Pure Evil

  "Maleficent: Listen well, all of you. The Princess shall indeed grow in grace and beauty, beloved by all who know her. But, before the sun sets on her 16th birthday, she shall prick her finger, on the spindle of a spinning wheel - AND DIE!
" Sleeping Beauty - 1959

 Walt Disney's Sleeping Beauty, my all time favorite fairy tale growing up.  I always loved the storyline and of course, the witch Maleficent had to be the best villain I'd ever seen out of all the Disney fairy tale movies!  I was looking at the new Flickr posts the other day and came across a new Maleficent Witch Avatar and costume by Precious Restless of Vita's Boudoir!  I couldn't believe it, it was simply stunning!  I of course had to buy, buy, buy, then try it on as soon as I could.  You definitely need the latest Phoenix and/or a viewer for mesh.  She made several sizes in certain pieces for a good fit.  Here is the writeup in the marketplace by Precious:

This is a complete avatar,  which means it contains skin,eyes,brows,sculpted eyelashes,dress(mesh in 5 standard sizes),hat(also mesh in 5 sizes),shoes,witch animated magical staff and alpha layers in every possible combination so you can wear dress without hat in some another glamorous occasion :)))
Everything in box is modify except skin,eyes and brows ;)

This avie and costume is so much fun!  I took the pictures of Natalie below at Bentham Forest, the perfect setting for evil in its purest form :)  This would also make the perfect Halloween costume!  Yes, this detailed, beautiful costume along with the avatar is amazing....literally to DIE for!  *evil laugh*

The Eyes Have It!

I found some really pretty and good quality face tattoos by Sonia28 Jie of Son!a.  They come in several different styles and colors.  Of course I had to purchase the fatpack for each so I'd have every color!  Each fatpack comes in 6 different colors and the one called Fairy Face Tattoo (my personal favorite)  contains sculpted prim face diamonds.  They range in price from 300 to 400L.  The name of the store is Son!a Luxury Fashion.  Here is the link to the marketplace:  https://marketplace.secondlife.com/stores/14700/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&search[category_id]=&search[maturity_level]=G&search[keywords]=fairy+face+tattoo

It’s wonderful to see all these together in one place!

Wisteria Wind

Okay, I know I'm rather slow moving here lately, sorry you all! Just been very busy with first life, you know how that goes. I miss blogging, so can't imagine staying away for too long! Anyway....

This time my blog is focusing on a simply stunning outfit my friend and sis SeleneLily gave me. She is always so thoughtful and is known to shower people with gifts for no particular reason at all, except that she's an unselfish, kind, and wonderful person :) This outfit is called Wisteria Wind by Elvina Ewing and the color is to die for! My favorite color is already blue, so this is just perfection to me. As always, the details are what make the outfit so special....it contains wisteria and little butterfly adornments, along with lovely and elaborate feminine trim. The fit is just right and flows beautifully. The flowing fabric moves as you do and looks totally natural. You can also wear it in different ways as there are several pieces. Here is what's listed in the marketplace:

This set includes 13 pieces in total:
✿ clothing layers (no mod/copy): top on shirt and undershirt layers; thong; long glitchpants;
✿ prim parts (mod/copy): sculpted chest cloths decorated with wisteria vines and flowers;
✿ 2 slightly different flexi prim skirts with sculpted folds decorated with wisteria vines and flowers;
✿ L & R upper leg long skirt pieces (sculpted folds & flexi prims);
✿ L & R upper leg short skirt pieces (sculpted folds & flexi prims);
✿ L & R sleeves decorated with wisteria flowers.

The matching wreath and sandals are sold separately. Also, I added the wings from Fancy Fairy because I decided I wanted to be a faerie for a change. The outfit comes in both blue and purple.

A Collector of Mushies

Hi all!  I know it's been a long time since I've posted, and I apologize for that!  I've had alot going on in real life and have just not been able to be on like  I want to.  I'm hoping I can be more regular with my posts again *crosses fingers*.

I'd like to dedicate this post to a precious accessory I absolutely love created by Maena Tammas of Mae Fairy Tale.  First, I adore mushrooms of all sizes, shapes, and colors.  To me, they are so magical and add so much to any kind of fantasy scene you may want to create.  There are so many beautiful and different "styles" here in Second Life.  I decided to go to a sim called Calan Diva to take some pictures for this post, as they have some lovely and colorful mushrooms on display.  I dressed Natalie in a darling outfit created by Elvina Ewing called,  Huldra, then I added a new accessory designed by Maena called Shroom Backpack with Gnome.  It's exactly as it states, a backpack full of colorful mushrooms with a tiny gnome holding a lantern hanging on the side of the backpack.  It is just wonderful and so much fun!  Thus, the little Mushroom faerie starts her collection of enchanted mushrooms.....with the little gnome's help of course!  :)

Natalie is wearing....
Clothes:  Huldra outfit by Elvina Ewing
Hair:  Early in Brown by Elikatira
Skin:  Leah by Aida Ewing
Backpack:  Shroom Backpack with Gnome by Maena Tammas of Mae Fairy Tale
