She walks in beauty like the night

http://She Walks in Beauty like the Night

Friday night was my 12th anniversary in Second Life.  NOT my rez day, my anniversary, with the same amazing guy.  Our first date all those years ago was at Frank’s, back when there were poseballs.  (If you don’t know what those were, each set was for one particular dance.  To dance something else, you needed to jump to another set that wasn’t being used.)  Being a first date, we started with something innocuous, a waltz.  After a while, we jumped to something like a foxtrot.  And then the original SL3 became available, definitely a romantic choice in those days, something that carried meaning, and I remember wondering if he’d suggest we make the jump.  He did, and the rest followed.  It’s been a fabulous 12 years, and so Friday was therefore a pretty special occasion for me.  We were going to Frank’s (like we’ve done every single year on our anniversary!), which meant that I wanted to look my very best.  Because it had been so many years together, I wanted a gorgeous gown that combined a sense of elegance and style with pure sexuality.  I tried on lots of gowns… LOTS.  But the moment this one was on, I just knew.  It was the one.  Kind of like with my guy.  I just knew.  Sighs, smiling.  Now go have fun shopping!

  • Gown:  Guguvaga (GGVG) Fashion – Nelly Gown.  Worn in looped lace; also available in a solid silvery white.  The texture is sensational; in low light, the circles actually gleam silver without being glitzy in the least (I tried to catch it in the images, but you really need to see it in person).  It heightens the elegance of what is a truly sexy, totally alluring gown.  Includes the pearl necklace & the hip pearls, as well as the optional shawl, which definitely kicks the classiness up a notch or two but hides the asymmetric cut across the chest & the thin pearl strap.  I wore it out for the evening with the shawl until I hit the dance floor, at which time I took it off so that I could really move.  Stunning, glamorous, there are simply not enough superlatives for this gown.  Sized for Slink H/P, Belleza F/I, Legacy, & Maitreya, & EXCLUSIVELY available at the January Swank Event, January 7th – 31st.
