Consulting the Mystic

Just a reminder that Mystical Market * closes on February 13th. 
If you haven't finished the L$5 hunt or if you were waiting to make that important purchase, now is the time to act, because these prices and EXCLUSIVES will soon disappear.

BTW, if something you purchased seems flat or duller than you think it should, try turning on your Advanced Lighting in graphics preferences. Many designers add materials to their work and these only show if advanced lighting is turned on (and it only shows on your screen and to others who have advanced lighting turned on.) Pic 2 above is with advanced lighting. The pic below is without advanced lighting.

Gothic Lace and Silver

Mystical Market * is a wonderful place to discover designers you may not have encountered at the big box events. The creators tend to be a bit eccentric, but that's a good thing if you enjoy unique creations. The fact that EVERYTHING at the event is discounted 25-50% off makes it even better! 
Check out the EXCLUSIVE items, the gachas and don't forget about the L$5 Hunt!

Case in point is this EXCLUSIVE Gothic Lace outfit from [QE] Designs. The style is attractive, the texturing is wonderful and it was specially made just for this event.  

The Top and Skirt are sold in a fat pack with 10 colors trimmed in black with studs and a black lace underskirt. The coordinated Boots also come in 10 colors trimmed with metal studs and lace.

I paired the outfit with jewelry from SynCo and Squishy Fluff and nails from DP Koffin Nails you'll also find at Mystical Market.

Fire & Ice

A major issue for the demons among us has been finding claws to use with bento bodies.

After going to mesh, I had to settle for stiletto fingernails and no claws on my feet. It was frustrating! (I know it's a minor thing in the grander scheme of things, but we all have our little eccentricities...!)

For the new year Aii has made it easy to have demonic hands and feet with the Dark Touch Hand and Feet Claws. The dark tats included with the set integrate the claws into your skin beautifully. Optional particles add to the magic. Available in Gold, Silver and Vision (shown)  
I'm wearing the Daemonium Tail* and I'm juggling the Duel Magical Orbs* , which are the other newest items @ EgosumAii*. You will definitely want to add these to your collection. 

You'll find demos and the LMs as you enter the Main Store.

I'm showing unedited pictures 
WITH (left) and WITHOUT (below) Advanced Lighting. 
It's hard to see the difference this time. 
You'll notice a little more definition in the shadows around my face and on the icy parts of my skin, The orbs reflect the light differently with Advanced.
It's always interesting to see what a difference the lighting makes.
