I found a treasure in a Caverna Obscura

Yes, I visited Caverna Obscura .. I didn't know it much before the Fantasy Faire, but when I saw it.. I recognised at the second I saw it what is and will always stay for me "Devora's dress"(see here the related picture and post).
And then I started talking around about Caverna Obscura, how nice it is, how detailled are the items..
and Magenta got sweet enough to show me off all the outfits she owns from there.

An Avilionian Storm

A new release from Avilion Mist and yet another proof of their creative skill and certain taste.
This outfit is called Storm and comes with nothing less than 31 pieces for endless mix and match possibilities and as many looks as your mind can think of.

The set includes the boots, the cloak, a hood and mask (not shown here) and the details are just incredibly stunning. The corset with laces both in front and back, the skirt (to be worn open or closed), the sleeves and gloves.. all this together creates the perfect look for the ladies who want to fight and still look feminine at wish.

Just one advice on this... if you're a lady and a roleplayer in medieval themed sims.. you better go get your "Storm" now !

Mix 'n Match

So let's have a little look at the latest gifts dropped by DSN and groups...
First is PixelDolls last group gift... a delicious silver bikini to be worn tied or untied as you wish. To be noted as well the tintable option so color won't be a problem here ! We can get a nice tan with the color of the day. And for the total sea-look .. I hope you grabbed Tekeli-li gift at Hair Fair !
Next is Silk and Satyr DSN gift... this set of silks is awesome. In my opinion it could also be worn as a very stylish swinsuit though it's not covering much on your behind *grins* Note the drapes are strippable, so yes this was much fun for a certain someone to rip them off while I was dancing at the Club Drow in Avilion Vale.

Last but not the least... A piece of Candy group gift is sooo cute... I wish I would get the same in RL for this summer, as the weather seems not to be tired of being so hot. Mwuah.. thanks designers for the gifts !

Status Quome: BUS-ted!

I decided to take a lil' trip around SL, but first I needed something to get me there. A spaceship? Too zippy. Maybe an elephant? Too big. Or a dragon? A dragon would be cool, it could light campfires for toasting marshmallows... but it might also light houses and toast avatars for its own meals, so... no, no dragon. And then I found this:


OMG, perfect!!! A VW bus! Just the thing to hold all the camping gear and me. Plus I can sleep in it and I can pick up friends along the way! YAY! Here I am about to have a little snack to boost my energy for...



...Tanning! It takes a lot of effort to just lie there and do nothing, you know. Especially if you're usually a spazz like me. Well, I couldn't stay still too long anyway, so I entertained myself with...



... this adoooorable mini-bus, that just happens to be pink! And when it flies it has a cloud of smoke just like a real one! (I think that was originally meant to cover up *other* kinds of smoke coming from other kinds of flying in hippie vans in the 60's. But I wasn't alive yet so it's just a guess.)


The end of my first day on the road.
But while I was out and about, I did find some more fun stuff, like...


A cute pink house, and furniture and a blouse to match! (The table and chairs were a gift, the rest is all found in one place.)

This kimono-print dress and more pink furniture...


And a quick side trip to the Harlow sim opening for this drop-dead GORGEOUS skin! All in all it was a great day! (and test-driving the bus in the skybox was hilarious! Maybe it was the fumes?)

Photos 1-4:
Skin: !DC Victorian skin, Harlow opening gift
Hair: Diversity Delilah, Hair Fair gift
Outfits: Moulliez Green Gingham and T Junction Dotty Bikini, Harlow opening gifts
Flower hairband: Ms free hairband from Rakan Japanese outdoor mall
Mini hippie bus: Fllo at Themis, lucky board (big bus, not free but way cool!)
Picnic basket, 1L on XStreet
White sunglasses, 1L at Ray Skin

Photo 5: Pink house, hair, outfit (free). White strawberry furniture & bowl (1L to 5L). All at Themis sim, see above.
Photo 6 & 7: Kimono-print dress, free at Rakan Japanese outdoor mall; necklace 1L at [chuculet], skin Eye Candi Natalia medium, Harlow opening gift. A set of 3 freckled skins is available in the store for 10L! (If you land at Striking Poses, check them out, then head south to 99, 56, 25. It's the last row before the water.)

***Sorry yall, The Harlow gifts are gone now, but DEFINITELY go check out the sim and the designers there. It's super-nice! I couldn't find a TP board to the other stores but I see more walking around anyway! =)

Mask the temptation

It doesn't even need comments... Free till 8pm SLT today --> here at hO wear

The sim I did my modelling on is also delicious, it's so very pretty and has thunder and lightening and rain....! ooh I love it, it's called a dark faerie's dream in the elven forest.

Enjoy! Saff xx

Meeep Meeep

Meh loves those great days with delights like Kouse and Boaz gowns... First picture is Christina.. last dream by Kouse.. for those who missed it ... Christina was introduced with a special offer for Canadian national day... 75L for a special edition.. awesome no ?
PLUS Kouse organised a little hunt at her store in Seabreeze.. you better hurry if it's not already finished.

And Boaz keeps me stunned with her latest creation... Jilyan... also available in a fae (short) version but the wonderful Rosie will be presenting it to you since she is a better fae than me !

Also I apologise for not posting a lot lately.. For those who spotted the info, I started a new job which is terribly time eating and .. unplanned detail... it's also awfully exhausting me physically and mentally for it's not what you can call a good position... so I'm fixing it and I'll try to be more there.. Sorry guys. Hugs



Update by Rosie

Here they are, the fae versions...



The wings are from (left to right) Wings'n'Things (long gone unfortunately) Fairy Pearls, Chaospire and Material Squirrel
Hair is from the Stringer Mausoleum, and shoes from 50Flats.
