I always like to do a casual and formal shoot for Saint Patrick’s Day, one of the lovely holidays in world. This year, besides the computer needing replacing, RL work and home has kept me hopping, and I haven’t been able to do many things I wanted to do. But I did manage to squeeze in a few fast photos of this beautiful gown very early yesterday….
The dress is from PurpleMoon, and is called Serafina. It also has a large production-show skirt that I didn’t take the time to fiddle with, but is still beautiful. For me, this skirt is enough, along with the lovely high collar behind my head. (I have a thing for dragon-wing collars, I guess….) The collar is removable, of course, as is the excellent orchid-bloom detail on the breast; but who would want to do away with such niceties? I used for hair an old ‘do from Sinsation — yes, Sinnocent Mirabeau did do some sane hairstyles during her time in world, and this is one of my nicest short bobs. Along with this is a new eyeshadow from Miamai, one of their usual package of five at a time.
The jewelry suite of necklace and earrings came, I believe, from last year’s Jewelry Fair; it is by RH Engel, and this is the first time I’ve worn them. (Gotta clean out that inventory sometime…!) I matched this with….
…a beautiful emerald bracelet from EarthStones, and a big, splashy, Art Deco-like cocktail ring. Erin go bragh!!
