Arwen's Creations: Cerridwen

This time I am focusing on another beautiful gown from Arwen's Creations called Cerridwen. When I was in the store, this one stood out because of the simple yet detailed and lovely styling. I also love the color combination I chose, green and brown (called pear and pinecone). These colors have always been some of my favorites because they're so befitting of a forest elf, plus they are just naturally pretty, representing true nature. I love all of Arwen's designs because they all look and feel so realistic, from the period look to the fabric itself. This one is no exception, plus it can be worn casually or otherwise, as it has contains many different pieces and ways to wear them. It also comes in 18 amazing color combinations. Here is Arwen's writeup in the Marketplace:

"Cerridwen" is a complete 16-piece Ladies ensemble for Medieval, Fantasy, or Rustic roleplay. The ensemble includes extremely detailed clothing layers (Jacket, blouse, high neck white undershirt that is not visible in the pictures, pants, underpants, and wrist length gloves), 3 skirts (1 single layer, 1 single layer with draped front and built in belt, and 1 double layer), scrunchy ¾ sleeves, shoulder pads, Cape, belt with scissors, pouch, and lock & keys, and an opaque draped veil.

I know I blog about Elvina Ewing's designs quite often, but you've got to admit they are fantastic and are true, fantasy styles! She has done it again with this lovely and amazing Christmas set! I actually received this outfit as a Christmas gift from none other than my beautiful and sweet friend (and sister), SeleneLily. As with all Elvina's designs, this one has many optional pieces that mix and match in green and red. It comes either red or green as the main color and includes the following:

❆ Clothing layers (no mod/copy): bodice on jacket and shirt layers; striped sweater on undershirt and shirt layers; underpants; stockings; tartan glitch pants on pants and underpants layers; alpha feet layer;
❆ Sculpted prim parts (copy/mod): sweater sleeves & collar;
❆ skirt with jingle bells (static);
❆ flexi tartan skirt;
❆ chest/back ties with flaps and bells;
❆ garters with bells;
❆ mittens with fur;
❆ elven shoes with bells;
❆ striped sock tops with ribbons;
❆ christmas hat with bells.

Chic Elf

Wow, has it been that long since I've posted a blog? I'm sorry I've been so behind! I've had so much going on in both real life and Second Life lately. In Second Life, the newly renewed gallery is finally done, so please stop by Enchanted and visit when you can :) Okay, now, back to the post :P I happened to spot a gorgeous new outfit called Marlene recently at EMO-tions and had to splurge. I love it because for one, it's very classy and chic, and elves can be both you know! I absolutely love the way this outfit is cut and designed. It's all once piece, but looks like a blouse tucked into slacks. What I absolutely love the most is how the pants follow the lines of your waist and hips with the top of the pants (waistline) hitting just below your chest. It's super flattering and very elegant. There are many optional pieces, including a high collar that can be on or off. It also has just the right touch of feminity with lovely lace trim on the blouse. Overall, the outfit can be worn for business, pleasure, and nice occasions...very versatile indeed :)
