Sita and Persephone... @ Swank

She calls to me day and night, asking me to rescue her from her foolishness. She was abducted by Hades in search of pomegranates, flowers, and seeds. The Queen of the Underworld longs to be returned to Adonis, and who can blame her? I am drawn to her temple-wearing Meli pants and top by Viona, which are made for classic, curvy, Larax, legacy, Maitreya (worn), and reborn. Best of all, they come with fab color-changing hud and glove warmers.

I love the uber bandaid top and the pants with an artful leather stripe down the center. So sexy even Persephone thought they were hotter than Hades!  This is available at Swank and is a must-have for sure.

I combined this look with the Nidhar Armlet by DB (Druken Brokkrj) that graces my arms with precious jewels and metals... I like that!  This is so dramatic and can be used with so many looks. Nidhar is made for kupra, kupra maze, legacy, legacy maze, maitreya, maitrea maize, prima, reborn, and reborn maze.  Best of all, this unique arm jewelry comes with a color-changing hud that is fun to play with.

A Ravishing Demon - Purple Moon at Swank

My name is Lilith, and I am the first female to be created. I was cursed by God. Because of submission, I abated.  I would not heed Adam's call because I was his equal and more! Many have slandered my name, but know this I will never submit. Beguiling and ravishing the new exclusive at Swank called Lilith is ideal for Halloween. It is made for maitreya (worn), larax, legacy, reborn, and reborn waifu. It comes with shoes, wings that are scripted, and those that are not as well as a fabulous headpiece of horns embellished by gold flares.

I paired this look with another exclusive from Swank by Zuri: the Arachne Goddess Elite Set, which comes with a fabulous web-shaped necklace and earrings that would make any spider proud! I love this necklace by Zuri that is an exclusive at Swank. It's complex web design glitters in the night and is so intriguing. This set called Arachne Goddess comes with this fabulous black steel necklace and earrings set with rose cut diamonds for a subtle glitter effect.

Sita and the Witching Hour....

In the witching hour’s deep, dark embrace, my cauldron bubbles in a secret house made of spellbinding old timber and colorful handblown glass. Under the moon’s silvery, watchful eye, I cast my spells in a whisper on the pine-scented wind... that carries my deepest desires through the trees... straight to his heart of grim rapacious delight.

If you plan on working your magic through the night don't miss this cute costume called The Witch by Old World Fantasy/Kitty Creations. It is a true delight that comes with w cute frock, a necklace in red and purple, and a stocking tattoo. It also comes with a fantastically detailed hat that is belted with a flower and spooky spiderweb.  The Witch is made for hourglass,  maitreya (worn), and physique.

Sita and Bathory

 Oracle of the shadows in the forest of whispers I feel your power flow around me like a whirlwind of lost souls roaming in the dark. Do you remember how to embrace the flames? Dreaming of the 9th circle I am shattered into 1000 pieces - a knife in my back... immersed in the beauty of the void, I await as he becomes the Sabbatical goat...in brush strokes of blood, I feel his ferocity.

I love this new Halloween-inspired gown called Bathory by Luxe Paris, exclusive at this month's Swank. It is a finely stitched silver gown brushed with blood—how perfectly gruesome! Bathory is made for maitreya (worn) lara x, gen curvy x, kupra, and legacy. In addition to the gown with its lovely off-the-shoulder puff sleeves, Bathory comes with a spooktacular red crown... perfect for the Queen of Demons!

The allure of Acantha Stripes

 I heard that the circus was coming to town—aerialists in glittering sequin costumes, colorful clowns in phantasmagorical wigs, lions, tigers, and bears—oh my! I decided to wear a new Victorian chic gothic-inspired black and white striped dress called Acantha Stripes by Anastyle. This cute outfit comes with shoes, stockings, one black and one striped, and a fabulous hat! This is made for bombshell, legacy, perky, reborn, waifus, and Larax.

I really love the look and feel of this outfit. It is ideal if you are in a Victorian Goth mood this Halloween. Best of all there is a matching suit for men!

Secret Circus @ Swank

Come and stand before me - center stage. In the fading light dusty serene silence surrounds us. Get ready to be seduced by black-and-white, by the grandeur and drama, by a costume of conflicting emotions looking at her you never know where you stand. The Harlequin laughs and laughs as she carries a special potion down the stairs, beckoning you to take a sip. Do you dare? 

I love the Goth vibe of this fabulous Harlequin-type costume by V8 Underground Hypnotic Skull Outfit that is so much fun to wear with its bold black and white stripes and fanciful neckpiece that sets this look off perfectly especially when balanced by thigh hi boots... oh la la.  Hypnotic is made for larax, maitreya, kupra, legacy, reborn, larax petite

The Halloween Demon!

 He asked are you an angel or a demon? I think it is far more fun around Halloween to be a demon... can you feel my heat in this sexy demon costume?  An angel can whisper soft sweet lies... promising brighter days.... while a demon shadows hollows in my heart....

A crimson demon lights up the night like a flame that flickers in the fog... lighting up parts of you that have been buried for too long... will you lose yourself in a garden of thorns this Hallow's Eve? Some will call me eternal... as I make my way to a lava lake where the hemlocks lean and loom a lonely spirit with human eyes.

Four Picks from Swank's Halloween Shoptacular!

Fall is in the air along with my all-time favorite holiday... Halloween! I love not only the candy but also the clothes and all the hunts happening across the grid this month. One of my favorites is Swank, they are not only offering great Halloween apparel for men and women, but they are also hosting a quality hunt. Check out this gift from Sascha's Designs... a fabulous orange jumpsuit made for almost every mesh body out there.

For a sexy Halloween ensembled by Sascha's designs check out Ashling made for maitreya (worn) larax, Belleza, waifu, reborn, and legacy. I love the stylish and sleek black pants and the crop top and jacket. This outfit also comes with a tub top making it two looks in one! 

I paired Ashling with this gorgeous new jewelry by AngelicUS called Telmma another special at Swank. I love its rustic spear-shaped pendant and earrings. You can change the color of the metal as well as the color of the stone.

Another really cool outfit is called the Gothic Cross  Hooded Cloak - it is perfect to meet someone special under the soft light of an October moon... I especially like the detail around my waist with a corset-like cross that sets this cloak off perfectly. The cloak is made for regular mess bodies from small to XL plus legacy, belleza, reborn, slink, tonic, voluptuous, and maitreya.

I paired the Gothic Cross Hooded cloak with new festive nail polish by Luna called Gothic  hud consisting of four different patterns that are white on black or black on white, some embellished by a gothic rose.

A Trio of Fashion by Virtual Diva Couture

Laura is made for Maitreya, (worn), bombshell, kupra, LaraX, Legacy, Reborn, and Waifu. This dress is available as a fat pack of various patterns and solid colors or is sold individually.

Belts made a strong comeback in 2024, reminiscent of the Y2K era, and this new dress called Edge is all about the belt.  The oversized belt adds dimension and structure to this outfit, transforming the sheath top and straight skirt into something really special. The pockets and scalloped neckline add visual interest. Belts cinched at the waist will enhance your silhouette and create an hourglass figure... oh la la!

Magic in the Air @ Swank....

 Yes, can you feel it? I do... and you will --- there is something so wonderful about SL -- it is an escape from the daily grind into the world of fantasy and fun for so many of us and this new look at Swank is a winner... I feel like the goddess Artemis and elegant all at the same time.  Ok, let me explain.... I wear a headpiece called Mabon Ritual Horns - Deity by Goddess Creations. These realistically sculpted antlers are beautiful and are embellished with sunflowers and the enigmatic face of Janus facing forward. That gives me hope. I love the leather tied on my antlers... and the leaf crown surrounding Janus.

I combined this with an Old World Fashion, Kitty Creations called Rohwan outfit. The Fitmesh top and skirt are made for ebody, reborn, freya, isis, venus, legacy, Maitreya (worn) hourglass, physique, and fitmesh XL-XS. Rohwan also comes with a color-changing hud in eight gorgeous colors. This outfit is so Stevie Nicks to me... with the flowing  gypsy skirt that has mystical symbols embroidered around my waist for protection...  and the way it flows... is poetic like the earth speaks to me... with tales of ribbon, buttons, lace, embroidery, and talismans...  only to know that the tide of life flows ever onward for those that dare to experience.
