Autumn Thoughts

Autumn is late in my country this year: I'm still wearing sandals and sleeveless tanks. However, nothing more than imagination can make me feel the spirit of the season, and this happened thanks to some amazing fantasy releases by Kouse's Sanctum and EMO-tions.
Kouse Singh released some stunning gowns, as usual available in many colors, but the one that hit me was "chocolate", a warm brown shade perfect for the upcoming season. They are available with trimming in gold or silver.

Gown: Kouse's Sanctum - Juniper Chocolate - 500L

Mirja Mills released an amazing set of autumn hairstyles for Modavia Fashion Week, as well as the matching outfits released in the store last Saturday. Those creations are really inspiring, embodying the essence of the season, as a spirit of the nature. Tattoo layers and accessories are included. I'm showing a selection of my favourites.

Hair Fair, New Stuff, Deals and Freebies, Viewer Talks and Random Nonsenses

My experiments and I are back! I gathered so much stuff in the past days that I will never be able to blog everything...events, new releases, special deals, gifts, things on Second Life run too fast! It took me a week to put together all this, so *Imperio* read! 

New releases a cute ensemble from The Sea Hole and exclusive releases at Hair Fair 2011 from AOHARU and Wasabi Pills (remember that when you buy something at Hair Fair, part of the proceeds goes to the charity organization Wigs For Kids) Also, an amazing retro pair of shoes from Donna Flora, that is not new but I totally love it, and a free outfit from The Sea Hole. 

Top & Skirt: The Sea Hole - Annis Top, (barley Sheer) mauve & Smocked Skirt - Coral - they are sold separatedly, they're available as an ensemble in the same color or you can mix and match among the offered colors as I did. The top comes in 2 versions, barely transparent and very transparent, and the skirt comes upper lace and lower lace versions. 103L + 117L.

Hair: AOHARU @ Hair Fair - Megan (espresso) - 220L (50% donation) 

Shoes: Donna Flora - Ilde Shoes (rose) - 350L

Since I logged in on Firestorm to try the new copy-to-clipboard-worn-stuff feature, at this point I decided to try shadows again. They are still unsupported, as the viewer itself warns us when enabling them, but I'm stubborn...and I managed to take this close up to show you better the lovely hairstyle...

...but then I dared too much...I knew it was better not to move my camera with shadows enabled, but I did it anyway. I took the pic, hit on save...and crashed! I was lucky enough to get this closeup on the shoes. The windlight setting I had on for the headshot messes up a bit the skin matching but I swear it was very good!! I worked a lot on that and I was very pround, but I didn't feel brave enough to try again... So I disabled shadows and relogged to take the rest of the pics!

Outfit: The Sea Hole - WeedTastic Freebie Outfit - free on the marketplace, belt and bag included. 

Hair: Wasabi Pills @ Hair Fair - Mochi Hair - Chocolate - 250L (not specified amount % donation)

Sandals: KIWI - Zimra Flat Sandal Black - 60L. This sculpt has been around for a while and since I'm a fan of the flat sandals, a bit neglected in favor of heels, I tried some of them even though I'm not crazy for the sculpt itself. This is the best achievement I have seen so far, it comes with a hud for skin, nails and toe ring (quite easy to use) and it's part of the Sixty Lindens Weekend. 

Exclusive release from EMO-tions at Hair Fair, new releases from je suis... and VERO MODERO, special deal from Dark Mouse. Let's have a look!

Dress: VERO MODERO - Dolce Maroon - 300L 

Hair: EMO-tions @ Hair Fair - Alice (dark brown) - isn't that cute? It comes also with flowers! 245L (50% donation) 

Bangles: je suis... - je suis... grande reds - 149L (all color pack 599L)

Jewelry Set: Dark Mouse @ Disco Deals - I like skittles too - necklace, earrings and bangles, 99L each. 

I think I talked even too much for today! Hugs to you all!

TO BE CONTINUED...

Roleplay and More - { SeVered GarDeN }

I am finally recovering from the horrible temperature that struck me in bed in the last days, and today I want to feature a brand that in my opinion deserves more attention: { SeVered GarDeN }, owned by Berta Avro and Bubi Bolissima.
Their beautiful works are focused mainly on the Gorean and fantasy worlds, even though lately they have started to consider mainstream fashion too, with lots of good results and responses from their clients. Last but not least, their price are very affordable, a great reason to get an awesome look without spending too much!

When I talked to Berta the first time, she told me she loves designing clothings in general, but that roleplay outfits are what allows her to unwild her imagination and that makes her happy the most, which is mainly what the same kind of thoughts I have when it's time to blog! That is why I'll show you today, together with her latest mainstream releases, some hints of her way to portray Gorean female roles.

Thanks a lot, Berta! :)

Outfit: { SeVered GarDeN } - Josie *Brown - 350L, many wearing options, accessories and boots included.

Outfit: { SeVered GarDeN } - Melodie * Wine - 250L, FW outfit, 2 wearing options for many roleplay needs.

Outfit: { SeVered GarDeN } - Tala - 350L, accessories, face tattoo and barefeet in 3 colour options included (usually Berta is kind enough, if they don't match your skin, to send you a modify version). The little bird on the shoulder is super cute, isn't it? Aww!

Outfit: { SeVered GarDeN } - Olga Turquoise - 250L, accessories and boots included.

Outfit: { SeVered GarDeN } - Frida * Wine - 220L, various PG and mature wearing options (PG version shown).

Outfit: { SeVered GarDeN } - Mina * Old Pink - 290L, super cute outfit, accessories and boots included, for the latest cold days of winter.
