Midsummer Enchantment - A Dark Passions Event

Thou art as wise as thou art beautiful.
(Act III, scene i)
A Midsummer Night's Dream 
by William Shakespeare



It's time for all manner of beautiful and magical creatures to come out and play at the latest event from Dark Passions. This round is Midsummer Enchantment and with so many lovely designers it truly is enchanting. Not only can you find some gorgeous exclusive items at the event they are all at a discounted event price. Many of the designers are also participating in the 5L hunt, so be sure to check the sign at the event entry for an example of what to look for. 
The event site is gorgeous, you will love it for pictures.
You can find out more info and get a bit of a peek at some of the lovely items on the Dark Passions Events Facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/DarkPassionsEvents/

Most of my outfit is from the Midsummer Enchantment event but not all of it. These lovely long lashes are yet another fun item from W:6, currently at the Ross Event. And while you are out cosmetic shopping run on over to snatch up this polish set from Dark Passions which is at the Cosmetics Fair for a few more days.  

Have you checked out the poses from Serendipity lately?  They are always so unique and lovely, seriously one stop and I had exactly what I needed for this blog post.

Oh and yes more eyes from Suicidal Unborn.  I just can't help myself!

Heart and Soul

Existence well what does it matter?
I exist on the best terms I can.
The past is now part of my future,
The present is well out of hand.
The present is well out of hand.

Heart and soul, one will burn.

Heart and soul, one will burn.
One will burn, one will burn.

Heart and soul, one will burn.
                                 Joy Division ~ Heart and Soul






Nothing says sexy quite like latex. Sleek shiny see thru latex... wait what? See thru? Yes, the sides of Psycho Barbie's slinky dress are sheer, and that makes it all the more fabulous. Trust me I have received more than a few compliments while wearing it.  

I really love the soft matte finish of the Nina lipstick from The Little Bat, the colors are all really unique and look fab on a pale skin.  

Ok I know I already showed you the Shattered Dreams polish from Dark Passions, but I really love the detail this design has. There is so much depth to the pattern it looks absolutely radiant.  

Ever since I got the Kimmy shape from Pin Up, I don't even bother with others. Kimmy is specifically for the Kimberly Bento head from Catwa and really needs no adjustments at all.  

Not sure if you have noticed but I have developed a slight obsession with Suicidal Unborn's eyes and the newest set is no exception. This pale shade is exclusive to the fat pack, but seriously it well worth the price. They are all stunning.  LOL I keep telling people to "look at my eyes!"  Yeah I really do.

Shattered


Uh huh shattered, uh huh shattered
Love and hope and sex and dreams
Are still surviving on the street
Look at me, I'm in tatters!
I'm a shattered
Shattered
                                          Lyrics from "Shattered"
                                     by The Rolling Stones



Hello beauties, I'm going to keep it short today I just want to say look at that pretty pretty new skin from Mystic Canvass!  Oh so pretty! I am totally loving it. And it's perfect for the awesome new tattoo from W:6. Pale skin always makes such a perfect canvas. 
Add in the sexy clothes from Beauty of Darkness, Dark Passions latest set of "Koffin Nails" and some glittery wedges from The Little Bat and it's all kinds of fabness!

Entropy IV: Memento Mori - A quick peek at an LEA sim by NaTaS Janus.

   
The physical beauty of SL comes from the designers. They brings us the sights, sounds and items for us to play on and in. Without them and their continual improvements to designs we would still be looking like Ruth and playing in a cubic world! One of the greatest places to see some innovations in sim design and artistic creativity without boundaries are at the LEA sims. 






Entropy IV: Memento Mori
A Linden Endowment for the Arts (LEA) sim. 
http://lea-sl.org/about
http://lindenarts.blogspot.com/

So I finally made the time to pop over to see the latest LEA installation by NaTaS Janus, titled Entropy IV: Memento Mori. Admittedly I didn't make it past the landing spot because I just had to stop and take pictures! That means I am still missing out on the six distinct regions within the sim, ranging from laser tag, a maze, a midway and a church basement to name just a few.  Trust me I have plans to explore the rest, but for now I give you this little tiny peek.  

Of course when we go out in SL we must always look our best, I have some of my favorite designers here as usual, coming together in what I think is a pretty cute look.  Perfect for some casual exploring around and about SL.  

As always your shopping details and links are after the designer ads.

The Bats

The Bats have left the bell tower
The victims have been bled
                                              ~ Lyrics from Bela Lugosi's Dead by Bauhaus


Hello beautifully macabre ones. 
Did you know there is still a lil time left at the Dark Style Fair? If you hurry you can snatch up this super cute top from Psycho Barbie.  I have to admit it was hard to pick which design I liked best. They are all really cute and all included in the HUD!
Have you been by Beauty of Darkness lately? This tattoo is the latest release, and as always with BoD the HUD has every body style covered.  Seriously so many! Gotta love that!
Don't forget to swing by Genre to pick up this lovely release from Dark Passions while it is still on the special event price. 
As always all your needed links are after the vendors. 
Happy shopping!

Would You Walk Away


And when the rain comes down
Would you choose to walk or stay
Would you choose to walk
Would you choose to stay
Would you
Walk walk walk walk walk away
~~
Would you walk away
                                     ~ Lyrics from "Walk Away" by The Sisters of Mercy



Who doesn't love a blood red dress, especially one as sexy as this one. I have a little confession to make, I still haven't taken this dress from Pin Up, off. I love it that much! It's truly gorgeous.  

Koffin Nails from Dark Passions always manage to finish off a look to absolute perfection. I love how the vines in the polish pick up the vines on the dress. Total perfection!  

I don't think I need to say much more. All the details are below after the ads. Thank you for stopping by.
