Wishful

Ran and I used to do quite a few hunts in SL, though it has been a good while since we had the time to do so. Plus, our inventories are insane enough as it is, at least mine. But the Magic & Romance hunt organized by Morgaine Price of Mer-Elf Creations did tempt me to do some store-hopping since it is all about fantasy-inspired clothing. It is also quite a small hunt, so it won’t overwhelm you if you give it a try.

And if you do, make sure to check out the regular on-sale items offered by the stores too. Such as this forthcoming release from Mer-Elf Creations, the Wish gown.

Style Notes & Slurls

Skin: N2 Elizabeth Tone 2 Sphynx 2 by Blowpop
Hair: Marianne II Dark Copper by Jolie Femme
Clothes: Wish Red by Mer-Elf Creations

Wish, here seen in a lovely rich red with gold embroideries (which are fairly nice and dark and not too yellow), comes with two skirt options, a choice between a jeweled belt and a flexi belt, two sleeve options and add-ons such as a cloak, a sculpted hood and a circlet. The cloak in particular appealed to me, it really adds something to this style of gown.

There is also a separate add-on pack for the Wish gown with pieces for putting together a silk or a camisk that can be worn in several different ways. Altogether, the gown can work in a variety of fantasy settings.

The hair is once again Marianne II from Jolie Femme, here in the lovely Dark Copper shade that also is included in the black & brown pack, and the skin is the oh so pretty Elizabeth from Blowpop.
