Delights from The Darkness Chamber Fair and Dark Passions

The Darkness Chamber Fair has been in full swing for a few days now, with 35 fabulous designers at this event you really want to make it a point to TP yourself (and as many of your friends as you can grab) there soon.
This super sexy suit set (say that three times fast) is from Merlific. You have to love a perfect lil number like this, especially considering the testure HUD that is included! You will get lots of use from this, and lots of attention! That I can totally vouch for.

Just in case you didn't snatch up all the nails from Dark Passions when you were last at The Mesh Body Addicts Event, I've got another set to show you. As always your best deal is on the fatpacks, but the polish is offered in a variety of options to make sure all your mani/pedi needs are covered.

My lovely skin is from Swallow and it really does have a velvety smooth look to it. Just a luscious shade of creamy with all the right shadows and contours. I could get rather attached to it for awhile.

If you are looking for an absolutely lovely sim to explore for a bit, then the new Templemore sim is perfect. There are so many lil hidden gems on the sim, it's just brilliant. Be sure to check out their Facebook page to get the details on the next set of scheduled live music shows. Some truly great talent has been known to grace the stages of Templemore.

Of course all the links you need are below.

A Pink Dream

Never smile

Never stare

She doesn't seem to care at all

Never cry

Never scream

She doesn't seem to really need me at all...

Fourteen weeks I stay away from home

A hundred days a part of me unknown

Apart in pink and perfect moments play

And as a wonder of the world

She sucks my breath away

A Pink Dream by The Cure

Yesterday was World Goth Day and I found myself reflecting on just how far we have come in the past few decades. I was thinking just how hard it used to be to find all the wonderful things that helped us look the way we wanted. I used to have to drive 45 mins to Huntington Beach to The Electric Chair to get my Manic Panic. If I was lucky I could find some buckle boots on the sale rack (happened twice for me!) My fishnets had to come from a sex shop, and I had to beg my big brother to drive me to Los Angeles to a men's workboot store to get my Docs. Years later a boyfriend had a friend bring me my beloved pointy toed thigh highs down from San Francisco because they were no where to be found in Hollywood at the time. Gawd, I loved those boots. Someplace I still have some of those sale rack buckle boots stuffed away, they always bring a smile to my face when I see them.

I love that today there are so many more options to express one's gothic creativity. The scene has grown and prospered into a continuing source of beauty. I can't help but smile when I see a group of young goths basking in their paleness. I am sure they often wonder why I am smirking at them, I'm just proud to see them and know the subculture still thrives.

SL gives us such vast opportunities to indulge in so many styles, but somehow I always wander back to my beloved goth. You can tell the designers that hold it close to their hearts like I do. They help us make our second lives so much more wonderfully dark. (And in the case of Dark Passions - so much pinker! - Just kidding B, but I do blame my love affair with Pastel Goth entirely on you ♥)
