    The Vault – Having a Pearla

    The Vault - Having a Pearla

    Trust me the title is a good thing in Australia. It just means having a good time, but in this case, it also means I am adorned with jewels of the sea. I lucked out with Sparkle Skye releasing her Emily headband this just gone weekend, the full version comes with the double, the single and bows on the sides versions in both single and double, with texture change pearls and bows options, depending on what packs you buy. Against this silvery grey hair by Lamb it was just perfect, and I love the witchy style, with its shorter than usual bangs, that just make it pop. Then Yummy released a bumper set of incredible beachy themed boho earrings, which as a Pisces I had to log in just to get them. I am wearing the Bubbles version, so they are just cascading pearls, and they are lovely, so are all the others in the set, you need these for Summer and all the other fishy seasons.

    Bliensen + Maitai created this necklace called Milkyway for The Vault and with a bit of editing, I was able to get all the pearls very close in colours. The Sparkle and Yummy versions had huds, and were all mod, actually all three items are mod, so I was able to tweak everything as needed, isn’t that just the best news.

    The Umbrella and Horns are also The Vault items, and I really liked the idea of a darker look with these very girly items. The umbrella is very cool and has different settings of holds, so that it can be more covering or tilted back enough to still see how fabulous you look. It has a colourful animated gem at the bottom of the handle, but I tinted that black, modify permissions are AWESOME! The horns are also amazing, and they have a real bone feel to them visually…again I know what that means in my head, you will just have to take my word for it until you get yours.

    Hair Fair 2024 – Mina Hair Unleash

    Hair Fair 2024 - Mina Hair Unleash

    Another 40ish hours left of Hair Fair 2024, I hope everyone has had a chance to visit and if not, you still have time. Every item donates, and this year not only are there exclusive items on show, but some stores have chosen past releases to also donate, giving you a lot of options to help Wigs for Kids.

    I am mixing styles again today. The Bonnie hair by Mina Hair is a whole selection of parts, a fantastic ponytail which I am wearing, which has a style hud for centre, left and right options. There is also a skull cap style add on for the hairbase that is made to fit various head types, my head type is not included, but if using the cowboy hat option it would have been perfect. I was not in a cowgirl mood, so I went with a BOM hairbase by Unleash also at Hair Fair and it being styled right for the tail position it was a great mix. Then added a gift headband and I am feeling very sleek and stylish. The Bonnie style is definitely a must have for those quickly throw your hair back into a stylised tail, and with it already being a hat style, that means you can use it with many other hats.

    You have a few days left of Hair Fair 2024, so remember every item sold at the event donates a percentage to Wigs for Kids.

    Hair Fair 2024 – Wasabi Flair

    Hair Fair 2024 - Wasabi Flair

    Mixing things up, wearing things in different ways, it is what makes Second Life the most fun…and Hair Fair 2024 – CLOSES 16th June at Midnight, so you have all weekend to shop – brings that out in me the most. I also had a little Hare jealousy going on from the other days piglet photobombing, so I just had to do a pic with one of this years Hair Fair Hares (Hearts & Crafts) isn’t he adorable, thank you again to Anya Ohmai for donating the Hares to the event for use each year to raise funds for Wigs for Kids.
    Wasabi, has always made sure to make their items in ways that people may choose to use them differently when possible, and the Sun hair is no exception, it comes with an adorable tied bandana/scarf look around the top, and is just delightful for Summer. Wasabi did give the option to turn that off though, which means that you can wear other Hair Accessories with it, or go completely without, you do you.

    I did me! This is the first year that Flair – the brand I co-create for with my incredible partner Mel Vanbeeck – are actually not only overseers of the event itself, but are participating. We made two exclusives and this is one of them, the Lilyfield Ruffle headband. When you spend as much time in conversation as I do with Gogo and Sparkle, you end up with a lot of ruffles and a lot of pink in your minds eye. So this headband was born, and I just love to add things to hair as you know, so the mixing of the two things, the fun Summery look by Wasabi and the headband just worked so well for me. I hope you like them both very much too.

    Hair Fair 2024 – Beusy Chou

    Hair Fair 2024 - Beusy

    I do love me some nautical looks, and the plushie heart hairclips by Chou has a galaxy theme print on one of them, and that just made me think of being out in the sea and the top was just perfect, with this adorable style by Beusy for the hair. The Peridot style is so many things, it comes across very girly, carefree daytime fun. Then it lends itself to a more mature look from a past era, think housework by 11am and then martinis for lunch. I do live a lot inside my head. There is a style HUD for the bangs, letting you turn them off completely and giving you that ability to wear others, or use have these long lovely side ones. I really want to see how cool this style looks with a visor hat now too, anyone for tennis?

    Hair Fair 2024 – Exile She Said Destroy

    Hair Fair 2024 - Exile She Said Destroy HYBRID

    I am certainly living my best Hybrid Hair SLife this year with Hair Fair styles. I took this fabulous exclusive style by Exile called Kory, and added the Bettie bangs and strands from She Said Destroy, also available at Hair Fair 2024. I love all these bits and pieces that you can turn into completely different looks, it gives you that edge – much like BOM – to your wardrobe. If you can add a little something that makes you stand out from the crowd, then go for it.

    I also love the behind shoulders option in the styling HUD that Exile gives for this style, you get the forward left or right, but also behind shoulders, which makes it much easier to get dressed.

    Hair Fair 2024 – Sintiklia #187#

    Hair Fair 2024 - Sintiklia #187

    I am feeling mighty again, this time though, with that kind of classic movies twist, where I host a fancy club/restaurant by day and then am ready to stab someone with my hair-stick, or drop some poison from the lotus into someone’s cocktail – I have a very good imagination when it comes to my Hair Fair combinations it seems.

    Sintiklia made this braided bun/updo style, and it is giving all the looks, with the 5 options of wear with the HUD. Also a nifty materials selection as well. I like that it can be tailored to your vibe of that day, because updo’s especially are a real thinker, you either need them in the moment – which is why it was very normal to see girls in ballgowns shopping in hair stores in the older days – or you fall in love with them and then have to work them into your wardrobe, this one is an easy fit, because it has that very grand elegance to it, but can definitely go casual.

    I had no particular hair in mind though when I bought this divine hairstick from #187# though, the fact that they came together so well is just…Bloggers Fate :P. But aside from my silly, it is just glorious, and so many options in the HUD for colour combinations. It feels otherworldly and just something one has to have, to round out their inventory.

    Hair Fair 2024 – PADO Tardfish

    Hair Fair 2024 - Pado Tardfish

    A few styles have made me feel all mighty this year, and this PADO style with the addition of the adorable Birdy Tug Hair accessories by Tardfish is doing that again. I feel like I am a character in one of those ‘Kids of Superheroes/Mythology Gods Movies’ I of course am too old now to be the kid, but I am definitely one of the teachers or counselors that make appearances every 48 minutes. This hairstyle is lovely and sleek sided, but with the addition of these cute wing pins, I am Super Duper. The pins are separate and not rigged, so you can put them anywhere really, which is very cool.

    The Tardfish accessories are very cute, the tendrils just fit against any hair you have, and the little birdies just flitter/animate about doing their thing. Because it can go with any style of hair, that is why you can feel Super Duper, or like a Disney Princess, your choice.

    This look also gave me the chance to wear this outfit from Fashionably Dead, because it too made me feel Super :D.

    Hair Fair 2024 – Truth Sparkle Skye

    Hair Fair 2024 - Truth Sparkle Skye

    I knew as soon as I saw this adorable fascinator hat by Sparkle Skye, what I was going to wear it with. Then the whole look came together, and when you have an inventory like mine, it is no wonder you have street lights just laying around for prop use – mind you they are also the same street lights I used at Hair Fair, so that tracks. I loved the idea of a dapper look, with the fascinator being so girly and feminine, I wanted to even out the scales there and add a bit of masculine to the look. Then it turned into a whole singing in the rain kind of vibe, and what better hair to pull that off with than the Breeze style by Truth.

    What I like most about this hair, is that with the settings options for style, you can tame it down or really lean into the wind. Lucky my Kaori Mini Hat is well pinned on. Again I am playing around with the lovely colour options of this style, actually adding the streaks option for the soft greyish pink to the more grey overall colour, it really came out lovely just a subtle add to give more realism.

    I have mentioned my underwear a few times this week, so wanted to point out that the bustier portion of the suit, is sheer, but can also be turned off…now we know I do not do sheer with nothing under, so I grabbed one of the newer underwear sets by Nuve the cherry set, and tinted the white lace away, and it was the perfect fit – I love me some mod! The hat is also mod, and I am going to be making it different sizes in future for different looks for sure. It also comes with net or silk fabric options, as well as feature options of colours depending on what packs you purchase.
