Here's Where I Got The Beautiful Hair...And Jewelry


At least once a week I receive a notecard from a customer wanting to know what this hairstyle is--it appears on many of my vendor photos because I enjoy wearing it.  It's really beautiful, isn't it?  (Actually, I was shopping one day and noticed a lady with this hair, and I just HAD to ask her where she got it.  Funny!)  It's Dina from Emo-tions Hair.  OK, now let's play a bit of catch up on the petite jewelry available @ PETITE ELEMENTAL JEWELRY, and, of course, it's all available at "biggie" ELEMENTAL JEWELRY as well.  Above is the Petite Adriana Necklace & Earrings in Lights--Peridot (shown above), Turquoise, Blue Moonstone, & Rhodochrosite, Silver or Gold, all in one texture-changing set.  I really like this set as it's a bit different, not a pendant or choker, more like a showpiece to set off any neckline.  It's also available in "Brights"--Amethyst, Spiderweb Obsidian, Amazonite, & Red Abalone. 


 I couldn't resist including this shot.  I'm at The Noble Storybook sim, a magnificent tribute to Beatrix Potter, and I'm standing on her desk!  How great is that for a little fairy?  Oh, and the jewelry--The Petite Kira Necklace & Earrings in "Cools"--Purple Agate, Sugalite, Peacock Chrysocolla, Turquoise, Blue Chaldedony, and Moonstone with Gold, Silver, & Black metal.  Also in "Warms"--Fire Opal, Fire Agate, Red Lace Agate, Amber, Ruby, and Red Italian Glass.  I have to tell you, this was a pain to adapt for petites.  LOL.  But, I think it was worth the effort.


 And, below, The Petite Lilliana Necklace & Earrings in "Classics"--Ruby, Lapis Lazuli, Onyx, & Maw Sit Sit.  Also available in "Lights"--Rutilated Quartz, Pink Opal, Chrysocolla, & Ammolite--and "Brights"--Coral, Blue Jasper, Chrysoprase, & Charoite.  This one is really pretty and quite versatile.  I've worn it with casual clothes, evening clothes, and when I'm a fairy. 


You can get all of the jewelry shown here @ PETITE ELEMENTAL JEWELRY and ELEMENTAL JEWELRY:

Petite Sylvain


I am sooo behind in my blogging!  It seems there has been an issue with uploading photos, and I've just figured out how to get around it until it's fixed.  I'll be playing a bit of catch up....
Here you see the petite version of the Sylvain Necklace & Earrings.  This lovely set is texture changing and comes in 2 lovely stone sets with 4 stone choices in each.  It's pretty much just like the standard size set in the last post, so I won't bore you with the details.   But, I do think I should have pulled out my fairy wings!

Coming up...
The new Chloe jewelry, and new Petite "All My Love" Engagement and Wedding Rings!

Petite Celeste



This is a small post about some very tiny jewelry.  HeHe.  I really like chainmaille jewelry, although I imagine that the real thing might get rather heavy.  In SL, of course, weight is not an issue, so I've made this lovely set that I named after my friend Celeste.  I flew over to Fairyland to snap some pics.  I looked at several spots, but I just can't find many petite places that I think are more lovely than Fairyland.  Above, I am wearing a dress I purchased at ThatChick Petites some time ago, but I just never found a set of jewelry to match it.  I think this fits the bill.  This is the new Petite Celeste set in Dark Aurora Borealis.  It changes texture between silver and gold, and 4 different "dark" stones.  There is also a Light Aurora Borealis set, pictured below.


I'm wearing:
Jewelry:  PETITE ELEMENTAL JEWELRY--Petite Celeste Necklace & Earrings, available in Dark or Light Aurora Borealis, texture changing.  Here's a slurl to take you to the inworld shop--

Petite Mesh Avatars--All Kinds!



You may not be able to tell it from the above photo, but I'm doing a zombie dance on  top of a grave.  LOL.  My friend Jilly sent me a landmark for Shrinkyween, over at the Shrinky Dink sim--they are really in the spirit.....ha ha.  I'm also modeling the new Petite Amanda jewelry from PETITE ELEMENTAL.  Yes, it's texture changing--and resizable.  Which reminds me--I went over to the Petite Kingdom today and picked up a demo of the Yabusaka Petite Mesh Avatar 2 because one of my customers wanted to know whether my jewelry would fit avi #2.  Well, that is a nice little avi!  It's figure is a bit more "human" compared to my little fairy self shown here, but you can get a fairy ear add on kit.  The face is just beautiful....I think I may need one.  In any case, the PETITE ELEMENTAL jewelry fits just fine.  The #2 avi is a bit taller, so you will have to edit and reposition it onto the new avi, but the fit is really good without any resizing--which means even the older PETITE ELEMENTAL items will fit.  I also tried a demo of the new Immortal petite avatars.  The jewelry fits them as well, but you will need to use the resizer to enlarge it a bit, and reposition it for the taller avi.  I don't recommend older PETITE ELEMENTAL jewelry for the Immortals--stick with the newer jewelry that has a resizer. 


As you can see from these photos, there are 3 sets of the Petite Amanda jewelry--Reds, Blues, & Greens.  Each set can be gold or silver, and the stones include 5 gemstone textures, which you can mix & match.  It's all on sale this weekend, so get it before the price goes up to the usual reasonable price.  Here's a slurl to the mainshop:

Petite Aurora



I wear this dress often when I am my petite self--both because I just like it, and because it's such a great vibrant blue to match up with jewelry.  It's from Just Winging It, a great little petite shop owned by Moonbeam Jillybean.  Jilly is relocating to the Carriage Trade sim, so you should go have a look.  Her dresses all come with matching wings, and they are all priced @ about 50L, so you can pick up several!  This is the new petite jewelry from PETITE ELEMENTAL JEWELRY, the Aurora Necklace & Earrings.  (You saw it last week for standard size avi's.)  I've had a bunch of folks im me to let me know they really love this jewelry, and it just makes me really happy to hear that they are enjoying it. 


There are 2 sets to choose from--The Dark Aurora Necklace & Earrings (shown at top), and the Light Aurora Necklace & Earrings (above).  This jewelry is texture changing, silver or gold, with 4 color choices for the aurora borealis gems, and 4 semi-precious stone textures for the beads.  Here's a slurl for the PETITE ELEMENTAL JEWELRY mainshop in Second Life (r):
http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Belle%20Island/231/66/23

It's all on sale this weekend, for 50L to 60L, so hurry on over before it gets marked up to the regular price.


I had to include a shot of this beautiful dress from Kastle Rock Petites @ Kastle Enchanted Petite Village.  I have this dress in several colors for my petite avi, as well as for my standard size avi.  It's very shimmery and comes in some gorgeous colors, some with a color gradient.  I happen to be at Kastle Enchanted Petite Village in these photos.  Spooky Mistwallow has done a great job on this lovely sim, and I think she is still working on it.  It is well worth a walk.

I'm wearing:
Jewelry:  PETITE ELEMENTAL JEWELRY--Petite Dark Aurora Necklace & Earrings, and the Petite Light Aurora Necklace & Earrings.  Texture changing.
Blue Dress:  Just Winging It--Blue Floral Faerie dress.  Purchased full price.
Green Dress:  Kastle Rock Petites--Silk Flower Gown in Seafoam Dream.  Purchased--can't remember if it was full price or on sale.

The Petite Goddess Athena



I'm showing off my newest petite dresses!  The one above is from a favorite shop of mine - Sn@tch.  (No, that's not a link, it's one of those automatic computer things.)  The two below are from another favorite..Kastle Rock Petites.  And...I'm at a new sim that is petite friendly...Kingdom Phantasia.  KP is a medieval themed sim, but everyone is welcome.  Look closely, because hidden in some groves of trees are some special petite places.

Well, after some tinkering on my part, you can now have the Athena Necklace and Earrings to fit your petite mesh avatar.  And it's texture changing!  Now remember, for petites it's a bit tricky changing those textures.  You have to swing your camera behind the avi, and zoom in in order to click on the earrings.  And sometimes you have to do the same for close fitting necklaces, although for the Athena you can just click the necklace from the front.  Petite Athena comes in your choice of gold or silver.  Each has texture changing stones.  The gold set has Ruby, Jade, Lapis Lazuli, and Purple Sapphire.  The silver set has Pink Tourmaline, Purple Sugalite, Turquoise, and Tiger Eye.

Here's the slurl for the new location of PETITE ELEMENTAL JEWELRY:
http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Belle%20Island/231/66/23

While you're there, be sure to check out all of the Petite Hunts going on right now.  There are tons of gifts or near gifts to be had!





And a photo of me standing in front of the new shop wearing last week's new petite release...The Zelda Beads & Earrings....also texture changing.  You will notice also that the necklace is a bit longer than most petite necklaces.  I've had some comments that it would be nice to have some for petites, so here you go!



I'm wearing:
Top Jewelry:  PETITE ELEMENTAL JEWELRY--Petite Athena Necklace & Earrings in gold or silver, with texture changing stones.
Bottom Jewelry:  PETITE ELEMENTAL JEWELRY--Petite Zelda Beads & Earrings--texture changing between gold/silver, with lots of stone textures.

Petite Floral Dream



It's been a while since I did a post with petite me.  I'm at Wonderoaks having a look around at this very pretty sim--it's truly a fairy wonderland.  I'm wearing a pretty new dress from Just Winging It and new petite jewelry from PETITE ELEMENTAL JEWELRY.  This is the Petite Floral Dream Choker & Earrings.  The sets come in gold or silver and each has 2 stone choices.  The silver comes in either amethyst (above) or chrysocolla (bottom).  The gold set comes in either malachite (below) or lapis lazuli (not shown).  I tried to make this texture changing like the standard size model, but it just wouldn't work.  You know I've mentioned before that it's difficult to click on petite jewelry to make the texture change.  Well, this close-fitting choker was impossible.  Sorry little folks!  But, on the bright side, it is available in 4 lovely choices. 


The Petite Floral Dream sets will be available starting this Friday, and 2 of the sets will be on sale.  The chrysocolla set is in the 50L Weekend Deal sale, and the Malachite set is in the Petite Shopping Spree sale for only 60L.

Here's a slurl to the PETITE ELEMENTAL JEWELRY mainshop:

Now, when you get there you will probably find a huge mess!  I'm in the middle of remodeling, so the shop building has been moved forward, and you will land right at the shop door, where you will find a table holding all of my current hunt gift objects.  By this time next week, PETITE ELEMENTAL and ELEMENTAL will have switched places.  More space for more goodness!

I'm wearing:
Jewelry:  PETITE ELEMENTAL JEWELRY--Petite Floral Dream Choker and Earrings.
Hair:  Diva--Diva 2 in rhodolite.  Group gift.

This Petite Oracle Will Make You A Vision!



I love purple, and I'm so glad I bought this beautiful petite dress from Evie's Closet.  If you have a petite avatar, you really must go over to Evie's and have a look.  Everything is very beautifully detailed, and the textures are glorious.  I'm also very excited about the newest petite jewelry from PETITE ELEMENTAL JEWELRY.  The Oracle necklace & earrings is one of my big avatar favorites, and I can't believe that I was able to make it small enought for my petite avi.  You are going to love this one ladies!  It's a very ornate silver set with several stone choices--purple agate, above, green maw sit sit, below, blue lapis lazuli, and red ruby.

My Petite Is Wearing A Bargain!



Well, fellow petites, the Petite's Shopping Village has moved to a new, larger location. (Can you guess where I'm standing?? LOL)  You may already know about the mall, but did you know that the grand opening is this weekend?  That's right--entertainment and sales!  That's a good thing!  The entertainment will be Saturday night at 6 pm slt, but the sale will be all weekend.  Not only is there the usual 45L Weekend Sale, but many of the shops at the new mall will have other sale items--those shops, including PETITE ELEMENTAL JEWELRY, will all be marked with a big banner.

Bewitched Blossoms Jewelry For Petites




Yes, I've managed to reduce the size of the Bewitched Blossoms necklaces and earrings to fit petites!  This is a single pendant, not a layered one--sorry little folks--but the gems are the same.  They have beautiful floral colors, and when you zoom in, you can see the blossoms encased in the gem.  For petites, you have the choice of blue hydrangea, pink orchid, yellow coreopsis, and red rose.

My Second Petite Mesh Avatar Post



Original post title, huh?  I'm back in my petite mesh avatar, and I'm wearing a new outfit that I just couldn't resist, along with my Petite Audrey Tahitian Pearls, earrings, and bracelet in green, from PETITE ELEMENTAL JEWELRY.  Here's a closeup:


The Petite Audrey Tahitian Pearls are available in several colors for petites:  Blue, green, pink, and violet.  If you look at the photo of the violet set below, you will see that I'm also wearing an extra pair of earrings, the Petite Crazy Daisy earrings.  They come in a fat pack with 4 sets of earrings, each with a different gemstone center--Orange Jasper, Green Turquoise, Blue Moonstone, and Pink Rhodochrosite.

Thoughts On My First Petite Mesh Avatar



I keep mentioning that I've been redesigning jewelry to fit petite mesh avatars, and you may have even seen some posts on other blogs featuring some of the new jewelry. Ta daaa! Here are some snaps of petite me.  I can't help but think these tiny avatars were just meant to be fairies, pixies, etc.--so that's what I'm going for.

This is the first set of jewelry that I redesigned for petite mesh avatars--the ELEMENTAL Petite Kaleidoscope jewelry set, with multi-colored semi-precious stones and a silver floral motif.  I like the earrings up on the tips of my little ears so they are more visible, but you could move them lower if you prefer that location.  I'm so cute!


(**Apologies in advance for my wordiness on this post--lots to say on this one.)
So, what do I think of the petite avatars?  I like them, but let me say that I've been stepped on a few times and once had a run in with a rather large cat.  Shame on you, kitty!  LOL.   It's great fun trying to make jewelry to fit petites.  But, I do quite a few texture changing pieces, and it is sometimes difficult to hit the earrings just right for the click.  I've found that the best way to get to the earrings is to angle my camera around behind the avi, zoom in, and then aim at the earrings.  This is true for clicking the texture changer, and it's true when you want to "edit" the earring and adjust placement.  I have not had this issue with necklaces.

The other issue with jewelry is that you usually can't just "wear" your necklace.  Most of the clothes for your petite avi will have things already attached to the chest area, so when you "wear" your necklace, part of your top vanishes.  Oops!  To work around this, simply "add" the necklace to your outfit rather than "wear".  You can also "add" extra earrings and wear more than one pair placed at different spots on the ears.

I have a few more shopping tips on clothes and hair below in the "I'm wearing" tab below.  You will need to be a very observant shopper to avoid some petite pitfalls.  In fact, I have placed my petite jewelry items in a separate shop to help shoppers avoid confusion.  (It's right next door to the mainshop!)

Slurl to PETITE ELEMENTAL JEWELRY inworld:
http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Belle%20Island/243/28/23

And brace yourself--you will have an interesting surprise when you switch back to your standard size shape.  You will turn into a big avi pretzel and think you've done something horribly wrong.  Don't worry--just relog and you will be fine.  However, I would suggest making the transition in the privacy of your own home. LMAO!

There is also a PETITE ELEMENTAL JEWELRY satellite shop at The Petite Shopping Village:

I'm wearing:
Jewelry:  PETITE ELEMENTAL JEWELRY--Petite Kaleidoscope Necklace & Earrings set in "bright".  (***Also available in "turquoise" if you prefer the classics.)
Avatar:  Mynerva petite mesh avatar made by Yabusaka--Cream. Purchased full price--is comes with the avi shape, skin, eyes, and a HUD to alter the colors somewhat.
Hair:  Wasabi Pill Monique Petite Mesh Hair--Blonds.  Purchased full price.  WP is making special hair just for petites. (***I have found that some of my regular size hair will downsize just fine--especially my Diva hair.  I've heard that Truth hair will downsize, but I haven't had much luck with it.)
Outfit & Wings:  Evie's Closet--Damselfly--Petites--Peridot.  (***Now, when you pop over to Evie's, be sure to notice that the petite items are on the low, round display.  This same outfit is on the wall right beside the petites.  I mistook the entire area for the "petite section", and purchased the "big" version thinking it was a petite outfit.  Had to go back and make a double purchase to get my petite decked out in green.  It's a bit confusing, and designers need to be extra careful with their signage so you know what is petite and what is not.)
Poses:  I'm sorry, I tried so many that I have no idea.  But my regular poses seem to work just fine with my petite avi.
