[ears and necks]

I can never resist buying stretched ears in SL, probably because I have them in RL, too, and want to check how 'real' they're looking, so I was more than pleasantly surprised and excited when I saw [Mandala]'s advertisement for their new release. Created from unrigged mesh, you can choose between 5 hole sizes, tunnel- or plug ears, 210 plug arts, 88 tunnel colours, 40 piercing- and 18 diamond colours - and all that in one pack! A HUD allows you to tint your skin, resize the ears and change between the different motives and shades, and there is also the possibility to pick if you're wanting to alter the left, right, or both ears at once. You can see some of the variants in the picture above. All taken together, it's a gorgeous piece of work and definitely worth its money!

After my ears got a new 'outfit', it felt like my neck was in need of a make over as well. And there's been so many opportunities to buy some truly unique and great jewelry lately! At the Cinema Event, for example, Maxi Gossamer is offering one of her stunning necklace sets, the 'Peaceful Love' Dogtags (shown on the left). Also at Cinema, and shown on the right, you can purchase the spacy necklace from .:* LOULOU&CO *:. called ::COSMOS::. And at The Mens Dept, KOSH seduced me with their Copeck necklace, which is available in three different shades of metal. A matching armband is available, too, so make sure to add these awesome necklaces to your jewellery folder before they're gone!

[i owl you]

Owls have always been amongst my favourite animals, but ever since I joined Second Life, this love has most certainly intensified - and since I'm apparently not alone with my liking and people keep creating the cutest items around our feathery friends, I thought it's about time to make a little owl-post.

I know that Collabor88 is still packed most of the day, but if you get the chance to get in, do yourself a favour and buy this stunning necklace from Maxi Gossamer! As you can see, it's definitely unisex and comes in the 3 lengths: long, middle and short - but you can also choose between the metal options silver and gold. And like that wasn't a bunch of great features already, there's also the possibility to change the colour of the gems, either to uni-shades or preset colour combinations. Weeee! I won't take this off anytime soon!

[vanimle sila tiri]

"Your beauty shines bright...",the dark-maned elf had whispered into Amaryth's pointy ear, and the tall-grown creature had no doubt that its mate's words were true, those softly uttered syllables in a tongue of ethereal beauty, like the sing-song of a butterfly's wings when it flew towards a golden summer sun. Praising his flesh, flawless and light like polished ivory, the keen curve of his blonde brows that reminded of the most precise elven bow, and his hair... straight, long tresses of silk spun under a pregnant moon's silvery light. His pink lips curled into a soft and affectionate smile as he placed one, slender hand on the other's chest, right above the heart, and the other over the subtly shimmering sun pendant that was dangling from his neck, held by a thin necklace of sumptuous gold - the gift he'd just received. Its reflections painted sparks of gold onto his immaculate skin and into the deep pools of his stunning, blue eyes when Amaryth leaned in and rubbed his cheek tenderly to the dark-haired's, his voice not more than an faint breath against a sensitive ear shell. "Amin harmuva onalle e' cormamin, melamin... I shall treasure your gift in my heart, my love."

The CHIC² Birthday Event is still running, and this time I'm introducing a piece of really breathtaking jewellery to you - the Lost Eden Sun Pendant from Maxi Gossamer Accessories. I'd often seen her stunning work at the Marketplace, but never dared to purchase it since I wasn't sure if it would fit a male neck as well, but this exquisite piece convinced me to have a try, and I wasn't disappointed. It's scripted to change size and - in this case - to swap between gold and silver textures, both of which are very detailed and a true feast for the eyes. It also comes in three different variants, a short one that you can see in the picture, a long one, reaching down to the middle of your torso, and a likewise long one that carries a slightly different pendant called Mini Orbit. No matter if you're in need to add a mystic touch to your roleplay adornments or want an eye catcher for your everyday-wardrobe, this versatile necklace has it all!
