Swan Lake

When I saw this stunning Feather headdress and collar by Naminoke with it's deeply chiselled feathers, and deliciously jewelled tiara, the first thing that sprung to mind was one of my all time favourite ballets - Swan Lake. Available in black or white at SaNaRae, you really don't want to miss this.
Swan Lake
This gorgeously detailed Ballerina dress by Zenith available at Uber almost seems like it was designed to go with the Feather set with it's self coloured flowers and lace body making it a natural choice.
Another absolutely obvious choice is the Reverie leg wraps by fri. and available also at this round of Uber. I mean these fairly scream ballet to me.
The last detail I was to mention is the Mizu arm wraps by Vincue & Kibitz and available in a gacha at The Hentai Fair. I mean these were a no-brainer because they so completely match the leg wraps. The whole set is fabulous, but these arm wraps are unique as far as I can tell from my searches for similar before.

The Showgirl

I really wanted to blog the very fabulous Andrina jewellery set from Zibska for We <3 Role-Play, but every look I tried just wasn't what I wanted, so it got put on hold a few times while I worked on other stuff. Then I ended up with almost a week in hospital with acute Appendicitis. Coming home, I was sitting browsing Flickr and saw the amazing and beautiful Etoile headdress/mask by Terra d'ombrA and knew that was it. That was the look I was after.
The Showgirl
From there everything easily slid into place, it was just a matter of finding the pieces in my inventory. Some were buried treasures like the pasties, and chain belt. Others like this delicious pale Isidora skin from Essences were still brand new this month (I liked the skin so much I even took off the mesh heads I have been wearing since I got back to SL late last year).

The Lady Amalthea

One of my all time movie faves is "The Last Unicorn". So I was absolutely delighted when it was the chosen theme for this round of Enchantment.
The dress I am wearing is by !gO! and is actually from this round of The Fantasy Gacha Carnival, though it fits the Last Unicorn theme extremely well. It is a gorgeous dress that is equally at home with roleplay as it is with being a lovely summer dress you can wear almost anywhere. There is two versions, sheer, and not sheer. The "chains" around it also come in two metals, gold, and silver.
Amalthea
I am wearing it here with part of the fabulous "Unicorn" set by Naminoke available at Enchantment. The set comprises a very pretty, and feminine floral head wreath of daisies and roses in white, a forehead chain and flower ornament, a forehead chain and horn combination (not shown), and a necklace (not shown). The matching bracelets are the Hunt gift for the event.
Amalthea
Lastly, but certainly not least in any way is the Amalthea skin by Lumae, also for Enchantment. It is part of her new Eirtae skin range, and really is absolutely beautiful. It comes with almost any applier you could ask for, which is fabulous because you don't then have to go pay more to get the extras. I am wearing it here on the Alex head by LOGO.

Dragon Queen

Like I guess most people I just love dragons. So when I saw this gacha by .AiShA. at Fantasy Gacha Carnival I could not resist. It is called Dragonia, and has 3 colours, plus a gold ultrarare, and has 4 parts, plus rare head and rare legs both of which are colour change through a HUD. The one I am showing is called Drogon, and is a gorgeous red colour with gold accents. The texturing on this is fantastic, it looks like dragon scales.

The skin I am wearing is by Lumae, and is the first of her complete new range of skins. What can I say about this, it is stunning! This one is called Nightwish and is available at We <3 Role-play. (she also has a more human skintone as a group gift). It comes with almost every applier you could need both for body, and head. It also comes with the fabulous elf-ears you see here. The skin doesn't have any make-up so it makes an absolutely fabulous base skin for adding make-up to also.
Dragon Queen
The eye-shadow I am wearing is by Gret by Zibska, and is available at Uber. Appliers included are Lelutka, Catwa, plus standard tattoo. Personally, I am so pleased she now does Omega appliers so they work with my Logo head.
My hair is a great new group gift by Truth. It is a complete fatpack, and the style is fabulously versatlie.

Protected Innocence

I've always had a major love of all things fantasy dating back as long as I can remember. So every month I look forward to the new round of We <3 Role-Play. This month was absolutely NO disappointment at all.
This gorgeous, drapey, one-shoulder dress by Zenith comes with a colour-change HUD for 7 colours making it a great bargain. There is also a fabulously well-fitted leather Shoulder armour/wristguard, again by Zenith, that goes perfectly with it. Both are designed for Maitreya, but I've heard it will fit other avis, so best to try it on.
I teamed that up with these hard wearing solidly made leather boots from Wicca's Wardrobe also at We <3 Role-Play. They also have a colour-change HUD with  5 choices. I chose the plain pack, but there is also a plaid pack.
Protected Innocence
Another event that caught my eye was The Gacha Garden. Mostly because Glam Affair had a gacha for LOGO head appliers. They have covered most of their skintone range with the gacha. The "Seed of Inspiration" is the most popular tone "Jamaica", so if you are after that one, you will have to play the gacha 20 times (for a total of almost 2000L). But if you are like me and change skintone depending on what else you are wearing, or Jamaica isn't really your tone, this isn't an issue at all. And it REALLY is a lovely face.

In bows like a Siren she calls to me

Today I'm featuring this stunning outfit by Zibska for the inaugural round of ReVamped. The top is a bandeau, almost covered at the front by a giant bow suspended from a thick chain around the neck. The skirt is actually form-hugging high waisted shorts, with a skirt attached made up entirely of bows. Each individual part is colour change, with the bows on the skirt having 2 separate areas of colour to enable two-tone. The whole creates a visually eye catching outfit that will turn heads wherever you go.
