Entropy

Entropy

En - tro - py
Noun
Lack of order or predictability.
Gradual decline into disorder.



 




More stunning beauty from The World Goth Fair in the form of a fabulous gown from Fission, a perfect polish set from Dark Passion - Koffin Nails & a bit of gothy adornments from The Little Bat. All of it so absolutely perfect and seemingly made for each other, even though they are not.  
My look was built with my favorite perfectly porcelain skin from Mystic Canvass, stunning eyes from Fix8 and slinky, sexy heels from DeadPool. Toss on a few accessories from various designers, like this headpiece from Distorted Dreams... Oh my goodness, I just love it!
The first five poses all come from this month's round of Sneak Peek. Both KaTink and HelaMiyo have sets available for purchase.
So while at Club Gothika for World Goth Day I found myself chatting with NaTas Janus who is the creator / designer of the Entropy II sim /exhibit, which is part of the current round of The Linden Endowment for the Arts (LEA.) After seeing a few pics knew I had to take some time and go take a walk through the sim. I had no idea how stunning parts of it would be, and how gruesome other would be.  Not to mention there are all kinds of fun free goodies, from sl vehicles to amusing avatars. Be sure to stop in to this exhibit before it's gone at the end of the month, you will be glad you did.

It's a Party of my Charade




It's a party of my charade
To keep all others of my day
A page in time goes both ways
The party has just begun, please stay
You can be mine when the dream hits play






Friday was World Goth Day and I was lucky enough to catch a few of the sets at Club Gothika. I have to say that was truly the best time I have had in a club in ages! There was good music and friendly folks. It was really a treat to meet some of the fab SL designers who's designs I have come to know and love over the years in SL.  If you peek on the main event website you can find out when the next fun at the club will be and also take a listen to the very same sets I caught at the event. https://worldgothfair.wordpress.com/

On to the details for this look~
My perfect lil purple dress from Chop Shop is oh so cute. I really did fall in love with it as soon as I unpacked it. There are a few color combinations available at the event. My links below will give you direct slurls to the booths to help you navigate the sim. That is after you are done taking in the fab design of it all.  The sim is gorgeous, I know I already told you that but it doesn't hurt to repeat it, because the sim is FAB!

After you snatch up the dress go try your luck at the gacha at Dark Water Designs for this batty lil ring. At 25L you can't pass it up.

I finished off the look with shoes that are the perfect amount of cute from DeadPool. You can find these on the Marketplace in 8 different colors.
 
Of course with a look like this Koffin Nails from Dark Passions are the required manicure. This super cute polish set was at an event last month, but I am sure it is soon to arrive in the main store. Did you know that Dark Passions is an event sponsor at the World Goth Fair?  Don't forget to stop in the booth while you are there, B has some lovely items out.

I am still loving the Champaign line of eyes from Fix8, especially for a soft look like this one. They go so well with my fave pale skin from Mystic Canvass. You know I often think about how lucky Dante and I are that our main sponsors all have designs that really do go so well together. Such a joy to work with all of them, and to show you their lovely creations.
 
All the poses in this set are from Katink and available at this month's round of Sneak Peek. Keep watch here as Dante will show you a few more from the set... at least I think we used different ones.  LOL have you ever noticed sometimes we repeat each other?  Yeah, there are times we just think alike... and I am more than ok with that!

WORLD GOTH FAIR






The World Goth Fair is finally here. 
I have to admit I have been eagerly awaiting this event for so many reasons. This truly is one of my favorite events in SL. Where else can you find so many of SL's top dark designers in one place with so many wonderful new releases?  Not only that but as always from the folks at Cursed Events the sim design is stunning.  Not just simple dark and creepy, but jaw dropping stunning.  You really need to go see what an amazing job Loki Violet has done on the sim.

Did you notice the gorgeous walking stick in my hand?  It one of the new releases for WGF by Chaos, Panic & Disorder. Not only is the walking stick available in this wonderfully feminine and beautiful rose design, but there are also designs with a cobra, dragon skull, goat skull, panther head or a spyglass available. Be sure to visit the booth to see the shoes and jewelry as well. 

My dress is from Fission and features a simple under dress which could also easily be worn alone, giving you another nice staple in your wardrobe. The over dress fits perfect and adds a bit of celestial enchantment.

Black Tulip is offering up 50 new poses (with mirrors) for WGF. So many to choose form, including some sitting poses. They are packaged in sets of 5 and a HUGE fat pack.  Be sure to stop in at the event to get a fab deal on that fat pack.

Rapture









What an absolutely stunning gown from Glo. The pencil skirt, the lush train and a top made merely of rose petals will have all eyes on you.  It really is striking. The lil hair piece is included as well, and it goes perfectly with this elegant side swept up do from Ashmoot.  I am wearing a selection from the Light Blondes pack, but of course there is a full range of color packs to choose from. Both the gown and the hair are available at this round of Sneak Peek.  

I can lose myself in the Lucidity line of eyes from FIX8. They just seem to draw me in with their intensity.
