At Court

I just tried the new Niran viewer - that is based on Kristen's. I love Kristen's. I've used that and come up with amazing results almost every time.
Better yet, it seems to be more stable  than Firestorm is for me. I get on average, 30 FPS with graphics on high.
Not to mention it looks pretty.

What I'm wearing:

Hair - Maitreya Siri - Charcoal

Necklace - ~Soedara~ Triumph of Ariadne Collar

Circlet - ~Soedara~ Dancer of 3 Moons Headjewel

Cuffs - Erratic - Gold Cuffs

Dress - Baiastice - Silk Burnout - Maroon

Girdle - Illusions - Ninya Girdle

The Crone

So in Westeros (The land that the Song of Ice and Fire is based in) there is a religion called "The Faith of the Seven."
Each one of the Seven gods and godesses lords over a certain aspect, that sort of makes up humanity. In my current RP - I've sent a knight on a quest to learn and experience each of those seven aspects. He requested to begin with The Crone.

I didn't realize it until after the RP began, but my character, a Princess, sent a knight on a holy quest. A bit cliche, but I'm actually quite excited about this RP. 

Anyway - The Crone is the Goddess of Wisdom and Guidance. Often depicted as having a lantern to help light the way. After I put this outfit together, I realized how crone-ish it seemed, so felt I should go ahead and blog it for ya'll. Maybe I'll do all seven. 

What I'm wearing:

Hair Flower - MOOD Pearle Blossom Headpiece - Bordeaux

Hair - CaTwA - Suzan - Espresso

Earrings - MONS - Indi - Silver (TDR Item)

Dress/Bangles - Emotions - Enya

Beyond

So as usual, I put together and outfit that I really liked, then thought "I'm going to play with this one."

And here you go, just me fiddling with color, actually. All I did was some threshold and contrast. First the original pic -

And this is with minimal touchups (Just getting rid of AV wrinkles, actually.) otherwise, this is a straight snapshot. 

Then I accidentally hit the threshold button, when I thought to hit the contrast. As Bob Ross would say, it was a happy little accident, because I rather like the image now.

Aaaannnd now we see the contrast darkened a bit. This was really just me playing around.

So what do you guys think? Would you rather I stick to straight pictures so you can see what I'm wearing, or do you like the artsy photoshopping?

What I'm wearing:

Hair - CaTwA - Yasmeen - Espresso

Flower - CaTwA - Yasmeen Flower - Right

Jewelry - Alienbear - Gold Mimmi Armband - White

Dress - Fantasia - Arianne - Green

I'll drink to that.

I couldn't sleep, and I was in a bit of an artsy mood after a long night.

Although this pic turned out much darker than I intended it too. Oh well. I'm tired. Full credit goes to Strawberry for this. She blogged this dress/prop ages ago and I've been jealous ever since!

So here's to the Ladies Who Lunch. I'm lifting my glass of cheap champagne at 5am to you.

What I'm wearing:

Prop/Petals - Tableau Vivant

Earrings - Mood by Jori Walters

Necklace - Parade Pearls - Mood

Dress - Ladies who Lunch - High Tea Gown - Rose

Makeup - Nuuna's makeup v7.5

Hair - Maitreya Siri - Charcoal

Song:

I like Orange.

There. I said it. I'm glad I got that off of my chest. Feelsgoodman.
I'm a pretty huge fan of orange - what I'm not a huge fan of is the orange you see in SL most of the time, where it's either so bright you want to stab people, or looks faintly reminiscent of baby poop.
This orange, however, is nice.
I think I did pretty well on the Dornish front, too.

What I'm wearing:

Hair - Maitreya Zoe - Charcoal

Neckalce/Earrings - Kunglers Extra Maasai - Tanzania

Cuffs - Erratic - Cuff - Gold (modded to go on arms)

Dress - Bare Rose - Minoan Dress - Orange

Snake in the Garden

So my character is a Princess of Dorne and modeled a little after Geroge R. R. Martin's character - The Red Viper, Oberyn Martell. She's got a little bit of Arianne Martell in her too, as well as some other bits and pieces thrown in for fun.
All that aside, it's been a challenge to create outfits for a character based on somewhat vague descriptions in books. Dorne has a very Moorish Spain/Middle Eastern feel to me - but it also describes sheer gowns of silk. Needless to say, it's a very wide area for interpretation. I'll be excited to see what it looks like in 3 years when the series gets to it.

What I'm wearing:
Hair - D!va - Diva - Onyx
Necklace - Serpent blanc et saphir angelas
Dress - Ayla's MM (From Cyber Monday) Maretch Gown
Skin - Glam Affair - Monica - Tan 03
Eyes - Glam Affair - Stella Eyes
Makeup - Damned - Tribal Makeup

Location: Westeros - Flea Bottom 

Draped in red brocade.

Yeah, I know. It's been entirely too long since I've posted here.
It's partially because I've stepped out of Gor - so what's the point in blogging things I don't wear? Well, I've had enough requests from current roleplayers to show off my outfits.

Right now, I'm playing in King's Landing - The Red Keep. The RP is AMAZING. There is so little headache, almost no OOC problems, and everyone is wonderfully mature in helping bring this setting to life.
My character is a Princess of Dorne (Note, this is where I would normally geek out and tell you all about it, but for now, I'll just say - Pick up a copy of A Song of Ice and Fire by George R. R. Martin and see for yourself.)

I didn't do any post-production on this pic, because I also wanted to show off how nice the new Firestorm release is. My FPS is a bit low with all the picture settings on, but I can easily run with shadows, as well as wear mesh - and still roll in at about 20 FPS.
It's still no Phoenix, but for now, it'll do.

What I'm wearing:
Hair - Maitreya Siri - Charcoal
Head Jewel - Mashooka - Royal Rajput - Gold/Ruby
Necklace and Earrings - (PixelDolls) Contessa set - Gold/Ruby
Dress - (PixelDolls) Tropico - Ember - MESH
