MEET MISTER DARCY

... Today I am a Matchmaker. (Call me Miss Woodhouse.)



Clementine is finally old enough to be formally introduced to her prospective mate. Meet Mister Darcy. From the look in her eye, Love at First Sight ... and she is beginning to become accustomed to his presence.



Clementine and Mister Darcy are breedable Starter Horses from Awesome Breed Creations, from their shop at the Christmas Expo. Starter Horses appear to be simply ordinary bay horses, but have hidden recessive traits that can appear in their children. Their offspring will be eligible for breeding, or for training to Race. I can't wait to see the babies!

THE BLACK WIDOW

The Widow in Black. Is she a figure to be Pitied? Rescued? Feared? Her beauty is seductive, but being close to her is always a risk.

This vintage ballgown is a lovely backdrop for the sophisticated necklace I purchased at Alchemy's Attic. (I added a lace collar and black undershirt to the gown to provide a dark dramatic backdrop behind the necklace.)

Like a widow confined to her mourning garb, a black widow spider is trapped in the amber charm, preserved in her beauty forever.

Necklace: Alchemy Immortalis “The Black Widow Amber Prayer Necklace”
Gown: To-a-T “Edwardian Blossom – Black Orchid 1903 Ball Gown”
Gloves: Mimikri “Gloves/black”
Lace Collar: PixelDolls “Bella.Black.LaceCollar” (from the Bella Dress)

Skin: Your Skin and Your Shape “Emma Milk”

Love,
Serene
