Forgotten Angel

I wanted to feature the new wings/poses from HISPose, one of the best makers specialized in props/poses for men (or angels), and Forgotten City seemed like the right place for that.  What would an angel do in a forgotten city, built over centuries and then abandoned?

The wings are color change and there are actually 6 poses in the set at the very reasonable price of just 100l. The A:S:S kilt & belt is an Avenue Magazine Readers gift found at Zenshi, and the pants are one of the gifts from (Red)Sand for the Hollywood event. If you haven't been to Hollywood go there before it ends on the 14th - you will be opening "swagbags" from all the participants for days.

A Forgotten Angel...

Silver Lining

Silver Lining is the latest color-themed hunt from Monochrome Hunts and there is a nice range of items to be had (I'm featuring the furniture from Pestique, Circa & Estatica). The gifts cost 5L, but are worth far more than that - check their blog for photos of most of the gifts.

Today is also the last day I think for the Black Event on the Wash Sim (everything at 10l), where I picked up some excellent textures from Timeless Textures and Far Concepts that fit well with the theme of the post.

Hints & Slurls for hunts mentioned in this post: Silver Lining Hunt

Air

Dirty Little Secret has an excellent gift in the Something Old, Something New Hunt: a fully furnished, multi-level build called Air. The house features skylight ceilings, glass walls, exterior staircases, multiple patio areas with draped fabrics and a water surround with trees. The furniture is soft-linked with the build and available in a separate pack, so you can keep what you want (or use it in other builds). I've added some pieces from End of Daze that work well in the space.

Tash Porthos of Dirty Little Secret is also celebrating the anniversary of her store with a ton of group gifts for men & women and the DLS group is free to join until the end of the month. Join the group for her latest Mesh gifts (and stay in it because Tash is always generous).
