DUCHESS OF GIEDI PRIME

Appropriate wear for the nobility of outer space. I thought maybe Barsoom, the Courts of Chaos or perhaps Giedi Prime?



The jeweled, epauletted, white leather finery with diamonds, pearls and platinum embossed scrollwork is fine enough for the proudest nobles. NV's "Ascension of Silver" outfit also includes some large spiky jewels and a big fluffy ballgown skirt, but I don't think a big skirt and a pistol wear well together.



And I considered adding a big fur cape, ermine or something, then recalled the wise advice of Ms. Edna Mode:

"NO CAPES!!"

GIMME SUGAR

Digging around my bloggitybloggage closet I ran across a neglected bag of things from the Albero Gacha Festival. (Yes, I should be more organized.) My favorite schtuffs were these sweets. The Ring Pop took me way back but I restrained myself from popping more and more coins in the vendor to get all the flavors. And who doesn't like fruity popsicles? You know you love them. All calories hand-removed by elves.

It isn't too late for you to go to the Gacha Festival for a bit of cheap fun. If any of you haven't tried one of these events before, these inexpensive little vending machines randomly choose an item for you. Almost all of these things are transferrable so you can give any duplicates to your friends, or maybe trade to get the items you want.

Each popsicle comes with a matching tattoo layer that colors your lips and tongue. *grins*

BURNING

Lady Thera's Workshop specializes in gowns that are inspired by artworks. This one was inspired by the famous portrait of Empress Theodora, but wandering through her shop is a wonderland of Van Gogh, Dali, Magritte, Monet, Klimt ... even a few arty suits upstairs for the men.

I couldn't help myself. I went back to the Conflagration to dance. Have you been there yet? The builders wanted you to imagine what it would look like if you could go inside your inventory and look around at the digital art inside. This place burns with blue and golden fire, with lines and binary codes, symbols and sculpture and music. Somewhere beneath I even found a little club.

Not to be missed!
