On The Threshold

We are finally on the threshold of Hair Fair 2017. It starts in just a few hours (midnight, if I’m not mistaken). In the meantime, I have a couple of things you can do to keep you occupied.

First, visit Japonica. This is a themed event that celebrates the Japanese culture. The Niche dress from Salt & Pepper is a beautiful example. The flowers across the bodice preserve your modesty, despite the sheer top. The dress can be purchased in either single colours and of course, the amazing fatpack. The flowers are colour-change via HUD and with the fatpack you can mix and match the tones of the bodice, waist and skirt for your favourite combination.

After you have completed your shopping excursion, you need to join the free Hair Fair demo group, to get you ready for your shopping spree. To join, copy and paste the following into local chat in Second Life and join the Hair Fair DEMO Group

secondlife:///app/group/2e30d166-f3e5-e2de-ff72-b3da2d06ded2/about

The designers are loading this group so you can choose your favourites before heading out to shop. With four full sims, that’s a lot of designers and a lot of demos! Best of all, a portion of all proceeds go to Wigs for Kids, a fabulous charity that donates wigs to children with illnesses or treatments that cause hair loss. Hair Fair is a wonderful way to feel good about spending your money, knowing that you will be helping to make a difference in a child’s life.

Step over the threshold; you have things to do.

Before & After

1-before-sm

We have all had those moments, when we are so exhausted we just have to have to sit and rest. Head dropped for whatever support can be found, eyes barely held open. It is a “before” image that is simply borne of exhaustion.

1-after-sm

But following a refreshing pause, with a toss of the hair and a swing to the hips, it is an “after” of epic proportions. Calm, confident and in control.

The Before & After hair is from .:EMO-tions:., available at The Liaison Collaborative in March. It is two separate styles for two different moods. And it is fabulous.

My gorgeous shoes are a gacha prize from fri.day at the March round of The Arcade. They work so well with jeans or a pair of straight-leg trousers that you really must play until you win every colour.

I am once again sporting the Freya skin by *Birth*, coming to Skin Fair 2017. I am driving home a point here, ladies; you really need to try this skin!

It will be a transformative Before and After when you do.

Sleeping Off The…

1-sleeping-off-the-sm

After visiting MadPea International Food Fair, you’ll need a bit of time to recuperate. The event not only features amazing food items, but clothing and accessories, too. This little cherry lip ring from Vengeful Threads is a subtle way to show your support and the printed tees from [high v.] are just too much fun to miss.

Hush…do not disturb. I am sleeping off the bacon, beer and beards.
