In the Land Of Makebelieve Featuring Finesmith - Cordelia

Just about anything may be done by just about anyone in Second Life. Phillip Linden, the creator and original CEO created his world, he knew he wanted it to be a world that blended the fantasy of a video game and the reality of chat sites and social media. He also wanted to create a world where a viable economy would be developed and avatars could work in virtual space making and selling virtual items to earn REAL money.

The only limit I have in my Second Life comes in my own depth and breadth of imagination. I put on this feathered head piece, a most unusual mask of sorts, and my first thought was 'snowflake'. I could share a wintery scene and be one of the snowflakes. I don't like to rush my holidays, however, so when I found this setting, I knew I would be the fairy princess in a land where fairies existed and the trees talked.

Absolute Beauty in Ice from Rfyre

Words cannot aptly describe the sensation I had when I put on the new RFyre Ice Mesh Mini in Fur and the matching Victorian Ice Beaded Lace Ankle Boots.

This view shows the detail on the dress itself, and the fur at the arms and waist. There's an interesting neck piece that appeals to me because it's not the average necklace. Since it's hard to find unique anything in Second Life, when I see something like the collar on this dress, I'm ecstatic.

This photo, I played with artistically. The ice color plays against the skin in varied blues and whites. You'll note that the make-up I chose also had brilliant blue to enhance the overall look. I converted everything else to grayscale, so you could see the beautiful shades of  blue and white that make the dress and boots so incredible.

RFyre: From CINQUE - Raven Series Formal

Tons of talent appeared at CINQUE this past weekend from an array of designers around the grid.

When I saw this amazing formal, something far outside the realm of what most people think of when they think of dressing for a formal event, I had to get it. And wearing it was even more fun than oggling it at CINQUE's big display. On the whole, I felt like I was part of Edgar Allen Poe's "Raven" and I should be floating about SL - nevermore. Except that would be false because this beautifully constructed gown is just the first of many items I know I will wear from RFyre. Evermore should be my cry. Evermore.
