Another Halloween-themed photo shoot before the day comes! This time I was really inspired by the Julie gown from AZUL which comes in a Halloween version, complete with skeletal wings and little spiders crawling all over. I would say that this gown delivers more of a romantic/elegant vibe than a scary one so it’s great if you’re looking for a glamorous outfit for the occasion.
With an outfit like that, I knew I had to accessorize with a simple hair, so I picked a long straight hairstyle from Tableau Vivant, which is also a group gift that is still available in the store. There is a fee to join the group (if I recall, I joined when it was free). but the group gifts you receive throughout the year are rather worth it! Of course, for a more gothic themed makeup, I turn to the two brands you’ve seen me using for the past few posts, Nuuna and Shakeup!. And for the thigh high boots, they’re from FasterPussycat, which has lots of Halloween themed outfits out at the mainstore right now.
Have you gotten your Halloween costume yet? Only a few days left, so get to shopping!
Love, Kai

So, I’ve been experimenting with a slightly goth aesthetic with my looks recently, just check out my previous post for proof haha. So for this look I went towards the Elvira or Morticia Addams look. This gown, Iolanda, is a limited release by AZUL to celebrate the reopening of their main store. There are lots more beautiful gowns from their prior releases that are making a come back, so it is definitely worth a stop. The gown was accessorized with the steamer hair from .Olive., a gift from the Hair Fair for a more vintage hairstyle. Though the gift is now unavailable, I’m sure there are lots of other vintage hairstyles available too. I added a necklace from Pure Poison, which kinda resembled a choker to complete the look while still keeping within the theme.
This is a rather short post, but I do hope you enjoy it. An exciting photo shoot is coming up in preparation for the next post, so stay tuned!
Love, Kai

Omg it has been so long since I last blogged. It has been a month, I think! Well I have been rather occupied with RL so I’m only on SL for a few hours each day.
Besides I have also embarked on a few projects. The first, is that I’m now a model for the TEOM Magazine! The Evolution of Model (TEOM) Magazine is a rather young publication company so it’s great to work with them and grow in experience along with them. You’ll be seeing me in a spread done by Jackson in the October issue of the magazine so do watch out!
The second project, or rather, the second job, is with the prestigious BOSL Magazine! This time, my role is not a model, but a writer. For my first publication with them, the October issue too, I’m in charge of two articles! The first is a Top 5 Halloween List where I recommend the 5 exciting things in SL to do next month, and the other article is about a new designer, where I have featured the amazing Honey Bender-Auer and her newest label, Bender.
As such, I’ve decided to dedicate this post to Honey, for agreeing to do the interview and also giving me the opportunity to blog for her womenswear labels, both Bender and FasterPussyCat. The Carnivale Suit, which will be released soon, is part of their Fall collection, and features patterns and detailing on interesting textures, and also has a gothic theme to it. Taking style cues from Honey, I styled myself the same way. Dark eyeshadows from Nuuna, a latest release for LeLutka heads. It’s affordable, and comes in 10 different styles, from edgy to avant garde. The dark red lipstick comes from Shakeup!, a cosmetics brand that offers a wide range of lipsticks for LeLutka heads too. Whatever the style you want, they have it.
Contrasting the skin against the dark clothing, I chose the Europa skin tone from the default selection of Glam Affair skins and matched it with a dip-dyed red bob from Chemistry Hair. I absolutely adore the hairs from them, and I also got the Min hair from the label before this for my MVW Challenge, which, by the way I didn’t get through but it was a fantastic learning experience and I made friends!
You guys are also getting a sneak peek of the Fiero Sallow Heels from FasterPussyCat which will definitely be released soon in Honey’s store. I love those heels, they so playful but still edgy in itself so you can style them either way. Thank you, Honey!
More posts coming soon, I hope I do find time to style myself with cooler outfits so do check back often!
Love, Kai
