Gift from Paris Metro.
Some parts are mesh.

This gift from Paris Metro is a nice use of mesh.  We're Phoenix users and there are only so many alpha bits we can wear at one time.  Consequently, I complain (mostly to myself) about mesh and grouse when I try to get on a V3-style viewer - and spend all my time crashing and relogging.  Gah.  And then we try to squeeze different avs into the mesh clothing and it either doesn't work or ... it's just lame.  So far the experience with mesh at Paris Metro (and G Field) has been good.  It's worth wearing shoes with invisiprims again. 

This week's group gift from The White Armory.

No worries so far about mesh and TWA.  Just one gorgeous gown after another.  Ho-hum.  Oo! but this one has wings!  There are fairies at the bottom of our garden - and they sure are overdressed!  There are little blings painted on the decolletage to draw attention to where the outermost edge of the areola might possibly be lurking but actually isn't.  What a nice touch and just avoids sluttiness (mostly by covering up the rest of the torso and all of the legs and arms).

Hee hee hee!

I'm tired of including slurls.  For heavenssake, just look it up in search!

Going All Fae

Angel almost living up to her name

Just when you think you have no room in your inventory for One More Medieval Gown but you'll drag yourself over anyway just to see what it is, The White Armory hands out this fairy dress.  One of the best things about TWA outfits is that each one is unique.  There isn't a cookie-cutter fairy dress available in 25 colors.  The colors on the hand-painted textures are carefully coordinated and, in this case, a delightful surprise.  Does the black unitard make Angel a dark fairy?  But what about the rose pink?  "Are you a good witch or a bad witch?"  Maybe this fairy is a little bit of both in this bewitching ensemble.

Fairies, Fashion, and Freebies!

Stylin' on the Stile

Lludmila likes a light and airy fairy touch, sometimes.  This silvery outfit, wings and all, is a freebie from Simply Fae.  I had never been to the shop before and was glad I went.  I poked about a bit more and found some fall headbands, also for free.
In the background is my home sim, Awen, which has many properties available for rental - if you don't mind one zombie neighbor.

Undead and a Little Bit Twee

 Lludmila as the Cabbage Fairy.

After a happy evening of ballet dancing at Grizzy's with DJ Kero, Lludmila went searching for some ballet shoes, but found some other things instead.  And when I say "she went searching for" I don't mean shopping.  Not having won any trivia recently and the depredations from Relay For Life have left few Linden dollars in the pixel wallet.  Lludmila wanted free ballet shoes.  The best she found in the free line were system shoes with prim ribbons at Pas De Deux, where she also got this free Jade Butterfly outfit she prefers to call "The Cabbage Fairy."   There were also 13 lucky boards going at it, set to five minutes.  You're bound to win something in very little time.

Lludmila in her Alice Blue Gown

A little later she ran across a new shop (to her), Tikisma that was having its own mini-hunt for this Alice gown.  It comes with some black and white striped socks (to match the fingerless gloves?) and black high heels, but if you want to you can wear some TESLA black mary janes instead.  The "Drink Me" hearts are easy to find, but hard to keep track of.  Most of them are numbered and in folders, but a few are in boxes that appear in your Objects folder.  I went crazy until I realized I had found all ten boxes.  This dress is very sweet (and might not be as long on a normal sized avatar - remember, Lludmila is only 4'8"), if a bit alpha-y.  

Side Note: Blogger has improved a bit recently.  Illustrations are being sized to fit the template of the blog (although the upload confused me at first because it works differently), you can have more than one

alignment

in the same blog (not being able to have left and center alignment in the same blog used to run me right round the twist), they can provide stats for each of your blogs (I have four on Blogger at this writing), and there's a true preview in a separate window so you can see what your post will really look like.  I don't know how long this will last.  I expect that as soon as we get used to having such nice features and change our minds about fully migrating to Wordpress or, say, Vox, Blogger will try to charge us for the upgrade.  How much u wanna bet?
