* 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.

* 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 :)

Sometimes...

Sometimes I sit alone...

Sometimes I dance alone...

Alone doesn't mean lonely...

But sometimes I like it when people dial me up just to say Hi. :)

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!
