- Okinawa Summer Festival 2015 -









Okinawa Summer Festival, the Japanese most famous summer festival is back this summer in Second Life! The event was established in 2011 and ever since it takes place annually. This year 50 shops are participating, most of which are either Japanese or Korean. Shops from other Asian countries can also be found.

 

Asian SL designers are very popular. Many of them have made quite a success and run big stores while others, even though they are so talented, are not well known and run small but really unique shops. Famous, or not, personally, I am very fond of Asian SL designers. Being a Western girl, I find that Asian designers bring something new and different in my SL experience. As such, I definatelly recommend you to visit Okinawa Summer Festival as it's a great opportunity to discover some real treasures!

 

In this post I'm showing LuJiu dress and accessories by Cila, Rain Arch - Green Eyes and Cygnus nail polish by Pulcino which are available at Okinawa Summer Festival. The event runs until August 24th so you have plenty of time to visit it.

The Instruments is under way and I'm sure that event goers love the spectacular releases that are showcased in this special round. Why is it special? Because this July, The Instruments celebrate their anniversary!

 

Modern Couture is offering Pearl D'Fiori, a romantic gown of excuisite beauty in 4 pastel colors: lilac, blush, jade & nude. The floral pattern and the pearl details are so pretty, but what makes this gown really outstanding, are the butterflies that can be attached on the upper part.

 

I'm also showing a few more releases which are available at The Instruments: Yeri Nails by LUNA Body Art, Syzygy poses by NanTra and the Diamond Tables set by Fiasco.

- Lace Princess -

Hello my dear readers!

 

I have so many things to show you in this post!

So... Let's start!

 

Hair Fair is finally here and Ayashi is participating with 3 exlusive hairstyles, all of which are cute and girly.Today I'm showing Miko hair. 20% of the profits for every hairstyle that you buy goes to Wigs for Kids charity. So, it's a good time to buy new hair as you assist children who are in need of your help.

 

Now, about my outfit...

 

Cila has done it again with another cute fantasy release! I'm talking about Doris - Lace Princess which is available at Oh My Gacha! Doris is such an adorable outfit! <3 <3 It consists of a coreselet with diamond buttons and a girly skirt. Both the corselet and the skirt have lace details which are so well made that they look very realistic! Doris can be found in 8 common color sets, 2 RARES, a Dark Royal set and a Light Royal set, and an ULTRA RARE Bloody Royal set.



 

Doris inspired me to complete today's look with a bunch of fantasy accessories that I got from all over the grid!

 

My first stop was at Persefona's which offers a wide variety of hair accessories. I got Jenny Wreath in Pink.

 

I also stopped at Genre where I found the incredible Spangled Halo by ~*Souzou Eien*~.

 

FashionTropic event by iNOVARE magazine is still on. Moondance Boutique offers a selection of flower accessories. Here I'm showing one of them, Plumeria Bloom. I'm wearing only the necklace but the set includes earrings and rings as well.

 

All these fantasy accessories look great with Doris set but I also needed a fantasy make up to complete my look. I'm wearing the eye make up set It's A Sin (eye shadow and brows) by The Wicked Peach. As you may remember, The Wicked Peach used to have a mainstore in a land with a few other stores. However, a couple of weeks ago, The Wicked Peach moved to a new, exclusive sim. It's now set in a beautiful forest with lots of flowers, trees and sunlight. You should definately visit it! The sim is also good for photography! :)

 





 

My romantic Rita heels are by DE.Boutique and you can purchase them at this round of Designer Showcase!

 

As for my lovely, sparkling nails, they are a new release by Hello Dave and they're called Vanity. The HUD includes both bright and light colors. They're so pretty, aren't they? <3 <3 <3

- Tropical Blue -



I'm not going to lie. I'm genrally into pastel and light colors, but I really love these bright tropical creations! FashionTropic opens on the 7th and you can expect lots of wonderful designs in tropical patterns.

 

Today I'm wearing Kalama - Lau Hau, by Dead Dollz. This dress is one of my favorites so far from FashionTropic. It's an adorable mermaid skirt with a long sleeve top in a yellowish and sky-blue color combination and sparkling details.

 

I matched the beautiful Kalama with Plumeria Flower Hair Piece by Poute and Vitamin C nail polish by Tashi, both of which will also be available at FashionTropic.

 

My long hairstyle is a new release by Truth, Celeste. I love Truth's hair especially when they come with accessories. The headband is included in the hairpack and you can change its color. A version without the headband is also included.

 

I really love how this look came together. It's very summery and tropical so I headed to one of my favorite seaside locations to take my pictures. Fortunately, NanTra had just released a new pose series, Beach Illustrated which were perfect for my shooting! Beach illustrated is available at Designer Showcase. <3

- Dear Elena -

Hello everyone!

 

As I have already told you, the last few weeks I had to stay away from Second Life due to some Real Life health issues. Unfortunately I missed a lot of events and some amazing new releases.

 

Here is a post with some of the designs that have been released the last few weeks. I checked my inventory, picked up some of my favorite releases by Truth, Cila, and Fashiowl Poses, and I combined them to create an adorable fairy-tale look.

 

Katara  by Truth, Elena by Cila and the Magic Potion by Fashiowl Poses, simply make me dream of another land with princes, princesses, magic, beauty and love! <3
