Down in the Underground: The Black or White Hunt

Hello my lovelies! I hope your new year is off to a good start. New Years always brings about the reminder that we can change and we have choices. Choices that have much power to influence our future. (I’ve been drawn to the Dark Side hehe) Fi’s latest hunt is the Black or White Hunt which offers two hunt paths to choose from. Black is difficult while white is easy. All shops have two gifts set out, one for each path, but they ARE NOT the same gift or recolored versions of the same thing. So what will it be? Black or White? You’re welcome to do both paths of course and why not? The gifts are amazing and I’m going to share a bit about what you can find. FYI hunt links and info below the pictures.

At Mishmash Fusion, the black gift offers an outfit for women and men. They are so well done as always that I’m dragging my husband to get the men’s as soon as I can. The top for the women’s look is a jacket/top combo so there’s no worries about side boob if you’re wearing a mesh body like I am. Myst, your textures are amazing as always! 😀

My lovely little black dress is from Get Frocked’s black path. Fit was Purrfect and the look? Sexy. You could easily wear this for a date night or make it casual with some leggings.

The lovely Fiona of Fi’s Creations made a darling little dress. Layered sweetly with a cute bow on the waist, you will be doing twirls in this mini dress like I was! Pair it with the right heels to make this a great statement outfit.

My gray dress with the side slit actually came in two versions. The other dress that is included with this one is essentially the same but it is covered in the same pattern as the faux belt on this one. An included leaf necklace with a color change hud completes this look. It’s a touch provocative with just enough class to keep it balanced. I personally cannot wait to see what else Faerietale Designs has to offer in future hunts. (Please Faerie!!!!)

Euphoria Couture is the designer of the last outfit I’m sharing in this post. I was a little worried about the high waisted pants looking odd on me but damn, they make my legs look awesome! This is a great outfit for the working lady on the go. It’s classy and fashionable without feeling stiff. Bonus points for making the zebra print look amazing!

Lastly, the gazebo I’ve been taking all these photos in is the white hunt path gift from =EC Designs=. *waves to Cara and Jaxx* I love it you two! It’s a heavenly piece to sit and think or have a quiet cuddle with a loved one while watching the water. The arched columns are beautifully crafted to surround the pool and its benches. Go find it!!

Happy hunting everyone. And remember there’s two paths to try. Good luck! 🙂

And the Stars Look Very Different Today

A week ago, one of my idols left this world for the next. The next morning text I had received from a friend late Sunday night was one of comfort but it was also how I found out the sad news about David Bowie’s death. I was both shocked and yet not.

Here was a man who lived every moment creating art in everything he did. Music, film, and a fashion icon, David Bowie has always been an inspiration through his constant innovation. My first exposure to his work was when I was four years old and I watched Labyrinth in which he starred as Jareth, the Goblin King. I was entranced. Ever after his music has inspired and moved me in ways no other artist could. His passing is loss to the world but he lives on through his work.

To honor the Starman, everyone has held a tribute of their own. In SL there’s been tribute concerts and events held in his memory. I’m no DJ. I’m not a host. I’m not a designer. But I am a fan who desires to remember this legend in only the ways she can. Listening to his music and writing a short blog post.

Fallen Gods has set up a vendor of David Bowie skins, gestures and sound bits, and his iconic lightening bolt makeup for free. Not sure how long this will be up so grab them while you can.

On a side note, We ❤ RP still has their December round out if you want the gown from my last post. Fi’s Hunts the Black or White Hunt has begun and I will be blogging hunt gifties soon.

Ice Inside Your Soul

 

And who do you think you are?/Runnin’ ’round leaving scars

Collecting your jar of hearts/And tearing love apart

You’re gonna catch a cold/From the ice inside your soul

So don’t come back for me/Who do you think you are?

–Jar of Hearts, Christina Perri

I am no Cinderella, but I certainly love dressing like her. But in this gown I feel more like the Snow Queen. Beautiful and aloof. Ready to steal everyone’s attention then disappear with nothing behind except a footprint in the snow.

Cinderella would have left her glass slipper behind. Cinderella’s prince would have found it and rescued his princess with the help of her glass slipper. But me? There’s no way I would leave my lovely glass slippers from Mishmash Fusion in the snow. These lovely shoes look lightly frosted with little etches all over. A decorative spiral and curved piece on the back and small piece on the toes add a touch of fairytale magic to these whimsical heels. The strap across the front insures no loss of footwear while you dance the night away with Prince Charming. I just love these darling Slink shoes.

The gown I’m wearing is from Evie’s Closet and comes in a few other colors. I had no problems with sizes with this dress which includes several sizes. It’s elegant and formal enough for any event you might attend. I simply adore how the texturing of this gown was down to look light and airy, as if the skirt will twirl out as your dance partner spins you across the dance floor.

Around my neck I’m wearing a necklace given to me by my own Prince Charming for Christmas. This lovely locket comes with a menu to change metal color, gem type, and to play a secret message written on a notecard in the locket’s contents. As part of the Twisted Krissmuss gifts, I do not know if this will still be available after the event but Chaos, Panic, & Disorder has beautiful jewelry so I wanted to share a special piece I was given. Twisted Krissmuss ends January 11th.

I hope everyone’s new year is going well and I will try to post more regularly now that the holidays are over. Until next time lovelies. 🙂 ❤
