Pirouette Photographic Contest!

Hi Everyone,

If you haven't already heard, Studio Sidhe together with Evie's Closet is holding another photographic Contest!!! :D

For full information touch the sign in store at either Evie's Closet or Studio Sidhe. Entries close on the 4am SLT on the 31st of January, 2010.

There are of course two categories for this contest; Unedited & Unedited. We do this so that everyone can join in the fun and we acknowledge that photography in its own right is an art form. So whether you are a dead keen Photoshop/Gimp enthusiast or mad shutter bug, this is the contest for you! :D

Evie and I can't wait to see what you do with our creations... but we know whatever it is, it will be fun :)

Enjoy!

Revolution anyone?

Revolution! A time of change, often scary, but! The energy of revolution, the passionate dialogue, the shear power of getting a whole body of people together to speak with one voice, everyone bringing their experience, expertise, ideas and dreams to the table... everyone acting for a common goal, with hope for the future... amazing stuff!

I am in my own small way, a part of such a revolution, to sit in and participate in discussions with people equally as passionate on this subject as I am, is heady stuff, you just can't help but feel energised... a feeling of being in the right place at the right time... WOW. A true high, and one that I hope I never come down from LOL and THIS is what inspired this pose set, everything I want to say, but said in pixel body language heehee



The second release is something I started well over a month ago, piece to work in with all the Christmas stuff going on.

And lastly...



YES! the Lucky Dip is back at Studio Sidhe!!!!

AND even better, those two new releases are in with prizes :D Please note though that the pose set has been split into two prizes, so you get four poses in one of the pose prizes. Six prizes in all, and for only 40L a go :) If lucky Dips aren't your thing, then you can also buy all the items in world =D

The lucky dip & new releases can be found at Studio Sidhe main store or you can get the pose set in it's entirety on Xstreet.

Until next time,

Enjoy!

Back in Black

Hi everyone!

Yeah it's been an AGE! Well it feels like that... RL has been crazily busy, but finally I'm Back!!! :D

For my first post back, I have a bit of a combo deal, it's a fashion blog BUT it's also to announce my new release... weird? well yeah, I'm a content creator that does on occasion do fashion blogs, so am combining the two here LOL Why? because the new release I was set to blog, inspired me to make some hand chains and gloves to go with it ;)

Okay, so on with the outfit!!!

The dress is perfect! The release from Evie's Closet for the 12 Days of Christmas event... her day was day 7, the one with the swans, and for it she made this spectacular dress (shown without many of the prim embellishments that are awesome, but didn't suit the look that I was going for with the pics)in white and as shown, black.

The thing I love about Evie's creations, besides the style and consistent quality, is how versatile they are. For whatever reason, many of Evie's dresses just seem to bring out the inner goth in me and I LOVE IT! LOL

For the rest of the outfit... The hair which I am in love with is from a hair store that's been around a while but is new to me, Penumbra which I discovered on one of my jaunts to Trap at the Twilight sim. The demo's themselves completely won me over, the way all the prims where a sample of all the colours available looks awesome on these hair styles! I'd love to see this for sale with the other colour selections :D *adds to my Christmas wish list to Santa*

The shoes are lovely! (feel free to zoom in on those), they're from Lazy Places! Fun but stylish! The choker is from Flipside, it's awesome... I love Flippa Stella's prim work, the woman has great skills :D The skin is a custom recolour of Sphinx from Trap (sorry, not available for sale). The poses used in both pics here are from the awesome 5ifth Order (my first stop for action poses) aaaaaaaaaaaand... last but not least! My new release...



A big thank you to hyasynth Tiramisu for rescuing these gloves from being named something lame & giving me the perfect name for them AND a big thank you to Tamzin Xigalia for doing the fantastic ad pic :D

Morpheus - The Endless Chains w Gloves is available either in world at Studio Sidhe or on Xstreet.

Until next time, enjoy!

Dream Dancing

Evangeline Miles of Evie's Closet has released Elizabeth. A beautiful gown of exquisite detail and craftsmanship... I know, TOTAL Captain Obvious moment given we're talking about Evie's Closet...when has she released something that is not perfection itself?

The gown is awesome, I love the swishing skirt movement... that's one of the things that gets me every time with Evie's creations... the natural flow and movement of her skirts. I always find myself looking for a dance ball so I can watch the skirt go SWISH! heehee LOL so decided to include a piccy of my avi dancing at Moonsong.

Evie teamed up with Elizabeth Tinsley (notice the name did you? good, cause the dress *is* named for Elizabeth, so you are very clever) who made some spectacularly detailed and delicate jewellery to go with the gowns. The clever thing about this collaboration is that Elizabeth has given you two options for the collar and necklace, you can wear the necklace without the collar... easy. OR you can wear the collar with the necklace already attached, so you don't have to worry about conflicting attachment points! I love that sort of forethought! :D

Oh best news EVER! The Elizabeth gowns are available for a LIMITED time only at a ridiculously low special release price, so get there NOW![TAXI]

That's all from me, I'm going to go back to my dancing!

Until next time,

Enjoy!

Some Winterstock Fun!

Hi Everyone!

Presenting Studio Sidhe's Winterstock exclusive pose prop for Christmas!!! You'll find it HERE. We're sharing a space with Evie's Closet, so come down & check it out :D

I've rezzed a slightly lighter version of the pose prop at the stall, but you get the full 19 prim version when you buy it. It's Mod/Copy so you can of course mess around with it to get the look & prim count you want. Oh! & the best news... it's only $100L!!!

I do encourage you to get it within the next week, as I am planning on making other things for our Winterstock space, but will be swapping out the stuff that is already there... so don't miss out!

Also, don't forget that the 50% off store card sale is going on for ONE MORE DAY at Studio Sidhe main store. You know I'm not someone to call a sale every second day, so who knows when the next one will be! LOL

Enjoy!

~Faery~

ROAR!!!

Hi all,

In keeping with my new tradition of blogging the things on the grid that I love, so I can share it with the masses... here is my weekly post :)

Check out these poses! Cool ha? Totally kick arse? hell yes! These are the work of the posing genius Jonny Dusk of 5ifth Order.

As a fellow content creator I think it's important to recognise the people on the grid who's work just shines. For me as a pose maker, I can say with absolute sincerity that Jonny's work is just that. His work is brilliant. His ability to capture and convey emotion, action, and story in just one still moment is surpassed by none.

If you don't know the work of Jonny Dusk, and have never been to 5ifth Order, I urge you to do so. Jonny is the poser that I want to be when I grow up! :D





The rest of the outfit I put together from Exile, Illusions, SLink and La Sylphide. For full outfit & pose credits scroll down)

In other news! Remember that gorgious outfit that Evie Miles of Evie's Closet released earlier this month... name Faery (after me, just in case you missed that ;D)? Well, Amyla Wakowski of the Hidey Spot has made some lovely skins to go with that (ALSO name after moi!)

So as Name Stuff after Faery Month, *coughs* I mean OCTOBER, draws to a close (well for northern hemisphere folks in any case) I leave you with the pic below of me; Faery, wearing Faery and Faery LOL

Take care, and until next time...

Enjoy!

...and 40 Foot Smurfs!!!

Oh hai!

I don't usually do fashion blogs, well actually, I don't think I ever have before, but first time for everything! And I know that Caj, Gidge, Acha, Mourna, Tear & Amyla will be going "Has the world gone mad??? FAERY IS BLOGGING!!! *dies*"

But THIS outfit I felt needed some Faery bloggage... for two reasons:

First Reason: The dress is the spectacular new creation of Evie's Closet... a name I'm sure you'll agree that is synonymous with style and quality.

and...

Second Reason: This outfit is named for MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! heehee

I am, to be totally serious now; so completely honoured by this tribute and beyond touched... to know that someone thinks enough of you that they would want to name one of their creations after you; well it's massive. Is there a greater compliment? And for that creation to be made by one of the best designers in SL... I'm floored! There is really no other way to put it.

Below is a pic that Evie did (amazing photographer as well as being a genius designer) which I wanted to show you here because I just love how versatile her creations are... from the top pic of the rather goth look I did above, to this sweet, whimsical image below... I think it shows that you are only limited by your imagination when choosing a look to go with her creations.



The outfit comes in five different colours with each colour coming with FOUR different options of dress... and the wings are so gorgeous! :D

So go to Evie's Closet now, and pick yourself up a glorious faery outfit, I'd love to see what you do with my namesake heehee

Enjoy!

Hi Everyone!

Wow, okay, I am sooo excited, I have made my very first model pose "set" *puffs out chest proudly*

I was totally inspired to do this from a look a mate and I put together for a blog post made out of a funky faery outfit from Evie's Closet and some awesome accessories from Flipside (you'll see in the ad pic below!)



These poses are available separately or as a set :D In world or you can get the set on Xstreet HERE.


A couples pose made while thinking of the dynamics of the relationship between sisters... different views will tell the tale of different aspects of this relationship... as seen by me, but you might see something in there for you too...



and courtesy of Evie Miles who posed with me for these pics... a different angle to give you an idea of the different moods this pose set has:



This set is also available in world or on Xstreet HERE.

Thank You Evie! =D

Evangeline Miles is a mate of mine, she also happens to be the amazing mind, skill and talent behind Evie's Closet. I don't give praise lightly, and those that know me will tell you that I tell it how it is. I KNOW how much time and effort goes into Evie's creations, I know the care and attention that she gives to each piece... anyone with an observant eye can see the quality of her work.

Sadly Evie has been having a rough time of it, it appears that not everyone can appreciate such fine work, beautiful detailing or the effort, skill and talent that goes into making her gowns or just how ridiculously under priced her gowns are...

So I sent out a call in plurk to the woman on my friends list yesterday and was heartened by the response to join me in a little project to show how much we care about Evie and what her work means to us.

I was inspired by a comment on plurk that someone made; "when I wear Evie's dresses, I feel like a princess" (or words to that effect) so I wanted a way to show Evie that there where people in SL who do appreciate her work, and what it means to them.

So we came up with a group pic... always a hard thing to round up a bunch of people in SL, but many people wanted to be a part of this! Thank you to everyone who participated and to everyone who sent messages supporting Evie :)

So thank you everyone and most of all, Thank you Evie... for making these spectacular gowns and for putting your heart into your creations.

*hugs*
