AT SWANK: LEGENDAIRE, LUMINESSE, MODERN COUTURE

Legendaire has created a very lovely dress for this round of Swank, the Victoria. This dress fits classic as well as Belleza and Maitreya. It comes with a HUD with four different dress print options to choose from. Besides this sweet owl, squirrel, and roses print, there is a floral print, and brown bead and black bead versions, too. This dress also comes with the boots!

Here, you can see the side of the dress with the squirrels on it.

Here is what the HUD looks like so you can see more clearly the other dress options.

Here, you can see the boots in more detail. Notice the intricate laces and bows!

Starting at the top, Modern Couture is offering this lovely Hera Gold Tiara. The tiara also comes in black and silver, and has three rows of bands adorned with pearls surrounded by petals.

Next, Luminesse has given us a lovely necklace and earrings set called Emma Roise, inspired by the Irish Song, "My Wild Irish Rose." I am wearing the Megan Gold set, with brown roses to match the brown in my Victoria dress as well as the gold in the Hera Gold Tiara.

Here, you can see the pieces of the Megan Gold set.

The Emma Roise also comes in Aine Gold, with pink roses, as you can see here.

AT SWANK: DECHE, 69 PARK AVENUE, ZURI JEWELRY, FLIPPANT, 3RD EYE PERCEPTIONS, POSESION

I love glitter, and I love unique, and this Deche Pelagic Gold gown gives me both, in abundance! The scallop design and slit on the side of the leg give this gown an extra dash of flash. There is an optional back piece, as well, which I have chosen to wear for the shoppers to see. This back piece gives even more flair to this exciting gown. Immediately, when I saw this gown, I knew I had to have it!

This gown comes in silver, as well. However, the gold and silver are available only in the fat pack of gowns, which includes blue, green, orange, pink, and purple, with a convenient HUD to quickly change between these colors. The gown comes in fitmesh, Belleza, Maitreya, and Slink. I am wearing the fitmesh.

This is what the gown HUD looks like, showing the five colors of gowns.

Stebi is wearing 69 Park Avenue's Luck of the Irish suit that comes in a subtle green and gold plaid. This suit comes with several options. It has a gold shirt, without tie and with tie, either to wear alone or with the jacket. This outfit also comes with dress shoes, which Stebi is wearing.

The suit pieces come in a variety of sizing, including standard, fitmesh, and for the Slink mesh male body.

The gown has a very intricate and elegant back, and you can see that here, along with that amazing back piece.

The very fantastical Rainbows and Legends Fountain comes from 3rd Eye Perceptions, a newcomer to Swank. Well, they certainly made a fine impression with their first offering. This fountain is gorgeous, not to mention very practical, with two color versions--light and dark, 14 single animations, rainbow water with sound, and resize by edit, as well as copy. Here, you can see this amazing design.

Once again, Zuri Jewelry has given us a stunning set, the Sari in Mocha/Emerald, which compliments this Pelagic gown to complete perfection. The Tikki Head Piece also comes in Emerald/Mocha, which has green pearls instead of mocha. The Mocha/Emerald pieces include the tiara, the head piece, the necklace, and the earrings. The bracelets come in Emerald/Mocha, with green pearls. All the pieces of this set can be bought separately.

Here, you can see my intricate ensemble of Mocha/Emerald pieces. Such an elegant and regal set from Zuri.

Zuri is well-known for finishing the backs of her pieces, and here you can see the backs of the earrings and the dangle on the clasp of the necklace.

Now, for a closer look at the Emerald/Mocha bracelets. So much detailed work has gone into the Sari set.

You also can see the cute nails from Flippant. These are the Serendipity nails, with gold glitter shamrocks. Here is the complete set of choices for the Serendipity set.

And, Zuri Jewelry has one last cherry on top. There is a Sari Belly Jewel gift that matches the rest of the pieces. You can see that here.

The theme for Swank this month is Luck of the Irish, naturally enough, and you can find exclusive designs from nearly 100 designers for fashion, beauty, home and garden, and even something for children. Everything is 300 lindens or less. Many of the designers also have placed gifts for the shoppers, as well, and there is a special treat this month: GACHAS! I will not admit to being a gacha addict or anything like that, of course.

Here is your ride to Swank.

MOONDANCE BOUTIQUE ADVENT GIFTS

Kat has done much work for this Advent Calendar to bring you 25 charming, enchanting, wonderful gifts, from jewelry to nail polishes. There are gifts for both women and men, so the gentlemen out there should be happy! These gifts will be gone after December 25. It only costs 50 lindens to join the group to get all these gifts, as well as having the benefits of being a VIP group member.

All these jewelry pieces come with a menu to change size, full bright, gem colors, and metal colors. There is an option to change individual pieces or all pieces at once. As is always the case with Moondance jewelry, there are many gem and metal options to choose from.

Today, because these jewelry pieces have all the color options and are very interchangeable, I am wearing pieces from different sets in a mix-and-match that works very well. I am wearing the moondance Boutique Kosetsu Headband and both left and right Kosetsu rings, the Moondance Boutique Tear Ornament Earrings, the Moondance Jewels Santa Clause Bracelets, and the Moondance Boutique Winter Snow Star Necklace. As you can see, all these pieces fit very well together. I also am wearing the Moondance Boutique Slink Winter Snow Star nail polish.

All the pieces together make a very charming ensemble.

Here is what the nail polish HUD looks like.
