#69 Peace on Earth 8- Kiss me at midnight!

“Kiss me at midnight” could easily be my name for this stunning outfit from Sonatta Morales for POE 8. The Peace On Earth hunt is on until the 9th January 2016 – and it is well worth the time to go hunting. This year there are several lovely ‘festive’ outfits to wear all year.

Sonatta Morales *8* Peace Kiss includes the skirt and top plus the fascinator, which I have relocated to suit my hairdo. Sonatta is known for her fantastic highly detailed and accurate SL rendering of period clothing as well as jewelry, hair and other accessories, and this outfit lives up to her reputation.

#64 My Attic @ The Deck 1

It’s my party, and I’ll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to, cry if I want to
You would cry too if it happened to you

Lesley Gore

It’s my party is the theme for the current round of My Attic @ The Deck which runs until the 30th of November.

{Nantra}’s I’ll Cry if I Want To chaise has a fabric change menu and includes several poses with props supplied. It is tempting me to lounge all afternoon in my *LACUNA* Alice Lingerie (for Maitreya and Slink MESH bodies only) which comes in 12 shades of lace.

The Stringer Mausoleum contribution to My Attic is a set of eyes – in shades of Blue, Green and Brown designed with inspiration from Helena’s daughter Shyanne’s eyes.

#63 Your Performance is Almost Over

New appliers for treasured gowns worn under stage lighting to meet a photography challenge!

Your performance is almost over
When you’re through I will take you home
To a place where the water’s always fresh and cool
I will lay you down, take off your shoes

I was inspired by finding that pixivor Allen – of ALaFolie has released MESH body appliers for some of her most fantastic creations. I have a special place in my heart for this version of the gown she created for Miss Philippines (back in…. 2009?) and several other treasured dresses. THANK YOU Pixi!

An old favorite heard on the radio – Performance – by Joe Cocker – gave me the story-line to meet a photography challenge set by a friend – I hope she likes what I’ve done.

#61 Pretty as a Picture – My Attic @ THE DECK

Stick figures zooming around in circles on bicycles?

Pictures waiting for me to climb into the frame?

An empty bed waiting for a sleeper?

I discovered these and many more intriguing inventions at CICA – the shop (I call it a gallery installation) of SL artist Cica Ghost.

#56 Femme Fatale

These are ‘grown up and sexy’ outfits for those times in Second Life when ‘cute’, ‘sweet’ or ‘comfortable’ won’t do it.

“When I’m good, I’m very good, but when I’m bad, I’m better.”

Mae West

These are ‘grown up and sexy’ outfits for those times in Second Life when ‘cute’, ‘sweet’ or ‘comfortable’ won’t do it. This new kind of latex just slides on over your Slink, Belleza or Maitreya body, (without any of that nasty stickiness,) fitting perfectly and not losing any of its shine.

Rebella, of [Marquesse] is having a creative frenzy – designing new items every week so go on in and see what rings your bell.

I have teamed her sexy dresses with 3 different hairdos from my Hair Fair discovery – NO.MATCH. heels from Essenz and Oceane’s sexy Cats Eyeliner.

Nancoix Urquan’s ‘Yes Mistress’ poses definitely showed the ‘bad is better attitude’, and her ‘Goody 2 Shoes pose shows a more submissive look.

#38 Hearts & flowers

Love is like a beautiful flower which I may not touch, but whose fragrance makes the garden a place of delight just the same.

Helen Keller

This sweet and sassy skirt with the red ribbon bow by Solde Rothmanay for POE# 079 was the base for this outfit. I have chosen to keep it casual and comfortable for the many Christmas parties I will be attending over the next few weeks …also to show of this soft and pretty skin by sawsan SecretSpy for POE7 #050. I slipped on a red satin wrap top by Toast Bard, black lacy heels by RKitty Lisa, and added Zuri Rayna’s sparkling Diamond Peace Pendant POE7 #005.

Go! …jump into the POE7 Hunt – and let us see what you find there.

#37 . . . The dove and very blessed spirit of peace, . . .

. . . The dove and very blessed spirit of peace, . . .

from William Shakespeare’s King Henry the Fourth, Part II

The Peace On Earth Hunt is a very special gift from the creators and designers of Second Life to shower us with blessings – take for instance, this tiny and perfect dove…

Created by Lua Vendetta for POE7 (# 056 ) – it perches happily on the tip of a slink fingernail!

I have teamed it with the shower of gifts from AnneAlyce Maertens of Dulce Secrets – who has gifted WINTER STORM – a gorgeous skin, makeup, eyes, shoes and a gown!!!

#27 A slither of silk

#25 the test

The test of clothing in Second Life is “the dancing”.

Ok – MY test for clothing in SL is the dancing- is that better? Perhaps too this is not a fair test because we sometimes subject our avies to dancing that is generally not possible for most humans.

Having said that – this Decibel corset & pants outfit by Rebel Hope (from FaMESHed) passes the test with flying colors. Decibel is easy to wear and the sizing is perfect. Both parts come with Huds – to change the studs and zipper color. I slipped on one of my all time favorite pairs of slink add-on pumps – I love the heel detail – by Pill Canto of Miamai.

My new skin is CINNIA in Nordic tone, by Steffi Villota with added freckles. I am wearing it with Truth Hawkes’ Vixen hair from ~Uber~ with color from the variety pack.
