    Fairy Bread Truth Serum

    Sasy Scarborough - Fairy Bread Truth Serum

    So a year ago I heard that it was Truth’s Birthday, and I had this idea that I needed to make myself a prop, and I failed at it, so this year I got another chance to do so, and so with much fenangling, I present the item that all kids in Australia wait patiently for someone to have a birthday so we can get our hands and mouths on it….FAIRY BREAD! – it should be a half triangle cut or quarters, but I stole a full piece before the knives came out shhhh. Seriously, I think I have said this before, the funniest thing once your people start having their own kids, is attending their parties and seeing a fair few adults, trying to sneakily get their share in while no one is looking. What is even funnier is that there is no special lock box at the supermarket for 100’s & 1000’s (Sprinkles some call them) and butter is always available, as well as perfectly yummy white bread, it has to be white bread, and sorry but the fancier breads will not work, they are just not the same, it has to be the Australian version of wonderbread, we can as adults make this stuff whenever we want, even if we don’t have kids, but it is special, it belongs at parties, and it is adored, and other countries do not seem to get it, but it is magic, I think if someone waved it in front of me and asked me secrets I would give in.

    So in honor of the birthday of the talented Truth Hawks I give you Fairy Bread delivered to me personally by a fairy, and my hair colour and outfit choice is also in keeping with the fanciful nature of the post. Some of you may not know that Truth started with clothing before Hair, and that occasionally he busts out in creating some, these pants are such a release, they are so fun, the little skirt pants combination are just fun and flirty, and the colours and this gradient style on the fatpack are just perfection. So thank you Truth for another year of your SLife and thank your family for another year of you. I hope that there is Fairy Bread on every surface of your RL home right now, it is morning still, but I think Fairy Bread for lunch today is a must have.

    Legna Day

    Sasy Scarborough - Legna Day

    I have been having some wonderful customer service experiences lately, as the customer, which always makes me happy. Having done that role for nearly 2 decades in Second Life, it often hits differently, and if it is not a good one, it floors me, because it becomes more about the interaction than anything to do with the product. Honestly, there just isn’t a reason for bad customer service in Second Life, we are a huge world, tens of thousands of people, but we are very much a small-town cottage industry. Every step you take, every move you make, someone is watching, taking note, and letting everyone they know know.

    So this is me, letting you know know. The brand is Legna, and I played their gacha at the current round of The Fifty. I played once, got a great common, played a second time, got the Rare – I have magic Rare powers, trust me – and played one more time, just because I wanted to, and was happy. Unpacked it all, and was trying on the various options, this gacha is incredible, it is a Handbag Gacha, but not only do you get the bag in the colour won, you get the bag with 4 different holds for both left and right, it is wild, all included for one low gacha price…so I was playing around with the poses, deciding that one of them just had to feature in my next post, they are so awesome, as bags, and then realised that old ‘1’ after the name of something, meaning that the same item has been added to the contents when packing it twice. So I looked closer and realised that one of the holds was two lefts, I checked, as I often do to make sure, that it was not just a naming issue, like typing left on the right and it really being a right, but no, it was two of the same, so I contacted the creator and let her know the issue, and she got back to me in a few hours – remember I live in the future, so that is often going to be the case that there is some wait time, that and people have lives outside of Second Life, shocking I know.

    Just to be clear, there is so much in this pack, that one missing hold did not matter at all to me, the reason for the contact is that it is important that we let stores know when something is not as it is meant to be, so that they have the opportunity to fix it, not just for us, but for everyone, and also so that their item is just not wrong going forward forever. So she did, she fixed it, she sent me the parts I was missing, she interacted with kind words and a bit of a share about how important it is to her that her customers are happy…and then logging in today, after I had already shot these pics and so on, she had sent out a redelivery through her vendor system to all customers that purchased the items, so that they had the right items, this is a huge thing especially for Gacha items, to care more about the customer than the fact that technically everyone got everything twice.

    So that and the fact that the other day I was chatting to Mel about ‘Leg Day’ and giggled about that the whole time I was shooting my pics for this post, everything else that came about from that, just made it the perfect title for the post. Legna Day has earned its spot in my calendar. Also aside from all of that, have I mentioned how awesome the bags are, they are so cute and fierce at the same time, love that.

    The white version of the bag lead me to being all white for this look, which is not usually a thing I do, or haven’t done in a fair while. The top is the top of the Peaches set by The Kiwi Co. when I did the shorts from that set, I knew it was going to be a separate look with the top, and this was perfect, that right amount of girly. So then to offset that, I went with some leather pants with inbuilt feet covering by Ison, that are made to fit into shoes made for the feet shape that were an easy match up with the NCore shoes, the strappyness of them a great contrast, which I love, so it is like leather stockings and any shoe you choose to finish the look.

    This cool little choker that was a gift at THE BASH – FLF Birthday Bash, that I just want to keep calling The Bash, as I mentioned in my last post. It is so delicate and has a texture change hud with lots of options, by NaaNaa’s. Also adding this adorable little nose chain of pearls by Swan, I was heavily leaning into all my white options here. That left me with the hair, and this style by Wasabi for TRUTH Collective is an easy choice, the hardest part was deciding what colour, do I go full white, do I go a contrast colour, I could have just gone black, but I wanted a little something, so I went with the Silvery roots look that way I just look like I started Black and gave myself a whitewash. i love the straightness of the style until the perfect swoop at the bottom, it is perfect, and to add to its perfection, the lovely daisy barrette by Sparkle Skye…now I just have to work out where to go looking this fabulous.

    Forget me Knot

    Sasy Scarborough - Forget me Knot

    I enjoy good word play, a great pun is something delightful. Pairing up the Opalite set and all its lovely bows, with the Elena hair and its adorable bow back cap, had me enjoying the girly of it all, while still having that streetwear edge. I had fun with my picture because I felt like with all these bows to remind me of something, apparently I forgot my keys. I had to create this outside doorway scene because of the lovely suncatcher by Sparke Skye that is still available at the FLF Birthday Bash that I mentioned in a previous post. There are four different colour themes and it spins slowly from the virtual breeze and twinkles, it is just a beautiful expression of stained glass design and I know that the creator herself actually has a passion for this craft in RL, so it is always nice to see those things overlap.

    Speaking of overlap, you will not see that with this set, the team at The Kiwi Co. set up their set to include a jeans tucked version of the bodysuit, which makes for a great ability to wear them without concern of clipping. The jeans also have enough give that you will probably get a great result with other bodysuits you may have, which just makes it a must have combination, that and the fact that you can also hide and show the bows, so they have more versatility across looks, always a bonus.

    Again speaking of versatility, the hair by Navy and Copper has so many options in the cap, it has strapped closure, or the bow, so pretty, with piercings at the brim or no piercings at all, metal options and it has leather or suede texture sets, and we all know I love hat/hair so this is a winner for sure.

    Also at the FLF Birthday Bash was this skin by Glam Affair, that I purchased in both packs, because one never knows how one is going to feel season to season, we don’t all tan or pale out the same way all the time. Packs like these heavily discounted and coming in all the tones is a great way to really see what your default you may end up being, or for that matter how many defaults you plan to have. You may really lean into the seasonal changes in skin tone, and this is an awesome way to test that. Sometimes we just choose one tone starting out and never move from it, in fear now more than ever of the cost associated with past purchases, but don’t limit yourself that way, bust out of that, because you may find out you are an Autumn and not a Spring after all – pretends to be one of those people at the makeup counter giving all the advice on highlights and your colour composite.

    Another fun item I picked up at The Bash, I seriously just want to keep calling it that now…is the headphones by FACS, these are such a cute little item, and while they should be on my ears etc, the great part of Second Life is being able to just move things, make them work how you feel they work best for you, and I just liked the idea of pulling them down, wearing them around my neck and maybe the music is still playing and I can hear it that way, or maybe I turned them off to help me understand where on earth did I put my darn keys.

    Oh what a day of delightfulnessssss. First off a New to me store, with a NEW location and so many things that are just incredibly well made…what a delight. They are also having a special reduction on things later today as well as 3 fabulous HUNT items so easy to find – more info as you read.

    Ok so not only did we have the newness, I signed them up for What’s New SL fell in lust and went back again with Whimsy, you can see her post HERE – if it is up yet, she does that time delayed thing. But we also have some awesome new from oldness, hope that they don’t mind being called old.

    Surf Co. has a big release about to drop, you will see it scattered throughout the post. Which was perfect timing what with the gorgeous New Monica skins from GLAM Affair, it has both dark and light brows as default, with hairbase options as well as extras on tattoo layers. The skins make up this time around is a mix of both very subtle and deep night time looks…I am a bit enamoured with the baby blue and baby pink look, remember demo demo demo. Showing off skin tones with a new kini is always fun, and the retro inspired and named bikinis by Surf Co. are just awesome. Because of the style and the fuller effect in the bum, they will suit all shapes and sizes. Even those little cuties running all over SL lately…has anyone else noticed that kids are everywhere these days, so cute. There are lots of colours to choose from, more than even shown, so make sure you show some polka dot loving.

    Now back up top pic, how sophisticated and divine is this combo. I am all up in love and Happy with Happy, yes that is the name of the store, and it had Whimsy and I right click buying everything in the store. The attention to detailing is incredible, so much so as to even make the inside of the sculpted sleeves a darker shade because it would be. The pants were my first love, and I didn’t pay any attention to the name until I unpacked them and WOOHOO they are called Little Miss Sassy pants lol how cool is that, meant to be I reckon. The fabric chosen, the style and cut, all are marvelous, where has this designer been hiding.

    Another item from Happy is the posh wrap top, and it is just so beautiful, the work on it is great, and even though worn casually here with the great new Walkabout denim skirt from Surf Co. it is something that you could wear a long skirt or dressier pants with for a night out, it is just lovely. The shoes I have on are a recent release from Aoharu, and they are funk tastic, the colours complimented everything I am wearing so well, and I just love the shape, colours, textures and ease of tinting the toes to match the skin, I didn’t have to do anything but use one of the presets actually.

    Showing the skirts again in the last pic, you can see that you can actually also wear them as stand alone shorts, which is always handy to have, especially to pull on over your bikini. The tops worn are also new Surf Co, and the ruffle detailing on these is pure Emma fabulousness. To get the full effect you will either need a jacket layer, or shirt and pants layer, so lucky her skirts come on the underpants layers too, so that I was able to wear the Preppy Cardigan from Happy over the tank from Surf Co over the skirt also from Surf Co…….layers make my world go arounddddddddddddd.

    Ok he hasn’t been on all day my time that I have seen, but all during the pic taking for this post I wanted to IM Kavar of Exile and go OMG I LOVE IT. Not only is the hair fantastic, especially the second and third styles, even though I love tempest, it is the styles shown after that worked in such harmony. Exile last week released FOR FREE their whole colour pack of hair base tattoos…so now when fitting your hair, which I don’t need to do much of with Exile if ever, the layers just add a delicious hairline to the mix and with the Sasha OMG so amazing. Sasha is like the Lioness of hair, and yes I am fully aware that Lionesses don’t have manes but if they did THIS WOULD BE IT.

    Finishing all the looks off I am wearing MOOD Jewelry, the work of MOOD has seriously improved since it’s opening, and I love that the pieces are both stylish and fashionable, with that added oomph of a really well put together appeal. Every release lately has been incredibly unique, and that says a lot about a jeweler in SL, because the norm is safe, but stylised pieces really help the customer stand out from a crowd.

    Skin Fair is in full flow at the moment, the amount of people visiting is huge, which is so great for all involved. You still have time to get over there if you haven’t and grab as many if not all the demos you can. I also heard that the Skin Addiction Group in world has a lot of the demos in their archives of notices, so you can also go that route and plan ahead.

    Firstly though some wonderful new boots from J’s are the belted ankle boots. These come with the option of belt on or off and to my surprise the colours of this release are unlike any I have seen before from J’s. I mean get a load of that hot pink, wowza. J’s has made these for both alpha viewers as well as invisi prims options, so yay for wearing with pants with prim cuffs.

    These look so fierce with my mix and match ensemble from Glam Affair, the Nero collection from a while back, pieces that I haven’t shown in the past, but look awesome mixed together. The pantaloon like shorts are so cute too, I really like how versatile they are. I am really glad that one of the sets had the black pasties on tattoo layer as well, so that I could be a bit more conservative under the lace undershirt. This collection is so cool to pull to pieces and make new and fab looks with.

    Of course it all looks wonderful over the Mary Skin also by Glam Affair and at Skin Fair. The make up options are divine and so many options in the skins pack. Blush tattoos, eyebrow colours and hair base options, so much included. There are many gorgeous tones and it really is a beautiful skin, so remember DEMO DEMO DEMO.

    Three new uppy do styles from Exile, a formal do, a looser more casual uppy do, and this incredible bunches of buns look that is so fun. I am showing off the different tones and hair with the lovely Cynful kini’s in other colours not shown before, and I have to show much love for the green.

    Neelika1

    Vilda

    Right now I have one of those toothaches that could cause you to take a hammer and chisel to your mouth. Having a toothache sucks, but having on for Christmas is just not fair at all.
    Way behind in showing off the Nero items from Glam Affair, but with the upcoming release tonight of Elikatira’s NEW footwear, I was way excited. One of the stand out things about the Nero collection, is that it has pieces that you can mix and match, or completely change…just as I did in pic one, taking the sides of pants and making them into spiked wings. A little quirky I know, but it means that even if everyone was wearing Nero at an event, your Nero will look different and funna.

    Downwards to the Secret boots, can I hear a resounding YUM…I think so. These boots are boots that don’t look just like boots, but more of an overboot boot look. The style of these is gorgeous, and the colours available are going to have boot lovers happy as clams. Lots of shades of browns and midtones, and the snow colour is amazing.

    The Mistress dress from Glam Affair, is designed to expose the upper portion of the chest, adding the beautiful calypso bra from Eclectic apparel I soon took care of that, and added some dynamic print while doing so.You can do a lot with this dress, a shrug, a tshirt, whatever rocks your world. The ankle boots from Elikatira are also divine, they are called live and really should be more like shin boots than ankle as they go up just enough to be a tad more creative in style.

    The black ruffled dress is a little bit more sedate, but adding one of the many collars from the Nero collection you have a bit more spice going on, The new Move pumps from Elikatira are going to be a go to shoe for many, the style is simple and can easily work with more conservative looks, but the platform and hell give it that ‘look at me’ factor…there are also some flats being released but right now I want to smash my face into a wall, so that will have to do.

    Not my SL face though, because the new Vilda skin is lovely, comes with both dark and blonde brow options, and enough of a mix of make ups to make all happy, from your classic basics to some fun and frivolous shadows in time for all of the new year fun and festivities.DEMO DEMO DEMO I am wearing nougat tone, but there are as usual many to choose from.

    Recently released skins by Glam Affair, this is Jadis. You saw the paler version last week , well this week we have a medium tan, as well as other tones, but I am showing in that one, the golden body is just lovely. There are 12 make ups for this skin, as well as a base skin, and they are all superb, luscious lips and dramatic eyes, she has such a summery look to her overall.

    The hair I am wearing is a new release from Exile and OMG isn’t it sexy as hell, it has that dried by the sun look I love, and frames the face in a revamped 70’s look. The length is great, it is truly all win. The swimwear I am wearing is from Has Been, if you haven’t been to Has Been then you are missing out on some amazing pieces, especially the latest lingerie release. But the vintage swimwear caught my eye, and I just had to have.

    The background I am using from Second Life Stock Images, is another one of Whimsy WInx’s . She got a group gift the other day and we thought it was so beautiful, that it was perfect for some kind of arty look…and she nailed it with this one, I just couldn’t resist it. The store where the chair is from is What’s Next, and the iceberg she has in her pic, is part of an awesome floating escape from her own store W.Winx.

    Have a great day

    Buck Up for Winmer, or Sumter

    FriWhip

    A quickie, just to get my day started…which is kind of silly as it’s 2am here. I cannot believe it is the 17th, Christmas is only days away, and yet there is nothing really Christmasy feeling about it, unless you consider funny names on plurk and of course the decorating of sims and body, such as I have done today. But are you feeling the nostalgia, the need to find that ultimate gift for loved ones, or looking forward to as many of your family and/or friends getting together on the big day ?

    As I get older, it becomes more about making sure I remember that the stores will be closed, and to be sure to order enough red bull in my next delivery. It is funny too because in the past I have shuffled my Christmas day – a day ahead of most – with being in Second Life to do customer service on Christmas Eve, a hectic last minute explosion where everything hiccups and it is all awesome – I miss customer service lots and lots, may have to do something about that in the new year.

    Maybe I am still not used to being so overexposed to it so early, as soon as the halloween stuff was about to come down the thanksgiving and christmas stuff went up in Second Life, and for us down here, your thanksgiving meal is more like our Christmas, so somehow I feel like I have already had my turkey and all the fixins.

    Lucky for me and other Aussies, there are designers like Dakota Buck taking care of our warmer weather needs. This weeks fifty L Friday items from Whippet & Buck are these adorable tiered skirts. The two colours that you will get are divine, and so easy to mix and match. I went with black for the pink skirt, but could have easily gone with chocolate, creams or even blues.

    Moving down the legs, past The Strand socks and onto the New YS &YS Yeti boots, this is so cool, as only recently did I delete some Yeti boots from 2006-7 ish. They come in a lovely range of colours. Yeti boots are so much fun, not just because they look great, but who can not chuckle at the idea of boots made from Yeti fur…the idea that man has never caught one, but we managed to make shoes from them none the less.

    The tops I am wearing come from Fri.day, the one on the left being the newer Rhapsody tunic, this is a two layered look, with the top layer having only one strap and a cute puffed sleeve attachment. I was impressed with the info in the pack letting you know that with all avs being different sizes, you may need to do some editing on the sleeve and that your AO ‘may’ effect it’s movement, due to the inability to do afull shoulder covering because of the one arm template. Many don’t realise that is how clothing is done, so that info is really nice to have provided. Another part of the top that I love is the belt, the thin mid torso belt is perfect for high waist skirts or anything really, adding an extra accent to a look, so worth the tops purchase just for the belt.

    The fluffy furry stole I have on over the Dion shirt is from SDB, this stole is NOT mod though, my version isn’t anyway, so you will have to pray to the heavens that it fits. I am not sure if that is still the case with the item in the store, but yes, it’s a really pretty item, but unfortunatly with no glitch and no mod, it is not going to fit all. So if your breasts are bigger than a 65 and your larger than I look, be warned.

    Speaking of warnings, the fun antlers I am wearing need a big tag hanging from them saying DON’T TOUCH MEEEE – watch that youtube it is adorable – but back to antlers lol. These come with emotes built in, so if someone clicks on you, well all sorts of things could happen in open chat, but thank goodness they do have a lock option, and they sparkle and look fabulous, and you know you want to find out what they say, let’s just put it this way. If I wasn’t partnered and Newdoll wasn’t partnered, we would have to get married now.

    I have used and added another stock image to the Second Life Stock Images Group, some incredible photos have been added for people to use, I cannot wait to play with some myself. If you do use them, please mention it in comments, it is an amazing thing to know your images are helping others with their pics.

    I think jeans lovers of the grid rejoiced when Bela Tolsen hit the grid. I have said it before, and it only gets proved every release, the woman really knows how to do pattern work with pants, and the jeans in this post are all incredible. Even if you are not into the overly patterned, there is so much range in her prints that there is bound to be something that catches your eye. I could seriously stay in the grey stiched pair near the window for yonks.

    Also wonderful to have as a staple, and I do love that these are solids not prints, the off shoulder tops, also from Tutti Frutti. A little raised on one side, perfectly styled for off the shoulders, and also a great piece to do layered looks with. I decided to keep it simple today though, some ElikaTira hairstyles – please Elika may we have some MOOOORRRREEEEE.

    Shying away from the sun, in the new Glam Affair skin Jadis, in the Yuki pale edition. Different brows to choose from, and option of with or without hair base.The hair base is a creamier white than usual, so you will have to be careful when choosing hair attachments, yay for demos. I opted for the full styles though, and with the brow options going to black it was a no brainer really. There is even a no brow option for those that wear tattoo options.

    More of the Jadis to come in other darker tones, so don’t worry you don’t miss out if you don’t go for a paler skin. This one is lovely though, and the make ups are delightful. Not only am I taking the Tee*fy flats for another spin, I am also wearing the yummy and snuggly scarf that is another item at the Albero Dollar Market, these items are made as transfer for gift purchases for Christmas, so don’t miss out.

    We are nearly halfway through Novemeber already, can you believe it? This year has flown, and yes we say that kind of thing every year, but this one just got crazy manic. With the amount of events, and ‘things’ on each and every week, there just didn’t seem to be a down time at all, you know those weeks that go on endlessly and we all anticipate the next big thing…I miss those boring weeks lol.

    A mix of design houses today, in the form of LG Concept and Nyte n day. The jeans I have on both me’s are from LG Concept Femme, and they are really lovely, I especially like the patch work ones, I do admit to it taking a few hours for me to realise that the patches are in fact very religious in nature. But they say you wear your heart on your sleeve, so why not your religion on your pants . The Puiqe set from Nyte n Day is so darling, that it can be worn as a beautiful off the shoulder top, or as the all in one with so sexy flippy skirt. Another great recent item from Nyte n Day is the Capu Hoodie, this hoodie is so soft looking I could spend all day in it for reals. An added bonus is the length of the sleeves.

    You may notice I am wearing the new Slink Jolie Hands, yes amazing sculpted hands. These end up at the mid forearm, and while the hud is so easy to use, and you do also have the option of jewelry to hid the seam, sleeves of this length with prims makes it perfect. Not only do you get wonderful nail polish options, but it also now comes with a nailpolish hud for tinting which means colours are endless. Other adorable accessories are the great glasses I am wearing from DECO, both the buddy and cats meow are fun to wear and come in a great variety of colours. It is wonderful having such a good range of real sculpted glasses nowadays.

    The new boots I have on are the latest from Courtisane, and come in so many lovely colours, these are some of my favourites available and as usual Enktan of Enkythings built these beautifully. A great way to show off – finally – the Eva skins from Glam Affair is the new Vishe lingerie from Nyte n Day. Tanks long and short, as well as bra options are all great. The Eva skin has a wonderfully youthful look, with incredibly gorgeous pouty lips and beautiful make ups. All topped off with wonderful styles from Magika, that woman is a hair making machine, I cannot wait for more more more.
