La Parca

TGIF!! :D

And I'm celebrating the end of the week with this fearless tribal look courtesy of the May's Soul 'La Parca' items from The Epiphany Gacha event. It's certainly a different take on most common ideas of the grim reaper! Maybe the idea is to tempt lost souls to an early grave... They certainly are fun accessories to play around with and create all types of stories! But for today, just collecting the bones of those who stray a little too far...

 You have until Aug 4th to get over to The Epiphany to play the gacha machines and redeem your points for the exclusive prizes. Not sure what that's all about? Check it out here.

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!

Ellaria

Take a look at the gorgeous new gown by Dead Dollz, available at the new round of The Fantasy Collective. This stunning dress is available in 3 colours, each including 2 versions - with sheer top or opaque top (sheer is shown!).

Zibska has a new store location at the beautiful Flux Sur Mer sim and you'll find 3 brand new jewellery packs exclusive to this location. I'm wearing Faustine, which includes necklace and earrings with colour change HUD.

And so I decided to go and show my new pretties off whilst lounging in the sunset at Kingdom of Sand...

Have a great weekend peeps!

Woodland Nymph

It's time for all of you Second Life woodland creatures, fairy folk, elves and other fantasy peeps to flock to The Fantasy Collective! 

As soon as I saw this dress by !gO! I couldn't wait to get my hands on it. Available in 3 different colour/season versions, this fantasy gown is beautifully unique and gave me the 'Nymph' idea for today's pic. The top and skirt are separate pieces.

Dolly's hair is by [Entwined] and can also be found at The Fantasy Collective. It's a pretty side-swept, wavy, mid-length style and is available in their usual colour packs.

I also thought the new gacha accessories by LODE at the current round of Shiny Shabby worked really well for the look of the day.

Dolly is also once again enjoying the company of {anc}'s adorable bunnies!

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!

Eurial

Eurial is the name of this gorgeous new headwear by Remarkable Oblivion, available at the July round of The Secret Affair. There are 3 versions available - Gorgan Red, Medusa Blue and Stheno Black. This is one of my fave all time RO pieces!

Also new at The Secret Affair are these bracers by The Plastik. There are men's and women's sizes available, in a variety of designs. 

The Epiphany is an all new gacha event that opened this week. It's where you'll find this beautiful bodychain by Kibitz, as well as matching accessories. What make this gacha different? Upon rezzing your prize, it allows you to either keep it or redeem it for points/credits. So no need to worry about unwanted duplicates piling up! When you get 25 points you can trade them for one of the exclusive prizes (copy version) on offer by any of the creators involved in the event. Get 200 points and you can trade for a transfer version. The exclusives area is up a huge staircase from the event itself, its sign-posted so you'll find your way ;)

I adore this new skin by [PUMEC], which is a gacha prize for the new Epiphany event. 'Yasmin' is soooo pretty!! There are 2 skin tones available, 4 different make-up options and 4 different brow options plus clean skin rares. As with all the skins by this creator, appliers are included for Lelutka, Genesis 2.0 and TMP heads (this really has become my face skin designer for the Lelutka appliers!). There is also a rare prize of the mesh body and parts appliers for those who haven't purchased [PUMEC] skins previously.

The face paint I'm wearing with the skin is by ARISE and this is another item at TSA. In addition to the tattoo layers included (in multiple colour options), there are appliers for Lelutka and TMP.

Roquai has a new pose collection out for The End event, called 'rain'. There are 6 poses in all, split into 3 pairs. 

Ohhh... and a new round of Shiny Shabby is just around the corner. [Entwined] hair has this beautiful long wavy style as a release for the event!

Bad Dreams

There is no shortage of events just starting or that have started within the last few days to fulfil your Second Life shopping needs and obsessions ;)

Post-Apocalyptic themed 'The End' opened today and Zibska has this very cool mask, headpiece and collar set new for the event. Rusty metal, flowers and spiky claws - perfect for your post-apoc nightmares! Each item is worn separately and the set comes with a HUD to change between 4 colour/texture options. 

The necklace is part of a jewellery set also by Zibska, this time at The Secret Affair. A colour HUD is also included for this and the main necklace part and the beads can be colour-changed independently of one another.

This witchy feline friend is by Azoury and their are 3 versions included - a deco cat with cage, an unrigged cat with cage with static hold animation and cat-without-cage option for holding in your arms. Freaky cute and, as always with Azoury, super-high detailed. This can be found at the Wizarding Fair until July 25th.

What you can see of dolly's hair is a very cute short bob style by [sYs] at the Hair Fair. Lovin' the HUD that comes with the [sYs] hair, which allows you to have full colour, the colour with roots option, with fades option or with both dark roots and fade. 

Remember all hair fair items donate a portion of the proceeds to the 'Wigs for Kids' charity so any linden dollars spent here will be supporting a very worthy cause!

Oh... and on the subject of things that are cute, how adorable are these bunnies by {anc}?!! You can find them at the Wayward Carnival in 3 different colours (with a fatpack available for purchase). Each colour pack contains bunnies in various poses or there is also a low land impact (1Li) option of placing a group of bunnies out too!
