The memory
of her nanny always made her smile. “You must be very careful, my sweet little
Ulla!” – she used to say, with a grave expression on her wrinkled face. “After
sunset, the woods swarm with the most dangerous creatures, people say... those
lucky who have lived to tell the tale, that is. They speak of six-legged
polecats that spit fire, birds with poisonous feathers, and...” – Nanny’s voice
was usually reduced to a hoarse whisper by now – “... there are ruthless,
walking golden statues, too, who will kill you in an eyeblink! Promise me you
will never walk in the woods after dark, my sweet child!” And little
Ullabellatrix promised.
Oh, poor
Nanny... she was a foreigner who never truly learned to know and love her
chosen homeland. Why didn’t she notice, then, that her ward’s skin was slowly
turning into a pale gold, as it customarily happened to the princesses of her
House when they approached womanhood? “... and I bet she never counted
Fuzzball’s legs, either...” – Ullabellatrix chuckled, then she whistled to her
faithful polecat, she patted the deadly feathers of the bird perched on her
shoulder, and began her night patrol in the wilderness.
The 2012 edition of Fantasy Faire is around the corner, and look at these beauties that will hit the shelves in a few hours!
Elvenbreath
by Selina Forder was among the very first fantasy shops I stumbled into in SL
as a noob, and now I have the pleasure to show you one of her exclusive FF
items, “Ulabeth”. It is a beautiful ranger/hunter outfit in soft fawns and
orangey golds, rich in elaborate details such as the medaillons on the shoulder
strap and the belt. The strap, the skirt and the boots come with a resize
script, so be you tiny or tall, you’ll be able to wear “Ulabeth” as if it were
your second skin.
Talking of
skins, “Beatrice” in Gold by Lerochelle Destiny of De La Soul stunningly
complements Selina’s outfit. I love the delicate tattoo pattern around the
eyes, and I only added a lip tattoo layer of my own because I’m too much of a
perfectionist, and not because De La Soul products need any correction. :) “Beatrice” will be available in other fantastic gemstone colours, too, of which
I’m going to show you some more very soon.
You’ll find
Elvenbreath and De La Soul on the “Shifting Sands” sim here, and here.
