GROUP GIFT: Falling Into Fall@ COCO

GROUP GIFT: Falling Into Fall@ COCO

 

Can you believe that this dress is a freebie from the COCO UPDATE GROUP? It’s *perfect* for wearing with some boots and crunching through some leaves. It’s got an open back which looks very on trend, albeit a tad cold for the change in the season. There’s an entire wall jam-packed with freebies at COCO, so it’s definitely worth joining the group to check them all out.

Here’s your TAXI!

It’s starting to feel like Sweater Weather

It’s starting to feel like Sweater Weather

Yup, it’s time to get your jumpers out of the cupboard folks, because Autumn is fast approaching so it’s time to get cuddled up wearing your favourite sweater.  This one is already a treasured item of mine, it is just scrumptious! It’s from COCO @ FAMESHED and the texture and style of it are mouthwateringly good.  I love the fact that it’s tucked in at the front too, it looks very realistic indeed.  This is another of those times where I’m drooling after something in Second Life.  I’ve been looking for a jumper just like this one in real life and I cannot find it, ARGHHH!

To finish this look I’m sporting hair by FOXY and I’m still wearing my ‘Skin Of The Week-Blair’ because frankly I love it and don’t want to take it off! My cosmetic layers were a find from ANYBODY. Morgana Hilra wrote about this amazing palette from SHINY STUFFS at the event and she was right, it’s fantastic!

Kitty’s Raves & Faves: ‘Torsion Moon Clock’ by Candle & Cauldron

Kitty’s Raves & Faves: ‘Torsion Moon Clock’ by Candle & Cauldron

This weekend sees the beginning of the Fall 2017 ‘Spoonful Of Sugar’ Festival, supporting Medecins Sans Frontieres (‘Doctors Without Borders’)  The festival will run from Saturday, September 16th through to Sunday, October 1st, and promises to be an exceptional Autumn themed event.

One of this blog’s favorite Second Life brands, ‘Candle & Cauldron’ will have two fabulous items available for purchase. One is a fantastic ‘Night Magic’ Frame (If you’re a fan of the musical ‘Wicked’ you may find this hard to resist) and the other is this outstanding ‘Torsion Moon Clock’

I cannot get enough of this clock; it’s available in gold and silver finishes and features a glass dome covering a moon with witches circling beneath. The detail is great and the moon phases are completely accurate too, making this a very special piece not just for Halloween but year round. I’m completely in love with it!

I don’t have the details on hand for when the event opens or the location but as soon as I do have them I’ll update this blog post because you don’t want to miss out. Medecins Sans Frontieres perform such important work, and this is definitely an event that deserves our support.

Witchy Wednesday: Witch Season is Approaching!

Witchy Wednesday: Witch Season is Approaching!

I haven’t done a Witchy Wednesday in an age, but it’s back with great news to share. Guys,  I am so excited to tell you about an event that is still a few months away but offers so much promise and potential.  It’s called ‘Season Of The Witch’ and promises a ‘Dark Bohemian’ event experience, and if that doesn’t get those witchy juices flowing for you then I don’t know what will! I’ve been longing for something like this in-world for what feels like forever. Pinch me, am I dreaming?!

In fact, I’ll tell you what’s seriously impressed me about this event so far though, and it’s not just the theme.  It’s the fact that it’s  being so perfectly planned even at these early stages. So much is already going on behind the scenes to ensure the best experience possible, there’s already a Facebook page and a website to get you into the spirit of the event.  There’s even a Pinterest board and oh my days, it’s a veritable banquet upon a stick of witchy aesthetic goodness! Wanna know what’s even better? MEN ARE INCLUDED. Now, if you’re of a Pagan persuasion then you’ll probably realise that Witches can be male or female, it’s not a gender specific term.  However, a lot of people outside of our kind don’t realise this at all, they assume that a male witch is a warlock (erm, no, not unless they want to use that term) or even worse adopt a ‘Men can’t be witches’ attitude.  That’s not the case and it’s so refreshing to see that this is going to be reinforced at ‘Season Of The Witch’. 

You know what else has got me frenzied with anticipation about this event? There’s even a wonderful in-world office to go and visit, and if you’re anything like me you’ll want to live there.  Plus, if you join the group you’ll receive an information pack containing a wearable spellbook and a gorgeous pentacle to wear.  There is even a Spotify playlist too, see what I mean about planning? Hot damn,  this is how you make an event a success in-world!

Have I already said how excited I am? Yes, yes I have haven’t I, but to be fair they had me at ‘Dark Bohemian’.  I mean, just look at this list of ideas and possibilities for designers to choose from, doesn’t it make you drool? (And look at the list of names who have already signed up..I’m going to burst with happiness!)

Anyway, if you want to know more then check out the website and I urge you to look at the Pinterest board too.  Trust me when I say it is darkly magical in the very best way! IS IT OCTOBER YET?!!!! (No, Kitty, it isn’t)
