She’s having my baby
It is getting so close to countdown for the end of Hair Fair, so hard to imagine how fast the event actually goes by, when you consider how long these can take to get up and running. I am seriously running out of time to post even a fraction of all the incredible styles that are available there, so I think you just need to go buy it all :P.
First pic today features Xplosion, we have all been fans of the work of Xplosion in our group, and especially what she can do with hair. These styles are fab, and I especially love the beadwork draped over in a bindi style finish, very stylish detailing. The store does a lot of banded or cap finished hair, and I am a huge fan of both. Further down you will see my shoes, these shoes are the strangest flats you will ever fall in love with. I would find myself admiring them and not ‘getting them’ so many times and then once on it was love. Newdoll wears hers all the time, and I really need to wear mine more often, the colours available by menu are great, especially the snot green. I have worked out the creator really loves pink and green because there are so many options of both.
Next pic are some very dramatic styles, one from JE republic that is just a charming way of linking hair together, and then MiaMai with the incredible hair and headpiece creation, to be worn with hair base skins or tattoos. The gem work in this and the others featured in their booth are just mesmorising. I am wearing both styles with some more L’Abel clothing by Ivalde, two stunning gowns, one of which is at Modaiva fashion week this week.
Finishing off with some more avant garde hair from L + N Signature, the hair in this store is a must see, if you haven’t been to their main it is very entertaining, Whimsy and SarahtheRed and I once spent ages there admiring the wigs. The hair fair styles are just as fun, and can work casual or dressy, as you can see with my newer Royal Blue goodies and older LeLutka, still so in love with those jeans…and now that Kianna has a prim baby to feed – dodges the smack that is going to cause.

Same tent
Ok today I used my smarts, this post is all under the one tent lol. Which should make it easier to grab everything you can.
Ok firstly we have Jester J’s you will have seen his crazyness if you are in What’s New SL or come to The Deck already. He is the clown with the most annoying laugh EVER…but we love him deeply. He actually made the balloons that are part of the donation kiosks at this years Hair Fair, and those balloons are so amazing in their usual form.
Lets get back to hair though, the first style was made a while ago, in preparation for Hair Fair, and actually before the hair base tattoos craze hit, so I am so chuffed he waited until now to release, because they are the most funna little twist curls, and with the Boon shaved Vine hair tattoo as an under base for those fearful of full bald, its a match made in crazy town. The hair is texture change, and so are the ribbons, incredible prim work on all of these. Then you have the ability on top of that to tint to your own crazy colours. So runway Chic, especially in this insane coat from Modern Gypsy that is a Designers United 4 item, I am so ready for a 1980’s filmclip right now.
The next style is so ‘hair inspired by other things’ looking, to me this style whether intended to or not, looks to me like a trojan helmet, and that is so cool. Again texture change, and me combining the fierce hair with the incredible DU4 items from Royal Blue. Marni has been busting out new releases lately and they are all amazing, this corset has a spine that is just amazing work. You will have to make a copy and edit it a bit, but once its fitted it’s great.
In both pictures I am wearing the new shoes Milano by Adam n Eve, these are their first foray into toe/feet shoes, and they have done a marvelous job. Now if only I can get Damen to add a real pink to the colours I will be happy :P. Easy to use HUD and v2.0 and regular options which is great for all those still not using v2 options.
Next we move to Scribble. Radio worked so hard on creating her styles for Hair Fair, as it has been an age between hair releases for her, and with the releases she did, I cannot wait to see even more in the future. My absolute favourite of the styles featured at Hair Fair was going to be the Cleaning day style, the tied kerchief is so pretty and when the kerchiefs came back into fashion a few years back I for one was a big fan. But looking at all the styles and wearing them with different looks, from cleaning and bumming around the house – omg sock puppet socks – to daytime strolling with friends looks, then onto a night out on the town, the styles that Scribble produced work so well.
Another store to floor me was Calico Ingmann Creations. From way back one of my favourite updo’s was from her store, and I used to love her reds, then Fiachra was a big fan of her facial hair and wore that for an age. Over the years I pop in from time to time, but BAM the hair she has produced for Hair fair is incredible. Not only are the styles amazing but the textures are so pretty, I fell in love with the blonde in the vintage style, but the fire texture in the updo is amazing.
One pic up I went with a bit of a green throughout theme, and the me in the middle has on a beautiful tunique top by SySy’s it was her birthday last week – as well as nearly everyone of her friends, how bizarre they were all born around the same time – waves and blows kisses…the style of this is very folksie which I adore, but the fabric is just beautiful and shimmery also, which is great for casual or dressy.
You may have noticed that lately I am having a big love affair with skirts , system ones are not a new love, but the more calf length flowy style, and these two are OMG awesome, if I could have them in every colour imaginable I would.
In the post I am also wearing a recent skin release from LAQ, the Isabel skin is so petite, the nose on this skin is adorable, and the make ups are fun and playful with a range of natural to out there, I love the eyeshadow options in this skin, so pretty and colourful. As usual DEMO DEMO DEMO you won’t want to miss out on trying this one, she is lovely.

Inner Rocker
Ok first off I want to say sorry Sachi for calling your skin Brooke, not Bianca, even though she didn’t even correct me, I realised today and went ARGH bad Sasy. I don’t know why I even got Brooke stuck in my head. So anyway I am wearing it again just to make up for it, and also because it is so pretty. Now for more Hair Fair 2010 Hair Styles.
These are all from Rock Candy, a new to me store, but woah some hotness abounds in there. Not only is it a great store for guys hair, but the girls hair has some seious edge.The one on the far right is hands down my fav, I feel like i could front a rockband in this for sure, even though I am dressed all girly girl, my leather catsuit is only an arms reach away.
It is rare for me to shoot 50L friday items on the day, but these are just so fabulous, I thought they were perfect for the post and wanted to show how amazing the new Saville Row items are from 5th & Oxford and how menswear can also look so cute on women…that brown coat and pants would be awesome for an equestrian post or whatever. The cream items are from Kyoot and what is not to love with that neckwarmer and hightop hotpants. I am wearing them with a tank from OhMai and word on the street is that Anya is about to delete all her old items ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. She will be reopening her store with all new ones WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
So make sure you grab as many of everything as you can, as all is reduced and her prices are insane to begin with. The outfit on the right is also by Anya Ohmai, but is at the Designers United 4 Narcissus event, and so cute.
Off you go to Rock Candy …………………….

You have the right to remain silent
I seriously woke up today and went ‘Mugshots” I had found my Hair Fair 2010 Groove lol. Not only were they fun to do, but I was cracking myself up everytime I added a new one to the group. I am even being tricky and according to some numerology site I found, I have swapped the letters of the store for their numbers, so it has that touch more authenticity to it.
First hair is Aoharu, they have actually added another style to their booth, so if you have already been you need to go back again. Machange had been away for some time, so her being able to participate was awesome. Both styles are very different from previous Aoharu type hair, and the ribbons all come with beautiful textures in a drop down menu.
Both outfits, or partial outfits are from PIG, we love that store, such beautiful texture work, and all just so worn in already, that it makes it an old favourite right from the start. The shoes are the latest from Royal Blue, the name is a LIE , lol because if I was a secretary my dream would not be those shoes, but a working photocopier. But the shoes more than make up for it by being stunners.
Another one that almost didn’t make it to the fair, was Gwendolyn Cassini, so busy RL and scripting lately that Hair Fair was last minute, but she made it in the nick of time. The first style I am wearing is unisex and I have it on with a tattoo base from Amacci, i did also tint it slightly because the two whites differed.
The GORGEOUS skirts are from Beetlebones who actually has hair at hair fair 2010 also, these skirts are to die for MUST HAVES, seriously I would wear these all the time, the texture is perfect and the length and flex is just right, they are the baby bear porridge of skirts.
Other Must Haves are the Dandy boots from Miel, these western style boots are all win, not only from the shape and style of them, so yum, but also the texture options, you can change the leather main from the trim and soles. So many options and they also have that worn in look…but the winning factor is that they were also made as bottoms only so that you CAN wear them with pants with cuffs and get that boot look that is so sexy, as seen on the bottom pic on the right, with the Dandy clothing pieces.
One of the standout styles for this years hair fair has been the eating strand styles from Magika, everyone has gone nuts for these do’s and rightly so, because I cannot think of a single girl I know that at one time or another hasn’t done that, some girls even have it as a bad habit, ending up with hard strands of hair lol. The ribbon tied updo is also so pretty, from daytime casual to dressy uppy this would work a treat.
The clothing is all Nyte n Day goodness, with the shoes from Biastice recently released and also so adorable, I have a tank top RL with the same button detailing that was so huge at markets in the mid to late 90’s.
All of the skins I am wearing are from YS & YS and the messed up make up one is from The Dressing Room at a drastic reduction in price, so do not miss out on that. The mascara running tat though I made the other day for something else, so if you want one IM me.

War War is Stupid
Last night the girls – Ashia, Justice, Newdoll and I went by Designers United 4, the theme this time around is Narcissus. As Jussy said it is a perfect theme for a fashion event, and like all Designers United collaberations this is definitely an event.
Some House of Munster hair from Hair Fair 2010 made it a perfect oppurtunity to wear the Military coat I picked up at MR, and even though the sculpties etc are oversized for males it was easy to edit and a really great looking coat, I had been wearing the red one primless for over a week, setting up Hair Fair – every time I logged back into V2 I was in it at least.
The faux hawke style for those that don’t do shaved is fun and exciting. It also works so well Unisexy, so you can be a perfect pair if you drag your partner over too. I am also wearing some recently released shoes from SLink , these are so neato, a different take on the maryjane in that they have two straps of wickedness. All the built in additions that come with your SLinks as they are foot in shoe, tone options etc all in the handy hud.
The Gown I am wearing is from Orta, this is one of the items from Designers United, and one of my all time favourite things is open fronted ball gowns. The ability to show off your shoes, or in this case killer riding boots is just awesome, and this gown makes that so easy to do. I am wearing another style from House of Munster this is Lola 2, the largeness of it is fabulous, and I not only like this version but the one has victory curls. I am so glad House of Munster made it back to SL especially that she was able to join us at Hair Fair again this year.
I am wearing Dafne a skin that is new by PXL, the skin is a little different than previous skin releases, and the bow shaped mouth is a definite stand out for those that know their brands. Catering this time to a different market the new face will allow for more choice when chosing the one that is right for you. As usual so many options with your skins, make sure you try on the DEMOS.

While I write this Marni Grut is getting ready for her opening of Royal Blue, a reopening actually, as she has been spending time upping her craft to make a bigger and better brand. Marni just loves it when I get in her IM, it always means extra work lol. Today was no exception but well worth it for all, as the new coats she is releasing now have a with spikes and shoulderpads option, and a without, meaning when you aren’t so GaGa you can do your own thing.
She is doing a blend of both out there and for all occassions wear, which is perfect for those customers who are loyal to a brand/designer. The zipper tank was a pleasant surprise, not only featuring a zipper front, but the low back with zipper is a great look, and very frisky. Marni has also made some wonderful Jeans, that come in great denim colours and have a lovely worn in already look about them, without being too rough around the edges.
I am wearing the film crew tshirts from Fri.day with the jeans on the bottom, these tshirts with their old movies theme are so cute. I especially like the rolled sleeves look at the shoulders, a bit more fun than your regular tshirt, and they also look well worn in. The hair I am wearing is new from Exile in the two two pics, the first being a glorious backcombed side pony, the backcombing giving a stunning beehive look at the crown…very hot for this season. The second a shaggy mane of layers, totally loviong the softness of this hair, its wild and yet not overly so.
The fri.day styles are pretty and as always both elegant and wearable, Raina would make the perfect updo for a formal affair, but can be worn as simple and casual as with todays look. More shoes from the fair, the real toe wrap sandals from J’s are a great wedge style, with built in toes and an easy to use colour system. The regular pallet that J’s uses for his leather has been used again for these, and I personally love the colours that he uses, they seem to fit just about everything.
Another pair from the fair, this time from NCore, are the Seduction shoes, these shoes have so many options that buying a safe base colour still gives you tonnes of possibilities. The laces, and heels have different colour options, so do the soles the inners and the heel tips and rings. With fun prints for the nails and options for gloss or not, which is the equivelant of shiny. they are sexy and definitely well named.

Got nothing on us
I went to a party to wrap up the Summer Festival at Tableau with Whimsy tonight. The whole Tableau team were there, giggling up a storm on voice. The winner of their store for 30days contest was Radio Signals who is an incredible content creator as well as RL artist. So I am so glad she won. I recently bought some of her art work to hang at home, and it looks fab. If you haven’t been by her gallery next door to Scribble, you should definitely check it out.
I was feeling so festive after the do, that I just felt all bubbly and coloured hair worthy. It is funny how for granted we take the coloured hair packs being available in some stores, what if one day they weren’t there? I know that tips come and go, but sometimes and more often than would be considered normal, you just need coloured hair. Exile has such lovely candy floss like colours, that I decided to go with both in the Candace style. Also to add a bit of flavor to the Jeans and tank from Indyra Originals. These jeans are standout fab with the detailing on the waistband.
The next two pics feature dresses by Vesna, the first one has that large scoop and as soon as I put it on I wanted to fill it, and knew exactly how. Thanks to incredible options, and both items having all layers available, I was able to wear the shirt and tie only from a dress from Fri.day, and create a new look. A mini mobstress look, what with the Fedora hat/hair also from Fri.day. The burnt orange just got some killer bling from Royal Blue and I am ready for a night of dancing. But as I already did that tonight, on with the next one lol.
The new hairstyles from Amacci are incredibly soft and fluttery, framing the face beautifully. How Carina made these styles is just incredible, as most of the hair is a small group of strands all placed strategically to form a style. Lots of prim work in these styles so don’t be wearing them to any high lag events, but don’t hesitate in buying them all because they are just gorgeous. The last two looks had me a bit rock and roll tonight, which is a total contrast to earlier this evening when I was all frocked up.
The skin I am wearing is another New skin from YS & YS and will be released at Fashion Fest. Marilu comes in a neutral tone like the one I am wearing in these pics, as well as a pale I will show at a later date. There are a lovely range of make ups, as well as numerous options. Two hair bases, and cleavage options as well. So each one has 8 options as well as a bun hair attachment if you want to go with the hair base extra tight look, and it is so much fun to cruise around that way sometimes.

blog – Ta Daaaaaa
Vaudeville, from 1880 until the 1930’s was north americas top form of entertainment. Now it’s reality TV, and even virtual worlds – no real statistics were used in the making of this post – which kind of makes sense really. Live entertainment is hard to edit, which allows for a higher level of shock value, the pie in the face probably being the most famous vaudeville slapstick carry on.
Designers United III is a themed event that happens every few months, where a team of designers get together under one banner, and one idea and expand upon it… I find this concept fascinating to watch, and my only displeasure is that they don’t spread it out a bit further than one location. Even going so far as to maybe even showcase an item or two of another designers in their own store. Kind of a relay of sorts, if you went to one designer participants store you would find items from the event of a different designer. So for those wanting only one designers items would actually have to go to a completely different store, which could make them a new fan…now that to me would be a way to unite.
Ok rambling aside, and totally they are doing an incredible job, the last two events were superb and this one is shaping up to be incredible. What a theme for this time of year, it really is a time to get out of your comfort zone and party on. Showing some items from Royal Blue creator Marni Grut, who has been invited to participate this time around.
The first combo is so adorable and cutesy. I mean if you are going to put that much tulle under a skirt why not flip it up and show it off lol. I love this idea, it is so fab and allows you to show off your knickers. It is totally a Kewpie doll effect, I could be perched on the top of a cane at the Royal Easter Show for sure – yes our versions wore cute little flip dresses.
Marni has created a slew of hats and headbands for this event also, the overall favourite for me, and OMG we got Whimsy in a Hat, is The Narator. This hat is a MUST HAVE , it’s design is just fantastically inspired, and for those that love the written word, and stories of old, well it just makes sense you would love this too.
Seeing as Vaudeville was a total merging of all the different types of entertainment of the time, from theater to freak shows, The Illusionist mask kind of represents that ideal perfectly, also the other pieces together gave me the idea of a magicians assistant, with a more modern take. I have to admit I kind of feel like a bit of a superhero in this get up too, or at least I could ride a mean trapeze – as long as it had good poseballs of course.
Last week Rosemary Galbraith of Cupcakes IMd me for a chat about her upcoming skin range, by the time we were finished brainstorming, it had pretty much been completely reworked, and some new ideas for the finished product emerged. I was glad to see this week that all that work came through with a beautiful product.
The Darling Collection has two different noses, for those that want a bit of ethnicity in their skin range, as well as a more Caucasian look. The brows are tintable with different colours provided, and now with shaved as well as a definite lingerie friendly down there, seeing as the store does do their own range of swimwear and lingerie that was something that we discussed.
So many tones to choose from, as well as really lovely make ups, this is a definite step forward for the Cupcakes range, and if you have not tried their skins in the past, I recommend doing so now. Also while you are there make sure and check out the clothes, they are so pretty.

blog – dance I said
An interesting thought reared it’s head earlier today. The idea of culling your inventory just to make it less of a burden on the asset servers. Now Mel and I discuss this every other day, believe me that is truly how often he picks on me about mine.
Actually that’s not even accurate, it would be every day. Even Whimsy cops it from him, and hers and mine are almost the same in size. Whimsy scared the hell out of me last week, declaring that if it was causing a strain – Mel says that when I log back in after a crash the sim stalls – then eventually her and I wont be able to be on the same sim; at the same time.
Ashia is more brutal with hers, she gets all powered up and starts deleting things left, right and centre, mind you though she freaks me out by not even looking at what she is deleting. Which recently meant she had to buy something she had previously owned.
Luna mentioned in a plurk that came up about it, that she culls hers to less than 30 (I think it was) and that if she doesn’t use it in 6 months it is gone.
I am sorry but NO WAY JOSE! I cannot go that low, never ever ever. Lately I have been going back and forth in my inventory to show older and new items together… as I always say ‘Everything Old is New to Someone”. I have gotten rid of items that are of no use to me at all, I know I have to completely strip down my furniture folder and what not…I did also get rid of over 3000 wigs recently from one designer, just because of all the colour options I wouldn’t wear…but I do have them backed up in boxes ‘just in case’.
I know it is out of hand, and I know I am a horder lol. But my inventory is my timeline here just as much as my blogs are. I have items from every store I have managed – most of those are boxed unless needed – I cannot imagine not being able to reach into it and pull out an item I know would be perfect for a pic, or blog post regardless of its age.
The absolute beauty of NO TRANSFER items is the ability to unpack, wear, and delete…just make very sure you kept the box. No Transfer means COPY, which means UNLIMITED amounts of said item. Example is the gown I unpacked again today to wear, the deep red one, that I modified so you could see my shoes. I have had that archived in the red for probably a year, the black is left out. Now I will delete the folder, because I know I have it safely boxed.
There is so much of that that you can do as a consumer, and so much that can be done to ensure that is easier as a creator. You see many are against boxed items, usually because they want to see what they are getting with an item, and that is fair enough.
But things such as fat packs etc, are better off as seperate boxes, yes you can right click take copy your single vendors and pop them into your fat pack vendor DONE, it is as simple as that. Creators please don’t make your boxes no copy though, when the items inside of it are no transfer, it is a bit dangerous to make the box they travel in different perms.
Anywho, once you unpack and wear, you can delete, just again be sure you have a back up box that actually does contain the items ready for next time. This also applies for high price items, UNLIMITED UNPACKS, if you mod it and mess it up, unpack another one, if you cannot find all the pieces, unpack another one.
If you spend a bit more than you are used to, and you feel that that item is something you would hate to lose, if it didn’t come in a box, then before you do anything else, make a box and drag copies of the items into it, name it exactly as it is on the item folder and save it to a different folder. I know of some people that sink valuables under the house lol.
Anyway enough of all that.
The shoes I have on were created just after the opening of the Footwear Expo, so they are available at the store and the fair, in different colour sets. This set is of course the darker tones that I asked Siddean to release, for those of us who love our ballet shoes with an edgier colour base.
I was also lucky enough to choose the name of them, seeing as Ashia and I are both lovers of our ballet stuffs, I wanted them to be named after her, if Siddean liked the idea… she did, so once they were remade in the darker colours, and ready for release I bought a gift pack for Ashia, and lol she didn’t believe they were named that, she thought it was just so she could find them in her inventory that Siddean had edited the folder, and that is why she deserved them.
My first look was inspired by the movies, you know when you see a dancing movie, there is always that teacher/instructor that was a ballerina when she was younger yadda yadda , and she just has such a lovely graceful style about her, well that’s what I was going for with this look.
Modified the skirt on the second, so that you could see the gorgeous blood red slippers. The gown is beautiful full length, but something like this under is a perfect shoe to dance the night away. The third look could be ‘ More strippers are classically trained than you think ” look, lol but it was just something fabulous fun and silver to wear with the shoes..but if you want to call it that look go right ahead.
The skin is NEW and beautiful, I am not only loving the usual features of Laq skins, but the make ups on the Ania are just a bit different than the usual I believe. Mallory has added an incredible gloss effect to the lips, and the colour combination’s are just perfect. I did notice more colour this time around in the eyes especially, glad to see a beautiful green shadow amongst the pack.
Incredibly lined lids, and a really perfect under brow highlighted shadow look , that is not easy to do with the template the way it is. Mallory does her make up like someone who knows and spends time doing their own. There are such little hints at colour and shading, that can really make your eyes stand out, and it takes skill to do that.
Ania is again a more mature version of the Glow skins, sometimes depending on shape others in the range tend to side with a more youthful exuberance, so if that has been a concern to you in the past, then you should check out Ania for sure.
All the hair in the post, old and new is from Exile. All those lovely curls framing the face are such fun, and I really like that tousled lived in look for hair, cannot be too perfect all the time, can we.

Nauti
Being surrounded by water full time at The Deck, I find that my love of the nautical look rears up every so often. So even though it is nighttime here and very cold, this look covers that for me, with the added bonus of being a little bit snuggly. Not only do these lovely tanks come with the thick knitted woolen scarves but also with an alternative trim, so whether in the mood for a white edging to your neckline and sleeves, or wanting to stick with the colour inbedded in the tank, it all works.Mixing these designers up was cake, seeing as all three of them go for the all layers options, which makes dressing oh so much easier. Plus I can pretend I actually have three layers of this tank on and feel even snugglier. The thick denim of the skirt really gives it a tight stretch look, and YUM on these legging socky thingys. No seriously I wish I was showing them properly, you see not only are they garter packes, but they are also toeless, so they are the PERFECT dancer legging socky things.
But again it is cold, so I am in the stomping clomping mood today so far, and with these MENS industrial boots I am fully sorted, yes, they are mens, and as far as I know they don’t actually come in womens versions, but who would want womens industrial boots, it is so much more funna wearing mens, and definitely gives the whole look that saturday morning markets day, op shoppy moment.
With a cool wind blowing this hair is a bonus, and again it was actually a male style at Hair Fair, which ends today so don’t delay. I have to point out that as much as I really adore the style of bag I am carrying, and its overall design, the bag doesn’t come with an animation built in, and as it is no mod one can’t be added, but for taking pictures it is fun and worked with the theme.
This time I went with animations from Red Queens Anime AO , maybe I was feeling all sailor moony in my stripes, and yes I am aware there is more to anime than Sailor Moon 😛 but still the close to chest tucked in kind of feel worked with how I am feeling in the chilly air, or sea breeze ;).
