“Only you can make Cap’n Morgan pose look hawt” -Feles Seitan
Come on, I bet you’ve got a copy of this pose too ([LAP] – Captain Morgan), and now you have the perfect excuse to use it! “Pirates” is not the kind of theme I’d usually see myself taking on, but some of the RFL Clothing Fair items were just too good not to get. As soon as I saw the Black Rose Avatar on Tuli’s flickr I knew it was going to be a must-have, especially with the inclusion of 4 skins made especially for the set.
The skins are a combination of the Meredith and Natalie skins, in the Natalie exotic tone, with smoky eye makeup. You get both natural lips and ruby lips, plus a version of each with cuts and scars. I told Tuli that some of the cuts looked really gross, which imho meant she did a great job! I love that you get skins that would be appropriate anytime, and “novelty” skins. Even if you can’t imagine your inner pirate, the “Black Rose” skins alone are more than worth your donation.
I headed to the Tuli booth at the clothing fair today to help someone find it and was asked if 2500L really was the minimum donation for this set. It may be one of the highest priced items at the fair, aside from the auction items, but I dare you look at the list of what you get and say it isn’t totally worth it: 4 skins, a gorgeous shape (not worn but see it here), eyes (omg I love these!), hat/hair, pants, socks, boots, gloves, belt, sash, necklace and earrings, the sword, and SIX jacket layers each with different combinations of three tops: corset, bustier and long sleeve shirt. (the white shirt on Feles is not part of the set)
The Relay For Life Clothing Fair is a wonderful event all the way around. We get to purchase some fantastic items and see the proceeds go towards a worthy cause. Designers, I know it’s a ton of work and that it is mostly a labor of love but I’m sure I’m not the only person who spent just as much on non RFL items as I did on the special sets, so I hope there is a little something in it for you too.
If you haven’t been yet, don’t fear the lag, it wasn’t that bad, and the booty available is worth the effort!
Everything I am wearing is from the Black Rose Avatar set

Dove Swanson of Long Awkward Pose and Autumn Hykova of Pixel Dust have been working hard on their sim Festivale, a carnival themed sim complete with ferris wheel and carousel. Besides the shops, the sim has tons of great spots for photos whether you pose on one of the props around the sim or set down your own.
With the opening of her new main shop, Dove has some new pose sets available, and when El saw the poses in the Tongue in Cheeky Pose Set she knew they had to be hers. Then, with her new adorable poses, she she needed a new adorable outfit and checked out the shops on the boardwalk. The purple capris from SRU (um, that would be Skanks R Us? though these aren’t very skanky) were a must have. The color is perfect, the texture is rich, and I really like the bunched up sculptie parts with flexi ties.
The top, from Twosome comes with the bra, and matching panties too, on all layers. Included are also some flexi attachments like an itty bitty lingerie-type skirt and a baby doll attachment. In this shot above, El is standing at the entrance to the freakshow tent. The posters on the wall show images of conjoined twins and bearded ladies; there are bleachers to sit on, or… if you are feeling adventurous, you can launch yourself from a cannon.
Also from shops at the Festivale sim are the Izzy hair with beret from Pixel Dust and this choker that El just fell in love with from SRU. To see better detail, click the photo to get to my flickr page, and see “all sizes”
El was walking around looking cute… and then she came across some coveralls from Clobber/Dumpster. The PG rated version is unzipped almost down to her belly button; it is only by the magic of SL double sided tape that it stays up at all.
Then again, maybe that tape doesn’t work so well… I am so sure that these coveralls were made for sex but when El saw them all she could say was “oh man, now I gotta pee.” I ran off to make an appropriate pose for this but SL was being a bish and I couldn’t upload, so El just had to hold it.
Finally, we got our pose into SL and El ran down behind a stone wall to do her business. lol, ok, all juvenile humor aside, I really love the light in this shot.
Great job Dove and Autumn on a wonderful, fun sim. The landscaping is terrific, the environment is fun, and the shops are great.

The most recent hair newness from Magika has sculpted color change accessories that make me soooo happy. My favorites are Aye and Mon… a cute knit hat (with hair) Aye having one side braid and Mon having 2 braids. Click the hat for a menu and choose from 8 colors.
On Aye I especially like the way the hair in front pokes out and falls to frame my face. There is a little Magika logo button on the hats, and usually I won’t wear anything with a logo right out there like that but a) Magika is a brand I don’t mind promoting (um, duh?) and b) it’s mod, so really you can put any little design you like there.
This may be the first time I have photographed myself amd El wearing hats. Most of the time we like the hat but not the hair…or the hair but not the hat… or the hat comes separate but omg what a pain in the ass to mod hair to fit under a hat. Thanks Sabina for designing some hat hair that I totally love.
