Strange Pixels

I set out to create an “autumn fairy” ensemble, for a pinup calendar I’m taking part in.  (I’m Miss. November, if you’re wondering.)  So there I was, trying to think of where to begin, when the notice for this new Autumn Leaf Headpiece from Evie’s Closet falls into my lap.  Eureka!  And what do I see immediately upon rezzing?  This lovely fairy outfit in a variety of colors!  (I picked the red because of the Autumn color scheme, but it I was sorely tempted by the other colors as well.  They’re all quite lovely.)

Never has a themed shoot worked out so perfectly!

I love this set because of all the options, and I’ve tried to show most of them to you here.  Clothing layers from risque to modest, 4 different skirt styles, and a matching pair of wings.  The wings I’m wearing are not the ones from this set.  I chose a pair from Seven’s Selections because of the finer control they give me over animation, size, and flexiness.  However the matching wings are perfect, so I don’t want anyone to think I’m not wearing them because I didn’t like them.

Munchflower has released a line of Equinox skins at Nomine that are just too adorable, with a sprinkling of freckles across the bridge of the nose.  They come in a whole slew of lush makeup colors, and of course I’ll be showing more of them here in future posts because Munch is my skin goddess.

This leaf jewelry set from Shiny Things is an old favorite of mine, and I was very pleased to find out that my SLink feet could be worn with the matching anklets.

(And if you’re interested to see how my pinup turned out… *ahem* I ended up not wearing very much of the outfit. >.> )

I stood upon the hills, when heaven’s wide arch
Was glorious with the sun’s returning march,
And woods were brightened, and soft gales
Went forth to kiss the sun-clad vales.
The clouds were far beneath me; bathed in light,
They gathered mid-way round the wooded height,
And, in their fading glory, shone
Like hosts in battle overthrown.

-from Sunrise on the Hills by Longfellow

Achariya  and I  put these outfits together a while back for a photo contest, and they were just too perfect for us not to share here as well.

Mirror images, corrupted doppelgangers:  Acha the blonde waif in white and gold, shining with pale luminescence;  Mourna the raven-haired darkling in black and silver, the evil twin.
