Death Becomes Her {Elder Goth Style}

Well hello!
It hasn't been that long has it? Don't worry, I Have lots of stuff to show. I've been having quite a bit of fun with my SL, the styles...finding all the things I love!
Goth fashion is not new to Gia's World at all. In fact, it is worn often and happily! Those of you that have been residents of Gia's World for quite some time now, don't need to be told that either.
I almost see it like a challenge. With so many events always popping up around SL, there's only but a few that are darker themed ones. Suicide Dollz, Woeful Wednesdays, The Witching Hour. Then of course around Halloween, several pop up so that is usually when all the goths creep out of the coffins and come out to play! Fun times! But back to what I was saying, I almost find it to be a challenge that when I go to these events, the popular ones...Collabor88, Fameshed...Etc, for example, I pic out what things I can use to pair up with my gothy outfits. Sometimes I can luck out and find a few things both most times, I end up gathering stuff for my eclectic taste.
Needless to say, when I see darker stuff pop up randomly, I cheesy grin like a kid in a candy store!
Death Row Designs made this ahhhhh-mazing 15 LI carriage hearse and I... *sigh* fell in love with it! It has a HUD to change the color of the seats and curtains in the hearse and over a 100 poses, single, couple, clean and adult versions...for those girls that get...you know.
It just so happened that my beloved DRBC released this gorgeous gown for Suicide Dollz!
I had no other thought in mind but to pair the two together for a fabulously dark Elder Goth look and I just adore it! DRBC has also released some super cute jackets at Suicide Dollz, you won't want to miss ANY of it!

Down On the West Coast... {Skindustrial Bodyworks-SkinFair 2015}

{Taken Here}

Skin Fair this year for me was a challenge...only because last year I had a lot more time to focus on the blog than I do right now. Also because I think I've grown a bit more as a blogger. I realized where my faults were last year but they're all a learning experience. I wanted this one to be more about the skin and less about anything else.

The skin I am in right now well, I am bias. I kind of love love the creator because she is simply an amazing woman and it shows through her work which was exceptional this year! I think one of my favorite things about Skindustrial Bodyworks skins is the highlights. It has a glow on it that just makes it a cake walk when taking pics. No editing needed! I pretty much edited allll around the skin and let the skin do its own job. Also the appliers for loud mouth and Nyam or darn flawless. And yeah, appliers...she makes alll the appliers so that makes Gia a happy girl (even though I know it drives the skin makers nuts! But we love you all long time for it!)

This skin comes in a few different shades which I will show you here in a fancy shmancy flashy thiny (unedited) and gorgeous!

Even though I love my pale skins...I was actually walking around for a good while in the darker tanned tone. They're just so gorgeous! 

Walking around at this beach mind you...which I've been camping out at for a few days because it's still cold where I am so yes, I am California Dreamin'!

If you don't know Skindustrial Bodyworks, this is a great time to head over to the Skin Fair while it's still around (till the 29th!), grab some demos and grab the goodies! Also click the link and show her facebook page some luvin' and keep yourself updated with new releases!

I'm already working on another post! I'll be back soon! Luff yew!

And Death Climbs Up the Steps One by One...

{These Photos taken at Missing Mile}

Oh my loves, my deepest apologies for not being here for you! But if you know me then I am sure you understand why. Halloween is such a busy time for my little family and right after it is Dia de los Muertos which we have celebrated for many many many generations in our family. Far beyond sugar skulls  and face paints, it is something we hold dear and sacred. From the feast to the clothing we chose to wear for three days straight. Music, altars, photographs, homemade candles, homemade sweetbreads and our family favorites. It's something I am hoping to keep going strong so that generations to come will continue the tradition. So you see? I wasn't ignoring a single one of you, that I promise. 

Of course I will come back to you with DRBC breathing some life back into me, so to speak. 

I had a chance to celebrate a lil bit of my Dia de los Muertos with some friends at The Rubb that always throw the best Day of the Dead bash evar! It is a day long event (literally) and attending their events is almost like attending class. You will want to bring a pen and paper and take note because these people know their music like no other. I always come back from their events searching down artists and buying tunes online! This is the outfit I rocked there that day.

I paired up my DRBC with a splash of Eudora, Swallow, Exile and an awesome Baiastice find! Grab em' and snag em' below and I will be back soon with more stuff n thangs <3

I missed your faces so much! *smooooooch*

'Neath the Black the Sky Looks Dead {A6D Special}

 {These photos taken here}

Soooo A6D has started!!! I've been long awaiting this event so I'm going to try and do my best to show you alll the pretties, however, you have about 2 weeks (less, it started the 25th, get to it!) to snag them while they are there. 

"But what is A6D Gia?!" Well...After 6 Days derived from the world's greatest creation - none other than itself. The best creation was completed in Six days. 

There is One exclusive item at the sim and additional discounted item(s) at the participating creators home store. When you purchase an item at the A6D sim, the discount HUD will be included, use it when you head over to their main store to receive your discount on the next item! Not too hard, right?!

"But why so much complications Gia?!" Well, with so many events going on in SL, the main stores are suffering from lack of traffic. So, you can hop over to the A6D sim and then over to the main store, and so...you help solve a lil problem! *pats you on the back*

After the 14 days have passed, the special discounts will expire so don't take too long to snag! 

 Each round has a different theme, the theme for this round is 'Chess'. It's one I love too because of all of the black and white and it seems to be a theme that makes designers really reach into their bowl of creativity and whisk it around a bit. 

So glad Dark Passions had a nail set that so went with the theme. I almost exclusively get my nails did (yes, said it like that on purpose!) by Dark Passions, (in case you haven't noticed) 

I sure hope you all have taken to this lil shop because beyond her extremely detailed and unique themes, this woman spoils, spoils, SPOILS her customers! With the sale going on right now, the design I have on is 5L! Can you believe it?! So make use of that tp I will have linked below and take advantage while she's allowing you to do so, who knows when the spoils might vanish!

Also, N21 has been such an awesome event and I was so proud of Elska for releasing such awesome eyeliner! In my lil .gif below, make note of the nails and eyeliner because I am showing them both off. 

Enuf ramblings from meeee but I will be back soon with more!
