The Razor's Edge

In the shadows, she dances on the razor's edge.  Constantly flirting with danger in an endless dance of mystery and darkness; pain and solitude.   Her eyes glancing forever over her shoulder, watching and waiting.

Last night, wandering with my best friend, while doing a bit of retail therapy at Razor, I picked up these amazing boots and this fantastic outfit!  I love the fit on the Ring Leader outfit, even though, no alpha and no panties, might take a bit to get used to, for me.  It is super sexy, expertly detailed and even when you move around, none of your pink parts peek through!  I just HAD to grab the Envy boots while I was there as well, because the HUD is just AMAZING!  I went with the basic black for this outfit, but the color combinations Razor offers are sure to keep almost anyone happy!  

 

Now, Suicide Dolls is wrapping up their latest round with a new one starting this weekend, and 7mad;Ravens will be bringing you a new original mesh guillotine necklace, that comes in two versions; bloody and not.  Pictured here is the bloody version and the necklace is perfectly done.  From the slight glint on the blade to well placed blood, this necklace is awesome!  So make sure to run down this weekend or during the week and grab yours!  I have a feeling some of you missed the Saturday Sale, which means you missed these cuffs from heathenesque.  The brute cuffs come in a variety of colors and are a perfect, chunky cuff that can go with your heaviest industrial looks, to casual jeans and t's! The Depraved Nation sim itself holds all kinds of unexpected discoveries if you haven't been by yet.  Wander around and find the new homes for 7mad and heathenesque, you will be glad you took the time to go get lost on the Razor's Edge!

Dark Style's Fallen Angel

The Dark 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!

Casual Chic at Fashionart!

If you have been staying away from Fashionart because you have made the assumption it is all haute couture and high fashion collections, then STOP and wander in and surprise yourself, I did!  Ever since I saw the first ads for this event, I must say I was intrigued.  Fashion meets art... Love the concept, and in reality, it is often very true.  When you first load in, be prepared for a heck of a load...it is an ENORMOUS event location.  Don't let this discourage you, because once it has loaded, it is smooth sailing from there on out.  Honestly, too many designers to list, and so many things to pick up as gifts or dollarbies!  However, one particular group jumped out at me and ran off with my wallet!  D-Style has a nice collection inside the main building that happened to pique my interest.  To find bohemian maxi dresses and retro jumpsuits made me squeal with delight! 

The fit on this jumpsuit is fantastic and the textures are very well done.  I have seen this mesh look flat and not necessarily like fabric, and this one surpasses the others I have run across.  The teal in this particular jumpsuit, is one of my favorite colors, and MONTHS ago I bought a collar from Ducknipple because I loved the style and the versatility and to my surprise the teals matched perfectly, so I just had to show it to you!  I make a point of venturing to Truth at least once a week to make sure I haven't missed anything new.  This last week, I found this hair and I LOVE it!  It has options for those of us who favor a more well endowed look, even without Lolas on, and the options make sure all avatars can wear the hairs.  The variety of colors offered makes this a truly great hair for your more casual, laid back days!  I have fallen for this outfit so much, if you happen to run into me on the grid, you might just see me in this very thing!  Enjoy, and happy shopping!!
