Happy 4th Rezday to hyasynth Tiramisu!

T'was yesterday, but I was too busy dancing at her wonderful party. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it! In celebration I'm presenting several of hya's most recent delights.



First up is the Lottie Suite in Sterling, which can be edited to any color your heart desires :) It can also be mixed and matched as above. On the right I'm wearing the ballgown without the shrug. On the left I'm wearing the shrug and top with the Pixel Dolls Comfort Skirt in black. The pictures don't do the detail justice.

On the right my hair is ETD's Aiiyanna in Auburn Burnt. The mask is a color change one from Illusions. On the left hair is ETD Aveda Short Bob in Sienna. Shoes are the hyasynths from Shiny Things. My skin in both pictures is from PXL Creations --probably CatEyes/Flamenco lips.





Next is Severina, named for Severina Dollinger, the makers of boots extraordinaire:) Again the textures are amazing, especially on the lace neckpiece and the lace cuffs. It comes with the lolly skirt and the open bustle tails. And hya recently added some wonderful colors to your choices. My boots are the old ETD Calf Boots, no longer available, alas :( Hair is Grazia2 from Truth in Cranberry I think... Skin is PXL Creations Kim in Natural.




Last, but not least, is a recent Lucky Chair prize -- bits and pieces from her Scraps & Gutter Glitter separates colored in the Gay Pride rainbow. I *think* I added a shirt from the Voltaire Suit. Shoes are Periquita's S-Steps in Red. My earrings and necklace are Alienbear's Pearl Teardrops in Black. Hair is ETD's Loraine 2 in Auburn. Skin is PXL's Kim I think.

I hope you can see both the quality and variety of hya's work. While her audience is predominantly Goth, don't ignore the total wearability of her styles, particularly for formal parties. Happy Rezday hya <3

hya & June

Two of the most creative and prolific designers on the grid are hyasynth Tiramisu of ~silent sparrow~ and June Dion of BareRose Tokyo. Each of them reaches an wide audience that overlaps in their work in the Gothic strand of pixel fashion. I'm almost in time for the 3 year celebration at BR, but woefully dilatory in my blogging of hya's Dominion Suit. Bad Sam :(

So I will start with hya's :)



Hya helped me pick the Dominion in Rust for me -- she is right -- goes with the red hair I prefer. The layers, the textures, the details are superb examples of her work. Although I wasn't brave enough to wear the plunging cleavage [I know--chicken!], so I popped the corset from the Sepia Coronis Suit underneath. I particularly like the shadow effect of the gray/black on the inside, an effect that makes the Rust seems more, well RUST :) The pictures don't do the textures justice at all. Go take a look for yourself!

My hair is Morgana, from Bewitched, found in their clearance section. Boots are my ever-trusty Calf Boots from ETD. My skin is the special Shoujo Black Swan #1 from Fleur.

"It's Only a Paper Moon" is a wonderfully light-hearted and, at the same time, sophisticated costume from the hands of June Dion. BR specializes in outfits with lots of options, so this is a bit of a change.


The image of paper swirling is very effective -- the shoes, I have to think, were made intentionally chunky to complement the outfit. The hat is the "pièce de résistance." With a gold-trimmed cream mask I'd be set for a masquerade ball! And the ARC is surprisingly low for such a detailed creation.

Hair is ETD's Bonita in Strawberry. Skin is Fleur Vivant Lustrous 3 in Buff.

Hommage to hya :)

Yesterday was hyasinth Tiramisu's 3rd Rezday and she was kind enough to invite me to the pre-party. I looked through my outfits from ~silent sparrow~ and decided on the Beloved Suite in black -- the Lolita. I didn't wear all the bits and pieces as hya always provides more options than just about any creator whose work I know.

What I want show is the amazing detail in what is, essentially a "black" dress. The shirt and the jabot are rich in visible detail. I also wish to announce that the skirt dances divinely. :) Please click on the photo collage to see more of the detail.


Hair is ETD Patricia in Smoke Faded, skin is the special Fleur Boutique Shoujo skin made for The Black Swan project. I'm wearing makeup #3, in which Roslin matches the lip color to that the beak of the black swan. Shoes are ETD's Starley Pumps in Silver, and Celestial Studio's Week of Love group gift fishnet tights.

Here's wishing hya many more happy rezdays. Thanks so much hya for your beautiful creations and your friendship :)
