Mmmm, the scent of a wild evening to come!

http://Mmmm, the scent of a wild evening to come

I’ve always loved the anticipation of an exciting night out, all the prep and the little touches… the bit of doubt mixing with all the possibilities of what’s to come.  Scent has always been a part of that…  subtle but distinct, teasing those pheromones!  Not too much, not too little… just like my outfit!  Mmmmm, yes, that smells like it will be a night to remember!

  • Outfit:  I.M. Collection – Farah Suit.   I just love the shape of this suit, & I honestly think it loves my shape right back!  With a neckline that plunges to the waist-to-hip buttons showing just the right amount of reveal, over flattering pants that are not too tight & not too loose.  The suit also includes matching heels, where the pattern not only goes on the insole but also on the sole itself (something I totally did NOT expect but I have to say that it looks really cool when dancing lol).  Choose between two 20-texture fatpacks, leather or animal print (you know whenever there’s an animal print that’s what I choose), or for some awesome mix ‘n match possibilities (which is what I’ve done), grab the Megapack.  Either way, the textures are top quality!  Sized for Reborn+Waifu, Legacy+Perky, & Maitreya+LaraX, Rhea is EXCLUSIVELY AVAILABLE at the April round of Designer Showcase, open April 5th – 25th.  See the ad below for details.Demo available.

One of the things I love about fantasy is that you can go wherever your fancy takes you.  And right now, steampunk is the way!   Is this where the expression “gearhead” comes from?  (LOL, I know it’s not, but maybe it should be?)

Dining al fresco…

Posted on by cejalaval

http://Dining al fresco

Having a  home in Second Life is one of those things non-residents just don’t understand.  And it’s hard to explain… I mean, we don’t really eat or sleep.  But for me (and obviously for many others), having a home adds something major to the SL experience.  And since it’s effectively a “dream home”, we fill it with things that make us happy, that create the ambiance that fits our fantasy.  And although we don’t really eat in SL (which is how we all stay in whatever shape we want to be in!), as in real life, food and dining is a focus for our SL home.  And if you have any outdoor space, a place to sit, converse, entertain, dine, snuggle, and just enjoy the view, is almost a necessity.  This outdoor dining set does all that, and with all the included bento animations, it does it beautifully.  Check it out, and then enjoy!

Dreamland Designs – Outdoor Dining Table Set.    LOVE this set, which is perfect for any outdoor space, whether a porch, terrace, or right on the ground.  Super comfy for dining, the table itself has no legs, but hangs together with the candles from the wooden frame anchored in two planter pots.  Includes the place settings & table candles, with a full menu of bento animations (sitting, eating, & “other”) for singles & couples.  EXCLUSIVELY available in Adult or PG at the current round of N21, open March 21st – April 12th.  Demo on display.

  • Dog:  JIAN – Boston Terrier, Hot Dog Thief (table not shown)

Think you’re man enough to handle ME?

http://ARE you man enough to handle ME?

So as much as I may be knocked over by individual photos by fashion bloggers that always stand there looking straight at the camera in some variation of the same pose, personally I prefer pix that tell a story, that show the “model” caught in a moment of doing something.  That said, I’ve discovered that sometimes a particular fashion look demands a head-on, look-in-the-eyes pose, usually one with a bit of a challenge (at least in my own head, anyway lol).  This was definitely one of those times, and when I stumbled upon this little speakeasy, I just knew this was the place, and this was the atttitude…  Enjoy!

  • Dress:  Carol’s Store – Evelyn Jumpsuit.  As stunning as this jumpsuit is in the ad, not to mention how amazing I felt in it from the moment I tried it on, I was still somewhat unprepared for how incredibly sexy it looks when out & about… in fact, my partner kept commenting on it when I wore it this week for our Friday date night, & after 16 years together, that’s saying something! Choose from 10 single colors or the fatpack of this amazing “wavy-striped” jumpsuit (even the single colors come with a HUD to change the belt & buckle color).  ORIGINAL MESH with materials enabled, Evelyn is sized for Reborn, Legacy, GenX (Classic & Curvy), LaraX+PetiteX+Lara V5.3, Kupra, Khara, Erika, & Love Momma.  See the ad below; demo available.

Is there anything more delightful than a spontaneous nap in the afternoon sun, maybe after a well-deserved and hopefully well-enjoyed glass of wine?  Well, yes, there are a few other things I can think of, but a nap like this definitely ranks up there!  And the delight is kicked up a notch or two when you look fantastic taking that nap lol, if not for you, well then for all who see you…  Happy naps, happy shopping, just happy Friday wishes!

Collection – Rhea Pant Set.  Comfy & stylish, Rhea includes a cropped long-sleeved embroidered sweater paired with linen pants that are slightly dipped at the waist & slit at the ankles, with a HUD that includes 8 textures for each (see the ad below).  Sized for Reborn, Legacy+Perky, GenX Classic, & Maitreya+LaraX, Rhea is EXCLUSIVELY AVAILABLE at the March round of Designer Showcase, open March 5th – 25th.  Demo available (just click for menu, then demo).

The wearin’ of the green

Posted on by cejalaval

http://The wearin' of the green

So in all the years that I’ve been blogging, I don’t think I’ve ever done a post for St Paddy’s Day.  And no, just because I have red hair and green eyes (well, at least most of the time anyway lol), I am NOT Irish.  (I also CANNOT sing, but hey, this is Second Life, so at least in pix I’m a FABULOUS entertainer… but trust me, I’ll never try to take an actual stage at ANY venue!) But today, the world celebrates along with the Irish, and this dress came in such a fabulous green, well, I just had to do some wearin’ of the green myself!  I even took the stage at a traditional little Irish pub… and there’s my cue to start my next set!  Hope you had a fabulous St Paddy’s Day (and did some happy weekend shopping too)!

  • Outfit:  JUMO Fashion – Fahad Dress.  Stunning short dressy dress with a plunging neckline, hip-high side slits, & the perfect amount of sparkle, with optional opera gloves for that extra little touch!  Not just for St Paddy’s, Fahad includes a HUD with 20 satin colors + 5 florals + 5 “scarf” colors. Sized for Reborn, Legacy+Perky, GenX Classic+Curvy, Maitreya, Kupra, Khara, & Peach, Fahad is currently at the March round of Designer Showcase, open March 5th – 25th.  Demo available.

http://Wait, Is that the Easter Bunny?

Unbelievable how fast the year is flying by… and equally unbelievable how merchandising for Easter has been EVERYWHERE for what seems like forever… one holiday just bleeds into the next.  But Easter does mean one thing, and that is that spring is here (or right around the corner, depending on where you live).  Jackets are coming off, shirt sleeves are getting shorter, shorts are coming out of the closet, and dresses are getting, well, spring-ier!  Now if only my allergies would get with the program lol…  Happy spring and happy shopping!

  • Dress:  Carol’s Store – Florence.  Beautiful spring/summer dress, with a gathered lace-edged bodice on a simple dress with a broad multi-pleated lace edge.  Choose from 10 single colors or the fatpack of this gorgeous subtle floral print.  ORIGINAL MESH with materials enabled, Florence is sized for Reborn, Legacy, GenX (Classic & Curvy), Lara+LaraX+PetiteX, Kupra, Khara, Erika, & Love Momma.  An exclusive at Cosmopolitan through TODAY Feb 16th, she will be available at the mainstore thereafter.  See the ad below; demo available.

Into the Deep

Posted on by cejalaval

 

http://Into the DeepDoes every fae have mermaid dreams?  I wonder… there’s something similar between winging my way through the sky and flipping my tail through the water.  It’s hard to put into words how much FUN it is, especially when there are things to explore on the ocean floor.  Thankfully, as a fae, I possess enough magic to effect a temporary transformation so that I can wander far and deep, finding riches of all sorts, though I think the richest of all are the memories… Smiles, flicks my tails, and leaves the sunken wreck to seek out a new find…

  • Skin:  Petrichor – Wyldeia Pastelle, a BRAND NEW trio of fantasy skins with custom mesh & textures.  Available in 3 tones — Rosi Pink (which is what I’m wearing), Lavi Purple (which is what I wore in this pic here), & Azuri Blue — in both male & female versions (see the ad below).  Includes ears, appliers, & skins; EvoX compatible.  Available as individual tones or as a megapack of all three, EXCLUSIVELY at The Skin Fair, open March 8th – 25th, at their booth in Skin Care South (you need to go to the landing point & then follow the arrow you get with this LM; for some reason, you can’t TP direct to booths.) Demos available.
  • Mermaid Textures: Te Moana by [AURO] – Gossamer.  Three fabulous items to help create a sensational mermaid look.

Oh wait, did you say you had a curfew tonight?

Subtitled: And yes, this one’s for you…

http://Hmmm, did you say you had a curfew tonight?

Schedules, schedules, schedules… hard enough to maintain one in real life, but when you also try to maintain all the schedules — personal AND blogging — in Second Life too, well, sometimes it can be a bit challenging both physically and emotionally.  And that’s about all I’m willing to say on the subject lol…

  • Outfit:  Luna Chelsea – Sasha Lace Floral Jacket & Pants.  I really don’t know how this outfit successfully & seemingly effortlessly blends super-sexiness with sedate elegance.  I love the floral lace pattern of the open jacket that buttons unevenly all the way down at the lower hip, with a single button, over skin-tight shiny black pants (latex?) with a flare starting below the calf…  Includes a HUD with 10 textures for the jacket, plus optional light effects to enhance the shininess (I’m wearing the optional blue light). Sized for Reborn, Legacy+Perky, LaraX+LaraXPetite, GenX Classic+Curvy, & Kupra, Sasha is EXCLUSIVELY available at the March round of Designer Showcase, open March 5th – 25th.  Demo available.
