Not an Australian Christmas – Gothmas Market

Did you know: The NEW Seasonal names have dropped? (info Here) If you wish to change your last/surname to one of the ones available (Resident even if not showing is considered your Surname) you also have the opportunity to change your first name included in the cost, or you can just change your first name if your last name is one you are fond of. So anyone that wants to drop some numbers or capitalise something they lower cased in the past, you can do so, you can even go a full change, and pop out the other side a new you. If you are not hiding from anyone, I suggest putting your original name in your profile somewhere so that perhaps you are not lost to us all though, because finding people that do name changes is a whole thing I did not expect to add to my list of skills…what do you do in Second Life that you never imagined you would?

You have already experienced my American Summer rebellion this year, but Christmas hits a bit different. While it is sweltering down here, and my Vornado is going flat out, I have already watched 18 Christmas themed movies in the past few weeks, and I get very enamored by the whole look and style of it all. So while I cannot promise that I will truly Christmas Winter Wear this season, this was too fun not to do. It also worked out so well with this Beach Please coverup I think I have mentioned wanting to wear many times before, and every time something went wrong or I got distracted. I finally achieved my goal with the help of the lovely AlaskaMetro, who created these fabulous nordic inspired leggings that are at the current SL Christmas Expo event. Back to the coverup though, it was created to be worn over a bikini from the set, and it is hot, I love it, especially when you have a solid or sheer option on the HUD so that you can actually see the bikini if you choose. I fell hard for it as a top though, at least once a week I have planned to feature it, having already done the bikini long ago. I think I am going to beg Cynthia to make this as an actual top though in future, so it can be worn over mesh leggings or jeans etc, or maybe even just a crop version of it, because honestly the sleeves and neckline of it are what have me so smitten.

The leggings are a perfect look for it, and they being bakes on mesh, gave me the perfect fit for these adorable slippers with socks inbuilt by Breathe, these I will not lie, make me giggle so much, because I would never, probably also because no matter how cold it gets down here, it has never gotten that cold that this would happen, so this is my playing dress-up so to speak, which is just fun, also gave me a chance to wear my arm warmers by Fashionably Dead again, love these things. The beautiful ornament that I am holding is one of the many Gothmas Market items available as of later today, the soft opening is in full swing if you are in the Juniper Events Group, more info on that below. I am also wearing from the same event, these ornamental earrings, that are PBR and just make me feel all Merry and Bright.

Now to my face, I have been all about the lashes lately, and these new ones by Nuve are fantastic, options abound and you can use them in applier form for a variety of heads and brands. They are tintable in solids or in designated sections like shown, makes for a lot of fun for the holidays. Adding some star glitter and some beautiful make up options also from AlaskaMetro, I hit up her store hard the other day. Could not actually believe there was items that I did not already own, so it was a mix of shock and joy all at once. Rounding out the look with this delightful hair from lamb, an older style but that headband just made it all the more festive and perfect for the look.
