Angels & Airwaves

Hello hello from Cloud 9! Well from a cloud anyway. haha I hope everyone is doing well. I’m excited to share with you this gorgeous Lucky Letter Board dress from Apple May Designs along with a beautiful group gift hairstyle from Opale. I took the photo from the back because I felt like the back of the dress and the back of the hairstyle were quite nice. I love the long understated black bow detail in the dress. I also thought the little wisps of hair in the back of this long hairstyle were a nice touch. Keep reading for the details on how to get each of these fabulous finds.

The Hair – The hairstyle Pru is wearing in the above photo is Sofa by Opale. There is a free group gift version of Sofa at Opale that includes 3 color versions. There is a blonde, a dark blonde, and a brunette color with the pretty pink and blue color fades. At this time the Opale group is free to join. The Leo hairstyle shown below is another free group gift currently available at Opale. I also saw two group gift headbands.

The Dress – I think this sweet slip of a dress by Apple May Designs is really pretty. There are two ways you can score this dress for free or very inexpensively. Apple May Designs group members can participate in the Lucky Letter boards. There are two, one for each of the colors shown in the ad below. If you don’t want to wait for your letter to pop up and have a few lindens to spare, AMD group members can also purchase this dress for just 49 linden. There are also previous AMD group-only specials available at that price, just be sure to wear your AMD group tag. There is a one time join fee of 25 linden if you are not already a group member.
Sizes Included: Maitreya Lara, Slink Hourglass, Belleza (Isis, Freya)

P.S. Like the wings? They are simple yet beautiful mesh individual wings by Corvus that you can pick up on the Marketplace for just 45 linden. They also come in white!

Bang Bang, She’s an American Gothic

People living deeply have no fear of death. — Anais Nin

I started out on the Watercolors in the Rain Hunt where all the hunt gifts were FREE and found the “Eye of Delusion” necklace below (the main center eye actually moves within the pendant) and knew I had to put together a look. It stirred something within me. A bit of the old goth child, perhaps… who grew up writing dark poetry. If you live deeply the idea is that you see the world in such a way that you understand things and do not need to fear death. Perhaps this Eye will give you more insight… personally I liked the look either way!

I am ready to meet my Maker. Whether my Maker is prepared for the great ordeal of meeting me is another matter.  — Winston Churchill

My next stop was the Fantasy Collective. Good ol’ Winston Churchill couldn’t have done better as far as preparation. Be sure join the group FREE and collect your Fantasy Collective Birthday gifts while there (hurry the event won’t last forever). I stopped by the Valentine E. Booth and nabbed this fabulous FREE Bang Bang Bullet Bracelet in Black. The resizer script makes it versatile enough to wear as I did… or as an armlet, headband, garter and more!

Though there were a ton of great goodies I am only showcasing a couple here for you. The other item I picked up for my dark and moody Gothic look this Sunday was American Beauty‘s Black Bralet Top. Again, a FREE gift at the Fantasy Collective and better yet, mesh in all the standard sizes.

My last stop was at Corvus. Long known for Gothic and vampire wear, I knew the store would not let me down for finishing off my morbid tastes this week. I managed to nab this caustically classic Black Combat Shorts for only 60L and they are mesh in all the standard sizes. A fabulous finale to round out my outfit.

See you on the flip side!

Oooo another quickie from me! Argrace has sent out a new welcome gift through their Susbcriber Group! If you are already a member you will have got the update automatically so check your inventory.. if you haven’t got it then skip over to the store and slap the group joiner on the desk. The gifts are also on the desk, touch the boxes to recieve them once you have joined the subscriber. One is a unisex version of the hair I am wearing called Minato and the female version called Sakura. The only real difference between the two is that Sakura has the little colour change hairclip on the side! The Unisex version does not have this so that makes it suitable for guys.. it is a fatpack of colours so you will have lots of choice!

Edited to Add.. I’ve been informed it is an older gift that was resent and Love featured it in her mahoosive free hair post here!

My Jacket is a L$10 offer from SUSU that is available at the True Fashion Times event. There is a male L$10 offer there too so grab your guy friends and take them with you!

The perfect Fall day

Theres nothing I love more on a cool Fall day than to go prancing around in the leaves in the forest.. the sound of them crackling under foot, the rustle as you kick a little pile of them and watch them floating around.. the musty smell of wet wood and foliage and the sight of the crisp sunlight streaming through the gaps in the trees..

The new Group Gift @ Foppish is perfect for these long walks. Teamed with the snuggley warm thick tights that I sneaked from the Halloween Freebie Outfit from G Field, I can just about get away with going topless underneath the jacket.. well.. if I get too cold, I’ll zip it up? Right?

Though since shaving my head I really should invest in a new hat…
