Happily Ever After Faun

Haunched like a faun, he hooed
From grove of moon-glint and fen-frost
Until all owls in the twigged forest
Flapped black to look and brood
On the call this man made.

No sound but a drunken coot
Lurching home along river bank.
Stars hung water-sunk, so a rank
Of double star-eyes lit
Boughs where those owls sat.

An arena of yellow eyes
Watched the changing shape he cut,
Saw hoof harden from foot, saw sprout
Goat-horns. Marked how god rose
And galloped woodward in that guise.

...Sylvia Plath

I just had to blog about an adorable gift I received from a wonderful friend who's like a sister to me, SeleneLily Galicia. One day I logged into Second Life and found I had received a surprise purchased at Fantasy Faire! I opened the box and inside was a lovely, white faun outfit! The detail and quality were impeccable and the fit is great :) I loved the fact the legs were white, matching my beloved unicorns on Enchanted. This outfit came with two horns and white ears, but I knew I could mix and match and also use a unicorn horn I'd purchased at Illusions, too. I love the faun components, as they are very simple to wear...not a ton of little "pieces" to decide on and try. The set is called Happily Ever After Spring Faun in white by Ravenlynn Templar. Such a befitting name, because the little white faun did live happily ever after in her lovely, enchanted forest among the unicorns.

Back in Black

Yes, I'm finally doing another post and this time I'm BACK IN BLACK! hehe I thought Halloween would be the perfect time to show off a striking, eye-catching outfit by Kira Lavendel of MysticHope Designs. It's not a new design, but is really pretty and in classical black. As always, the design contains many ways to put it together. This includes with or without cuffs, with sleeves or without, and as a long gown or just pants. The cut and trim on the design gives it a nice feminine touch and originality. I photographed several views so you could see the different components. I am posing in my new sim called, Enchanted (you know the project that's had me out of pocket a bit) along with one of my unicorn friends :)
