Tracing the Threads of History and Fantasy

Dutchie’s Performer Chair is one of my favourite ways of showing off a sexy outfit and it was a perfect fit for the Dance Set Lingerie from Grasshopper Street, which will be out at Midnight Order today with a 25% discount. This Flapper-style lingerie set comes fitted to GenX, Legacy, Maitreya and Reborn and includes a versatile HUD with preset textures and colours as well as tinting options. The set uses PBR textures for that added edge of realism, but fallback textures are also included. The style perfectly captures the Flapper look, conveying a kind of bold sexiness without being overdone.

Visions of Egypt

Visions of Egypt

A short and sweet one for today. Grasshopper Street’s release for We Love Role-Play in May is the beautiful Nefertiti Crown and their gift for this Birthday Round is a matching handheld mirror with Egyptian decorations. I found an Egyptian-inspired outfit—rather loosely inspired, admittedly—from Aurora for a previous WLRP round and wandered off to my little oasis to setup an evening scene with decor from Lore and Libertine.

Fantasy Faire 2025: The King’s Sword

Fantasy Faire 2025: The King’s Sword

A young maiden in disguise takes on a perilous quest, to deliver a king’s sword to its rightful owner. Her travels take her far from court and through many wondrous and sometimes dangerous realms, deep within the mystical Fairelands.

This absolutely gorgeous and well researched Renaissance-inspired outfit is a new release from Grasshopper Street for the Faire. The Prospero set is primarily intended for male avatars, covering a range of bodies, but there is also a Maitreya Flat version that works well for all Maitreya bodies as long as you wear the included alpha. It also works quite well on Legacy’s female bodies with a bit of additional alpha usage.  The HUD offers three different textiles, each with eight colour variations, and each section of the outfit can be coloured separately. Also available at the Faire are the velvet garters, these are sold separately for male and female bodies.

Uzme poses provides some of the best action-oriented pose sets around and for the Fantasy Faire they have out a set of single poses and two couple poses, all featuring swords. I had to tweak my arm a little for the first photo, as it sank into the clothing, but otherwise they fit me very well.

White Wedding

White Wedding

Grasshopper Street has a beautiful set of bridal veils and a tiara, plus a lovely mirror as a gift, at the current round of the Engine Room. The layered veil can be worn in different ways as it is available both as a whole linkset and as individual veils and the HUD allows for a choice of patterns for each layer as well as tinting options.

I didn’t have a dress that I felt suited the style of the veils, so I decided on a bride in lingerie (a beautiful set by alaskametro) for a very lacy and ethereal look that I felt would contrast in a really interesting way with the surroundings provided by the almost-empty Nautilus building by Fanatik, with just a few decor elements from DICTATORSHOP’s Heritage series. It also raises the question of what has happened here, especially when I added the puddles and water leaks on the floor, which is a new PBR set from Fanatik.  Unfortunately, there seems to be a bug in Firestorm so that the lovely reflections I can see inworld are not preserved in the saved image. But trust me, it looks fantastic.

The beautiful upholstered and tufted sofa from DICTATORSHOP has a very traditional look without becoming too heavy or oldfashioned. It offers 7 different metal options, 23 leathers and 9 fabrics, for easy matching with your existing furnishings. Its available as PG or Adult Vanilla, with over 400 animations.
