Shine with I.M.Collection


  • This weekend's offering for Glorius Days @ I.M.Collection is a sexy dress which comes in both satin and sparkles. Perfect for clubbing or just hanging out on your balcony, it features ruffled sleeves and comes in red or blue to fit a variety of body types.
  • Wear your Glorious Days Group tag for the best price.


  • I paired the Shine Dress with I.M.Collection's gartered River Boots [40 colors], which you'll find by going through the room to the right as you enter the store and then wandering into the next room (I'll be honest, I was guided by the picture of the handsome guy hanging between the shoe collections and the holiday wear in the next room.)

Fields of Flowers... or Maybe Mushrooms


  • It's always nice to have a pretty but practical outfit to go exploring around the grid. The fat pack of Milia Jeans from Purple Moon [PM] available @ the May Designer Showcase is a perfect base for strong outfits. 
  • The denim textures are authentic, and the embroidered accents are beautifully done. [7 with colored flowers, 7 with white flowers, 7 plain]. There is a pocket chain just to let others know you may have pretty flowers on your pants, but you aren't somebody to be taken lightly


  • I combined the PM Jeans with an Asha Top from AnaStyle . I couldn't resist this wine version. The tops come in 5 colors or a fatpack and Ana's jeans come in 14 textures and a fatpack.
  • Earrings from AeternovA combine Classic Pearls with metal strings and a hud of optional textures.

Fantasy Faire ~ Last Looks

  • Fantasy Faire is over for 2025. Every year there is a sense of bittersweet nostalgia as the Fairelands sink into the mists. Fantasy Faire is my favorite event in SL. Nothing else even comes close to matching the beauty, wonder and sense of comradery that the Faire invokes. You'll see many folks with Fairelander as their last name. They paid for the right to change their legacy name to "Fairelander" in order to retain some of the spirit of Faire.
  • Every year I have a stack of pictures that I've taken, fully intending to use them in well-thought-out and meaningful blogs. This will NOT be that blog. These are just some of the memories I will carry forward into 2025. I have my own reason to Relay and it's too raw to share here, but maybe next year I'll be able to write one on those inspirational "Why I Relay" pieces. For now, here are some last looks @ my Fantasy Faire 2025





  • Last Look @ Pixiedust featuring 
  • Arkona Dawn Court Dress / Tara Dawn Wings and Head Wings
  • Female Warrior Armor by Mesh Entity
  • Norwegian Forest Cat companion by CKit Falconry






  • Last look at Lavendell featuring Faunus Mycelia Mushroom for female and male

Designer Showcase May 5 - 20

  • Bright colors, casual style and comfort are the watchwords for the May round @ Designer Showcase.
  • Showing a bodysuit from I.M.Collection that checks all the boxes. I wore this outfit to various activities around the grid for 3 days and love it! It moves well when dancing at the club and is comfy when relaxing with friends. 
  • Body suit comes in sizes for most mesh bodies. It features high cut slits on the legs and includes 24 colors in the hud
  • Keylani Mules match the bodysuit perfectly, as well as lots of other outfits with 68 colors to choose from.
  • Nails from January include Manicures and Pedicures for the built-in mesh body nails. You don't have to struggle with adding nails or alpha-ing anything. Just pick a color and go! [21 bright metallic colors]

Fantasy Faire ~ For the Guys


William here. As is tradition, I have taken over Aznana's blog to show you what can be done with Men's items available at Fantasy Faire. I've included info such as body, head and skin types so that you can have an easier time pulling together a look. 

Male avatars who enjoy role play or fantasy, this is your Faire! Check HERE for pictures of some of the men's stuff to be found all over Fantasy Faire!
These pictures feature some of some of my personal favorites. They hardly scratch the surface of goods available. Today's looks are military-based, the next blog will include some fantasy looks. You may notice that I'm holding a sword in each picture, but the swords are from different sources, showing how important that particular item is to the well-dressed man.

And BTW the Lindens have extended the Faire a couple more days to give you even more time to shop and explore. It will now close on May 6.
