Art & Fashion at Avalon

ART & FASHION - an unbeatable connection

Avalon Town Estate is a vibrant Second Life community that was conceived late in 2006 and is renowned for art exhibitions, music performances, shopping and equestrian events.
I will be showcasing a few of these treasures starting with this fun installation at the Avalon Estates Welcome Hall.
I'm wearing the latest release from the MEILING Couture Collection along with one of my all time favourite hats, the CC LaFitte Chapeau from the Champagne Collection.

Haunted Couture at its very best

Don't be caught dead NOT wearing couture when you visit the Pravda Dark Couture Sim with it's incredible Gothic theme.

The build on this sim is on a whole other level of eery ambiance rarely found in SL. It is well worth spending the time walking through and below the cemetery and definitely keep your eyes open for the signs to a totally unexpected surprise.

And while you are there, channel your inner glam witch with the MAH Cocktail Witch Hat combined with the MEILING Couture Midnight Express Ensemble  to be part of the magic.
