I was at Nomine getting really frustrated with hunting at the last minute for their zombiepopcorn gift when I remembered that I wanted to try the new hair demos. Well. That darn Nomine tricked me into falling in love!This hair makes me feel all romantic somehow. Watch out ya'll, Sileny is feeling saucy! xD
I am doing one of the awesome new blogger challenges lined up, this one being to show off items we have had for one or more years! With so many people coming and going in SL a year can be a pixel lifetime. I buy multiple items *every day* so often even old favorites get lost in the inventory vortex of doom.I had to bust out this outfit by Artilleri since I have had it for over three years. Yes, THREE years, and it still looks better quality than most new releases from other stores. This is quite a feat! And, well, look how cute it makes me butt look :D The skin is one from Chai, which is owned by the same owner as L. Fauna. Chai skins were early favorites of mine and I have had this bad boy since 2008. I think I have every makeup in several tones from this particular skin line xD I added some "modern" cleavage to it from Ayumi because my current av is kind of flat chested and it looked weird with the low cut shirt >.> This skin line is still a favorite of mine, years after it was released. Worn: Shirt and Pants: Artilleri (3+ years) Skin: Chai (2+ years) Hair: SLink (1 year) Shoes: Maitreya (Approx. 2 years, still free in subscriber) Glasses: Insolence (3+ years) Necklace: Caroline's (Approx. 2 years) Bracelets: Armidi (Recent Acquisition but was not created recently) Cleavage: Ayumi (recent acquisition) Eyes: Wasabi Pills (Approx. 1 year, still free by the lucky chair) **Most items are still available for purchase; I did not, however, check to make sure that *all* of them are
Cabaret is the new set from Reasonable Desires and even though my computer has been uncooperative about taking pictures I had to wear this anyway. It's a 100% my style and if I didn't wear it I would cry o.oThe outfit comes with ten million options, including top hot, various forms of cigarette, monocle, stockings rolled up or down, lingerie, corset, garters, on and on. Even a barrel to pose on! The poses themselves are also from Reasonable Desires, some are even free!
A couple weeks ago I found out that my friend of nearly a decade died of a drug overdose. While I was doing the Beat Clash hunt it reminded me of our old punk rock days, going to dirty basement shows, sitting on the floor against brick walls, drinking cheap beer, not caring if the music was good as long as it was loud.I decided to do a look that resembled her as a little tribute. It might seem silly to do an SL fashion blog post about a lost RL friend but considering how much time I spend on this cartoon life I think it's fitting I remember her in this one as well as the real one.I am going to miss you even though we didn't see much of each other at the end there. You always made me laugh and you always wore the silly corsets I made you. Hope you're in a better place now. Worn: Jacket: Rosso, free Eyebrow Piercing: Deviant Girls, free Stockings and Garter: Sheer, 50L each Shorts: Rosso, 50L Boots: J's Skin: Den-Dou, 200L gacha prize Hair: Truth, on sale Poses: Marukin Tank Top: Dilly Dolls Eyeliner: Mango, Mango!, 15L gacha prize (Everything in this post is super cheap. My friend hated paying a lot for clothes. D.I.Y. or Die as they say! Here goes a song from her fave band to end this post off with the proper punk rock feel):
This new dress from Dilly Dolls has me torn between doll and vampire...so let's just say dollpire!The dress comes in a ton of colors and I had to do a closer shot for you to see all the detail.

I have been in love with this dress from Deviant Girls for a while now and when I realized I hadn't blogged it I was like :O Must blog it now!The detail is amazing. The skirt is made from feathers, hangers, and all sorts of tossed away items a strange crow might use for a nest. The neck piece is lovely and doesn't remove my necklace when I wear it! Like all Deviant Girls items this dress is full of detail and the quality is far above par. Worn: Dress: Deviant Girls Hair: Fashionably Dead Skin: Mango, Mango!

I finally went to the Potter's Field event and wow....I was so impressed!! Everything there is so gorgeous. One of my fave finds in the Mistress outfit from Djinn & Tonic. The clothes remind me of some sort of old sci-fi movie alien woman. This is always a good thing.The parasol makes the whole thing feel very surreal. Are the candles on top forever lit in honor of her lost love? Worn: Outfit (Includes clothing, parasol, monocle): Djinn & Tonic at Potter's Field Boots: SLink Hair: Clawtooth by Clawtooth Skin: Mango, Mango! Poses: !Bang and Vivaposes
I want the Platinum Hunt to start now. With Designers like Adam N Eve, Magika, League, Atomic, Pididdle, Ploom, Baiastice and more who wouldn't get a little pouty at having to wait?? Worn In Photo: Hair: Magika Skin: Adam N Eve Shirt: League
In case you don't know what the Platinum Hunt is here's the 411: All items in the hunt are NEW and EXCLUSIVE and meant to show the best quality the designer has, not some last minute thrown together cast off. The items are 10L, not 0L, which I wholeheartedly approve of! The items shown in this post are NOT from the hunt! They are currently available items. The hunt doesn't start until the 8th :(
Sophia my love, where have you been all my life? You are gorgeous and you make me feel beautiful.
Yeah, I've got a serious love thing for the new line of dark skins from Adam n Eve. They're my absolute favorite skins to date. There are 4 tones available from a buttery toffee to a deep, dark chocolate, all of which are expertly made and absolutely beautiful. (This is tone 3.) There's an awesome selection of makeups and I love them all, which *never* happens. (My weaknesses are natural skins and skins with red red lips, and this skin has both!)
I also love my Clawtooth hair, and this Haven Designs dress I picked up a few weeks ago, and this dainty jewelry from Monkee and... and... Yeah, I'm just in love with everything.
