* Pictures must have full permissions and be delivered in a notecard with "Leaf Couture Photo Comp Entry [YOUR NAME HERE]" as the name of the notecard. The notecard will then be submitted to the mailbox at Studio Sidhe Main store (look for the snail!).

***Entries Submitted directly to Faery Sola will NOT be accepted***

* The last entries will be collected at Midnight SLT time on the 12th of January, 2011.

* Entries can be either edited using 3rd party software such as Gimp or PhotoShop or unedited. Please be aware that the judges understand that a good photo is not dependent on what software you may or may not use.

* The Judges decision is final, please keep it friendly and support your fellow artists... please no "John McEnroe" like tantrums in any public forums such as plurk, blogs, etc. Such behaviour lacks decorum & takes some of the shiny off the fun for everyone...But also; you won't be accepted into any future photo competitions by this store.

* Winners will be notified.

* HAVE FUN!!!! :D

Enjoy!

~Faery Sola~

P.S. I'd like to send a special thank you to three ladies... Hibiscus Flossberg and Veronica Ogleby who gave me the idea to hold a photo comp after plurking some lovely pics they'd done of themselves in their dresses, and Jenica Landar... the lovely lady who kindly allowed me to use the wonderful picture she made for her blog post in the poster for this event. Thank you Ladies! *hugs* :D

My Turn!







Pull up a chair... now. If you haven't heard already I'll fill you in... there is a little bit of fun going on around the grid... it involves a very special limited edition release from Studio Sidhe.

Limited edition is pretty special right? yup. Lovely stylish and elegant evening dresses, in a variety of 6 colours... each with 3 skirt options and a Caged Lacrimose Pendant to go with, and only 500L... Sound good?

Yes?

YAY!

NOW! for the fun part! :D

There are few differences... (BOMBSHELL! it's me after all! LOL)

I've put one of the dresses at a different Studio Sidhe location around the grid! :D AND! cause I'm totally thrilled with this dress, a version of which I made for the Call for Couture event earlier in the year... I thought I'd invite some wonderful bloggers to help me show you these dresses with their own distinct style and flare.

I asked each blogger to feature one colour of the dress, and gave each the location where you can find that particular colour at. Don't worry, it's not a hunt... just click on the links below to see the beautiful work of these amazing ladies & get the location for that dress :D

GREEN - Phire Zhura - Style Genesis
RED - Kika Starbrook - For the Love Of...
PURPLE - Strawberry Singh - StrawberrySing.com
FUCHSIA - Ailinn Grizot - She Blogs
BRONZE - Jenica Landar - Hey Girlfriend
BLACK - Freyja Nemeth - Old Fashioned

I'd like to say thank you to the lovely ladies who put their hands up to be a part of this. You've all been brilliant to work with and I am in awe of your you're beautiful pictures! Everyone... go see their pics, they're awesome! :D

Enjoy!

SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALE....ZOMG! Faery is doing Summer Cleaning!!!!





If you've followed the mad capped goings on of Studio Sidhe and the crazy faery behind it all, you'll know that this really *is* a moment when in years to come people will ask you:

"Where were you when Faery Sola announced she was going to try organisation?"

In order to do this I've set up a discount area where the clothes and "does not fit elsewhere " section was, and have set everything insane prices from 1L - 60L in that area. Not everything will go away forever, but most will... I'm using this as a way finding out what kinds of stuff you guys like (things have changed a lot in the last 4 years), so I'll know more in a week or two :D


The sale will however be done by New Years and the stuff destined to be ditched will disappear forever from my store... so if you've been hanging out for something in the store, come and check it out. There are clothes, jewellery, poses, wings and um other stuff that I will probably add to it too LOL.

Enjoy!

~Faery~

P.S. Please do look under the christmas tree... a lovely idea started by Alia from Falling Gods Inc :)

A Beautiful Unicorn to Celebrate the Grand Opening of a Beautiful Sim



This weekend a wonderful Grand Opening is taking place at the magical sim of Enchanted of Elven Realm.

I was approached by the lovely SeleneLily Galicia some weeks ago who asked me if I could make some unicorn poses for the sim that features unicorns... my interest was piqued, and after visiting the sim and meeting the delightful owner, Nalalie Montagne, I decided to make a unicorn pose prop instead! :D






I've made a copy version and a trans version and both are available at Enchanted for the grand opening at a special introductory price!



Also, 20% of all Studio Sidhe sales from the event will go to the Friends of Animals Fund! :D

Please come and show your support of the beautiful sim, participate in the photo contest or even in the poetry contest! :D You can win some awesome prizes and you can see some other amazing stores like Fallen Gods Inc and Simply Fae! You're sure to have a ball...

Enchanted of the Elven Realm

Hope to see you there,

Enjoy!

The Merry Satyr Comes to Studio Sidhe! :D



Well hello there! :D

You noticed that I've dropped my wings and picked up some awesome new Digi Legs from Gauze did you? LOL Never fear! I'm a modern Faery, I have detachable wings and have them safely tucked away.

Now! What about these legs!?!

Aren't these the most amazing Faun legs you've ever seen? Awesome is what Yukio Ida, amazing creator behind Gauze does, she was after all the person behind those mindblowingly brilliant Mer Avatars.

When Yuki sent me the legs to crash test I was jumping around so excited and immediately got a gazillion ideas for poses to go with them. Luckily I was able to catch a few of these ideas and create them before they flew away again!



I made both a multi-pose prop with three Merry Satyr poses. This is of course menu driven with adjustable pose positions. The stump also comes with wearable Pan Pipes as well as a set of pipes for you to rezz that will give your friends a set of Pan Pipes too! :D



Next, I made a set of five single Merry Satyr poses which you can purchase separately or buy as a set [see below]. You also get a set of wearable Pan Pipes to go with the pose, if buying single poses, don't forget to get your pipes from the Pan Pipe giver near the stand :D



You can find both the Digi Legs (which also come in fantastic demon varieties) and the Merry Satyr Poses at both Gauze @ Twilight and Studio Sidhe Mainstore

You can also find the poses on the Marketplace.

Until next time,

Enjoy!

P.S. Also don't forget the Call for Couture Festival and Auction!!!!

Studio Sidhe takes up the Call for Couture!

UNTIL NOW! :D

You know I like to keep you all on your toes, right?

Below is the Blue Emerald Leaf Couture limited edition gown which includes the Caged Lacrimose Pendant (I decided that jewellery had to play some part in this creation as it is after all what I normally do!). These are currently up for auction! This auction is the only way you'll be able to get this gown... you can go and place your bids HERE. 50% of the proceeds go to the Samaritans.



Below is the Pret-a-Porter version of the Blue Emerald Leaf Gown and is being sold at the Call for Couture Festival HERE.



The ready to wear version of the gown comes with two skirt options; cocktail and ankle. The gown also comes with the Caged Lacrimose pendant.

I hope you enjoy my first foray into the world of frocks! *cough* sorry, couture!

*puffs out chest proudly*

Enjoy!

P.S. Huge thanks go to Aeon Perian and Tamzin Xigalia for their awesome photography for these ads *hugs*

Euphoria @ Studio Sidhe

Hullo!!!!

You might recall a jewellery series I started ages ago called the Happy bead collection? I've just gone & found the old blog post to find it's nearly 2 years to the day! LOL spooky. See HERE & HERE.

So it's been AGES, but they've remained favourites in my store and I still like my happy beads so YAY! But almost since the day I released the happy bead collection I've had people asking me to make anklets as well.

Of course me being me, I put it on my "to do list" which pretty much resembles a list of "things to do at some point before I die" LOL But I do generally get around to things... I just have to be inspired to do them!

I HAVE however finally made them! and I've combined all the requests by making Euphoria anklets :D (yup, had to get a happy name in there to go with the theme ;))

I proudly present:








Available at Studio Sidhe
Xstreet
SLink

Each pack comes with three different builds to suit SLink prim feet in the styles:

* Jolie Pied Low
* Jolie Pied Medium
* Jolie Pied Tiptoe

Why specifically these feet?

Because they're the ones I wear. Please be aware that if you are wearing them with other prim feet that may use larger invisible prims than the SLink feet the beadwork may be eatten by alpha clash. Please also note that they are not made to go with Pivoting feet.

You can purchase SLink barefeet at either Studio Sidhe mainstore or at SLink.

You can also find the matching necklace, bracelets, navel piercing, earrings, and bead belt to go with your new anklets in store or xstreet.

Until next time take care,

Enjoy!
