Daisy Falls

March 30, 2023Emeraldmist NightfireLeave a comment

I love daisies and collect daisy themed items. This dress by Belle Epoch was a 2023 New Year’s Eve Hunt item. I put it aside until it was warm enough to wear. Paired with a few other daisy themed items, it makes a perfect outfit! I just had to go to Daisy Falls* to snap this selfie.

The inspiration for this image came from two items I bought on sale over the last few days. The first was the No_Zen hair by No_Match, and the other was this beautiful kimono style dress by Fire Within, purchased during this week’s 25L Tuesday sale.

Summer Candy

August 20, 2019August 17, 2019Emeraldmist NightfireLeave a comment

The latest creation by b[ELLE] made me think of summer candy — the candy necklaces, dots stuck on paper and strips of sugary gel.

Love the Beach, Hate the Sand

August 15, 2019August 12, 2019Emeraldmist NightfireLeave a comment

I really need to work on my inventory, but here I am sweeping sand off my deck again. I love living on the beach but the sand is a pain in my castle!

Head — Lelutka — Chloe
Body — Maitreya
Skin — Pink Fuel — Anja II, apricot
Hair — Wasabi — Edie
Dress — !gO! — Rachel Apron Dress. This was a gacha prize, 75L
Pose — Lorien — Sweep Chore Broom, Take a Rest. 60L on Marketplace. Adjusted slightly with Animare
Backdrop — Lounge Chairs are by Soy, “Outdoor Chaise Lounger” and the house is Beachcomber’s Cabin by Simple Things.

Lighting and Extra Sand Details — Phototools Epi Vintage Light, Photoshop
- Note on lighting: I loved the shadows in Epi Vintage but it has a yellowish caste, as do many of the Windlight settings. I countered this with a blue filter in Photoshop to bring out truer tones.

Spotlight on Magika Rowan

August 12, 2019Emeraldmist NightfireLeave a comment

Magika just released this new hairstyle called Rowan. I’ve just found my new favorite braided style.

Not only is this hair new, but the HUD has been completely re-programmed. Everything loads much more quickly and the tint picker options can be imported and exported. Now you can save your favorite tints and use them again and again! More information available from the Magika group.

I don’t usually do an extra post in a day, but I had to rush this one to the blog and Flickr. It’s marvelous!
