The Spring Enchantress

She's arrived! The newest installment in our "Seasonal Enchantress" line - "The Spring Enchantress" - embodies the magic of the season. Inspired by nature and the soft beauty that embodies the season, she's full of little details.

"The Spring Enchantress" is sold in six different color/hue combinations. Each pack includes 4 hairstyle variations in the 2 colors shown on the packs (no substitutions, please). That's EIGHT coordinating hairstyles total for each pack. The packs also include the bodice, the handkerchief skirtbase, the handkerchief flexiprims, the long ballgown skirtbase, the long ballgown flexiprims, iridescent wings in two sizes (butterfly and fairy sizes), gorgeous vine-and-flower prim adornments for the right upper arm, right forearm, and right and left lower legs. The gown is richly detailed with iridescent satin, trim, a brocade embossed fabric at the bust, and be sure to zoom in on the shimmering ombre/iridescent prim texture. Semi-sheer, diaphanous, shimmering - she's a spring delight!

I am also *very* proud to say that this project unveils Starley Thereian's new line of gorgeous realistic hair textures. The warmth and beauty of them absolutely astounded me. Originally intended to debut at Hair Fair, I am pretty stoked she chose to debut them for this project.

The hairstyle is available for purchase separately, as well, in extensive color packs if you do not like the coordinating colors included, or if you just wish to purchase the hair. Each hair pack includes the hair in the colors shown in the four styles (flowered, chopped bangs - flowered, regular bangs - nonflowered, chopped bangs - nonflowered, regular bangs).

I hope the fun that we had working on this project is evident.

"The Spring Enchantress" will be available until April 30th (all of our enchantresses will only be available for one month) as a limited release.

New!

Two new collaborations with Ginny Talamasca of Last Call by DHC. 

*Melrose: includes the top, pants, skirtbase, babydoll blouse prims, babydoll dress prims, skirt prims, and two pairs of flare prim pants cuffs. Funky flower child, fashion-forward, or just plain fun, "Melrose" is a huge set with loads of mix-n-match possibility. Easy, breezy, and beautiful :D (Available in six beautiful color combinations).

*Indochine: includes the bodice with corset, the bodice with corset and bolero, the bolero by itself, the skirtbase, the crushed silk flexi-prims, and a pair of black capris accented with the same silk used in the corset and bolero. Knotted buttons accent the piece. It's a richly textured dress inspired by the Catherine Deneuve film. (Available in five muted colors or a fatpack).

Ginny's posted more photos of all the colors at her blog, or stop by Celestial Studios or Last Call to check them out in person.

Introducing Burlesque Dolls

Another display of blatant plagiarism.  Ok, it's not really plagiarism if you have permision, it's just ... I dunno, being lazy.  Pulling this from the Dazzle blog for you to read here. :D

Underwear/Lingerie at Last Call and Celestial City! Ginny and I really pulled out some texture stops to make these sets SEXY, hi-detail, and fun. We looooved working on these sets so much we had to get the queen of hair in on it, too. (Yar, Elika Tiramisu :P)

She's produced some exclusive hair that coordinates in theme and accessory textures with the line! 

Candida is a set that meshes couture with the burlesque. Irridescent satin is overlaid with boned lace. The camisole has peekaboo contrast cups, a zip back, and scalloping details. The panties are also scalloped and coordinate with the same irriedescent satin underlay. The set is accented with FOUR different versions of a prim bustle - from the deconstructed wire mesh overlay to piles of flouncy feathers - Candida is a LOOKER. The set includes the fantastic mesh-adorned shoes by Miss Thereian herself - and funky "stockinglets" with flexi ruffles at the tops and coordinating ribbon trim.

Emanuelle is a TDF - TO DIE FOR - corset-laced camisole set with exposed lacy bra top. The lacing is off-centered and supports a lace-overlaid sheer fabric. The panties are accented with lace - and sheer in the back. Red, red thigh-highs make a contrasting statement and perfectly coordinate with Starley's come-n-get-me peekaboo pumps. (This one is my favveeee ladies!)

LeeAnne plays up the whole innocence = not so innocent thing. Gingham, oh yes!! Annoyed with upskirts? Don't be anymore! We designed this one so that every time someone tries? They'll just see ADORABLE lacy boyshorts. Super super short skirts = not for the faint of heart. The sets include the cami-jacket tops, flexi skirts, and white shiny hose. Each LeeAnne set also comes with adorable prim-freaking-tastic gingham sandals by the Starleynator.

Finally, there's "Vanessa." A vamp at heart, each set includes the leopard and lace bra, leopard and lace open-strap panties, leopard and lace babydoll top, and sheer sequin-spangled chiffon flexi babydoll prims. Also included with each "Vanessa" set? ADORABLE hi-heeled leopard platforms.

Each is available for purchase in single sets or in discounted FatPacks!! 

We plan on fleshing out this line in the coming weeks - and I heard Miss Tiramisu is too ^_~ Come grab them - and come grab the hair - which you've seen in our "lookin for love" event ads - and you'll see on her blog ASAP - which can ONLY be found right now @ Last Call!!

Sweetie

New floral dresses out tonight.  I'm very tired so I'll keep it short. Available in 5 colors.  Midnight shown above and left to right below:  Summer, Spring, Sanguine, Midnight, Black & White.   Yes, I know I didn't stay on theme, but I'm tired, leave me alone! :P

Asian Inspired Florals

Two new sets out today.  Shown above is Hana which (I'm told) means flower in Japanese.  Though certainly not an authentic replica, I think this has a very Japanese flair with the kimono style top.  It is available in 5 colors, each with black capri pants.  The pants and top are both slit on the sides which you can't see very well in the photo.

Chrysanthemum is another asian-feeling floral print, this time on a flexi babydoll.  Available in four colors.  Both are also offered as Willow packs.

All colors here:

Paradox Plaid

New skirt set out today.  Top, flexi skirt and bangle bracelets. Available in red, white and pink.

Shown with fishnets by Ginny Talamasca, Lulu socks, and "Bridget" hair, by ETD.

La La Lemonade

Some days I just don't have the inspiration/motivation/energy to make anything in SL, and some days I'm just ready to go.  Today was a go day.  Most go days, I know I want to make something, but can't decide what.  Skin? Clothes? Hair? Shoes? What?  So on those indecisive days, I ask my trusty Canimal "What should I make?"  And she invariably replies with something completely unhelpful. Like "pancakes". 

Today she said "Lemonade".  I wasn't gonna let her get me again (those prim pancakes were a total FLOP), so I tried to think "If lemonade were a dress, what would it be?"  I decided it should be sweet, summery, and a little tarty.  Thus the Lemonade dress was born.

These are halter dresses with two lengths of flexi skirts, tintable cropped shrug that'll layer nicely with just about anything.  I included a glass of bubbly lemonade with each outfit as well.  Yes, I know lemonade doesn't bubble.  But hey, this is SECOND Life, I think everything should bubble. :)

Also available as Pink Lemonade:
