunning new leather corset this week, perfect for SL roleplayers and fantasy lovers! This belted underbust corset comes complete with a colour HUD including 9 colours for the main corset, 9 for the belt, 6 for the laces and 3 metal options. There are standard sizes included, as well as fitted sizes for SLink physique and hourglass. However, I'm wearing the physique size with my Maitreya body and it fits just fine with the right alpha sections taken out.
.aisling. is also taking part in January's The Secret Affair and one of their releases for the event is these awesome leather gloves, which I think match perfectly with the new corset! Rigged and unrigged versions are included and these also include a colour HUD. 

I hope everyone's had a kickass weekend and that you like my Witch-Hunter/Vampire Hunter LOTD!

Sparks Flying in the Wind

Glam Affair has released some beautiful new skin appliers for Lelutka Undivided mesh heads and you'll find 'Kat' at the latest round of Shiny Shabby. I love the lips of this skin, along with the bold brows. I'm also in love with the features in the texturing of Kat. There is a very realistic skin sheen on the actual texture, so even without advanced lighting showing the shimmer on the mesh head you have a very nice finish, and detailed lines around the eyes. Also, each skin tone comes with 8 lip gloss options and 8 eye make-up options (shown below with clean lips and one of the included eye make-ups).

The Secret Affair is in full swing so make sure you head on over to grab you fill of winter roleplay and fantasy supplies! These animated stars by E.V.E come in a variety of colours, with 2 versions, and add a very space-like, fantasy and surreal feeling to any space.
The horns are by Zibska and include both the smaller and larger horns, which can be worn separately from each other. A colour HUD is included with lots of different options and the ability to change the colours for the main and accent sections independently of each other. 

Wayward winter has started and Astralia has created these gorgeous flower headdresses for the occasion. Available in 5 different versions, each is very detailed and contains colours that compliment each other perfectly.

The commons include headpiece, necklace, earrings and bracelets - each in the 3 metal versions (only 1 version of necklace) and each version coming with a HUD to change between 6 colours for the parts.

The Meeting Place

So, I don't usually do greenscreen pics but I fancied having a play around and trying to learn some new things as a little bit of a change. About 2 mins into editing this, I remember why I don't do greenscreen pics. I'd totally lost patience with trying to get bits of green out of my hair lol. Within about another 30 secs I'd totally erased my luscious long Tableau Vivant locks and had to draw in my own hair instead (hair drawing not my strong point, obviously >.<). 
Anyway, still have a lot to learn with this kinda pic and not totally chuffed with the result but here we go!

One thing I do love though, is the fabulous new shoes by Azoury. Seriously, no one does heels like Azoury does heels and these are amazingly gorgeous!
Loola is available in 5 colours, each with black corset lacing right up the front to the tie bow. Details in the textures are just wow XD
Made to fit Maitreya, Belleza, Slink and Eve. You'll be able to grab a pair or two at Cosmopolitan starting 17th Jan for 369L each.

The sexy harness bodysuit is a 2 piece outfit by Dead Dollz at the current round of Romp. Several colours available, each with gold or silver stud options. This is exclusively designed to fit Maitreya Lara mesh body perfectly!

Roots

Happy new year everyone!
Hope you all have had awesome holidays and stuff. Back to business and more time in SL again, I went exploring the new 'Roots' sim by Cica Ghost. It's an enchanting sim and well worth visiting! I took a few raw shots from around the sim whilst I was there too, which I've included below =)

The outfit is by Storybook at the current round of Shiny Shabby. It consists of a cosy, comfy cropped sweater and a full length rustic-looking skirt with attached tie-string belt. There are various colours available, but staying true to form I went for 'Blackberry'. The outfit comes with fits for Maitreya Lara and SLink Physique.

Pose Lovers will be loving the Pose Lover event, which opened today. Grafica is taking part with two new sets of 5 poses, each with mirrors.

The more you want to feel free, The deeper your roots need to be

Outfit (skirt and top): Storybook - Watercolours - Blackberry *Shiny Shabby*
Mesh Head: GenesisLab - Tara (mystery rare)
Mesh Body: Maitreya Lara
Hair (edited for pic): Exile - You Send Me
Septum Piercing: CerberusXing - Filigree
