Aurora Borealis

Aurora Borealis

by Nellie Seelye Evans

There is a flower of climate rare,
That never bloomed for me,
I searched the wood, I searched the moor,
I robbed the emerald sea.

 

Alone upon an icy coast,

By Arctic's hem it grows,
Its beauty is intoxicant
To those who brave the snows.

 

But when the Bear shines clear and high
I dream of Polar night.
Wherein this wondrous flower blooms
In sheaves of rainbow light.

 

 

This absolutely stunning dress is a brand new creation from Zanze that is a must have for your next special occasion!  The "Nice Wild Crocus Gown" is intricately detailed from the bottom to the top including the delicate styling across the back making this dress spectacular from any side.  The dress is available in several colors and each one is an gorgeous as the pink, pictured here.  If you haven't had the chance to fall in love with Zanze, then find the time and head on over and have a look, I am sure you will find exactly what you are looking for in fashion forward designs!

Night at Usher II

Night at Usher II

 The House blazed with life and color; harlequins rang by with belled caps and white mice danced miniature quadrilles to the music of dwarfs who tickled tiny fiddles with tiny bows, and flags rippled from scorched beams while bats flew in clouds about gargoyle mouths which spouted down wine, cool, wild and foaming.

A creek wandered through the seven rooms of the masked ball. Guests sipped and found it to be sherry. Guests poured from the booths, transformed from one age into another, their faces covered with dominoes, the very act of putting on a mask revoking all their licenses  to pick a quarrel with fantasy and horror. The women swept about in red gowns, laughing. The men danced them attendance.

And on the walls were shadows with no people to throw them, and here or there were mirrors in which no image showed.  "All of us vampires!" laughed Mr. Fletcher.  "Dead!

 Ray Bradbury - The Martian Chronicles - Usher II

As she wandered along the glistening corridors, sipping the blood red Sherry from a crystalline glass, the golden room caught her attention.  The way the lights danced about the room, almost playing tricks on here eyes; as if the room were filled with a hundred souls, not just the scattered few who milled about the room.  She swore she heard someone whisper the word "death" but then again, she had heard all kinds of things whispered tonight.  Placing her mask to her face; the exquisite details becoming clearer as she stepped to the mirror.  The delicate skull, luxurious fabrics, and what quite possibly, could be bone.  Leaning in closer to get a better look her heart stopping suddenly as the mask falls from her hand; her delicate fingers fumbling towards the mirror; seemingly searching for herself,  she realizes she too has become one with the Court of the Dead.

Spectrum

When we first came here,
We were cold and we were clear,
With no colours on our skin,
We were light and paper-thin.

And when we first came here,
We were cold and we were clear,
With no colours on our skin,
'Till you let the spectrum in.

Say my name,
And every colour illuminates,
We are shining,
And we'll never be afraid again.

AFI Designs newest release for Sneak Peek transported me to another time and place; one of brilliant colours and dancing lights.  The Charmant gown and matching accessories is a truly stunning design that didn't break or stretch as I moved or posed.  The detailing on the bodice is exquisite as are the wings, which look like they are dotted by stars.  The antique gold tone of the gown means you can accessorize with either silver or gold, as both mix well with the embellishments on the gown as well.  Zuri Rayna has released two gorgeous jewelry collections for this round of Sneak Peek, which I have been wearing quite a lot lately.  The Aurora sets are controllable upon touch and have a wide variety of metals and stones to choose from, as well as the option to turn the "bling" off.  Which of course makes it a wonderful addition to any jewelry box, since you can wear them at night as well as during the day.

Serendipity

I hope everyone had a wonderful Holiday and that you are ready for some serious shopping this weekend!  If you have not heard, Penumbra's Sneak Peek opened on Christmas Day featuring over 20 designers all with new and exclusive releases!  Ghee has released the absolutely adorable "Rose Puffball Frock" as an exclusive for Sneak Peek which comes with the Fascinator hat and the Rose Embellishment on the front.  Both items come with resizers making them qite easy to fit.  I love the mesh of this dress which moves wonderfully, as you can tell from the pictures.  The print detail is exquisite and the color combinations are very well done.  The dress is available in a few different color combinations, so hurry over and pick up your favorite!

While you are grabbing your favorite dress make sure to pick up Ghee's "Naomi Candy Platforms" in the complimentary color to the dress!  The platforms are very well made and the texture is just fantastic!  The shoes come with a HUD to change the sole and the laces on the front of the platforms making them very versatile and it is a great way to add some more spunk to this ensemble!

Poses - PosESion - Ari

I added the gorgeous "Aurora Elite V2" collection, minus the necklace, from Zuri Rayna Jewels to finish the ensemble.  The entire collection has a wonderful menu via "Touch" that allows you to change the metals, the stones, resize and turn "Bling" and "Bright" off and on, which I find incredibly helpful.  The textures are truly stunning, and a MUST HAVE for all of you who love beautiful jewels.  Sneak Peek only lasts until January 5th, so hurry on over and get your Chic Sneak Peek at some of the most fashion forward designs on the grid!

Dreaming of a White Christmas

Well for most of you it is already Christmas Eve, but I have an hour left before the clock strikes midnight and I am whisked away for a few days down to sunny Phoenix for the holiday.  Before I took off I wanted to make sure I gave you all a little teaser into Sneak Peek from Penumbra which opens Christmas Day and a couple other reasons to wander over to Vogue's Arctic Blast!

Christmas Day!

Dress - Vivace - Christa Gown @ Feeb's Rascals St. Sales Room until 01/01/15

Shoes - Bougie - Celebrity Studded Stilettos - Slink High @ Vogue's Arctic Blast

This absolutely stunning jewelry collection is new and exclusive at Sneak Peek starting Christmas Day from Zuri!  All pieces have resizers and color changers built-in upon "Touch."  I was stunned at the number of metals and stones to choose from, making it a newly coveted piece due to its versatility, design and quality.  Make sure to head on over on Christmas if you are around, or make sure to put it on the top of your list when you return!  It will be well worth the visit!

Vivace has released this gorgeous dress for this month's round of Feeb's Rascals St. Sales Room.  The "Christa" gown comes in 7 different textures via HUD and is on sale @ Feeb's until January 1st!  I love how this dress fits and how it moved with me, not against me when I posed and walked around.  Which, of course, is always a plus!  So if you haven't had a chance to check out Vivace, do yourself a favor and hurry on over to Feeb's for this great gown!

And check out these FABULOUS shoes from Bougie currently at Vogue's Arctic Blast!  I love that you can texture the shoe and the straps on this shoe and the number of different colors to choose from is amazing!  Have moved these into the permanent part of my closet because they will be getting a lot of use!  Head on over and grab yours today!

I hope everyone has a safe and wonderful holiday with their families and friends and that you are all lucky enough to have a white Christmas where you are this week.  I know I will be dreaming of a White Christmas as I sit on the patio and drink margaritas in the sun!
