Lucky Arabella Wins The Prize!

 Do you like lucky boards?  I don't think it's a surprise to anyone that I LOVE them.  When I'm blogging, making vendor ads, etc, I see no reason why I should waste my SL time, so I'm usually standing in front of a set of lucky boards while I work.  Below, I'm patiently waiting at one of my favorite spots, Sn@tch.  Come on....give me a "C"!!  LOL.  (And, yes, I did win the dress!  Yay!)  Oh, yes, jewelry...In this post, I am modeling the newest release from ELEMENTAL JEWELRY, Arabella.  I actually started with the bracelet, which I think is the absolute best piece in the set, and everything else followed.  The set is divided into packages so you can pick and choose--A Necklace Set with a medium and long pendant which you can layer or wear separately, An Earring & Ring Set containing the earrings and left & right rings, and a Bracelet Set containing the left & right bracelets.  The jewelry is texture changing--gold or silver with 3 stone choices per texture set--#1 includes green Peridot, Turquoise, & Coral, #2 has Sugalite, Chrysoprase, & Fire Opal, and #3 includes Labradorite, Ammolite, & Unikite.  Above, I'm wearing Set #3 with gold & labradorite.

 In photos 2 & 3, I'm wearing Set #1 with gold & turquoise, and at the bottom, I'm wearing Set #2 with gold & sugalite. 

 You can find the Arabella Jewelry @ the ELEMENTAL JEWELRY mainshop.  This weekend, you can pick it up for a ridiculously low introductory price of 60L for each set!  And, while you're there, be sure to check out the hunts and group gifts.

Tessa In Wonderland...Or Almost!

I was doing the most recent Twisted Hunt, and I came upon a place called Almost Wonderland, a beautifully detailed place with an Alice In Wonderland theme.  If you drop in, be sure to go the whole route, following the rabbit down the hole, drinking the blue goop to get through the tiny door, etc.  Way too fun!  I'm also wearing a bunch of new, as well as some old items from my sl wardrobe.  The hair is a great new do from D!VA that is currently on sale at Collabor88.  You know I'm a D!VA fan, but I have to say this is one of the best I own.  The dress is a new one (at least for me) from Sn@tch, purchased at a bargain from one of the mob vendors.  I just bought the baby blues @ Mayfly Eyes, a new favorite.  And, of course, I'm wearing new jewelry from ELEMENTAL JEWELRY--The Dazzling Daisy Necklace & Earrings in blues and greens. 

I like this new jewelry.  It has lots of texture changing options...the metal can be silver, gold, or copper, the main stones and center stones change between 4 choices (3 color sets available--blues, greens, and reds), the daisy petals change between a sparkling silver, gold, and copper, and the little freshwater pearls on the earrings can be a white, blue, or golden pearl.  The blue stones include Blue Chalcedony, Blue Lace Agate, Blue Abalone, and Turquoise.  (Here, I'm wearing the blue set with blue abalone stones, and turquoise daisy centers.)  The green set includes Chrysoprase, Chrysocolla, Jade, and Maw Sit Sit (shown below with chrysoprase stones & Maw Sit Sit centers).  And the reds include Fire Agate, Red Aventurine (actually kind of gold), Red Sea Coral, and Rose Quartz.

Viva Italiano!

I really like pizza.  How can you go wrong?  Yummy, fresh-baked bread with tomatoes, basil, cheese...mmmm.  That's right, my favorite is the Marguerita pizza.  I was exploring Solaria, an Italian sim that you must go see, and I found this lovely cafe.  Well, I just had to sit down for some pizza...too bad it's made of pixels!  LOL.  After my delicious lunch, I took a walk around Solaria--there are lots of details to see, so I will certainly need to pay another visit.

Yes, I am sporting a new skin--did you ever think it would happen?  This is a League skin, and I think it's just beautiful.  I'm wearing a new top from Sn@tch, called Ultra Lounge.  It's a classic tank design, but with a dressier twist.  And it's perfect for showing off this new long pendant from ELEMENTAL.  The Drew Pendant & Earrings are available in 2 color sets--Darks & Lights.  Both are texture changing so you can choose from gold or silver and 4 different stones.  The "Darks" set includes green Maw Sit Sit, blue Jasper, Ruby, and Amber.  The "Lights" set includes some stones that will be great for your spring-time wardrobe--pink Rhodochrosite, green Peridot, blue Larimar, and yellow Aventurine.  I have the long pendant layered with a simple little Heart Pendant, also texture changing.  It can be gold or silver, and the heart can be plain gold or silver, or a bold green, red, blue, or gold.

Planning A Petite Wedding??

Let me apologize for the long post, but I have a ton of petite newness to show off this week--so let's get down to business!  This is a classic ELEMENTAL jewelry set--The Petite Chloe Pendant & Earrings--which is available in petite as well as "biggie" size.  The long pendant changes texture between gold & silver, and there are 3 stone sets from which to choose.  These first two photos show the "Neutrals" set, with Opal, Black Tourmaline, Silver Abalone, and Tortoise Shell stones.  Also shown in these photos is the new Petite Engagement & Wedding Rings set from PETITE ELEMENTAL JEWELRY.  I've been working on these for some time now, and I'm very excited to finally have them ready for release!  Shown here is the Yellow Gold Engraved set, but you can also get a non-engraved version as well as Antique Gold, White Gold, or Black Gold.  The diamond changes tint--Classic Diamond, Ice Diamond, Pink, Blue, Green, & Gold Diamond.  And, you can adjust the glow, shine, full bright, and transparency for various effects.  The rings are resizable for a perfect petite fit.  There are also plain unisex wedding bands available--engraved or plain--which are texture changing between the various gold colors.

Each set has a bonus--A "Show Ring" pose, because you just have to show your friends, right?!

Long Ago & Far Away

That's right--I've acquired yet another new dress from Sn@tch.  Isn't it too cute?  I have a fat pack, so I'll get plenty of mileage out of this one.  And the colors are perfect for the new Caliana Necklace and Earrings, above, from ELEMENTAL JEWELRY.  This is the set in purple, but it changes texture, so it's like a fat pack too!  There are six medallions and six semi-precious stones included, and it can be silver or gold.  The stones include blue, lavender, or peach moonstone, yellow sapphire, green turquoise, and pink rhodochrosite.  I really love vivid colors and geometric designs and this one really fits.

Here's another splash of color--the Rasine Necklace & Earrings in aqua.  This set is the same design as Caliana, but with six floral medallions in shades of yellow, purple, blue, red, aqua, and orange, plus stone and beads in blue chalcedony, turquoise, lavender sugalite, yellow aventurine, orange jasper, and fire agate.  You can find both Caliana and Rasine at ELEMENTAL JEWELRY:

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:

Alimah Visits Japan

I took a walk at Edo Japanese Castle, a role play sim in SL.  Now, I don't know about the role play, and I was kind of glad there weren't many people around.  But it sure is a pretty sim, and I had a nice time looking around.  I'm wearing a new top I got at Sn@tch.  (I know, I get many things there.  Well, what can I say?  Those fat packs of cute tops are great for jewelry photos.  And, hey, they have a big sale this weekend, so run on over!)  I'm also wearing the Alimah jewelry set from ELEMENTAL JEWELRY--there are 5 sets to select from, each with texture changing beads with 5 semi-precious stones to choose from, and 4 different ornamental beads (the large ones).  And, of course, you can make it silver or gold, resize it, adjust the glow, shine, etc.  Above, I'm wearing the Alimah "Neutrals" set in gold agate--this set includes blacks, whites, golds. 

And here I'm wearing the "greens" set--it includes 5 different green shades like the blue-green amazonite above, but also emerald, and yellow-green peridot, etc.  And, oh, I do love purple.  The set below is purple agate, but there are 4 other purple shades as well.  When you pop into the shop, you will also find a blue and red set.  Something for everyone and every outfit.  Here's a slurl to the mainshop:

An Autumn Walk In The Misty Mountains

When the leaves start turning in autumn, it's time for a walk in the woods.  Don't ya think?  I popped over to Misty Mountain, a perfect spot for such an outing.  (Isn't that a song by Led Zeppelin?  Misty Mountain Hop?  It's a great song, if you've never heard it you should look it up on You Tube.)  I just bought the latest hair from Truth, and I had to show it off, plus this week's new release from ELEMENTAL JEWELRY, the Amanda pendants and earrings.  This jewelry is named after my friend Amanda (aka Susan Branch) because it just looks like something she might wear.  There are three sets--Blues, Greens, and Reds, each with a central color theme and a couple of analagous colors thrown in for contrast.  That's right, it changes textures, from gold to silver, and there are 5 stone choices in each set.  The stones can be all the same color if you're feeling monochromatic, or you can mix and match as you please.  The colors show up great over a black top, and the "Reds" set will look great for your fall outfits--there are some beautiful red and orangy colors included.

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.

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!

Zelda Is At The New Elemental Jewelry Shop!

A few weeks ago, I was watching a movie set in the 1920's, and I noticed some of the beautiful, long beads that the women were wearing.  (You just knew that the jewelry always catches my eye, right?!)  This inspired the Zelda beads and earrings shown here.  They are available in three texture-changing color sets--"Pastels" (green aventurine, pink rhodochrosite, blue lace agate, and yellow sapphire), "Royals" (purple sugalite, green tsavarite, blue lapis, red garnet), "Tropicals" (aqua jasper, green jasper, fire agate, gold abalone).  The metal changes between gold and silver. 

You can find the Zelda sets at the ELEMENTAL JEWELRY main shop in SL--which, by the way has moved!!  Well, it didn't go far--it's next door to the old location, but it's much more spacious.  PETITE ELEMENTAL JEWELRY is now located in the old EJ spot, and it has also gained some floor space.  The petite shop isn't quite finished, but you should go have a look at the progress, check out the sales at both shops, and snag a few hunt gifts.  We are currently in the Twisted Hunt, Steam 7 Hunt, Nature's Hunt Miracles of Autumn, Harvest Moon Hunt (just until Sept 16), Darkling Hunt, and Big Things Small Packages Hunt.   Here are the new slurls:

When I first came to SL and started building a sim, one of the best garden centers I found was Antique Artistry.  If you have never been there, I suggest that you pay them a visit.  It's a beautiful place to roam around, and you just might find something you need to beautify your SL home or garden--and at very reasonable prices.  Not to mention that there are tons of places to take pretty photos!  In these snaps, I have on some great new hair from Truth and a new dress that I acquired by standing for a very long time in front of a lucky board at Sn@tch.  Didn't think that "C" would ever pop up!  Lol. 

I'm wearing:
Jewelry:  ELEMENTAL JEWELERY--Zelda Beads & Earrings.
Hair:  Truth Hair--Tristana--blondes.  Purchased full price.
Dresses:  Sn@tch-- Awe Shucks fat pack.  Lucky board prize.
Location:  Antique Artistry.

Ophelia

I'm feeling blonde today, and this new hair from Truth fits the mood.  I like how it looks just a bit messy, because who wants to wear sprayed down helmet hair, right?  I bought it in my well-loved browns as well, so I expect I will be getting a lot of mileage from this one.  Thanks Truth!  This is a new top as well--from Sn@tch.  I never seem to fail to find cute tops there.  And, the jewelry is a new release from ELEMENTAL JEWELRY--the Ophelia necklaces and earrings.  You can buy either gold or silver, and both come with texture changing stones with six chioces.  The silver set (below) comes with golden tiger eye, black tourmaline, blue violet sugalite, pink rhodochrosite, blue jasper and a light green emerald.  The gold set (above) comes with this aqua chrysoprase, a green peridot, purple agate, blue sodalite, red spinel, and white onyx.  That's pretty much something for every outfit!

Black Velvet

I like the contrast of combining black with bright colors and here are some fine examples.  Bright green and purple beads, green peridot stones, and black velvet corded necklaces--all layered together for a splash of spring color.  This is the Black Velvet Necklace & Earring set from ELEMENTAL JEWELRY, which is also available in pink rhodochrosite (shown below), and blue lapis lazuli.  You will also find a matching bangle bracelet in each color (see bottom photo).

A Walk Through The Isles

It's nearly St. Patrick's Day, so I'm in the mood to walk across the Irish countryside and snap a few pics.  I found a beautiful sim called Saerlaith and here I am standing at the very top of the lighthouse overlooking the isles.  This is a very well designed sim and worth exploring.  Also, I'm wearing some new jewelry.  I just couldn't bring myself to use shamrocks, so I decided to use another overused design--the celtic knot.  Well, knots may be overused, but I really, really like them.  Coupled with a bit of emerald green, I think they make a lovely St. Patrick's Day set.  Don't you agree?

I'm still working on my sl photography skills--of course, it's an ongoing process.  I'm open to constructive criticism--how am I doing?

And for the closeups--sorry, but the jewelry just has to be the focus for me.  That's some really nice skin and hair too.
