#702 - The Spirit Valley of Kuruk

I feel like this valley calls to me. I like the feel here, very spiritual. It feels like home though. So very warm and welcoming. The markings on the valley stones, walkways, campsite and statues around the whole area give it a native feel to me. The claw marks that bear witness to the history of the valley are still visible if you look for them. This valley is special. 

.:SOUL:. [G3] RANITOMAYA [Ink] 

So I fly around just examining the valley in all it's beauty. Looking for the perfect spot to perch upon. There are plenty of nice, high, out of the way spots to settle and get comfortable in and be in solitude which is very much needed. Time to meditate and find out what else the valley wants to say to me.

CLOSE UP LOOK AT THE .:SOUL:. [G3] RANI V2 [INK] SKIN

So there is only one day left of the Fantasy Faire and then the sims disappear into the mists again until next year. I will certainly miss them. I hope you had the chance to visit the Fantasy Faire. It is so beautiful just like this valley. There are 18 sims to see if you wanna just walk them on the final day. Surely there will be parties happening on the last day. Jump in the Fantasy Faire Group and there will be announcements there or in the group chat.

#701 - Create Your Dreams @ Fantasy Faire!

Create your dreams at Fantasy Faire! So many merchants are around with so many things for you to use to create anything you've seen or dreamed up! 

Here I am doing my musicbox dance to the music over the stream! Enjoying one of the many sims at Fantasy Faire this year (2020). You know, with our RL world situation, it has nearly basically halted or slowed down all the Relay for Life fundraising events. So Fantasy Faire continuing on is doing what currently can't be done in RL! Your purchases and donations are particularly important this year. The virtual world is helping where the real world cannot. I hope you join us for these last few days of the Fantasy Faire and make a donation at one of the kiosks or an RFL purchase. You can also always go to the Relay for Life website and make a donation there too. No matter where you do it, it is very much needed. Thank you so much for your donations, however you may decide to make them! And, have a great faire!
Mistakes Were Made! is a bright colorful sim at Fantasy Faire and very cheerful in mood. Lots of different merchants are here both cheerful and dark. You can also find Dinkie stuff here too. This sim reminds me of the Dinkie crowd too. Pay it a visit! Mistakes Were Made! sponsored by Epic Toy Factory.

I found a wonderfully pretty RFL furry mod! The SKS Designs Okapi - Purple RFL. This is made for the Regalia and Omega compatible mesh bodies(so be sure to grab the one you need!). You will need the Happy Paw Deer Head (Bento) to create this furry. It is a beautiful Purple - Black - Pink and includes the hooves (for the Maitreya body) and tail seen in the picture above. I've added the outfit, horns, hair and wings. I have done a side by side picture above to show the mod without most of the extras I've added. The HP Deer Head also includes horns in 5 options via the hud. Ears are animated as well. SKS also has this mod in different colors too in the store at Fantasy Faire on the Lamented Fens sim. Fantasy Faire will run through May 10th, so you will need to get by there soon for this RFL color!
The outfit is from Roped Passions, also on the Lamented Fens sim and is available in a fatpack with 21 colors!!! 21!!! Have this sexy dress, jewelry and boots in 21 colors! I am so happy for this set!
The wings are also available at the Fantasy Faire, the AMBIX - Starlight Wings! You can find them on the Melusina's Depths sim. They are bento wings and move when you walk. Customize them with the included hud for the colors on every part of the wings, ribbons and stars seen.

DP - KOFFIN NAILS - HOPE, FIRE & FAIRY DUST  &  FANTASY FLUTTER KEYS
HARSHLANDS - FF DECADE NECKLACES GACHA - RFL MAGNOLIA VINES
ROPED PASSIONS - OLINA ENCHANTRESS CIRCLET

If you are not familiar with the Harshlands FF Decade Necklace Gacha, this item comes back each year and with additional or new items added. This year makes the 10th year, hence the Decade Necklace Gacha. Many styles to collect! This is the #10 from the HL Decade Necklace Gacha. Find Harshlands on the Siren's Lore sim. A mysterious yet beautiful sim with the ever present sounds of the ocean waves (I love that part!).
The two nail polishes seen here are also found at the faire. Dark Passions - Koffin Nails has a store on the Lamented Fens sim. These are applied to the Maitreya Mesh Body Nails. Lovely, aren't they? Find them at a very nice price for the six design sets that include Omega, Slink and Maitreya appliers.
Many of these special RFL editions are only available at the faire, so once the faire is over you may not see them again until next year or they could be gone, so don't delay! Hurry on over and find them today!

#700 - New Nasu Gacha @ Gacha Garden Perfect for Role Play

Moeko has a new gacha at Gacha Garden and it is a great one for role playing! Come check it out! There is an outfit for daytime role play...

MOEKO - NASU GACHA @ GACHA GARDEN

And just because it comes to mind, it's no joke what all our medical workers and other essential employees are doing for all of us in every country daily and here in the US it's just well, nuts! During all this craziness they are taking care of us and risking their lives doing it. I can't imagine. Well, just my thoughts, wishing you all peace and love during this unbelievably trying time for the world.

The Moeko Nasu Gacha has 5 Pieces in 6 colors each and is made for the Meshbody Classic, Legacy and Legacy Perky. I am wearing it on the Legacy Perky. It's a very cute little nurses uniform. And like I said, one outfit for daytime...and another for nighttime play!

MOEKO - NASU GACHA @ GACHA GARDEN

Very sexy second outfit. This one is a two piece Top and Skirt showing off your back and belly and a good portion of your backside! All pieces in one gacha and they are at the Gacha Garden all month long!

The skins here are available at the Fantasy Faire which will be ending soon on May 10th. These are from Ab.Fab and can be found on the Elemaria sim. There are two RFL offerings in the store there, the Eir Amethyst skin BoM (Pic #1) in two versions and the Eir Nightshade skin BoM (Pic #2) in two versions. These are both Bakes on Mesh (BoM) only skins, so you can wear them on any body that supports Bakes on Mesh. Activate that on your mesh body parts and wear the skin like we used to so long ago. Also, you must remove your alphas. The Fantasy Faire ends soon so hurry on by and pick these up! The funds go to a great cause, the Relay for Life for Cancer Research!

#699 - What Thoughts Could Be Behind These Eyes?

So I don't have cats (in RL) and I am very much a dog lover. But, in Second Life, I am quite the opposite. I've fallen in love with this particular neko avatar (besides other kitties). The {NB} Maneki Neko avatar (released at the Hullabazoo event). There are so many mods for this avatar and here is one from the Fantasy Faire this year. You can still get this before the faire closes on the 10th. It also comes with the Manticore skin mod for those who won the Manticore versions of this avatar (which, I did not! sadly!). Even I had not noticed all the detail on this mod! Just look at the detail in the eyes, let alone all over the body!

FREAKY DESIGN - TREASURE BLACK FF2020 LIMITED EDITION

Look at those eyes! This is a normal expression for these avatars, but the eyes on this mod! Incredible! I love it. There are two more mods like this in different colors. A Gold and a Fuschia / Hot Pink color. All can be found at the Freaky Design store at the Fantasy Faire on the Mistakes Were Made sim thru May 10th!

I didn't get a black cat when playing the gacha, so of course I needed one and this is the perfect mod for a black cat. Very wonderfully detailed. Come pick up one (or more) for your Maneki Neko or Manticore at Freaky Design! This is just one of My New Shiny items from the Fantasy Faire this year! I have my eyes on a couple more too!

#698 - Crab Anyone?

This is a majorly cool ride! And, as big as it is, I don't get stuck anywhere with it! So I love that part! It can also be a wander on your land too! I have watched this giant wander a small platform and it never fell off! It doesn't move too far either way once it's placed and the motions are quite spooky but fun to watch too! This is the Wilds of Organica (WoO) Giant Ghost Crab RFL Fantasy Pearl, one of two RFL editions in the store here at Fantasy Faire! But there are also many other colors in the store, you are sure to find one to your liking. The RFL editions however, will not be available after the Faire, possibly until next year.

This store also happens to be on the Cassiopeia sim. This sim makes me think of a rebirth. I get the feeling that it represents nature coming back after something very cataclysmic happening to the planet. Nature returns in the most unexpected places sometimes and where it was originally. Just as strong as before. The waters so clear, nature so beautiful as it was meant to be, beginning again.

The Fantasy Faire ends on May 10th so not too much time left to see all of this and do the Quest if you want to do that too. I hope you get to see the faire, it is amazing and many purchases are a 100% donation to Relay for Life in researching a cure for cancer. Hope to see you around!

#697 - Traveling Around The Fantasy Faire

HIDDEN CAVE ON MELUSINA'S DEPTHS

Riding my trusty kelpy, I took a ride around the amazing depths of Melusina. This is an amazing place. I've already been here but missed so much! So of course, I had to go back and explore further. I still need to find the ruins here, those I have not run across yet. Never has the underwater been more enticing. Make sure to wander off the beaten paths when you visit. You can also find these Oceana Kelpies here too. Get a better look at this outfit on Flickr. I couldn't fit all I wanted into this post!

SOUL - RANITOMEYA V2 SKIN

This is the .:Soul:. Ranitomeya V2 [G3] Skin, in the RFL tone. So lovely I think. I really like this one's markings, I own a few of them and I really do like the colors in this line. And these are a new Gen 3 skin line at the Fantasy Faire this year. I have applied it using BoM to the AK W001 Head and Slink Hourglass Mesh Body. I have applied the specific BoM Layer for the head to this AK head. The full BoM skin doesn't apply to the head, so you must either apply it with the Omega applier or try the BoM Brow or NoBrow layers to apply the skin to the head. I have used the BoM NoBrow Layer here. But there is a note included when you apply the skin to his particular head. Which is possibly the same with all the other AK Advanced heads. I thought once the Bakes on Mesh button worked and the skin showed up, but the next time it did not. This skin is available for both male and female and only at Fantasy Faire on the Zodiac sim.

The outfit is the Roped Passions - Olina Enchantress Outfit Purple and it is RP's RFL outfit this year. Very sexy and lovely, showing lots of skin! Yes it does! And sheer in the back too! I am wearing it on the Slink Hourglass Mesh Body. Ooo la la! Find it at the Fantasy Faire on the Lamented Fens sim.

Staying away from the hustle and bustle of the busy areas of the sims. I love looking from a distance to see a bigger picture or just enjoying the waves because I am in the middle of the US and always indoors. No ocean waves around here either! It's nice to sit quietly (or lean) and think on things after exploring for a while.

FOLLY - HELLION FANTASY MAKEUP  BOM RFL, *TSM* WARPATH - S5 - L.E. FANTASY FAIRE 2015 RFL

This is an RFL exclusive hair from The Stringer Mausoleum, *TSM* Warpath. I have always been a fan of the Warpath hair from *TSM* and I couldn't believe I didn't have this one! It is only one color and resizable. Not expensive either and perfect for what I wanted to create. Something less, soft looking? You can find *TSM* on the Zodiac sim.
The makeup is from Folly - Hellion Fantasy Makeup BoM RFL. There are many different colors available and they are easy on your wallet too. These are both BoM layers and Omega applied. I used the BoM layer above. It is layered over the .:Soul:. Brows BoM layer for the skin (just FYI). Find Folly on the Lamented Fens sim.
The eyes are from TLB! - Lyric Eyes/Purple (Omega applied) and are also at the Fantasy Faire on Autumnium.

The outfit is The Annex - Kimama Black separates, (top, bottom & panties) also found at the Fantasy Faire right now. Also shown on the Hourglass mesh body. Find The Annex on the Cassiopeia sim. There really is so much to see and find here with more shopping sims this year. Shop while all these beautiful sims surround you.

#696 - Visiting Queensgarden In My Daisies

So, if you are one who thinks you need to be into all this fantasy stuff to even visit Fantasy Faire, I am here to tell you. You don't need to be! Just come as you are and enjoy the scenery! It's beautiful. You can see the ability of so many creators to make things that are so amazingly beautiful. There are places to hang out and enjoy the sims, people watch, or relax alone or with your partner, loved ones or friends. I stopped by in my Daisy casuals. Not all dressed up, even though I love doing that. Don't feel pressured to do so, just come and enjoy the faire!

ZFG DAISY SHIRT GREEN (RARE) AND SHORTS (#6 COMMON) GACHAS @ THE GACHA LIFE

I just relaxed after exploring the Queensgarden sim. I was quite comfortable in my ZFG DAISY SHIRTS and DAISY SHORTS. Both are gachas at The Gacha Life which runs until April 30th, so not too much longer. And there is a shirt gacha for the guys too! Some nice button up plaid shirts for you guys out there in the ZFG CLAUDE shirt gacha (CLAUDE is inside the building down the walkway). Both the ladies DAISY SHIRTS and SHORTS come in mesh body sizes for Maitreya, Slinks, Bellezas and Tonics! And the shorts do have an alpha included with them. Only at The Gacha Life until April 30th!

ZFG DAISY SHIRT PURPLE COMMON & DAISY SHORTS #10 COMMON

So I relaxed a bit more after finding another quiet spot near the waterfalls. The visit was wonderful and helped to clear my head. That is always great to spend time in nature and be able to relax. I hope you do make it around to the faire soon. There are also places to shop and surely you will find something you'll love! There is a Pinterest catalog to browse too, with links to each shop for the item you seek. Feel free to spend some time there, I know you will not regret it!

#695 - Quarantine Partytime!

So, of course, we can't do a real party because quarantine right now, but hey! I can party all by myself orrrr, turn on a DJ online and PAARRRRTTTAAAYYYY! So I did the latter! Yes, I was alone but it didn't matter! There was a party online and all I had to do was stream him right into my home! Thank goodness for the Internet. So, for a few hours I heard some great tunes from a cool DJ and I never felt one bit alone with the tunes streaming online!

This is the ZFG JULIANNA'S DARKNESS sweater, find her at The Dark Side 5 all month long. There are 20 textures in this set (some singles available separately) and all are things we have all thought and maybe have not spoken out loud (or maybe you have!)! Sizes included are Bellezas, Slinks and Maitreya and there is an alpha included too. Come by and pick up the best of sarcasm you can find from ZFG at The Dark Side 5! This event ends on April 30th.

The shorts seen here are also from ZFG! These are the ZFG DAISY SHORTS #10 found only at the Gacha Life event! Mesh Body sizes included in each gacha win are for Bellezas, Slinks, Tonics and Maitreya. I am wearing them on the Belleza Freya Mesh Body in these photos. There is also the Daisy Shirt gacha and the Claude Shirt gacha for the guys (with many mesh body sizes)! The Gacha Life ends on April 30th.

And a few more quotes from the ZFG Julianna's Darkness pack:

ZFG - JULIANNA'S DARKNESS SWEATER

So I partied on and on and on into the early hours of the morning! I can't wait to get out and share all this sarcasm with whomever I come across!

TOURYUUMON - MANEKI NEKO AVATAR - RAINBOW LORIGRIFF SKIN / MOD

The {NB} Maneki Neko avatars were very popular at the recent Hullabazoo event and now, Touryuumon has created this Rainbow Lorigriff Skin for the Maneki Neko avatar. You do need to have purchased one of the {NB} Maneki Neko Avatars from the gacha at NutBusterz, plus the Maneki Neko BLUE BUDGIE Domestic Gryphon add-on to create this avatar. This package includes the skin and gryphon parts appliers only, no avatar. You can also use the skin applier alone on the Maneki Neko as it comes from the gacha. Still just as colorful as seen below. These avatars and add-ons come with the kit to create your own skins/mods for the avatar. This mod is such a cutie!

TOURYUUMON - MANEKI NEKO AVATAR - RAINBOW LORIGRIFF SKIN / MOD

Find this avatar in the Touryuumon store on the Casseopeia sim.

This purchase benefits Relay for Life. Come help us raise money for a great cause!
