Renewing the Enchantment

Renewing the Enchantment

For my second visit to Enchanted Realms, I donned the Thyra outfit from Urban Nobility and wore some magical Gaian eyes by Out of Orbit and a fanciful eyemakeup by Rubedo. The resulting look said sorceress to me, so I pulled out some poses from Uzme with magical effects and ventured into a mystical-looking glen to cast my spells.

An Enchanted Realm

An Enchanted Realm

From September 13th to September 27th, you are welcome to step into Enchanted Realms, a fantasy-focused shopping event hosted by the City of Venna. I decided to take the photos for this post at the venue, in a beautiful area of woodland next to the shopping area. There, I found a wishing well, which I peered deep inside before filling my amphora with water.

The outfit I am wearing is called Three Graces and is created by Good Fairy. It consists of a toga and a head covering and there are several colour packs available for retexturing it. It is also fitted to a large number of bodies.  My eye makeup is also from the event, a style called Magic Waves by Yasu. I liked how to scrollwork matched very nicely to the embroidery on the outfit.

Hanging Out At the Barn

Hanging Out At the Barn

The Dog & Pony Show is still going strong, with some of the brands putting out additional new releases as the halftime approaches. For my second feature of the event, I decided to setup a classy barn courtesy of The Domineaux Effect to showcase the regular and limited edition of the new American Miniature Horse as well as some gorgeous new coats form Aetheriel. I also dressed up in the new casual rider outfit from Salt & Pepper.

As always, photos and credits (with links to the event) follow below.

Eclectic Tastes

Eclectic Tastes

A bit peculiar. That was how they described the new master of the manor. He always dressed very elegantly—if in rather old-fashioned ways—and those who had called on him had found assorted curiosities decorating the drawing room into which they were invited. An odd-looking mirror with the frame adorned by what looked like crystals and mushrooms. A bookcase with strange volumes that no one had ever heard of. But he certainly seemed pleasant enough.

The bookcase by DICTATORSHOP is part of the Heritage collection and offers a choice of 10 woods and 5 metals for the texture as well as two different sets of rezzed items on the shelves. You can also leave them empty and rezz your own decor. The mirror by Blue Blood (for which I tweaked the reflection probe as I had trouble getting a reflection out of the box) and the suit by Pendulum are both available at We Love Role-Play, as always with a discount for the duration of the event.

I also picked up one of the latest hairstyles from No.Match, a braid in several lengths with a matching hairbase which comes fitted for both male and female avatars.
