Like many others, I do try to send out a holiday card each year. I usually get it done before now, but I've been busy and couldn't find that right look for it. Well, that is until this morning, when I received a group notice from PurpleMoon Creations. As you may know, PurpleMoon took the 2013 Avi Choice Award for Favorite Women's Apparel which is well deserved. So, back to the notice. I opened it up and read Poulet's heartfelt holiday greeting, and then opened the group gift photo and instantly knew that I had found my Christmas card outfit!
I'm sure I'll post a few more times before Christmas, but I hope that you and yours will have the happiest and brightest Christmas holidays! Be safe wherever your travels lead you this year.

The other night, I was out ice skating at
Calas Galadhon, who has their entire park beautifully made over for the holidays. As I usually do, I was camming around to see what was going on when I spotted an absolutely gorgeous dress. I promptly IM'd the woman wearing it and asked where I could buy it. Yes, I could have inspected it, but remember, I've been gone a year and these things don't always occur to me ;)
Anyway, it turns out that the wearer of the dress was also the creator, Maizon Rayna - owner of
Terra d'ombrA, and the dress was her new creation, Isabelle. After spending 10 minutes gushing at poor Maizon (I've always thought she was one of the most brilliant designers in SL), I HAD to have it. It took Maizon a couple of days to announce Isabelle's release, but the moment she did, I was right there buying it. At $L650, it's a little higher than my normal spending allowance, but so be it!
If you haven't been to Terra d'ombrA, go. Maizon has created some stunning works over the years. Maizon is Italian and it shows in her styling.
