Jaded Warrior

I hadn't been to the White Armory in a while and decided to go by and see their new items and any others that caught my eye. I was in the section labeled "Warrior" and that's where I found this beautiful outfit called Jaded Eclipse :) As all Bee Dumpling's gowns do, this one has so many options as far as skirt styles and pant pieces. It may be warrior gear, but it's truly a lovely and feminine choice.

Dreamy Faerie of Fall

Well, we're right smack in the middle of Fall right now, and I can't believe Thanksgiving is just around the corner!! I stumbled across a beautiful autumn faerie frock designed by Evangeline Miles of Evie's Closet the other day and just had to feature it. It's actually a gift for those joining the Evie's Closet group. If you are a true fantasy buff, you're already a member...if not, join! It's wonderful to receive the updates, plus the designer is a very generous gift giver if you're a member. This outfit is truly unique, magical and full of the typical Evie attention to detail. Check out her site listed on my blogroll for all kinds of information on her designs :)

Curio's *~*FOR ELVES ONLY*~* Skin

Curio Elf Holly 2 in Sundust Light (with freckles)

I almost always wear Curio skins exclusively. I think Gala Phoenix' skins are some of the best quality and most realistic I've seen in game. I have been by her store in Curio numerous times trying on demos. Of course I have my favorites, but I have not seen ONE that doesn't look good. Not long ago, she came out with a skin called, "Elf" specifically for those fantasy players in game. Elf comes in all the skin tones and the Fatpack contains twelve varieties as far as makeup style. Just like all her other skins, Elf comes in light and dark shades of each skin tone, plus has "freckles" as an option. I have three different styles shown within this post and I've labelled each below its corresponding picture. If you're looking for a quality skin for your elf, fairy, pixie, nymph or even you humans, you can't go wrong with Curio Elf.

Bringing Spring To A Close

I thought since Spring is just about over and Summer right around the corner, I would focus on a springtime outfit. When I was visiting Elven Glen the other day, I found a design in one of their elven shops that I thought was particularly pretty. The designer, Lilah Fairey, had made several other choices, too, but this one stood out. I liked it because it was definitely unique, had alot of class and an innocence about it, along with being simple and lovely. It's called, Elven Lore Spring, and consists of shirt, pants, undershirt, spring skirt, underpants, jacket and gloves. The "pants" are a white flower vine crawling down each bare leg, while the "undershirt" is a grouping of beautiful white flowers sprinkled here and there all over the bodice area. The "gloves" are also little white flowers on the hands, while the "jacket" is of a sheer chiffon. A pretty, feminine belt surrounds a lovely flexi mini made of the same chiffon giving the look a sweet, sexy touch.

Bold In Bronze

Quite often, I plan to focus on a particular fashion piece I feel deserves the credit and is of great style and quality. The couture I'd like to feature today is called Gryphon Bronze by Eclipse Lykin of ED. This piece is of strong, durable leather and a thick knit and comes in a rich, deep bronze color. Along with being very nice to look at and full of beautiful details, it's truly functional for the active elf. It comes with oodles of parts and features, including, a short-sleeved and long-sleeved shirt, short-sleeved and long-sleeved jacket, shoulder shawl, a belt with holster, gloves, hood, pants for boots or no boots, boots, stockings, shorties and garters. Of course everything can mix and match and the color is so neutral, alot of pieces can be worn with other outfits in your inventory. The boots are my favorite and I wear them with many other outfits :) You can find the store, Eclipse Development, in world or on XLStreet. I also have their blog in my listing of blogs to the right of this post.

Shopping Spree

I needed some new clothes in a most urgent way, so decided to do some shopping the other day. I happened upon a store that carried all varieties of elven and medeival enticements. Yes, I indulged in a few new outfits, well, I'd say about 7 or so. I tend to spend alot of time in one place until I know I'm making a good decision and getting the most for my money. I finally arrived back home with my purchases and could hardly wait to try them all on! That's what I spent the rest of my evening doing. I took my time with each outfit, looking at each one in the mirror as I did a few model spins per piece. I loved all of them, although there were a couple that were my favorite, so I know I'll end up wearing them twice as much or more than the others. Now I feel prepared to explore Elven Forest, a place I'd heard so much about. I think I'll sleep now, and do that tomorrow. Yep, shopping is hard work and tires a girl out!
