A Winter Solstice in the Mystic Realms is where winter and fantasy collide. Well over 100 vendors will offer winter-themed items including exclusives just for the event. Lose yourself in our magical shopping environment while looking for the perfect gift for someone you love, or for you!

And it is now open!

There are a few bits of information you need to know:
– For the first weekend, to create as lag-free an experience as possible for everyone we have a complexity limit of 75,000. Here’s how to lower your ARC:

    Detach all worn objects, HUDs and clothes, including mesh heads and mesh bodies. (Being invisible is chic!)
    Default to a system avatar (remove your mesh body, wear system clothes, etc.).
    Reduce the number of scripted objects you’re wearing (e.g. hair with resize scripts).

– For the best shopping experience, please use the Region Default Windlight setting

– Sponsors of the event are:

    Kaithleen’s
    Senzafine
    ZOZ
    AdoreZ
    Callista’s Corner
    EPOS

– The event runs from December 9 through December 19

1 Ballsy sm

I have taken a lot of photos in the last week. I mean, a lot, for me. Normally because work has me exhausted by the time I get home Monday through Friday, I rarely get into Second Life, so my weekends are catch up time for my blog. However, with two big events running right now – Vintage Fair and The Liaison Collaborative – I’ve been excited to shoot all of the beautiful items and have been pushing myself to go beyond the usual two or three photos I normally produce.

That being said, I still get a bit overwhelmed and sometimes resort to using my favourite location, rather than creating my own set. So yesterday, after having done three shoots already, I wandered over to Furillen to gather a bit of inspiration to soldier on.

Now, I hadn’t planned on using the billiard table when I arrived (in fact, someone else was there and leaning against it when I wandered into the room), but when he left, I scurried back down to claim my spot. I have done some serious (temporary) derendering in the room to create a more open space, but rest assured, all of Serene’s painstaking decorating will be there when I return.

This outfit just screams femininity. But one of the greatest attributes of any woman is to be able to combine her womanliness with a bit of the vamp. What says that more than an alluring pose on a billiard table? 😉

After the cut, I’ll give you a close-up of the hair, fascinator, necklace and bodice of the dress. They are definitely worth the extra look.
