Dark Style's Fallen Angel



Dark Angel, with thine aching lust!
Of two defeats, of two despairs:
Less dread, a change to drifting dust,
Than thine eternity of cares.


Do what thou wilt, thou shalt not so,
Dark Angel! triumph over me:
Lonely, unto the Lone I go;
Divine, to the Divinity.

The Dark Angel
by Lionel Johnson
1893

Just a few more days left at the Dark Style Fair, and this is an outfit I have spent the last couple of weeks putting together for you all!  The tattoo by UtopiaH inspired this outfit, as it is absolutely amazing!  The detail is exquisite, and considering the placement of this body tattoo, which does cover both breasts, there is minimal stretching and blurring of the lines.  The Slink Hand Applier is seamless, and this is often not the case with a lot of continuous arm tattoos to the hands.  For the sake of keeping my blog viewable by all, I have covered the pink parts with the new Zoella hair from Truth.  I love this hair for several reasons, one of them being I can get away being topless without the decency police putting me in shackles; and another, it splits perfectly over the shoulders and drapes elegantly down the back.  The waves in the hair keep it from looking stiff when you move and when taking pictures.


Have you heard of Scrub?  I hadn't until I walked into their store at the Dark Style Fair, and at that moment I was thrilled I had waited to spend any Linden until I found the perfect outfit for me to show.  Now, with my usual Boho Chic style, a place like Scrub would normally stay under my radar, so I am thrilled to have discovered them at the Fair!  The "Like a Nun" collar is a fantastic mesh collar that also comes with an alpha, if you need to wear one.  I did have to adjust my body fat to almost zero however, for it to not cut into my shoulders, but this will be something everyone will have to adjust differently depending on how it fits.  But if it isn't fitting right, try body fat and thickness first!  A set of bracers that are fitted mesh are also available to match the collar.  The details are wonderful and the lacework is very well done.  Also at Scrub you will find this delicate face chain, called "Alice's Chains".  It is available in more than one color and they are easy to resize as well, which, of course, makes it that much more appealing.  I didn't spend more than a minute getting to fit perfectly for my face.


DirtyStories is another store I was unfamiliar with, but after falling in love with these horns, I plan on finding out more about them!  The Damned Princess/Prince Horns are available for both male and female in their store at Dark Style until it closes.  The detail on the back of the horns can be seen in the first picture.  The design is very unique, considering that most put the details on the front or the sides of the horns, not in the back.  As usual, Maxi Gossamer's Bali Gypsy Hand Jewelry adorns my hands.  If you missed them at FaMeshed last month, check the store.  You can resize, recolor and retexture the beads, cord and the stones on the hand pieces, which makes them very versatile.  I made them black and silver for this outfit, but the number of different combinations you can create is stunning!

Dark Coquet

Ever have one of those shopping days where you were just overwhelmed with the amount of things you wanted or *cringes* went ahead and bought?  *coughs*  This post is a showcase of a few of my favorite finds at the most recent of round of events on the grid.  First and foremost, to Coquet... The Zen Sundress is available at FaMEshed right now, and has a HUD giving you four color choices.  All of them are expertly textured with wonderful detail.  The color choices are perfect for Spring and Summer!  Matched with these AMAZING shoes from Emporium found at the Dark Style Fair, this is a perfect garden party dress.  The Mobscene Heels come with a HUD with an amazing 20 color choices, and 2 different selcetions for the soles to match pretty much anything and everything in your closet.


L'Accessoires has become a place I dread and love going to, mainly because I know I will leave with an empty pocket book!  The Swirl Ring by Eclectica comes in two color combinations, but that is not the only option for this ring....  Touch the ring to pull up a menu for almost all of the stones and diamonds and metals on the ring itself.  I was pleasantly surprised with this feature and have fallen in love with this ring.  The fit is perfect, and the resizer helps as well.  !Lybra! also has this cute Spring/Summer jewelry set in 3 different color options at the event, so do yourself a favor and go check out all the wonderful accessories available!

I am once again blown away by the fact that I haven't found anything made by Coquet that I didn't love, and that was not wonderfully crafted.  I am very critical, and often times, will buy many more pieces than I showcase, due in part to their being some sort of issue with the outfit.  I wish the top of this dress was built for a larger chest, but compared to others, it was quite easy to fit.  If you have a love for flirty, soft, romantic fashions with great textures and color combinations, then go visit Coquet, you will not be disappointed!

Happy shopping!  Never forget to say I love you to those who matter, for tomorrow may be to late.   Have a wonderfully wicked rest of your week!
